Also lol that Zeno, an imbecile child who can barely string a sentence of more than four words together, has sat down and worked out a mathematical formula to compare the relative merits of the populations of each universe. I'm gonna be really surprised if the High Priest isn't pulling the strings and manipulating the Zenos to pursue his own agenda.

What agenda could he possibly have? The only way up for him would be ousting Zeno somehow, and a weird death tournament doesn't seem like it would help.

He could be manipulating the universes for his own end in some way which retains him being effectively god.

I am definitely sticking to this being an rear end in a top hat isolation plan. Maybe Zeno, maybe the High Priest. Shove all the lovely universes into a corner so no one has to look at them.

He wants to have Zeno destroy five universes so that they are left with seven. Then he will renumber them, and use the remaining universes to summon super shenron God super shenron to wish to be a super angel.

Then Goku will punch him.

Arrak is based off of




Arrak

The turkish/arabic name for an anise liquer. Its very much like sambuca, and pretty much every eastern mediterranean country makes some form of it.

Arrak is also a generic term in arabic for any distillate.

I like that idea that the old Dai-Kaioshin didn't consider it important to immediately tell all 4 of his underlings, when they got their job, about either the moody ultra child that they actually work for OR the moody catman and lazy angel who are supposed to be their coworkers.


Also while we're complaining about lore, why the gently caress are the gods of 6 and 7 brothers? Did Whis or Vados just find these random two lazy cat brothers fighting over something in the corner of 6 or 7, go "holy poo poo!" and they mutually agreed to throw out their current Gods in favor of Beerus and Champa?

One of them at least gives enough of a gently caress to organise a tournament to determine which should be purged.

One of the Pride Troopers looks a lot like Beerus. It's possible they originated from Universe 11. But they have been alive for a really long time.

That mostly relied on Frieza's own natural ability to even be alive as a collection of cubes, and the first time they revived him as a cyborg he was a pile of trash compared to what Dr. Gero made.

Goku stopped trying to come up with a way to beat Beerus & co the second he realised the Gods of Destruction are just a symptom of the horror, not the cause.

He's not here to fight Vegeta, he's going to deck Frieza.

Maybe they're an immortal species of cat-people, and Whis/Vados thought it would be best to train Gods of Destruction that weren't going to wear out after a few decades.

YOU CAN NOT BUST THE KRUST
Gohan is a hard guy to understand. He loves his wife, child, and family, and knew the extreme stakes of the Tournament beforehand, after Goku explained what was going on. But when Gohan starts losing his battle, he pulls the classic: "NAH GUYS, I DON'T NEED A SENZU BEAN. I WANNA BEAT HIM USING MY OWN POWER!!!!!"

Uh, dude, if you lose the tournament, your family and universe could be erased from existence. Maybe just eat the drat senzu bean, next time? :raise:

This tournament is an exhibition, nobody's getting blown up. They say that in the episode. So if Gohan can't win here without outside assistance, there's no way he'll be able to hack it in the real tournament.

Probably because this is an exhibition match with no stakes (beyond maybe getting killed)? No one is getting erased if they lose these matches.

I'm loving how everyone is on PTSD denial that power levels are back and argue that mortal ranking evaluates development and wealth

Can't wait to have Kaioshin next episode asking "Excuse me, what does mortal ranking take into consideration for ranking?" only for the High Priest to answer "Why, how good your universe is at Kung fu ofc".

But we don't know what Gohan is capable of today. Even if he's become a scholar and family man, he's still Gohan. He's always been insanely powerful, even as a little boy. He beat Garlic Jr. just by being pissed off, while Goku and Piccolo were basically screwed. Ridiculous power is pretty much written into the character's DNA.

he's unstoppable when he's mad but getting him mad is real hard
