Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

I vaguely recall people saying the multiverse people were mad because super took its thing and also contradicted it on every point

"B-but, Toriyama! There should be infinite parallel universes where all my fanfics are true! 12? Why Toriyama? Why 12 where they are all different, unique, and themed!? Where our main universe is martial artists/fantasy based, Universe 11 is male Japanese superhero based, Universe 2 is female japanese superhero based, etc. etc.? Why is the main universe the evil alternate universe of Universe 6? Why isn't Broly here? Okay, now he is, but he is a girl and I hate girls! They're icky and won't touch my smega coated penis! Toriyama, why can all the side characters matter now? Master Roshi and Tien should be utterly irrelevant! We should just be seeing 1000 alternate Gokus fighting!? Don't you read Marvel Comics!? This is how the science of Parrell Earth's work! Why isn't Evil Goku a rapist? Don't you want to be edgy? You SJW loving, piece of garbage! You made female Super Sayians who are tough and independent!? You loving suck! You're awful!? Super Sayian Blue!?!? gently caress this! What is this poo poo!? Beerus is just a house cat! I just can't! I just can't! Why isn't the world eternally like it was when I was 10!? When everything was perfect forever and ever! I hate you Toriyama! I hate you!"

Kind of lost my mind there for a minute.

Universe 7 turning out to be the evil twin universe is probably my most favorite thing to come out of all of Super. I was actually expecting the earthlings to start wanting their team to lose in the first Tournament, so they'd be teleported somewhere that was less of a hellhole.

You know, Earth is destroyed in Universe 6 and Universe 7 is the evil, alternate universe. Coincidence? I think not!

Edit: Though, just to clarify, the "Evil Goku being a rapist" thing is a thing in DBM. That wasn't me making things up. In his first fight, he fights someone who fights like Ranfan and it gets weird.

Also, wow, Ranfan. That character was certainly...wow, product of its times, right?

Also, for that matter, making General Blue gay AND a pedophile. I mean, maybe the later was anime-only, but it's weird to pat yourself on the back for giving gay representation (look it up, Toriyama basically does in the comic), but then making them also a pedophile.

Oh my god, if Goku and co had lost the Universal Tournament then when the Tournament of Power rolled around Universe 6 would have been completely unstoppable and would have been able to assemble a Supergroup of Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Hit, Kale, Piccolo, Frieza(if revived), Frost, Buu (if awake) and Caulifla or whatever combo would have been most powerful. There would be no conflict for survival between the characters the show has spent the most time with and all the other universes would have been creamed.

Nah, Freeza is back and he's still got 23 hours to live.

I kind of hope Freeza gets erased in this or the next arc. For two reason, really. One, it would mean they would stop using him a crutch villain. Two, it would mean GT is 100% non-canon forever.

It was originally meant to be 100 episodes long but we know it'll surpass that already so it's very hard to say whether things will end here or not. That said, we still have one big plot point the series has not delivered on (Goku telling Hit that they'll rebel against the Gods) so it's very unlikely this is the end.

There's no way they'd have this massive expansion of the DB world and constantly tease characters like Uub and Pan, all the while enjoying record ratings and making bank on merchandise and games and stuff, and decide to end it after this arc.

I predict the "rebel against the Gods" to happen mid tournament of power.

But they have also been building up Pan pretty hard, and that has yet to pay off. I expect a time skip after the end of the tournament arc.

If nothing else Nozawa's age seems like it could threaten the long-term prospects of the show, given the reverence for veteran seiyu in Japan I imagine Goku's death or retirement would extremely problematic

Yeah, that might be the deciding factor as I'm not sure if they'd be willing to recast someone as iconic as Goku and he's too popular for them to try doing a show without him (as much as it would be nice to have somebody else in the spotlight for a change).

It would be doubly rough because the original probably "successor" has the same voice actor. They'd have to do a time skip and have it be Pan and Bra's Excellent Adventure That's Not GT.

It's a wrestling term. It refers to the act of losing to make the other look good. Those who do it are "jobbers." All this jargon came public knowledge thanks to the internet breaking "kayfabe," the fake personality wrestlers put on when they wrestle, and, with it, all the secrets behind wrestling.
