Maybe after this arc it will be for the better that they don't introduce anymore female characters, ever since the introduction of Vados it's obvious the fan base can't handle themselves appropriately.

"Can`t handle themselves appropriately"?

I'm not here to assume the skill of others in containing their love for their new favourite characters. :D

Though, seriously, the reaction to these female characters has been almost nothing but overwhelmingly positive. With the tree reactions being: "Ah, cool!", "They exist *Shrug*" and "WAIFU MATERIAL DETECTED!".

Just to clear things up, I have no such feelings for Cauli... seriously. none...

With the exemption of Fem Broly from the start tho, everyone was losing their minds when she popped those LSSJ muscle body and eyes, but now almost everyone has a thing for her.

Either Vegeta was just that scary or Cabba's way too sensitive, or it could also mean that U6 is a peaceful place compared to U7.
You guys do realize that Vegeta was threatening to destroy his planet while beating him up right ?Cabba had no reason to think he wasn't serious. Cabba is an elite too.

I'm pretty sure saiyans saw loved ones die in front of them before but they never went super Saiyan like Goku. It's always been kind of bullshit.

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.

It was established in the Freeza arc that Goku was a special case in that regard with his pure of heart or whatever and why the likes of Vegeta could never get it, the SS transformation made all sense at that point... but from the Android arc onwards it lost all meaning, impact and sense.

True stuff. Still, why didn't Goku go super Saiyan earlier ? How about Gohan ? He's the epitome of what a super Saiyan was told to be.

U6 Saiyans are all good people, it makes no sense they never went SSJ. Did they never saw some of their friends die in front of them? Did they never rage so hard they achieved the form?
I could understand it being rare among U7 Saiyans which were few, weak and selfish but it doesn't make much sense there isn't even a legend among U6 Saiyans.

I guess Goku just wasn't pushed to the limit of unlocking SS, sure shit happened to him prior to the Freeza arc but the combination of actually seeing his best friend blow up with Goku also being helpless and knowing that Krillin won't come back again is what finally tipped him over.

Then why didn't Gohan go super Saiyan when Piccolo died and Gohan was helpless ? I feel like that would've been just as big of an emotional moment. The SS thing was always pretty iffy. Especially the second Goten and Trunks transformed.

I guess Piccolo and Gohan and didn't have a strong enough bond? Then again 16 and Gohan didn't and Gohan went SS2 when he died, so I don't know, this is why I don't like thinking too much in-verse when it comes to DB! Anyway SS got iffy for me the moment Vegeta got it.

Being a good person doesn't mean you can be emotionally detached or you rage when something bad happens.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Both of them are really interesting, I wonder if they'll react to Frost? Maybe they were hired by him sometimes.

She seems that she will be a yandere character.

Broly was also a yandere, in Kales case instead of Goku triggering her it will be Cabba.

About Frost, if Caulifla ends up with Cabba, Frost can have Kale. :)

Broly's not a yandere. By definition, a yandere has to be in love with someone.

Well Broly had a different type of love toward Goku, the love of beating him up.

About U6 saiyans in general

Daishinkan said something with the words of "U7 and U6 are pairs, so their power rivals each other".

Frost already got a free powerup, so i guess that him, Cabbe, Caulifla and Kale(non LSSJ) will be in the same tier.

Are you implying that it wasn't love that Broly felt for Kaka Carrot Cake?

It was more than love..
It was his intense desire to pound Goku.. in more than one ways...
