What do you guys think of the recent episode of Super where Gohan has a heart-to-heart with Trunks? A lot of fans don't really like the idea of Gohan being a scholar and not training to fight.

I'm kind of disappointed, but I wont let Toriyama drink my tears like he probably wants to.

So I'm just at a "meh" state in general.

I like the way Gohan's character has naturally evolved into a scholar. He was never really all that important in the first place, didn't even exist until halfway through the original run, and had a few chapters in the spotlight before fading back into the background like all the other characters.

If anything, Gohan fans were spoiled rotten on his defeating Cell, and now they demand that he be important again, instead of just accepting his place. Yamcha and Puar ended the threat of Oozaru Goku in the very first arc, but you don't see me demanding that Yamcha defeat Black.

I liked this episode a lot. Trunks meets his hero, but is disappointed he isn't a badass anymore, yet comes to realize that a happy life is what they fight for and is happy that Gohan could become the goofy person he is.

Good job, Toei.

But for the love of God, enough with this Mai stuff. It really bothers me that Trunks seems to give more fucks about her than his mother who got killed in front of his eyes.

We'll have to dock some points on that Yamucha + Puar feat...running with scissors, bad lessons.

[up]That's wrong...since he clearly dreams of a good life with both of them alive.

I don't have much to say about Gohan except that I'm not surprised in the least. I will however say that Zamasu being Black is so ungodly obvious that I'm almost certain that he's a red herring.

[up][up][up]Nope. Every episode he's had flashbacks in he stops to say "Mai..." in a pained voice instead of "Mother..."

Only way it makes sense is if he was doing the sex with her or something.

[up][up]Why does that matter? We know nothing already, the only thing of interest is personality and how he deals with job...and whether or not he's stronger than the Whis he has.

[up]They probs were doing the bedroom naughtiness...if he dreamed of them living together.

Toei needs to stop being so Japanese and just come out and say they were lovers. Then it would seem a lot more natural. As is, they just seem like very good friends that can't decide if they should or shouldn't.

That valuing more to Trunks than his relationship with his mother just seems very off to me.

edit: All they have to do to make this way less creepy is say when Crew Pilaf became kids, they lost a lot of their adult memories and gained kid brains and hormones. Then it's WAY less creepy.

I really want to know if all of the gods are close to each other in power. I hope not, I hope that there are stronger gods in the other universes. Would make for some interesting future battles after Black, besides the universal tournament.

They were really playing up Gohan's dorkiness for all it's worth this episode. Trunks looked so uncomfortable. [lol]

#41896: Jul 18th 2016 at 3:23:13 AM

The only thing I didn't like about the Gohan/Trunks stuff was the really flimsy excuse they gave for Gohan not knowing what was going on - he just forgot to ask. Really? Future Trunks comes back for the first time in who knows how long, looking battered, and you don't ask him what happened to him?

I mean, I'm sad it looks like he won't get any more screentime, but this is basically par the course for most characters in this show. I'll have to keep dealing with it, so I will.

[up][up]Didn't bother me. Seems like they were just hanging out. The only thing a bit raggedy was his outfit, which I doubt Gohan noticed because he was so ecstatic to see him again.

So, the DBH site is doing a poll for God Mission 10.

Fans vote who's gonna get new cards in the next update, and the top winners will. I voted for Neko Majin Z, who're y'all gonna vote for?

I really am starting to care less about Gohan; ignoring my personal disappointment with him, he's boring now. There's little reason to actually focus on him from a story telling standpoint.

That said, the latest episode kinda felt like filler, but it was cute at least.

A lazy millennial who's good at what he does.
