Will the SUPER Manga continue past the ToP arc?

Post by Avenant » Tue Mar 13, 2018 8:47 am

Considering the comments by Toriyama and Toyotaro published on the DB-movie 20 website in the past few hours,

http://www.kanzenshuu.com/2018/03/12/of ... a-comment/

It definitely sounds like Toyotaro could be continuing the Manga past the ToP arc. If not too differently, at least by including the DB-movie 20 story in Manga form.

What do you think? I'm also very excited to see how different the Manga will be with the ToP, as Toriyama said it would!

[spoiler]I think there will also be story developments different from the TV show and the movie, so please look forward to that as well. - Toriyama[/spoiler]

[spoiler]With that in mind :) the comic will continue as a comic :) - Toyotaro[/spoiler]

I'd love to know everyone's thoughts and theories!

Why did you make a separate topic for this? People came to a conclusion in the manga post.

Why not? There is only one thread for the manga and all the replies makes it really cluttered.

Because the answer is yes, and that's it ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think his words can be looked at in more than one way :

1- The manga will continue adapting Toriyama's stories but change things up like what its been doing.

2- The manga will move ahead of the anime and movie after the TOP so we can get a glimps at what's to come once the anime returns.

3- The least likely, the manga will continue after the TOP in its own direction while Toriyama and the anime/movies will do their own thing. I think this'll be the best thing cause it'll give us even more content to enjoy alongside what Toriyama's doing.

I wanted a separate discussion that I could keep up with. It's not inappropriate, is it? There are 21,158 replies in the Manga thread. This is much more concise for a specific Manga question.

I think the first one is most likely. I don't think Toyotaro would ever stray from Toriyama's direction unless he is no longer wanting to be involved or passes away, either of which I hope doesn't happen for along time haha

It depends on what everyone involved wants to do. Maybe Toyotaro's stories moving forward will be set between Toriyama's, that way they'll get two for the price of one.

In terms of Toriyama, from the interview it seems like he's in for the long run which is great as I think he's building up to giving DB a real conclusion with all possible questions answered, not something open ended like what he did before where things just stop and feel incomplete.

I hope it does. The manga generally avoids many of the critiques I have toward certain parts of the story, such as the Goku Black mystery identity plot being removed. I remember one of my colleagues saying that the manga would have a 100 chapters before this arc was revealed to be the end of the anime. I can only hope his prediction comes to pass.

1 is confirmed for sure. Who knows if 2 will happen.
3 is the worst case scenario

Not a good idea,does it really hurt to wait for Viz to translate it, the discussion will be better once we get the full thing.
    Off course the manga will continue when the Top, didn't Toriyama mentioned that when he discussing about the movie.

    Maybe. Then again this arc probably won't finish until next year. Won't know for awhile unless they say something

    Toriyama-Sensei has already confirmed it's going to continue after ToP, and it will adapt the movie in a different way, also.

    Dragon Ball Super comic drawn by Toyotaro (on sale now up through volume 5!) will keep on going as-is. I think there will also be story developments different from the TV show and the movie, so please look forward to that as well. I will be, too!

    Tenshinhan did good against Frost. You can't complain really.

    I wish your statement will become true , reading that translation of Toriyama s words I don’t get nothing about new stories , just different story developments .. but looks clear that at least , after top arc we will have movie content arc .
    That’s already something , one step more to say that we will have dbs manga for 1-2 years and hopefully to be release before tv anime in the future , because anime ahead means Manga contracts story ( with some changes to give you some minor differences ) , but manga ahead means anime expanding story , and that always works better
    It was as if a whole lot of people ...were screaming in pain....

    Well depending how long they drag this Tournament out, they could end the saga by the time the new movie comes out in December at which point the manga could then progress forward by retelling the movie.

    It would a further 8 or maybe 9 chapters to cover the Tournament of Power.
