I'm not certain of anything with the image so unclear and the possibility of art mistakes. But it looks like her bang might be different/thinner, she has more makeup on her eyes and more gold ring things on top of her hair.

There's also the horn looking things that I originally thought might be the new character's other hand. Looking at it again, he's not holding out his other open palm though, because he's holding his staff down to his side behind Towa with that hand...

Exactly. And the horns could be hair topknots, maybe...

Are they playing against each other? I didn't know you could do that.

They can, they've had tournaments before.

The misterious entity already appears in the new chapter of Super Dragon Ball Heroes. Now if only someone could translate what Towa says, we should find out something that might be interesting.

Towa's new form also appears.

Anxious to find out whether Towa's new form is a powered-up version of her Dark form, or a new Base as is said Dark form.

Hmmm...

Researching, it looks like the new character is named "メチカブラ/Mechikabura" after the same Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo song lyrics? It's spelled "mechicka boola" in the English version, so I guess Mechickaboola it is...? Kinda a mouth full. Then again, the "bura" part may be a nod to "Dabura" here.

I guess I'll wait for Kanzenshuu's guys confirmation and for them to name him. They're more informed than I. lol

EDIT: I just remembered that Toyotaro is going to be at NY Comic Con next weekend. What I wouldn't give to have someone try and ask him about the missing names for the Heroes avatars: Freeza Clan Berserker, Namekian Elite & Majin Elite. It bugs my OCD that they're the only ones nameless in Victory Mission.

I believe the lyrics are "Magicabula, Kettisencula, Bibidi, Babidi, Boo...", though to keep in convention with Dabura's name, let's call him Magicabura.

Everywhere I've looked, these are the lyrics, with his name being the part in bold:

Salagadoola mechicka boola bibbidi-bobbidi-boo
サラガドゥラ メチカブラ ビビディ バビディ ブゥ

Ohhhh, that part of the song, the one with the Salaga.

Then it is Mechikabura.

Mechikabura/Mechickaboola/whatever was revived by Towa using the energy stolen from strong people. He calls her his "dear subbordinate". His body is rusty so he can't move properly but Towa suggests using the seven orbs created by the person next to her (brainwashed Dende?), which can grant any wish. This way, Mechikabura can become young again and take revenge on the Time Kaioushin.

Lo and behold, it turns out the Dragon Balls scatter and they have to gather them to make a wish, which annoys Towa. No problem though, because Mechikabura soon finds where one of them has headed, crossing space-time. Towa is about to go get it but Mechikabura urges her to wait: he'll grant her Demon God powers.

That's all I could find.

Was it ever explained how one becomes a Demon God, in either mission dialogue or supplemental content? It's probably going to be "No" given that this is Dragon Ball Heroes. I think I recall Demigra doing so by gathering kiri instead of stealing Toki Toki, like with Dragon Ball Xenoverse. Curious what method the new character used (assuming it's not kiri-based).

This scan mentioned Demigra gathering kiri to become a Demon God.

Thank you, I wasn't quite sure if I recalled that right.

Revenge on Kaioshin of Time? Poor goddess. Always being such an annoyance to the demon people, first Demigra, now him. :P

And Towa's new form is probably her Demon God form, huh? Interesting, so that probably means it would be her final and strongest form (unless she has a giant form and then a smaller form than is base one...).

And speaking of Demigra (yeah, I mentioned him in the last parentheses in case you didn't notice xD), I'm pretty sure his new form is explained in the V-Jump's issue, just like Super Mira. Too bad I can't find a good picture to post it here.

Demon God Towa, eh? Has a nice ring to it. Hopefully this will be her last form, as I don't think she needs as many forms as Saiyans. But that's just me, at least.

There's also this bit you translated back during the Makai Birth Arc that still dips into the Xenoverse plan with Toki Toki:
  • Demon God Demigra: I'm the future Demigra, who has turned into a Demon God. Foolish past self, use Tokitoki's power and you'll turn into a God that rules over the time of the whole Universe. Now, behold my past self that gained power!
That out of the way, I like all the new content and info, but so far it's just feeling like yet another rehash of Piccolo Daimao.
