If Black was written by the fans, he'd legit have been a version of Goku who never hit his head and became evil. Or, Goodness, Evil Goten.
Goten Black was a good concept though. Black should've been Goten from U6 or from an unseen timeline. ( that grew up in a bad environment)
I disagree.
To me, Black clearly couldn't be anyone else but a God. His refined mannerisms, the way he talked, how he saw himself as a wise individual who "observed the truth of all things" and mortals as useless creatures, his elegance, politeness, etc. He had to be a God. A Saiyan wouldn't act like that, not even one raised and educated by Zamasu.
"Goten Black" is the same as "Gohan Black"; it sounds cool on paper, because both Goten and Gohan are very important to Trunks, but in reality it wouldn't work with the premise of Black's character (as explained above).

I would have loved if Black had been Goten instead. We had already had an evil Goku before with Turles and technically Ginyu Goku. btw, your avatar is my favorite version of Goten thus far.
Not an evil Goku btw. Turles is an evil Goku because he is precisely how Goku would act like if he never hit his head. He'd be a merciless Saiyan conqueror.
Black was not a merciless Saiyan conqueror. He was a righteous God who exterminated humanity, believing it to be justice. Goku, or any Saiyan really, is too stupid to care about justice.

I still maintain that Black being the possessed corpse/body of that timeline's dead Goku was way more interesting and less convoluted than what we got.
Since Future Goku died many years before the FT arc, shouldn't he be a literal skeleton? Or even worse, just ashes, if the Androids somehow blew up his burial place. So how would Zamasu possess him if there was no body left?
