Maybe they come from a planet with multiple animal species but they are all purple and hairless, like how Earth has dozens of hairless humanoids.

I'm glad Pride Trooper bunny is a rabbit rather than a Beerus clone, it's more interesting.

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...)

The bolded most especially is dumb, given the two week turn around you're implying with that.

I think we all know its a setup for a joke either involving him perving on Kale and Caulifla and prompting them to go enraged Super Saiyan, especially Kale, or having him fight reverse Sailor Moon and be unable to do anything because of his old man boner until she transforms and he's like 'She's ugly now! I can concentrate again!' and he wins.

Of course in an ideal world he'd by erased from existence by that Nefertiti God of Destruction the second she sees him and Yamcha has to take his place at the last second but that's not going to happen.

Did they make the rabbit super hero guy look exactly like Beerus on purpose? Why not pick a different color scheme?

He looks a bit different but the message is probably that Beerus and Champa are part of an alien race rather than being creatures that are only gods or whatever.

It can still feel like a response to discussion even if it was written and produced before that discussion takes place.

We were all condemning Roshi's monstrous actions, and now he's trying/pretending to change his ways. Perhaps similar discussions took place in the Dragonball Super writers room.

Same reason they didn't gather the dragonballs and wish for Goku to be immortal. Same reason they didn't build another time machine just in case the tournament goes south.

If the writers had any clue what they were doing Goku and Gohan would jump in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber right now and spend the next three months beating each other half to death to max their Zenkai boosts. loving hacks.

Hey um I don't want to poo poo up this thread with off-topicness, but is there a place on SA to discuss Xenoverse 2? I didn't see a Games chat in thread search and this thread appears to be just for the TV show.

Would Goku even have hidden potential to bring out? Gohan spent all his time off not training, but Goku does nothing but get stronger. I can't imagine that ceremony would do very much for him.

The Walking Dead has actual bad writing that gets in the way of the show. Meanwhile DB fans are obsessive about inconsequential stuff and would ruin the show if any of their ideas made it in. Example: the Super manga.

A long form zombie series can't have good writing, because the characters have to be irrational to ever get caught by zombies. Zombies are a metaphor for for other anxieties, so it only works as a movie. The characters are supposed to commit suicide at the end, but that just doesn't work when you need to make a new episode next week.

Dragon Ball Super should do what Overwatch does: the main thing isn't actually canon, it's random fights for no reason. Any actual lore will be in short, easily ignored one-shots.

Dragon Ball started as a gag manga that just so happened to have punching in it and eventually added more punching to the mix, but the core is the same. I suppose it became more soapy after Z too.

It's a strictly multiplayer online shooter. It's not like they could fit an actual story into the game itself. Also the story doesn't matter at all, because it is again an online multiplayer shooter.
