I don't mind Vegeta or Buu getting the big W, I just don't understand why Goku has to be written so badly for that to happen.

I still highly doubt Vegeta will win. I am expecting some bad final twist a la Future Trunks arc at this point


But Vegeta should have gotten to do more than he did with all the build up and it’s also bad writing in my opinion where they left him but no I don’t think they needed to make Goku mess up to let Vegeta get to do more.

I'm just using him as an example, as it could be Buu or Beerus who wrap things up. My point is that there's no need to make someone look so bad in order to accomplish that. Why not just have Moro pull a fast one and grab the beans from Krillin instead ? It wouldn't be great, but it'd be far better than Goku fully healing someone who, at this point, he knows full well will just attack them again.

I don’t disagree hence my last sentence. Though I don’t think Goku should have let Moro go at all because he is too dangerous. Giving him a Senzu to heal just makes it ten times worse

Good one Goku.
This arc isn't ending anytime soon.

He now has all of Merus' angle powers, which explains why Whis is now involved. Whis vs Moro may end up being the final fight.

Goku is so dumb haha. This is peak ningen stupidity.
At his core Zamasu is good like Shin, though I guess you could say he was so fastidious that it backfired. But you know, for this "Future Trunks Arc" you had to depict Zamasu and Trunks' inner conflict, right? If this was back when I was drawing the manga myself then I doubt if I could have done it. I mean, I'm not very good at depicting the characters' psychology on the page. So this all came together because now I only have to think up the story. [...] On my own, I doubt I would have been able to express Zamasu's fall to the dark side.

Lets be honest here, wouldn't Whis just beat him? I mean, Moro ain't on his level and unless he has Merus's strength he shouldn't be able to fight him.

Toyo has went out of his way to make Moro the be all end all of villains, so don't be surprised if Whis is on the ground next month. :sick:

You know Beerus is thinking to himself that maybe Zamasu was right. :lol:

LOLOL this arc proves Zamasu was 100% right, you just can't trust ningens. They are too retarded to make these big decisions.

Hopefully Whis and Beerus clean up Goku's mess.

*Phew*

Totally fine with that - it's more towards what I'd hoped for than what else might've come out of it.

Only Whis can do anything to Moro right now

What did you think was going to happen ? the biggest problem I have with this is that it means the arc will be dragged out even longer.

The only good thing to come out of this arc is that the upcoming angel fight will look awesome on the big screens. Since the writing for this arc is already beyond saving, at least Toei will make the fights look good and entertaining.

You know, did toyotaro really need Goku to give Moro a Senzu for this to happen. Couldn’t Moro have just used him magic to grab the hand and eat it all on his own without the character assassination?

Edit: You know, at the beginning of this arc I thought Hearts was the Dragon Ball Villain with the worst design. But Yeesh. Toyotaro why? His Goat form was perfectly fine. But not only do you make Moro More Humanoid, but you’re giving him white fur and Eye liner too.

Same. This arc needs to end. I hope whatever Whis plans on doing, he doesn't fuck it up so we can leave....

This is exactly what I've been saying, he could've done all this without making Goku look bad. What he did would be like having Vegeta tell Moro he could go fuse with 7-3.
