Again, we had literally no clue about his character. He could have had a variety of reasons, such as making him surpass Beerus one day.
I'm just saying it doesn't make any sense, even at that time when we just knew he was from U6.
Freeza surpasing Beerus? :?
It doesn't make any sense now, but there always could have been reasons for him training Freeza. Also 4 months and god level is pretty impressive.

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.

I just realized that If Goku forcibly fuses with Black, his SSJB would become Super Saiyan Cotton Candy.

Black isn't already Super Saiyan Cotton Candy?
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

I'm really excited to see what will happen now that Goku and co. had to escape back to the past. Will more of the cast jump in to fight? Will Champa and some of the Universe 6 fighters get involved since Zamasu grabbed the Super Dragon Balls from U6?
Will Trunks finally meet Goten?

If the Super Dragon Balls are going to be used again, I hope we see Champa and Vados soon. Not to mention the return of Hit and Cabba. I don't want Hit to be Ledgic 2.0 (A cool character that was only used once and never shows up again).

I hope they do more with Hit. I kinda liked him at the time, he was cool looking and had some interesting abilities...but then with Black following straight afterward and him being such a good villain he's made Hit seem very forgettable in comparison.

Just had a thought/theory regarding Zamasu, assuming the one in the future is now the official "Supreme Kai" of universe 10 ( I'm sure he killed Gowasu by now ), when they eventually find a way to kill him, will that not also kill the Universe 10's God of destruction?

Zeno would definitely get very pissed from that.

Think about what you said carefully and then I am sure the answer will come easily to you.

So....... was it just not mentioned whether or not there was a reactivation time for the Super Dragon Balls like the others or can they be found again right away or whats up? Cause if so how long has it been since the Universe 6 arc? Which would put us in what year?

Nothing was mentioned. The one we saw fly by Champa's cube hadn't turned to stone after dispersing, so I presume there is no recharge time.

Besides, Zuno told Bulma everything about the Super Dragon Balls, so if they did turn into stones, it would have been mentioned.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Well since it is almost impossible for mortal beings to use them and that these are the original, ultimate dragon balls means its not implausible to think that with their power they have no recharge time. While that dose seem like that makes them easy to abuse even Zamasu would struggle to find them all even if he searched for years as they are scattered between two universes. He must have forced Zuno to tell him the current location of all the balls.

Not really unless your threatening his life or do him a favour you have to wait years to see him. Also that whole omni-king nuke butten really didn't come up while Goku and co were nearly getting murdered now did it.

While its true that time is kind of a made up concept, the Gods still work on some sort of timing. Otherwise they wouldn't have a Divine Calendar like Zuno mentioned. If they were to adhere to some sort of time scale i imagine it would line up with this accounting of time.

I almost feel like AT really liked the other world tournament so much that he decided to make it canon through the universe 7 tournament arc.

There are a lot of similarities.

Don't get me wrong. I liked the U7 tournament arc, and it was unique enough to be its own thing. But pikkon really resembles hit in appearance and attitude.

Pikkon and hit even have somewhat similar fighting styles/abilities.

And they where both defeated by Goku shocking the audience with KoK on top of a transformation.

That being said, I expect Hit to get a lot friendlier with the main cast in the future. I also fear he may be made goofy, similar to piccolo in super. But I would be surprised if he isn't involved in some way in the future arcs. I just don't think he will continue being the quite, mysterious, bad ass people love him as.

Nothing really people spent a weak moaning that it would ruin tension then the very next episode Goku and Trunks almost get killed. Just needed to get that out of my system, sorry.

These fix it all buttens just can be trusted anyway, any time you would need it it would end up breaking, they might not here their beeper go off or someone idiot just goes an looses it.

I bet Goku only ends up using it by accident if at all.

He wanted to go to the other universes for some reason so they could have an arc about that.

What cast ?

I never thought about that but you're right, space doesn't spin around anything so in a way there is no time.

Does that mean if we lived in space we wouldn't age ?
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.
