Future Pilaf and Shu are obviously dead now, but it wouldn't have hurt to know what happened to them. Androids, maybe? Natural causes? Black? Who knows.

They survived the androids and Black, but then Zenou happened.

To be fair Future Mai is so different from present Mai that you could give her a different name and she would be a completely different character.

You know what I want in episode 69? I want Whis to be in it, and for him to recognize both Gatchan as infant Angels.
I'm pretty sure Whis isn't the same kind of angel the Gatchan are in the same sense Kami wasn't the same kind of god Kaio was, and while a planetary Kami might recognize a lord of worlds, Dende didn't seem to know who Beerus was.

Still, between the Gatchan and Whis that's at least three different types of angel in Dragon World, because Freezer said he was sung to by angels in hell.

You know, I kind of miss the non serial movies Dragon Ball used to have now. They really dropped in quality after "World's Strongest" but they were picking back up after Fusion Reborn, I even liked the GT "Hero's Legacy movie and I could really go for an Angels And Androids'' buddy flick where 17 and 18 are forced to hang out with Whis and Vados.

I'm more hyped for Arale's return than I was for Vegito's return a couple of weeks ago. Is there something wrong with me?

The way Krillin, #18 and Marron's incredibly happy family keeps featuring in these slice of life plots makes me wary. I keep thinking something nasty is going to happen to them eventually.

Don't worry about it. We know they are still happily together by the time of the epilogue.

And (while I hate this little tidbit since it kinda demeans her) Toriyama has apparently stated that 18 is Krillin's reward (wow), so I doubt he'll do anything to wreck that.

And GT already played that card, and still brought him back.

Only Trunks gets screwed over, because that can't contradict anything that happens in the ending.

He got married, has kid(s) and is a park ranger. The two don't see each other much because he's afraid she'll think he's lame now. Or something like that.

I'm really happy for Krillin. He's such a good guy, and he's been kicked around by life for a long time, so it's nice that something good happened to him for a change.

I mean, there's some comedic potential in seeing an episode with Android 17 and his family, but I still feel doubt that Toriyama would do it.

Also, changing topics, why has there been a bunch of Ford commercials with clips of Dragon Ball dubbed over to advertise the Ford Fusion? I was scrolling through my Facebook feed, and I found an ad where Goten and Trunks fuse into a Ford Fusion.

Have you any dreams you'd like to sell?

I've been seeing those, except with Sailor Moon and Usagi gushing over the Ford Fusion's constellation.

I saw that one and another one with Krillin and Gohan trying to wish for a car from Porunga on Namek and Porunga trying to tell them about the Ford Fusion.

Two things I find funny about these ads: Ford, an American company, are the ones using Japanese made cartoons to advertise their cars, and two, my dad hated the Ford Fusion he used to own so much that he swore off all American car brands because they kept giving him trouble.

If you gotta buy a car, buy German. They know what they're doing. Most of the time anyway.

Also, Goten and Trunks fusing into a car is giving me flashbacks of something, but I can't figure out what. Maybe it's FFXIII and the summoned twins that turn into a bike, but I don't think it's that.

Something could still happen in the meantime. I don't think they're going to break up or anything, though. What I'm more saying is that with the way the series keeps showing how happy and heartwarming their lives are, with a much more stable existence than any of the other main characters, we're leading up to something big disrupting that happiness and stability.

Especially since none of the main characters have had a sustained emotional punch happen to them yet (everything horrible in the last arc happened to Future Trunks, lol, and all the casualties of Freeza were undone quickly and extremely brief). I've had the feeling for a while that they're going to get caught in the crossfire of a crisis eventually - Krillin-style.

Honestly, it feels like Krillin and 18 being happy together IS the joke. They're Krillin and 18. How could they possibly be happy together? But they are.

Well, Vegeta and Bulma are somehow still together and they're both awful people.

What are you talking about? Bulma bought Roshi a car full of whores. That's the nicest thing anyone can do for a guy.

Eh. They understood what they were getting into.

I mean, the fact that Bulma has such a thing on speed dial makes me thinks it's Plan A for Roshi.

And again, Roshi gets to climb aboard the Hoooooooooo Train!

Oolong just gets beat up. How come Roshi didn't get punched into next week too?
