I was recently rewatching this string of episodes, and Bulma MAAAAY realize who the Pilaf gang is?? It's hard to say. She's smart as gently caress, and maybe doesn't want to let on that she knows to them, just to avoid awkwardness. But it's definitely written ambiguously, in the sense that Bulma either doesn't care and is fine with them as long as they're not loving everything up (which she was afraid Pilaf was doing), or she doesn't know (which is equally likely imo). Either way, wouldn't the ONLY people who'd know who they are at all just be like... Goku, Bulma, Yamcha, Oolong, and Puar? Was there anyone else with Goku during all the Pilaf episodes? Was there more besides that very first arc where they get captured and Pilaf summons the dragon but then Goku looks at the full moon and wrecks his poo poo? Yamcha probably doesn't give a gently caress. Oolong and Puar are fine because they know their friends are strong as gently caress. And Bulma... Bulma is smart so whether she knows or not, I don't think it'll bite them in the rear end later? Watch the show prove me wrong. Either way, whatever the truth is here, this is some dank dank character dynamics.

Piccolo would remember them, considering they revived his dad. Not that King Piccolo paid a whole lot of attention to them though. If Bulma knows no way she would remotely care. I mean yeah Pilaf tried to kill them all but so did: Marron's mom Pan's grunkle Mr. Satan's best friend Her foodie cat friend Tien sort of Oh yeah, and literally her baby daddy

I did like that Shu knew combat training rituals, which would make sense because he's technically a ninja. Also, who would win in a fight, Hit or Saitama?

Someone clearly only watched the first season of Dragonball! The "poor Pilaf gang wandering around making ghetto robots on a budget" is actually how they are for the majority of the show. The pilaf gang would show up all the time throughout original Dragonball, and cause mischief searching for the dragonballs. They just sort of dissipated into the Lunch Zone for DBZ though  Dragonball Super is basically picking up a forgotten subplot that ran through all of original Dragonball. Which is awesome.

sassassin posted:It's not implied he's holding back power, it's implied he was punching Goku at times when he would normally stab someone in the neck or something. He's a killer, not a prize fighter. This makes me want to see a Hit spin-off episode, where he could travel around the universe assassinating targets like Golgo 13.

It's hard to imagine Hit being challenged too often, but I am a bit interested in where he came from and why someone so powerful would just work for other people.

All of her focus was on finding dragonballs/trying to lose her v-card.

The Mai in this universe is like 6 years old and Trunks is not a pedophile. He was exonerated in my popular Chris Hansen crossover fanfic.

Agreed, any target he'd pursue would need to have the strength of Golden Freeza, minimum. Otherwise, there's just no immediate threat or danger to Hit. You could also send him to the most incredibly hostile environments of the galaxy. They'd be filled with black holes, poisonous gases, high-speed meteors, crushing levels of gravity, and maybe swarms of lifeforms which can survive the vacuum of space. Or does Hit have a version of Instantaneous Movement, where he can teleport long distances like Goku?

Future Mai is still alive and even if she wasn't Future Trunks feels obligated to protect the increasingly small number of humans on Shitworld. Like Master Roshi.

ImpAtom posted:Future Mai is still alive and even if she wasn't Future Trunks feels obligated to protect the increasingly small number of humans on Shitworld. Instead of training hard to fight Black in some kind of epic battle they should just collect the Super Dragonballs and wish for the Earth-S survivors (the S stands for poo poo) to be transported to the good past Earth. There can't be more than a few thousand left, after the Android genocides its not like they had time to repopulate. Honestly, even using the Super Dragonballs might be overkill. Bulma should just invent a Time Machine truck or something to take the survivors back. There is no reason to leave them on Earth-S. Then Zeno can destroy the whole poo poo universe and return things to balance.

Zeno will probably destroy universe 7 when he finds out there's two timelines in it and someone from the lovely timeline is hanging out in the other timeline, good thing Beerus gave Universe 6 an earth so the whole gang can just take over that earth and live life like normal.

Champa and Beerus appear to have the same KIng of All so yeah, he's pretty clearly outside of the usual timelines. Beerus and Champa are too, there isn't a Beerus of Universe 6, it's just his brother.

The discussion is alternate timelines, not different number universes. The different timelines have created multiple Universe 7s. Whether or not they have their own Kais/Supreme Kais/etc is the question.

If it was the same kaioshin he'd be smart enough to just bring goku back from the afterlife from one day to beat up dabura. That timelines goku would probably have reached SSJ2 by then.
