This topic if for discussion of the Super manga, not new Viz acquisitions. Even if they're DB related.
Direct translations of the Korean DB Online timeline and guidebook.

Funny video that shows toyotaro workplace I guess , and nice pre-drawings of a chapter , it’s all Japanese but there’s interesting things . I read somewhere that Toriyama corrected god-helles place suggesting a swimming pool , as you can watch in the video ...

Volume 2 - 284,337
Volume 3 - 236,720
Volume 4 - 267,417

I personally think that Volume 5 will sell more than Volume 1 eventually.

I think its possible broly Kale won't even be in the manga. Just as that giant Rebriabe form.

In the next chapter I expect a Universe to go out if not even 2 universes. Don't think Toyotaro will spend a lot of time with most of the characters.

Broly Kale will be in the manga, it's the entire point of her character. I can see it now, Cabba is trusting in her power that Kale is hiding, but it'll backfire when he finds out exactly why Kale tries to hide it

I can’t wait for the next one , I’d like more differences with the anime , a chapter without u7 focus will be great .
Kale -broly is a good chance to get rid of lots of fighters fast , but keep the different approach for kale character will be good too , I really enjoyed how she was introduce here in the manga .
Man I wish to have a weekly chapter to feed me , one month is eternal , I hope , if this manga doesn’t stop , To be include in the weekly Shōnen jump in 2019 , but I guess is the main course of v-jump and I’ll be hard to move , also that implies to the artist to draw 3-4 more pages per week

Oooh I like that idea. Would be interesting to see Cabba get knocked by Kale. I hope he gets proper screentime before his elimination unlike Krillin and Tenshinhan.

I kinda hope the next chapter will be centered around Universe 2 or 11 instead. I have a feeling it will be U11 after seeing the Zoiray Sketch by Toyotaro on Twitter. It'd be odd to put a lot of focus on U6 in the very next chapter. There should be a bit of breathing room after what happened with Frost.

I have faith in Toyotaro being able to write a good Kale. So far his Kale is definitely interesting and mysterious, so I hope she won't be a Broly-clone in personality too once she transforms. She should definitely be uncontrolled and bloodthirsty, but she doesn't have to scream Goku's name over and over like she did in the anime - actually she doesn't have to need a reason to fight Goku all, if the two must fight then it could happen casually.

It's the highest four week total of any Dragon Ball Super volume so far.

I'm guessing next chapter will be about brol- i mean kale going berserk and it will end with jiren one shotting her. I wonder if toyotaro will have goku use ssb against her. He does treat ssb as a very special form, only being used against characters who are actually at that level or above

I doubt it . In the anime from the start of the exhibition matches, Goku used blue vs EVERYONE and in the manga we only saw it vs Toppo and presumably Freeza off screen. He didn’t even use it vs 17 who is the star of this arc

I doubt Toyotarõ will jump to the U6 Saiyans immediately. He paved two plots at the start of the tournament: Freeza/Frost and #18/Ribrianne.

My hope is 60% dedicated to #18 and the rest to what the other Universes are doing whilst setting up for next month Vegeta interacting with Universe 6; be it Cabba, Hit, Caulifla or Kale.

I doubt it, since Toyotaro is also a Broly fanboy, so we can expect much more homages than in the anime.

Where did you read that he’s a broly fanboy ?
I read that Toei came up with kale-broly and Toriyama with caoulifla

Since broly was in AF iirc people think he’s a huge broly fan

Well tbh, that's kind of what Broly is like. Interesting and mysterious. I think that people forget that before becoming a brooding monster, he was a quiet, mysterious, polite, and unnervingly weird empty looking guy.

In fact, I would say that manga Kale so far is more like Broly than her anime counterpart who seemed more Hinata like.
