Does it bother anyone the RoF manga still isn't conpleted?

It urks me that the RoF saga was skipped over. Does it bother anyone else?

Not me. I think it's because I'm always inclined to prefer and follow the anime version of the things (except obviously when Toriyama is in the mix) that most of the time I keep forgetting what the manga has shown or not (unless it shows something I've always wanted to see). So it doesn't bother me.

By the way, since I don't like Movie 15 at all, it's not its retellings that would make me enjoy it and demand the saga to occur in other places, so there's that too.

I wouldn't know what to expect when it comes to Freeza losing due to "stamina burn" since that has since become a key trait of Blue as well (in the Super manga). Maybe Goku and Vegeta would just use God instead?

I think they either should've covered RF in the manga or skipped BOG. either have both or have none.

No, why do something over 3 times?

Not entirely. The context of the movie is fairly barebones and could be explained in a few pages in a flashback if need it be.

I like the notion of an "obligatory bonus chapter" consisting of a few pages summarizing the manga version of RF leading into Freeza's re-introduction for the tournament. That would be ideal.

How is it anymore "barebones" than BoG?

I'm kind of bugged about it since there are 3 chapters and then do a bonus chapter and at it to volume 1. It felt kind of jarring that they skipped BOG to U6. Or they should have started the manga with U6.

Honestly,it really bothered me at first but not anymore.Super for me starts at the U6 arc,with the 2 films preceding it.

I won't lie though,I would love a finishing chapter of RoF in order for the manga to feel more complete but even if we don't get it,I'll be ultimately fine with that.

It really doesn't need to be covered because it's already a movie as well as being in the anime. I'm having to watch BoG and RoF in the Super anime and since I have to watch the movies too I'll have to see the same thing twice. I'd be more inclined to watch more Super if they'd started out with an original storyline in the beginning.

Yeah it honestly kind of does. I hope he at least does an omake at the end of one of the volumes covering it. Overall thought I absolutely love the manga.
