This is the same Kai that didn't realise that Goku and Vegeta were more powerful than basically anything else in the universe.

There might be a few oversights.

He doesn't keep track of fight power. Punchsports aren't his thing.

No it's impossible that this universe devastated by universal threats like Buu or Frieza could only have a few planets

It doesn't both me, but that number does feel too low. Even 28,000 would still be a low number of planets.

There are 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 stars in the actual universe. Even 28,000 with sapient life would be a pretty low ratio.

God the 28 planets thing is dumb. Beerus has casually wiped out 1/15th of all life sustaining planets in the galaxy on screen in Dragonball Super.

Didn't they say he'd blown up 8 and a half planets?

So really it's closer to a fifth.

The 28 planets thing doesn't seem like it's worth thinking about too much because it seems like the sort of thing the writers themselves didn't put too much thought into. The writers likely just picked a number that would be low enough for Supreme Kai to be able to scout them all out and come back empty handed (or with fighters who are still weaker than the ones from Earth) within 48 hours. It'll likely just boil down to being used as part of a quick joke or at the absolute most something along the lines of an episode where Supreme Kai goes hopping between planets with Jaco as his guide.

I mean RoF arc had them (Freiza's Army) say they had like 500 planets under their control or some poo poo. http://mangastream.com/r/dragon_ball_z_rebirth_of_f/1/2705/8

Not to mention the Galactic Alliance, Earth, Yardrat, New Namek, the planet with the guy who knows everything, the planet goku learned fusion from, the planet Tarble is on, the planets of the two goons Babidi brought, the planet that Whis mentioned had a nice sauce. Like Frieza was the ruler of a single galaxy in a Universe with trillions of Galaxies if it's anything like ours.

The way I see it there are three options here:

1. There are more than 28 planets with sapient life, and Beerus and Supreme Kai are so bad at their jobs they don't realize that.

2. There used to be way more planets with sapient life, and Beerus and Supreme Kai are so bad at their jobs that they let Freeze, Buu, et al. destroy most of them

3. There being only 28 planets with sapient life is pretty normal for the size of the universe, and Beerus and Supreme Kai are so bad at their jobs that they can't even properly keep track of that handful.

Regardless of which is right, I feel confident that the reason U7 is the second worst universe falls pretty squarely on their shoulders.

Doesn't each universe only have like four galaxies in them, with one Kai responsible for each? 28 does seem kinda goofy but I thought Dragon Ball was meant to have a relatively compact cosmology compared to our own.

Yeah, I think there were only four galaxies, then Broly blew one up. 28 still seems low, even accounting for Beerus, Freeza, Buu, or whatever, but who knows, Dragonball is weird. Maybe Xeno iced a few while playing Xeno-Chess.

Man, if you think this is anywhere near autist levels of DBZ discussion, you clearly have not been in the DBZ fandom long. Would you care for a multipage discussion of Original music versus Faulconer score? Or perhaps a lenghty discussion of whether Super Perfect Cell was stronger than Dabura? Hell, I'm pretty sure that over half the people in this thread could whip up a full thesis-length justification of why Kid Buu is stronger than Gohan-absorbed Super Buu or vice-versa at a moment's notice.

It would be hilarious if it turns out u6 was lower or had roughly the same ningen level as u7, but Beerus wishing u6's earth back bump it up a few places ahead.


Also, Bulla was conceived after Vegeta got access to Blue Form. Bulla is going to kick so much rear end.

i really hope we see some of u6 earth

though i'm also curious what the other gods think of body modification like the androids. the kais seemed p down on it, but then again they've been down on a lot of poo poo no-one cared about a lot

I just wish they would stop fooling around eating food and birthing babies. Every hour they waste with bullshit is 15.2 days of training they are pissing away in the time chamber. Why is Goku flying around to find people? You can teleport! Why aren't they telling the other fighters whats at stake? I'm pretty sure Bulma would be on point and stop fooling around if they told her what was happening.
