It's pretty insanely impatient to expect a species to move from "barely sapient punching each other over food/mates" to "enlightened society of peace" within 1000 years. Gowasu is a pretty big idiot if that was going to be his big example to Zamasu.

Blaze Dragon posted:They almost beat him. Black was winning easily (and only powering up even further every time to the point not even he knew what the gently caress he was doing anymore), and the Mafuba failed anyways. Even if it had worked, Black would've murdered everyone and freed his other self. I don't know, it feels like it works fine to me. Zamasu had no idea what the hell the Mafuba was, so it's pretty plausible for him to be rattled and think that it's possible that they could have Mafuba'd Black right after they finished with Zamasu. That belief is more than enough for Zamasu to go "okay gently caress it playtime's over let's end this poo poo".

Rutibex posted:Black and Goku switched cloths off screen when Trunks was trapping Zamasu in a jar. It has been Black the whole time. To be honest this would actually be completely believable. Clearly Black realized that there was no way he'd be able to get the Zero Ningen plan done under Zeno's nose so he decided to work within the system. He's doing an excellent job so far, what with damning at least 7 universes and their gods.

It occurs to me that it's probably for the best that they wrote Future Trunks out of the story because he probably would not at all be down with Goku playing brinksmanship with the existence of the universe in order to get an adrenaline high.

Manatee Cannon posted:goku wasn't doing that, he just wanted some fights and was too stupid to think that his pal zen chan would make the stakes what they were Who's to say when he would do it, or if he wouldn't change his mind? The Trunksverse Zen-chan couldn't be assed to bestir himself even when Zamasu was flying around murdering all the gods. I get the feeling that Zen-chan doesn't really take initiative on his own very much, which is why Beerus threatened to loving kill Goku if Goku poked him; if you don't specifically attract his attention there is a 99.999% chance he'll just leave you alone.

ImpAtom posted:I enjoy that the overriding theme of Dragonball Super is that almost everyone in Dragonball could be tougher than Goku if they trained a whole lot. Clearly the baseline Saiyan template is so weak that they need to bust their asses constantly and go through endless training with the gods themselves in order to match up to what someone from the Freeza or Buu races can do with six months and a bowflex.

CharlestonJew posted:Goku needs to go back in time and learn about ring out tournaments from his younger self, he used to have all kinds of crazy tricks. This is the funniest thing about this arc about Goku going around and getting schooled. Goku has more tournament experience than most of these jokers put together bar possibly Krillin, he shouldn't need ring-out tournament advice from Majin loving Buu.

Crabtree posted:Buu using his strech tactfully makes me really hope that he and Piccolo combine their strechy powers to be both very powerful technical offense and a good saftey net for the team guarding against ring outs. Harlem Globetrotters this poo poo up Toei, they have the moves to be really good team players. To be honest, Goku being a giant fire magnet isn't a liability as long as he can avoid getting knocked out. If every super strong dude is trying to kick Goku's rear end that gives the rest of the squad plenty of time to wipe out the weaker opponents while their stronger buddies are trying to beat up Universal Supervillain Son Goku. This is where Krillin and Piccolo could be super useful to the team because they're no match for monsters like Toppo or someone like how Jiren is being built up, but they're super smart and should be able to clown on the B-listers.

eonwe posted:dragonball is good I feel weird when I watch the show because the fights are the least interesting parts to me; I really just love watching all these characters bounce off each other. Even in really punchman-focused relationships like the one between Goku and Hit, it's really fun watching Goku basically draw Hit out of his taciturn shell into an endless game of one-upmanship to the point where Hit is doing goofy poo poo like yelling to power up because he saw Goku do it or Goku hiring Hit to assassinate himself to give Hit a reason to go at 100%.

Aurora posted:Actually some of the best moments are also when they're fighting. See Goku vs Tien, or Jackie Chun vs Tien. Oh, definitely. A lot of the coolest character moments to me often happen as a direct result of the fights, like the Goku/Hit interaction I mentioned. Krillin is my second favorite character in Super after Vegeta and my absolute favorite moment for him was when he was literally shaking after his beam duel with SSB Goku. I'm just less interested in the punching and who is stronger to punch harder and more interested in what happens to the characters as result of the punching.

TheKingofSprings posted:Last I checked 17 had infinite energy, something not even Beerus has. We've never actually seen Beerus fight super seriously. During Battle of Gods he was sandbagging the entire time, and even sandbagging he nearly blew up the universe by virtue of how hard he was punching Goku. He'd probably give Beerus a nice warmup, though, given that he was able to go pretty decently against SSB. As an aside, I really love how Beerus can effectively flip flop between "lazy gluttonous idiot comic relief clown" and "terrifying menace" and have it actually stick, sometimes within the same scene.

You could do it without the Posh British Accent but Goku and Goku Black should sound different. I think it's sort of unjustly baked into American popular culture that smug superior douchebaggery instantly calls to mind some sort of posh European accent, so the directing went for the easy road.

Manatee Cannon posted:the first few tournaments painted goku as a really clever fighter but dbz is more about hitting each other really fast and shooting lasers than it is about that stuff Goku is ridiculously clever in a fight, he just doesn't really waste time coming up with goofy moves when his normal repertoire works fine. His cleverness comes from being basically a savant at seeing through his opponents' tricks and gimmicks so he can counter them with his own significantly more basic moveset. This is why the Hit fights are so cool, because Hit is functionally unbeatable with simple brute force so Goku has to do completely insane things like literally defibrillate himself with a ki blast after Hit kills him simply to try to figure out how to get around Hit's moves so he can apply Kamehameha to Hit's face.

sassassin posted:The funniest joke in the episode is Gohan asking when Piccolo acquired this strange new stretching power. I think Gohan's confusion was more "whoa Piccolo when did you gain the ability to beat the poo poo out of super saiyans like it ain't no thang". Piccolo wasn't even clearly being overpowered at any point and winning purely through trickery like Krillin was doing, he was pretty much going pound for pound with Gohan and then adding trickery on top to make sure he won.

Piccolo can actually be depended on to do intelligent things in support of his teammates, whereas Buu is sort of a "point in the general direction of your enemies and let him go" force of nature. I don't think Mr. Satan is going to be there to ask him to heal Goku after Goku gets pummeled by the four universes combined.

Given how much of a gigantic teamkilling dickhead Freeza was and how underhanded Frost is shown to be, it wouldn't be surprising if Frost beat up/killed the people he hired to invade planets while "liberating them" to avoid having to pay them/for the fun of it.

The Kaioken quite literally IS the hard way of doing things. It's a technique that literally kills you if you gently caress it up, and how long you can use it and how effective it is depends entirely on your personal skill and control; even with perfect control you can only delay it kicking your rear end. Hell, the entire reason why Goku stopped using it was because it was way, way harder than Super Saiyan to use.
