Is anyone else going to miss Black?
I can't be the only one who thought Goku Black was an awesome villain. I was really hoping they'd find a way to keep him in the series just a little longer. There are so many directions they could've taken him to prolonge his stay that it almost seems like a waste of a perfectly good plot.
Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
I will. But I'll make sure to rewatch this saga whenever it's possible. I liked Goku Black more than I could expect.
Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
I'm honestly going to miss both Black and Zamasu, I don't much care for Merged Zamasu even though he was a good villain. I feel like Zamasu should have been sealed and Black should have been the last villain in this arc without fusing. I have a feeling we'll be looking back on this arc for years to come.

Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
I missed Black since he fused with Zamasu. I still wish he was the final battle and not merged Zamasu.
Black was an unexpectedly cool villain and he kept us guessing what was going to happen for a good while.

Hilarious that the components "Black" ultimately led to Neo Zamas' doom. By fusing Black did not only doom his own existence but that of the guy he created through it.

Ironic isn't it?
More of a reason why they should've let Black do his own thing!
I feel like they probably could've used him as a temporary asset down the road. It would've been nice if we could've seen a slow but gradual change in Zamasus (or Blacks) view of mortals.

Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
When Black and Zamasu merged there was no more fun to watch in this arc
I so much miss him and his SSJ Rosé form, that little ahoge he had make it stand for me
Also his voice, Nosawa did a great job with his voice. I loved her performance as Black. I can't hear Black other way than with Nozawa's voice, Schemels performance in Xenoverse 2 sounds odd, and probably Castañeda's will too.
I guess it was ok how he ended, since it would have been sad watching him being defeated like Merged Zamasu was today.
He was a fun character and a good villian, will be missed.

I'd say he comes in second as my favourite villain right after Freeza, no one can top Freeza I'm afraid.dragonballgeek wrote:I can't be the only one who thought Goku Black was an awesome villain.

I liked this arc and I hope it only gets better from here on.
I also felt it was over to soon in my opinion, I could easily watch 20 episodes more about zamasu.

Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
You're making me suffer, i miss him so much
Well, at least we didn't see him getting cut in half while screaming like a bitch, and that's great.

I am. Nozawa hit it out of the park with Goku Black. He's so deliciously evil, without sounding generic. I missed him the minute Zamasu took over completely. But Sean Schemmel ruins it somewhat for me with his terrible Goku Black voice when I play Xenoverse 2.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

DB video game performances are always phoned in. His actual performance in the Super dub will no doubt be much better.

Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
Hell yeah. But more specifically because Nozawa killed as Goku Black. Her performance was phenomenal.

This. And I will miss Black a lot... he was a great villain in my eyes, especially for Dragon Ball.Lord Beerus wrote:Hell yeah. But more specifically because Nozawa killed as Goku Black. Her performance was phenomenal.
Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
I preferred Zamasu's more introspective slow-paced development into a villain. Black felt more like a subsidiary extension of Zamasu's will than a uniquely individual character with his own goals. Technically that's true, seeing how both characters ended up being so interconnected with each other. His masochism and depravity combined with the battle loving inclinations of Goku was an interesting spin on an old concept, I suppose. Definitely one of the more memorable villains of the series. Zamasu could very well rank up there next to Freeza, in my opinion.

Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
I do but at the same time Zamasu was well weird last episode not something seen in a DB Villain before, man went total crazy!!
Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
I will miss him so much. I loved everything about him especially Nozawa's perfomance.
What a great villain he has been.

Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
I will definitely miss that black guy..
Seriously though I wouldn't mind if he was the sole villan in this arc.. His Voice acting was great! Character was great, and so was his attitude..
This was much much much more than I expected from an 'evil' Goku..
I would actually appreciate it if Zeno revived merged Zamasu defuses them and they have a change of heart..
Then we get black as a fighter in universal tournament..
Yea... I would like that

Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
I definitely will. Black is one of the best villains in the entire series. Zamasu as well. I feel both were so much better as a duo than a Fusion. With Black's bottomless potential and Zamasu's immortality, you really got the impression that Goku and co had no chance at victory.
They also had great synergy while fighting. I miss Black and Zamasu already--corny speeches and all.

Re: Is anyone else going to miss Black?
I miss him a little... however I also miss some kind of explainaton about his specific "continuous power-up" power. I think that understanding how that worked (not at the beginning, but near to the end) would have left me more satisfied with the character's goodbye (also, I would have liked see him more in trouble before fusing... that just felt rushed).
