DBS manga just keeps erasing Gohan plot points.

Time travel is sure in the game, unless 18 and 17 kept their old clothes.

God dang it why do you guys want to see the manga do the exact same things as the anime at this point? If it's going to be so far behind, I'd rather see it have radically different beats.
I mean I can see wanting that in some cases, but I guess specifically with Buu, that fight in the anime was great and left nothing much to be desired. I dunno, I'm not bummed at all that that the manga may not do it.
I just started Super for the first time after not watching any of the anime since DBZ back in the late 90s.
Man, I am really enjoying myself. Beerus is pretty cool,
and I am excited to see where it goes from here. Though I will say, 3-4 episodes of him saying "IM NOT EVEN 100% YET" is pretty classic DB lol

The next arc has a big dip in visual quality since the production basically collapses at that point, it gets better with every arc after that though.

Yeah I really don't need them to justify each other. I'm happy that I essentially get two stories to read/watch. I've been enjoying the manga so far.

It would be hilarious to bring it full circle, but it won't happen, you won't get Dyspopoint.
You'll get Dyspointed.
I'm sorry
not really
Yes and no. A bonus chapter had him training in the gravity room because he noticed no one was asking him to help out lately.

So dumb. Piccolo should have been in that scene.

I take it this chapter wasn't published on the normal Viz Manga reading page?
Speaking of, I really don't like or understand 18's clothing choice for the Tournament of Power. Everyone else is dressed in some fighting garb (or, in 17's case, him being called in on such a short notice and not likely ), yet 18 looks more like she's out for a jog than ready for a fight. Maybe she'll discard it she needs to "get serious", it's slightly jarring is all.
Also, of course it's pink. They just "happened" to choose that color for the only woman on the team.

Nope, it'll be in the physical release though.

why, you want Piccolo to keep being nothing more than Gohan's hypeman/meatshield?
Eh... Gohan taking initiative by himself is a good thing.
Vegeta better start charging for Gravity room uses.
Pay for Bra's college tuition real fast.

One thing the manga changes a lot is... Buu.
He won't get his time to shine.
So... does Toriyama hate Buu or something? I mean, it looks like his fight wasn't on his notes, so he always intended him to get replaced by Freeza, and little else.

On a scale from 1 to 10, 1 being Toei's love for Goku and 10 being Bandai's consideration of 17, I'd say Toriyama's disdain for Buu is a decent 7.

i don't think he has much to worry about married to Bulma

More like Toriyama doesn't know what to do with him after his arc was finished
Huh? That's not true at all. Before the GP even talks about deletion Zeno literally says that the Universes aren't progressing properly and that it's pointless to keep them all, that can literally only mean one thing.

It was still Gohan himself that wanted to restart his training in the anime.
I don't like Toyotaro's handling of Gohan returning to training, it feels like an after thought and I doubt his version of the arc will have any of the emotional stuff for Gohan that the anime has had.
Undead Fantasy

But he did that as well in the anime. He was the one that asked Piccolo to train him.
Edit: Beaten again.
True.
I'm extremely worried about this...
Are... Are you saying Buu needs a Toriyama handjob?
Buu was bounced around by Basil
People thought Goku was bad about "letting his guard down" will tear their hair out for Buu
Goku needs to be hunted for a couple of years by an assassin to train his don't let his guard down skills
I think Toriyama just sees Buu as a comic relief character. There's already so many protags and none of them can really get killed off to make room for anyone else so he probably just views him as an easy character to sideline.
It's a shame because as a kid when I saw Buu was good I always wanted to see him get to do more stuff. But it seems whenever DB gets a continuation Buu always gets sidelined immediately.
18's not really much of a martial artist so I doubt she has any gi. The tracksuit makes sense for her, she probably just picked something she can move around comfortably in.

Goku could hire Hit for that.
And Toppo does to Cabba

Imagine if Vegeta sacrifices himself for Cabba.

Maybe. However, I can believe him getting a power up if he is training in the gravity room than him training with Piccolo for like an hour and suddenly being able to hit SSB Goku.

Beerus would be pissed
It was more like 30 hours.

+ More than a year of training.
Gohan returned to training right after Freeza was defeated, this arc is a year after the Champa arc.
He trained for a year following the Freeza situation, then was able to get his Ultimate form back with Piccolo in episode 88. Off-screen, he got even stronger than that as well by the time episode 90 rolled around.

It doesn't make it sound any less ridiculous. At least in the manga it could have been days, weeks, or months.

Zeno just says that they're annoyed by how many there are and losing interest in observing all those universes. It's the Grand Priest that proposes outright destroying them as a solution.
It seems like the logical suggestion
Like he said there are too many universes then the reasonable assumption would be to get rid of few
Doesn't really prove anything
Did the manga mention mortal levels yet?
This is the most predictable thing that could happen.
Goku should train under Quintella.
Not by name but a similar concept probably the same thing
Also why would he do that He has familia
You expect Toei to care?
Toei only knows the extremes of the Vegeta dichotomy.
No fucks given Vegeta.

Vegeta will probably say he did it instinctively.
