There's a difference between internal logic and logic logic.

Why would King Kai tell future Trunks where New Namek is...?

[up] Dragon Balls.

He could revive the Supreme Kai or even fix a lot of shit that happened to his timeline.

The Namek Dragonballs can't revive anyone who's been dead longer than a year. The Earth Dragonballs can revive an individual who's been dead longer than a year, though not groups. The sad fact is that by the time they've built the spaceship and located New Namek, it'd been more than a year and there's no way they can bring Piccolo/Kami or any of their friends back

Of course, this might not have stopped Zamasu, but that's neither here nor there.

According to the wiki, as long as you didn't die of natural causes, you're able to be revived by Porunga.

So Freeza is still looking to gain immortality according to the leaked synopsys right? So, do you think he might get his wish? Or be unceremoniously Vegeta'd by Broly?

Supposedly Golden Freeza is going to fight Broly at some point, so that's probably when he bites it.

There seems to be a weird thing about not using the Buu Arc era characters in Super. Buu is always asleep, Trunks and Goten get to do nothing, Videl is pretty much just a housewife, and Uub can't show up until End of Z.

Well to be fair, Videl wouldn't be able to do much even if they were willing to use Buu characters, what with being only human.

But yeah, if Toriyama flat out has issues with the Buu Saga, he's not really hiding it.

Then again, that's the part where he completely back-pedalled on trying to phase out Goku, so maybe that's why he's so reluctant to field them in any way. He might even view it as a Dork Age since he went so crazy during that time.

Frieza going back to his original motivation and using Broly to fight Goku and Co. by proxy is interesting. It's good to see he finally learned caution.

Goku gave his word, and Freeza mostly kept his end of the deal. Sorta helped save their bacon.

Yeah, I guess since he helped save so many lives, it's cool if he just goes off to murder a few millions again. I mean, the math is still in his favor.

Does 18 count as a Buu saga supporting character and in the same ballpark as those characters mentioned above? Because Dende tends to be considered a Cell saga supporting char even though he was introduced on Namek.

At least she took part in the TOP

18 is a Cell Arc character because that's when she's introduced.

Also, there's a very good reason that Frieza was brought back. It's that Whis doesn't give a shit. tongue

I mean, a deal is a deal.

Going back on it is what Freeza would do.

Also, they'd already had enough on their plate after that day. Longest 48 minutes ever. They could let Freeza have, I dunno, a few weeks or months as a head start.

At the very least, Freeza isn't Buu. He's as likely to rule and subjugate as he is to slaughter, and he can theoretically be reasoned with.

Hey, wait, is King Kai still dead?

Because if he is, it's really messed up that the end of Super revealed that Goku has a teacher that can bring people back to life at will.

They originally talked about how Freeza can't really be a direct antagonist to Goku and Vegeta now and made it sound like he'd have to be more subtle, like manipulating them into fighting Broly to hopefully kill each other.

But if he's just straight up stealing Earth's Dragon Balls from Bulma and siccing Broly on Goku/Vegeta after they chase down the balls, that's incredibly direct and it will make it stupid if Goku and Vegeta let him go after this.

[up][up]I mean, I don't even care, that's just funny.

Whis went to King Kai's planet even.

The fact that he didnt even offer.

The sheer disrespect.

The deal was to give him another life. It didn't say anything about Vegeta not being allowed to immediately blast him away afterwards. Which, now that I think about it, would have been a hilarious ending.

I mean, kinda, but like. After Freeza just helped save the day it'd feel kinda. Off.

It's what Freeza would do, but that's also why I can't quite root for our heroes doing it.

I swear someone better kill Frieza again.

There's no sense in letting him live.

Hopefully Vegeta actually lands the killing blow to Freeza in the future
