Dissapointed in the lack of females but that's it.

Anyone else reckon Beerus will overhype his fighter and will lose, like he hasn't trained in centuries and has become useless?

Goku will win, Vegeta will wn, Piccolo lose, Buu lose, then new guy will fight, everyone expects an easy U7 victory because of Beerus' hype, then he loses.

Thinking about it, I wonder if Monaca is going to be Super's answer to YYH's Genkai. Couldn't she temporarily restore her energy? I forget.

By raising her reiki to its maximum she could return to her youth.

Many thanks! It's been a while since I've seen it.

Yes, this would be amazing lol. Besides for the fact that Piccolo loses and goku wins. That should be switched

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

I wonder how true form Monaca looks like? :think:

Anyway, I would appreciate if the U6 Saiyan Kid design was something like this:
乃亜

Top 10 DB/Z/GT Songs

Are we too old to enjoy new Dragon Ball movies/series?

How do you know that? You're bordering on disrespectful, Mr.Toriyama puts thought into things, he genuinely likes his franchise, proved when he revamped the script for BoG. You shouldn't assume based solely on your perception of the character. You can dislike the design all you like, what you've just said I find distasteful.
Calm your fanboyism, he is proving the complete oposite of what you said so I couldnt care less if you think what I say is disrespectful or not I'm just saying what I see, I mean even back in my school days I used to draw better characters on my desk when I was bored

You see what you want to see, it doesn't mean it's the reality. I don't know how a drawing shows "lack of effort" but, considering Toriyama's legendary transformation was him changing Goku's hair a bit and telling his assistant not to ink it anymore, I think he will do well with Monaka.

Everyone is saying the kid is the Saiyajin but what if he's not?

I asked earlier, but maybe with different people on right now I'll have a better chance:

Does it say anywhere in Chapter 7 who's idea it was for Gokû and Vegeta to train in the RoSaT for 3 years? Is it just in the narration, or does a character come up with the idea?

I mean it reads like a Vegeta idea, but I'm just curious who actually came up with it.

You dont know the reality either and most ppl think the same way I do so in any case what I'm saying makes more sense since this is not his first lazy design in super

But are we even really sure about it?? Right now all we have to go by is the Korean translation. Which may have some mistranslations.
Maybe Zarama will show up when the Super Dragon Balls are summon. After the Super Shenron grants their wish, Zarama arrives and finds out the Super Dragon Balls are summon. I would like to hear more about this character soon.

I'm confused. Isn't Zarama and the Dragon from Super balls the same thing?

I think that second one is pretty ugly! I feel like the hairstyle of the first picture with the face and clothes of the current design would be best. His face already is different from gohan's so it's not like he needs a radically different hairstyle to set him apart.

Going from what I've been told, no. It looks like the Super Dragon Balls are a set of Dragon Balls created by Zarama in Age 41.

Nah bro I think he looks cool cause he doesnt have those generic db haircuts cause that adult gohan one is also yamcha's and tarble's so any other haircut looks better than that

I find it interesting that while the Universes are twins, they share the same Super Dragon Balls. The tidbit about the star markings, is exactly like when Goku was discovered to be an alien. The markings are so that the Super Dragon Balls would be mistaken as stars, now it all makes sense! Retroactive storytelling at it's finest.

I find the Whis background teasing intriguing. On this chapter he talks about a bird from his planet. Dragon Ball rarely has mysteries that prolong this much..., my curiosity is building.

I'm only going by DevilsCorpse bulletpoint list atm, unless something else appeared. But his post says "they were formed in AGE 41 by the Shenlong (dragon god), Zarama/Jarama". So I read it as "they were formed by the Shenlong dragon god by the name of Zarama/Jarama" no?
