All puns are bad though...so none of them are groan worthy.

Trust me, there are some horrible puns; I speak from...seven years of experience.

Like literally every character in this series is a food pun.

I suppose that does add some credibility to the argument that Goku is a bad person.

I mean I made a pretty horrible pun with Fem-Broly recently.

I called her Sis-ly cause Bro-ly, get it? tongue

[up] Some aren't as obvious as others though.

For example, I'm calling the fighters representing Universe 11 as the Perfectly Sane Clown Posse. XD

Perfectly Sane Clown Posse

I'd love it if the Clown Prince of Destruction turned out to be the Only Sane Man among the various gods and fighters in the multiverse.

There not all food puns but most of them are. And the ones that aren't food puns are some other kind of pun. Well, pun might not be the right word for it, more like Theme Naming.

So, a few pages ago... Trying to math something that doesn't even have a standard unit, really? Seriously, fucking empty numbers, and fucking equations being taken out of nowhere and treated as if they worked.

Krillin stronger than Tien? Okay, you have Yamcha's word. That's all. No extrapolating stuff from training gains, no extrapolating stuff out of Guru's boost. Or do you really think Toriyama had in mind how Krillin compared to the Ginyu force in the middle of the Freeza fight? Do you really take Toriyama for a numbers person?

That approach is just pedantry. All you need to say in case of debate is "nah, Krillin is probably stronger, the characters have said he is the strongest human". Because that's all the depth it really has.

And it is really annoying to see people using the "you cannot possibly be right because numbers" card on something that doesn't merit that.

The Chichi egg thing, I just found it hilarious. I mean, I dislike Chichi, but I'd have found it just as hilarious if it had happened to anybody else in the cast.

I'm saying hilarious, not laughable. It's commendable in how it's silly and chilling at once, and it fits so well. Dragon Ball rarely finds the correct balance between goofiness and seriousness after Z starts, but that, along the fighting candy scene, always did it for me.

Fuck Toei's filler and it's complete lack of continuity and understanding.

Eh, like it or not, losing strength from lack of training has been a pretty well established thing in Dragon Ball Super.

So does Vegeta's new kid have the Saiyan desire for combat?

If your desire to maim and kill hasn't started at the prenatal stage when you're a Saiyan you're practically destined to spend your life in the kitchen.

That is why pregnant Saiyans are encouraged to drink the blood of their enemies.

[up]That......actually would make a horrifying amount of sense for full blooded Saiyans. Might the reason for Goku's birth mother being such a nice person.

I'm wondering what Saiyan puberty is like now. Do they get a greater urge to destroy things to cope with their teen angst?
