Isn't this planet Babari out of nowhere? Or did I miss something? An unexpected turn, where are they going with this? I guess the possibly confused plot Mr.Toriyama mentioned is about to start.

Yeah that makes a lot more sense. I think Goku would have revealed SSGSS and then Trunks realises the gulf in power, then as the preview said Vegeta takes it upon himself to likely train/mentor Trunks and shows he has SSGSS too.

Well Trunks is right, he isn't really needed when he's not even close to their power. Guess he's not allowed to count on those two like everyone else does.

Vegeta: Damn it Trunks! How dare you try to make us solve all the dangerous problems for you. Who do you think you are, Gohan?!
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

This arc seems to be really vast. I can't even begin to understand how this new planet could be involved in the plot. Funny how I thought this arc wouldn't be creative at all because of Future trunks and Goku black.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Feels nice not knowing what the heck's gonna happen. This planet Barbary thing came out of nowhere.

U10 Kaioshins are looking into U10 Kaioshin matters. It doesn't say what universe that planet is from. For all we know, 1000 years in the future these inhabitants became saiyans, or earthlings (banking on Saiyans, it makes sense) and then they traveled the galaxies/universes, and ended up in U7. Hence, Black hunting them down and wreaking havoc on Earth, which harbored the remaining saiyans?

My crack-pot theory is that the Barbarians became Saiyans and somehow traveled to U6 and U7. Black is mad that he missed the intergalactic bus to U6 and U7 so he tries to get vengence.

Sounds similar to my previous post. Great minds think alike, especially when they're both on crack :D

I'm trying to figure it out myself also... Do they co-exist with advanced humans or something in 1k years? Do they both cause so much trouble in that time leading Zamasu to plan from now his "mission"?


Legit confused where we are heading haha

I'm thinking maybe Black somehow gets Babarians as henchmen or something.

I think the most likely thing is that these Barbarians are what everyone not named Goku and Vegeta fight.

Nice idea! From the card it looks like they are fighters.

People really think a new reptilian species can evolve into a monkey race in a matter of 1,000 years huh... Looks like the teachings of biology have failed us.
Dragon Ball /Z/GT/Super is a children's show and there's nothing wrong with that.

Anything's possible. It would be nice again to see the Z fighters who are usually in the background get a chance to fight against the Babarians.

Ha, fair enough. After really taking a look at the pictures, it doesn't really make any sense. Humans maybe. I think Toriyama/Toyotaru use the term that Black used for humans loosely, to mean all sorts and forms of humanoid life, kinda like namekians and others I guess? I remember someone on this forum mentioning a theory such as this. Perhaps 1000 years in the future the Barbarians are a problem or something, becoming more humanoid, and thus black tries to destroy all humanoid life? Across all universes?

Here is a somewhat serious crackpot theory: A saiyan will end up inadvertently killing barbarians or something, and Zamasu will get mad about the loss of one of his creations. If Black and Zamasu are really the same person, then they'd probably share motivations too. Black wants to kill mortals, and there has been speculation of him doing this to preserve nature and the God's "successful creations".
