What you're thinking of is "Being a Djinn and looking like a blackface stereotype aren't mutually exclusive", because Mr. Popo is not meant to be a caricature of black people, he just looks like it because Toriyama.

Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!His design looks pretty cool though.
You've got a gutter placed mind.
Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.No, being black face and being a dijinni are most definitely not mutually exclusive.
For instance, in orthodox Islam, Satan is said to be a dijinni, because the(orthodox) religion teaches that it is impossible for angels to fall. In the Sirat Rasul Allah, Iblis(Satan) is described as a black man with long hair.(specially, he was said to look like Nabtal, a black man who had annoyed the prophet)
Inverting a satanic image to the side of the heroes is something Toriyama did with Piccolo and Mr Satan, so I wouldn't be surprised if Popo was deliberate.
Buldogue's lawyerThe anime shows those three resurrected on Earth and that's where the inconsistency is.
Yes, I mean the anime. >.<
Which does make some degree of sense. Cabba didn't have a x50, x100, or x400 multiplier to make him one of the most powerful warriors in the universe. He had to get there in his base form. So you take that strength and then add the x50 multiplier to it and you get, well...one of the most powerful warriors in the universe x50.
In essence, he is to his universe what Ultimate Gohan was to U7, except now he's 50x that. If Ultimate Gohan could go Super Saiyan on top of a power that already surpassed Goku's Super Saiyan 3, he would be over 20,000x Goku's base power at the time. That is an immense jump. If Cabba is even more powerful than Ultimate Gohan was, I can believe his first time as a Super Saiyan giving the Saiyan Gods a run for their money.
Frieza was able to match them by training really hard. No reason Cabba couldn't do the same. Maybe he has better training options than Vegeta's gravity chamber or Goku's Kai-summoned weights.
Why would they be codenames?

Like all the other matches, it seems like Vegeta has been holding back immensely. I feel like he's only transforming because Cabba actually impressed him. You know, to show how farther he has to go.
I was getting a little annoyed at how Goku and Vegeta have been holding back the entire tournament and nothing has realistically challenged them. Then I realised that happened in the 22nd tournament. Goku was stronger than everyone, but didn't show his full power until the fight with Tenshinhan.
It's still annoying, but...at least there's a precedent?

The *Legendary* Super Saiyan is motivated by a crying infant! He is a literal giant f***ing baby!![]()
It's completely in character for Goku: hold back and draw out the fight for the sake of having fun. Especially in a tournament fight where your life (and the lives of your planet's population) isn't on the line.
Vegeta, I would guess, is doing the same thing. As a Saiyan, he would enjoy fighting for its own sake, we just don't see a lot of this with him because of his obsession with defeating Goku. Now that he's up against other opponents with relatively low stakes for the fight, why wouldn't be try to have some fun?

I want that to be a thing at some point.
Just so we can say we've reached the limit of ridiculous gravity training.
Does anyone remember where the Black Hole training theory came from, back when ROF was still being announced?
Someone in another thread credited it to me and I would love to take credit for it but I honestly can't recall.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Well it's not like it'd work anyway; the center of a black hole has infinite gravity, so even quantum particles would be smashed into oblivion. There's literally no possible way for a three dimensional being to survive being in the center of one.
Let's see if you can get past my Beelzemon. Mephiles, WARP SHINKA!Like that's ever stopped anyone in this series.
My Tumblr. Currently side-by-side liveblogging Digimon Adventure, sub vs dub.Sidestepping the questionable percentages here as, to my knowledge, Goku and Vegeta haven't even come remotely close to surpassing Beerus, let alone Whis.
Those limits only exist relative to each other. They've long since passed the point where they can be defined as "planet buster" or "galaxy buster". Super Perfect Cell was a solar system buster. Pure Buu tore a hole between dimensions with an angsty scream. Goku and Beerus nearly shattered the entire universe with shockwaves put off from their blows impacting. And the characters have only gotten stronger from there.
