What did you guys think about the first episode of the new series? How do you like the new characters? What do you think about the story?

I really enjoyed it. The new characters are fun and interesting, and it ties directly into Z. I love that they are finally going to Demon World. I always wondered why they never explored it. I don't mind too much that they are kids. Maybe it will give it a little bit of a Dragon Ball feel

My only gripe, and I might be mistaken as it has been a while since I read the manga, is that they retconned (or unretconned?) the Potara ear rings again. If I am not mistaken it was stated in Super that it was only permanent for Kais. Vegito had something like a 10 minute time limit due to Blue using so much power. I thought I remembered Kibito Kai getting separated (by a witch maybe? I'm a lot more fuzzy on this one)

[SPOILER TERRITORY]

Are we finally getting some info on Mr. Popo? This revelation of pointy ears being attributed to demon realm is quite interesting. Namekians, Kais, and Popo all originating from there. Do you think this will have any larger implications?

I like the parallels as well. Supreme Kai's sister is the Demon World's Bulma. Neva is Demon Kami. Do you think there will be more of these?

[END SPOILERS]

Overall I thought it was a good time, and I can't wait for next week

Thanks for your review!

Just a small note, Lemmy has built in spoilers format:

I will try. They don't work on Boost so I won't be able to tell if it works. Thank you for the tip!

Edit: Sorry, I'm gonna need that explained better. Do I include the text immediately after spoiler spoiler? Do I need to do it for each line break? Do I need to close it, and if so, how?

Edit 2: like that?

Boost is one of many apps that hasn't been updated in many months to display posts correctly.

Look at this post: https://ani.social/post/5051256

I would only go with apps that scored a 10.0 on the markdown rendering test.

I appreciate it, and I may look into it later. It really isn't something I want to worry about this second, and I've learned how to properly spoiler tag, so it shouldn't be a problem

Ah, didn't know about this issue with Boost.

So basically
