So no Gohan, no Trunks, no Goten, no Krillin, no Tien, no Yamcha, etc....just the same boring Goku/Vegeta with Piccolo and Buu.

I'm losing interest already.

Why anytime there's something new a good amount of fans assume it has something to do with Broly ?
Because Bio-Broly was the most compelling story in this franchise and in the history of comic/anime fiction to be created

Buu hasn't really gotten a chance to shine yet, Piccolo hasn't been in the battles for a while and we get a brand new character... why is that boring? I mean we already knew Goku and Vegeta were going to be there so...

Same old boring would be all Saiyajins or inclusion of gohan. This is actually exciting. Most excited for that mystery fighter

- Gohan has family to take care of and fighting was never an innate priority for him.
- Goten and Trunks have zero personality and pretty much rely on the gimmick of vision for the sake of differentiation.
- Krillin, Tien, Roshi and the rest just can't keep up
- Yamcha retired from combat

Piccolo and Majin Boo are true freaks of nature and logic. And if there is one thing Dragon Ball has taught me, it's that being a freak of nature and logic grant you more of a chance for an insane and asinine power up. And that's what seems to be in store for those two.

goten and trunks are boring.

piccolo character wise and fighting wise is better than yamcha , krillin and tien.
they could have replaced buu with tien , tho.

i dont want gohan cuz we already have two saiyans and its time to introduce more new characters.

Piccolo is one of my favorites. I can't wait!
Buu I can take or leave.

I'm still holding out for U6 female Goku.
I want her to show up simply to see how Vegeta reacts. Bonus points if Uni 6 female Gokû turns out to be the princess to Uni 6 Prince Vegeta.

So much Uni 7 Gokû starting to ask questions, so much "Shut up, Kakarrotto!" from Uni 7 Vegeta.
On hiatus.

"just the same boring Goku/Vegeta with Piccolo and Buu" yeah cause gohan wasnt part of the group all the way to fukkatsu no f, goten and trunks werent part of buu saga and bog, krillin tenshinhan and yamcha werent part of frieza, cell, bog and fuckkatsu no f and including all of them would make things so different -_-

You can't say Gohan has the most potential out of everyone, but decide he's better off at home to change diapers and writing books when the universe needs him most. FUCKING BULLSHIT!

The universe doesn't need him though. Even if Goku and everyone lost, Earth moving to U6 shouldn't exactly be a problem to anyone but Beerus and Whis since they like the food.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Sure he can. Gokuu and Toriyama don't care to have Gohan fight. Gohan doesn't care to fight. That's that.

Exactly they dont depend of any other planet the only thing that would change if they lose is that instead of giving food to beerus and whis they will do it to vados and champa

I disagree but this is why the U6 Saga would've been the perfect opportunity to have them develop and not need to rely on fusion so much.
I believe that they both have more potential than Gohan but oh well. Piccolo got in the group of 5 so I'm not too disappointed

I don't see how Goku is being a good dad. I mean if he asked Gohan to fight and Gohan said no, then Goku would be a good father by letting him do as he pleases. But instead he just dismisses Gohan as if he is pile of shit, an embarrassment.

BTW I find it a little funny Boo is joining, since doesn't he have some beef with Beerus? Lol.

Again, I'm pretty sure the wording from an earlier post with Goku going 'nah, Gohan's lame, lol' is a hyperbolic interpretation, rather than what's actually said there.

He knows his son. He's seen his son become the strongest person on the planet not once, but twice, and still not have the same kind of enthusiasm for fighting that he himself does. Goku seems to have finally accepted that, even if he himself doesn't understand it.

And again, while I'm sure having the planet's switched would probably be bad in different ways than we might imagine, it's still not exactly at an 'everyone is gonna die' level to where Gohan would feel inclined to help out yet.

So wait, are there super dragon balls in BOTH universe 6 and universe 7, or did Champa just collect six of them from universe 7?

Side thoughts:
- I was right about the super dragon balls being planet-sized. Ha.
- Toriyama continues to show how much he regrets ever giving Gohan any spotlight.
- I should reserve my opinion on this until he's revealed, but I find it incredibly stupid that there's another character in universe 7 stronger than Goku. There better be a good explanation for this being's powers. Watch it be a cartoonish-looking character. My head canon imagines it being Saitama...
- Buu and Piccolo are going to get wrecked.

It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

Vegeta's the one who disregards Gohan's clear will to not battle for sport or unless absolutely necessary and it's Gokuu, the one trying to avoid trampling on Gohan's feelings, who is the asshole?
