"Dragon Ball SD" in Saikyō Jump (UPDATE: Confirmed+Released)

[Michsi]

Aww.
Not that I don't like Kamesennin, I do like him, but when they say "popular character" I feel kind of misled by the advertisement.

Ah well. Still curious as to how it all plays out.

Kamesenin IS a popular character so I don't see how the advertisment is misleading. It really wouln't have made any sense for Vegeta to show up here.

The moment I saw the promo pic I knew it would be a "what might have happend during the 8 months of training " sort of story, one that doesn't actually interfer with the canon story line.

I think it looks very cute and I think it's closer to Toriyama's older style than the one he draws in now, which personally I like. I really hope it's not just a one shot.

[Chibi Mystic Gohan]

I think it does ignore the original story, actually (like EnmaDaiou said, it's a remake). It looks like Goku is actually trying out the Kamehameha for the first time ever, when attempting to save Kuririn...

[Amigo Ten]

Obviously it ignores the original story since Goku has the kintoun before he's even met Muten Roshi.

[Chuquita]

Just finished reading it. Very cute little oneshot.

I loved it! Ooishi sticks to the original's spirit. It was so darn adorable and funny! I'm excited to see how the rest of this story goes. Now, does this new magazine have new issues every week like the regular Shonen Jump?

[PuppetDoctor]

I read it a few hours ago and I really enjoyed it. It was a very easy and fun read. Plus I loved the artwork.

Love how Goku assumes Sea Turtle is the Turtle Hermit, similar to how he thought Bubbles was Kaio-sama.

I know! I may even find it funnier because Umigame is even trying to tell him he's wrong, which Bubbles couldn't do. xD

Overall I thought it was fairly cute, which is expected for it being in a little kids magazine. I was kinda hoping that it would add content to the already existing manga, but a condensed remake isn't that bad either. The idea that I don't know exactly how things are going to play out intrigues me. Since it says to look forward to more exploits from Goku, I assume it will continue in some manner, so are Bulma and the others going to show up eventually? How are they going to go about introducing them? Fun, fun...I look forward to it all.

I'm interested by this art, although I am slightly disappointed that it's going to be a remake of Dragon Ball. I was sort of hoping that it would be something new, but no matter. At least it looks promising.

And some of you guys have been saying that you've read it already? How?

Thanks.

I've just read it and...eh. The art's decent, but, as I said before, I was disappointed that it wasn't a brand new story and just a retread of the original series. And after reading it, revisiting moments in Dragon Ball that we've loved before is just...not the same. I wanted to like it, but I didn't.

Maybe, as they release more chapters, I'll get to like it a bit more. After all, this is only the first chapter and not much happened.

The art is nothing impressive for a official release. It looks pretty amateur (for a official release)... The art of most of the popular DB fan mangas is honestly better (DBM, DBAF and DB universe F). But I did somewhat enjoy the story, even though its nothing new.

[Ahiru77]

The Goku & Krillin show, eh ?

Oh well, it's cute.

I agree completely.
For example, I think Roshi firing his Kamehameha could have been done better.

[.:PoetikaL:.]

I'm not really complaining about the art because the way it's drawn represents what I "feel" it is: a simple retelling done for fun. If I wanted to, I could complain until the cows come home saying that it isn't drawn professionally, or anything along that, but I don't because I understand what this fun, little series is doing, and that it's retelling the story of Dragon Ball with a fun, happy look to it, but adding different elements and tiny changes to it.

In short, I'm happy to see something new regardless.

[Hao_Kaiser]

Aww... That was cute.

I really enjoyed Kame Sennin just pulling a Piccolo and leaving them out in the wilderness.

[Eddie]

This was a fun little story. If this really does become a series, I could see Viz bringing it over as part of their Vizkids line.

I don't think that way. (about the art)
And I don't think DBM, DBAF or any other fanmade manga have better art.

I din't think DBSD have a great art..
But it's normal/good.
Simple and basic. For kids.

[Scarz]

I have not complaints about the art either. In fact I liked it a lot, it was cute, simple, and fun. Just like the story.

[Bura]

I'm a bit disappointed. I don't think it had a single new joke. ^^"
