Fixing Dragon Ball Super's Manga

Video edited by Editor-San

I will never hide my videos behind a pay wall. This is only for those that would like to lend a hand! Love you all!

[AnimeAjay]

These manga videos are just the best things you've ever done and I love them to pieces.

[DBZMacky]

Oh no no Toyopacobros... what is this?
Toyotaro just continues to put the BS in DBS.

[GrooveCityAcademy]

I don’t blame toyotaro for the shortcomings of dbs. I blame the ones who made the executive decision to give him the lead. I mean for crying out loud, he wasn’t even a working professional manga artist. I understand they wanted to give him a shot because they were impressed by his work. But they could have just given him a dragon ball spin off or something, not a whole bloody sequel to the most beloved anime franchise of all time. An illogical and unprofessional move on their part.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it....

You know. You are probably my favorite DB youtuber right now and I do not regret turning on the bell for your channel.

I won't let you destroy my world ._.

At this point the DB Super anime is a lot better. Toriyama is a master at his craft, his work literally moves "on the page." It's hard to match. His manga tells the whole story by just looking at it. Toyotaro is good, but he can not tell a story by just drawing like Toriyama can.

If you kept on doing this you'd basically make Dragon Ball Super Kai.

I'm loving these videos not cuz of the criticizing of the DBS Manga but more so cuz its intriguing to see these fixes as an artist myself. Most of the mistakes Toyo makes, I do them unconsciously too so seeing this is kinda like a learning experience for me. I'm learning a lot about comic book/manga making from these videos.


Thanks Mark!

Gosh, how am I just now seeing this video? I personally feel that most of the points you made are stem directly from Toyotaro's beginning as a simple fan-fiction artist. I have noticed that, seemingly, every single major DBZ fan-manga work on the Internet uses copy-and-pasted poses from Toriyama's work throughout the ages. As someone who grew up adoring Dragon Ball (I've read the entire manga start to finish over twelve times) and studied comics and sequential art, it gets REALLY annoying when you straight up recognize entire panels having been lifted from the Dragon Ball manga. It immediately ruins my immersion into their manga.
I don't mind Toyotaro, personally, but it IS clear that he is unrefined and the manga studio who employs him has no interest in spending time improving his work when they can instead spend time having him produce more work. And you're right, he does recycle the same shots and reactions over and over, which is why I've had little to no interest in revisiting the Dragon Ball Super manga, unlike Dragon Ball. It's a shame, really, that Dragon Ball Super's manga and anime both seem to suffer significantly from the never-ending break-neck speed.

6:04 goddamn Mark, that "fixing" you did was phenomenal, dude . I legit would buy a full manga edited like that

[Manfromthenorth]

Something else that needs to be touched upon is his writing. Which has been seriously lacking for a while now.
He makes such odd story changes and does weird things with characterization.

I mean in the anime of the TOP arc when 17 is seemingly killed 18 is distraught and cries. But in the Manga she's way more reserved and it has less impact.

Lets not forget the weirdness that is Master Roshi being able to dodge and stand against Jiren and how Goku going UI is achieved.

[yiangaruga]

3:04 Oh god that page was gloriously bad xD Togashi

Still love HxH though

[Sebzrod]

I swear, that manga about Yamcha is better than Toyotaro's.

1:34

Can we just get an entire series where every character's voice is pretty much normal, but Goku's voice is entirely Text-to-Speech?

[sinsukiv]

Mark: *Shows that toyotaru copied from the dbz manga*
Me: OHOHOHOHO that has no effect on me... BECAUSE I SKIPPED DBZ AND WENT STRAIGHT TO THE DBS MANGA!!

[DropDeadDevon]
