I don't think anything has leaked, not just the chapter we're waiting for. Hopefully we'll get something within the next few hours.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Oh god this is gonna be episode 100 all over again.
    I think is a great idea that someone took care of the leakers since it can lead to terrible discussion when people jump the gun by one damn page :problem: so is better to wait for day 21.

    While the Manga still have some problems, I definitely think this is Toyotaro Best arc so far, much better than the previous two arcs.

    Maybe, Toyotaro saw how bad Episode 100 was and he decided to improve on it, and is hoping that Shueisha thinks it's better than what Toei did. Just a thought I have.
    Caulifla best girl! :)

    I think it'd be great if they somehow managed to prevent it from leaking as it'd be the first time we'd be able to read the full chapter without multiple pages leaking before.

    He is bound to change episode 100 since the Manga vastly different in term of narrative in comparison to the Anime.

    Agreed, it encourages a better discussion this time.

    That sounds better than praising something that may not deserve it. I like the manga but there are still problems in it.
    I respect the criticism of the manga (at least on this site) considering there is much more objective observation applied to it, where as the anime people think so long as some hyped up, bizarre scene looks cool, people will try their hardest to make sense of it to justify it. The manga is much more straightforward.

    I agree. I think the improvement is getting clearer. His U6 arc was pretty weak to me, especially that when he tried to write for himself over what would have fit the story, where as now it seems more like he is doing more to write against the reception the anime gets for certain bigger liberties Toei makes. That has brought more acclaimed chapters for this arc moreso simply writing withing the criticism with his own understanding of what people expect from the series. A better direction I call that.

But if a story is perfectly coherent (and I'm really not seeing any compelling arguments that this one is anything but, despite constantly recurring, really poorly reasoned, attempts to argue otherwise), and you're bemoaning the lack of "shine" moments as a reason for the story's poor quality, then you're letting your thirst for "shine" moments obfuscate your ability to detect basic storytelling when it's right in front of you.

    Episode 100 Broly homage with SSB was unsurprising because what had happened previously.

    Goku using Blue vs krillin and holding back so much that krillin could hold on for a bit
    17 fighting ssb equally while both "held back"
    gohan being stated to rival goku in power

    Toyo doesn't have ssg let alone ssb be spammed like the anime does and when it comes to antagonists, none are as strong as their anime counterparts(not saying thats a bad thing)

    I think Toei was trying to make it look bad just to make UI look better, if that was planned. Where as it would do the form more justice to just have it be used as their 'full power' and saved. Using SS for weaklings and SS2 for the stronger middle characters is much better to me, then SSG should be for the high hitters like Jiren & Toppo that were specifically said to be God level.

    I'm curious to see how Golden Freeza will look. Toyo has never drew him in a manga.

    Nice, thank you! I just want to see if Ribrianne will get up to anything...or potentially get wiped out.

    We wouldn't need leaks if Toyotaro could just hint at what's in store for the next chapter :cry:
    Tired of all this waiting and suspense!

    I do enjoy our conversations when we speculate on what happens in the next chapter and when the leaks arrive as well.

    Really? I mean considering the manga has no colors, Golden Freeza is not much different from Final Form Freeza with 'eyebrow muscles'

    I agree. I don't see why people are being this childish when the officially-translated full chapter is out by the 21st each month. I see literally no point in eagerly waiting to be mislead by badly-cropped, poor quality, dubiously-translated random images each month.
    When will it be Ledgic's time to shine?
