We wouldn't have to have this conversation at all if Dragon Ball had ended when it was supposed to.

When is the break/hour long special thing again?

A break this weekend and one at the start of October, hour long special on the 10 8th of October, iirc.

e: i checked the calendar and that Sunday is the 8th.
Double checked on Herms' twitter and he says a new ending debuts on that episode too

This video is legit terrible.

Goku probably won't become the next turtle hermit, because the guy
A) Doesn't like to sit in one spot for very long
B) Isn't the type to really train people. Seriously his version of training people is having them come at him while he toys with them until he decides to beat their rear end.

Uub is obviously going to be an exception, because Goku had a ton of respect for kid buu's power level and wants to see what it could become if given time to grow. I wouldn't be surprised if Goku thinks Uub will surpass him. The next turtle hermit is going to be Yamcha

There's literally a hermit dude with his own dojo in the series who's been reduced to a joke, I think that spot is covered.

I'm wondering, but would Goku even be a good teacher? I know he and Gohan trained together, but Gohan already had a solid grasp of martial arts thanks to Piccolo. I'm talking more if Goku has what it takes to train a complete rookie like kid Uub from scratch.

Yamcha would absolutely open up a lovely dojo to meet girls & make some money and it would absolutely be a lot more successful than Tien's (or Goku's).

Goku's problem with training people is that he gets way too bored too quickly. Uub is someone that he actually sees potential in that he can train uninterrupted (unlike Gohan who always had ChiChi getting involved). Uub won't be an especially good fighter by training with Goku (Goku isn't especially good at fighting, he's just good at being the strongest dude in a brawl), but he'll have the power to beat back most opponents. I imagine Goku won't train Uub entirely, but have other people train him in aspects he sucks at, or get Uub in on some Whis training

Goku is stronger than everyone in his universe, but he's not exactly an amazing fighter. Even Goku admits he fucks up a lot. The difference is when he lets his guard down and someone gets the drop on him he can just be like "lol I am so much stronger than you idiot."

To be fair to Chi-Chi, she actually was the one to train Goten but I got the feeling it was only for self-defense. When Goten turned Super Saiyan, Chi-Chi broke down crying because she saw it as a sign that Goten would be a delinquent like Goku and get into brawls.

Though the way you describe Uub being trained under Goku makes it sound like he'll be the next Gohan. A guy who relies on his innate potential with others being the one to actually train him. :v:

But really, as he is now, I just can't see Goku being able to train Uub.

So the actual previews came out and confirmed the unconfirmed ones but they also had this nugget about U4: As the various universes start getting down to business, the God of Destruction Beerus notices something odd about the number of people in Universe 4.

Only a month until we finally get to see what that's all about :v:

It's a bit inconsistent since we have moments like Goku punching a dude made out of water and wondering why it's not working, but generally he's portrayed a genius-level fighter. When not being a huge idiot Goku can figure out complex techniques in moments and figure out an opponent's fighting style just as quick. It's not exactly mutually-exclusive with letting his guard down when feeling too overconfident or relaxed.
