From what I understand, the Pan bit was a joke where Goku was mistaking "Pan" for "Bread", but the translation didn't work out, so they just played it off as Goku being forgetful.

[@DarthMolgy]

Which is dumb because the translators could've just made it a frying pan joke instead

Ngl it is cool to see how Piccolo is so ingratiated in the Son Family dynamic. At this point he's like an Uncle figure, looking after Pan making sure Goku AND Gohan stay on track. Now it's not even a joke to say he's reduced to just being a glorified babysitter to his former rival's grandchild, now that he has his own power that he can hang with the current gang it gives him much needed respect to be seen as an equal and not a side-line character. Now if they can keep up this progress I think the future of the series can really grow from being the 'Goku & Vegeta Show'.

[@dankerbell]

true, with so many different characters having their own ways of keeping up in theory there's a good chance we can have lots of focus, only having so many powerful characters will be difficult to balance. even so i want goten and trunks to catch up too lol

[@Naruku2121]

@@dankerbell They could do it by saving Goku and Vegeta to come in last or have them fight mid story and fail if they want to pull out Gohan and Broly in reserve.

[@ninab.4540]

He didn't. He definitely didn't.

[@NoPantsWilkins]

@@ninab.4540Toriyama literally redrew the last panels from what Toyotaro had originally illustrated… he was unwell for a while (since at least the middle of last year), so it wouldn’t surprise me if he had an inkling he was in his final innings. Piccolo is even known to be Toriyama’s favorite character.

[@Terralventhe]

What I liked about the Saiyan Battle Royale was the fact that this was also an indicator for what the Saiyan race COULD have been like had they matured a bit more as a species and a culture - fight hard and play hard. I've always liked that Super actually explored the nature of Saiyans and the way Vegeta and Goku had become fight buddies who understood how important fighting and self-improvement was. For Saiyans, fighting is a way of life. It's sport, it's culture, it's growth. Different kinda of philosophies and ideals might come into play but at the end of the day fighting is where they feel alive.

[@silversonic1]

The sad part is the timing of the chapter almost makes it seem like it's a parallel to Toriyama and Toyotarou. Goku sizing Gohan up and seeing that Earth will be in good hands feels like Toriyama truly passing the franchise off. I admit I may be reading too much into it, as the plot was likely fleshed out well in advance. I just can't help myself seeing the parallel...

[@SteFive]

I honestly imagine Toyotaro and Toriyama had been working on a big arc after this one during the year, and i imagine Toyotaro would do his best on it if they had worked something out for the next to pay respect to his mentor after the break.

[@RamArt9091]

The next arc. Beerus wants to retire, so he appoints one of the guys as GoD. Nobody wants to do it, so they offer Beerus to find him a replacement. Thus, the plan to force Frieza into godhood starts. Whis can keep an eye on him as GoD. Also Frieza can be a lot of things, but he has a lot of experience managing planets.

[@illyahrthebard3303]

As Masako has also pointed out, Freeza might actually be good at it. He has experience with running things and being calculating enough to take the job seriously.

If Toyotaro will continue the story, I think that my tiny hope of watch humans (Krillin, Tien, Yamcha and Chiaotzu - NOT Roshi, please, he was a retired elder, putting him again at the level of the others is very wrong -) appear again doing something a little relevant (fight against side/minor enemies) will vanish definitively.

[@dalerojo2.091]

​@@ihavenonamestilldonthaveon8970 about those humans after the Cell saga, you are right, but there was only one more saga and the story ended. So, there was not so much time for seeing them being completely wasted (during Cell saga there was almost no action from them, but at least Krillin and Tien still had some relevance in the plot). Also, at that point of Dragon Ball (Majin Boo saga), Toriyama was tired and wanted to end the story as soon as possible. And also, at least he didn't show them having hard times trying to catch a damn car at high speed or fighting against random alien soldiers with a ki level probably below 4,000... In that sense, there was much more respect and coherence with them in the original manga.

[@dalerojo2.091]

​​@@miguelnewmexico8641 almost, but anyway, that has no relation with ki level. His sister also is semi immortal but is not a fighter. About his ki, by logic, his peak was during his 20s/30s/40s years old, having a level that was not more than Korin's one. Being an elder, when he trained for some years after being retired for a very long time, evidently he came close to his peak level again, although probably below that due to his old body, but that level was not high enough to fight even against the old Piccolo Daimaoh. Then, after his resurrection he retired again for more than 20 years. That's why he didn't show up against Raditz, Nappa, Vegeta nor the androids... He could not surprass his own peak anymore because of his age (that's why Kamisama didn't select him to protect the Earth against the saiyans). Anyway, even during his peak, he could have easily been k1lled by a saibaiman (a creature as strong as Raditz, that means, way more than Piccolo Daimaoh)... So, without having a training with Mr. Popo, Kamisama, Kaiosama nor any character (Goku, Piccolo, Krillin, Tien, etc.), nor Hyperbolic Chamber, nor room with increased gravity... He comes out from nothing almost at the level of Krillin and Tien (no matter if they were very nerfed)? Apparently he even surprassed Chiaotzu, who probably since his training with Kaiosama reached a level close to the Goku's one at his first fight against Vegeta... Bringing back Roshi was very incoherent, an horrible fanservice. It's fine if he gives advise from time to time, but not more than that, he shouldn't fight anymore (except maybe against semi common people/enemies - that means, with a ki of no more than 100 for example -). The other four humans are the ones who must fight against enemies at Zaarbon or Dodoria's level (and not having difficulties against random soldiers at Raditz or Nappa power level), or even stronger than that if you make humans train in the Hyperbolic Chamber for example...

[@TommyCrash0320]

If this is the last chapter we ever get, it's a beautiful ending. A good way to close the book. Is it perfect? No, but Dragon Ball in itself isn't perfect and that's part of what makes it so special. A wise man once said "Loving something means accepting it's flaws and acknowledging them, but still having that thing be your favorite thing ever." and I think that encapsulates the feelings a lot of us have towards Dragon Ball.

3:50 my interpretation was that beerus meant that gohan was too straight laced where as I believe broly would be more ok with “destroying” things for the overall good/balance of the universe as a G.O.D. He has the innocence of goku but the seriousness of vegeta

[@HackedGlitch265]

Life's kind of funny in some ways. Many of us fans have wanted Gohan to actually train again and get stronger, and rival the strongest in the universe, while Toriyama always made him prioritise his family/work. And yet the final chapter he likely worked on was him giving so many fans what we've wanted for so long. Perhaps it was intentional: some rumors suggest that Toriyama knew he was running out of time, perhaps he decided to give what many of us wanted as a final gift...

You would think of all people Masako would get the Pan joke. It wasnt bad, just mistranslated. It was the implication Piccolo and Gohan were going to pickup Bread. Beast not being divine was fairly obvious, I dont get how that is a disappointment. Gohan may just be a hybrid mutant in comparison to Broly being a Saiyan Mutant. Gohan is who Whis and Beerus were referring to as too straightlaced for the G.O.D. Title, Not Broly who is nice and softspoken, but not Straightlaced.

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

[@TheZeroNeonix]

I think the "straight-laced" comment was referring to Gohan, not Broly. It doesn't make sense to call the berserker wild boy Broly "straight-laced." Gohan, however, is very different from his father. I think in Beerus' eyes, the job of destruction wouldn't work for Gohan because he is too civilized.

[@dwightnorton3398]

[@TheRealCodeBlack]

I like how the last couple chapters were built around establishing what how each Saiyan (besides Vegeta) fights and what they bring to the table. Gohan emphasizes raw power. Goku emphasizes technique and agility. Goten / Trunks emphasizes duo/team antics with more fun, flashy moments. Broly is Gohan on roids, for extreme situations. Vegeta doesn't fight, but we already know his thing now his manipulating/using his enemies' momentum and power. Thinking of it in terms of what it may have been conceived of before Toriyama's death, I think the intention was to conclude Super Hero by sitting down and set a standard for what each Saiyan character will bring to a plot/fighting scenes going forward. It's like, if they ever want to go "okay, Goten and Trunks have a fight scene with X bad guy, what does that look like?" these chapters give a template.

[@BabyGirlTiny]

lol so Goten/Trunks brings comedic relief to fights??? That’s not new, they’re basically the same as they’ve always been since the Buu saga with zero growth in anything. they’re basically nothing the comedic relief characters

[@Graymanlegend0]

Funny enough a reasonable scenario I don’t hear people bring up is the super manga being just canceled and declared non canon. I hear people constantly bring up that Toyotaro is now holding the franchise in his hands…however he’s not. Sure he’s Toriyama’s protege but he holds no ownership of dragon ball in the slightest, guy is just an artist. The manga is owned by shueisha and they’ll probably lose the rights after ownership disputes and go back to Toei under Toriyama’s son, meaning the manga is axed under licensing. Toei already doesn’t use any manga content for anything so I doubt they’ll have a problem axeing it. People are trying to think about what the future of dragon ball is without seeing what’s going on outside of it.

I was pretty peev’ed seeing Goku forgetting Pan after initially reading it.

And wherever the manga, and all it's connected media, I AM excited to see where it goes, and will be giving it all a fair chance. Maybe a Xenoverse 3 or Fusions 2?!

[@andymoore8835]

I hope toyotaro will get to continue the manga but I do think that we have seen the end of new content for dragon ball for a good long while. It’s been a good run, folks! I’m glad super could (seemingly) end with such a nice chapter

[@Random1567]

Huh? Wasn’t Gohan the one they were discussing about the position of God of Destruction? You said Broly lol Beerus was talking about Gohan’s control, then Whis asked if that meant he was suitable for GoD, and Beerus said no since he’s too straight laced. The context follows them talking about Gohan and “straight-laced” makes more sense to be describing Gohan

[@thedevilsleutice]

I like toyotaros stuff. I know I’m in a minority but I’ve enjoyed it.

[@arbetor12]

one thing I want to see going forward is fights not for the sake of being stronger or defending a planet. but instead the old emotional and ideology ways. like, we all know why Goku and Vegeta's first fight was so impactful was the clashing of ideals, hard work vs natural talent, lower class vs high class, the commoner vs royalty. I wanna see that kind of thing come back. like imagine beerus gets broly to fight Vegeta for who will be the next god of destruction and throughout the fight we see broly without hestiation destroy everything, but vegeta will protect what reminds him of his family or what's important to him during their fight, vegeta could win the fight, but Beerus sees that Broly is more fitting of a god of destruction because he destroys without discrimination. Vegeta although powerful isn't fit because there will be a day where he may have to destroy what's important to him and he wouldn't do it, going against the rules of the Gods. Broly doesn't have that issue due to his lack of bonds (except Cheelai and Lemmo) it's just an idea I came up with and there are tons of different fights that could explain what I'm suggesting better. but I wanna see stuff like this again.

[@dankerbell]

it's a good idea in theory but for something like the one you suggested idk why vegeta would agree in the first place since he doesn't want to be a god

[@arbetor12]

​@dankerbell it was just an example. A bad one yes but it got the idea across I hope

The Tori Era ended. The Toyo Era has begun.

[@quietguyjosh4643]

Bird era ended Rise of the reptiles

[@princejamerson1]

Toyotaro needs a break so that he could properly grieve and recover from his sensei Toriyama’s death, I feel so bad for Toyotaro that he had to go through the pain of losing his master Toriyama, I pray for Toyotaro to recover from this terrible tragedy because life can be so unfair

[@LordProteus]

Freiza remains supreme. Cool.

[@0LuctheGhoul0]

I love every words you say lol

[@nekrophil7506]

Berserker Beast Broly would be awesome

[@rafaelramirez2923]

To me personally, this and daima are the end of dragon ball. I’ll forever appreciate this journey and rewatch it.

[@Darkdayzz]

Personally I thought Beerus was talking about Gohan being straightlaced, which Gohan is.

[@suiginmigasuto3356]

I pre-ordered Sand Land. Didn’t even give it a second thought.

[@GandalfMonkeyAnimations]

Whis was certainly referring to Gohan for the God of Destruction role. Not Broly

[@mattc2626]

4:23 Yes! Can we please finally get Gohan vs Vegeta?!?

[@Endrance88]

now that's what i call a saiyan family reunion

[@autumnshinespark]

Ah, I would've loved to see Pan hang out with Uncle Goten.

[@ZelosXT]

Review SandLand MasakoX even if it's just the new parts!

[@Topher-pe7ve]

Whis and beerus were talking about Gohan being too straight laced for God of destruction not broly beerus says right before that gohan has a better handle of his power that's when Whis mentions Gohan as a candidate that's what I took from it

[@izumah]

can you go back to school days playthroughs?

[@howtogoogle8031]

amen

[@IAmMightyMike]

I wonder how Toyotaro will handle the franchise now without having to check in. I kind of feel like Super has needed more reigns

[@saphcal]

We know how long the break is. The end of the chapter on the website lists when the next chapter is coming out. Its coming in May. Its only taking April off.

[@DavidPereiraLima123]

The one thing I hope is a new air time for DB ("Super 2" to be precise) in Japan, that took a massive toll on Super. One can dream.

[@Bladze2084]

2:08 forgot you were in dbza

[@gilgamesh_max]

I think one of the best way that Toyotaro can improuve as writer with DB is having a good or the same Editor that Toriyama had in the past, now that Toriyama is not with us
