Everything changes, Pit.
Even gods.

I hope Piccolo and Gohan fuse. It's the only thing that makes sense for U7 if they want to throw in a new fusion, unless we get a canonical Android 1718, which I'd be cool with too.

I don't want U7 to be left out if there's going to be a Potara Party

I mean, reminder that the only thing close to a fat joke with Ribrianne is that she knows Rollout. There have been more visual goofs about her flared nostrils than there have been about her spherical torso. Also like an entire universe and its gods think she's hot poo poo.

The joke with Ribrianne is not "gross lol she's fat". She talks about being powered by love on the surface, but her Dragon Ball Wish reveals that it's actually a massive ego trip because she wants the whole multiverse to treat her like her fans do, hence it makes sense that her actual rantings about love are shallow.

The nostril goofs are again part of how she's ugly, though? Same with her ego. Like that's the entire joke. It pivots around the same axis of her being a gross weirdo. It's all just extremely lazy and there's nothing else to her character at all. She's not strong or cool or anything but we keep cutting back to her.

The only thing that actually amused me was the Pretty Cure power-up reference and her power up just being wings but instead of that being the pay off she continues to hang around. At least every other lovely one-off character in this arc has had the good sense to get knocked out shortly after their introduction.

She, or someone else, might as well knock out 17 or 18. Not like either of them are doing anything useful.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

I really enjoyed the "Everyone loves Ribrianne and she's the epitome of beauty unless you live in U7" gag.

It seems like there's been a lot of "U7 is a nightmarish hellhole full of weirdos" jokes and they land every single time for me. Their team is partially made up of a dead galactic tyrant, 2 androids with infinite energy who conquered Earth in an alternate timeline, and the reincarnation of a Demon King.

I do want Ribrianne to get at least one meaningful elimination before she leaves, though. It seems like one the Androids is a safe bet, but imagine if she knocked out Vegeta or Goku?

I hope Piccolo and Gohan, and Goku and Vegeta independantly and on opposite sides of the arena decide to Potara Fuse, but they clip on the earrings in such a fashion that we end up with Pickled Vegetables and Gogo-Kuhan.

Yeah but that's only because the show walked it back because they realized they setup Goku to be the uncaring murderer of trillions.

I am going with the artists original intentions and seeing Goku for the monster he is.

Didn't Piccolo kill some people as a kid or something? And I'm counting attempted murder because he was straight up prepared to blow up a ton of people had Goku not intervened. 17 and 18 are mass murderers in a different timeline and basically only didn't because Cell interrupted them so I'm also counting that. Like, if you were about to go blow poo poo up and kill countless people but just got distracted I think it still counts.

If you think about it, we know the most about U7 (obviously) and unless the other universes get revealed to be Alternate-reality space Jesus', U7 is the worst.


Goku -- killed his grandfather, responsible for the death of his brother, responsible for the creation of machines that wipe out humanity, wanting to show off to a magic being rather than fighting him leading to the wiping out of mankind.

Vegeta -- Warrior race prince who killed millions for profit and fun.

Piccolo -- Best non-dad.

Krillin -- Allowed a killing machine to live because she was pretty, leading to the creation of the ultimate supreme being bent on wiping out all life Cell

Frieza -- TL;DR Space Kim Jong Un

Androids -- Killed people for fun and would wipe out humans if they had been able to.

Master Roshi -- Sex criminal

Majin Buu -- Sociopathic monster who really likes candy and the old men that give it to him.

Gohan -- Guiltiest of all, wasted potential.

Edit: Tien -- I forgot Tien, much like Toriyama did, once uncaring cold warrior, now plot device to show the strength of an upcoming opponent for Goku.

I'd be really interested to know everyone else's stories because U7 people are pretty much loving monsters.

U6 has a gang leader; her second in command that's very prone to going into berserk rages and hurt friend and foe alike, Freeza with good PR and a highly competent and extremely dangerous version of Tenshinhan in Hit. And one of those Namekians is clearly Lord Slug so he's likely evil, dangerous and very derivative.

And Dr. Rota. There's no way that someone who has an offensive ability that makes him worthy of being called Doctor is a good guy.

Tien also scammed a village in Dragon Ball and was planning to be an assassin, and even Yamcha who hasn't really done much the entire series started as a Desert Bandit
