Kinda curious? What do those bios say?

Universe 1 is these guys:

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/u01.jpg

According to the Mortal Levels, their universe is the number 1 greatest. Even though Universe 12 is the second-best universe, and all of their gods are bored and hardly need to work because their universe is so perfect. It seems like the U12 gods can't even think of a way to make their universe better, which makes U1 suspicious.

  • U1 Kaioshin: Anato. Has a "kind smile". He was also the one Kaioshin who agreed with the Tournament of Power being necessary to destroy 2/3rds of the universes.

  • U1 God of Destruction: Iwan. He has an explosive temper and looks like Shiva under his fur. He was also the only God of Destruction not bothered by Universe 9's erasure.

  • U1 Angel: Awamo. He can "sense everything".

Based on those bios, I always figured Goku would go to U1 at some point and discover it's a false utopia where everyone lives in fear. If anyone acts in a way the gods don't like, Awamo tells Iwan and he destroys them, and Anato is the one who came up with this master plan. Then Goku would fight Iwan and he would transform into his Shiva form.

[up][up]Good catch. The only flaw is that worshippers see Shiva as omni-benevolent, but since when have minor details like that stopped people from portraying Hindu gods as evil?

In Dragon Ball Legends, we follow Raditz as he arrives to follow up on his brother's mission. He meets the Farmer with a Power Level of 5, and quickly dispatches him. However, when Raditz detects increasingly huge power levels, things don't go as plan...

I was kinda hoping for the next arc. They'd use the demon realm. It's like so weirldly untouched by Canon material? I was also hoping to know the difference between demons like Majin Buu and King Piccolo and the residents of their.

Hol up

1) In DBS Broly Goku and Vegeta knew Broly needed to be put down. Both these two have shown mercy to Cell and Freeza who both actively murdered millions and threatened their planets. Hell Goku being lenient towards Freeza was what caused a catastrophe in the previous film! Yet Broly after an hour and a half of having a temper tantrum was on their MAKE SURE HE'S DEAD list.

2) Shenron moved Broly. Shenron can't move people who are stronger than his creator. Did Gogeta punch Broly down to Dende's power level.

Shenron can't move people stronger than his creator without their permission. And you can see that Gogeta beat the consciousness back into Broly because his pupils are back while he's screaming in terror at the Kamehameha hurtling toward his face. Meaning this happened in Broly's mind:

  • Shenron: "Would you like me to save you?"

  • Broly: "AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"

  • Shenron: "I'll take that as a yes."

Another thing from DBS Super Hero.

  • Gohan pretty much walked through their base the way Goku did long ago.
  • Pan wrecked that pompadour guy not unlike how Goku wrecked the black dude long ago.
  • Why does Gohan suffer from poor vision if going Super Saiyan improves all of your senses?

Gohan's bad eyesight is from over-exhausting his eyes from studying too much.

Unironically, one of my favorite attacks in the series. Super Buu is kinda underrated.

The fact that the attack deliberately avoids hitting Mr. Satan is a nice touch. It'd be funny if it did the same in the video games.

I like to think Toriyama was aware king piccolo had a anti climatic opening scence.

So went out of his way to make his later big bad get insane entrances to show how formidable they are. Vegeta and Nappa destroying the city, Frieza executing their minion, Cell sucking the life out of someone, Super buu's human extinction attack and Kid buu blowing up the earth.

Also something I love about this scence is it demonstrates the fact super buu is very intelligent. Like they expect he's a dumb brute but he actually sees through their stalling. And js able to accurately figure out where every surviving human is.

....The thing is, I'm not sure he did see through their stalling.

He just employed a solution that countered their delay.

Because when you think about it, he didn't have to kill everyone on Earth. It had nothing to do with why he was there: to fight the strong fighter. And there wasn't much they could do to stop him from just making them take him to Gotenks.

They said kill everyone on earth. He could have said, fuck you! Take me to the strong dude! Instead, he took their bait, but in the worst way possible.

That's not to say he still didn't outsmart them. It was just in a sort of brute force kind of way.

Krillin's first death scence

It's kinda weird to see How one scence can radically change a show.

This scence is basically the start of the transition bwteen The original comedic Dragon ball and the darker Z.

Theirs just something darkly forbidding about it.
