New Dragon Ball Super Trailer Soon? The Moro Arc Update — Transcript

Full transcript

1. 0:00Dragon Ball fans, I've got good news and
2. 0:02bad news. The bad news is that one of
3. 0:05the biggest events of the year just
4. 0:06completely disappointed us. We were
5. 0:09expecting massive Dragon Ball Super
6. 0:11announcements, maybe even the remake or
7. 0:13the Moro arc, but instead, Dragon Ball
8. 0:16isn't even there. Yeah, it's honestly
9. 0:18frustrating, but don't leave just yet
10. 0:20because the good news is way bigger. We
11. 0:22might be getting a brand new Dragon Ball
12. 0:24Super remake trailer much sooner than
13. 0:26expected, and there's even new info
14. 0:28about the Moro arc. So, let's break it
15. 0:30all down. Let's start with the bad news
16. 0:32because a lot of you were looking
17. 0:34forward to San Diego Comic-Con this
18. 0:35year. After all the recent Xenoverse 3
19. 0:38news, it finally felt like Dragon Ball
20. 0:40Super's turn to step back into the
21. 0:42spotlight. A lot of us genuinely
22. 0:44believed this would be the event where
23. 0:45Toei would finally start pushing the
24. 0:47remake properly, or maybe even give us
25. 0:49our first real look at the Moro arc. San
26. 0:52Diego Comic-Con has always been one of
27. 0:54those events where huge franchises
28. 0:56[music] reveal massive projects. So,
29. 0:58naturally, everyone expected Dragon Ball
30. 1:00to have some sort of presence there.
31. 1:02Unfortunately, that isn't happening,
32. 1:04bro. The full San Diego Comic-Con
33. 1:06schedule was released over the weekend,
34. 1:08and Dragon Ball is nowhere to be found.
35. 1:11There aren't even any Toei Animation
36. 1:13panels this year. In previous years,
37. 1:15we'd usually get a dedicated Dragon Ball
38. 1:17booth or at least some kind of special
39. 1:19presentation, but this time there isn't
40. 1:22one, just a standard Toei booth. So,
41. 1:24unless Toei somehow pulls off a surprise
42. 1:26announcement out of nowhere, Dragon Ball
43. 1:28simply won't be present at the event.
44. 1:30And honestly, that's really
45. 1:31disappointing. I get that San Diego
46. 1:33Comic-Con is an incredibly expensive
47. 1:36event when it comes to marketing.
48. 1:38Renting space, building booths,
49. 1:39organizing panels, bringing guests,
50. 1:41flying out voice actors and staff, all
51. 1:44of that costs a ridiculous amount of
52. 1:46money. But at the same time, this is
53. 1:48Dragon Ball we're talking about, a
54. 1:50franchise that generates billions of
55. 1:52dollars every single year. Spending
56. 1:54money to market your biggest anime
57. 1:56franchise shouldn't even be a question.
58. 1:59If anything, this is exactly the kind of
59. 2:01event where you want people talking
60. 2:02about Dragon Ball again. Because here's
61. 2:04something a lot of people forget. Not
62. 2:06everyone spends their day on Twitter,
63. 2:08YouTube, or Reddit. A lot of casual fans
64. 2:11only discover new anime projects through
65. 2:13events like Comic-Con. It's free
66. 2:16exposure. Families walk by, anime fans
67. 2:19walk by, gaming fans walk by, and
68. 2:21suddenly they see a huge Dragon Ball
69. 2:24display announcing a brand new remake or
70. 2:27the Moro arc. That's how you bring old
71. 2:29fans back while attracting new ones at
72. 2:31the same time. And that's why I think
73. 2:33skipping San Diego Comic-Con is a missed
74. 2:35opportunity. Toei was honestly doing a
75. 2:38really good job marketing Dragon Ball
76. 2:40Super earlier this year. The leaks were
77. 2:42building hype, the info was slowly
78. 2:44coming out, and people were genuinely
79. 2:46excited again. But right now, it feels
80. 2:48like they're slowly falling back into
81. 2:50their old habits of not promoting Dragon
82. 2:52Ball enough, especially if the reports
83. 2:54about the remake launching around
84. 2:55[music] October are accurate. If that's
85. 2:58really the plan, where is the marketing?
86. 3:00Where are the trailers, [music] the
87. 3:01interviews, the promotional events?
88. 3:03We're getting closer and closer, yet
89. 3:06everything has gone strangely [music]
90. 3:07quiet. Now, before everyone starts
91. 3:09panicking, this is where the good news
92. 3:11begins. Just because Dragon Ball isn't
93. 3:13appearing at San Diego Comic-Con,
94. 3:15doesn't mean we're not getting anything
95. 3:17this month. In fact, I think something
96. 3:19much bigger is about to happen. Dragon
97. 3:21Ball Super [music] Heroes promotion has
98. 3:23officially been confirmed for Fuji TV's
99. 3:26huge summer event [music] called Odaiba
100. 3:28Fan Rising, running from July 25th all
101. 3:31the way until August 23rd. Why does that
102. 3:34matter? Because Toei has done this
103. 3:36before. When Dragon Ball Daima was
104. 3:38getting ready to air, they used this
105. 3:40exact [music] strategy. First announce
106. 3:41Dragon Ball's presence at Fuji TV's
107. 3:43summer event, then drop a brand new
108. 3:45trailer right before it starts. That's
109. 3:48why I genuinely believe history is about
110. 3:50to repeat itself.
111. 3:52If Toei follows the same marketing
112. 3:53strategy they used for Daima, there's a
113. 3:56very good chance we'll be getting
114. 3:57another Dragon Ball Super remake trailer
115. 3:59before Odaiba Fan Rising officially
116. 4:01begins. And honestly, that's the trailer
117. 4:04I'm waiting for the most because the
118. 4:05first trailer mainly focused on Beerus.
119. 4:08This [music] time, I really want to see
120. 4:09Resurrection F. According to multiple
121. 4:12insiders and leakers, the Resurrection F
122. 4:14remake is already completely finished.
123. 4:17Production on that arc is reportedly
124. 4:19done, and it'll begin airing immediately
125. 4:21after the Beerus arc finishes. So,
126. 4:23showing footage from Resurrection F
127. 4:25would make perfect sense, bro. Not only
128. 4:27would it prove the project [music] is
129. 4:29much further along than people think, it
130. 4:31would also give fans confidence that
131. 4:33Toei already has multiple arcs completed
132. 4:35before the anime even starts airing. And
133. 4:38that's exactly the reassurance the
134. 4:39community needs right now. Personally,
135. 4:42with how quiet everything has been
136. 4:43recently, I don't think we're done with
137. 4:45trailers at all. In fact, I'm expecting
138. 4:48at least two more before the remake
139. 4:50officially premieres. The first one
140. 4:52should announce the release date and
141. 4:54show more Beerus footage alongside our
142. 4:56first proper look at Resurrection F.
143. 4:59Then, I think we'll get one final launch
144. 5:01trailer much closer to release, just
145. 5:03like most anime projects do when they're
146. 5:05trying to build up as much hype [music]
147. 5:07as possible before premiere. Now, let's
148. 5:09move on to the Moro arc because we
149. 5:11actually got a small but really exciting
150. 5:13update there as well. According to Anime
151. 5:16Ajay, Vegeta's design in the Moro arc
152. 5:19will apparently combine Toriyama's
153. 5:20classic Buu Saga art style with
154. 5:23Toyotaro's Moro arc design. And
155. 5:25honestly, that sounds incredible. One of
156. 5:27the biggest strengths of Toyotaro's Moro
157. 5:29artwork was how expressive Vegeta looked
158. 5:32throughout the arc. So, mixing that with
159. 5:34Toriyama's cleaner late Z style could
160. 5:37easily give us one of the best-looking
161. 5:39versions of Vegeta we've ever seen in
162. 5:41animation.
163. 5:42So, yeah, they're definitely cooking,
164. 5:44and I I wait to actually see it
165. 5:46animated. Now, the next big event
166. 5:48everyone should keep their eyes on is
167. 5:50New York Comic-Con. Unlike San Diego, I
168. 5:53actually think New York has a much
169. 5:55better chance of featuring Dragon Ball.
170. 5:58If the remake is already airing by then,
171. 6:00I could easily see Toei hosting a Dragon
172. 6:02Ball Super panel where they officially
173. 6:04start talking about the future of the
174. 6:06anime. And that's where I think we'll
175. 6:08finally hear something about the Moro
176. 6:10arc. Don't expect a [music] full trailer
177. 6:12or anything crazy. I think it'll
178. 6:13probably be a teaser, maybe a key
179. 6:16visual, maybe some production updates,
180. 6:18or even just confirmation that work is
181. 6:20progressing smoothly. Something small,
182. 6:22but enough to let everyone know the Moro
183. 6:24arc is officially on the way. And
184. 6:27honestly, that's all we really need
185. 6:28right now. Because once October arrives,
186. 6:31everything changes. A lot of insiders
187. 6:34keep saying the exact same thing. Right
188. 6:36now, this is simply the calm before the
189. 6:38storm.
190. 6:39October is when everything truly begins.
191. 6:42The remake, the marketing, the
192. 6:44interviews, the trailers, the hype, all
193. 6:47of it. And I don't think Toei is going
194. 6:49to hold back once that starts. So, while
195. 6:52San Diego Comic-Con might have been
196. 6:53disappointing, I genuinely don't think
197. 6:55Dragon Ball fans have to wait much
198. 6:57longer. I think we're only a few weeks
199. 7:00away from seeing the next big reveal, so
200. 7:02keep your eyes peeled, bro. Now, it's
201. 7:04time for shout-out time from the
202. 7:05previous video. Barry Smith commented
203. 7:08that he'd love a mini-series focusing
204. 7:10entirely on Xenoverse events. And
205. 7:12honestly, bro, I'd love that, too.
206. 7:15There's so much unexplored lore in
207. 7:17Xenoverse that could easily work as its
208. 7:19own anime or mini-series. I think it'd
209. 7:22be awesome to see the Time Patrol, Fu,
210. 7:24Mira, Towa, and our CAC get more time to
211. 7:27shine outside of the games. Since
212. 7:29there's genuinely a ton of story
213. 7:31potential there that the games have
214. 7:33barely scratched the surface of so far.
215. 7:36So, yeah, that's about it. If you
216. 7:37enjoyed the video, make sure to like it
217. 7:39and subscribe. We're trying to reach
218. 7:4125,000 subscribers, and let me know what
219. 7:44you think down in the comments. Are you
220. 7:46disappointed that Dragon Ball is
221. 7:47skipping San Diego Comic-Con or do you
222. 7:50think Toei is saving everything for the
223. 7:51next trailer? Until next time, take care
224. 7:54and see you.
