The Future of Dragon Ball Super: A Luminary Leaves Behind His Legacy

On March 8th, the world of anime and manga suffered a great loss with the passing of Akira Toriyama, the legendary creator of Dragon Ball. His groundbreaking works have left an indelible mark on generations of fans. As we mourn his departure, we also ponder the fate of Dragon Ball Super, one of his most cherished creations. Let’s delve into what the future holds for this iconic franchise.

The Future of Dragon Ball Super

Despite Toriyama’s limited involvement in later iterations of Dragon Ball, such as Dragon Ball GT, the spirit of the series lived on. Toyotaro, a talented artist inspired by Toriyama, stepped in to continue the saga with Dragon Ball Super. Under Toriyama’s supervision, Toyotaro brought new stories and characters to life, staying true to the essence of the franchise.

Rumors are swirling, and possible future arcs are already being discussed amongst fans. Predominantly, the likelihood of a “Black Frieza Arc” has been hinted at. An Earth invasion might seem passé, but given the unfolding narrative, especially with Broly hidden away from Frieza’s curious eyes, it seems plausible that he’s hunting out potential threats.

Could a “God Butcher Arc” for Black Frieza be on the cards? It would certainly be intriguing, provided it presents a different flavor compared to the older events involving Goku Black and Zamas. Frieza’s evident ambition from the Tournament of Power might be a foreshadowing of his aspiration to elevate from his “self-described emperor” status to the “God of the Multiverse.”

An Opportunity for Gohan to Emerge as a Protagonist

Next on deck could be Gohan. It’s speculated that the character of “Beast Gohan” is ready to challenge powerhouses like Alter Ego Vegeta and Ultra Instinct Goku. This could finally be Gohan’s defining moment, displaying his commitment to protecting loved ones and triumphing over Black Frieza. Meanwhile, the character of Orange Piccolo, despite seeming outclassed by Black Frieza’s power, could surprise everyone.

Universe 6, Saiyan Synergies, and the Implication of Uub

Alas, let’s move on to Universe 6. Is it time for Vegeta to finally meet the Saiyan King? And with Goku potentially taking a backseat for a bit, there might be more Saiyan training scenarios with Kale and Caulifla. A big reveal could include them learning the Fusion Dance technique.

Moreover, following these trains of thought, there’s Uub – Goku’s eagerly awaited disciple. With such a buzz around his character, fans are predicting his debut to be inspiring and in line with their high expectations, building on the momentum carried over from the ‘end of Z’ period.

With Toriyama’s passing, the future of Dragon Ball Super hangs in the balance. Will Toyotaro be able to carry forward the legacy of his idol and deliver captivating storylines that honor the original vision? Despite the hiatus of the anime for six years, there is hope for the series to continue in the manga format. The multiverse faces new threats, leaving fans eager to see how Goku, Vegeta, and Beerus confront these challenges.
