It takes a look at Vegeta’s past aswell as all of his transformations and powerups. It seems to be very informative, but I won’t be able to tell since I don’t understand japanese.
Cool Tidbits:
-Vegeta went Super Saiyan for the first time while training in the 300x Gravity Chamber
-Gained power equal to Goku when he went "Majin" Brought out hidden power that went beyond his limits..." Super Saiyan 2?
-He achieved SSG through training and battles (No Ritual)
-Achieved Blue Evolution in the tournament of power after deciding to go a different path than Goku
-Now he's gained a new power-up and has become a "Reborn Vegeta"

They're really going out of their way to hype him up, so hopefully it actually pays off and isn't just another "he was close, but couldn't get the job done" situation.

New chapter comes out tomorrow, right? I know Boruto does.

Now we know that they own the “leakers” in their back pockets.

Toyotaro is on social media, so it's not unreasonable to assume that he contacts the leakers and asks them not to leak major chapters like this one. If that's the case, then I'm even more excited for it, as it shows there's some major surprises in it.

Maintaining low expectations would probably be for the best. Getting this new chapter and having a small fight to compensate for the encounter will leave us blue-balled.

With the way they've been hyping this up (going as far as to give a recap on Vegeta's power today), I honestly can't see the logic of getting cold feet this late into things. Pulling the rug from under Vegeta now will make the uproar of him not killing Freeza look tame in comparison. I've said for the longest time that fans should keep their expectations low, but that's unrealistic now with how much build up this has gotten. Vegeta needs to knock this out of the park.

I agree. But they better make good use of every single panel. I don't care if they don't focus on anyone else in this chapter. Have the fight be nicely paced and most def provide some exposition about what's going on. The fight will def continue in the next chapter tho. That's why I believe that we will only get a glimpse of what will happen, but no conclusion to anything established before (possibly aside for Vegeta's technique).

I completely agree with this. These are other things I expect from the arc moving forward:

1- Vegeta to be the clear winner during their first fight.

2- Vegeta's technique to be something worth the wait, as this was teased around a year ago.

3- Vegeta to get the final blow during the second (potentially team) fight.

Damn, just thinking about how this may end up ending after the summer is kinda exhausting. The whole waiting process is truly unbearing at times. But well, we can only stand by and hope that A) stuff happens the way we predict, B) if Toyotarou wants to surprise us, it won't be at the cost of something else.

This is the biggest thing I'm worried about, as having Merus be the big savior everyone look up to will not only kill this arc for me, but modern DB as a whole.

Everyone expecting Vegeta to at least maintain victory or somehow get close. I expect Vegeta to manage one up Moro with his technique, but because it's Vegeta, he gets cocky and 7-3 is telepathically contacted by Moro to swoop in and turn the tables at the last minute in the next chapter when Moro gets desperate.

Agreed. I swear they better not have Merus jump in and kill himself, not only because I like Merus but because it would just be more like Merus instantly killing Moro because of how OP angels are. It wouldn't be a fight, it would be Merus snapping his neck without breaking a sweat. And because of how anti climatic that would be.

All right, let's keep it at evolution, a purple recolor wouldn't be very popular amongst the fandom. :lol:

Correct. They could at least give people an option. Where they can always choose for themselves wether to check the leaks out or not.

I really hope Vegeta doesn’t get something as stupid as Precog or something. (Foresight) That is wayyy too much like Ultra Instinct and Hit’s and Goku prediction ability during the Universe 6 tournament. It’s only about speed and avoiding stuff.

I’d like the “perhaps fake spoilers” much better where Vegeta can manipulate his ki like the Yardrats to become more hazardous and destructive, and therefore even poisonous for those who consume it like Moro.
