Every battle is a Goku or Vegeta thing and is starting to be really boring and predictable, having the rest of the cast relevant again could do wonders

Something like a sayan / namek / partly cell saga rewind

And I think is silly to have sayan only god tier warriors, should be possible for every race member who train enough
So, we're not including the Future Trunks Saga where Trunks had some of the best moments?
The problem with Future Trunks is that he is not a full time member of the cast.

Cabba went back to his race of peacekeepers with a new transformation. Why wouldn't he share it with them?

My current guess is that our new Broli is a lone mutation discovered as the Super Saiyan transformation spread throughout the Universe 6 Saiyans.
We potentially have a planet full of super Saiyans and a legendary popped so early as well..
On top of that they are all good Saiyans, given a planet full of them it won't take long for someone to accidentally do the super Saiyan God ritual..
SSB being just SS on top of that when mastered is also gonna be a thing sooner or later, in that population someone has to be present who keeps the power after time limit..

The whole universe is gonna he littered with SSB's..
Shit
I wonder if Vegeta teaching SSJ to Cabba was a mistake, if he taught them all in U6 the ability, perhaps some like the female LSSJ can't control the power and the next arc is going to be purging good Saiyan's gone bad (Basically what happened to Broly when he transforms) in Universe 6. I wonder if some Saiyan's have a gene in them that mutates into the LSSJ form, which no one would never know about in U7 because the Saiyan's are extinct. That would mean those arm guards could help control that power, she has the exact same as Broly. The Saiyan's especially Vegeta, put a huge emphasis on bloodline and royal bloodline, I wonder if there was one that could react to the SSJ form and mutate it like Broly and the female we saw. Like a distinct clan if you will, descended from the original SSJ?

So saiyans gaining god ki is fine, but with earthlings it's not? What sense does that make, especially since god ki is implied to be able to be gained by anyone.
Makes total sense, since the Saiyan arc, the humans couldn't keep up with the Saiyans, so for them suddenly reach God-tier is a extreme BS. It's nice to have them to be revelant again, but without asspulls, we had enough with Future Trunks.
So training to gain god ki is an asspull now? Seriously that makes no sense.

Yea, cause it cheapens the method, the same way people didn't like the Super Saiyan bargain back in Cell to Boo arc.

Except god ki can be obtained by anything. There's no reason why they can't be equal to Goku and Vegeta's base at the minimum.

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.

Well, cause that kinda mess the whole "new generation takes the place of the old generation" message passed by the original manga in my view. It was a great to see amazing fighters try to keep much as much as possible with Goku but they got surpassed and understood that, it's character development. EoZ give this message as well as we see Piccolo and the earthlings didn't sign up to the tournament meaning that they no longer intend to be the "main deal" and Super having a bunch of God-tier fighters would ruin this ending.

I capped the new OP preview for anyone that wants to listen.

I really like it! Sounds super high energy which was my biggest complaint when it came to Chozetsu Dynamic. Very happy. Can't wait to hear the full thing!

That already got destroyed in the boo saga. Besides krillin, and tien are the same generation as Goku so that doesn't matter. Piccolo's actually in a younger generation so ? And Super should not be held back by EOZ at this point. It was something written by a tired Toriyama. Just because it's in the original manga doesn't mean it should be held to a high regard. If EOZ set up a world where only Goku and Vegeta matter then it deserves to be replaced.

I believe you didn't quite understand what I meant to say as by "generation" I meant power not age lol

And yep got destroyed, but not instantly as Boo arc tried to be a "new generation" thing by having Goten, Trunks and Gohan to take place the major battles in the arc, but people missed Goku and they could always use the "main character" card, so not really a big problem.

Even if you say that EoZ was written by worn out author, I like the ending and if Super intends to keep things credible it won't just ignore it.

Already sounds way better than Chozetsu Dynamic.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

This is dissapointing as fuck! People got me hyped that there were going to be new scenes of the Gods of Destruction and all i get are the same scenes we already got earlier.. seems i was hyped for nothing. Damn it.
Why don't they try and hype us up like the time Battle of Gods first came out!??

Unlike Chozetsu Dynamic, the new Opening theme sounds like a Dragon Ball song. It seems catchy and full of energy. Finally!

Operation Reset starts next episode.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Well, I guess if they can't get Kageyama, may as well get the next best thing
