I know this are earthling weakling criminals but this DOES look quite cool.

This forum is so over-dramatic that it's not even funny.

Nothing has really changed. Xeno Pan does nothing and they still didn't give her a super saiyan.

"Her Saiyan blood is too diluted."

[Looks to her grandson, who goes Super Saiyan as a child.]

Mmmmmmmmhm. I hope we get a time skip at some point so we can see Super's version of Pan proper. At least we have Caulifla and Kale now as official female Super Saiyans, but Pan should have been the first.

I was wondering why no one was paying any attention to my link.

It shows Pan being UTTERLY BADASS against earth criminals. I know that is lame compared to the Super Saiyans but its much better than the deal she got later on.

So something Chi Chi or Videl could pull off?

It's very frustrating how almost every female fighter in the original series either didn't get involved on the main conflict at all (Number 18) or was retired from Martial Arts before that (Chichi and Videl). And while I don't think a character NEEDS to be strong or "cool" to be fun (I mean, just look at Blooma) having more girls who can kick butt is always cool
she/they.
