[up][up][up] Does that mean we're going to have an Ultimate Kuririn character in future DB fighting games?

Even team asshole looks good compared to him.

I legitimately love how Frieza considers defecting to Universe 9's team after seemingly taking out Goku. And despite them having the team with the lowest mortal level and no doubt needing all of the help they can get, Rou is just like "Dude, that's fucked up."

As do I. I have to say, right now, Universe 7 really is looking like the evil universe, even more so than 9.

I still blame the writing as opposed to Shin though.

Eh U9 comes across as the rogue universe to me. Like the place filled with thieves & scoundrels.

Like simply having an asshole greedy Kai & morally duplicitous wolf-men isn't that evil really.

I like how the whole thing with the assassins and Freeza have essentially caused Sidra and Rou to switch places. Now Sidra is the one throwing out caution to do nasty and immoral things to win, and Rou is the indecisive one who thinks they may be going too far.

Unrelated, but I'm just waiting for someone important (that is, a protagonist) to get Hakai'd. I'm surprised it's taken this long, honestly.

I mean, Sidra had a point, if Frieza gets out of line he always could just destroy him. Yeah, Frieza contained that energy, but it seemed fairly hard for him, and that was only a piece of what Sidra is capable of.

Reminder that Krillin got that white aure gauntlet power-up back in episode 76.

Pretty sure that's what the "latent power" is referring to, as well as the training he did in episode 84.

Mega Krillin is the best thing. I wonder who was the first Xenoverse player to make him.

So how did Frieza increase his power level so much? Did he make a trip to Namek and convince the Elder to awaken his latent potential, then have Old Kai dance around him for a couple of months, and then drink the Super Divine Water before heading to Earth?

Because that's what I'm going to believe until told otherwise.

He did increase it, he's just gotten a lot better at controlling it. Or that seems to be what they were going for.

He was stronger than Goku even when the latter was Blue during Resurrection F.

Yeah, Freeza didn't get "stronger" per se, he just learned how to better control his energy. Within that cocoon thing he obviously couldn't train physically, but mentally is another matter.

He's just improved his focus and mental discipline. Which is a tad worrying, admittedly, since that was always his biggest weakness.

But Goku's got his Super Saiyan Kaio-ken now though, and possibly that transformation seen in the opening.

Don't worry Goku. While I'm pounding your son, I'll be thinking of you the entire time.

To win, you need to adapt, and to adapt, you need to be able to laugh away all the restraints. Everything holding you back.

Yes. Lets focus on the humour and ignore...the other thing.

I will admit, even as I chuckle at their stuff, I find that the negative opinions and misconceptions that DBZA continue to promote are very...worrisome.

Trying to invoke your fanwank and bulls hitting powers. If Frieza with only 4 months of training with a mook could get that strong then why did Cold tell him not to ever cross paths with Boo or Beerus? Was training like sacrilege to them or something? Why was he scared of SSJ if he could just train and get this strong? That seems like an awfully stupid plot hole

Because both were on a level of power that would have utterly destroyed 100% (Namek Saga) Frieza before, nevermind inclined to train him.

I was under the impression that Freeza never considered how strong training could make him until after he died.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure the canon statement is that Freeza didn't even know training was a thing until Goku showed up.
