The fight sucked though. Hope we can get a translation soon.
Hopefully the translation does not ruin it for us.
Hopefully they explain Super Saiyan because that shit needs to be explained ASAP.

I haven't seen this chapter yet. Because it's not online anywhere yet. But if they really only show the fights that already happened in the anime like Goku Vs Frost and Piccolo Vs Frost and doesn't move forward.. It's a completely pointless manga chapter then!!
The purpose of the manga is to be ahead of the anime and spoil what's going to happen in the future of the anime.
No sense in rehashed material on an inferior black and white comic version.

Having a version of the story with decent art gives the manga plenty enough reason to exist.
Favorite Movies: Alien, Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back, The Thing, Evil Dead, The Land Before Time
Favorite Shows: Cardcaptor Sakura, Doctor Who, Wallace and Gromit, Wakfu, Yu Yu Hakusho
Favorite Manga: Fullmetal Alchemist, Hunter x Hunter, Dragon Ball

It wasted a lot of time on Goku vs Frost it was longer than Piccolo vs Frost in this chapter. That is what I call fan service for Goku. It is going to be way behind by the time of chapter 11
At least the page count is going up.

Yeah but the Piccolo vs Frost was shit in this and it wasted too much time on Goku messing with Frost. The anime beats this chapter which is probably a first.

I have no idea where you guys managed to read it. And i'm not going to ask since that's illegal here. All i'm saying is even Gojiitaaf and that french dbz site don't have it either yet. That's what makes it so weird to me. Hell it's not even on youtube.
You guys are gods in finding stuff then lol

Since we don't have the translations yet I think it's best to reserve judgement till we find out if anything important was said, but at first glance this chapter sucked haaaaard. Both fights sucked really really bad. The Goku vs Frost one was way to long for what was going on in it and Piccolo's was short and made him look like an idiot. At least the anime treated him with some respect. Here he did nothing of worth.

Edit: I might be wrong, but there doesn't seem to be anything pointing to Frost actually being as evil as Freeza in this chapter, unlike the anime. Sure, he is a cheater, but it's not the same thing. Really curious about the translation here.

I read it where gojiitaaf gets it from. I am surprised I found it so early and took everyone else about 1 hour to find it after me.

So why do people keep saying he is a lot weaker then Frost and that Piccolo has not got stronger.

They don't. I think its clear Piccolo got stronger. The disagreement comes in when some try to place him on God tier all of a sudden...

I don't have as much of a problem with this chapter that others seem to have. I wish Piccolo vs. Frost was a bit longer since it was actually a hand to hand fight in the manga, but other than that I have no major issues. Goku vs. Frost was better in the manga in my opinion, even though I guess you could argue that he played around too much. I think I like the strategy aspect of the Super anime a little better in regards to Piccolo vs. Frost, but I don't mind this.

My basis for quality does not depend on a character using a certain move or not.

Those panels displayed far more dynamism than any scene in the animated version. That's pretty much all I was looking for.
