Would you like to see the Fused Namekian Warrior return?

Post by Krillin1994 » Mon Feb 15, 2021 8:25 pm

I was just thinking about what happened to the fused namekian warrior from the moro arc after they were revived. I had a thought about how they could be brought into the show to become a valid character and member of team.

He surely has a lot of potential due to to how many warriors fused. Since they'd be aware of Piccolo's status, imagine if they sought him out to have him realise their potential. It would also serve to bring Piccolo into a bigger role again, acting as a mentor to them and himself gaining a greater understanding of his species' potential. Helping them achieve heights of strength in a believable way that could have them relevant.

What do you guys think?

I do think it was a little bit of a waste for him to die so easily to Moro, but his death made for such a jarringly hilarious bit of black comedy. I don't think it's worth bringing him back. The dude literally has no character, no real connection to the Z-Warriors, not even a name beyond "The Namekian Saviour". He's just there, then he dies for the gag. If he were to pursue Piccolo (I mean, he was resurrected by the end of the arc, right?), I could see him acting as another Fusion booster possibly, as really the only way to live up to his title as the Saviour would be to fuse with the far more powerful warrior.

I can't help but feel that the Namekian Saviour's inclusion was to throw a bit of shade at the anime's depiction of Saonel and Pirina, the Universe 6 Namekians. They had the same gimmick of being fused with many other Namekian warriors. Saonel and Pirina at least fused with hundreds of warriors each, whereas this Saviour dude was only the result of like ten, I think? In any case, Toyotaro seems to be fairly adamant about keeping non-Piccolo Namekians low on the tier list as he did nothing with those extra melanin guys either.

Vegeta probably defused him as a favor off-page.

No, if a Namekian takes the spotlight I'd prefer it to be Piccolo or Zalama.

Yes.

And i would also like to see Nail come back as well. He's not a very big boost anymore.
