Zamatsu hates more than just humans. We have all those scenes with him grumbling at those dinosaur cavemen dudes and wanting to wipe them out.

I guess the word they could use is "beings" because Zamatsu seems to at the very least, hate all races that have sentience. There's just no convenient one word translation that could be used and I think mortals comes way closer than humans ever did.

"mortal" works because "Immortal" doesn't just mean "can't be killed" but is more readily used to mean "Will live forever." Gods are immortal, humans are mortal, and tons of mythology has gods that can die but are still immortal, and the fact that a mortal challenging a god upset Zamasu a ton really makes it clear that it's the 'not a god' part that is important.

Agreed. It is nice to have some villains with longer term goals than finding the Dragonballs, and/or beating up Goku. Black did what every other DB villain tried to do (found the dragonballs, killed goku), and that was just him getting started.

So, Harvey, what became of the giant penny?

They actually let him keep it.
Since DB Super is basically an animated fanfic, I'm going to throw a wild guess that Gogeta won't be able to kill a fused Zamasu, and Trunks will have to become a god of destruction so Whis can come save everyone.

That Angel thing has got to pay off eventually, although I'm not sure it's gonna be this arc.

Also my mind immediately went Evangelion when I heard "so Whis is an ANGEL????". Beerus, get on the fuckin' robot.

That involves Goku. No one is allowed to use the dragon balls except Goku and his friends, because Goku owns the 4-star ball.

it would be cool if trunks saves the future by becoming a new god of destruction. i wonder if the inverse of the kaioshin-hakaishin link works, if the creation of a god of destruction results in the genesis of a new kaioshin

You have it backwards. Its not hooking up with Vegita that made Bulma not lame, that was just a side effect. It was putting a stop to hooking up with Yamcha.

I mean, we can't really respect her as a super genius character when shes dating Yamcha.

She's good with technology but generally dumb as bricks. Who in their right mind would talk poo poo to Krillin's awesome girlfriend?

Dating a professional baseball player was the highlight of her life, and she cries at night having to sleep next to the jobless streetfighting bum who knocked her up when she threw him a pity lay (after aforementioned baseball player cheated on her again).

His card refers to him as Vegeks. Which is really lazy as a name, being only one kana away from Vegeta and Trunks' EX Fusion, Vegenks.

This episode was really loving good. I love how Black just immediately tries to kill Gowasu for the third time in a row. Vegeta's beatdown on Black was glorious.
The preview pretty much spoiled the entire next episode huh? We kinda knew they were going in this direction though, and I'm really excited about it.

Sure, but what makes him interesting to me is his origin and ties to Kami. And he could puke up minions and sons, and he did evil magic.

Speaking of Piccolo and Kami. They're awfully similar to Whis + Beerus + Supreme Kai in conception. If one dies the others die.

I find it interesting that Black and Zamasu said they killed all the gods. does that mean they got to Zeno too? I doubt it, but it's a possibility. I want Whis to just pop back into existence if they decide to promote Trunks to God of Destruction.
