Ghost_MH Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Well, fuck. Toyotarou has confirmed that the last thing Toriyama ever did for the Dragon Ball manga was suggest adding Piccolo waving goodbye in the second to last panel here. This entire sequence of Goku finally meeting Pan was already quite lovely without knowing it was Toriyama's final addition with his all time favorite Dragon Ball character. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait how long ago was this drawn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon Ball Super is a monthly series and this chapter came out last week with the magazine probably going to print a couple of weeks before then, so I'm going to assume this chapter was worked on a couple of months ago. Toyotarou, himself, confirmed it on Twitter. This was his original storyboard... And these are the changes Toriyama made... Toriyama was absolutely correct in his choice here. Having the chapter end with five panels of the characters' backs is off putting. Having Piccolo turn back before the camera then also turns back to end on the faces of Piccolo and Pan's teacher flows way better. Toriyama has always done a great job with framing and the flow of action from panel to panel and this is a perfect example of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or do you mean that it's the first time Goku's meeting Pan when she's old enough to talk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During that fight with Beerus they needed to perform the God ritual, but they were one Saiyan short until Videl announced that she was pregnant with Pan. Fast forward to now and Goku barely remembers any of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I'm remembering is baby Pan flying around, Goku and Vegeta bumping each others' heads trying to catch her, and then Vegeta getting pissed off and giving Goku a thumb signal that it's time to go fight.

You might be thinking about Bulla, Vegeta's daughter, who was a baby in the DBS Broly movie. I don't remember if Goku met Bulla, but her debut was definitely there. That much I remember because until then Bulla was always older than Pan thanks to DBGT, but DBS swapped them around and made Pan the older of the two girls.

Ah yeah I'm probably thinking of Bulla, thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
