I cannot wait to see how Tien has some how absurdly worked his way up the reigns to be barely on the level of Beerus while all the other humans slacked off again.

Seriously the fact that Tien went up against Super Buu is hilarious. Sure he couldn't do anything but the sheer fact that he didn't get instantly merced is better than Krillin

Eh, I would say he got 'instantly merced.' He deflected a blast that wasn't aimed at him, cut a man made of goo in half with a sucker punch, and then Buu actually noticed him and knocked him out with one kick-without even bothering to reattach his legs.

Respect the moxie, though.

One of my favorite bits of DBZ filler is when Krillin manages to get the Destructo Disk off against Kid Buu, but because it was Kid Buu it doesn't matter.

The Destructo Disk has to cut Freeza vertically instead of horizontally.

Honestly surprised that worked, considering Freeza survived planetary implosion and Cooler tanked getting thrown into the sun.

Trunks slicing him up wasn't even what killed him, according to Revival of F. When he got wished back he was alive despite still being ice cubes. It was the blast after he got julienne'd by Trunks that did him in.

Freeza survived Trunks slicing him into pieces. He just did not survive being disintegrated. Freeza's biggest issue is that he can't regenerate from those wounds. So being sliced in half would be bad for him.

Freeza's cells is why Cell was so durable as Piccolo can't survive a lot of the stuff that happened to Cell, but Cell can thanks to the Freeza part of him, which works well with Piccolo's regeneration.

this is the 17 I want, because he didn't get the whole 'love inspired the wish to fix me' thing to help soften him up. I want him to be a cool dad, but I also want his version of cool dad to be 'and if you see some little shits playing with matches, you just beat them up until they're REALLY sorry'.

There will be zero forest fires in his park, or everyone's going to suffer.

Also yay if that isn't a horrible tease of an ad then I get my wish of the androids being relevant AND Buu and Tien doing stuff hopefully.

I reeeally think TFS is way off in their beerus stuff movie beerus is a lot less menacing because he has to be movie beerus only gets an hour to go from mostly bad to kinda good Super beerus has at least a 100 episodes to go through his arc so yeah he's going to be more evil at the start and become more complex as we come to understand him more.

Except it's way more boring to see him take that character arc, and stuff like the bulma slap going from impulse to a ten minute build-up actively hurts the character as much as it does the pacing

TFRazorsaw posted:

Honestly, I disagree with them more about Beerus than I do Zamasu. That we didn't see the "dirty" part of his job was, in my opinion, to BoG's detriment. In the movies, all of the more unsavory aspects of his character are strictly informed, and not shown.

Beerus should be like a dangerous animal, restrained by his own whims and selfishness, and I think Super has a better handle on that.

I think it's to Super's detriment that they had Beerus in the BoG arc behave like a malicious dick. Beerus' characterization works far better as someone who's just supremely self-assured and doesn't go out of his way to be an rear end in a top hat.

Edit: Also the next chapter of the manga has photos floating around and in it Black gets the stuffing beaten out of him and requires an emergency heal by Future Zamasu.

I swear, if he actually uses Super Electric Strike during this...

A thought occurs, though. "Universe Survival." I'm suddenly picturing something similar to "I'm a celebrity, get me out of here!" or other survival game show thingies that have been about over the years.

There's an anime filler scene immediately after Cell absorbs 18 where Krillin attacks him and uses the Destructo Disc, which sort of splashes against Cell's neck and dissipates harmlessly while Cell is too busy checking himself out to notice.
