Who have been following the manga of Dragon ball super know that currently it continues in the arc of Granolah. Here we are looking at Goku and Vegeta facing off against the powerful Ceresian, who is proving to be a very difficult opponent to defeat. Not even the most powerful transformations of the Saiyans have been able to cope with it.
In addition to new transformations, this arc of Dragon ball it also comes with a surprise character from the past. In previous issues of the manga it was revealed that Bardock, the father of Goku, was responsible for saving the life of Granolah and Cute many years ago. This could certainly change the course of this contest.
Bardock’s appearance in Dragon Ball Super was not taken from the sleeve
Surely many fans were surprised to see Bardock back in Dragon ball super. Since this character was introduced to us in Z, he hasn’t played a major role in the grand scheme of things. His participation did not go beyond being the father of the protagonist and his rebellion against Freeza. However, it has earned its own followers.
One of the fans of Bardock it was Toyotaro, the current illustrator of Dragon ball super. In an interview with the Official site of the series, the artist talked about the return of the father of Goku. Which apparently was brewing for some time due to the love he feels for the character and his curiosity to know more about his past.
Toyotaro explained: ‘I was a supervisor on a project for some figures and had a special affinity for Bardock. I’ve actually wanted to include him in the story for some time, but the main character is Goku and Bardock been dead for years. Introducing it into the main story of Dragon Ball was a challenge‘.
The illustrator said that once he came up with an idea to ‘revive’ the Saiyan, he brought it up to Akira toriyama who gave the go-ahead and the rest is history. In addition, in the interview he hinted that the arc of Granolah maybe not the last we see of Bardock. Could it be that they could use the dragon balls to bring him back to life? We may have the answer very soon.
