Amazing yes brilliant! This is going to be great arc from looks of it. Also this tells Vegeta is not going to ply that important role because he is not there. I love it! Serves him right

Oh no Future Mai!!!
... wait a second, right I actually don't give a crap about her since she was there for just one single episode and doesn't serve any purpose at all.
Last (filler) arc we had evil Vegeta and now we have evil Goku, so different!

That one earring.. a kai earring? How curious. I hope this black goku has an interesting story.


i already figured it out. it is just goku and he is pissed because chichi forced him to diet because the future don't have enough food if he keeps eating, so now he seeks revenge on all living things in the future because they eat his food.

sounds legit to me, well except that both chichi and goku is dead in that time but i like my version of black goku's backstory haha


makes perfect sense to me!

YES, this is how DB Super shouldve been from the start not rehashing movies and a subpar tournament.
I got Chrono Trigger vibes from this episode.
Black is really brutal killing Bulma and Mai in just few minutes.
Im officially hyped.

This was a great intro to the new arc, I'm excited about this one! I was hoping to see more of future Mai though :(

I wonder, will Black Goku have Super Saiyan God powers as well? He seemed to have more than enough destructive power in his base form.

Also, who has the other Potara earring?!!

This episode was great.
Seriousness was so much needed in this show, I must admit I didn't enjoy DBS as much I wanted too because of that.
Only thing that is missing now is real battle damage, I don't know what is happening here, did they forgot how to draw blood, idk...

Black Goku looks badass! I kinda hope that he somehow tricks real Goku and fuse with him. It would be really interesting/different to see how would that play out when the villain is Goku and there is no "other" Goku to deal with it. imo

You know... if this picture bears any significant meaning, then I propose the possibility that Black and the other guy with the Potara earring might be a single entity, kinda like Fat Buu (this unknown new person) who released Evil Buu (Black) back then.

Otherwise, how would you explain both of them wore earrings on opposing sides?

Seeing Future Mai present among the big five gave me hope that we will see more of her in the future episodes. Come on, you don't want to waste a great character in just one episode.

Haha I can't agree more, the CT vibes are indeed strong in this one, in fact, the Future trio do have some allusions to the CT cast.

Trunks - Crono (sword wielding)
Bulma - Lucca (inventor)
Mai - Marle (ranged attacker)

How is Mai a young adult in the parallel future if the Kami of that timeline was killed before Pilaf's gang would've made the wish in the first place.

hahahahahahahaha, #anime.... maybe that's why she died episode 1 of the new arc, she was a major plot hole, cleaning up toriyama's mess

Damn Toriyama, back at it again with the plot holes


strange, people are saying this is what they have been waiting for, this is DB. The vibe I got from Trunks world was the writer trying something a little new. But you guys are talking about what happened in the main world, I got that healthy vibe too <3

Sigh. It's already seems too obvious that the dark goku and the new green woman are gonna earring fused with each other to " power up" eventually thanks to that one picture,only thing that throws me off is the color of those earrings. Someone prove my theory wrong.

And I already see Mai not doing much fighting in this arc because her power level is inconviently low so what could be her purpose for this arc? Why is she needed?

she served her purpose for now. she was there to show that trunks had his special someone and for some reason akira toriyama thinks that trunks didnt suffer enough, so he didnt just kill bulma but also mai.


its true that it doesnt make any sense that there is a young mai there (maybe as an old hag? pilafs gang always proved that they can survive anything...)
then again idk how much we could gain by questioning stuff in a fantasy story, where 7 balls can summon a dragon that fullfills any wish you may have....

It took DB Super 46 episodes to actually get me excited about something. I've been sticking with the show in hopes of seeing something brilliant at some point. I hope they do something epic with this saga.

Quite dark and intense for a new arc. Is future Mai really dead..!?? Shucks because she was a badass and looks really cool with a shotgun compared to Mai as Pilaf's henchman and I wanna see more of her (╥﹏╥)

So the King of All is the true almighty god in db universe..!?? Because although he couldn't fight, he's able to wipe an entire universe in a blink according to Whiz. I hope there won't be any other "stronger" being than him, otherwise he's just gonna turned into complete joke ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Does anyone else think it might be vegito? Maybe at some point in other world vegeta and goku meet the supreme Kai's and they use the earrings to fuse. Perhaps Vegitas evil nature took over and they find a way back to the living world.

makes perfect sense to me!


jokes aside, i think it might be the kai earing and that it is some bad guy who hates saiyans who used it to fuse with a saiyan to gain there warrior body and use it to kill them. either fused a weak person and dominated his personality so it is only the bad guy or he used some special techniqe so he alone is in comtrol of the body. but this is db super which so far have been something kind of similar to db abridge so there might be some stupid joke backstory.
thats what i like with super, its so unpredictable

Yeah it could really be anything. So many questions, how is it goku or his lookalike when he is long dead in that world? How and why the kai earring? What is this power he seems to have?

I thought maybe they would go and do black water from the future, but again no future goku..

But ahh DB Super, well we just had Vegeta as a villain, so what should we do next.. hmm ahh oh I know! Goku!

She is useless here, why did they bother to feature an impossibly 17year old Mai in a parralel world supposed to be more than 40 years after her real youth?

RIP Mai T__T You were beautiful again, but it was cut so short!! I'm seriously bummed about that. Since she was in the intro I though she was going to be a prominent character...

But yeah, I remember thinking, "How is this already the best episode of Super??" near the beginning, and the Goku reveal at the end was epic! Harvesting competition was some high quality DB shenanigannery; overall awesome episode.

I honestly love that about Super. If you ask me what the Naruto theme song is, I couldn't tell you. If you ask wht the Dragon Ball Z theme song is, you KNOW it's Head Cha La. Obviously I don't know if this one will change in the future, but at this point I can still regard Cho Zetsu Dynamic as that iconic theme song for Super, and that's a nice feeling.

Trunks is running.
What is that creature?
Bulma.
Isn't that the machine she had Monaka help her with.
One way?
Mai is waiting for Trunks?
Dat explosion.
Something has Bulma.
Bulma is dead?
Dat flashback. Good times.
Chichi just pushed Piccolo. She fears noone.
Kuririn appears.
Vegeta went to Beers world without Goku.
lol at Goku checking on them with Instantaneous Movement.
LMAO Goku dipped.
WTF! Mai!
Mai just referred to Bulma as san. lol
Black bastard? Trunks is racist?
To the past.
There were 18 universes.
The cat.
Trunk learned how to do a slash attack with his sword. It can also block blast attacks.
Mai is dead.
Goku?????

Motherfuckers spoiled the surprise in the opening. smh Also, funny that the previous episode was about clone Vegeta, now its another Goku.

Not gonna lie, I was a tad distracted by Trunks' sudden change in hair, like I'm just suppose to accept that it was blue all along and my memories were a lie!? But seriously, this was really good introduction to the arc, I love the set dressing in Trunks story. People complain about Mai but with the segments with her & Bulma we get a good idea of just what Trunks' life has been like, and I love stuff like that little cat. And I really like the decision of contrasting Trunks' tense-filled life-threatening situation with the typical Super silliness of our timeline.

It's nice to have dramatic stakes back in Dragon Ball. The way they adapted Battle of Gods mostly removed them, Resurrection of 'F' never had them to begin with, and Universe 6's stakes were intentionally inconsequential, so it's nice to have a villainous antagonist and something with a dramatic pulse back into the series.

This looks really promising for sure!
Sad to see Mai and Bulma die already even if it's in an alternate future timeline.

I'm honestly surprised "Black" is Goku, seeing as this is the same Trunks from DBZ and Goku supposedly died from the a virus back then.
Im so excited to see learn about "Black's" backstory.

Also cute to see Mai and Trunks hook up in this timeline, seeing as they showed some cute scenes during Beerus' arc.

Sean Schemmel sounds so good as Goku Black, holy crap.

Also, it's cool seeing Mai taking an active role in the plot, despite dying just a few minutes later. That being said, she's gotta be in her 60s or 70s by now. It's weird seeing her paired up with Trunks, even if she was de-aged and had those brief moments during Resurrection F. Alternate timelines really are a recipe for crazy shenanigans, huh.
