It's something I'll definitely consider once I can judge the arc as a whole (and the soundtrack is out). I get the feeling continuity errors and trying to work with stereo audio may ruin any attempt. We'll see, though!

That said though, would Goku really have to go to the past to learn it? Unless I misunderstood that bit of theorizing and it just meant returning to their own timeline rather than going back to DB or further beyond - Roshi is alive in the main timeline, so there's no reason he couldn't learn it from him there, right?

Be kind of nifty if Tenshinhan also assisted teaching it to Goku.
Why has Goku got to learn it? Let Tien, Roshi or Piccolo do it. A character who comes from nowhere to help would be brilliant.
I'd love nothing more if it got to be one (or both) of them who did it, especially since they could still use Goku and the other stronger fighters to deal with the threat left by Black alone (especially if Black tried to free Zamasu again). My mention of Goku learning and using it is purely because the tease we've gotten says as such.

And while it'd be even better to have the others appear again to do that, it's also nice in a way to see Goku having to go back and learn a technique, and not one that really makes him stronger at all, from people who are also far weaker than him. We haven't really had something like that since he learned the teleporting trick from the Yardat people.

If nothing else, it would be interesting to try.

1. I love the Mafuba.
2. I doubt it is going to be the end to everything.
3. I am getting some major Toyble Dragon Ball AF vibe from this when Xicor was sealed away with a Kaiohshin Mafuba in the Z sword.

Ot maybe Kaioshin was wrong, and he stayed in the sword forever. We'll never know. :shifty:

If I recall correctly he was sealed but broke out like a few minutes after. Anyway, I am getting more and more the feeling that Toriyama-san's comment about Toyble bringing in ideas has already grown fruits.

Not quite. It was said that the seal would last for about a month (I think). Then they fought Broly or something, and it ended.

The sword had a crack in it after Xicor was sealed, and it was revealed that he wouldn't be contained in the sword for much longer. It gave the group enough time to bring back Goku. Too bad Toyotaro didn't finish it, though.

Can't really be. The last sketches I saw from Toyble were when Xicor broke out and even transformed into some weird Super Saiyajin state. Those sketches for some reason and joke even showed Tiencha appearing.

Really? I've only glanced through, so I could have seen an incomplete or incorrect version.

The very last pages were not even fully finished so you might not have payed attention to them.

Well, that's one of the ways to defeat an immortal. It would be stupid if Zamasu's immortality gave out if they hit him really hard, so I guess there wasn't much choice unless Garlic Jr appeared and opened up the Dead Zone again.

This Xicor comes back, transforms and Tiencha also appear part seems to happen after Broly. But as said, those pages are unfinished.

Here's a question. What difference does it make if something is Toei's idea or Toriyama's as long as it's done well and explained. This forum in particular has a nasty habit of Everything Toei = bad, Everything Toriyama = good. Kind of like how most enjoyed the Kaioken coming back, but the moment it appears to be a Toei, it. becomes bad.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

I hate that as well. I think Toei has some great ideas and the Divine Kaiouken is the best moment in Super for me.

I really FAIL to understand how this is pissing people off. Each time they retreated served a purpose.

I have a feeling the time-lines are going to warp and become one or something crazy like that.

This is ruining the arc for me. Goku could have learn the Mafuba after the first escape.
Ruining the arc ??? speak for yourself.....It is a good reason to go back and learn Mafuba
Yes I did spoke for myself, that what's I meant with "for me", pal :eh:

Also yeah, using Mafuba again it's nice, a second escape to the past to go to the future again for the third time? It's annoying in my point of view, sorry

So? It's boring, they come this second time without a proper plan, then Goku realizes that Mafuba could be useful then he go back to the past again? They could stay in the future, escape to another planet, learn other stuff, explore the future universe, anything better than this

I doubt that would happen, they won't complicate this arc even further, I mean we could say that Goku and co. back and forth could create multiple timelines, more Zamasu's, Black's, that would f*** the whole thing :crazy: :lol:
