I feel like I remember Korin having a bunch of Nimbus clouds under his Lookout. Or something like that. I think it was shown after the RR Army blew up the original one Goku had.

Yeah there's a big Nimbus prime that Korrin shaves new Nimbus off of.

A subtle reference to the Super Dragonballs.

Would the flying nimbus count as a tool or is it it's own cognizant being? What im asking is could it have joined the tournament of power and been untouchable

General Tao killed the first one and Goku was afraid he'd kill the new one just by powering up, as a team member it'd be only slightly more useful than Tien.

As someone who has wholeheartedly devoted himself to JUSTICE, Toppo has but the most pure of hearts, and therefore could beat up the evil, villainous cloud.

Iirc it was actually some Red Ribbon goons that blew up Nimbus the first time but it turns out it’s a fuckin magic cloud so it didn’t take.

Oh and I had it doubly wrong anyways, Tambourine definitively explodes the original nimbus.

Pretty sure the Nimbus is sentient and is just really picky about who it allows to ride on it. Krillin bragged about being able to ride it, and the Nimbus thought it'd be funny to let him eat poo poo.

Exploration is ill-advised.
Monkey D Luffy apparently can also ride the Nimbus.

Yeah, Col.Silver shoots a bazooka at it and Goku assumes it's gone but the old people in Jingle village tell him nimbus clouds can't be easily destroyed and when he calls it appears as usual. I guess Toriyama planned to have Goku use other means of transport to make the arc feel more adventure-y but then changed his mind making all this pointless (except for the gag of the pilot robot freezing over after bragging about robots not caring about cold).

Tambourine destroys it for good and that's the one replaced by Karin, this time is probably to make Goku spend time with Yajirobe and get to know him.

That was a pretty good gag to be fair. Also Goku wouldn’t have been able to flex on Muscle Tower as hard if he could just fly to the end boss

So, Harvey, what became of the giant penny?

They actually let him keep it.

Nanigans posted:

My question is how he's gonna move around on screen being famously known for never learning to fly. It'd be cool if they have him shooting li'l kamehamehas to sort of zip around like when he used one to get back to the ring in the tournament.

Looks like no super dash is confirmed, but no word on if he has something unique to him to make up for it.

Master roshi going to be rear end confirmed. Once you take away a core mechanic of the game from a character, it's almost guarnteed they will be bad.

Videl doesn't have reflect and she just melts under pressure, so she's bottom tier. Super dash is such an intrinsic part of the game and such an annoyingly useful tool, that I can't see how he's going to be good.

Nanigans

~Waku Waku~
The magazine scans say he has something called "Master's Leap" instead. Also, they show him zipping around with reverse kamehamehas.

I'll wait until there's at least video of him before deciding.

But whatever, I just play the game for the flashy supers anyway idgaf

Not if they spirit fission him first, whilst dodging all his attacks with UI.

Seriously that would be a perfect way to wrap this arc up. Goku and Vegeta each learnt part of the solution to defeat Moro but lacked the capability to do it single handedly, now they need to work together and combine their methods to defeat him for good.

Oooooor we could get another Deus Ex Machina ending where Zeno just ends up blipping him out of existence, who knows.

Could Gogeta use UI though? Unlike normal transformations, UI is specifically a state of mind - one Goku could achieve but Vegeta couldn't. With an unified mind that takes from both, would UI still be accessible? It's an interesting question that I doubt will ever get answered and Heroes will just drop UI Gogeta and UI Vegetto eventually with no real context.

goku still can't re-achieve mui so there's no way gogeta or vegito could. being more powerful doesn't mean you can just use mui
