He's...he's a planet now...
Well, we're fucked. Is he literally gonna eat everyone now? Not sure how anyone's gonna fight that. How do you fight the planet without blowing it up? Because if they blow Moro up, everyone is gonna die except Beerus and Whis, who are just gonna stand there like 'WTF'.

Big fat Moro, Is this the second coming of Cell?

Planet Moro? :? This reminds me of Universal Zamasu.

I don't think even Beerus can do anything about this. I mean, if he destroys the planet, everyone will die. How the hell are they supposed to kill Moro without bringing in a greater problem like Zeno, who will probably erase universe 7 as a whole if he found out what happened? This is getting ridiculous writing wise. Also, how do you do spirit fusion on the damn planet?

According to DBShype, the title for next month's chapter is :shock: . I hope Moro isn't going to be the star of the next arc as well, where he becomes a threat to the entire multiverse or something.

Goku's shit is kind of a big deal, he's the main character after all. It doesn't help that he hasn't been written well to begin with in this revival.

Pretty disturbing turn of events here. I think whoever has been comparing this arc to Cell deserves credit. I'm seeing a few too many parallels to that villain and arc for my liking -- which is odd because initially the Galactic Patrol arc had the makings of Daimou and Freeza rolled into one. Now Moro has even achieved a comparable state to Goku's Ultra Instinct a la Merus' powers.

Could the Mafuba dislodge Moro from the planet or Vegeta with his Spirit Fission? It looks as though that event comes before Moro emerges from the smoke with a pristine new coat of white fur and lining on his face.

Edit: If I got the order of events wrong then I apologise.

This is worse cell arc tbh.

I feel like this arc has been going on for 5 years, and the only thing that does not feel like filler is the UI stuff with Merus.

I am just commenting on what others have said about the chapter not my own feelings about it

Toyotaro has rehashed the whole "Moro evolution" concept too much, if you ask me. It's overstayed its welcome. I feel like he should have been brought down sometime around when Vegeta appeared with perhaps another source to power him up or, at the latest, with his post-Seven-Three absorption and Goku/Vegeta working together to defeat him.

I definitely agree. This fight should've been over last month, yet somehow he's now a...planet. I can't even imagine where this arc is going at this point.

It amazes me how many aspects of previous material he copies into his own. I can accept a little here and there but this arc has gone overboard with it.

I agree. Moro should have died by now before this ever happened.

Now he's the planet....how do DESTROY him without nuking everyone?

This arc is awful, like a discount cell writing wise. Like its dragged out and Moro keeps getting powers to justify his prolonged survival. What's next? He pulls a Zamasu and devours the universe?

I think my main problem with Moro is that copying others isn't actually HIS ability, but it seems to be the focus of his character now
If default Moro had the neck touch thing as a magic attack then it would be better IMO

Don't give them any ideas.

At this point I think Toriyama just gives his approval on anything that goes his way, as if he was seriously correcting things this much copying wouldn't get passed him.

It sounds like Moro can’t control the Angel powers so to me if does sound like he will destroy himself

Not sure if Goku knew this would happen or not but I am thinking not


Edit: Okay after reading the ending of the chapter I guess I could possibly see a way for it to be a Goku/Vegeta team up. To me that is the best care ending scenario. Someone needs to get Moro out of the Earth (Vegeta) and then Goku can destroy him.

Now that Moro is the planet, how do they kill him now? Destroying the planet is suicide since in the process they'll be killing themselves. Unless you can spirit fission the planet I don't see how they can remove Moro from Earth's crust.
