so this entire series takes place before DBZ's epilogue but after the movie?this is kinda confusing...
Timeline: Fukkatsu no F -> Dragon Ball Super -> Uub appearance and 28th Tournament.I don't know why, but I have a feeling about DB Super will have very few episodes O_O
DKDC said, June 14, 2015, 07:26:22 pmThat being said, if 3 years did pass between the first and second God movies, there should be less than 2 years before the original epilogue, so there's a chance this DBSuper series will go beyond the original Uub fight.your post confused me! the 28th tournament happend ten years after the Buu Arc, there should be 7 years between the events of this series and the tournament.
Kid Buu's deathBattle of Gods : Videl is pregnant, Bills says he'll sleep for 3 more yearsResurrectionDragon Ball Super goes hereUub tournament : Pan is 4 years oldUnless Bills wakes up early in Resurrection, then Pan is a bit over 2 years old during Resurrection. That means there is less than 2 years from Resurrection to the Uub tournament. And either way, since Videl is pregnant, Battle of Gods happens less than 5 years before the Uub tournament.In the first place, if Pan is 4 during the Uub tournament and the Uub tournament happens 10 years after Kid Buu's death, then Goten and Trunks should have already been somewhere between 12 and 14 years old during Battle of Gods. They should have looked a bit older than they did during the Buu Saga. It worked well for Gohan, growing up between Namek, Freeza's return, the Android Saga, and the Cell Saga. But somehow they forgot to update the look of the kids for the Gods movie, then in the Resurrection movie (though I don't even know if they show up there), and clearly, still not here. But we know they look tall during the Uub tournament.So I'm saying, someone screwed up and/or got a bit lazy on that.
There's three years between the Goku/Ten Shin Han tournament & death of King Piccolo and the Piccolo Jr./Goku tournament. But yeah, good point. Although it completely didn't happen with Gohan, so we might fall in the "it's true for a full blooded Saiyan but not for a half-blooded one" and Goten is half Saiyan... In short, I'm not completely convinced. It just feels weird.Oh, especially because of Future Trunks. He was something like 13 during the first part of the Android attack, when Future Gohan dies (and then further when Future Trunks uses the time machine for the first time), and he was already much taller than Trunks in the Gods movie (who should already be around the same age). That fits with how much Cell Saga Gohan grew.
Wait does that mean Fukkatsu no F is irrelevant to this show? I was already barely understanding why they were making a new series that occur before the end of the manga, but now they simply decide to have this series occur before even Fukkatsu no F? Is it to not make people mad and give Goku and Vegeta their old suits? Or is it simply because they don't wanna use Ssjgodss ? In that case why even create it? Ugh what were they thinking. Plus it seems we are getting a multiverse plot-line like BoG teased which imo will quickly get boring. Oh well I'll still watch it but I will drop it if it ever star to get boring.
I'm pretty sure the series happens after Resurrection. It was most likely created specifically to lead into the new series, in fact. My guess is, Battle of Gods was a "test" just for something Toriyama wanted to make, and when it worked, they decided to make a series about Bills and the whole multiverse, but they didn't want to limit themselves with the conditions they came up with for SSGod.For the costumes, we've already seen Goku and Vegeta wear the new ones for the series, so maybe it'll span a long period of time that starts before the movies but quickly moves on to after the movies ? Krillin's, Gohan's, Videl's design there are the ones from the Gods movie too, right ?
First episode summary from http://www.orendsrange.com/2015/06/dragon-ball-super-additional-plot.html said:Peace is back after Majin Buu's defeat. Because of this, Chi-Chi orders Goku to work in order to have money, but Goku wants to train even more. Meanwhile, Goten is on a journey with Trunks to find a present for his future sister-in-law Videl.Ooh, so it starts right after Kid Buu's defeat and before the movies, okay, that explains the outfits in the visuals. And there's still a chance to see the kids grow, and of course, considering they already showed that Goku's Resurrection outfit would show up, it should span across the whole of the 10 years before the Uub tournament.It's just a question of how long it will take to get past the two movies, then.

That Super Saiyan God Super Shun Goku Satsu Saiyan nonsense shouldn't be perpetuated. Let's just stick to enjoy Toriyama's celebration of his fan favorite creations.

But it's still a fact that Goku's latest movie outfit was shown (well, for the manga at least, but I don't see why it would be different, that'd just be weird). Plus Bills and Whis are in anyway.walt said, June 17, 2015, 10:18:50 pmLet's just stick to enjoy Toriyama's celebration of his fan favorite creations.But the whole God thing is exactly what Toriyama wants to do with it.
