Black's death revealed?

Post by TheRed259 » Thu Sep 15, 2016 8:07 pm

Not only Norihito Sumitomo has composed a soundtrack that is very similar to the one he composed for Goku's Genkidama in DragonBall Z Kai but as it seems there is a picture from a DragonBall Super merchandise with Goku Super Saiyan Blue doing the Spirit Bomb!

Can anyone tell us if this picture is 100% official?

I'm not sure about that, but hey, we finally get shirtless battle damaged Goku after so long.

The picture is for a 2017 calendar. Whether that means anything in regards to what we'll see in the series, we'll just have to wait and find out. Such products often include content that's not actually represented as such in the source material though. So don't be surprised if we don't see Goku shirtless or using the Genki Dama.

If he ends up looking like that, it'd explain why they used the old outfits.

I don't we should look too much into this. We could end up seeing Goku pulling out the old Genki dama, but there are no guarantees.

Wow, that looks epic. Wonder if it is true.

And it's been a while since Goku used the Spirit Bomb.

They could surpass the universal spirit bomb from GT with a multiversal spirit bomb.

But if Gokû Black killed most of the humans off, wouldn't the genki dama be at a disadvantage? Since it's powered by people's ki.

It looks cool and judging by the leak before showing SSJ Rose it could be possible this is how he dies but I would hope not. Plus what would Goku being SSJB gain in doing the spirit bomb as opposed to being in his base form.

In case Goku black pushes it back, goku would need strength to push it towards strength.So the same thing that happened with kid buu.

In that sense I get it but I was thinking of it being him creating the spirit bomb while in his SSJB form. I just feel if a badass character like black is to be killed it has to be some new creative way not something like that.

i agree with you, I would like black to be killed in way that we have not seen before or is much more badass than a dull spirit bomb.

If Black dies via Spirit Bomb, I'll rage quit.

Goku Black should be the one doing a Spirit Bomb, it is time for a villain to be shown on-screen performing it, rather than just falacy (Cell) or off-screen (Mira).

It took other's worlds energy along with Earth's energy to kill kid buu who is weaker. I don't think it's a great idea, but let's see what happens!

I doubt the spirit bomb would be effective, Kid Buu and Omega Shenron are literally the only villains it's worked on.
