Just a special, right? Not an ongoing X00 episode series, right?

OK.

*breathes a sigh of relief*

New Dragon Ball animation!! It's been over ten years since we've seen anything dragon ball-related animated, so this is great, great news as a DB fan.

Worldwide, especially in the US and Japan, Dragon Ball is still a very hot commodity, so it was only a matter of time before new Dragon Ball projects would arise.

Perhaps they'll animate that One Piece/Dragon Ball manga crossover Cross Epoch? That would be awesome indeed.

Don't know if want.

I'll be interested to see what the quality of animation is and whether or not I'll have to wait a few years to see a domestic release but I think I'm looking forward to seeing it, just a little bit.

The magazine also hints that at least one other title will also be animated.


I really hope it isn't Naruto or Bleach otherwise I'm not looking forward to it. It should be another old popular classic like DB and OP.

I would die (in a good way) if they decided to do another Dragonball series.

One Piece is considered "old" and "classic"? It's only 11 years old, I don't think it falls into either category. >.>

Looks like it to me.

They should use this as an opportunity to finally do Kakashi Gaiden Crying or Very sad

Japan tends to go through franchises much faster than we do. For a series to remain popular for even five years is really impressive. OP's popularity has remained at the top of the manga industry for a decade now. That's quite a feat, which only DB has matched (as far as Jump series go anyway.)

Now, as for which series gets the other special, my money's on Fist of the North Star. It's probably the only other Jump series to reach that level of popularity. It could also be Jojo, though, due to its longevity.

For some reason I have a feeling that this new DragonBall animation is going to suck... but I can't wait for it! I really hope that the unannounced isn't Bleach, I'm getting so sick of that and Naruto, but One Piece, I'll always love. Very Happy
