I've always liked to imagine that this means that Goku is going to stay in peak condition for many decades, then suddenly wake up one day looking like Master Roshi and barely be able to move or see and then die like 3 days later. Just shrivel up like a slug with so much salt.

That's more or less what happens in Dragon Ball Online. Saiyans stay in their fighting prime much longer than Earthlings. Goku and Vegeta both sense that their prime is nearly over, so they fly off into space for one giant battle, never to be heard from again.

The only thing Im not sure of is, do saiyans stay looking young til theyre 80 but still die at like 92 or do they have like a 200 year life span?

At the end of Z I thought it was the former but Goku's line in super made me reconsider.

How the hell would Goku know the life-span of a Saiyan if he has never lived in Saiyan society and the only pure-breed Saiyans he knows are Raditz (dead within a day of meeting him), Nappa (dead within an hour of meeting him), Vegeta (not exactly best buddies but sure, they could have discussed Saiyan life off screen) and Tarble (is he even still canon?).

It's like how in Mass Effect Krogan's can live for like 2000 years but no one knows that because they all die way before then. Except you know not that long.

King Yama tells Goku that he granted Goku's wish of reincarnating Kid Buu into a good person. He tells Vegeta this as they discuss who else to add as their fifth for the tournament.

Personally, I think this is awesome, and I hope we get to see him and Bra eventually.

I am kind of sad that it seems there won't really be a mini-arc about searching for the Super Dragon Ball that remains, and that the tournament fights might be super short.

Dont judge me, I design your manhole
They don't directly mention him, Goku just mentioned that Kid Buu was reincarnated, and Vegeta says a baby can't fight in the tournament.

Dragonball Super is in too much of a rush, DragonballZ took its time. When are we going to get a proper 20-30 episode battle?

I mean, I don't want that extreme either, but based on those episode titles, it seems to be going blazingly fast. Though I guess the old Tenkaichi Budoukai fights were around 1-2 episodes max too, apart from the finals.

Vegeta lost his planet at a young age and was regularly sent out alone or semi alone to genocide planets, 3 years without his family is not a big deal to him. Besides, He knows they will be there when he gets back.

Yes. Saiyan hair doesn't change from the time they're born, and also can't be any colour but black.

This does not apply to half-Saiyans, of course, who have shown absolutely human hair including having different colours of it. It also doesn't apply to the Xenoverse Saiyan for...some reason.

In the flashbacks during the Freeza arc yes. It's changed to black in a flashback during the Androids arc and for the first Broli movie. Vegeta's hair was sometimes made brown during the Namek arc, or given brown highlights. Toriyama always intended Saiyans to have black hair, but told the anime staff that it fine if they wanted to use different colors.

It's technically three days. Three years to him but if Saiyans live a long time it's not a big deal.

The latest Super was good for a recap episode. Had enough new stuff to keep the episode interesting and the framing for the recaps themselves were quite fun too.

I don't get why they had to recap the ep that only happened just last week though.

Josuke Higashikata
Mar 7, 2013


'cos the more time spent recapping, the less they have to make for that ep and the more time, money and effort they can allocate to future episodes.

they'd probably use half 2 of the episode to recap half 1 if they could get away with it.
