I... still don't really like the Yamcha manga. It was funny at first due to its insanity but now it's just one of those really stupid fanfics that are a dime a dozen. Except it's official.

Wait what, that Yamcha manga's official!?

I thought for sure that was someone's silly fanfic...

No, it's official. It was created by the Dragon Ball Group, a subset of Shueisha, and published by the same.

@Handsome Rob: No, but Freeza would see that Beerus and the other Destroyers are scared of Zen'o.

Freezais a lot of things, but he's not an idiot.

More importantly, he would have been told about Zen'o erasing the losing teams.

See, this is why having one person voice two characters and use basically the exact same voice for both of them is a bad idea. During that pummel rush, it just sounded like I was in an echo chamber.

Although that shot of Gohan flying towards SSJBK Goku looked really freaking cool.

I wonder if Fused Zamasu will have a variant where half his face and his arm are purple and melting.

So what do you guys expect out of the Universe 7 fighters in terms of techniques used and the like.

17 and 18 lack some of the fine control of the Z Warriors (they've mostly just fired basic energy blasts and the like, though 17 has his barrier, and 18 did learn the destructo-disk).

Piccolo has his Hellzone grenade and the like. Tien has the Kikohou / Tri Beam and Solar Flare / Taiyouken.

Roshi is weak, but might have hundreds of techniques we've never seen him use yet.

If the opening is anything to go by, Goku may not have used everything in his arsenal (he revealed Kaioken blue during the universe 6 tournament out of nowhere despite constantly training alongside Vegeta).

With all the frustration I've been feeling over some of the decision made in Super, I'm at least hoping we'll get some good fights out of this.

I kind of hope that 17 and 18 use that double ki blast barrage they used to kill Gohan (only, you know, without the killing).

Dragon Ball Super Manga leaks of chapter 24 *Spoilers*

Trunks can use healing powers because he trained as Kaioshin's disciple. But Trunks can only heal one person, and it seems to take a lot out of him. Because he can only heal once, Vegeta insists that Trunks heals Goku. Not him. Goku is able to take on Fusion Zamasu head-on all by himself. Trunks is shocked, and Vegeta explains that Goku "mastered" SSB.

What the flying fuck.

Trunks having healing powers is cool. Exceedingly few characters in the series have that and I can get behind their reasoning. However, SSJB Goku is a match for Fused Zamasu. If that's the case, why did they need to fuse into Vegetto in the first place? If Goku can match Fused Zamasu then SSJB Vegetto should be able to atomize him by just blinking in his general direction.

It doesn't matter if it's the manga or the anime, Super is just shit. A lot of really cool moments but otherwise shit.

The full translation of the chapter isn't out yet, but if that's all there is too the chapter then I'll fully prepared to bash it. Since Toyotaro doesn't change the plot of the outline by very much, this'll be the thing that proves the Future Trunks Saga was just bad to begin with.

Reminds me of the scene in the Buu saga when Goku's looking for people to fuse with. He dismisses the idea of fusing with Hercule because it would probably just make him weaker. So, maybe Vegeta's lack of SSG mastery weakened Vegito.

Okay, I'm not serious, I just wanted to say it anyway.

Can't agree with that. Future Trunks Saga in the anime is awesome and is my top 3 favorite arcs. The manga version is only okay.

I'm looking at the overall outline, and from that I can call this Saga anything but mediocre.

This might have been a spot where Toriyama needed to do more than outline things from the sounds of it.

Ooh, Merged Zamasu and SSB Vegetto.

I don't even have Xenoverse 2 yet (waiting for Switch release) and I'm excited.

And yeah, Zamasu better have his Two-Face look as an alt.

Manga Zamasu is just a joke.

#57200: May 17th 2017 at 12:55:19 PM

More spoilers from chapter 24. Goku can't actually Merged Zamasu, but he can try and stall him until the fusion wears out. The chapter ends with Goku getting tired and wondering if he can hold Zamasu off for a few more minutes. Meanwhile Zamasu is pissed off and done playing around, so everything is looking grim. Plus they're still screwed if they unfuse since Black can take a tired Goku since Zamasu has unlimited stamina and free healing.

Not trying to salvage this chapter to anyone that cared about the manga, since if Vegeta knew about Goku's transformation that means Goku had this ability before the Black arc even began.
