Most other months since it became popular, for that matter. This is probably the least overblown negativity we've had in ages.

You people speak like those things had patents, Goku was so close to Merged Zamasu so he made a hole in MZ's chest. Can't nobody receive a wound like that anymore? MZ and Cell is very similar, but what's the problem? Vegetto launched his attack from the building and it made into one side of Zamasu. I don't remember how Cell got his, but it was different, just the wound is the same.
The issue doesn't come from the wound being the same, it comes from the Panel shot being the same. You put up the Zamasu and Cell shot side by side, and it's a very close match. I would just prefer it if was drawn differently.

I mean, I know Merged Zamasu can regenerate but this technique seem very... unorthodox. Much like how Merged Zamasu suddenly had the ability to attack via portals like Janemba did.
I think this is the manga version of cloud Zamasu.

At this point, we just kinda have to accept that that's what Toyotaro does. Whether it be for the sake of homage or whether Toyotaro simply can't draw certain things very well, it's been here from day 1 and it isn't going away anytime soon.

Way better than the last two chapters. But for the love of god, just end the damn arc already. We already know that the Zenoh button is going to be pressed, there is no surprise.

You know... I think I'm fine with that. As long as they keep their filthy, incorrectly-opinionated fingers off of this thread.

I've accepted it a long time ago. For the most part Toyotaro does his own art and I like it. I don't mind the occasional homage, like with the Goku and vegeta fight pose when they were in the ROSAT.

I just think Toyotaro is capable of doing his own thing and feel he should.

That's not a real issue. To show that kind of wound, there's no better than a frontal point of view, not to speak about how to show a hole in the chest. It's just well done camera work.

Hmm. That actually is a good alternative to that scenario in the anime.

This is what happens when you get an untalented fanfic writer to write your manga. As usual some Goku fan's will find ways to glide through the hoops needed to defend this mess. Embarrassing.

My hopes for the manga surpassing the anime and thus having the storyboard of the anime being based on the manga are fading away with every new chapter that comes out.

Why hasnt this arc ended already??

When the first Universe Survival Arc trailer came out, it was clearly using manga panels, so we know Toyotaro has been working on the TOP Arc, but for some reason he wont finish this arc.

Maybe issue is too strong a word as I'm not even saying that this is something that ruins my experience in any way. I'm just saying it doesn't have to be a matching shot. It can be from a frontal view without it being identical.

If ending it early will result in a similar product to the anime then he should take his time. I would've loved to get the tournament's chapters by now but I also want everything to flow naturally so in the long run this is better.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

It has to be a frontal and a full size body or almost shot. That if you want to show it right.

Let me know how would you show that better. From the back? You miss the face. From further? You miss detail and expression. No man, that was the right call.
