He shows Zamasu a video of the fight between Hit and Goku at the tournament at one point. Then everyone started saying he was a GodTuber and now he actually does make videos in the show.

There was a line during the Goku Black arc where he joked about becoming a GodTuber too.

Also can't wait for Vegeta to get hit by a Pretty Cannon.

Sakurada, one of the producers said this of why he's on U7's team.


Spoilered a potential interesting thing. Curious to see how it works.

Also, where did the Gowasu godtube meme come from? I don't recall any of that during the Goku Black arc.

That is actually a major plot point for the black arc

Of course Goku is going to replace Buu with Freeza. Goku is evil! And when Freeza finds out Goku is about to eliminate countless trillions of souls, he's not gonna let Goku steal all the infamy!

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.
Predictions:

Freeza will shot a death beam and "miss" almost hitting a member of his team. Points if it's somehow Krillian which sends 18 into a rage against him derailing their fight
Tien will probably use Tri-Beam to knock someone out of bounds and that will be his only contribution to the fight
Master Roshi will use his bag of tricks to end up knocking someone out, or will GET SERIOUS and unleash his maximum potential (Which idk if we've even really seen) against one of the female Sayins who knock him out
Gohan will somehow unleash Super Sayin God after Piccalo is accidentally killed or knocked out via underhanded tactics
The universes remaining will team up against the heroes and Vegeta/Goku will either tease or normally fuse
Goku Black will somehow sneak into the tournament again

Master Roshi will molest (or worse) someone/something in the middle of the arena while everyone else alternates between pretending they haven't noticed and laughing about what a crazy, pervy old man he is.

Kale will kill him and get disqualified.

Alternatively this is all building up to Roshi actually legitimately fighting someone like Caulifla/Kale/Ribrianne without any shenanigans but this world isn't perfect.

There's no loving way Roshi will ever have a serious fight with an attractive female character. Even his "training" :gonk: with Puar amounted to nothing.

As someone watching OG Dragonball to kill time between Super releases, I am glad to see him getting some airtime again even though, as a female, some of his scenes literally make me curl into a ball of cringe like I'm guessing how guys do if they watch a scene of someone getting hit really hard in the balls. Even in the original anime his pervert adventures ride a dangerous line between off-color but legit funny (Bulma flushing him down the toilet) and "Jesus Christ someone save that poor girl before he rapes her" (a few Lunch scenes)

I hope that if the preview means that 18 and Krillin ragequit after hearing the truth about the Tournament, that it's all a big setup for my boy Yamcha to come save the day.

EDIT: also there's NO loving WAY the Super crew isn't aware of Abridged after that one Popo scene.

Rape is not nothing.

Krillin and 18 are quitting because they're the only good people on the team.

One thing I'm wondering about, is there demand for more female fighters in Japan as well? Between the team rosters and the high priest straight-up saying "women will totally be relevant in this arc" it kinda feels like the show's addressing fan requests.

The entire last episode felt like a response to internet discussions about the show (dbza Popo, godtuber Gowasu, "why don't we use x powerup?", girl-fighters, is pervy Roshi going too far...)

IMO Sailor Moon was the only authentic part not derived from lurking forums.

It's true. This Japanese anime clearly is written after they read the somethingawful forums. That is the most sensible and logical conclusion to this discussion.

I'm not sure about that at all. There are many forums on the internet besides this one (shocking I know), and language barriers and production schedules mean that responding to our posting that quickly in the show is unlikely.

Also even though she isn't directly involved in the punchmanning, Bulma's role is as large as it was in early Dragonball but in a much more mature way with less fanservice and damsel in distress moments. She holds a ridiculous amount of power for an untrained pure-blooded human. It could be increased demand from female fans. It could also be that this entry into the franchise is being made decades later than the last ones, in the 21st century, with changed sensibilities in mind.

Either way DB has a definite female following and it's really loving cool to see girls actually kick rear end for once. Before this the girls in the show were either nags that served as a "women am I right" joke (Z- era Bulma), kicked rear end for 5 seconds before being demoted to Waifu (Videl), or worst of all both (Chi Chi). I guess 18 is the best example of a fighting girl so far and even she was hit with Waifuitis, but at least got to keep her personality.

What I'm saying is here's hoping Caulifla and Kale kick rear end, stay toe-to-toe with the guys, and don't stop after the tournament to focus on sucking Cabba's dick for eternity.

Launch was always presented as a joke and was constantly humiliated by Master Roshi. The other half of her personality was always an ideal Waifu almost to the point of parody, being shy, demure and helpless, not to mention kind of dumb. Also her other half was a "crazy bitch", not a deeply explored action girl character.

Mai kind of counts, but she was a bumbling henchman and never a "main" side character like the others. Future Mai definitely counts but again, that's Super era.

To keep Frieza in line Bulma forcefeeds him the same pill she made Oolong eat in Dragonball but makes the trigger word "monkey", so not only does Jaco have complete control but if Frieza ever tries to mock Goku again he violently shits himself

Look in this franchise we have the same humanoid body plan in the entire universe, hell, in MULTIPLE UNIVERSES. Countless planets that grew sentient life, and they all have the same exact body plan as human beings with little poo poo glued on like tails or wings as the most dramatic variation.

The grand lesson the franchise is trying to teach us, one we should take to heart dearly, is that everybody poops

I don't think he actually gains or loses organs, he just moves them around, so he probably has nards in his final form: however, the balls are inert.

I don't think its a stretch to assume they're basically the same species. Like somehow Beerus and Champa are brothers but ended up as GoDs of separate universes, so they might originally come from the Pride Trooper's one.
