Remember that the chapter hasn't been fully released and that the placement of some snippets are just guesses.

[spoiler]Kaioushin - Gowasu-sama. Gowasu-sama. Gowasu-sama!!!!

(snippet)
Zamasu: What are you, a powerless God that doesn't even have the power to subjugate the Universe, talking about?

(snippet)
Trunks/Mai: He's... he's alive...!

(snippet)
Trunks: Mai! Use this bike and run away with Gowasu-sama to as far as you can go. I'll stop him until father-tachi comes.
Mai: No way...!!

----------

(snippet)
Goku: Yo! Sorry for taking so long!
Mai: I'm... sorry, if you have Senzus give one to Gowasu-sama first.

(snippet)
Goku: You're going alone, right?
Vegeeta: Of course.

Trunks: F-father...

Goku: Kaioushin-sama also came here, huh?

Black: So, you have returned already.

Vegeeta: I'll defeat him. Go give them a Senzu.

----------

Black: You seem the same as before... has something changed? Vegeeta.

Vegeeta: You too, always with that hateful face of yours.

Black: Such confidence. Have you found a new transformation or something?

Vegeeta: Who knows?

Black: Good... show it to me.

----------

Black: Red hair...!? Super Saiyajin God? What are you doing...

Vegeeta: I realized it. That, to defeat you, I need this form.

Black: Hahaha... Are you feeling so hopeless that you lost your mind, Vegeeta? What can you do with a lower Super Saiyajin level at this point? .....What's up with that face?

----------

(snippet)
Goku: It's good we got here in time. Oh, this is the time machine? You hold on to this.

Trunks: That's... Black!!! Father's... that form...!?

Goku: That's Super Saiyajin God. It's the transformation before Blue.

Trunks: Before!? But... it's not losing at all against Black, who has become Rozé.

(snippet)
Goku: Vegeeta is transforming into Blue only in the moment he attacks.

(snippet)
Vegeeta (to Black): You finally realized it? But, even if you saw through it, what can you do?
Zamasu: Let's do this together. This way we have the advantage.
Goku: H...he!

----------

(snippet)
Zamasu: ...You want to fight me again?
Goku: Yep. I'm your opponent!

(snippet)
Vegeeta (to Black): Do you think you can worry about other things now?

Zamasu: You still don't understand, do you? I'm immortal. I can't lose.

Goku: Even if you're immortal, it's all over with this technique, Zamasu! Eat this! Mafuuba!!!!

----------

Goku: Trunks, help me here!

Trunks: Y...yes! Is this ok?

Goku: Yes! Now we have to put the talisman and we're done! Wha!!?

Trunks: Goku-san, this is...

Kamesennin: He... took the discount ticket for the cabaret club mistaking it with the talisman...

(snippet)
Vegeeta: That bastard! He screwed up!

----------

(snippet)
Goku (to Zamasu): Well, this is enough for you, isn't it?

(snippet)
Black: Damn... the likes of you...
Vegeeta: You took the wrong body! It's time to end this.

(snippet)
Zamasu: ...Our plan is perfect... Failure is unforgivable.
Trunks: He... seems like he's receiving emotional damage...!

(snippet)
Zamasu: Damn... it... it wasn't supposed to... Damn.... Weren't we supposed to be able to have our way with all the Universes if we joined forces?

Vegeeta: Choose! Do you want me to kill you two or will you kill each other?

Black: Calm down, my brother. We still have one last thing we can do, don't we?

Zamasu: T...that's right.

Vegeeta: If you can't decide I'll just kill you. That's fine, right?

Goku: ....? One last thing?

----------

Zamasu: Be grateful to witness this form, mortals. The sole God above all Universes... It's the birth of Zamasu![/spoiler]

Wait, Gokû Black calls Zamasu brother in the manga? Like "oniichan"? Or "aniki"? Or is it just "comrade"?

I didn't think it would be oniichan either, it's just the first synonym that I thought of.

Vegeta said he needed Super Saiyan God to defeat Black but later uses Blue when he attacks... Is using Blue some power-up for Super Saiyan God? But we still are missing pages

How is he trying to make God look better when Blue is said to be stronger and God is lesser?

was it the anime or manga that said that the act of transforming into SSB is really draining? Because if it's the manga than what business does Vegeta have doing it constantly...

The manga. Toyotaro came up with that dumb drawback, so the way Vegeta is using it this time makes no sense whatsoever. Vegeta barely transformed and did anything against Cabba and he was already at 1/10.

Jinzoningen MULE wrote:That's a good question. The Super manga was a very different product at the time, even the BoG Arc was very poorly told. I think it's probably best to defer to the movies when anything is in question. I don't put much stock in the RoF manga, mostly because it's so faithful to the movie. There's no reason to bother looking into it. Either way, the safest answer is "Some vague version of these events definitely happened".
Meshack wrote:1) Throughout the Champa Arc and Future Trunks Arc, details about the Freeza fight were given and it's the same details from the movie and the anime. Stuff like the Freeza Army were not though. You keep mentioning canon but all 3 versions are canon but they're told differently

2) Toyotarou probably would not have used Super Saiyan God in the arc unless Goku didn't actually absorb the God power and he used Super Saiyan God against Freeza before he transformed into Golden Freeza. When Goku and Freeza unleashed their full power, I assume Toyotarou would have used Blue like the other versions
Thanks for the quick and solid responses. It probably doesn't make much sense for Goku to use Super Saiyan God against Freeza, fair point. And I do agree that like the FnF promotion, the BoG adaptation was rushed. I do think the early integration of Champa/Vados does flow well into the U6 arc as well, plus the couple short omake/bonus chapters (I think there were two, Kaioshin/Kibito splitting with the DBs and the one about Pilaf and co. turning into kids), so I think even if treating the films as the primary sources, that material is useful IMO.

Dude Goku used it in the Uni 6 tourney in the manga. When Black first becomes Rose F. Zamasu wonders if Rose is what happens when a god surpasses SSJG.

Lol do you pay attention to the manga at all? Goku used Super Saiyan God during the competition with the 6th Universe and Zamasu watched the competition, having searched for Son Goku on GodTube

I won't bother telling you what is wrong with this statement others did it well, but next time try not to sound like a hater without sense
