Dragon Ball Super Manga: New Arc and the Future of the Series

The Criticized Recap Arc

The Dragon Ball Super manga faced heavy criticism in 2023, particularly due to its recap arc of the Super Hero film's events. The arc deviated from its initial focus on Trunks and Goten, becoming a rehash of the film with only minor changes and additional events. Fans were disappointed with this departure from the series' original direction.

Despite the critiques, the series is set to begin a new arc, signaling a fresh start for the manga. However, leaks hint at a potential connection to the Super Hero arc, raising concerns among fans about the direction of the series.

The Connection to Super Hero Film

The new Dragon Ball Super arc has concluded the recap arc of the Super Hero film, providing reassurance to fans. Although initial draft pages featured characters from the film, subsequent leaks clarified that the new arc moves beyond the film's events.

Recent leaks suggest that the new arc picks up immediately after the Super Hero film's events, with characters like Broly and Beast Gohan playing central roles. Additionally, the arc hints at the introduction of new, powerful enemies for Goku and his allies to face.
