How on earth would Chi-Chi join the Ginyu force, let alone be the leader of it?

[up]It's not about the 'how', it's about the 'what', as in, what would be more funny than seeing the entire Ginyu Force sucking up to Chi-Chi and becoming Vegeta levels of whipped? Nothing, that's what. Nothing would be funnier. By the way, Dragon Ball Super for best new Slice-of-Life anime?

Well, first of all, that's not an obvious thing to do at all.

Second of all, that makes little to no sense whatsoever. There's no circumstances ever that would allow that to come to pass.

Goku cheats on Chichi with Princess Snake.

Chichi goes away to train for four months.

Chichi decides she needs an army.

Chichi revives the Ginyus.

Cue Resurrection G's theme song.

~Ginyu! Ginyu! Ginyu! Giiiiiiinyu!~

[up][up]Nah, it's super obvious: Chi-Chi means breast milk, which fits with the Ginyu Force's dairy theme.

DBH God Mission 3 opening! Looks like the events of Super and Online are intertwining in DBH, somehow...

Also, SSJ2 Time Patrol Bardock actually has SSJ2 hair now!

Don't expect the Dragon Ball Heroes openings to make sense. They never do.

Actually, don't expect Dragon Ball Heroes to make sense, in general.

Chi chi also wore an Ultraman helmet as a kid. It makes sense as well for her to take over the ginyu force.

Ginyu is just named after the Japanese word for milk (altered of course) and Guldo is named after curds or "gurds" in the process of making yogurt. Or something like that.

Guldo's original Japanese name is Gurudo, derived from the latter half of yogurudo, the Japaneses word for yogurt.

The Viz manga renames him Gurd to make the pun more apparent.

Chi-Chi Leading the Ginyu Force

No. Just...no.

Xenoverse can't have Chi Chi on the Ginyu Force. It doesn't have a Chi Chi model (just like how Krillin beat Oozaru Vegeta due to Yajirobe's model being absent.)

I have a message from another time...

I'd almost like to see Ginyu Force Chi-Chi, just for the humour of her doing the poses.

But yeah, it wouldn't work. Toriyama has done too good a job of establishing the pecking order not just for humans, but for women as well.

So I saw the second episode of Super yesterday and well, why is Vegeta obsessed with surpassing Goku again?

Just.... ugh.

For the same reason he was obsessed with surpassing Goku again in the Buu Saga.

He's like Raphael from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. He only has one arc, one form of Character Development to undergo, and he just keeps rehashing it over and over.

Well, I mean that I can kind of understand, because the guy he's spent the last several years trying to surpass and eventually defeat just died and isn't coming back.

But this, it's just......

It's like Piccolo trying to Take Over the World again.

The end of the manga he says "You're number 1" but he still resolved to surpass him. Before that, Vegeta was convinced that he was the strongest and that Goku is just a low-class usurper. His development at the end of the Buu saga was not "Goku's better than me, oh well," it was "You're better than me right now."

Sounds about right.

He even says that just because he's accepted that Goku's better doesn't mean he's gonna just slack off and not try and surpass him.

Hell, now that he's accepted Goku is better, he can really move forward with his own training.

Then Goku becomes Super Sayian God. That makes Vegeta very upset and he cries until they let him be one too.

Well, I mean he understands what he's up against, and has a realistic sense of things, as opposed to letting his ego blind him to the fact that Goku is stronger.

Plus, while he's still proud, he won't let that blind him to things, or stop him from taking certain courses of action......

Or if you want to look at it that way
