Fusion owns and I hope we get an episode with Gogeta and Gotenks double-father-sonning it up.

Then the moms can fuse into Chilma (chill ma get it ahhaha) for the ultimate metafamily slice of life episode.

So, much like the real show

Not really; while Goku usually saves the day in the show, he doesn't do it so frequently that it becomes obnoxious. Goku/Piccolo vs Raditz (which was only made possible by Gohan) and Gohan vs. Cell come to mind. Also, even though Goku beat Buu with the spirit bomb, Goku was never really able to deal with him in a fight unless he merged with Vegeta (and Gohan was the only one able to handle post-fat Buu by himself/unfused).

Also, I take back what I said about it being good that Gohan decided to become a normal person post-DBZ. In the universe of DBZ, where some super strong Earth/universe-threatening bad-guy shows up once every few years, it's actually kind of irresponsible and morally wrong to not train all the time if you're one of the handful of people (literally 5) capable of repelling such a threat.

Toei Animation announced on Friday that voice actor Naoki Tatsuta will temporarily replace Jouji Yanami as both North Kaiō and the Narrator in the Dragon Ball Super television anime series. Tatsuta is replacing Yanami so that Yanami can undergo medical treatment. The announcement did not specify the reason for the treatment. Tatsuta will replace Yanami starting with the show's 12th episode, which will air on September 27.

It's still important for Gohan to research and put out a book on approaching ki manipulation in a scientific manner so there will be fewer future Mark Satans.

Yeah and each of those times after Cell he ends up being completely useless for them. He's like Bulma in that his contributions are huge but have nothing to do with fighting. If they end up going the DB Online route (was that supposed to be canon? I forget) then Gohan helped the world to the point that everyone can fight off these universe ending bad guys.

Super seems to be capping off plot points from the Buu saga it seems. Between Vegeta finally taking Trunks to the park in the anime, the defusion, and to a degree even King Kai complaining about never getting wished back to life we seem to be getting callbacks to everything except Uub.

It was until Toei decided 'actually lets try this movie thing, see how it goes', and now its kinda up in the air, with elements from it in Xenoverse but not clear on how they relate if at all. The big strike against it is that Japan is the primary audience for Dragonball, but Online never even reached their shores before the project was axed. And when they're putting out new material that's directly feeding that audience, I doubt anyone is doubt concerned with leaving room for a relatively obscure MMO.

I like to use the Rule of Cool in this case and consider it the actual end of his character. Stuff like Xenoverse calling GT an alternate timeline and Trunks fighting off Buu in his own timeline in Heroes are other stuff I'll always consider canon, even if they get contradicted eventually.

I didn't mind the regeneration of Cell. It gave us moments like when the ginger android tears his tail off or when Vegeta blows a hole in him or when Goku blows his entire torso clean off. Or the fact that he returns after ~Gokus Heroic Sacrifice~ and Gohan has to step up and do that awesome kamehameha duel

All cool moments

I am strangely inclined to agree since they must know about it at this point and it would take only one letter to end it.

OR they are afraid one letter wouldn't be enough and aren't willing to go to court over this.

Lot's of Funimation people love DBZA, and while they can't officially endorse it, they can turn a blind eye. Toei either doesn't know or doesn't care as long as they indirectly get sales.

I think the fact that DBZA is obviously a project made by people loving the source material and still showing it in a good light helps, If it would have been negative and mocking I doubt they would be as lenient.

Can't have a callback to something that hasn't happened yet. Uub first appears in the epilogue of DragonBall Z, which takes place 10 years after Kid Buu is defeated. Super takes place 6 months after.

There is also the issue where Bulma reams out Goku for not coming to see them for at least 5 years, so we have about 4 1/2 years for Super to take place during.
