Thank you so much for doing what you're doing StarRot. I would've done the same if the doujin was easier to find. Can't wait to see the rest of the scans. Will you be putting it into a zip file when you're done?

That's okay!
Oh, I don't mind doing it. Only thing that bugs me is it takes so long. ^^
Yeah, I'll see if I can upload it in a ZIP, depending if my computer decides to comply.
Got about 30 or so pages to go. *Groan*

Those covers look great, and SSj3 GT Vegeta looks badass as well.

Alright, finished!

Here’s the scans.
Photobucket resizes the pictures, so you can view the full sized scans on my flickr page (right click and choose “original size”).
Working on uploading a ZIP at the moment.

I’ll post my thoughts about this Doujin later.

Really love the artwork, but I can't say I like the fact that the villain is Frieza's son. Hopefully we'll get some translations soon.

Here is the ZIP download.

My thoughts so far:
- The art is gorgeous. It’s got a lot more energy than Toybles art, in my opinion. There’s some “same face” going on, but a lot of Manga artists, including Toriyama, are guilty of this so I can overlook it.
- I’m not overly excited about the enemy being Freezas son – but I think it’s a lot better than Toybles villain, Xicor. His design is starting to grow on me.
- SSJ3 Vegeta. Hmm … Will Vegeta finally get some attention, rather than always GOKU GOKU GOKU GOKU?
- Pan and Uubs inclusion is quite nice. I always liked Uub; hopefully he’ll prove to be a useful character.
- On page 38 there’s a panel of Krillin and Goku, looking like they’re dead/defeated. Were the killed by Ize, I wonder? Or is it just a flashback?
- Adult Gotenks – Pretty cool.

Though I love, love, love action, I really hope there's some character development too.

It looks like it's just a flashback to the battle with Vegeta, when Gohan went ape.

The manga is entertaining, but I also noticed many of drawings similar to drawings from DBZ/GT.

That new device thing they use to go ape is mondo-cool. :)

It's from Gohan recalling when he became an Oozaru in the fight with Vegeta, and how hearing Goku and Kuririn's voices helped him regain his senses. He transforms into a Super Saiyan 4 for the first time here, and has to have Pan call out to him after becoming a Golden Oozaru so that he can regain his reason.

Anyway, I'm afraid I'll have to put off translating all that for the time being. It's not a terribly complicated plot anyway. In chapter 1, Ize is born out in space (though in this chapter it's said he's been training for 50 years), goes around destroying planets, then finally comes to Earth to avenge his father, where he beats everyone up. In chapter 2 here, Vegeta farts around with him as a Super Saiyan 3 before having Trunks use the hand-held Bruits Wave generator to turn him into a SSj4. He overwhelms Ize, who promptly transforms and turns the tables. Vegeta, SSj3 Gotenks, Oob, and SSj4 Gohan all attack Ize together, but to no effect. To thank them for helping work off his stress, Ize vows to show them his true form. To be continued.

Oh, and Ize kinda talks like a woman. Huh.
Kanzenshuu: Is that place still around?

Ah, I see.
Thank you for the plot summary, Herms.

I like this comic. Sure there are some things I certainly don't like, for instance Freeza's son (although I'd admit the idea of it is not to far fetched) and Gohan being able to transform to SSJ4. But the action is good, the art is great, and the story is... okay. If I can find this doujin for less than an arm and a leg I wouldn't mind picking it up just for the sake of having it in my collection.

You're welcome.
I've sent a few messages to various people and proxies to see if they can find vol. 1.

It seems like this story kick's off way too fast since it seems like the action already started and it looks like we don't know how Freeza's son came to Earth?

That might have something to do with the fact that this is the second volume.

There seem to be a good deal of tracing going on in this comic.
http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... BAFP14.png
Ice and Vegeta's poses are identical to Cell and Goku's in their warm up match in Chapter 397.


http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG16.png


http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG17.png
Ice getting thrown through that mountain side and stopping in mid air is just like, when Cell did that to Vegeta in Chapter384.

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG21.png
This page looks identical to the 3rd page of Chapter301

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG27.png

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG28.png
These two pages resemble the first part of the fight between Gohan and Gotenks-absorbed Buu somewhat.
That part takes place in chapter 500.http://www.kanzentai.com/tankoubon.php?id=41


http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG29.png
The first panel looks just like the panel where Freeza makes that entrapment ball thing explode in chapter 310.

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG30.png

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG31.png
These two pages look like Vegeta's fight vs. Recoom in chapter 276

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG40.png

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG41.png

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG42.png
And the panels featuring Golden Oozaru Gohan here look just like, when Gohan turned Oozaru for the first time in the Saiyan Arc in Chapter 208. http://www.kanzentai.com/tankoubon.php?id=18

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG52.png

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG53.png
And these look like when Freeza was hit by the Genkidama in chapter 316.

http://s1200.photobucket.com/albums/bb3 ... AFPG54.png
And the crater looks identical to the one made by Gohan and Cell's beam struggle at the climax of the Cell Games.

I don't own the Z portion of the Manga, so I'll take your word for it.
That's quite disappointing.
Referencing is all fine and dandy, but straight up tracing? Not cool. =/

Ahah, I knew from the start this doujinshi wasn't all that. I mean, Toyble traces a little bit, but this guy? Damn, full pages of tracing one after another, that is quite bad.
