Dragon Ball Super Anime Moro News Update & NEW DBS Panel at New York Comic Con

Main summary

Key takeaways

News and Commentary

Summary of the subtitles (Dragon Ball Super updates)

Correction on the Moro arc staff

  • The speaker says they previously heard (from only one source) that Hiroshi Shitani would not be the character designer for the Moro arc in Dragon Ball Super.
  • That report turned out to be conflicting/leaked, and the speaker now states (as a correction) that Shitani is the character designer for the Moro arc.
  • They emphasize they don’t make definitive news videos without confirmation from two sources, presenting this update as a rectification based on newer information.

Expectations about animation quality/timing for Moro

  • The speaker notes Shitani did well on Dragon Ball Super: Broly, but warns this doesn’t guarantee the Moro arc will feel like a Broly-level movie every episode, since episodic production depends on multiple staff/timing factors.
  • They argue the Moro arc likely avoids problems seen in production breakdowns (referencing an episode 5 “fell apart” situation), implying the schedule was safer because work started earlier.
  • They predict the Moro arc likely won’t release until next year, based on a production timeline that seems more available than earlier Dragon Ball Super planning (previously described as roughly 8 weeks).

New York Comic-Con panel announced: “Dragon Ball Super: Beerus”

  • A dedicated panel titled “Dragon Ball Super: Beerus” is announced for:
    • Thursday, October 8
    • 12:00–1:00 p.m. (clock panel)
  • The speaker notes that no guests/voice actors have been officially announced yet, but expects announcements later.

How the panel timing relates to the Beerus premiere

  • The speaker finds it interesting that the panel occurs during New York Comic-Con (Oct 8–11), while Dragon Ball Super: Beerus is said to launch in October.
  • They infer it may be positioned just before or around the premiere.
  • They speculate a trailer may be shown, but not necessarily the “final” one—possibly a next trailer installment.

What the panel might show (hopes/expectations)

  • The speaker hopes for a glimpse of the arc involving Champa (“Champ-a”).
  • They add that the Universe 6 tournament arc lasts only seven episodes, which they feel may be too short unless episodes are longer than usual (they assume standard 22–24 minute episodes).

Episode count claims for Beerus

  • The speaker shares conflicting reports:
    • One source claimed 6 episodes about Beerus, 7 about Rebirth F, and 7 about the Champa arc (suggesting 20 total, though other phrasing also mentions 19 from other reports).
    • Another set of reports says there are 19 episodes, and the speaker concludes it likely lands around 19–20 episodes total.

Broadcast timing claim via One Piece hiatus

  • A contributor named in-chat as Sebastian Portal Takarato is cited as saying One Piece goes on hiatus October 11, freeing the time slot for October 18.
  • The speaker considers October 18 a logical candidate for Dragon Ball Super: Beerus’s new schedule, but admits they don’t know the exact day.
  • They argue this would benefit viewers in the Americas/Europe because Sunday morning viewing would be easier than previous weekend/weekday time slots, improving the ability to watch live.
