the beginning of this arc began with an explanation by Whis that power isn't just physical strength the way Goku has interpreted it his whole life, but this tournament is just that. I'm waiting to see where they take that

So the orbs sense body heat, and the sniper goes after targets based on that.

So why did the sniper shoot that random rock that Piccolo threw

the smaller orbs on the ground did the heat sensing

considering super saiyan 2 was originally just treated like an improved super saiyan, maybe the thought was that it obviated the mastered form stuff

Yeah, cause that's how abbreviations work! Native American should be abbreviated NAN, so you know the "-n" is in there.

a lot of Native Americans use NDN

Goku just wants to have fun fights. He's been taking a breather while he fucks around with the Gay Saiyans, but he's trying to match them otherwise. He even popped into SSJ3.

I just watched the Fortuneteller Baba arc again and it's just so nice that Goku gets to see his grandpa again and do the thing they like most

why does Ultra Instinct give you a power increase

but there was a whole part of the episode with Goku and Kefla competing in power!

Whis implied Goku's attacks weren't working because he couldn't maintain the focus UI requires when attacking

poo poo has gone wild as Babidi placed a poo poo ton of lower power fighters (in comparison to the heavy hitters) under his spell, giving them a power boost

Bendis is changing the reason for Krypton's destruction. Now it was the work of a space tyrant who wanted to eradicate Kryptonians off the Universe. Jor-El is the only one who was aware of this and this is why he sent Kal-El away.

that kinda sucks. Krypton being annihilated by its own hubris and Superman rising above that because of his Earth heritage is the best part of his origin

in any other series, the mysterious brother of the main protagonist would be such a big deal and it's just not in Dragon Ball and it's so funny

grieving for Gandalf
Apr 22, 2008

I do think it's funny for the ToP to be a thing after Multiverse has been playing in a very similar space for a long time but that's probably more because it's natural step, especially metanarratively with people having fun with all the what-ifs Dragon Ball gets

Super heroes become gods regularly as well.

One of its most iconic things is the Phoenix force which is a literal God the heroes manifest sometimes. Sometimes poorly but mostly with good results.

there was another arc after that I think where everybody got divine weapons like Mjolnir from Asgard, right? that kind of stuff happens all the time

Yeah. Power levels primarily exist so a villain can go "But... THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!" before exploding, but there's this weird section of the fanbase that takes them as holy writ, and feels that every fight should, ultimately, boil down to who has bigger numbers.

Super moving further into "Yeah, power levels are bullshit" to the point where Android 17 ranging the HELL out of some parks made him THE STRONGEST IN THE MULTIVERSE seems to have infuriated some of them, which, won't lie, amused me to no end.

within fiction, it's pretty wild that 17 can match up with Super Saiyan Blue. like, does that mean that as of when Beerus first showed up, 17 would have given him a better run for his money? he would have beaten Golden Frieza?

Vegeta's gotta be at least passively interested in Gohan because he's a proof of concept for the continuation of the Saiyan race
