Huh, wonder what's up with Toriyama He’s been working for decades now and isn’t in as much a hurry to put out material now? Besides, doesn’t he have something like 3-4 concurrent projects going?

Bit odd the anime hasn't resumed now. Stick with the manga?

My understanding is they want Toriyama to be involved more and he's just not giving them anything. They don't want to move without him in fear of a GT-like situation. Isn’t he still very much involved with the manga, though? Like, still there to help Toyotaro with ideas for arcs and such?

I don't mind a delay on the tv, gives them more time to write stories to adapt.

They're the sort of people who'd sign deals to get a character growing in popularity into Funkos, figures and video games at the slight scent of money coming from them. To not even think about new Dragon Ball anime, especially after almost causing a damn international incident over its distribution, is just...weird.

So a leaked press release (that goes to a 404 page for the time being) basically says they’re going to announce a Dragonball Super movie for next year this Sunday, which is Goku Day.

I've been burned so many times with them teasing us, I'll believe it when I'm watching it at this point lol From what I’ve seen of it, it looks like someone involved on the website slipped up and had a link on the Toei English website that highlighted literally said “Toei Animation Surprise fans on Goku Day with new Dragon Ball Super movie in 2022”. So it’s either legit or Toei are pulling off the troll job of the century.

Yep, been talking about this in circles all day, can't wait. Goku Day's usually pretty big for the IP (Dokkan Battle for one has a huge celebration for it) and with the new website opening up, this announcement makes sense. Hopefully it's something different than Moro and Granola. The Moro Arc is too long and is definitely something they need to save for Super's return. The Granola Arc, we've just started it but that's not enough hype for a new DB movie.
Give us the U6 Saiyans, Frieza's return, Cooler's canon debut, Cell's return, just something that's more hype and we'll be good.

And Toriyama seems to just be content doing the manga (even though it's mostly Toyotarou doing it) and the occasional movie. So the series coming back is unlikely.

Someone I know has their choice of what would be hype for a new movie: make this character show/movie canon.
