bitch please
they've released a DBZ fighting game WITHOUT GOKU before
nobody is sacred
Goku was available with a secret code....but still

Why do people want Arale? I can't see that character translating into a good fighting game character.also she's just a bad character

In terms of U6 Saiyan representation, wouldn't Cabba make more sense? Unless Toei gave ASW some intel, ASW wouldn't have much to go on for Caulifla right now beyond one move (unless they just make shit up). Hell, you could even throw Ultimate Gohan in that slot (older Gohan, potential for different moves, completes the U7 team, etc.) seeing as Hit already reps U6.I'll jump in on roster wishlist/speculation, why not.
"Realistic" expectation for core ~20 character roster:
- Goku
[*]Gohan
[*]Vegeta
[*]Trunks
[*]Frieza
[*]Cell
[*]Buu- Piccolo Jr.
- Krillin
- 18
- Beerus
- Goku Black / Zamasu
- Tenshinhan (Chiaotsu as assist/puppet)
- Gotenks
- Hit
- Roshi
- Caulifla
- 17
- Broly
- Tao
Thoughts:
I would prefer (and sort of expect) there to be a very small number of "alternate versions" of characters compared to other DB games, especially for those versions who are just power-ups without particularly distinct changes in fighting style. As in: I expect SSB Goku to be a transformation technique similar to Golden Frieza, and not a distinct character. Alt forms that are considerably more varied (e.g. Pure Buu, which is basically a different character altogether anyway) are more likely to end up as distinct selectable characters. I expect some amalgamations. Like even though the Trunks revealed for this game is clearly his Android Saga version, I'd expect him to have inherited some techniques from the Future Trunks in DBS before I'd expect DBS Future Trunks to be a distinct character in this game.
The veteran DB characters with the highest likelihood of showing up are those who are also getting a lot of screen time in Super. In other words, I expect the entire Universe 7 team to be playable. Roshi wouldn't be on my list otherwise. Tao is basically a wishlist choice; I don't expect much original DB representation.
I expect minimal GT / movie representation, but this might be more personal bias than anything, really. I'd pick Kale over Broly personally, but the latter is way more likely to show up due to legacy reasons, and with other options available for token Universe 6 representation anyway (Caulifla?), Kale's odds are low.
Gotenks and Vegito are the only likely fusions imo. Gotenks because of moveset potential and because I think it's kind of hard to justify kid Goten or kid Trunks individually. Vegito because of popularity and renewed relevance in Super. I think I'd prefer Vegito to be an in-game combination technique to be used when you have Goku & Vegeta on the same team instead of a distinct, selectable character, but I might be in the minority on that one.
The main thing that would increase the odds of other candidates would be how comprehensive and robust the story mode is for this game. In other words, if there's a concerted effort into lengthening the single-player content, then expect more villains from various eras (Radditz, Nappa, Zarbon, Ginyu, Gero, Dabura, etc.) or movie characters to round out the list. If not, expect more bench-warmers (Yamcha).
On a personal wishlist level, I think I'd like it the best if some joke characters (Bulma, Yajirobe, Satan, Launch, Arale, Puar, whoever) were playable and also somehow broken, 'cause I'd definitely play that shit just to troll.
Well the game is for early 2018, and the tournment starts this weekend, there's time for that.In terms of U6 Saiyan representation, wouldn't Cabba make more sense?

Mukuru, natsume, ruka, IS the ones i found except for mukuru they are Very secondary
True, but unless the guys at ASW are flying by the seat of their pants for the development of the roster, they would have had to decide the base roster a while ago.Well the game is for early 2018, and the tournment starts this weekend, there's time for that.

Good point. Then yeah, fill that slot with Ultimate Gohan.What does Cabba bring to the table again
In that case, I could see Caulifla being a pre-order bonus (because Bandai Namco) or just a general DLC character early on.Pretty sure that I read that the director likes Caulifla, and that informs my expectations a bit.
I wouldn't be too surprised at some version of adult Gohan, either.
What does Cabba bring to the table again?
Hit has a pretty good chance at being there on Day 1, given his popularity.mule kick, maybe being a nimbler Vegeta
me thinks U6 could be DLC: Hit, Cabba, Kale and Caulifla, maybe Frost and Champa
outside of Beerus/Whis/Golden Freeza I don't expect much Super related material to be in the base game
maybe SSB install for Goku/Vegeta, hopefully Ikari form for FTrunks (and not the lame slow buffed SSJ)
Hit has a pretty good chance at being there on Day 1, given his popularity.
After that shit with Android 18, never. WHY DID HE DO THAT!?Nah, son. Give Krillin his respect.
Im expecting 21 characters at most. Lots of people are gonna be disappointed given the roster of previous games.
I think they are gonna limit the game to DBZ / 2 latest movies at most, given how Super is just now barely starting to air in america
they first showed the game at E3, not in japan; they plan this to be a game for everybody and that will sadly mean constraining themselves to DBZ

Didn't the producer say that they'd be pulling from all eras of Dragon Ball? Plus we'd be knee-deep in the dubbed Universe 6 arc by then (we may even get the ball rolling on the dubbed Future Trunks arc).I think they are gonna limit the core game to DBZ / 2 latest movies at most, given how Super is just now barely starting to air in america

I'd rather have Yu Yu Hakusho first, although that'd be another sausage fest with only Genkai being a playable female. I can't think of any other women who fight in Yu Yu Hakusho.
We should just convince ArcSys to make the TRUE successor to Jump Ultimate Stars.
Yeah they said they are going for all sagas, they are selecting by popularity and different gameplay charactersDidn't the producer say that they'd be pulling from all eras of Dragon Ball?

The pink hair would probably look dumb if it didn't contrast so well with the black outfit, or if it didn't have that aura that comes with it. But it does, so all good!
Is this super? don't know anything about it but it looks damn cool to me.
Yep It's cool, watch the movies and start from u6xu7 tournment and you Will have a great timeIs this super? don't know anything about it but it looks damn cool to me.

I really hope Arale comes back. She was one of my mains in Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
A interviewer asked specifically about her and the answer was "we hear you".
Krillin, Piccolo, Tenshinhan, and 18 seem like that to me.I'd say Krillin and Piccolo are still super obvious.

Well if Xenoverse taught us something today is that Dragon Ball games are not above having Trunks new form in a cutscene but not in the freaking game...
That's one way to piss off both sides of Trunks fans
Lmao wow that's pretty lame of them
Perhaps less likely, relatively speaking, but still past the threshold of shoe in, IMO. I'd be very surprised if he's not in the initial release.Tenshinhan has a really good shot, he seems relevant to the current story (even though Super seems to be out to get him, from the little I have seen of that show) and has a ton of unique techniques. However, I think he is clearly less likely than everyone else you mentioned.

If Gotenks is in the game, I'd love for their intro to be Goten and Trunks doing the fusion dance.
You should hope that what they actually do is a duo moveset for Kid Goten + Kid Trunks that has a Gotenks buff state. Arc Sys knows how to do puppet character movesets after Blaz Blue for certain and the shit that's possible in those movesets is amazing..
Normally I'd say Tenshinhan isn't, but considering the producer is apparently a fan of him, maybe this time is an exception.Krillin, Piccolo, Tenshinhan, and 18 seem like that to me.
