I just noticed Zuno looks exactly like the weirdo Toriyama drew for Hetappi (without the glasses and eyebrows):

Both of their designs are based on the traditional Japanese character of Fukusuke, a figure representing good luck.

I'm just hoping for something new and interesting. Two weeks is a long while to go without any new Super info outside of "By the way, Vegeta gets to fight the next three opponents." @_@
Going on break with a non-cliffhanger episode didn't help either.

If we're really going to get three fights, the pragmatist in me says that they'll be short, underwhelming, or incredibly static to conserve drawings - or maybe even all three!

But on the plus side - hooray for plot progression! :D

"The official Twitter of V-Jump revealed that the first volume of the manga Dragon Ball Super, will contain a bonus, an exclusive interview between Mr. Akira Toriyama and Toyotarō in which they talk about the Super Dragon Ball series and its future."

What do you think they'll talk about ? it's length ? an upcoming arc or 2 ?

Nice but i think this would fit more as the beginning as he steps in the tournament And the fight begins after the howl Sound and a clash When the theme starts For me Hit is as mysterious as this character's theme

I have a Feeling Toyo will Supervise Super or assist in the animation since the Anime has already surpassed the manga thats the only thing i can think off.

Assuming that Toyotaro can keep up with a weekly schedule.
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

Don't worry, that chance is zero, as the manga only exists because of the anime. It's pretty much pointless otherwise.
In any case, maybe that interview will shed some light on the current state of the franchise, whatever's planned ahead or even what material Toyotaro is given. Oh who am i kidding. It'll obviously be all about him drooling all over Toriyama.

And stupid money wise since when it comes to Dragon Ball more people watched the anime than read the manga, especially internationally.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

The pink-outlined-in-black is "Vegeta taichou ni i hen / A change in Vegeta's physical condition" I think (but I could be wrong).

Will give the rest a shot when I can unless someone more skilled arrives before I return.
