Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 83 - Official Discussion Thread

Awesome chapter, as one could expect. :clap: Finally one in which I'm able to actually see Bardock in action for more than limited panels. If this is ever animated, it'll surely provide more nice content to add to Bardock in games. I like that Bardock's "gallery of villains" just got a bi...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 83 - Official Discussion Thread

In a panel it seems like Bardock’s hair lifts up a little, sort of like Ultra Instinct Omen’s… It may not be a mere zenkai after all?

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 83 - Official Discussion Thread

That’s just speculation though. It’s unclear whether the wish was actually made or if Monaito just sent off Toronbo, recognizing his mistake. But there should have been a point in the summoning of the dragon, right? Anyways, I wonder if Bardock beating Gas was what sparked some talking about the Sup...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 83 - Official Discussion Thread

So the big secret to winning was "never give up, just fight like you always do Goku" Whoa.. Yeah this was… underwhelming? I wonder if Toyotaro had grander plans which were shut down by Toriyama. I am sort of a fan of this development, which is very safe by the way, but at least we got Gok...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 83 - Official Discussion Thread

What the Japanese "leaker" said might be true, Bardock's wish, if it was granted, could change everything. But it raises some questions: 1 - For how long does wishing for someone to be well last? 2 - What can the wish protect them from? Is it selective? 3 - If Goku being alive to this ver...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 83 - Official Discussion Thread

If the wish was actually granted, the implications are huge. Basically, Goku and Raditz would have luckily survived Vegeta’s explosion due to a DB wish…? That is actually interesting if true. And if the wish was to “grow up well” it may have ended once they grew, hence their death shortly thereafte...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 83 - Official Discussion Thread

It was just an emotional power up rather than Super Saiyan, I'm guessing? It’s not even that. It seems like it was just the usual Saiyan ability to get stronger during a fight. There is no special form, no special nothing about Bardock. He won a fight, and that’s all. And the trick was to just figh...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 83 - Official Discussion Thread

My absolute weird and unlikely prediction is that Goku gets temporarily teleported from the present to the past through some Cerealian Dragon Balls-related shenanigans, and he is instrumental in helping out his father win the fight. It is the kind of fan service I would not be too surprised to see,...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 82 - Official Discussion Thread

Well, Goku was a little bastard as a Saiyan, the head trauma changed his personality completely. Maybe Goku has his old personality return and mix with his current self? That would certainly make this possible outcome more interesting. I’m not sure that’s how psychology works. Goku has already embe...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 82 - Official Discussion Thread

If the thematic focus ends up being the “survivor” aspect there’s no way it wasn’t intentional.

For sure one theme up until now has been the focus on the past. Even Gas’ gag from last chapter was based on it.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 82 - Official Discussion Thread

Arc is called Granolah the survivor Goku's memory is triggered by the words survive Gas admired Bardock's fire to survive Pretty sure UI mastery won't have to do with his saiyan nature, instead it'll be tied to Goku being a survivor That’s interesting. You may be onto something. One other trait of ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 82 - Official Discussion Thread

I would prefer it if this leads to Goku finding a new calmness in his heart, as if deep down that hidden memory of his was still messing up with his heart. Not emotional bullshit, just an acknowledgment that he feels much more serene now that he fully remembers all about his origins, and that he ca...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 82 - Official Discussion Thread

His saiyan blood means nothing and does not have any role in him as a person because the original manga firmly decided nurture is more important than nature. Are we sure? From the moment it was revealed that Goku is a Saiyan, many of his traits have been repurposed as Saiyan-traits. When fighting a...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 82 - Official Discussion Thread

To get back to the main point before I continue to ramble on -- I hope Goku's getting triggered of his last memories of Bardock and Gine don't lead to the sickly sentimental bullshit of "My parents... loved me?" or something of that tone to act as a segue into Goku attaining a unique vers...

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie #2 Thread: "Super Hero"

Hopefully this leads to them somehow being able to simultaneously release the movie in other countries? It is sad that we will have to wait more, but realistically the fans would have gotten spoiled (or would have watched it through other less optimal means…), whereas if this delays leads to it bein...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 82 - Official Discussion Thread

Just a quick thought, the chapter seems to imply that Elec will soon betray Gas. Maybe he will be the final boss, somehow? He has felt like the true villain since the beginning, so it wouldn’t surprise me. He got some wishes we haven’t seen, and the exact formulation of how he wished for Gas to beco...

Mindblowing chapter. Really, for me it was that good. I loved every single thing. From the art, to that Gas wetting himself joke which literally made me laugh out, something I rarely do when reading manga, and to Goku’s absolutely perfect characterisation, and witty tactics. And that finale… I would...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 82 - Official Discussion Thread

Wow, now that is interesting. I actually was hoping for such a thing to happen in Broly, back then. Wonder what Goku’s reaction and thoughts will be. I doubt that this will be a drastic change or anything like that, but I like it nonetheless.
