| 1. The World Peace Prize. Who's Getting the 100 Million Zeni?! Original Airdate: July 5, 2015 Six months have passed since the climactic battle with Majin Buu and the Earth is at peace. In an effort to make a living Goku has begun working the fields, while Goten seeks a wedding gift for his new sister-in-law Videl. When Mr. Satan receives the world peace prize along with a substantial amount of cash he gives the money to Goku. With it, Chi Chi allows her husband to leave the fields and visit King Kai. Elsewhere, Kibito Kai senses the destruction of another planet at the hands of Beerus, God of Destruction. A new Dragon Ball series is upon us! Rejoice! :D While it's likely no surprise, I loved our first outing. It had a much slower, slice of life feel, but then I love slice of life anime. Seeing Goten spend time with his dad was very nice. We didn't get much of that at the end of Z. I was a bit surprised to see Gohan has already moved out but...why not? :D It looks like Chi Chi has already shifted her attention to her younger son. Good on Videl, playing along with Goten's gift, always liked her. Goten and Trunk's brief fight with the snake was enjoyable enough, but the best part of the episode was, of course, Buu!:D Satan was walking quite the tightrope denying him food...in public. In private we all know who's boss. And what's Dragon Ball without a little random perversion from Master Roshi? :D Finally, we saw Beerus, God of Destruction. In Battle of Gods he's supposed to be sleeping right now, thus confirming this series intends to re-tell those events. It was a brief but enjoyable appearance, and went as you might expect. Moving onto the opening and ending I enjoyed the visuals for both. Our cast overview in the op, and Goku with his loved ones in the ed. The songs themselves were just okay. I suspect they'll grow on me over time. I did love that brief instrumental portion of the op's refrain that played over the title card. But yeah, new Dragon Ball in 2015. It feels so weird but good to see these characters with a more modern look, but I look forward to more! :D Rating: 7/7 This Week in Buu: In addition to being in the op and ed Buu crashes Mr. Satan's press conference in search of food. He's also in the second mid-card, which seems to focus on Satan's family. Did You Notice?: We see two of Mr. Satan's Cell Games Era lackeys this episode, Piiza and Caroni. Also, the figure on the Zeni is Akira Toriyama's well known stand-in, the Tori-Bot. Next: Vegeta takes a vacation, hilarity ensues. |
| Absolutely loved this episode! Goku in a tractor was LOL and then Goten started driving 0_0 Picollo stalker much? The second half was absolutely adorable Trunks and Goten are so cute! also poor snake xD Good job Satan now Goku can go train with Kaio and Chichi is going to make Goten study, poor boy. Next episode will be pretty funny Vegeta, Bulma and Trunks in a family trip! |
 |
| Oh this was a great episode. Picollo's disapproval at seeing Gohan and Videl walking happily. He's just discontent because Gohan stopped training, but I bet Picollo would be the one to accompany Gohan to the wedding. The OP was nice. SSJ 3 Goku was shown along with Mystic Gohan powering up, and Gohan was also fighting. Goten/Trunks those rascals. They literally gave Videl just water, but to Videl that water was more than just water. Gotta love Videl on that one, she made it look like it was a cosmetic. Speaking of Videl, I'm loving her new look, much better than tomboy Videl back in the Buu arc. Goku takes the easy way out lol Here I was expecting Goku to actually try and grow his radishes or whatever vegetables he planned to grow. Walks in like a boss and opens the briefcase Seto Kaiba style. Chi-Chi is shocked to see Goku bring a whopping 100 millions zeniis to the house. And just like she did to Gohan she wants Goten to become a scholar. Darn that Chi-Chi. More Goku stuff. Since when did Goten learn to use a tractor? Tells his boy to use it while he eats, then he sort of trains and Goten falls off the cliff. No parental supervision present. GG Goku Preview for next episode: Vegeta goes on a trip with his family. I'm looking forward to Vegeta being in public. It's been a while since Vegeta was shown in regular clothes. Last I remembered was back when he had the pink shirt on lol |
 |
| I really hope they keep up these slice-of-life episodes for a bit longer. The show started off with a great first episode. Next week we get Vegeta's big adventure that is going to be hilarious. |
 |
| Im just gonna go cry and rate this 10/10 fuck it. |
| ^Why are you watching this series lol. This first episode is what Dragon Ball was at it's core. It's an awesome way to start the series. If you aren't fond of comedy or the lighthearted approach it takes then you probably wont enjoy Super. Not everything is about powerlevels. If you watched closely there's a scene where Goten is about to blast that snake and he gets yelled at by Trunk because he would have killed those people at the hot spring. It's peace time they don't need to go overboard. There will definitely be battles but this is also an integral part of what made DB great. |
|
| Dragon Ball is back! |
| It was okay. A decent start. I like these slice of life moments. They're more entertaining than the actual fights. Trunks' voice was fucking annoying though. |
| Nothing too fancy but I enjoyed it. 4/5 Hope they won't drag the happy life for too long tho. |

Kinda funny to see some minor characters get screen time, yet nothing on Launch yet. I still believe she will at least make a cameo at some point. |
|
| Pretty decent first episode. Nothing really special, but it's just nice to see new Dragon Ball stuff again. I like that they give most ofl the important character a little bit of screen time to re-introduce them, helps people new to the series get into it too. Looking at the preview for episode 2, it seems like they're going to keep the pacing up and we'll be getting a bit of action. I want to start watching this with English dubs, though. The Japanese voices just aren't great. |
| So as far as I can tell this will be a remake of BoG movie? Any official information on this? |
| Amazing episode 10/10 Good ol' master Roshi being master Roshi XD This new dragon ball series did not dissapoint |

| So there will be fighting scenes with Beerus even though we saw them in the movie? Man I would've loved to see what potential Goten has, at his age already super saiyan...If only he would train like Goku used to... But yeah Chi-Chi forcing him to study... I'd love to see Vegeta surpassing Goku at some point but of course in the end Goku again surpasses Vegeta. Won't rate because it doesn't make sense to rate it after 1 episode. At least after one arc finishes, then I'll rate it. |
Ophis said: Dizzee said: So as far as I can tell this will be a remake of BoG movie? Any official information on this? Only the first arc is a remake of the movie. Second arc will be Resurrection F and from there on we're off to new stuff. No word on how long these arcs will be though. Oh this is awesome. I hope those first 100 episodes they said won't be both Beerus and Frieza arcs. |
| OMG! I loved it! Comedy was on point! It was cool how Beerus was able to destroy the planet in half with just a tap lol Majin Buu interrupting the press conference.. haha Also if everyone forgot about Majin Buu why would he be getting world peace prize for beating him? lol And ZOMG! I'm used to FUNimation dub and Fat Buu has the cutest voice.. here he is so scary! Nice of Videl to be so polite about getting a bottle of water as a wedding gift xD And the ending with Roshi was percfect! Loved it! And shiiii~ Chi-Chi doesn't care if Goku isn't around a lot anymore now that she has money... WOW! |
| ChiChi is absolutely the strongest person in the universe. If I could sum up this episode in one word, it would be: nostalgic. I'm not sure what to expect - but regardless, I am sure it will be enjoyable. :) |
| What a good start. Animation is awesome, improved quality but still with that old DB vibe. So glad to have this series back |
| op was ok, does not have the instant "oh shit dbz time" vibe ed is pure nostalgia pretty good first episode still cannot believe i am actually watching a new dragonball series |
| Yes Dragon Ball is back! My very first Anime is back! And it's a if I'm going back on my childhood days! The animation was just like their usual style in BBZ Kai but I'm a bit intrigued with the new characters will join them or even their enemies. The OP song and it's animation was great as always. And the ED was good too. I'll be definitely watching it every week. Too bad there's only few people watching this. Well I guess It can't be helped. Because they are too old or grown ups now for this. |
| Haters always gonna hate. |
| I can't wait to watch the dub, I don't mind Goku's original voice, but I really want to hear the glorious dub voice of Beerus'. |
| 日本人はイッちゃってるよ あいつら未来に生きてんな |
| Bow to your king, peasants. The King of all Anime, returns. 1000000000/10. Couldn't ask for more, so nostalgic, so amazing.. I feel like a kiddo again. Welcome back Goku and the Z Fighters, I hope you all take us on a long ride again! |
| Nice to see goten and trunks, they were missed in the last movie. This episode was alright, a bit of a slice of life for some of the Z warriors. Next episode will be good since Vegeta will be in it. |
Rukodaime said: It was average. Really average. I mean, I do not have a problem with the characters spending some quality time together. Even though, it has never been the strong point of DBZ. But, during this episode, the worst part was how they handle Goten and Trunk. Why, after fighting with Buu and being stronger than him, they are currently been reduced to some weak kids ? I mean... When Goten is in the trackor, why Goten needs some help from Goku ? He can not get out the and catch it ? And why, during the fight with the dinosaurs, do they need to avoid its attack ? And why Trunks need to hit it ten times just to make it go away ? (not even stunning him). And at the end, they got some bruises ? From this fight ? Even Gohan, during his trainning with Piccolo, was able to handle a dinosaur and his strenght was below 1 000 at this time. I find that so stupid when, out of nowhere, the characters become weak... even if it was just for comedy purpose... (and I'm sorry but playing catch with a dinosaur is NOT funny). Hopefully, we will get some actual fight soon... Dude, seriously.. What the f. do you expect? First episode and thousands of planets blowing up? Universal fights? Jeez, lighten the f. up. |

But he's got a point... It's stupid they weren't able to handle dinosaur or snake or w/e that thing was... And yet they are 10000x times stronger then Gohan and Goku were that age. |
| Nice first episode and this one develop more from the first chapter and it was nice seeing almost everyone back.Piccolo was just random watching Gohan and Videl and of course the ending of Muten Roshi going to Goku's house and want him to buy some ero books for him lol. |

Well they wanted to put SOME SORT of action to this, and that's what DB is most known for. |
| Great first episode. Also enjoyed the OP. |
| Opening song was... plain and simple... I wish it more rock type with some fighting scenes. Dragon Ball Kai has great opening. |
| Decent first episode, still, listening to the voices, I'd rather wait for the dub. |
"You either die an Ashita no Joe, or you live long enough to see yourself become a Naruto."  |
| 6/10 and it got the extra point for nostalgia. Lol a Snake should not have been anything but one shotted by Trunks and Goten. That was pretty silly. |
| that cheeky Roshi lol |
| It was an OK episode. I just hope it picks up |
| Wait, is this basically going to be the drawn out version of Battle of Gods? |
 |
| I loved the part with Trunks/Goten and Videl stuff. :) |
 |
| Gohan lookin' fresh to death |

| gohan has power but wastes it just cause he got some p*ssy :( What a goddamn shame, keep training, studying and banging, you don't have to give up one "sigh" That snake is stronger than nappa XD This part in the op was epic <3  |
 |
| Episode was good, the Goten & trunks scene was pretty cute. I loved when Mr. Satan gives Goku the money, and Roshi rushes over and mentions buying porn with it, ahahaha! XD I was a little disappointed at the opening and closing themes, even though the visuals for them were nice. I mean, comparing this theme with "Makafushigi Adventure" or "Cha La Head Cha La", it's just embarrassing... If they weren't going to invite Hironobu-san or Takahashi-san back, then they should have gotten a vocalist who could sufficiently fill their shoes, not some lame artist like Kazuya Yoshii or some lame pop group like Good Morning America. Aside from the lackluster opening & closing, the soundtrack has been good thus far. I like it better than the re-done soundtrack they used in Kai, to be honest. Really excited for the next episode. It's a little odd that Beerus seems to be the main villain, though... considering his role in "Kami to Kami" I wonder if this will be some kind of alternate timeline from the film, or if this simply takes place before that film. I guess we'll have to wait & see... |
::End of Transmission:: What have I been watching? Click here and find out on my viewing blog, "Vigorous Viewing" |
| I like Mr. Satan here, I mean he gave the prize to Goku. Goku's family definitely deserved it, being poor and all, despite what they've done to the planet. At least we can say that they are now financially stable, no longer worrying about where to get money for their needs in their lifetime. Looking forward for the episode 2! (Vegeta) |
| Live the life that you love, Love the life that you live... We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world. - The Buddha |
| Loved it can't wait for next episodes. |
| This is what I expected from Toriyama; Dragon Ball is still growing strong. I am wondering why people have to compare the DB Super manga to the anime? They aren't even that far apart in the dates. |
