ok but get this toriyama comes from a pretty misogynistic culture that has certain stereotypes about women and mothers and this poo poo was written in the 80's and 90's.

I didn't know Toriyama was brought up in America.

Goku beat the big bad guy in 2 out of the 4 arcs in DBZ. 1 out of the 4 if you include Frieza technically surviving.

I think its time for a Pilaf administration.

How many times has Earth been destroyed under the administration of Dog King? Illegal aliens are coming to Earth every day, and taking the martial arts prizes that should rightfully belong to Earthlings. Enough is enough! Emperor Pilaf will build a force shield that will stop all illegal pod landings on Earth forever, vote Pilaf!

Do we have any indication of where Pilaf's resources came from anyway? Before Goku & Co. showed up, he seemed to have a pretty swanky base. Hell, he could have used the flying fortress that he let Piccolo take over to raid small villages and still make out like a king. Why bother with the Dragonballs?

Who is the 2nd guy again? He got beat by Vegeta and Cell. Didn't manage to do anything against Buu in SSJ3, couldn't gather energy for a spirit bomb by himself and even once Satan helped and everyone chipped in their energy he couldn't finish Buu off without the dragon balls.

He still beat Buu, regardless of how much help he has. Nobody is going "Trunks didn't beat Zamasu" for example.

Technically Hercule beat Buu. Or well, allowed Goku to beat Buu. Which Goku would have not done if Hercule hadn't stepped in as and when he did.

Depends who you want to give the credit. But really Toriyama framed it that way to allow most people to feel satisfied in a way they didn't with the Cell saga. Except Gohan fans. He screwed the pooch on that one.

Taxes? He is an emperor after all. This is why he gets poorer and more desperate after Goku smashes up his palace (and kills all of his citizens).

Yeah, but Dog King's policy of not letting anyone handle the Dragon Balls except for that blue haired chick at Capsule Corps and her weird friends has ensured that every time Earth is destroyed it's all fixed up by next year. Pilaf's reckless use of the magic orange wish balls has resulted in: Frieza coming back, Trunks' terrible, awful, no good, very bad future, and, worst of all, GT. Is that who you want as emperor? The man who caused GT? Because you'll have it over my dead body, which will subsequently be brought back to life at some point in the future because death has no meaning in this universe.

In fairness "they teleport Gohan to the Kai planet and he beats Buu into a smear on the nearest cliff" was both completely an option and would have made for a much less satisfying ending to the series.

The radical space terrorist Frieza would not have been able to even land on Earth had Emperor Pilafs force shield been in place. In fact he would not have even come here if it was not for the illegal Saiyajins and Namekian immigrants living on Earth welfare. All Saiyajins will be deported back to planet Vegita, along anchor babies like Trunks.

So everyone is assuming the next arc will be the big multiverse tournament, right? Or do we think there's going to be something else first?

Zeno is about to show up, so I think that's gonna be the cue for the multiverse tournament, yeah. Maybe they'll do a mini-arc like the Clonegeta one between this one and the tournament, but I'm guessing the next big thing is Multiverse, yeah.

Never. I'm not expecting Super to do a big enough timejump for Trunks and Goten to hit puberty until the very end, actually. I think we're gonna remain at the status quo for a while.

Zamasu felt like NINGEN were the ones ruining and polluting things, he seemed to legitimately not want to blow up planets.

Yeah, Zamasu thought planets would do just fine if, y'know, they didn't have all those sapient races in it. Him trying to blow up everything was his last resort since the stupid ningens refused to die.
