Patented?!

Do not obey in advance.

Specifically he patented the mechanism that makes the stars always appear facing towards you no matter what angle you look at the balls from.

The idea that someone has apparently patented Dragon Balls will never not be funny. [lol]

Well, not so much the Dragon Balls themselves, but the technology for making the star marks on the Super Dragon Balls look the same from every angle (or so I've read).

What Moth said. [nja]

Meanwhile, it's planet-busting time!

R.I.P. Earth (And that's not even a spoiler, given the title.)

But Supreme Kai has been terrified throughout the entire saga! Be more specific, Narrator!

So how come the other universes only have 1 Supreme Kai, rather than one for each direction?

Incredibly rare instance of female fighter in Dragonball whoops she's dead.

It's really weird how Super retconned this entire backstory by saying there's only ever one Supreme Kai at a time.

They also retconned Buu being an artificial creation.

This is some major Mood Whiplash. [lol]

@ LSBK: I think we just have to accept the fact that Super is like an assembly line when it comes to retconning Z.

@ Enlong: Far as I know, he's just a regular ol' Supreme Kai.

Clearly it's because Toriyama forgot all about those other Kais.

And of course Goku makes the mistake of thinking he can save everybody and winds up getting his sons killed.

Okay, the meme here was really stupid. Like, people make a big thing of Goku not saving the kids and Piccolo but in actuality he literally had no time to reach them.

I don't blame Vegeta for being upset. Dude just lost his son.
