Well, the Jump special was pre-Oob anyway, so odds are he just hadn't retired the orange colors yet at that point.

Most likely. But he did go back to wearing a symbol; specifically the kame symbol, which he hadn't donned since before Freeza. So, it still kind of fits.

Goku adopting the blue dogi came off as a sign of development for his character to me, even if a bit minor. I don't know why they had to go back and change it the orange, even if it is iconic. It's not like I think he couldn't change to another dogi from the blue one, but putting him in the exact same orange one from the Cell/Buu Arc feels like a wrong step backward to me... I dunno, maybe it's just me. *shurg*
Huh, I noticed that the art on these pages is very superior than the final vectorized art...

You're really comparing a rough draft to a final product?

Yeah, and I agree with him for the most part. For example, the first one on the page, with everyone reacting to the Broli-Vegetto beam clash. It has more dynamic angles and character positioning within the panels that is truer to Toriyama's style than the finalized product. Especially the first one with Goku and Gohan IMO.

I think the original draft has Goku like that because Gogeta prefers it that way. He has his own post-manga comic that keeps Goku in the blue dogi on his own website.

Gives me the feeling that Gogeta Jr. wanted the blue dogi, but Salagir wanted to change it because it reminded him of GT... :|

That comic is also made by him & Salagir, before abandoning it for DBM.

Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

I hope that isn't the real reason because that would be so dumb if it was true. It wasn't even from GT.

Salagir seems to hate GT more than his mother's killer, so it doesn't sound impossible to me.

Now all I can imagine Salagir as is a french Batman, dedicated to wiping out GT rather than crime.

I'm pretty sure it's that very hatred that would stop him from confusing Z with GT.

And I didn't know Salagir worked with him on the other comic, I thought it was Gogeta's own work.

Wait, I was wrong after all. Checking it again, Gogeta Jr. is credited for both script & art. What confused me was a YouTube video of that manga that credited Salagir & Gogeta Jr., seems it was false.

It's interesting who has NOT been seen or even referenced in this manga.

Dr. Gero and the other androids.
The Red Ribbon army in general.
Most of the movie villains (understandable, though, since most of them were terrible).
Master Roshi
Western Kai, or indeed any of the Kais.
Chi-Chi

I guess there was no way to shoehorn them into a tournament plot, though you'd think Gero would be fun to play with. Maybe GT ruined him for Saligir.

I asked about a universe where Chichi was a major fighter, but that was "too out-there".
