I do not want want to see female versions of male characters. I'm still trying to get used to Whis's counterpart.

So, I just read Chapter 5, and this is what I wanted Super to be. All new content with Universe 6 and all these cool Champa and Vadous interacting with Beerus and Whis. I can't wait to see what this tournament has to offer.

I mean, you're pretty open about looking at cartoon porn. Why would you do that? It's fiction. The proportions of these women are not possible to reach in reality.

Do you guys think that Champa arc is different that Universe 6 arc?. I am interested in hearing anyone's thoughts in this.As for my opinion, i think it is planting seeds for universe 6 arc.

No. It's probably the same as the Buu Arc. Same story, just the tournament leading up to something bigger in the second half.

Goku is about to fight the captain of team 6 and it'll be the most epic thing EVER!

Supreme Kai of the multiverse-Hello,I need your help to help me track down the Majin of Universe 6,Golden BUU! I could simply sense the ki of Blah blah Di's henchmen, but I'm to stupid to think of that. Please stop everything you're doing to help stop the birth of some bad guy. I'm sure by taking you there I won't help him get revived. In fact I'm so confident that even IF he gets reborn, I won't tell ANY of you about his power to absorb people, heal and turn people into candy!

Vegeta-FINAL FLASH!

Whis-0.o

Beerus- Right, now where were we?

Well, there go all the theories of GT being in Universe 6! :lol:

I love how the manga is much less focused on the movie events and shows what else is going on. Though the defusing of Kibito Kai still creates a big plothole if you count GT.

What are the possibilities of us seeing a evil goku of universe 6 vs our goku that be epic who knows there so many possibilities something like this might happen maybe the universe 6 goku never sent to earth, maybe planet vegeta wasn't destroyed by Frieza and was still ruling over planet vegeta until an army of saiyan soldiers became immensely strong and over thrown frieza and ruled the universe 6 with help of an evil god of destruction from a different universe maybe universe 5......

Read the chapter it was really good. A lot seemed to happen in a space of 20 page chapter. It was very interesting.

Loved Chapter 5! The interaction between Champa/Vados and Beerus/Whis was pretty cool. I already love Vados for mocking Champa like that :lol:

Super Saiyan Blue... ok :thumbup:

I'm hella hyped for the Tournament, I wonder if Toriyama will go for a boring "5 Saiyans focus", or if he's going to let Piccolo or even Buu shine again.

Finally had the chance to look at some of the pages myself, and huh...Whis's suggestion of 'Super Saiyan Blue' seems more serious than I'd imagined it, I figured he was saying it with a grin. Maybe it really will get renamed to that?

I guess it wouldn't be the first time. Didn't some kind of promotional material refer to Gohan's shiny new Cell Games transformation as something else, prior to Goku calling it 'Super Saiyan 2'?

Yeah, one of the guides at the time referred to it as "Super Saiyan Grade 5", I believe.

Yup, it and Full Power Super Saiyan were originally classified just like the buff forms.

Shueisha could probably wait for Toyble to be able to fill in the gap in story content for his telling of the Golden Freeza arc and then release an extended edition in the collected volume, assuming they were willing to wait a few months.

If they were smart, they would just use the Resurrection "F" manga he already did to fill in the bulk of the gap. It ended right before Freeza went gold, so you really only need one more ~35 page or less chapter to use for the final fight. From what I remember, some of his Victory Mission chapters were longer than the Super ones we're getting now (and he was doing those while still producing the extra special chapters for Jump Festa or Saikyo Jump anyway). Plus, the full movie is out as an easy reference now and he could still condense the battles like his version of the base Goku vs. Freeza fight. I wouldn't think whipping that up would be too hard for him in between Super chapters at this point.

On the bright side, if they go with the 5 Saiyajin, then that means Goten and Trunks will be developed :thumbup:

I never understood why the manga (ROF) didn't show all of the fight against Freeza

Because spoiling the movie's main attraction a month before its release wouldn't be a very bright decision.
