Area 51. You heard of it, right?





Fallen Rib
White Chain is gonna beat Allicio's rear end a bit and then job completely to Salami Dave. Allicio fights desperately to escape as Dave starts loving them up with Kung Fu bullshit.

B-Team pulls the ripcord and escapes, Allicio gives everything in one last flurry then wills themselves away.

Salami Dave is left in the ruins. Some schmuck is like "Paternum...?" Frame pivots and we see that he's been scratched by Allicio's final desperate attack. There's a single drop of blood.

It says the old law "stops" them from welding it, suggesting not just that they aren't allowed to, but can't. But I'm just guessing that - it'd certainly be interesting to see what happens if one tried, I suppose.

White Chain is really pretending that the Thorns won't immediately kill Allison when she hands off the key.

Also, continues to make the exact opposite criticism of Allison from the reasonable one (that she's a reckless idiot who doesn't think before trying to play hero).

Yeah, what possible reason does Allison have for relinquishing the key? Everyone is going to try to kill her of she has it or not, it's the only thing keeping her alive.

I do not like white chain and I hope she explodes.

That and she has it on good authority that she's the real heir.

That said, I just think Allison doesn't have a plan beyond "rescue Zaid". She's committed to this life, whichever way it takes her, but that's all she's decided so far.

It just struck me.

This is Maya he's talking about, isn't it? Maya is the actual demiurge. I only just connected all the pieces of her history with Incubus. It's her throne, and she walked away from it. The others still think of her as the real demiurge, and Incubus as, like... an emissary of hers, in a way. Because she walked away.

I know I'm probably super late to the party on this realization, hah.

As a lifelong DB fan it really is infuriating to see so much low hanging fruit and so many clever twists just continuously left on the table by Toriyama because his brain is literally Goku's. Like, the entire future time travel plot in Super hinges on going back and forth in time, hoping that the future people can hold out in their fight until the heroes get back to the future, because for some reason no one thinks to travel to one second after they left. If they spend three ours in regular time, they travel back to three hours after they left when they return to the future and it's maddening

I'd honestly love to see what Dragon Ball would be like if the My Hero gang got to make it for a while, since that show actually does a decent job of exploring the various logical conclusions of powers and situations. Plus maybe they'd let the female characters do anything ever.

Funny you should say that, because a lot of us over in the MHA anime thread are bitchin' because they assembled a bunch of female heroes for the big team-up event, and then didn't let them do anything while each of the male heroes got a full episode each, with significant flashbacks and everything. :doh:

Pretty sure with how DB time travel works doing that would just split the timeline again, so they wouldn't solve the problem at all. Especially since every time they did that they'd create more Zamasus that can travel between timelines.
