Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
When Beerus said when the Dinosaurs where rude to him then maybe Earth did had sapient dinosaurs millions of years ago. By rude, it sounds like that they where not very nice to him when he arrive on Earth 65 million years ago. Earth in DB is a fictional earth then ours, so anything is possible.

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
They have sentient dinosaurs in in "present time" DB -- The pterodactyl that kidnaps Bulma talks to her and Giran is a sentient dinosaur. Maybe they are endangered species, though. That said, all sentient animals other than like Pu'ar, Oolong, Karin, and Turtle are being phased out so maybe smart dinosaurs are gone, too.Hellspawn28 wrote:When Beerus said when the Dinosaurs where rude to him then maybe Earth did had sapient dinosaurs millions of years ago.

What I really want in Super are references to The Dog King/Emperor. He was the best.
Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
When chapter one came out I thought the manga was pretty pointless. I have changed my mind now. I love the retelling of the two movies, hopefully Yamcha will replace Muten Roshi in the fight against those 1000 soldiers.
Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
why not just have both? It'd be awesome to see all the Z fighters fighting Frieza mooks. I just hope piccolo doesn't job to the red guy.Jaetinh wrote:When chapter one came out I thought the manga was pretty pointless. I have changed my mind now.

Didn't Tien said in ROF to tell Yamcha and Chazou to stay away because it was too dangerous?

Apparently, there were some pages from chapter 3 that were released during the Jump Victory Carnival.

Did Kaio want to find out about SSGod?

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
If those images are legit, it looks like in the near future we really might see an explanation of how Kaio got his planet back.
...Likely right as Goku and Beerus wreck the place.

Ah, that makes sense, I completely overlooked the fact that we see it pop back into existence.alakazam^ wrote:Kaiou asked Muuri to bring back his planet.
I guess this takes place not long after the Buu Arc then and is just a Little bonus, rather than being part of the BoG plot.

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
This isn't chapter 3, it's a special chapter that explains how Kaio got his planet back!

Where is this special chapter from? They couldn't possibly have the next issue of V-Jump already.

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
Jump Victory Carnival (previously the "Saikyo V Jump Festa") is taking place right now. Each year, the event gets its own little booklet that contains information about the event, promotions, etc. They also include special bonus chapters from V-Jump / Saikyo Jump / etc. authors. There have been contributions from Toyotaro for the last several years; 2013 and 2014 were Victory Mission bonus chapters. Naho Ooishi also contributed bonus chapters of Dragon Ball SD the same two years with Trunks travelling back in time (and a short two-page comic the year before that).UpFromTheSkies wrote:Where is this special chapter from?

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
Eh, I think I liked it better with Battle of Gods and Super's implication that he restored it himself. Like when Goku asks why he doesn't fix the house he destroyed with the car with his powers, instead of building it all from scratch again as we see him do.
Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
I think Kaio was asking for something else (?) but Goku jumped in and asked to restore the planet.
Kaio certainly seemed disappointed after it all.

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
Maybe he just wanted his planet back to it's original size so that he had more space to drive, but Goku wished for it to be restored back from when Cell blew it up (because he didn't know any better)? Hard to say without knowing the language. xD

Re: Super's manga by Toyotarō
Kaio has asked Muri to come over so that he can use the dragon balls to restore his planet. Kaio wants to wish for a bigger planet, with a race track, a gorgeous house, etc. Goku suddenly pops by (he heard Kaio was having his planet restored), and says the planet would be no good for training if it were like that, so instead he wishes for it to be restored to exactly the same as before. Then he says he needs to get back to his fieldwork before Chi Chi yells at him, and takes off. Kaio is quite upset that his planet's exactly the same size as before. Muri seems unconcerned and takes his leave.
