Things that are now canon to the cast.

Post by keyz05 » Mon Jan 23, 2017 12:43 am

What characters have things that are fully considered canon from Toriyama in Super? For example, it's now revealed that Gohan has finally become a scholar and Vegeta went on vacations with his family. Those are now canon to the cast.

Really, you had to do some example, seems interesting but actually not fully understandable.
I learned english listening to songs. So I don't know anything about. The day you had to learn play piano by just listening .mp3, you'll understand.

Maybe he's talking about things characters do which were mentioned by Toriyama in interviews.
Like 17 being a ranger... Which I think is the only thing we will see which was first said by Toriyama, unless he also said Krillin was a cop, but I think cop Krillin made his debut on RoF and was never mentioned by Toriyama before. Farmer Goku debutted in the OVA and was never mentioned by Toriyama before iirc.
Maybe we will also see bodyguard Yamcha and farmer Tenshinan?

If he means this, then there is Tagoma's scouter, first mentioned in an interview and then appeared in Movie 15. Those two are the only occasions of Toriyama saying before and appearing later in a media.

Toriyama also mentioned about Tsufurujins in one of those 2014 interviews, but his version of them has yet to appear.

Gregory (king kai's pet bug) is now canon
Toyotarō: … I get the feeling I’ve just heard something amazing (laughs). Lord Beerus and Whis turn up in Dragon Ball Super, and have become an unsurpassable wall for Goku and the gang. What do the two of them mean to you?

Toriyama: Well… First off, right now I don’t have any plans for Goku and Vegeta to surpass Beerus and Whis.

Don't think so, if Gregory was made canon, he would've appeared in Movie 14, but since Toriyama was heavily involved, that didn't happen.

Since Super is a continuation of Z the anime, nothing much new is "canon" for the cast.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

We now have a canon reason why Vegito de-fused in the Buu arc.

We now know what happened to Emperor Pilaf, Shoe and Mai after the end of Dragonball.

They’re the same in terms of features, but a variety of different aliens wear them, but there are a bunch of different types of attachment parts depending on the position of the ear. If you’re a soldier in Freeza’s army, you can have one made to order to fit your ear. The different screen colors can be chosen to fit the peculiarities of different aliens’ eyes, or to suit one’s tastes. Also, dual-eye types exist as well. Incidentally, its inventors were the Tsufruians, the original inhabitants of Planet Vegeta who were wiped out by the Saiyans. Originally, it was a device for the purpose of guarding against enemies and beasts, but Gichamu, a highly skilled engineer in Freeza’s army, laid eyes on it and made modifications for concrete battle power numbers and telecommunications abilities, and soldiers began making use of it to carry out offensives.

The Battle of Gods arc, Freeza's resurrection, Universe 6 tournament, Black arc and Universe Survival arc. Everything in between, the slice of life episodes (Vegeta's vacation) are Toei made filler material.
