Drawing Granolah with Toyotarou!

This week’s weekly dragon ball news as well as last week’s was a little bit different. Last week, they interviewed Toyotarou and it gave some insight on his work and thought process in the new Granolah arc. You can watch it here.

This week, looks like a continuation of that and he shows us how he draws Granolah. In Japan, manga artists usually use the square boards to draw their art for people and organizations whereas american comic book artists use either backing boards, blank comic covers, or artboards. You can watch that episode here.

The next issue of Dragon Ball Super is coming out in two days according to Viz media so Wednesday, August 18th. Looking forward to this issue based on the scans that came out last week.

Not much to talk about in terms of figures, but there have been new prototypes being displayed here and there and potential new S.H. Figuarts include the following:

  • Kefla
  • Master Roshi (Tournament of Power Look)
  • Yamcha (Short hair)
  • Base Vegeta
  • Dodoria
  • Zarbon

Which figures are you most excited about releasing?

Finally, as of yesterday, I have taken over this website from Majin Rob as he embarks on a very busy new career path. As many of you have probably already noticed, he has been very busy since about a year ago when I took over reporting on this site.

I originally thought the new official dragon ball site would put this site to pasture, but i think there is room for us here and i hope to come up with new content similar to how Rob created the figure index. Looking to keep this going a little bit longer so i hope you will continue to visit.

  1. I was surprised to learn Toyotaro designed Granolah. His design looks like something Toriyama would make. Pretty impressive. I think this design is much better than Moro who looks fanfictiony to me.

    • I liked moro’s original form being all old and raggedy, but as he got stronger and stronger, he started to look like an alien and the whole planet eater form was just weird.

      Its good he has creative freedom, but still needs to get blessing from the god father. My biggest issue with the Granolah arc is using the dragon balls, the last time they did this was the goku black arc and that one wasnt very good either story wise.

      Will be interesting to see what happens when AT is not around anymore…
