The problem with the Spirt Sword is that it was cringe JRPG shit.

Dragon Ball is manly for that wimpy shit.

Like, in what way? Goku's been doing the whole "everyone in the planet, share your power with me!" thing for like 7 movies, not to mention the first fight with Freeza and Kid Buu. And Trunks has been doing cool sword shit literally since he was introduced.

[up][up][up][up] Too much mortal talk though.

And Toriyama says Goku isn't a good person. tongue

[up] Too much talking really. It was like an episode of Fairy Tail.

Dragon Ball is practically swimming in JRPG tropes and always has. That was just a different type.

Oh and for future reference, literally everything between the Kid Buu aftermath on the lookout and the time skip is filler.

Ya know what let's just say it feels too much like modern shonen like Fairy Tail.

Cause yeah it kinda felt like that.

@ Orion: Probably true, but I'm not one for Tempting Fate. tongue

@ Enlong: Eh, it's more like slim's personal viewpoint. Can't say I follow the logic when Vegeto and Black/Zamasu are already swinging around energy blades of some kind, and all Trunks—the swordfighter—is doing is coating his broken sword with ki (never mind the scene is exactly like what we just went through in Z/Kai with the Spirit Bomb against Buu), but hey.

Trunks was truly the villain after all. And thus, Zamasu was right all along. [lol]

Zamasu's defeat is no worse an asspull than say how Kars was defeat in Jo Jo Part 2 or how Dio and The Chimera Ant King will be..

Ya know that shot of Vegeta giving Fatso the sandwhich was sweet. waii

[up] Oh bullshit.

What a load of absolute nonsense, the spirt sword is an objectively worse thing than the latter stuff which is some truly cool shit.

Shame on you for actually saying that. [tdown]

Minor side thing to something earlier, but the Closed Captions used "Vegetto" rather than "Vegito" for some reason.

DIO's defeat is way more of an Ass Pull in my opinion. At least Trunks learning the Spirit Bomb spontaneously doesn't completely go against the rules established by the series up to that point and after.
