"Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

I don't understand what you mean. Zamasu didn't want Goku's body just because he saw it on GodTube.

His reasoning basically boils down to seeing a powerful mortal, getting triggered, and then deciding to take their body.

No, he heard about the mortal who defeated Majin Boo, an enemy the Kaioshin couldn't defeat, and saw him in action through GodTube, where he saw exactly how strong he was & that he had even obtained the power of gods. All while he was questioning the duties of the gods & seeing that most of the mortals bring death & destruction to the beautiful universe. So, he decided to kill the other gods & mortals by obtaining the most powerful mortal body he knew. The difference between the anime & manga is that the anime made it more personal by having Zamasu fight & lose to Goku, but this is something that the anime added, not something that Toyotaro omitted.

That's probably all that was in the outline, the whole Zamasu fight was probably a Toei idea.

[HeroR]

What if Zamasu was perplexed by seeing Goku interacting and befriending Zeno on GodTube, a mere mortal with the audacity of being so casual with the powerful (and creepy) Zeno.

But Zamasu never even mentions Zen'o.

I read the chapters myself. Don't need you to summarize for me. He basically took over Goku's body 'powerful mortal'.

And you're assuming the anime added stuff. Unless you have seen the outline, you really need to stop saying that. Especially when all Toyotaro said he tried not to skip key details.

But he watched the Tournament on GodTube, so we know that Zamasu saw their interaction. If Gods of Destruction were shocked and afraid with Goku and Zeno, Zamasu would be angered and revolted. I don't think the manga will mention this reflection from Zamasu, but we know that he's aware of Goku's "friendship" with Zeno.

As far as we know, he only watched Goku's fights. Goku's interaction with Zen'o is not touched upon.

Wow, if this arc is going to have more 2-3 chapters, the multiversal tournament will start only in may or june, and judging by the stakes, it will be longer than Goku black arc, so, when it will end? 2019?

Do we even care at this point? As long as he's putting out a good product, I'll buy it, and he definitely is as far as I'm concerned.

But the publication is getting too behind, the anime arc started in february and the manga arc will start around may/june, it's just too much. If they only release 2 chapters/month for the next 3 or 4 months...

[The gr]

Can we all agree with something,screw v jump with that monthly schedule,like I wish the manga was biweekly but I'm siding with mule here I'm glad we're having a decent product and not a souless rush job

[Jinzoningen MULE]

The comment you responded to said "Do we even care?", I don't. At this point, I don't care if he's years behind. I literally have no hype for any of the new material.

[Dai-Saiyajin]

I don't understand why they do not move DBS to weekly shonen jump, even if it's give small chapters, it will be more pages than a monthly publication.

Honestly I wouldn't have mind if we have two chapter per month because I'm in for that,like two 39 pages chapter per month is a great idea

[Jinzoningen MULE]

Yeah, I'm not a fan. However, it seems necessary at the moment, especially now that we know Toyotaro is responsible for designing some of the new characters. Toyotaro, despite being behind, is doing well at the moment, and I'm fine with it.

If Toriyama were writing the manga, it would be. He isn't. At the end of the day, Toyotaro is, for all intents and purposes, a gimmick. You don't get into Shonen Jump by being a blatant imitation. Also, when this manga started, it was just an abridged version of the anime, mostly used for revealing spoilers. V-Jump was the proper place for it at the time. Little did anyone know that once it fell behind, it would evolve into a product of its own.

Exactly, if V-Jump release 2 chapters/month until it catches (and surpasses a bit) the anime and then return to the normal 1 chapter/month (to give Toyotaro some breath).

what are you trying to say because manga went behind,it receives a massive zenkai of quality,well at the end of day as long as toyble is drawing story boards for the universe survival arc and drawing new character design ,then I'm fine with the Goku black being behind and having more chapter, instead of being a souless rush job

[nato25]

yeah I'm all for quality over rushing. Why does it matter if the manga or the anime is in front? Both adaptations are using the same skeleton that Toriyama provided. You most likely just feel that way because you were used to the Manga revealing everything first. I'm keen to see how this plays out.

[MyNiggaGoku]

The thing is,the manga being behind of the anime shouldn't have mattered from the very beginning.From the point where we knew that both mediums follow the same outline while they fill in the details we knew what we were going to get.As Jinzinongen Mule said,the manga started off as being exclusively a promotional thing but now that's not the case anymore.Yes the manga serves the purpose of promoting the anime but right now,we can see it evolved into a product on its own,judging from some huge differences the 2 versions have.I couldn't care less if the manga falls further behind of the anime,because that will consolidate the fact that we'll get a better product.As long as Toyo doesn't rush things,everything else is ok from my point of view.

Hum, no. Zamasu is obsessed over Goku, he asked Zuno everything about Goku besides the super dragon balls in chapter 18. That same chapter told us that Zamasu knew of super dragon balls because of the Tournament too. We don't have info that the transmission of the Tournament on GodTube was interrupted after Zeno arrived, so there's no reason for Zamasu not to watch the interaction between Goku and Zeno (and even if for a strange reason Zamasu didn't want to watch this, Zuno could tell him about this after he asked information about Goku).

He also watched how they used the super dragon balls and Zeno appeared between the fight against Hit and that, so very likely he saw Zeno's appearance too.

We know for a fact he did see Zeno appear at the tournament. It's right there in chapter 17, so color me surprised that this is even a debate to begin with, when it's so easily verifiable.
