Champa says "huge wish orbs" so the Kaioshin automatically assumed he was talking about Namek's, but it's probably a different set of balls.

The planet Champa destroyed, in the manga, was because they didn't knew about the balls they were looking for. I think while Planet Namek will hold the answer about these new Dragon Balls, they are not the Namekian Balls.

I don't see why you would even want the Super Dragonballs to be spread in different universes. Rather than opening windows, it'd just close them. Unless you just want multiple alternate Gokus or something, a single new universe is more than enough, since it gets around all the "strongest in the universe" statements from characters in the series, and gives them freedom to just introduce new stronger characters without worrying about what was established in the series before. Involving multiple universes at once would likely just limit what those other universes can have, since they'd all be part of this one arc.

By leaving them as something exclusive to Universe 6, it leaves all the other universes open to later stories, rather than wasting them all in a single arc. Besides, considering the way Toriyama hyped Universe 6, I think it's pretty clear they'll only go there in the near future.

I kinda want them to be planet sized balls just so Goku can freak out. Maybe they align once every something long years. I doubt that's the case, but seeing Goku realize he's possibly standing on a giant Dragon Ball would make me laugh.

Only some months ago I realized this story was filler.

Seeing that Freeza's goons was able to see the Super Dragon Balls from space,its pretty clear that the Super Dragon Ball's are as big as planet but if thats the case,the Dragon form that Dragon Balls will probably be ridiculously huge

Random idea that will never come to pass: the Super Dragon Balls will reflect the desires of those who seek to collect them and reflect them back as image warriors that must be overcome.

You know, I hadn't realized we might get a new dragon with the set Super dragon balls. Do you think we might get a "western" type of dragon? Four limbs plus wings? Or even a wyvern like creature?

I've been thinking about this lately and I figured out that I would love to death, that the new dragon turnt out to be this fellow, that is with us since the beginning;

I was thinking in each universe there would be an amount of Dragonballs corresponding to its universe number. So in universe 6 they would only have to gather 6 of them.

So, these originally aren't Namekian items then?

That's interesting. And it also goes against Beerus calling them "Namekian Wish Orbs". Unless he was only aware of the ones on Namek and not elsewhere?

What? What makes you say they aren't Namekian in origin? I mean, they might not be, but nothing implies that right now.

Beerus was clearly only talking about the balls on (New) Namek. Champa duly notes that, at least for the manga, no one in Universe 7 seems to be aware of the Super Dragon Balls. That would presumably include Beerus, Whis, the Kaioshin, and most likely even the surviving Namekians (seeing how they are all the children of only one survivor), unless given a reason to become informed...which is happening now.

I hope the Super Dragon Balls are not Namekain since other wise how come no one was able to track them down on Namek. I like the idea of a god from another universe to come to Namek to tech the Namekains on how to create Dragon Balls. How else did the Namekains where able to create them?

Why would the Super Dragon Balls have been on Namek for anyone to track down? They can be Namekian in origin without being on Namek. Especially since, assuming the manga is correct in the general concept of the orbs, they are not only are they scattered in space, but they are likely the size of a comet/asteroid/moon/planet/something-relatively-giant-in-space.

Why couldn't they have been made by the alternate universe Namekians?

Before this chapter I started to think that a planet had to be destroyed to reveal a Super DB, but from this chapter it doesn't seem to be the case. Champa was destroying planets because he was pissed about not finding them I take it. :P

I wonder what the Super DB's will do! Will they awaken some Ultimate warrior? Like were they used to seal this warrior away and then put into the 12 Universes so they could never be brought together again. I guess they wouldn't be the usual Dragonballs if they did that though. How about when all the Super DB's are gathered they bring forth the creator of the DB Multiverse, and he's a Dragon... I'd like that. :P
