I liked it, and consider it cannon, though it wasn't the best. I agree that the part when Freeza mentions Super Saiyan God, besides just Super Saiyan, is unnecessary though. Also,it seems that Toriyama's art style has changed, as character's like Bardock and the adult Goku in the last panel seem frailer, and have less muscle, as well as that Final Form Freeza was shown to be the same height as Goku, but it could be just the point of view. Either way, both of those bother me. I guess those are just nitpicks though.

To be honest... I didn't like how Bardock became more of a softie. And when Frieza mentions SSJG? I didn't really like that either, but I'm p sure these are just nitpicks of mine.

Yeah Freeza's reference to SSJ God is a total a*** pull that's never ever mentioned when Goku even goes SSJ so that's an inconsistency as well.

A plot hole that I noticed was surrounding Goku being sent to earth. In the manga, Raditz makes it clear that Goku was sent to earth to exterminate the population. In DB Minus, Raditz wouldn't have even known that Goku was sent away considering he was on another planet. According to Minus, Raditz should consider Goku to be dead.

Either...

A) Raditz just assumed as much for Goku, since that's what Saiyan infants are usually sent to planets for, or...
B) Bardock and Gine told that to Raditz for some reason.

Just from reading that synopsis on Kanzenshuu, I can already tell I dislike this heavily. I didn't care about Goku's mother and actually preferred it being a mystery. I don't like what's being done with Bardock's character either; in the TV special, he was cold and really did not give two s***s about his son or anyone except his teammates, but here he's concerned for Goku and goes to great lengths to save him.

No, thank you. Bardock was not a compassionate guy. He was a typical Saiyan warrior douchebag. Take this pussified version and shove it right into the kiln with the rest of the DBZ milkings.

I'm not a fan of Toriyama's art style here either. Everybody is lacking that built physique that they had in Z.

And the mention of Super Saiyan God?

Whatever you interpret it to mean. It's simply a hotdog being thrown down a hallway, after all.

Toriyama is getting dangerously close to Lucas territory with all of this retconning, for me. I still enjoyed the read, but would I consider this as a replacement for the original version? Nah.

You know I was just about to say Toriyama is practically becoming the Japanese George Lucas. Glad to see someone shares my opinion :yay: .

He'd have to come out and say what the actual canon events and material are, then.

I don't think Toriyama knows what canon means. He'd probably just say everything is canon if he did though.

Kinda ironic seeing as Toriyama stated he listened to Star Wars music while drawing his manga.

Hope he doesn't pull a GL on us and sell DB to Disney. I would literally cry my eyes out if that ever happened.

I think Fox has a firm enough grasp on it, so I doubt it would happen.
