I can't believe we came all the way out here and spent a week in the space boonies for nothing. Seriously, I'm surprised we didn't hear banjos on the way in, because everyone's inbred and LOOKS THE FUCKING SAME!

And that's why I go with Kami also being his name by coincidence, being a pun on Calimari. It's not like they're Mario Mario and Luigi Mario.

Also, they're not inbred, they all just have the same father. tongue

That's right. It's impossible to be inbred when you're a monogender species that reproduces asexually and individually.

The Namekians are a really hard species to push to extinction, because they only need one living member to repopulate.

Any sickness that affects one will affect them all, though. So large die offs should be quite possible.

Joke's on him though, Dende is still alive at the end of Revival of F and not him.

That's right.

The white mage.

Yeah, after Popo the almighty revived him all the way from another planet.

Frieza fucked with the White Mage, and it's only due to him getting a lucky revival that he was reborn.

Oh, by the way, that planet that Popo lived on? The same one Dende pointed Frieza at out of spite for one person.

Maybe the White Mage needs to be more careful.

The White Mage's Rez has lasted longer than Frieza's, though.

Once again, thanks to Popo.

If he hadn't tossed Dende off the tower, he'd have died when Buu got out.

The White mage may heal everyone, but he can't heal himself (when he's dead).

If he hadn't tossed Dende off the tower, Dende's resurrection still would have lasted over ten years, compared to Frieza's four months.

It took years for me to finally Google what "po-po" was for.

Police in manga/anime rarely seem to die, yet, cops are usually Stuffed In A Fridge in Western comic books. Huh. The only anime I can think of off the top of my head that had a cop die was Death Note. I don't even know that many anime/manga that show cops in any significant capacity. Battle of Gods had that one traffic cop, and there was that one cop with mustache back in Dragonball. Law enforcement (Ghost In The Shell withstanding, perhaps) rarely gets to do anything in anime.

That said, with Dragonball, the military couldn't do anything about Piccolo or Buu, so god help any officers who...

...oh right, Gingertown.

Japan has a thing where they see fucking with authority as being very, very bad, while in the USA, they've made a culture about fucking with authority.

Anyway, here's an interesting thing:

Dende pointed Freeza to Earth, yes, but that's also where Mr. Popo lives. Put simply, Freeza had 0% chances of success regardless of circumstances. All Dende did was give Mr. Popo another bitch to torture.

That's no excuse.

This is Popo we're talking about.

Even Spaceships are afraid of him.

Spoilers.

Looking at the Korean scans of Super chapter 4,looks like Kibito Kai randomly unfused suddenly.

Also,punch shockwaves are faster than Whis.

According to Toriyama, Popo isn't a pun, he just liked how it sounded. Of course, this is Toriyama, so it's entirely possible he's misremembering.

Well he is Akira Toriyama, so it's likely it was a pun on poop.
