Isn't his Super Saiyan Blue Extreme or whatever it is already stronger than this? I guess destruction ki could be an option for him

Dragon Ball Super |OT6| The waiting game
- Thread starter ArchedThunder
- Start date
Thought the chapter was surprisingly pretty solid. I wouldn't mind more chapters like this that steer away from Goku and co. but I know we aren't getting many of those.
I'm calling it right now though that Granolah isn't going to be the villain of this arc. He might be a villain at first but eventually there's gotta be some sort of greater evil to fight here.

Bruh that chapter was very good. The tease with Vegeta learning from Beerus as Goku learns from Whis has some GREAT potential. As a massive Vegeta fan, I hope this pans out. I know there's a 99% chance that it won't pan out in the way I'd like for it to, but hopefully it's not as bad as the ending of the Moro arc where Vegeta was hyped to hell and still fell on his face.
I'll keep it a buck.
I've talked shit about a great amount of Super.
I've talked shit about damn near most of the Super manga.
I didn't like the Future Trunks Arc.
The Moro Arc was trash.
But this latest chapter...was pretty good.
- Granola is already waaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy better than Merus. He's not some super pretty boy from a super strong race. Mans has PTSD, he got his ass kicked this chapter, he's dealing with a lot. He's shown weaknesses which is the completely opposite of Merus. He's a more complex new character with ties from the past which I dig.
- Vegeta getting GoD powers while Goku continues to work on his UI? I love that. It keeps them separated, keeps them both getting strong and my boy Vegeta gets some shit he really loves that's unique to him. We need that. He needs that. Also Goku's training is cool.
- The fact that Goku's the worst UI user confirmed puts a cap on their level right now. They can still grow stronger. Sure, we assumed that but some people needed it spelt out to them.
- I like these new villains. They've got cool designs, they're space cartel, just everything revolving around them is mad cool.
- Someone being stronger than Goku? Who will it be? Granolah? GoD Vegeta? Kuriza will be born? Who who lmao? Kroly (fusion of Broly and Goku) will be born? Who knows. I'm interested.
- These new dudes are obviously trying to set Granolah and Frieza up which in Shonen manga terms means they'll end up being the big bads. Guaranteed, Frieza is gonna, in Jay-Z terms, "flee scott free PP on the steps" here lol. He's gonna dash and be fine. Those other dudes, yeah they're dead.
I can't hate on this chapter.
This is probably the only chapter of the manga I've dug this much. Not sure it'll continue, surely they'll disappoint me in the future but hey, it was cool.

Good start to arc so far. Wonder where they're gonna take Granola. He's super (ha) justified in wanting his revenge that I'm not sure if they'll paint him as evil
I can't really agree. Those chapters felt like Resurrection 'F' , but worst. It also doesn't help that unlike Resurrection 'F', the Dragon Team couldn't even take out all the fodder and Goku had to save them.
Yeah the Moro arc didn't have a spectacular finale, but the early-middle portions of the arc were very solid. This is the first time we've had the Z Fighters in the spotlight in this capacity since literally the Saiyan Saga. Even more so than ToP since even Chiaotzu and Yamcha had some moments. And Piccolo and Gohan double team is one of my favorite Super moments. That's a moment we needed for a long ass time.
I mean he's gonna be weaker than Goku no matter what lol, at least this way we continue to give him actually different moves
Look on the bright side. Eventually these poachers are going to meet a scientist who can build androids to take down their poacher defeating nemesis Goten.
Goten playing the long con to become relevant.
What I've been appreciating about the Moro arc and now this one is the feeling of a more "lived-in" universe out in space. We didn't get to see much of space outside of Namek and Freeza stuff originally, and in GT the planets just felt like whatever the writers felt like doing that week. I love the integration of the Galactic Patrol, seeing factions out there talk about Freeza's death, etc. Things just feel more connected and it's nice.
I agree, regardless of my issues with Moro arc the world building in super remains light years ahead of GT
Yep. Moro Arc did a great job of going back to what OG DB did well in creating a more cohesive universe. Even the stuff with Vegeta and the Yardrats was interesting. Before that arc they were kinda just there and we barely knew anything of them.
Edit: I completely misread what you said at first. Bojack would be awesome.
Unrelated: I got fully caught up with manga today (was a couple chapters behind), and I really appreciated the moment with Uub at the end of the last arc. Him not only being Kid Buu reincarnated but having the Grand Kaioshin's god ki is a clever way to justify him being worth Goku's time in EoZ if Super ever gets back to that point.
That's been my impression, yeah. Not sure how I feel about it.
Everytime super gets praised Gt gotta catch a sub. Maybe super just ain't that good if that's the bar Everytime than
My point wasn't to put down GT and I mentioned it right next to the original series. I just appreciate the attempt to build a more cohesive, connected DB universe lately.
Wow I actually really enjoyed that chapter, though Moro was also promising early on.
Toppo's GOD form wasnt in the manga right? Whatever Vegeta gonna get completely folded by Granolah or whoever the strongest warrior is regardless of how his new powers manifest.

I've stayed out of this thread for awhile, just popping in to say that I think the Galactic Patrol Prisoner arc was great, possibly the best arc of Super as well as being better than the Cell section of Z and Granolah is off to a great start.
Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to hide behind a blast shield.

Okay, so...
Please tell me the anime is continuing.
I stayed out of this thread for a while so I could be pleasantly surprised later.
There's only so much of rewatching Dragon Ball Super Broly that I can take.
And no, you may not reply with a DBS Broly movie scene on YouTube.
Thank you.

It will almost certainly be back, some time, in the future, and none of the "insiders" actually know when, or will.
^ Is it just me or this the same response I keep getting every time I go on hiatus from this thread and then come back to it?
Folks... Have I been here before?
Who am I?
Why do I exist?
Just to suffer?
Isn't Super Dragon Ball Heroes basically the ongoing anime series? Maybe they don't want two of them at the same time
OP
OP
Toriyama did the outline for the arc that just started in the manga, so chances of the anime returning are very high, just probably not for awhile still.
That's a promotional web series that only has 1 ten minute episode a month and isn't treated as a priority by Toei. It's a commercial.
Wait... Toriyama did the outline for the arc in the manga? How involved was he?
OP
OP
The current arc, the one that just started. It sounds like a collaborative effort between Shueisha, Toriyama and Toyotaro, but with Toriyama putting it all together and writing the outline. Apparently they've been planning it for a long time. The arc that just ended was likely Toyotaro's, but Toriyama was still involved in that one and even provided at least one major plot point.
The fodder being characters (even if one note ones that only existed for that battle) and several of them with unique abilities puts them way over Ressurrection F's grunts (and one named guy) to me. I've always thought having several unique fighters would have made that sequence way more enjoyable and that bit basically proved it. That said, I agree with your complaint about Goku finishing the battles, but only in the sense that if we had gotten a chapter for everyone turning around the battle, with Goku only arriving for Moro, it would have made that battle actually great, not just a neat moment.

The unique abilities were undercooked and only existed so the Dragon Team would lose and need Goku to save them.
I thought Moro Arc wasnt that well received, but it seems there has been some positive thoughts on it.
Its really hard to judge it, it had good ideas but something doesn't sit right with me in it.
Hows Era's opinions on Moro Arc? More positive or negative?

Lots of good stuff in it, just ended up feeling rather dragged out by the end.

I really liked it a lot. I noticed some changing opinions about it after it ended and people reread it, so opinions seem to be more positive now than when it was running. I think its biggest problem was simply the monthly release schedule.
I liked it way more on reread. Reading it monthly I was more caught up in where I was hoping the story would go, but reading it all at once it's pretty cool. My gripes with it are mostly I wish Vegeta got more to do and I think Moro became less interesting conceptually as he evolved.
I like the direction the manga is going in. I am all about more universe 7 world building and exploration since we barley saw anything other than Namek. I'm cool with them saving exploring other universes in later arcs. No rush. The universe is huge and makes sense that there are people that are stronger guys out there we never heard about. Granolah is definitely not going to be the main villain. I see him in the same role as Future Trunks and Merus by assisting Goku and Vegeta taking down the big bad.
I can also see Frieza bodying Granolah. He's walking into a massacre if he doesn't know about Golden Frieza.

He doesn't seem to know anything his world about to get rocked lol
Yup, it completely fell apart, but there's good in it

I don't see how it completely fell apart, personally I think it had a really strong ending.
Cool. I said it was my opinion.
