Shouldn't have the dead Future Eastern Kaioshin still supposed to be around?

Post by Angelus » Mon Nov 21, 2016 11:49 pm

When Elder Kai gave his life away to Goku, in the Buu Arc, he stood back up with a halo on his head. In either then anime or manga, shouldn't have Future Eastern Kaioshin still be around with a physical body and a halo on top of his head, even after he passed away from fighting Dabura, Pui Pui, Yakon, and Babidi together with Future Trunks?

As a side note, with the Z sword turned to stone by Future Dabura's spit, and then it breaking while stone, Future Old Kai died. But shouldn't he also still be around with a body and a halo on top of his head?

I have theorized about this before.
I think because the Elder Kaioshin was not an active Kaioshin, there was no pressing need to have his soul get transferred to the tree that grows Kaioshin (yet to be confirmed in Super), whereas the opposite is the case for East Kaioshin.

But going with that theory, there would have already been a pressing need to reincarnate North and West Kaioshin after they were killed by Kid Buu. Yet such a long time has passed and the only active Kaioshin is still Eastern Kaioshin. If North and West Kaioshin just stood back up with a body and a halo on top of their head, after they were killed the first time by Kid Buu, then there wasn't a pressing need to reincarnate them, just like Old Kai.

Maybe all of them need to die in order for them to be reincarnated. I would love to see South Kai again.
