I'm hoping that the other universes are totally different instead of parallel universes. Running into a remixed version of a known character would get boring pretty fast unless it was done well. And DBM pretty much already did it well...

To be fair, Gods of Destruction will probably be more similar than regular inhabitants.

I actually could never get that much into Cell, probably due to how I learned of and experienced the series largely out of order. So to me he ends up seeming like a wannabe Frieza mixed with a prototypical Buu, and ultimately not working quite as well as either of those two.

Mind you, his english voice actor is pretty drat :smug:, so he was well cast

Honestly, I'm not super big on Cell as a character but the Cell arc owns and is probably the best Z ever gets.

I think there's going to be a lot more universes than balls. That or there'll only be like a dozen universes at most, which seems improbable. So I imagine it's more likely to be a single set of 6 or 7 dragonballs spread across the multiverse, with one ball in Universe 5, another in Universe 12, another in Universe 31 and so on.

So, what would the Super Dragonballs do that's different from original flavor Dragonballs? Do they leave a minty scent in the air after a wish is granted, and that's the only difference?

Well if it's true multiverse theory at play here then you have an infinite number of universes.

Even DBM touches on this. There aren't just 20 or whatever universes, it's just those are the most different ones they could find

There are 12 universes as confirmed by Beerus in Battle of the Gods. There's also an interview where Toriyama describes how it works out, which this image is based on



(it might be official? don't remember).

Can't find the interview for the life of me, tho.

And granted it's Toriyama, so he could just retcon that stuff, but still.

The Dragon Balls can't grant wishes that are beyond their creator's powers. This is why they can't be used to simply wish the villains to die and obtain world peace. I mean, not like it'd happen anyways because the driving force in this series is Goku wanting to fight against stronger and stronger opponents regardless of how dangerous they might be for the world, but this is why Shenlong was not used to just kill Nappa and Vegeta (as Oolong did bring that option up, only for the dragon to shoot him down)

We can guess that these Super Dragon Balls were created by a being far stronger than Kami, Dende, Guru or Moori, and thus have less limitations on what they can do. Maybe wishes on an universal scale, since the Earth's Dragon Balls, during Kami's time, showed a limit there, Shenlong could barely bring back the people from Namek and Earth killed by Freeza and his men, that was a massive gamble. While with Dende they would be stronger, this might be on a completely different level. Maybe big enough to affect Gods.

Goku would be ashamed of you.
I'm wondering if Champ and Lady Whis aren't "alternate" Beerus and Whis but are just a members of the same races. Toriyama has already set precedent of the diety-level beings all deriving from the same races. The regular Kaio's are all Shin-jin, the Supreme Kaio's are all a separate rarer race of Shin-jin. Then you have the Maikaioshin and Maikaio's. Plus the Ogres. Each level of deistic power is represented by an entirely different race of beings.

Gods of Destruction may not always be just whoever their handler picks. Whis' comment about Goku taking the job may have just been a one off comment and in reality Beerus and Champ come from a race of beings that are incredibly naturally powerful and Whis' race acts as handlers to Beerus' race.

Technically goku could always wish for peace on earth and just go fight badguys on other more expendable planets.

I honestly legitimately hope they do this. Have a universe full of weird-rear end goofy counterparts to all the characters, give them whoever the hell for Japanese voices I really don't care, and then have TFS dub them. :v:

e: a universe where Nappa was sent to Earth as a baby and raised by Grandpa Gohan instead of Goku. To differentiate him from OG evil Nappa, he's dubbed in English by Takahata101, and they let him improv. :getin:
