Okay I'm wondering how they are going to get around not using Mafuba every time they fight.

It's not going to work.
It didn't even work on Piccolo Daimao.

So that's how they'll get around it, 'cos it won't work.

Yeah didn't PIccolo end up sealing Kami instead?

Overall pretty decent episode. Kinda hilarious how the zenkai is being abused like hell here with Black Goku.

Also the Mafuba isn't like end all be all tech. Zamasu can just blast the pot or whatever they are using before Black is sealed.

Uh I think they plan on sealing Zamasu with it as he is the one they can't kill.

He's been tapping into Aunt May's bank account!
Didn't I kill him with a HELICOPTER?
I'm guessing Zamasu gets sealed, Black gets beaten up and then he just switches the earring to his other ear to release Zamasu from the seal by fusing with him.

Actually, I take it back.

(future ep title spoiler knowledge) I think the Mafuba will ultimately work but only once the merged Zamasu has been utterly defeated already, to a point where he simply can't fight back and the mafuba will still end up obsolete because any other enemy will be killed by this point, Zamasu won't be because he's immortal.

Funny that Piccolo didn't Mafuba on Super Buu in the time chamber, when Gotenks had kicked his rear end and completely disintegrated him. He really dropped the ball there.

I forget the specific context in the episode, but it's interesting that when the flashed back to the old adult Mai, they gave her the blue eyes she had in Dragonball.

I like all Mai, but blue eyes Mai is my Mai.

I dunno man, I mean Super Buu ripped a goddamn hole in the dimension to get out of the Hyper Time Chamber.

It's certainly my favorite arc so far in Super.

I think I'll need some time before I can decide how it ranks compared to the arcs in DB and DBZ for me though.

If Immortal Zamasu and Black fused, would they become an immortal being, or would they default back to being mortal again?

I imagine the dragon is enough of a rules stickler that the wish will end up not applying to the fusion, because only that one Zamasu wished to be immortal and technically no longer exists if they do the permanent potara fusion

A good reason the mafuba isn't the end-all technique is because it requires specific items: a container with a lid, a string and a talisman. You think Son "Forgot the senzu beans while taking a piss" Goku is going to carry around a backpack full of wizard reagents with him to Neo New Namek 3?

E: That's also the reason Piccolo couldn't have used it on Super Buu in the time chamber.

The only bad thing in this saga is how they keep time travelling back and foward.

Doesn't time travel keep making new timelines each time they do it? Wonder if this will come up in the Tournament arc that is suppose to be next?

Because Zenkai has always raised Saiyans to levels where their combat ability is dramatically appropriate and nothing more.

The dragons are sentient and Sheron's been shown to interpret wishes however he feels like. Super dragon ball dragon's probably real salty about the whole exploding thing

The whole reason Piccolo Daimao went around killing martial artists and pissing off Goku is because he got trapped in a rice cooker by the Mafuba. It would have worked the second time too if Master Roshi had better aim.

I always thought that it was because before Black went and found F.Zamasu he made a second wish for unlimited battle potential or a constant rising battle potential. Since just having Goku's body shouldn't allow him to constantly get stronger.

I don't like this ED or the "Yuka Yuka Dance" or whatever one either. "Forever Dreaming" I really liked.

I'm a bit sick of the OP now though.

It worked really well against Piccolo Daimao the first time since it did the only thing a non-protagonist technique can do: Stall until Goku arrives
