I don't know if that's necessarily the right conclusion to draw, but in various interviews, he's spoken about how Toriyama does criticise his work a lot, and that motivates him to improve.
Toyotaro=Cabba (or Kyabe i don't know anymore).
Toriyama=Vegeta

Huh! So Toyotaro is probably learning how to become a super saiyan/mangaka right?, right?
I really miss ma boy, Black :( :cry:

Yeah that's what I get+Toriyama has become quite picky lately. We talk about the guy that delivered his chapters as late as possible just so Torishima could reject him. It is implied (or at least that's what I understand) that db evolution got him really mad. Since then he makes a lot of revisions and doesn't let others have complete control of the franchise. The day that Toyotaro will work alone on the manga wont come soon.

Anybody interested on how the Zamasu arc in the manga will differ from the anime?

I have a good idea already, but it'll be neat to see it first-hand. Basically, I think it'll be similar, but with no extra trips between timelines. Oh, and I hope that the part where Zamasu envelops the universe is cut, that was pretty lame.

Lame is sorta the wrong word for that. I mean it's by definition, probably the exact opposite of "lame".

I meant that it was lame from a storytelling perspective, not the feat itself.

Maybe a little cheese but I don't see how it could be" lame". It was anything but that. That genki sword is better than a generic ki blast

I thought it was a great idea, that was horribly executed in every single way it could have been. Making a good idea, come out absolutely stupid.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Yup, I was gonna say this only, but didn't bother to elaborate..
That was a very bad execution, hence it turned the entire scene forced and lame

Planeta Comic will bring the printed manga to Spain in March as a monthly publication. It will be a 48 pages comic-book format (the three first chapters possibly?) for 2'95€. The first collected volume with the exact Japanese format will come after the summer.

I still don't trust Toyotaro enough for him to handle DB alone, so that's cool thing for me. :P
Hopefully he's getting closer to Toriyama's way of thinking, even though like any other person in this world Akira Toriyama is unique, and there will never be anyone 100% like him.

Toyotaro is still in the position that a lot of fan artists dream to achieve. Let's hope he gets the best of it.
I wonder if anyone (him or Toei staff) already had the balls to ask Toriyama for new character designers for Goten/Trunks/Marron and talked about Bra.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

I can't imagine that they haven't. He probably just said something like "I'll get to it when I get to it" and put it off. I wouldn't expect a timeskip no Hit joke intended until the next arc finishes (not the Hit one). I can, however, imagine Toriyama going "oh yeah, uh... o fug :.DDDD" at the mention of Bulla. Considering how he (allegedly) read through his manga, though, I don't think he forgot about her, at least not entirely.

Honestly, I didn't mind it until it turned out to be such a visual disaster. So on second thought, if he finds a way to make it better, it would be fine with me.

So the new arc starts in February for the anime. So that means December will be Toyo's final Black arc chapter... That really sucks.

I hope not. It would be incredibility disappointing to shove almost half the arc in one chapter.
Better to wait for details on this new arc, we have almost nothing. Even if it's confirmed to be in February, the manga can still make two chapters. They could surpass the anime by putting three or four episodes worth of content in a chapter. Not that hard, specially if the anime pads the episodes with fluff.

Given the way Toyo has paced this arc I am not counting on it besides doesn't the chapters get released mid Month? The anime arc starts right at the start of Feb so it's going to start ahead anyway, so that's why I am worried that means Toyo will have to begin the new arc in Jan meaning this month has to be the last Black chapter otherwise his comment doesn't fit.

Hoping that his comments was mistranlated or something. Or he was misinformed.

I wonder if we'll see Super Saiyan Rosé giving a good pounding on our heroes in the next chapter, looking forward for it :thumbup:
