"Dragon Ball Super (Manga)" Official Discussion Thread

I don't think Frieza will ever become good but I think he could become tolerable of the Saiyans. He'll still hate Goku & Vegeta but he won't kill them.

In a way he has Goku to thank for coming back to life after the Tournament of Power, has Goku to thank for getting stronger.

I could see him still doing the planet trade business but carefully not to effect the mortal level of U7 & piss off Beerus.

He could just go full circle, and give back the planets he stole, with a high rent.

Or become the IRS this becoming even more evil.

Well it's been confirmed that the DBS Manga will be absent for another month.

The lack of transparency is really annoying, no statement, no roadmap, no explanation, nothing, just more hiatus limbo.

The last original arc the DBS manga had was in 2022, if they want to cancel it they should just do it already.

Considering how Dragon Ball still makes money & clearly enough people read the DBS manga to keep it going in Japan, as well as other countries, I doubt they're gonna wanna do that.

Looks like the actual cover has extra aura effects

To be honest the more I look at this cover the less I like it

[JulieYBM]

I can't wait for a better artist to someday redraw this cover for a different piece of official art lol.

[johnboy1]

I love the cover, but it makes me even more mad they decided to give Beast Mode silver hair. The duplication from Ultra Instinct really stands out when we see all five of them.

I think that Beast might be a bit more gray, but the coloring differences really don't matter at the end of the day in that respect because it feels like the coloring for this cover is the issue more so than the coloring we see for these forms in the anime.

It'll be interesting to see how the color director approaches the two different forms' hair when the anime inevitably adapts this.

I'm hoping they shift Ultra Instinct a bit towards white, so that the difference is more apparent. Silver and grey are just too similar even if they are technically different. Look at Zyuden Sentai Kyoryuger (adapted in the west as Power Rangers Dino [Super]Charge), where the Ranger team had both a silver and grey Ranger: They looked incredibly similar, to the point where the shapes of their helmets were a better distinguishing trait than their actual suit color.

Oh my gosh, vindication lol. I was watching Kyouryuuger when it was first airing and I was like, "Y'all...Silver and Gray look a bit too similar here lol."

Making Ultra Instinct more white colored would work, for sure. That or darkening the gray on Beast, maybe? I do love the silver for Ultra Instinct, but the gray for Beast definitely should look a bit more different.

[Mr Baggins]

The concept does remind me of my Super Saiyan Sentai episode for SZ lol, as well as all the fan art.

(and yeah, the lack of color contrast between Goku and Gohan sticks out like a sore thumb )

This cover just demonstrates how bad Dragon Ball Super truly is/was.
We could have enjoyed a story without all these hair dyes and color swapping involved.
I would have been perfectly fine with Super Saiyan God being the only God Form introduced in DBS, that's only used in rare occasions (what enemy will allow Goku to get righteous Saiyan energy channelled into him from 5 other individuals?).

Dragon Ball has basically become an official meme of itself thanks to Super and Resurrection F where all this started.

Same here. SsjG's method of achieving it and time limit made it the perfect form, as it couldn't be abused due to its strict requirements. But then it became a regular transformation, because of course it did.

I’m annoyed we are left in the dark about a continuation, I would like to hope Toyotaro has a stack full of chapters drawn ahead of time, but I think it’s more likely they would not let him continue on his own without directives fleshing out the story with Toriyama’s passing. I’m thinking we are going to get a Black Freeza arc with possibly introducing Cooler (I’m thinking as a weak good guy to make him stand out from his movie counterpart) and then it will end. If they end it I hope they at least make it to volume 30. I’m thinking they will introduce SS4/5 in this arc, or put Toyotaro on another spinoff and continue Daima as an alternate take. A new artist is possible as well.

Spoiler:

I haven't seen anyone talk about it, but a new arc has already been announced for the manga, and if so, when will it debut?

No. Nothing has been announced. That's why you don't see anyone talk about it.

Anyone know what it says on the back?

It speaks about the plot of Carmine to both revive the Red Ribbon Army and to use Saiyanen X-1 & X-2 against Gohan until Goku shows up. Source: https://dragonballsuper-france.fr/drago ... erture-hd/

But it's basically the plot from that volume... We literally saw it happen already
