I'm not making a fucking QCS thread for this but seriously can we take a harder stance on Kiwifarms freaks like this guy, Jesus Christ seriously, you used to be better at knocking these creeps down. I guess ADTRW mods aren't responsible like GBS mods are.

I think they might be okay, if they lean harder into the "Ginyuys but as good guys" angle, honestly. Right now, they're too hard to take seriously, but they're also not goofy enough to actually be fun, so they sit this middle ground of just being dull.

Dude lived through getting knocked into a goddamn mountain by Perfect Cell. By DBZ standards, Hercule is a wimp, but in another universe, he'd be a goddamn superhero.

If Buu turns fat again after his sleep I'm dropping this show.

Why? Fat Buu generally tends to tank blows better with his larger body.

I don't mind if he's fat or fit, so long as he pulls his weight.

Fat protecting you from harm is a myth.

You don't get stronger by training, you get stronger by recovering from training ("zenkai boosts"), and sleep lowers levels of cortisol etc. that encourage fat storage.

Buu is going to wake up lean and healthy and ready to compete, while Gohan and Piccolo chasing "hard bodies" this close to competition is going to hurt their performance levels.

DB & DBZ taught kids good lessons about getting in shape and punching your enemies. In contrast Super is a mixed bag so far.

This is the funniest thing about this arc about Goku going around and getting schooled. Goku has more tournament experience than most of these jokers put together bar possibly Krillin, he shouldn't need ring-out tournament advice from Majin loving Buu.

Buu using his strech tactfully makes me really hope that he and Piccolo combine their strechy powers to be both very powerful technical offense and a good saftey net for the team guarding against ring outs. Harlem Globetrotters this poo poo up Toei, they have the moves to be really good team players.

Also Goku's gonna be their biggest liability. He's gonna forget about the rules constantly throughout the early fights because all he still cares about is glory hogging good fights against strong dudes all for himself.

To be honest, Goku being a giant fire magnet isn't a liability as long as he can avoid getting knocked out. If every super strong dude is trying to kick Goku's rear end that gives the rest of the squad plenty of time to wipe out the weaker opponents while their stronger buddies are trying to beat up Universal Supervillain Son Goku.

This is where Krillin and Piccolo could be super useful to the team because they're no match for monsters like Toppo or someone like how Jiren is being built up, but they're super smart and should be able to clown on the B-listers.

Goku seems genuinely excited about the rules and trying to win matches, it's not simply bloodlust (see his argument with a child over who won a practice round). Remember that he cared more about winning the tournament than "defeating" Piccolo in Dragonball.

Gohan's the liability because he's dumb as a brick and a bad fighter who has always relied on rage freakouts (and he usually gets murderous during those).

I'm glad that the Heroic Pride Troopers are going to triumph over the evil Son Goku and his villainous Tournament of Power where people fight and their universes are destroyed for his amusement. I am sure the glorious Pride Troopers will also then use the wish of the Super Dragonballs to return all of the universes back to life, as true warriors of Justice would do so.

I look forward to the adventures of the protagonist Toppo the Warrior of Freedom and his close friend Jiren The Grey.

Maybe they all follow a certain effective order, like all of life and the Otherworld itself running like a perfect machine. Creation flows effortlessly into destruction and vice versa, the heavenly bureaucracy is managed better than you could think and they give Xeno a good show on GodTube.

mortal level has nothing to do with technology. u6 still has a super assassin taking down mob bosses and u11 needs a sentai team to combat monsters of the week destroying random planets
