"Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

Wait, how did the Kaioshins know about the Dragon Balls if they're something so "young"?

• Jaco asks about bulma's bust size: Apparently it used to be 87.2cm but after breastfeeding, it sagged a bit and now it's 83.4.

Spoiler:

Excuse me?

No Bra in sight though.

I think the new Saiyan will be some kind of sadistic anti-hero prodigy. I probably won't like him at all.

Was Beerus' design disliked by people when it was revealed? I pretty much liked him and Whis since the first time I watched the movie.

I think so. Even I raised my eyebrow first, and I now think Beerus has the best design in the series.

What makes you say that about the saiyan kid?

[ekrolo2]

Strongst guys looking silly is not shocking anymore though. By now it's what has become expected of Toriyama. Reversed expectations full way

Tell that to all the people always expecting for Broly and Broly look-alikes.

So, subverting the expectation that we'd get a simple yet appealing looking design is a good thing? Cause, Toriyama's made simple or weak looking designs still look appealing, Nipples isn't one of them.

What makes you say that about the saiyan kid?

Mainly the fact that he's a kid, meaning with certainty that he's some prodigy (at least compared to U7's Saiyans). I deduced his personality from his expression, so I may be wrong, and hopefully I will be.

[coola]

That small Saiyan have very mean eyes I really enjoy this mang, and will definitely pick it up, when it get relesed in US or Poland...i have only one question, why anime can't be this awesome/

[Draconic]

I really like the Purple Guy, the guy from who Oolong stole his robot transformation and the Freeza race dude. The Saiyan guy is really bland, but he might have somekind of special never-before-seen Super Saiyan transformation, which could turn out to be cool. Beerus' greatest opponent looks really funny and is 100% Toriyama and I really hope he doesn't turn into anything else (or if he does, it's not just somekind of buff-up). The bear thing, though... that's a crap design.

However, with all this Universe 6 goodies, I can't help but notice how amazing the Zuno character is. I really hope he isn't just a one-and-done deal. The story about the seven Super Dragon Balls sound amazing, from what I read from TheDevilsCorpse is true (to the Japanese version) the Shen Long story sound amazing. Really want to see where all this is going, though it might mean Champa is the villain of the arc.

Also, with the Galactic King being there and Jaco getting a bit more to do, we really need an animated adaptation of his manga, since many people might get lost, since he kinda came out of nowhere.

All in all, amazing chapter! THE HYPE IS REAL!

Or it's a (flat-chested) girl. Or he's just as small as Tarble. Hard to say from 2 pics yet

Didn't Champa say he collected the 6 balls from HIS universe? And we saw him in universe 7 before... Oh, I like where this is going.

Seems the remaining Ball is likely in 7th Universe if Champa searched through entire his 6th

Wait, how did the Kaioshins know about the Dragon Balls if they're something so "young"?

I'm not crazy here right? Old Kaioshin knew about the Dragon Balls and he's millions of years old, since Boo (and by extension, Kaioshin) is. This is definitely a plot hole, right? Even disregarding the timelines in guidebooks, it contradicts the manga, or am I wrong?

The manga never gave a specific number, only the "when earthlings were just learning to go upright" when relating when Majin Buu was released by Bibidi.

Nipples' design is obviously a joke. And something being "appealing" or not is entirely subjective to one's tastes and expectations.

[Retan]

Anyone else notice the other one poking Bulma in the butt as she re-kisses the big one.


I'm still not sure that the little saiyan is a boy (or has it been confirmed)

Yeah, but wasn't it said that elder Kaioshin was from 15 generations ago?

I'm inclined to believe it's a girl, especially by the anime cover.

But there's a chance the gender is actually supposed to be ambiguous...maybe the person fighting him/her (probably Vegeta) will find it out during their fight.

Yes, that's true.

I'm sure we can count on Goku to touch his/her private-area to confirm

[Doctor.]

So, unless each Kaioshin has a lifespan of 50 years, or the other 14 generations died instantly for some reason, then it's a plot hole.

Maybe Elder Kaioshin was still listening to stuff around him while sealed in the sword?

Lol, i did think of that, but i wasn't sure if adult Goku would go there.

He said he specifically warned the Namekians IIRC.
