I swear, if this keeps up, there's going to be as many alternate Trunkses as there are alternate Dandys..es.

@ Enlong: Having this be how Chronoa inducts Future Trunks (and Future Mai?) into the Time Patrol would've made for a nice Xenoverse hook, but I guess the Super writers didn't think (or want) to make those games canon.

Future Trunks find a new girlfriend........ or just remain a bachelor forever or find a nice guy instead.

Anything is fine with me.

So Whis is plot-devicing up an alternate timeline where this whole arc doesn't happen.

I guess that's OK.

Would've been better if the Spirit Sword had ended this an episode ago, though.

@Alpha: What about El Hermano. He's a chump who lost to Farm With A Shotgun without his shotgun!

Back to Super, motherly Bulma is best Bulma.

So they plan to just introduce themselves the alternate timeline versions of themselves and their friends, and explain everything that happened? Awkward.

And it's so funny that they're trying to spin this as a happy ending.

And then he finally cried at the sight of Gohan. This poor kid. sad

Trunks didn't deserve this, Super!

@ Enlong: That seems to be the common consensus from what I can tell.

@ XMen: Obviously intentional and bears significant meaning. [lol]

@ slim: It's really how this arc ends that's the problem.

A simple fix; no Zamasu Ex Machina. Just have motherly Bulma giving food and seeds to the future survivors as the send off.

And now for nine episodes that don't belong to a major arc.

Including the best episode ever.

Aside from the ending, I loved this arc and its easily Super's best thus far (though that isn't really saying much).

Yeah, this arc was nice. But it had problems. Its ending was like 2 or 3 victories too long.

I ... I don't understand how Trunks killing Zamasu with the sword wouldn't have gotten more or less the same end result, but without the duplicate Trunkses.

They could have ended this arc with the sword thing, and almost everything else could have remained the same. Why overcomplicate it, Toei?

Well, at least we got to see Vegito/Best Boy again.

I think the general idea is okay, but they really rushed through the plot points after the timeline got erased instead of dwelling on the horror of it. Future Trunks bursting into tears at Gohan because he failed to save everyone was a nice moment though.

And I get the feeling you're not going to like the Tournament of Power when that finally gets rolling, Rojixus. tongue

[up][up] Because being Trunks is suffering. A happy Trunks after being put through the ringer again? Can't have that!

Kinda happy to see GT Trunks just enjoying a flying car after all this. The concept of Trunks deserves it.

On the bright side at least Trunks won't be interacting with Mai here.
