Beerus' vision, Oracle Fish's prophecy and Goku Black

Post by Doctor. » Sat Nov 12, 2016 2:10 pm

The Oracle Fish prophesized that the Super Saiyan God would show up in 39-years time when Beerus went to sleep. As we know, in the main timeline, this turned out to be Goku. However, in the future timeline, Goku was dead. Can we, thus, assume that the Super Saiyan God that the Oracle Fish prophetized was Black?

The whole prophecy was very vague. Just that a Super Saiyan God would "show up". No mention of who he is, or where he comes from.

Hasn't the 39 years thing long since passed though if Trunks is an adult?
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Dates could have been skewed because of timeline shenenigans. Would actually be a good way of showing how free will exists in a verse where "looking into the future" is a thing (Bardock, Time Rings and Oracle Fish).

Of course this is only headcanon.

That'd be some Legacy of Kain type shit right there :P

I personally think it'd be cool for Trunks to actually be the one to challenge Ft. Beerus, now that Trunks has reached a level of power on par with gods.

I don't think it works since Black killed Kioshin not Beerus directly.
