Dragon Ball Manga errors thread

oh! Thank you for that lesson, I stand corrected

Yeah, but looking at it now though, it says "It's like something it's welling from inside me..." shouldn't it be "something is welling from inside me"?

[Analytical Delusion]

Dumb question maybe, but is there a corresponding thread for plot holes/continuity/dialogue errors in the manga? I feel like I've seen at least one or two, but I don't know how extensive they've been.

exclamation
1. Used to express a range of emotions including surprise, anger, resignation, or relief.

Well, it's actually this:
verb
1.(of a liquid) rise to the surface and spill or be about to spill.
(of an emotion) arise and become more intense.

Yeah, but looking at it now though, it says "It's like something it's welling from inside me..." shouldn't it be "something is welling from inside me"?

He only says "The power...!! It's like it's welling from inside me...!!" - no "something".

Toriyama seems to mess up on vegeta ocassionally.

He colored his eyebrows in here:


Forgot to draw the links in the Armour*shoulders*


were these fixed in the full colors?

Tenshinhans pants changed color from pink to green in the Tenshinhan arc

The eyebrows were fixed but the lines in the shoulders were not.

Someone can answer me if the only plot hole in the manga was about the DB usage in RR Arc?

[dbgtFO]

I hadn't noticed this error until a few days ago. Take a look a Piccolo in the second panel.

[eledoremassis02]

Nice find! I couldnt even find piccolo!

No, there are a ton of plot holes in the manga.

This is always a touchy subject because the definition of a plot hole is never clear cut. You can stretch it so much that any little contradiction becomes a plot hole or you can narrow it down that nothing is a plot hole, because you can always find an excuse for everything. Nevertheless, what I personally consider a plot hole, is when an event contradicts previously established information and it can't be explained with information that the series gives us.

So, Cell saying he could only regenerate due to the lump in his head, when he regenerated his upper body back when Goku used the Kamehameha against him. You can say "oh, the lump survived the Kamehameha because it's extra resistant" or something, but I think that's just making up excuses the series doesn't bother to give you. There's also another case of Cell not knowing about Piccolo's regenerating when he has been shown to know the techniques of the dragon team members and has their memories. Trunks also straight-up says that the androids of his future are #19 and #20 when talking with Goku.

There are also a bunch of sketchy stuff like Bulma not telling Trunks about Gero's lab or Mr. Popo not telling everyone about the RoSaT but those are more easily explainable, like Bulma only knowing about Gero in the present timeline because Trunks came to the past and distorted stuff and Mr. Popo could be dead in the future timeline.

There are probably more, but those are the ones I can remember at the moment.

Just in case anyone wants direct a translation to the footnote:


Japanese: Yubi ga ippon fuechatta.


English: One finger was added accidentally.

It was a mistake. Viz translated the footnote to "He grew a finger."
EDIT: Just realized the edit I was responding to was on the first page. Sorry.

I just noticed at the start of chapter 179, it's written instead as chapter "170". The text is not included in the original page, so it seems to be Viz's blunder:



The title page for the chapter is numbered correctly however:

[Neo-Makaiōshin]

I read somewhere that Toriyama reused a certain panel of Kami´s Lookout but forgot to erase Goku and God from said panel in its reuses. Can someone point to me from which thread was that ?

[Sandubadear]

Speaking of plotholes, is it a plothole Mr. Popo using the Dragon Balls to revive the Namekians just one month after they used the DBs to revive Goku?

They said with the revival of Kami, the Dragonballs were somehow "reseted"

Viz putting the wrong chapter number on a title page again, it's actually chapter 149, not 130:

Tenshinhans pants changed color from pink to green in the Tenshinhan arc

Spoiler:

I wonder why people here often take Toriyama's color scheme seriously. He always gives high priority to artistic balance of colors than consistency, which works pretty well and adds charm to his art. There isn't much point in nitpicking it.

Oh yeah I know but I found interesting because in the show he has purple pants and I thought they didn't want him to have pink pants so they made them purple and in the piccolo JR saga they made them green. Just something I found interesting
