This is why there aren't any purple, green, or purely orange super forms.

They can make it gold on default for marketing and let you change the color for your actual character. Other games with custom features do it.

No they don't and the Freeza race avatars for Heroes go Hold too.

Look, at the end of the day, Freeza's transformation is the only one they have to work with.

Unless we eventually have Frost go Silver or something, it probably will always be Gold.

They could have a Pink Gold option...or a metallic color option.

To be fair, the Gold form is the only way they could market it; the original color form is just a slightly altered True Form Frieza who looks slightly buffer. Half of the people who saw it would probably just mistake it for Frieza's true form, and even then Cooler's Super Evolution looks more marketable and intimidating than that; making it gold at least makes it look like Frieza's own version of the Super Saiyan transformation.

Arcosians are just universally Lakers fans.

What is an 'Arcosian'?

(Hint: There is no race in Dragon Ball named 'arcosian')

Typing Arcosians is easier than typing Frieza's Clan/Race.

[up]I suppose I could use this term, though.

Got that from the old dub.

Since apparently giving a name to Frieza's race isn't important somehow.

And well never see any other members besides Frieza, his dad, the non-canon Coola, and Frost, I imagine it never will.

Though I don't follow how it's not important to name the race of one of the most popular villains the series (enough that they came up with a way to bring him back). You'd think that'd be a bit of world building he'd want to explore.

I think Frieza's race has just started growing organic armor over their bodies.

Also, I hope Majin Piccolo is a thing in Xeno Verse 2.

Freeza's race is mutant, as is everyone in his army, and planet trading organization, except for that time he had those saiyans working for him. Wonder whatever happened to them?

And no apparent genitalia isn't necessarily a problem. That's mostly a mammalian trait. Mammalian jingoism, I suppose you assume Freezer's birth included a placenta too?

I can't wait until the universe tournament does give Frost a new super mode, though. Like when Dimps spent all that time hyping Turles only for Black Goku, the true evil Goku lookalike, to show up.

Dimps would have to have known ahead of time though. They do Heroes too and they had Black out quickly.

So, Super happened. Not much except a few flashbacks (some actual and some newly-animated) and showing that they're really trying push the idea that Future Trunks has always had blue hair.

Next week has Trunks meeting Gohan and seeing how he ended up. Including Great Saiyaman. It sounds fun. A bit depressing for me, because it seems like this is the episode where they're retiring any notion of Gohan being important to the plot for good. But at least we'll get some interactions that really needed to exist out of it.

The *Legendary* Super Saiyan is motivated by a crying infant! He is a literal giant f***ing baby!

Oh man. Trunks is gonna see a lot of crazy stuff. Gohan married (and with a daughter) and to Mr. Satan of all people. I wonder if they'll take the time to show him everything that's happened since he left. That would include Krillin marrying 18 and having a daughter, Goku having a second son (the best friend he never had) and as of recently (for him) Buu, the creature he worked to stop living with them peacefully.

That's a lot of shit to take in.

The preview shows Trunks looking at the collective of Great Sayiaman Gohan, Videl, and Mr. Satan with a hilarious look of bewilderment on his face.

Well yeah.

Compared to how Future Gohan turned out, anything is an improvement.
