Nah, being appropriately fearful of Cell and Majin Buu is not cowardly, it's just being human - it's only logical that he be scared of a being that swatted him aside like he were nothing more than a fly, and the being that can destroy entire cities on a whim.

Not to mention all those freakish powers that Cell has, Cell is a monster but then again the heroes are way up there as well.

He is a coward for not coming forward and giving the people who actually did the work credit, to the point of bribing people so he can keep his image.

King Furry almost recogniced Goku as the kid who stopped Piccolo Sr., but the hair and eye color threw him away.

Shame he didn't pay attention to Tenshinhan, who was also there, and didn't really change, unlike Goku. Or to Piccolo, who looked the same as in the Budokai where the arena got blown up.

Seriously, history would had been different if they had picked the right announcer for the Cell games. Blondy Mc Sunglasses was awesome.

King Furry does actually notice Piccolo, and wonders if he's Daimao.

I actually do expect the manga to play out every major plot point left in the remaining Zamasu fights. Mafuba fails for some reason, Black Goku and Future Zamasu fuse, Goku and Vegeta fuse but fail, Future Trunks saves the day with Hikari and Ikari, Wallpaper Zamasu rises, Zeno Button.

Well, we're kind of past the point where Trunks would have gotten Hikari. He was supposed to get it after Goku and Vegeta fled.

I'm mocking him. "Hikari" being his little Spirit Bomb Sword. "Ikari" the fury of the 20 people on Earth that somehow created "Hikari".

My only problem with the Vegetto (....how do you spell that again?) incident is the time being shorter due to going Super Saiyan really.

I would have been ok with the time limit if not a Kaioushin (though that in and of itself has its flaws), but including the second part just made it just like Dance Fusion, which is dumb.

Now, that doesn't mean they couldn't have just said that Buu's insides broke the fusion (which is what I always assumed, as it made the most sense, but I didn't know that it was never stated), and revealed the time limit thing as well.

The biggest problems with it is that how it was revealed seems like something that was just made up, and that Old Kai never mentioned it. It could turn out to be one of the few things he never learned about before his sealing, but I suppose it's never gonna be clarified.

I'm really curious about how the Super Manga will do things: seeing the differences between it and the anime will clarify a lot of things.

Satan, at least at the beginning is totally a coward. That he gets better doesn't mean it wasn't ever true.

The point about being appropriate fearful of Cell would hold weight if he didn't constantly lie about it with stupid excuses and then take all the credit instead of just owning up to his fear.

Me, I'm just disappointed because the Budokai 3 game made it so that dance fusions were temporary but could be attempted multiple times, while Potara fusions lasted forever but if you failed the fusion, you couldn't try again for the rest of battle. Now, no other video game can ever do something like that.

Actually, that never made much sense at all, especially since Gotenks stayed fused inside Buu until their time limit ran out.

Plus the Potara Fusions already worked differently for Kais even back then. Kibito Kai was just Shen, but bigger and Old Kai is the dominant one in his fusion too.

Shit. That's a good point.

Right. Now I don't even care. They can do what they want. It's done with anyway.

That could be explained by Dance Fusion being different than potara.

I always thought the Dance used the fighters Ki to fuse, hence needing the partners to be equals in power. The Potara are clearly magic by comparison, so with Buu being some magic horror I assumed his insides were affecting the Potara's magic.

  • Potara are said to last forever.
  • Vegetto splits with no explanation given.
  • People try to come up with explanations.
  • An explanation is given.
  • People try to justify the stuff they came up with anyway.

Sure there is aversion to change here. Even if the series started to change in fucking 2008.
