With the first series making a comeback, so to has one cosplayer brought back Chi Chi’s World Tournament fit.
At this year’s Jump Festa, Dragon Ball is planning to play a big role in the proceedings, with serious news already being released for major series including fan favorites such as Boruto: Naruto Next Generations and Black Clover, along with new anime adaptations being announced such as Undead Unluck and Sand Land.

Dragon Ball Chi
Instagram Cosplayer Karen G Waifu brought back Chi Chi’s original Dragon Ball fit, which helped in her taking on Goku in a fistfight during the World Martial Arts Tournament before she settled down with her opponent and had two children in the Z-Fighters of Gohan and Goten:
Dragon Ball Super’s manga is making moves, with the newest chapter only a few days from arriving. Following the conclusion of the Granolah The Survivor Arc, the printed story won’t be immediately following Goku and Vegeta once again as it will be featuring Trunks and Goten as they patrol a city as the newest crime fighters in town. Taking place right before Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, it most likely means that we won’t see Gohan Beast or Orange Piccolo make an appearance, but will give readers more of an insight into the lives of Goku and Vegeta’s teenage sons.
