toriyama only gives the basic outline of the DBS story to the anime team, Then toyotaro fills in the blanks himself, So the same applies here. Most of the idea/Arcs are cannon with the anime team adding their own spin to it which toriyama didn't do himself and they're obvious fillers in the anime such as Trunks&Goten tagging along with monaka. which the manga doesn't bother with.
Basically toyotaro follows kishi's plot but toyotaro himself creates the details within said plot, just as they did here, the Idea/Plot is cannon but the details within the plot are not. As for Super Anime vs Manga, i'd pick the manga as it's overall superior in story telling/Details and has far far better power scaling.
