Exactly that. They need the heroes to struggle before they win, they need some sort of last minute trump card to turn the battle around and Super Saiyan seems perfect for that if you just ignore that's not how the characters behave normally.

And that movie had Spirit Saiyan as the trump anyway.

Huh.

Also, Goku did the same "EEEEEEEEEE" when 13 shot him as when Popo punched him off the lookout.

So there's that.

Yeah, I did point that out. I think that was them showing that Popo can still hurt Goku if he actually wanted to, he just doesn't.

The Z fighters seem to be actively high enough in the Pecking Order that while he doesn't like them, he doesn't actively try to tear them down. The same for Earth itself, really, when he put off having Shenron destroy the place.

It'll be interesting to see him and Dende interact with Piccolo/Nail/Kami.

Remember that, canonically, TFS Popo is future Demon God Dumplin who should be ~ Beerus.

So obviously Popo isn't gonna be killed by Buu. He's already beat the bubblegum out of about 3 varieties of Buu, and that was before he killed Demigra.

How can Popo be Shenron's master when Shenron created Popo?

Not according to Lani and Kirran.

EDIT: I am still looking forward to abridged Vegeta's "WHY WON'T YOU LEAVE ME ALONE" in the main series.

Seriously, Vegeta got wrecked there.

I get the feeling that this is going to be the payoff to the "Goku Button" gag.

I miss Constant Super Saiyan. That was a cool variant on power ups.

Also, I love how that scene progresses.

"So, you think you're stronger than me?"
"Sure."

I love how Vegeta's only response afterwards is to belittle Piccolo to make himself feel better. That's what he's forced to resort to. Like, it's almost as childish as everything else Vegeta does in that scene.

My favorite part of it is [up][up] that.

It's not even fair to say Vegeta got wrecked. Vegeta wrecked himself. He didn't demand Goku prove it or anything; Goku just asserted that he's stronger and Vegeta proceeded to melt down.

My favorite part is the shit-eating grin Goku is sporting. He's doing the verbal equivalent of blocking Vegeta head at arms length while the letter rages impotently and he knows it.

Stupidoomdoodles was harassed off tumblr.

So.

I mean, I could probably find that gif, but.

It'd be a bitch to do.

WHAT!?

No no no no no.....

Man, that was the perfect set-up too.

They've made fools of all of us now.

[up] Phew. Crisis averted.

Lets us remember this, so that we never grow complacent about setting up good jokes....or bad jokes.
