Whatever they're like, they're the two whose counterparts I want to see the most.
I'm getting the feeling that twin doesn't mean they have to look exactly alike, (Champa is fat with a broken tail), or they could be a twin by being the opposite gender. There is countless option's: Goku could be evil, he could have never taken up fighting, he could be lazy, Vegeta might actually be the good guy, it's just insane possibilities, there's no way to really predict it, which is interesting.
That's exactly why it's so much fun theorizing about. X3
Can you imagine these boards when/if official character art of Uni 6 Gokû and Vegeta appear? I'm so excited about it! わくわくする!
It's going to be hard waiting for the next chapter, that's for sure :D
I hope the Manga slow's it's pace now, it felt like with the BOG arc, they were just skipping around to get it over and done, now Toyotaro has the entire pacing/manga to himself :thumbup:

Right, I just hope Vegeta and Goku are still alive in Universe 6, I don't think Toyotaro or Toriyama would miss out on a chance like this though.

I'm convinced we're going to see Uni 6 Gokû and Vegeta. Reading Whis' big info-dump on how the universes work is way too carefully constructed for us not to get to meet their Uni 6 counterparts. It's very Chekhov's Gun. If we weren't going to meet them, why even come up with the twin universe stuff at all; why not just have each and every universe be a completely different place with no mirror images?

I am kind of bummed that it looks like we likely won't get to see (unless Vados is wrong) Uni 6 versions of the Earthling members of the cast. I was looking forward to Uni 6 Kuririn (who I've head-canoned as really tall, like over 6ft), Bulma (who I've head-canoned as identical to Uni 7 Bulma, only she has her manga hair-color/lavender), and Chi-Chi (I've head-canoned Uni 6 Chi-Chi as being male and so balancing out having my current theory-until-proven-otherwise of Uni 6 Vegeta being female.)

They had a great chance to have Freeza interact with Goten&Trunks but for some reason they didn't do it so don't be surprised if the same thing happens again.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

They have one more chance to get to do that (Freeza meet Goten and Trunks) with Super. He probably won't meet them in Super's version either, but there's still the possibility he may.

It's pretty weird to see people using "Toyotaro or Toriyama", as if Toyotaro had some authorship status here. He's only working with what people above him are giving him, like the RoF manga. It's not like Toriyama will write character "A" fighting in the tournament and he'll be free to use "B" instead. Any relevant thing happening in the manga is only there because it will also happen in the anime.

This tourament should take about 6-7 months to commence, Give Beer/Whis plenty of time to whip the other Z fighters who'll join Team 7 into fighting shape.

That's the only complaint I have about this manga being Monthly, with 18 pages. :thumbdown:

More pages would be great, but if i could choose i would want the 18 pages in color. :think:

In any case, really enjoying this much more than the anime already.

But then there'd be no U6 Goten/Gohan/Trunks/Pan/Bra unless U6 Goku and U6 Fem-Vegeta are a thing

I'm pretty sure we will see in Universe 6 Earth's population was killed by Kakarot (Goku never hit his head) and maybe he did so fast and by teen-ages he already reunited with other Saiyans (Vegeta, Raditz, Nappa). After it, everything could have happened.
We will see, though.

That would be an interesting take, I don't want to see a Bald Nappa turn SSJ and grow hair though, :lol:

I'm not saying Kakarotto, because Beerus isn't Champa and Whis isn't Vados, but a Saiyan being sent to Earth could make some sense seeing how the event occurred in Universe 7 as well, but I don't think an alien invader really counts as an "idiotic war". The way Vados talks about it makes it seem like the Earthlings wiped each other out; like the King's Royal Army vs. the the Red Ribbon Army, for example.

I think Red Ribbon did it, and Uni 6 Kakarrotto is still on a still existing Planet Vegeta.

Or you could have it where Gokû lost against the Red Ribbon and died there, but that doesn't interest me like Uni 7 Gokû meeting Uni 6 Kakarrotto does.

I don't think we'll see U6 versions of our characters from the main universe, it would be so cheap IMO

It is tropey, but I can't see any major reason for designing the multiverse the way they did if they don't plan to show at least one or two "counterparts" of the main cast. Why bother with six pairs of "twin universes" at all? Why not just have each universe be a completely different place? I dunno. I could be wrong, but the whole set-up seems so overly complex that it's just got this Chekhov's Gun feel to it, imo.

I think at most we'll see some shared races, like Nameks and Saiyans.
