Fanmanga - DB Multiverse

Is it just me, or does the art take a slight nosedive in the second panel, where Goku and Uub are talking? It's still good, way better than I could do, but...I dunno. Something's off there.

I absolutely agree. It ain't any where near Toriyama's style that they have seamed to portray so well thus far. Goku and Oob's eyes look, off...

I totally missed that from the huge nosedive that the story's been taking.

I mean, really? Such a build up for Boo to win like that and for the Kaioshin to conviniently come out slightly after losing with a simple "coming through, don't mind me"?

No, seriously. What was the point?

Yeah I noticed it as soon as the page loaded. I though it was some spin off/special based on DBM for a sec.

Kaioshin knew that he couldn't win, especially with Buu's regeneration. At least he didn't think he had much chances of doing it, especially if Buu avoided his strongest attack during the fight.

So he followed a plan: release the Kaioshins. If Buu turned back into Kid Buu, he would probably go on a rampage and be disqualified, ensuring Kaioshin's victory and that course of action would also allow him to save two Kaioshins from Buu.

It was a good plan and pretty much the only thing that would allow him to win (and save two Kaioshins) if his strongest attack really didn't work on Buu.

To do it, he tricked Buu into absorbing him. He used his strongest attack. If it hit Buu, he might have a chance of actually beating Buu like that. If Buu avoided it, the power of the attack would still be probably enough to make Buu try to absorb him, giving him the chance to put his plan into action and maybe still manage to beat Buu.

However, his plan backfired since the Kaioshins were already totally absorbed. There was nothing else he could think of to defeat Buu and he probably noticed that he wouldn't get out of Buu in time of continuing his match since he spent too much time looking for the Kaioshins. So, when he got out, he already knew he had lost.

From the story point of view, it was an interesting match and an unusual fight that gave us an idea/theory of how strong and smart South Kaioshin was, why Buu chose to absorb him and what might happen to someone who has been absorbed by Buu years ago. It was an unusual fight, because it was more of a brainy fight than a typical fight.
Having Kid Buu return could have been interesting, but only in regards of him fighting Uub, since Kid Buu is no real danger to the tournament with so many fighters stronger than him there, and it could have been awkward having him follow the rules in order to fight Uub. Also, having Fat Buu fight Uub is also interesting, so Kid Buu is not really necessary.

I also read the chapter, so I understood the events themselves.

While it was a somewhat interesting fight, it was also a build-up for a very anti-climatic nothing. It turned itself into a non-event. I'm looking forward to Boo fighting Uub but, at this point, I'm kinda worried about how it will be handled.

[TonyTheTiger]

Poor Trunks.

[Gyt Kaliba]

I'm actually a bit disappointed that Trunks didn't at least advance enough to go SS2, but I'm liking the banter between him and Vegeta.

[Rukura]

"I don't mind holding back" - What?! Who's that, and what did he do to Vegeta? Yeah, he would do it. But I don't think he would ever say it like that.

As far as the outcome...well...I hope Trunks has a few tricks up his sleeve, at least.

[TonyTheTiger]

Well this is a Vegeta that got used to being a family man. And it's really only Goku who he ever seems to care to go all out on at this point.

[rereboy]

Trunks seems confident, nonetheless.

[Michsi]

Meh, it doesn't seem that OOC to me, not when it's supposed to be post DB Vegeta and that is Future Trunks. Even worded like that.

[dprez]

So cool.

Maybe Vegeta really will help Trunks became a Ssj2 before the match is through, somehow...

[TonyTheTiger]

Vegeta: Hey, #16, come here for a sec, will ya?
#16: Yes?
*CRUNCH!*
Trunks:
Vegeta: You're welcome.

[DBZGTKOSDH]

I love Vegeta's face expressions in this page.

[Gyt Kaliba]

Vegeta: Hey, #16, come here for a sec, will ya?
#16: Yes?
*CRUNCH!*
Trunks:
Vegeta: You're welcome.

GENIUS. Pure genius.

[Insertclevername]

Why would Vegeta want Trunks to use his sword?

[dprez]

Because he knows he is stronger than his son, so he wants him to have every advantage he can.

I'm very interested in why Trunks seems so confident when his father is so much stronger. I really want to see Ssj2 Trunks.

[Michsi]

Probaby to even the odds by letting him use a weapon, I guess.

[Insertclevername]

But still... its not like Trunks is going to slice his dad up, even if he wouldn't really die. I've got a feeling it will break.

[Dorexx]

Trunks is probably Kaioshin'd...

..and keeps it a secret.
