DB Anime influences in DB manga

[Goe]

Hi mates:

I was thinking about even DB manga predates DB anime, anime seems to have a little influence in manga. Let’s see:

1.Bardock was added in manga after Toei animation created his story in 1990 special.
2.Vegeta’s armor in Cell saga is clearly influenced by Bardock’s armor (remember that armor was designed by Nakatsuru).
3.Chapter 367 of manga (released in march 1992) includes a scheme about Dr. Gero’s androids, and tells A-13, A-14 and A-15 had an advanced development, even Gero decided to not use them. A-13, A-14 and A-15 were main villians of a movie (released in july 1992). Even manga chapter is some months older than movie, Toriyama may wrote that lines due to he was aware of that future movie.
4.Marron was filler Krillin’s girlfriend before android Saga. In Bu’s saga, Krillin’s dougher is also called Marron, so Toriyama used a filler name.

Do you know more DB anime influences in DB manga? If so, please share. Thank you!

Krillin's girlfriend in filler was Maron. His daughter is Marron. I'm almost positive it was a coincedence.

You are right about Filler Krillin character was Maron (マロン) and Krillin’s dougher was Maaron (マーロン, Marron in some occidental translations). I had a mistake thinking both have same name.

However, I still think Maaron’s name was an anime influence since both names are almost identical and both characters are female and Krillin-related.

I think including Bardock was by far the best thing he did, as without it Goku wouldn't have had any personal connection to Freeza. That's not to say the hero has to have a connection with every villain, but it would be odd for someone like Freeza who has this history with the Saiyans to have 0 connections to the Saiyan who eventually beats him.

The driving school is later implemented with Goku suddenly driving in that week prior to Cell Games.

[Cure Dragon 255]

I... disagree. The episode shows him SUCKING SHIT at driving and NEVER making any improvement. If anything its a plothole.

Movie 12 also "made" Toriyama create Vegito

What about the concept of the Potara?
Toriyama: That was simply, since Fusion was a plot point that was already taken by one of the movies, I was wondering what I should do; I had always been drawing earrings [on Kaiōshin], so I thought, “perhaps I can use these”…

Had you drawn them from the beginning, thinking that you’d use them as a fusion item?
Toriyama: No, not at all. They were just for decoration.

NEVER making any improvement.

Episode 172/Chi-Chi says otherwise.

Was this in the manga?

[Grimlock]

None of this driving stuff, apart from Goku himself suddenly driving, is in the manga.

[Cure Dragon 255]

I think its the opposite then. Goku was shown to be utterly hopeless at driving and the driving episode ended with the teachers saying Goku didnt need to drive since he was already so strong and capable of flight. Not to mention that they werent shown improving at all.

[Grimlock]

Not that you need everything to be shown. Chi-Chi is very clear in what she says, so I trust you can and will understand once you watch it.

[Cure Dragon 255]

It isnt readily available in my country. Dont assume everyone lives in the USA.

[Grimlock]

And you shouldn't make such wild assumptions either, since I don't live in the United States either.

That's not an excuse, though. Pretty sure wherever you live there is something called "Youtube", right? But don't worry, I'll make it easier, after a few seconds of searching, here it is.

[VegettoEX]

The attitude on display is so unnecessary.

It says its unavailable. Also I already tried it and it didnt work when I looked for the episode on my own. Sorry for just assuming you lived in the USA though. THAT was rude.


As an apology, you can quote the episode and I will believe you. I just need the exact quote.

In Dragon Ball Z - Episode 172, Kuririn asks how Goku got his licence drive and then Chi-Chi explains the whole thing. There is a flashback to the actual driving school scene/episode. After it ends, Chi-Chi acknowledges everything that was shown, including that Goku failed. However, as the image above shows and as she herself states, Chi-Chi convinced the instructors to teach Goku once again. It was off-screen this second lesson but since we see Goku driving in that same episode (which is the scene adapted from the manga), then it obviously means that Goku learned and improved his driving skills and is now allowed to drive.

[Xeogran]

I'm not entirely sure if that's true, but I heard the name "Mount Paozu" was anime only, until Toyotaro has Goku reference it while fighting Jiren.

I'll be damned! You win this one lol.
