If Ultimate Gohan is back does that mean Gohan doesn't need to train at all? He just has to try really hard? 0.o

Weak ass supreme kai managed to push off boo with that, so an enraged ssr black should have killed her with that.
I would like the point out that Buu did a similar ki pushed to the Supreme Kai and it had him screaming in agony. So, I would assume the same ki blast could rip the flash off a normal person. I mean, a tornado is just a funnel of wind if you break it down.
and people still defend this garbage. :o :o :o

The only way this could've made me cringe harder is if you called him Beasthan.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

[spoiler]Image[/spoiler]
Toyotaro drew the worst one (third guy from the left), but also all the best ones. Tails and Merman are my favourites from the top line, but all of them are unique.
Don't like any of the new two from Toriyama and now that we have all of them, Champa being just a Fat Beerus is more disappointing.
The Clown is easily my favourite of the new ones.

Top 5:
1) Beerus
2) Clown
3) Tails
4) Merman
5) Ganesha

Still disappointed there's not a Falcon God like Horus there.

A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Favourite old DB Animators: Masaki Sato and Tadayoshi Yamamuro
Favourite new DB Animators: Yuya Takahashi and Chikashi Kubota

"This time Gohan is super serious! This top secret character sheet we obtained shows us a Gohan who has the appearance of the power unleashed Ultimate Gohan. See the difference with your own eyes! The strong Gohan who once exceeded his father has returned!"
How can we not get hyped when it says this? He's actually being promoted this time which gives us a valid reason to be hyped.

I also really don't like Toyo's design of the U5 GoD.
Excluding Champa and Beerus, my picks are:
1. Clown U11 GoD
2. Cleopatra U2 GoD
3. Ganesha U10 GoD
... And that's it, really.

No problem, and with that, I avail myself of this mortal coil *suicide bricks self*

He even made him part of the cover in chapter one where he only popped up for a panel. Gohans lack of relevance in the manga is more because Toriyama didn't give him much of a role.
He still could of had Gohan at the victory party or least have him have some interaction with Trunks. Gohan is the ghost in the Super manga.

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 enjoy the design of U5 God, he's totally different from the other gods and that's a good thing, at least for me.

Great Designs: Cleopatra, Clown, Beerus, Tails
Good Designs: Fish, Dwarf, Araku, Elephant
Boring Designs: Champa ( just a fat Beerus ), Mouse, Robot, Furry

Earlier in this thread you'll see them both. Although Gohan's is just the one he has now.

I dont know why, but the Hakaishins definetly look 100 times better in Toriyama's style that in the anime, at least what we have seen from them. Specially the elephant, I don't know why, but I love it. Most people would have expected him to be the biggest or the fatest, yet he isn't. Definetly most of them are great designs. Others...well...
Champa looks really nice now trough.

Edit: Lol, didnt see who designed some of them. Interesting enough, I think Toriyama's one are in general the worst, yet him + Toyotaro are also the best. Toyo by himself has done pretty amazing design but also that terrible furman, and the fox looks better in the anime.

But really, Toyo+Tori next time pls Its not because of the designs themselves, but because of the artstyle.

I never trough I would say this, but please Gohan don't win. U9 can't suck that much...

At this point, this is senseless bashing. It's already been explained to you both in here and in the manga thread regarding the Black and Mai incident. Also, I really would like some examples of someone claiming that the manga is flawless that isn't trolling or bait.

Anime Black should have killed Mai as well with a direct ki blast. Whats your point?

Right know both mediums have logic garbage moments, specially in the Black arc.
