2) Would Super Saiyan 2 Gohan saving Zangya from being killed by Full Power Bojack in Dragon Ball Z: Bojack Unbound, and killing Full Power Bojack like in the original history, have changed the rest of the film and series in general? Especially if Gohan had befriended Zangya?
Much better.

Wow.
Welp the Japanese boxes still have "Gokou"... Guess international release boxes having Goku is good enough.

Everyone should check out this cool inside look on behind the scenes of Shonen jump, it elaborates on the details on how manga gets published, the process of finding new talent and the mottos and guidelines upheld at Shonen Jump. In addition, to a slight look into the lifestyles of several popular mangaka and other cool and funny miscellaneous information, its definitely worth a watch.

I was thinking these days... Why never come to Future Bulma to send Gohan in a ship to Namek and wish everyone back? Why Future Goku never contacted with anyone from the afterlife? Sometimes I think Future Trunks timeline is full of plotholes.

Does anyone know what the initial purpose of the blue inked manga pages included in Jump Ryu magazines was? Why are they blue?

Don't know. Do you have some pictures so we can get an example of what you are talking about?

What does that have to do with it being inked blue and having a header with hand written title?

To cover up cheap paper quality, Shonen Jump uses second-hand paper for its magazines, so to cover up that imperfection they use various colors like green, yellow, orange, etc. However, I don't know anything about the handwritten header, to be honest that blue page looks like a unfinished product or it could be probably the owner of that magazine decided to write that.

Do you mean the hatred of the Franchise overall, or the Hatred of the first parts of the series?

The Mayweather vs McGregor fight is probably the best real world showcase of "holding back", while still being so far above your opponent it's not even close.

The lack of Hironobu Kageyama and the JAM Project in Dragon Ball Super annoys me a bit.
