LEGO MONKIE KID X DRAGON BALL Z : Equivalent Soul Au.

Context: Sun Wukong Died by Azure Lion's slash and he got reincarnated or his soul merge On Son Goku. So basically Son Goku is the new Sun Wukong he doesn't know it . The New JTTW gang still defeated Azure but Barely.

I wanted angst and also Found family.

Also since Goku is FAR more different to sun wukong and NO I DON'T WANT FIGHTING SHUT UP GOKU SOLOS MY ASS I JUST WANTED FOUND FAMILY OKAY FOUND FAMILY-NO DEBATING-

[That moment in the Buu saga]

Vegeta: Kakarot... where's Gohan, my son and the others?

Goku: On Earth.

Vegeta: We were supposed to bring them with us to the Kai’s world after we freed them from Buu.

Goku: I’m gonna!

Vegeta: Oh really?

Goku: Yeah!

Vegeta: Then go get them.

Goku: Ok I will.

Goku: *instant transmissions to Earth, realizes Buu has destroyed the Earth and everyone on it & instant transmissions back*

Goku: ...I see what you mean.

Vegeta: OH DO YA??!!

FEW FUN BEHIND-THE-SCENES STUFF I DID FOR “THE UNSPOKEN” WEBCOMIC SERIES (still ongoing, of course)

So I’m migrating some of the (public version of) pre-production stuff I did in 2021-2023 for THE UNSPOKEN webcomic (back when it still had the old name “Trunks and Goten in High School AU”) here, since X/Twitter apparently annihilated the old Moment feature for real. These are mostly research stuff, some warm up doodles and inspiring sountrack playlists I did before a chapter or a story got made. I usually do a lot of research offline before working on any creative project, that’s why sometimes it feels like there’s so many information gets jammed into one chapter: it was mostly to make do for all the time that I didn’t get to, or wouldn’t be able to work on the comics.

Will add in the chapters along side the information paper for clearer understanding ✌️

———————————————

1. The warm-up expression practice sheet (or doodles, in my case) of Son Goten and Trunks in my webcomic series (late 2022 or early 2023):

Since the idea in mind for these two in the webcomic was to be more “mature, human-like” than the original manga version to fit with the narrative I want to tell and aim at the older demographic, practices are needed :p

2. The Martial Arts techniques research information papers - Chapter 2 and 3 aka “The Spar” 1 & “The Spar” 2 (2021-2022):

A. Goten’s techniques:

B. Trunks’s techniques:

This research about martial arts techniques was actually very fun to do due to martial arts and cultural aspects are being two of the things I enjoy the most in life. That’s probably parts of the reasons why I went back to Dragon Ball in 2020: motorbikes, martial arts and mixed races culture.

Back then I did plan on sharing my research to everyone in the form of little fun art lessons, so there were interesting tweets like this or this. Later I decided to share this somewhere else more private (like my Patreon community) since I realized pre-production researches (or something akin to visual developments) are not that well-liked for most online viewers even though it’s a very much needed process in a creative project 🤔

This martial art concept is one of the actual main themes throughout the whole webcomic series, not really the (super duper gay) b-romance relationship between Son Goten and Trunks, yes I’m very sorryyyyyyy I like them too but I like worldbuilding more lmaoooo :p

3. The brief character design sheet and Chinese-influenced culture research information papers - Chapter 4: “The Iron Woman” and Chapter 5: “Her Resolution, His Origin” (mid-2022 until now and will be continued):

A. Character Design brief sheet:

B. Culture research stuff:

The hilarious thing about researching for these chapters are: Back when “The Iron Woman” was being made, the research limited at reading articles and some books about Chinese cultures, and watching documentaries on Youtube. But when “Her Resolution, His Origin” was being made, the research tuned into a real life trip to China, to take real life reference photos and listening to real legends and stories.

This research for “Her Resolution, His Origin” will be posted to Patreon later, of course ✌️

4. The Original Comic introduction and comeback announcements in mid-2022:

I must have eaten some edibles while drawing this because the boys look so good here. Goten looks so good, I even made him the profile picture for my Patreon account lmao.

5. Soundtrack playlists for inspirations (2021 - now): always the cherry on top. I listen to these playlists everytime I work on the series.

A. Duo playlist for chapters featuring both main characters: link

B. Character playlist for chapters focusing on single character, or anything related to that character: link

———————————————

All in all, posts like this are for people who like to see what’s beneath the surface when working on a creative project. I completely guarantee you, what you’ve seen on this blog are just the tips of the ice berg 🤫

Def not a PR, but my Patreon has lots of this lmao. Half joking half serious, there’s even a “non-posted” comic up there too and many other things. I’m just stating facts.

That aside, I’m just really happy to be able to work on this webcomic. THE UNSPOKEN webcomic series has always been a long-term indie project, not a daily content so I hope the readers who like and follow this series would stay tuned for more ✌️

Chi Chi and Goku’s first encounter is so cute. They’re definitely Childhood sweet hearts, and I would have wanted Goku to be more loving in DBS. Kid Goku is very kind.

[jhonny]

people often talk about how kid trunks absorbed a lot of vegeta's negative traits - cocky, boastful, competitive, prideful - but i feel like i rarely hear people talk about how future trunks has a lot of gohan's negative traits. he obviously comes off more mature because circumstances forced him to grow up quickly (not unlike gohan), but he's also awkward and insecure. he's never sure of his strength, and always seems to blame himself when things go wrong, even if it's beyond his control. he also seems to view fighting the same way as gohan; not something he enjoys, but something necessary, something he has to be good at to keep everyone he loves alive. until meeting frieza, he never would've had a proper victory in his life; everyone around him was always stronger than him, until one day he was suddenly forced into the spotlight as the last fighter able to take on an unbeatable enemy. no wonder they're so alike, they have almost the exact same trauma.

[iwasforceedagainstmywill]

I just think it's funny

The fact Goku's sons are carbon copies of him and he's supposed to the lowest class of Saiyan

It's the same picture.

That's just Goku 2 and 3

And then there's Vegeta's kids

They didn't inherit his immaculate widows peak

I'm not complaining btw I think it's kinda funny.

[shannonsketches]

Ugly crying about this whole sub story I love these boys so MUCH

Top 3 Dragon Ball Characters?

DBZ Goten

Kid Gohan (saiyan-cellsaga)

And of course Goku

It's difficult to make a top 3 because I actually like almost all the characters, but I tried to make a top 3 out of them. And maybe a short explanation of why I decided this way:

DBZ Goten is in 3rd place because he's cute and looks very like Goku, but if he appeared a lot more and if he fought more often like Gohan did back then, he might be higher in the list. I left out Super Goten because hardly anything has changed, he was only a small supporting role and hardly appears.

I specifically chose Kid Gohan and not generally Gohan as a teen or adult. I like Kid Gohan's character, it's great that he also has some filler episodes in the Saiyan Saga and that way I was able to get to know him better, I just like it when you get to know protagonists as children and not when they're adults.

I don't have to say anything about 1st place: IT'S GOKU!

Things that are canon in Dragon Ball Z Abridged but NOT in actual Dragon Ball Z (Part 5)

~ Buu Saga Addition PART 2 ~

Dende has major insecurities about Gohan being with Videl.

Bababi is the one who came up with the idea of calling them Super Saiyans 2 & 3. Goku finds those names boring and prefers to call them “Super Duber Saiyan” and “Super De-Duber Saiyan”.

Piccolo refers to Gotanks as “Truten”.

Trunks sees Nappa as his uncle (looks like he’s babysat and spent time with Trunks so often that Nappa’s considered family).

Nappa died of a “stroke” (RIP Nappa)

Vegeta and Nappa reunited as ghosts thanks to Gotank’s Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack. Vegeta was horrified, Nappa was so happy.

Super Buu can make the people he’s absorb speak through his body, he used this fucked up trick to mock Gohan and torment him using Piccolo, Goten and Trunks’ voices, crying out to him as they suffer inside Buu.

Super Buu ate the Uber Eats delivery guy.

Also Uber Eats and Doordash exist in the abridged world.

Vegito can not psychically say “Goku”. His Vegeta side will not allow it. This becomes such a problem that Vegito puts his fight with Buu on hold just to argue with himself about this debate!

Goku doesn’t really seem to care about Dende and just sees him as the the literal dragon balls guy. If he wasn’t tied to the dragon balls, Goku would’ve most likely have let him die.

After Dende tells Mr Satan that his daughter is a “man stealing whore”, Satan agrees stating Videl is “just like her mother”. What was Videl’s mother like???

Vegeta is REALLY pissed at Goku for not saving Gohan and refuses to let it go (we are all with ya Geets!).

Goku didn’t use the spirit bomb technique on Perfect Cell because he “knew it wasn’t going to work”.

“Vegeta’s stuff” = Bulma & Trunks

Mr Popo is the reason Goku’s spirit bomb was able to gain so much energy to destroy Kid Buu, and that was only Mr Popo lifting up ONE of his arms. How much power would’ve Goku been given if Mr Popo lifted up both arms???!! This also means that he could’ve easily obliterated Kid Buu but chose not to.

It’s insinuated that both versions of Broly (Z and Super) coexist in the abridged universe.

Trunks’ blue hair in Super was just a phase of him dying it before returning back to his natural lilac color by end of Z.

No one wants to talk about Jiren.

Goku is well aware of GT and what it’ll do to his granddaughter’s character.

Bulma uses her money to help provide for Uub’s family while he’s away training with Goku.

Chichi and Gohan are chill with Goku leaving them to train Uub (it’s Goku, they’re not surprised).
