Yeah, destroying planets is what Beerus is supposed to do, you can't really call him evil or a villain for that. I don't remember was it ever actually explained why there needs to be a good of destruction to destroy planets? Was there a concrete explanation or just some vague thing about balance and old planets needing to die for new planets to bloom that really wouldn't make sense?

Old planets needing to die for new planets to be born, yeah.

It was stated that the saiyans were actually growing too strong, not enough to make Frieza worried but he felt that they could destroy parts of his empire in Oozaru forms.

He executed them to spare the headache that'll come with the giant monkeys attacks, also because he was a racist and because super saiyan.

The cycle of death and rebirth is a very common thing everywhere. Using it as an excuse is perfectly acceptable. I alos counter with Punch-Clock Villain.

Also, if you can distract your villain and keep him form doing villainous things with delicious food then I think he fails as a villain.

I just never got the villain vibe from Beerus.

I just came into some money(100 bucks), enough that I can buy Xenoverse. How does it perform on the Play Station 3?

[up][up]That would work better for me if he actually targeted old and dying planets or at least put any thought into it at all. The way it was just seemed really arbitrary. Maybe that's just the character and not the position exactly, but still.

[up]Never tried on PS 3

[up][up]To be fair, Beerus was the guy who could give a beating to all the Z fighters and defeat the Super Saiyan God with 70% of his full power, if he really was a villain, it would be hard to find a way to really stop him.

[up][up] We don't know how he normally works. All we know is that he woke up early because he wanted to fight a Super Saiyan God and all of the Saiyans were on Earth. After that, his thought process seemed to be "Well, might as well destroy it while I'm there before going back to sleep." And if Buu hadn't hogged all the pudding then he probably wouldn't have destroyed it even without fighting God Goku.

Anyone know a good outfit for Miss Buu? I'm thinking Popo's torso piece but I have no idea what else to use. If I can't find anything to use i'll just make Erasa. Or maybe remake Cooler. Had King Kai for a while but I just don't like how male Majins fight.

Could be Beerus destroys shit because he's, ya know, the God of Destruction. It could be like a job requirement to destroy some planets every once in a while.

[up][up]His ordering planet Vegeta destroyed because he thought King Vegeta was rude, or considering destroying the Earth because Buu wouldn't share pudding, or in this movie apparently accidentally destroying a planet by sneezing does not give me a reason to believe he selects the planets he destroys based on anything more than a whim.

Beerus actually does act like a cat. Go figure.

Of course, the problem is that cats are dicks.

You know, sometimes I think that the characters really do forget that they can fly and that it's their fastest mode of transportation (short of Goku's Instant Transmission).

Also, there was absolutely no tension when Namek was blowing up with Goku on it. We've already learned that the Namekian Dragon Balls don't have a limit on the number of times a person can be brought back to life so the worse case scenario was that they have one more person to wish back.

I wonder why Goku never tough anyone else Instant Transmission.

Same reason he didn't teach anyone the Kaioken.

I also know quite a bit about Dragonball. I am just a massive fanboy since DBZ is my favorite work of fiction ever, so you'll never see me make TL;D Rs pointing out flaws in the plot.

I wouldn't mind seeing a movie with Towa and Mira as the villains. Maybe have Demigra cameo near the end to hint at a sequel. It also needs Time Breaker Bardock just 'cause. Maybe make it a loose adaption of the Xenoverse story, only replace the Future Warrior with the Z fighters. And I mean all the Z fighters. Is 18 considered one of them? If not, add her in too. The bad thing is i'm 90% sure if this happened, Goku would just do everything. Maybe Vegeta would get to throw some punches, but everyone else would just be there for the sake of being there.

Maybe S Ko T and F. Trunks could do something.

There is a "official" FW tho, which is the red haired saiyan of the trailers. If they want to make a DB Xenoverse movie, they could probably have even bigger time changes.

As if, Dark Vegito.

Is 18 considered one of them?

If you want her to be, she is. There's no official roster of the Z Warriors because there's not actually such a thing as "the Z Warriors"; it's just a name the English dub invented when the show started at Raditz's arrival, to create the impression that the protagonists were a ragtag team of heroes rather than having to explain to the audience who these characters are.

I actually forgot about him. So yeah, they could use that guy. Does he have an official name or no? I'ma call him Barry.

Dark Vegito = Everyone's fucked.

Speaking of What if's, wasn't it said there'd be 'What if?' scenarios in Xenoverse or is that what the P Qs are considered? I heard there's be things like 'What if Goku joined up with Raditz?'

[up] So that's not an official name? Good, the name never made sense. At least to me it didn't

Extreme Butoden trailer:

Over 20 characters, in-game transformations, and tons of assists including Bubbles and Baby Goku.

Dark Vegetto is an Instant Game Over, Demigra Wins.

So of course it can't happen for the same reason why Vegetto can't possibly remain fused.

I don't like acknowledging Vegito. It makes more sense when you realise it was supposed to be Gogeta. It makes the characters look better, and it leads to less plot holes - they defused in Buu's body because their time ran out, not because Buu's body is just...weird.

[up][up] Eh, it's not really a Game Over situation, considering your player character becomes strong enough to combat Demigra and fight a bit with Beerus at at least 50%.
