the people of NB must have a brain made up of dark matter , cant you use your 5 senses when analyzing something?

i say this for the last time, manga is a SHORT version. Anime is the FULL story, canon only. its akiras editor who writes the script of the manga, but its still pretty much canon .

I freaking was thinking about this the minute I reread chapter 4 and realized kibito kai un fused. I mean seriously, it all makes sense now. The manga can't possibly be canon because they never un fused in the anime, the two were starting to contradict each other.

I honestly doubt Akira is "looking over" the manga or anime or if he is, barely doing jack shit. They know how much we care if it's canon or not while they don't and they just need to make it seem like they're not milking the series.

Also, the article made it clear that Akira isn't looking over the manga, so it's not canon.

The anime is continuing the story, the Manga is just an adaptation of the Anime. Manga skips quite a bit though, Ressurection F was demoted to a side panel saying that they killed him.


Although Super Saiyan Blue is definately going to be a thing.

OK you said this here "i say this for the last time"

If I saw you came here again and post a refute/disagreement comment with insulting words when people are talking about this matter again, you just lying to your self and us here and by that you are the worst people ever been born in this world bcus you never had self respect and respect to people. You like to insult people and report is must. Maybe Perma banned.

Looks like it is time to stars using the word continuity to describe the DB universe instead of canon and non canon. This is what comics have done for the many different universes in comics.

Since the main medium to describe the original content is now being moved to a different form to continue the story, either all DBS is non canon, the same way GT is, or we have to look at it in a different way.

I mean if Akira is only involved with the ideas, concepts, and story, while others are telling the story through animation, why is the anime canon. I mean is he saying is the story like this? "And then Goku puts his left foot onto Beerus face and proceeds to throw 3 fast punches after." If the story is being told like this and is getting animated step by step, Akira would be better off just writing a novel. That is the only way I can see the anime being canon since every single detail would be described. I'm sure however, he is just giving an overview of what he wants to have happen and the animators fill in the rest. If this is the case, all the feats and we see are non canon, and only the story is canon. OR(this part may be a bit harder to follow if you don't understand much about comics) we can accept DBS as an alternate universe in a continuity as we do with comics. aka the Marvel Cinematic universe is Earth 99999 and the main Earth is Earth 616. Everything is technically canon, but only to that universe. This may be the only way to accept it in some form of canon or the entire thing is non canon like GT.
