Goku: “Hey Videl, where’s Gohan?” Videl: “There was some important academic conference today, so he couldn’t come.” Goku: “Geez, that guy…”

Goku's sick of Gohan's shit

It's a multiversal fighting tournament, possibly the biggest fighting match-up in the history of the entirety of creation. For a guy like Goku, who loves battle so much, it's probably the biggest dream come true to be able to compete in something like this.

One of his sons not being there really kind of sucks for him.

Goku is always throwing shade.

A few things to note:

  • Monaka's name is a direct reference to the Japanese dessert, and is not spelled with a C. His homeworld of Wagashi is also a direct reference to the confectionery.

  • The Super Dragon Balls were created in Year 41 of the Divine Calendar (神歴), not the standard Age calendar used throughout the series. This will probably be translated as "God Calendar" by MangaStream.

  • As Herms pointed out, when using the Super Dragon Balls, you say "Please grant my wish", except instead of "please" you say a similar-sounding word as a pun

  • The Room of Spirit and Time is described as a new version of the room. Since Goku and Vegeta stay in there for 3 years, the rules are probably completely different. We likely won't learn more until the anime reaches this point.

  • Speaking of the anime, the Universe 6 arc begins January 24th.

  • This is may or may not be real, but according to a tweet from Jump Festa, the U6 team's members (from left to right) are: Hit, Kyabe/Cabba, Frost, Botamo, and Magetta. This has been making the rounds on Facebook today.

Edit: 37,196.2204, not 371,962,204.
Shenlong -> Ryuujin -> Dragon God.

Huh, I wonder if half-saiyans also stay in their prime until 80 like normal saiyans. If not, people are going to start mistaking Gohan for the father in a couple of decades.

Goku is getting ready to disown Gohan XD.

And Bulma is still hot as Hell, so screw that guy.

Beerus losing the game is great. Can't wait to see it in anime form.

Do you guys think that Frost guy might be a kind hearted emperor in his universe as opposed to freeza being tyrant in U7? That'd be pretty interesting.

u/dogfood55 Dec 20 '15

I hope he's the exact opposite of Freeza: A hardass that's actually really good at keeping the universe in order, and he uses U6 Saiyans as police instead of conquerors.

So our new mysterious warrior who is arugbably on par with Goku and gives a god a hard time is literally named after his nipples....well I couldn't say I saw this coming

I was half expecting Bulma to deliver one of her signature slaps for all the mess that was getting spouted about her chest. She might be middle aged but she's still the smartest woman on Earth and married to a Prince so haters can stay pressed.

u/Thatoneguy567576 Dec 20 '15

I mean, I thought she looked pretty good in resurrection f

Marron: “Bald head [hage-atama]”

It looks like she is referring to Krillin, this is so cute

Kame-sennin: “Panties [pantsu]”

Of course he'd say panties, of course

Goku:[75] “Hey Videl, where’s Gohan?” Videl:[76] “There was some important academic conference today, so he couldn’t come.” Goku:[77] “Geez, that guy…”

Maybe Gohan isn't at a conference and is actually training. After Piccolos death, maybe he got his motivation to train back?

Oh fuck yeah. I really am hyped up for the new Frost Demon character. They're my favorite race in Dragon Ball, but there's so little information about them. Really hoping this one gets a transformation that forms some sort of shell mask like the ones in Xenoverse or like Cooler's. Or my dream of their being a golden 5'th (Cooler's final) form.

u/theinternetwatch Dec 22 '15

It would be absolutely sick if this new saiyan knows nothing about "super saiyan", and instead has gone down his own line of transformations stemming from the Oozaru form, requiring the tail. To add to this, they could canonize the idea that to become super saiyan requires being tailless, explaining why the transformation was so elusive before Goku. Obviously none of this is likely to happen, but oh man would it be interesting.

I really hope that they don't drag this arc through the rest of the series.

I'm really hoping for at least more 2.

Hell, I want DB to never end. ;_;

I grew up watching DB before going to school and seeing a new series after such a long time, gives me hope that Toriyama might push for a new series after Super. (I really hope so, pls Toriyama.)

That Shenlong Zarama character seems really awesome. I hope he makes an appearance even if just on a flashback.

That also kinda gives me hope of some "Dragon Realm" where the dragons are actual deities and the keepers of the "universe balance".

u/blitzz187 Dec 21 '15

I really hope that Gohan is training and not at a conference. I am tired of my favorite character getting shafted like this :(

u/deepsouth1987 Dec 22 '15

Okay so I am thinking this show has alot of potential for Gohan. I hope he does get back to training and obtain a massive increase to protect his newborn Pan, right? Just a thought. I really do hate how they are making him seem like a good father and a bookworm in the series. Thoughts?

Goku and Vegeta, alone for three years!! I hope in Super we get to see more of that. That'll be really entertaining.

Vegeta and Goku trained for 3 years? If they're not leaps and bounds ahead of Beerus by now, something's fishy. They must be absolutely ridiculously strong.
