At some point Trunks is going to realize killing Bulma before she invents the time machine is the only way to end the madness.

If Beerus is capable of erasing things from existence regardless of timeline or whatever and the only thing that stopped it happening to Black/Zamasu is the time ring, couldn't Beerus just sort of do that to the time machine itself so that it never actually exists at all so it can't ever be used at any point in the past, present or future, it just isn't a thing.

I don't even want to try and figure out the implications of that though.

I think he'd need to erase Bulma for that. If there's no time machine, Trunks' timeline still happens, and Trunks' timeline leads to the invention of the time machine. Unless that erasure means the CONCEPT of the time machine is gone, I suppose, then it's Bad End Trunks Timeline which eventually gets visited by immortal Zamasu if the job ain't done by then.

I bet they'll just threat Super's Future Trunks arc as some kind of alternate dimension a la the GT plotline in XV1.

It makes wonder too if they're going to add in a GoD of Time to match the Supreme Kai of Time down the line.

I watch a lot of time travel movies and shows, and I do have to say I think Super manages to make the concept more interesting than most of them.

Not a high bar to pass I know, but still.

I'm still surprised they held back on making it seem like he and the Supreme Kai of Time digged each other without admitting it. That's literally the most anime thing you can do.

Sometimes, in a city this dirty, you need a real hero.
So, what's to stop Goku/Vegeta just disintegrating Zamasu like they did cell?

Or Goku just instant transmissions his immortal rear end to some far flung point of the universe before coming back to gang up on a Tankless black.

He's immortal, he doesn't have Cell's super regeneration.

Or rather, he does, but it's been turned up to 110.

Grind, you poor fool!

I thought I knew how Black existing worked before I read the thread and now I don't know what to believe anymore. Doesn't Black exist because Trunks and co. used the time machine to find out Zamasu was working with him and warn Beerus? Like how warning about the androids didn't change the future, Black's timeline would've still existed right up until Beerus destroyed him. Then time ring shenanigans, etc, etc.

I'm glad Goku's heart disease at least got a passing mention. I was hoping things would be the other way around and Black got the heart disease Goku body and died from that again, but this works too.

Episode title spoilers: In regards to Zeno getting involved, as lame as it might be for him to get rid of Black and Zamasu, I think it makes sense. They basically killed everyone in Universe Upper Management. It will give some context to the next story arc when we see wtf Zeno actually does.

Nah, just wrangle up a bunch of Saiyan kids from Cabba's planet instead. They seem to be pretty capable fighters.

Piccolo should use the mafuba on Dragonball GT to make sure it's contained in a jar and never seen or heard from again, because it was bad.

I started watching GT for the first time on Hulu recently. It's certainly a trip.

It's like a slightly more messed up, and more dire Dragon Ball so far.

Yeah, there's all sorts of ~*wacky*~ antics, but in the back of your brain, you can't help but think about how the loving Earth will blow up if these dips don't stop goofing around. Why do they keep goofing around?

Also, we've got all of the loving characters from Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z, and we're just focusing on Pan (stereotypical idiot kiddo), Trunks (weirdly competent, but still completely useless), and new kid Goku (boring punch kid). What were they thinking?

In a universe governed by the rules of both Drama and Power Creep this is eventually the only way the plot can keep going to be honest.
