Discussion, generally of an in-universe nature, regarding any aspect of the franchise (including movies, spin-offs, etc.) such as: techniques, character relationships, internal back-history, its universe, and more.

Well if convinced to join, I doubt East Kai is going to get killed in the final battle against Babidi. Suppose that means if Beerus wakes up, he'll end up fighting Broly, and may very well confuse him to be The Super Saiyan God, and after such a good fight, Beerus will let Earth continue on, the poor extinct ball it is.
Whether Beerus wakes or not, Zamasu will enact his plan with Black. But I can easily see Broly wiping Black out completely. Zamasu's immortality would be a problem, but Broly could hold of Zamasu until Trunks goes back to the past to find out the solution of the Mafuba. Mafuba figured out, Zamasu captured by either Trunks or Goku, the Day is won.
What if...instead of Old Kai, the Z-Sword itself was sentient? In a way similar to the Byakko sword from Dairanger, it could talk or telepathically communicate with Gohan, and it's through training with and under the sword that Gohan achieves the Ultimate power-up. The Z-Sword never breaks in this scenario, and Gohan uses it in his fight with Buu.

... that's brilliant! I've always enjoyed Ultimate Gohan with the Kaioshin outfit and the sword in Super Dragon Ball Z (PS2).

Gohan wouldn’t have become as strong as he did. Piccolo knew you had to force that power out of Gohan. While the rest would have just treated Gohan as a kid. Making sure not hurt him, piccolo wanted to hurt Gohan. To make him stronger. Of course not to kill him but bring out that rage and latent potential.

The children would be monstrously powerful yet docile.

I still haven’t lived down going, “Who the heck is Tao Pai-pai?” that one time I was talking with Ei’ichiro Oda-kun. But the fact that there are still people reading the series after all this time… All I can say is; “thank you.” Really, that’s all.

And that you also have IMMENSELY skewed and comically backwards priorities in what you think is most important and needed to make a good Dragon Ball story.

What if (this is actually based on a dream I had) Zeno never showed up after the U6 tournament, and Champa tried to carry out his threat to kill his team? He Hakai's Botamo and Magetta, and during the fight Hit fires one of his invisible shockwave attacks at Champa but he dodges it, but it hits the U6 Kaioshin and kills him, which causes Champa to die and Vados to disappear. What would happen next?

Beerus kills Hit out of vengeance. And they use the super dragon balls to resserect Champa and the kaioshins. And eventually all the universes are wiped by Zeno.
A follow up question to the one above. What-If by some circumstance, Jiren was there when Champa threatened his own team mates and Zeno doesn’t show up. Could and would Jiren beat up Champa to defend U6 fighters during the little Tournament arc?

What if Goku and Vegeta went Kaioken and Evolution against SSJ Broly? Would that have pushed Broly into going Berserk? (And no I'm not calling it SSJ Full Power because there's already a form called that)

He’d kill them. They needed MUI or fusion to stop him at that level.
Champa goes nuts and tries to kill U6 team. Goku intervenes which means everyone from U7 does too.
1. All of U6 and 7 vs Champa.
2. If Mortals are losing hit distracts Champs long enough for Goku and Geets to potara fuse. SSB Veggetto (cab use kaioken if it makes a diff) and all of U6 and 7 vs Champa.
If Veggetto and team can't win in fusion time allowed:
3. Shin vs U6 supreme kai. (He's a fat fuck and although we dunk on shin he is scrappy...) If Shin wins he threatens to kill other Kaio reveals link weakness and tells Champa to back off. If shin is losing he reveals the link and asks mortals to step in to fight the other kaio.
How do you see it playing out. If there's a retreating truce does Champa hold a grudge? Does the tourney participants have to come back to U7 to avoid his wrath? How do toy see the series going?
Yamcha almost certainly did not cheat on Bulma:
He was afraid of Women, Bulma was the flirty one.
Yamcha wanted to get married (it was his gonna be his wish)
He suggested they settle down in the Trunks saga. Alternate future Trunks is not a reliable source.
Toriyama wanted new SSJ Kids and not make new characters.
