Are The Angels Plotting Something?
Not to say that they're evil or anything sinister, but do you suppose that the angels are implementing some unseen plan that is going unnoticed by both Zeno, their guards, and the majority of inhabitants throughout the universes?
A few clues include: Daishinkan emanating some sort of light to the backs of the twin Zeno in DBS's current intro, Mojito smiling upon the erasure of U9 despite him seemingly having cared for his appointed universe, Cus feeling regret over Rumsshi in a manner as if she was sacrificing him, and some of the angels being cryptic in general.
Is there something that only the angels seem to know?

Mojito seemed more annoyed with his universe than anything else, hating the indecisiveness of Sidra and Rou's general attitude, so between those two and how the universe in general "was", his smile seemed to be more one of relief that he didn't have to work with them anymore than anything that one could consider "plotting".

Maybe he's happy that a plot is going according to plan and losing his unneeded servitude to U9?Darkprince410 wrote:Mojito seemed more annoyed with his universe than anything else, hating the indecisiveness of Sidra and Rou's general attitude, so between those two and how the universe in general "was", his smile seemed to be more one of relief that he didn't have to work with them anymore than anything that one could consider "plotting".

Calling a theory "stupid" isn't a critique, there is minor, subtle evidence to back the theory given but dismissing it as not being "logical" because its not brazenly obvious is hardly an argument.

There’s nothing that suggests they are plotting something.theherodjl wrote:Okay, and?Meshack wrote:Because one is stupid (the Guide Angels plotting) and one is logical (Mohito not liking Sidra and Roh)theherodjl wrote:

You're not putting forth a strong argument, you're denying that the theory has credence without explaining why.
I have brought forth various points to suggest that there may be something to the angel's actions that would play out in future events, please tell me why these points are invalid without just saying "nope, sorry, I don't agree, you're wrong".

Discussion over, I guess.

Re: Are The Angels Plotting Something?
There wasn't really a discussion to begin with, can you provide a rebuttal for why the angels are not planning events?Meshack wrote:Discussion over, I guess.
Is Daikaishin not performing some sort of strange action in the intro? Is Mojito not in on the head angel's actions in addition to disliking Roh & Sidra? What about Cus? Are the strange statements & behaviors of the angels just them acting otherworldly or do they have something else in mind?
Tell me how this is not evidence?

Re: Are The Angels Plotting Something?
I don't think *all* of the Angels are plotting against Zeno, but I definitely think *Daishinkan* is... Frankly, I'll be surprised if he doesn't turn out to be the proverbial 'big bad' when this event wraps up. /shrug

The Angels? No. The Grand Priest? Definitely maybe.
Mojito's reaction seemed to be one of relief. U9 was acknowledged as being a shit / ghetto universe, Sidra as not terribly competent, and Rou was an asshole.
Cus seemed saddened by the demise of U10. We know Gowasu was a nice old guy, from the previous arc.
Anyways, it's a far more interesting story if the Grand Priest is a villain, but the Angels aren't necessarily with him. More drama, choosing of sides, maybe some sweet Angel vs. Angel battles, etc.
For example, what would Whis do? He's certainly aloof, but seems to have some affection for Beerus and the Z-fighters. What about Vados? She seems to look down on Champa. She could go either way. What about Marcarita? If Jiren is stronger than Vermouth (confirmed in the manga), we could see a battle between those two.

Re: Are The Angels Plotting Something?
I kinda hope there's a subplot of the angels going rogue. Especially how the U9 gave no fucks for his universe being wiped. The angels would certainly make for a challenge to Goku's Ultra Instinct after all.
