Be interesting if instead of being disqualified, the Vargas let them re fuse and U18 Goten accidently fused with the wrong Trunks and vice versa.

Great Saiyaman I wrote:But they're not identical. One grew up with Goku and Vegeta as his dads. The other grew up with Vegetto. There's a heckuva lot of stuff that would change. Bra is a completely different sister. Vegetto goes all over the galaxy and has probably brought Trunks along, experiencing different things. And having one dad instead of two means that Goten and Trunks share the same father experience rather than two, and two moms also have to share him, which lead to happy/stressed/angry/etc. experiences. They may be similar but not identical.
Which is why I said they are pretty much identical and why I said they behave and think pretty much identically. Their differences are negliable.

The differences between the two universes could be enough to make them grow up to be significantly different, but then again, maybe they wouldn`t create significant differences. This last case is what the authors of DBM are going for.

A battle of failed Fusions still would have been better. Because one way or another, one of them would still lose and the other would win. And that winner would go on to have other matches, with successful Fusion attempts, later in the tournament.

So far this Gotenks battle is boring. Not that much in my taste and also not that entertaining.
I hope I see some differences between them two. If the point is just to show that they are totally alike, I hope that the fight becomes short. :P

EDIT: To add, I believe that the way they have made the two Gotenks being so similar is just as stupid as people thinking that twins are exact copies of each other (like in Disney movies).
Just because of that you have had the same upbringing in the same environment with even the same activities, it doesn't mean that you will think exactly the same or even do exactly the same thing.
It's like the butterfly effect theory. Even one minor happening or influence may change events dramatically. This was even shown in Dragonball with Trunks even mentioning that his time travel made some pretty huge changes in history, even though what he did was to only speak a couple of sentences to Goku.
It's a fun gag, sure. I guess that it's too much to ask for a fan comic to be more in depth, especially since they rather focus on Broly for many pages rather than one of the most funny and awkward results of fusion in the whole series (fat Gotenks, skinny Gotenks or just Gotenks as a person in general). What I mean with that is that someone like Gotenks should have gotten a much greater space in DB:M in my opinion. But if Gotenks is going to be such a bore as he is now, then I guess that it's for the best.

They should do the exact same attacks a few times, get bored, and then just try to fuse with each other out of sheer curiosity.

Then they're both disqualified for technically disappearing at the same time.

I agree that one of them being a failed fusion would have been both funny and a more interesting fight. I actually expected Trunks and Goten from Universe #18 to fail at the fusion dance since they probably did not perform it since they where kids, wheras the other duo might have done it several times since while training with Vegetto and Bra and been successful. *shrug* This is cool too though as we all dreamed of an adult version of Gotenks. 8)

P.S. I agree with Shiyonasan in that the panel showing the two Gotenk's punching should have been from different angles. It just seems to me that even if they both used a right cross their faces and the position of their arms would be on different sides.

Yes, but that doesn't mean that every single detail of their actions must be identical. I'm still attributing this to the author's laziness.

Its not lazyness when its done with a point... Its lazyness when its done simply because its easier to do it that way and no other reason...

And even if it was lazyness... So what? The overall result is not pleasing? Does it not really show us the message that he wanted to transmit, that they are pretty much identical and think the same way when it comes to fight?

I really can`t understand some criticism, but I respect your opinion.

Anyway, bad news. Apparently the release schedule is going to decrease to 2 pages a week. Gogeta Jr is very busy in his day job so, sooner or later, that will happen, or they will put some more "fillers". At least, that was what Salagir told the translators.

I don't see how you can call Salagir lazy when he's put in 150+ pages of great quality...all on her free time.

I don't know why but this page made me laugh. Maybe it's because they're going to try to surprise each other by doing the exact same thing. Like I said before this match will be won by luck, not wits. Who knows, maybe one of them has special technique the other don't have.

Also something very interesting I noticed about this page. In the third panel I thought the image was flipped and simply pasted to the last panel. But when I look at it closely it's actually two separate images. Gogeta Jr. drew the same image twice instead of copying and pasting the first image. Now I know it's no big deal but I'm impressed. If it was me I just would've flipped my drawing in Photoshop and calling it a day.

Did you see that? One of them hasn't transformed but already has less eyebrow. According to SSJ3, this means that he is more powerful and has already won the fight.

But really, although this is kinda funny, these pages get a lot more tiresome when you only get one page every few days, you know? You just want them to hurry up. If it were being released in several pages every week, it'd be better, but oh well.

It's a testament to Gotenks' intelligence when he thinks the other one won't transform. :lol:

The first panel maybe indicates that the left Gotenks got more damage? If you check the previous page, the left Gotenks seems to have acquired a little bit more damage.
If one of them was stronger, even by a small bit, that would be awesome.
But it's kind of far-fetched...

Would be nice if one of them won though, so that Goten and Trunks' statement about Gotenks finally defeating Buu became true. Fat Buu is a good candidate for fighting Gotenks.

The way the tournament-so-far is set up, it makes me think 18/Arale will fight Goku next. If thats how it is, then we should be seeing whoever Gotenks wins this, fight Fat Buu, and Vegetto will meet up with Goku a lot sooner than we think. Super Namek vs Cell and Vegeta vs U13 Vegeta anyone?

I'm not calling him an overall lazy person. Just in that situation, he took the lazy route.

I think that the layout of the fights will look like this:

Ignore the winners of the fights that haven`t happened yet. They are fan predictions not made by me. But I think that the layout itself will be the layout used in the tournament. So, it would be impossible for 18/arale to fight against Goku before the final match.

Perhaps, if it doesn't get interupted, by some main villain/major problem or something...,
