V Jump

Yes.

According to multiple previews, the next episode they're showing is indeed episode 10, which was not on the list, and was the one that V Jump went there, and we went, and we went, "Here's what we think is happening." It turns out, no, that's correct, and we're not sure why.

But that would seemingly suggest they're not keeping it to 11 episodes each, so we will see.

Weird.

That is the big disappointing aspect that I'm sure many Dragon Ball fans are like, "Are you kidding me? Are you freaking kidding me right now?" We're not getting a J- a Dragon Ball stage at Jump Festa, which possibly means that no Dragon Ball Super manga announcement coming this year.

I'm hoping that they're just gonna do, like, when Dragon Ball Super's manga returns, they're just gonna announce it in V Jump or maybe even double it up and do a V Jump and a Weekly Shonen Jump announcement like, "Hey, you know, for the people that read Dragon Ball Super, it's coming back to V Jump." Even though at this point, if it was up to me, I'd get everything out of V Jump and just throw it all in Weekly Shonen Jump to make people like, yo, [laughs] segue from whatever, because at the end of the day, this is my show, damn it.

I can talk about whatever I want when I want, all right? But if it was up to me, bro, this whole V Jump nonsense of a magazine that has a very, very limited run of publication or whatnot, bro, even if it was that you get Dragon Ball once a month in Shonen Jump, I would put it in there.

Like, you would get, one week you'd get Boruto with everything in there, the next week you'd get Dragon Ball.

Like, there's so many ways that they could've done this thing, so tha- that, that's just what I would do.

So more details of that soon-ish.

Then V-Jump, small V-Jump, card stuff will go over later.

They had a little potpourri batch at the end.

They go over, they explain what the best adventure we chose is.

And they went, okay, This is 9.

The next one will be episode 10.

Even though episode 10 is not on the list, I think the listing in V-Jump is a mistake.

Yeah, that would make sense.

So in Dragon Ball Online, Android 9 is a giant robot replica of Commander Red.

In Dragon Ball SD, Android 9 is an Android version of Akio Iyoko, labeled as Iyokugo, a play on the name of the V-Jump editor-in-chief's name.

Okay, that's kind of cool.

But also, like, why is it just Commander Red? Okay, that's whatever.

Uh, they came out at the end of the Granolah arc, uh, in December 2022, and January and February 2023.

Just three months se- uh, sequentially over there in V Jump.

Uh, but this was after a three-month gap between the end of Granolah and then these three chapters.

So little bit of breathing room, then we jumped into this.

Oh, yeah.

Mm

... were both printed in color in V Jump.

I keep forgetting that, too, is that Ken gives this to me in full color, like the entire thing, so it's like I'm kinda spoiled in that aspect, or, or unspoiled, depending on, you know, sometimes things feel better in black and white, so I don't know.
