Now that Beast Gohan is here and the Super Hero Arc is all wrapped up, we expect the next major arc to begin right away with Dragon Ball Super Chapter 101. While some fans believe we might have a few filler chapters, technically last 12 chapters have been nothing but filler themselves. So, it would be best for the franchise if they move on to the main event aka The Black Frieza Arc. It would also make a lot of sense for 2024 opening chapter to be bombastic as 2023 has been pretty dead for Dragon Ball. Leakers have already hyped 2024 as the year of Dragon Ball and we sincerely hope that turns out to be the case. So, realistically speaking, Black Frieza arc should begin with Chapter 101 however, the latest drafts leak suggest otherwise and it is frankly quite disappointing.
Dragon Ball Super Chapter 101 Summary and Spoilers – Super Hero Epilogue
Dragon Ball Super Chapter 101 draft pages are now out as provided by @DBSHype. The leaks and spoilers for full chapter will be added in a whole new article on 16th-18th january. So stay tuned with us for this weekend to not miss any update on DBS Chapter 101!
To start off the chapter is titled “Carmine and No 15”. Drafts progress as Carmine stands out as the sole recognizable character, known for his affiliation with the Red Ribbon Army and his role as Magenta’s chauffeur and close associate. Carmine also played a minor antagonistic role in the preceding story arc, concluding with Chapter 100’s release.
Carmine returns from Magenta’s rather low-key funeral (they kept it small to avoid police attention). No.15 is the RR goon who tags along with Piccolo to pick up Pan. And I think he’s maybe Carmine’s driver in this scene. Anyway, No.15 as in Android 15 is written 15号, not 15番. After all, they’ve lost their base and most of their soldiers.
But Carmine says they’ve still got some funds left. Even so, he doesn’t plan on reviving the RR as long as Piccolo and Gohan are around. They beat Cell Max! Now there seems to be an accident or something up ahead… But actually it’s Trunks as Saiyaman X1, stopping a bank robbery (and maybe Goten too? Again, roughs are rough). And that’s it for now.
So, it is quite clear that this chapter is going to focus on Goten and Trunks and it is highly possible that this post super hero arc ends up taking a couple of more chapters. Fans obviously, are disappointed and have been ranting since the drafts released. It is quite understandable as they have accused Toyotaro of stalling the fans and not giving them what they want. Everyone was excited for a potential Black Frieza or Sadala storyline, however, what they will potentially get is a few more chapters of Trunks and Goten in high school. Although, there is a slight chance that the chapter might end unexpectedly, but it most likely won’t. So, if you are fan of DB, be ready to not get frustrated if this filler content keeps on going till the arrival of Dragon Ball Daima.
