I could see this whole arc having a Hope Spot at the end where they summon Zarama and ask for the rest of the universes back, only for a Downer Ending when Zarama says that it's beyond his power.

Considering how the Future Trunks Arc ended, I wouldn't pass this arc ending on a similar note or even a flown blown downer ending.

I mean Future Trunks ended pretty depressingly & only just barely qualifies as a bittersweet ending. Future Trunks should have just pulled a Rachel Summers & made the present time his new permanent home.

Hasn't it been said multiple time last that the Super Dragon balls allow any wish to be made? I feel like it wouldn't constantly be brought up when they are if it weren't true. I mean even gods try to use them.

Ganesha is just a nickname homies. Until we know his name, i'll still call him Ganesha.

The mouse however, I will name him "Destructo Gonzales" just for the sake of a joke :P

Wasn't "capable of granting any wish" also said of Earth's Dragonballs way back at the beginning?

This was stated by gods to be true, also this is the god of dragons too so it seems more believable.

[up]Zalama: Tell me mortal, what is thine wish?
Goku: I wish for all the universe destroyed in the tournament to be restored to as they were before the tournament.

Zalama:..............frakin' sonuvabitch Zen'o, this is the second time this happened! First it was those six, and now THIS?

Both Zen'o: Sorry papa.
Zalama: I shall grant your wish mortal, but only because it is you that's asking for it!

I would find it more amusing if he asked destroyed universes to return so he would accidentally in progress bring back all 16 [lol]

[up][up]Implication is that Zalama would have refused if it were Zen'o that asked for the wish instead of a mortal.

Zen'o's dad being the dragon sounds silly enough for it to be canon for Dragon Ball.

I'm impressed by the Bang Zoom voice cast for Super in the sense that I see a lot of big names like Lex Lang and Michelle Ruff.

Do they imitate the Funimation cast or do their own thing?

Well, that would certainly make King Kai guilty.

So, re-watching the original Fortune Smeller TELLER Baba arc.

So, Goku never learned to say her name right did he?evil grin

Also, seeing how this one originally went down, Yamcha always draws the shortest of short straws in Tournament fights.

I guess that's why his death in the Saiyan Saga is the proverbial Wafer Thin Mint that cemented his status as a Memetic Loser.

Word of God states he could have legitimately won if he hadn't dropped his guard, and at that point, fans just accepted (and gleefully embraced) that he was the joke character who'd always fail.

Still it's shitty luck to be the dude who draws the Invisible Man. I wonder how Goku would have faired at that point in the series.

Eh, it's fine to make fun of that, I just wish people would get the facts right. No, the Saibaman was not as strong as Raditz, and no, it didn't "one-shot" him. But who really cares at this point?

I thought that Nappa said that the Saibamen were roughly as strong as Raditz?

Yes, but they're not quite as strong as Radditz. I think it was 1200 to 1500, with Radditz having a slight advantage.

I like how virtually no one has really focused on the morality or lack of it shown in regards to 11 universes worth of beings being wiped out from existence.

Its not like he told Zenos to start blowing up worlds but he should be given some grief for not listening to Beerus that as nice as he seemed Zenos is a dangerous figure.

He fucked up but its not like he is solely responsible for the problems now.

Tell that to every fan in existence.

Me included.

I mean, yeah Zen-O chose to add such a stipulation, but who are the other fighters going to be able to do anything against...the unstoppable god who can erase entire universes with little more then a thought...

Or the completely mortal asshole who gave him the idea in the first place?

I know who I'd be looking to take a few chunks out of.

Kakarrot is not very chunky, so that wouldn't be too tough.
