Ehh. I know what you're talking about and it's not really returning the hug. He pretty much taps Gohan on the back and then pushes him off.

Yea, it's more or less the same as the manga.

Wait, which are you referring to? The hug definitely isn't the same, because that's a panel of the two hugging.

The Vegeta seen is basically the same though. He still does the "I haven't held you since you were a baby".

I remember The huh in the manga, Goku is just like "Yea ok" while the Anime changed slightly?

No? The manga is literally just a panel of the two mutually hugging. That the anime added a bit where Gohan hugs first and Goku doesn't return it until just before he pulls him iff is totally different.

Affection is just really weird with Goku and Vegeta. Goku because apparently he still hasn't gotten used to the whole family thing, and Vegeta because even now he's still kind of an asshole.

Goku's been a father for over 10 years though. How does long he need to get used to the concept?

Hell he hugged Gohan during the beginning of Z.

Well I'm enjoying the reactions to it on other sites, which was my main reason for being happy.

He is noticeably skinnier, though, and the aura's probably just unfinished.

The most popular current theory to explain this is that Goku just figured out how to tap into enough of his Godly Ki to transform Saiyan Beyond God into Super Saiyan God.

Well, this should be interesting. Technically we have nothing right now saying it's going to somehow being stronger than Blue, but otherwise what's the point, in which case, hilarious.

The manga had it faster than Blue, right? My guess is that it's going to be a way to get it fast enough to get through Hit's time skip/reach Dyspo's speed without using Kaioken to destroy his body.

In today's video, Masako talks about his interpretation of Vegito's life should his fusion stay permanent.

Ignoring some relatively inconsequential details he got wrong (because that seems to be a running theme with his videos), I rather liked that "What If" scenario. It can be a fun one to think about. Although one thing he got "wrong" is that Toriyama probably wouldn't have Vegetto count as two Saiyans for the Super Saiyan God ritual, he'd just have it take five Saiyans instead of six (ya know, assuming Toriyama was the one who wrote that).

I'm also not sure if Vegetto would defuse. After all, he'd have spent the last four years as himself building his own identity. Defusing would be essentially killing himself.

Didn't matter to the fused Kabito and Shin, but I suppose to each their own.

That or it's still six Saiyans, and they either bring Tarble back to replace Vegeta in the ritual, or they can't pull it off at all and Vegito has to try beating Beerus with just Super Saiyan 3; might work somewhat with Movie!Beerus, wouldn't do shit against DBS!Beerus.

Well Vegito has a strong personality.

If enough time passes he'd prolly want to assert his existence like Sugilite from Steven Universe.

I find it funny that the anime is bringing back SSG when Goku is fighting alongside hit when the manga brought it back for Goku fighting against Hit.

Anyway, now that the Future Trunks arc is done in the manga - how necessary do you find the destruction of Trunks' timeline to be to the resolution of the arc? It did resolve the Zen-Oh button without making it an easy solution or wasting the build up, and it definitely established Zen-Oh as someone not to be toyed with. However, the impact is really cheapened by just creating another timeline and the fact that Trunks is written out anyway, so it feels largely like a waste of time.

At the very least, the ending would make sense if it was a reason to get Trunks to join the main cast. But if he's being written out, I think that leaving him in his timeline and establishing Zen-Oh some other way would be better.

One other idea I had was for Zen-Oh to still destroy the timeline but have the team manage to evacuate the future Earthlings and Trunks and have them move to Universe 6 (which adds a moral dilemma when Trunks has to fight for Universe 6 to protect his people in the Tournament of Power).

Thoughts?

I mean, didn't Fused Zamas kill the rest of the Earthlings anyways when he pulled a Super Buu in one of the previous chapters?
