Generic heart virus...overrides the effect of a senzu.

I had a cool theory today:

The God of destruction of Universe 10 is dead, and it was Zamasu plan to kill him by changing his body wih Goku

We discovered that the life of a God of destruction is tied with the Kais, and that Zamasu took over Goku body. Why, of all things, take Goku body? I mean, Zamasu pretty much despises the man and killed him? Simple: He wanted to kill the god of destruction of his universe without risking his own existence.

Think about it: by killing Gowasu, the rest of his universe kais, and his original body. he managed to kill the God of destruction of that universe, leaving nothing to stop him to kill all the mortals in his universe.

Called it! Black/Zamasu especially wants mortals dead due to Trunks' time travel.

Let's see how well Trunks does with this new power up. We already know he won't win, but let's see how long he lasts.

Rob,

Dende's first apperance in the Boo arc (when Gohan goes to invite Piccolo to the tournament) has Dende noticeably larger and in new clothes. It's just that when he re-appears after Vegeta's death, he's back to his original size and attire.

So Toriyama did originally age him but then either goofed or intentionally went back to how he drew him. He did let him age to adulthood for the epilogue, though all you see is his head.

[up][up][up] They specifically say the senzu can't combat viruses.

And yeah, nothing about the virus being from Yardrat or Goku being patient zero. Trunks just says it's a heart virus that won't have a cure developed until some point in the future.

[up][up]

It's very interesting.

I just....I mean....I suppose it's the whole point. He's fought robots and demons and Galactic Conquerors and later on Gods, and beaten (or at least impressed) them all.....

And it's a fucking heart attack that kills him. It's so...pedestrian. And I at least assumed it was some kind of radical alien virus, but even that isn't clear.

So the only thing on Earth that can kill a Super Saiyan (if it is indeed from Earth) is a plain ass heart attack?

It's almost funny really.

And now that you bring it up Saiga, I do remember that Dende seemed taller at the start of Buu. Twenty buck says I'm not the only one who'll notice it either.cool

Did... Trunks go Legendary Semi-Blue? His hair isn't SSJ3, but it is spikier and his aura is very god-like. Plus the lack of irises... Is this the rage of a Half-Saiyan at full potential?

Also, Black killed his timeline's Goku (in his old body), Chi-Chi and Goten... but he doesn't mention Gohan. Hmm...

[up] Gohan lives with his own family now. He wouldn't have been there at the time.

Don't get me wrong, it most likely is a False SSJB, but why are his irises gone?

about as canon as everything in Super. Which is 'basically not because it might be a Toei-only thing'. The lack of irises is probably just a way to make it stand out.

Trunks' transformation has me squarely in camp "who even gives a fuck anymore". They'll either explain it, or they won't, and that will be that.

Didn't they have Vegeta lose his irises in the Beerus arc? It might be a stylistic thing for now.

[up] Yeah, I think so. Maybe they're trying to call back to that. Or call back to his Grade 3 whatever it's called form against Cell, which was Broly before Broly was Broly.

Maybe it's the same as his Super Saiyan 2 form from the manga, which is stronger than Super Saiyan 3 for some reason.

HOLY SHIT GUYS, TODAY EPISODE WAS INTENSE!

Also: ZAMASU, YOU COMPLETE SON OF A WHORE! FUCK YOU TO HELL!

Seriously, i'm loving both characters. Also, for a minute, both characters started to talk at the same time. Fusion confirmed?

So what was revealed this episode:

  • Zamasu as Black comes from a timeline where Goten actually was born, apparently, and it's a timeline where it's almost 100% similar to the one we met Present Zamasu is in, in where he lost to Goku in a sparring match.

  • The first thing Zamasu as Goku does? After murdering Goku, he murders Chichi and Goten. Ouch.

  • Much like in the manga, Black's been on a killing spree of Gods, and like the manga, it looks like he's chosen Trunks' timeline because there's no inconvenient God of Destruction he has to worry about.

  • Also both Black and Zamasu more or less lay it on Trunks' shoulders that, if not for his time travel shenanigans, they wouldn't have even been able to DO their Zero Mortals plan.

  • Finally we get Trunks' explosion at the end. Rather than a midway between regular Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan God/Blue, could this be Trunks' version of Ultimate Gohan instead?

Zamasu, you just pushed the "I murdered your wife and child while wearing your face." button. That tends to piss the hero off no matter how you spin it, ya turd blossom.

Goku was a BAMF this episode. His Berserk Button hasn't been pushed like that since the Frieza days.

[tup] Also that Instant Transmission backfist. Good job Super.
