Trunks was more successful when he was using his own moves.

He only has like 2 moves, and one of them involved pre-Naruto hand signs.

Vegeta Final Flash - huge swath of the earth carved out, almost destroyed the planet had it not arced off into space where it was still visible from thousands of miles away.

Trunks Final Flash - 3 inch deep crater a few feet across.

That episode was loving amazing.

To be fair Cell kinda let Vegeta charge that motherfucker to hell and back. Trunks just had to get that motherfucker off.

trunks is also infinitely stronger now than vegeta was then so eh

collateral damage in dragon ball is incredibly inconsistent and has nothing to do with how strong anyone actually is at the time tho

It happens in like every single DBZ arc.


Start of the arc with the villains Goku and co are cocky maybe after beating up a weaker or villian in a weaker form, they get their poo poo stomped by the new/transformed/real villian and then somehow get away or the villian let's them do so.


Now the Z crew must power up and train until they are ready to fight the villian in its final incarnation.

While this is going on we see the villian doing whatever it is they want to do for their plan traveling to the fight or just chilling and living life waiting for them to return.

That's actually not true?

The only time I can think of any of that happening was Buu and even then there was no retreating except for Gohan and Goku. Everyone else got super dead.

Happened in the Android saga twice They all got wrecked, Goku was almost dead, Vegeta got stomped by 18. They escaped, the Androids went looking for Goku while every one was recouping and training then everyone came back for Cell he got his power up. Beat the poo poo out of everyone then allowed for them to recoup and come back for the Cell games.


Saiyan arc they defeated Radditz then had a grace period to train and the anime show Ed Vegeta coming to earth aand going to planets.

Anytime the main villains are painted as serious threats IE Goku or Vegeta get hurt and the other one doesn't say "Hey you are messing around too much" there's always a time where the good guys lose have to recoup and then train and get stronger

it makes sense that a fully trained SSJ2 is way stronger than SSJ3, SSJ3 was basically Trunks' muscle mode and never really seemed natural

Dont judge me, I design your manhole
Considering all that happened, that episode was strangely well paced, and a bunch of stuff happened that wasn't just fighting. They've come a long way since that five-episode Beerus fight.

Them going back in time is sorta disappointing, but I'm hoping it's going to lead to a point where Trunks can't rely on Goku and Vegeta to fix things for him. We've already gotten them working together, so they're free to split the characters up now.

In a surprise twist, Universe 10's GoD is just a small kitten, and the last episode of this arc is 20 minutes of Goku, Vegeta, and Trunks brutally beating the defenseless thing to death while Bulma, Beerus, and Whis look on. In the end, Zamasu is defeated, but Bulma is so sickened by what she's just seen that she tells Beerus that maybe Zamasu was right after all, and asks him to destroy all the Ningen in their Universe. He obliges, and the final shot of the series is a pan over of everyone's corpses, ending on a lingering shot of a dead baby Pan lying between her parent's remains, as Beerus coldly looks on and Whis cheerfully eats the final Bento box that Bulma made him.

The end.

maybe that's how they beat him, flip the earring on zamasu, fusing him with a ningen, making him hate himself and maybe destroy himself? i also think make goku can teach black kaioken so that goku black uses it and gets boneitis and dies

More specifically, I believe it's during the 10 days between the Cell Games, after Piccolo leaves the chamber and Vegeta asks if Piccolo if he was taking a nap.

Zamasu is from universe 10 right? Is there any chance that Universe 10 is Future Trunks world? Otherwise I can't imagine how the Zamasu's are linked unless Zamasu also time travels.
