Depends on your definition of retcon. I agree Goku being a Saiyan is a retcon, but some believe it has to be a contradiction to qualify. Piccolo was also an alien in DB, they just hadn't revealed the name of his race.

And it seems when people are talking about retconning Battle of Gods, they mean taking the original story out of continuity and replacing it. Which Z and GT didn't do.

So it looks like this might be a re-write of Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods and Yo! Son Goku and His Friends Return!! making the events happen much sooner than later.

[up][up]

Well, I'll put a Joking Mode tag around it then, but I still find the prospect funny.

[up] The Yo!Special is wrapped up in this too?

All that has been announced is that Super will begin before Battle of Gods, and tie into both movies.

Some are speculating that the series will adapt Bo G and RF into anime episodes with some changes to make the series flow better.

Dear lord how is that going to work.

By the way, this is by the AF guy, at least the art? As in, that doujin where Goku and... West Supreme Kai have a Villain Sue son for some reason?

[up] I don't know who that is. Is he related to Hinata?

Wow. It's just... it's just glorious.

I have to say, Seireitou Hyuuga is absolutely amazing not only for how insanely OP he is but also for much detail there is. Seriously, just scroll down the page and look at all the high quality manga pages and animated gifs.

I once recall a Bleach Mary Sue who was one of my favorite examples of this from a Fanon wiki. She'd been a mixed-race, female officer in the 19th Century French military in life, is Soul Society's best tactician, has power rankings equal to Yamamoto and Aizen (and surpassing both of them in some fields), has a token flaw of being bad at Kido (but it's stated if she trained in it she'd be amazing), and has boobs twice as big as any of the canon characters', which, if you know Bleach, is saying something.

[up]That last one would actually be a strike against her to me.

[up][up] Twice as big as... At that point, I think they classify as their own lifeforms.

Crap, the Bleach Fanon Wiki deleted her.

I didn't realize they did that. Deleting characters I mean.

What the hell is the point of a fanon wiki?!

The Destructo Disc actually packs quite a wallop on its own, considering it made second-form Frieza panic
