TwoPair posted:Is it though? I mean, in Universe 7 Majin Buu ate a Supreme Kai and iirc the Old Kai was a Supreme Kai that got his rear end magicked into a sword and the universe didn't end. The universe doesn't end, but presumably with something mean enough to take out your divine hierarchy running around, things are going to get real bad because presumably they're not going to stop there. Majin Buu only barely got stopped from killing everyone and everything by the fat supreme kai getting absorbed and turning Buu into Fat Buu. Future Trunks's world is also a pretty good example, though that was a deliberately targeted assassination strike.

Assuming that is something the GoD is supposed to take care of and that they aren't sleeping.

Carlosologist posted:Yeah, it’s stated in the Trunks arc that the lives of GoDs and Supreme Kais are inextricably connected. If I recall, Supreme Kai died fighting Buu so Beerus also died Interestingly now that we've seen the whole Trunks timeline Buu Saga thanks to the Kakarot DLC it seems that turning the Z Sword to stone counts as "killing" Old Kai. Supreme Kai dies from exerting himself while helping Trunks kill Dabura after being fatally wounded shortly before.

Iirc it was mentioned or implied that Destroyers are extremely long lived but not truly immortal, and I think something similar is implied for Kais given they age visibly. And/or possibly want to retire eventually.

Beerus stuck Old Kai in the Z Sword instead of killing him, too. Smartly keeping himself safe, I guess. Then he got someone even worse to be linked to.

Why determining who will serve as a Kaio they draw lots, with the role of supreme Kai only the ones from the golden fruits draw lots, unless the Supreme has a chosen successor who agrees to take it up.

Beerus is dead in Trunk's timeline. Thus, Trunks is the strongest in the universe, as long as Moro stays in jail.

amigolupus posted:So what does it say about Vegeta that the two people he's been with for huge periods of his life both have the same mindset with their wish? Well, so did Commander Red. The common denominator there, actually, is that they're all very powerful people who are specifically seeking out the Dragon Balls to give them something that their own wealth, power and technology can't provide. Remember that Bulma originally wanted a perfect boyfriend- and given she starts out as the genius heir to a massive fortune, I imagine she had a lot of trouble finding one who wasn't a gold digger and still respected her. Immortality is one thing, but the magic of an Eternal Dragon can presumably do body alteration much better than even advanced cosmetic surgery can. (it can resurrect the dead, after all) And of course, the other common factor is that they're among the few people who have the luxury to spend the time and resources scouring the globe/universe for magical orbs.

To be honest it’s not hard to imagine Dragonball-era Bulma having boy problems just on the basis of, you know, being the kind of person who sees a twelve year old orphan’s memento of his grandpa and convinces him to help her use it to get a boyfriend without mentioning the part where the memento wishrock flies off into the ether post-wish.

That doesn't help, no, but well, she was a teenager at the time. Had a sudden realisation that Goku Black is basically a more competent and successful Captain Ginyu. Goes along a bit with a theme of DBS villains taking gimmicks from DBZ villains but actually having the power and competence to back it up, see also Hit being an actually competent Guldo.
