Dragon Ball Super First Look At Son Gohan

Dragon Ball Z Kai or Dragon Ball Kai as it's known in Japan is currently winding down the Evil Majin Buu Arc overseas. For those unfamiliar, Kai is the retelling of the original Dragon Ball Z anime in a more condensed, filler free format. For example, the entire Kai series will consist of 167 episodes, whereas the original Dragon Ball Z anime series consists of 291 episodes. The new Dragon Ball Super anime series will begin on July 5th, meaning that it will begin airing right when Kai's Majin Buu Arc ends.

It appears that as Kai winds down, the closing credits will provide glimpses of what's to come in Super.  Case in point, the Dragon Ball Super twitter account has a snapshot from the most recent episode of Kai's ED which provided a glimpse of storyboard art for Super's ED.

The concept of 'Super' was partially developed by original Dragon Ball creator Akira Toriyama. A companion manga for Dragon Ball Super will also be published by manga artist Toyotarō, with Toriyama providing initial concept sketches.

@Syringe

The new movies already have and this is a continuation of those.

@Syringe agreed. My all-time favorite episode is when Gohan finally goes SSJ2 and beats Cell's ass. That moment was years in the making.

Goku is all that matters :-P... as long as they don't change him back into a kid... that was awkward.....

So pretty much what he looked like in Ressurection of F?!? Okay. Just glad Vegita will be getting some serious screen time again and he's actually equal to Goku

@DAGuess - Agreed!!!! After that, as cool as anything else was it just couldn't top that moment!!

I mean seriously, the guy can't even turn Super Saiyan 2 as of the new movie. Hell, he wasn't even really in his Mystic form either in BoG. They made him a regular Super Saiyan then made him look more like his Mystic self after fan backlash.

Not that it matters much as everyone who's not a God now is useless. Just like how everyone who wasn't a Super Saiyan became useless around the Cell arc.

Really, they should've invested in a GOOD live action Dragon Ball Z… It could've been a better trilogy than the matrix.
They half assed the last one and killed any kind of love for DBZ… But I still think if they follow the DBZ saga in a trilogy style format, we can still get an amazing DBZ live action movie. Start with the Saiyens, Raditz at the beginning of the first movie shows up and then Napa and Vageta show up and they are the finally of the first movie. Second could be the Freeza saga with Freeza and the Genyu Force. The 3rd could be the Cell and Android saga. If all those happen they can end on MajinBu saga. 4 movies that could've been done on a MCU, Avatar type level.

I wish Gohan was more powerful again. It's not right to just focus on Goku and Vegeta all the time. In fact I want future trunks to come back too.

@NightsKing, i have 27 minutes of it subbed but the rest is impossible to find, gonna have to wait 2 months i guess...

The direction of this Animation is absolutely brilliant, but PLEASE, no more of this:

That looks like Gt Gohan...that's not good.

To be fair he literally looked like that at the end of Z. Hopefully we'll see him train again, since he has a daughter, Pan and she's getting into martial arts, makes sense for him to get back into training to teach her

Can't muster an ounce of passion about Dragonball anymore. (Except for Abridged, which is amazing.)

I would love for yamcha and tien to be villians. They are so useless now that i would be a nice change of pace.

Here I was hoping they'd bring back the Gohan from Cell Saga. He was my favorite character til the turned him into SaiyanMan.

Looks weird but I have faith Gohan has always been my favourite character in the series.

Would Gohan be in college during this series? How long after Z does it take place?

The writers of Dragon ball Z missed a huge opportunity after the Cell saga. They once again bring back Goku making death and sacrifice absolutely meaningless at that point. They had this great Character in Gohan. Someone they'd built up through the seasons as having this big hidden potential. And brought it out in this huge victory over Cell. This would have been a perfect time for a changing of the guard. A perfect time for Goku to pass the Reins to Gohan as earths greatest protector. But nope they make him a lame ass
