Re: king yemma I always had the headcanon that there was some intrinsic property to being dead that left you under Yemma's judgement and subject to his rulings. All the talk about how strong he actually was in a fight I took as generally outside the realm of his job.

Yeah, pretty much. It's like how the Devilmite Beam could potentially kill anyone, regardless of how strong they are.

I mean, in theory they are, but we've already seen that isn't really the case. At least, Whis's actions with his rewind haven't been very neutral.

C'mon, you know the Dragon Ball rules. Food is the most important thing, then honour (or, if you're 17, pragmatism for nice boats). Whis merely did what he had to to protect food.

There's no food at risk with Freeza as Emperor of the Multiverse, thus there is no extreme reason to break honour and rules to stop him.

Same. My own headcanon of him beating Raditz was basically "I beat the poo poo out of (the completely helpless soul that used to be) Raditz". It makes the whole scene funnier honestly, seeing a little soul with no actual limbs just trying to break everything to escape, Candy Vegetto-style but with far less success.

There's no way Frieza's first order of business won't be to destroy Earth, both of them, and all of their delicious food.

It's funny that DBZ made the portara fusion out to be this godly, mystical, super-powerful and rare fusion while the fusion dance is easy enough that two eight year olds can learn it in a day. And yet, we're now up to 5 canon portara fusions while Gotenks remains the only dance fusion to be seen.

Thinking about this has made me realize that number one of my wish list for things I want to see from Super is Goku and either Vegeta or Freeza using Ultra Instinct against a stronger foe, and performing the fusion dance before either fighter realizes what's happening. Like, have it dawn on them what they just did right after their fingers touch.

Frieza is going to Buu saga Super Saiyan 3 timeout himself in Golden Mode fighting Jiren on a surprisingly equal level (because plot), imo.


When he goes, it'll be a bad day, he's so glorious.

Herms put up spoilers for the next few eps. Goku uses UI against Kafla, apparently going above "Omen" this time. He ends up tired again, leaving him a target for U2. 17 and 18 face U2, and then another Universe gets Erased (U2, probably, so there's no more Love).

Oh, and Kafla made every universe realize that they could be using their own Potara too.

It seems like a waste not to have Kefla Throw down with Jiren at some point, given Kale was the one who kept bugging him and was the one who made him do something first and foremost.

I'm happy about that set of spoilers, I'unno about you.

Goku having to pull off UI again to beat (?) the Legendary Super Saiyalesbians is gonna be fun, and then we get Android Bros probably wrecking some stupid magical girls again. Also I can't believe Gohan and Piccolo are gonna do Potara Fusion now.

Wow so Goku's plan to restore his stamina by getting double teamed by super saiyans didn't work after all. Who could have guessed?

No, it sounds like it works. He goes UI again. It just means he needs to get his arse kicked again afterwards.

If the spoilers are right, and U2 is really erased, I'll be satisfied. I've been itching to see another Universe get eliminated, and Ribrianne has just been an annoyance, let's be honest.
