Mandatory "Toyotaro has officially said Super has to reach the EoZ" reminder.
Speaking of which, is there a good source for that statement? I know he said it, it was at some comic-con in Italy in 2017 if I recall correctly, but it's not terribly easy to find a good link to that interview and an English translation of it.

He was also seen during the TOP so they're definitely building up to something with him. I don't think it'll be the next arc, but they may surprise us.

I think it was said during an interview in one of the manga's volumes.

What are you guys freaking about, we already saw Vegetas "spirit bomb"
But instead of returning it, he'll probably throw it at him.

Moro is merged with the planet, so Vegeta attacking it would release the energy instead of Goku gathering it.

This bring me to my question:

Seems like theres two ways to do a Spirit bomb. And somehow King Kai knows one and Yardrat knows one. And King Kai also knows IT.

Did King Kai train with the Yardrats once?

Full chapter summary is now available on Dbshype's twitter page.

This is an interesting theory, but maybe it's the opposite and a Yardratian trained with King Kai.

DSB wrote: Thu Nov 19, 2020 8:43 amThats not Vegeta at all. Thats 2 moves that he used that are of Goku's in this arc
It's Spirit Fission, Vegeta is just channeling everyone's energy to himself then throws it at Goku. Sure looks like Spirit Bomb, however.

I guess I got that it wasn’t exactly the Spirit Bomb but yeah it’s still a similar concept. I kind of wish it was a bit more original

But Vegeta supporting Goku is exactly what I want from Vegeta so I am happy with that aspect of the chapter

What are you guys freaking about, we already saw Vegetas "spirit bomb"
No one is freaking out and what happened in this chapter is different than what is happening in the previous chapter. What is happening here is similar at least in concept to the Spirit Bomb with the other characters lending energy.

You don't need to learn the Spirit Bomb to use it. Future Trunks was able to create one instinctively/subconsciously against Fused Zamasu, despite never performing or even seeing that attack before. It's not an attack you learn, it's an attack you form through sheer will. I too find this asspull-ish, but oh well.

After reading the summary I can say that thankfully Toyotaro managed to not only make up for last month's trainwreck, but overall end the arc on a high note.

It’s a lot better than I thought too. I am glad I was wrong

This chapter looks to be great! Better ending than Future Trunks arc by far. Still doesn't redeem the entire arc, but it's still nice to see. UUB returning was a surprise. I was not expecting that. Glad Vegeta got to help. No wonder Moro looked more deformed before Goku beat him. :clap:

Isn’t there one more chapter left? Hopefully there isn’t one more surprise twist to ruin it :lol:

I like being right, but I couldn't be more happier being wrong this time. :lol: I want nothing more than to see DB be in good hands and put out good quality material, so hopefully last month's chapter was just a one off incident that won't happen again.

I think Vegeta's fans (including myself) can be happy about how important his role was in taking down Moro.

It's confirmed that Beerus and Whis were summoned because of what happened to Merus, so chances are the next chapter will revolve around that, and maybe even set up the next arc.

I'm happy Vegeta's training was not a waste of time after all.

This chapter was very good IMO. :thumbup:

Oh yeah, also pls give credit to Piccolo for suggesting Vegeta to use his new technique in a different manner. Real nice that he gets to be relevant in his mentor role.

How are people talking about the ending, spoiling details here thanks guys, when it isn't out till tomorrow ??
Yamcha almost certainly did not cheat on Bulma:
He was afraid of Women, Bulma was the flirty one.
Yamcha wanted to get married (it was his gonna be his wish)
He suggested they settle down in the Trunks saga.
Alternate future Trunks is not a reliable source.
Toriyama wanted new SSJ Kids and not make new characters.
