I'm sure a Naruto-style speech and a friend would change him for the better. He's basically Shadow the Hedgehog before Amy chatted with him.

But no... too many meat heads in this series.
I mean Gowasu's been trying that approach with Zamasu... doesn't end up well.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Why do you think it doesn't end well?

Gowasu: Zamasu, go on, fight this human [Goku] so you can see how fragile humans are. n_n
*Zamasu gets ass handed to him*
Gowasu: See? n_n!

Gowasu: Look, Zamasu, study the culture of these humans so you can appreciate them.
*Barbarians beat the shit out of each other*
Zamasu: O_O
Gowasu: n_n!!

Zamasu: Whatchu watchin' on the tube?
Gowasu: That mortal who kicked your ass using god power.
Zamasu: ...
Gowasu: n.n
"Dragon Ball once became a thing of the past to me, but after that, I got angry about the live action movie, re-wrote an entire movie script, and now I'm complaining about the quality of the new TV anime. It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

Agreed! I wonder if we're approaching the end to the Future Trunks saga. If present Zamasu was to killed later this week or the next, then I believe both Black and future Zamasu will also be defeated quickly after.

I think that's been retconned already. People take this way too seriously if you ask me. Black could still easily be a god.

I have personally begun to wonder if Black is also Zamasu. What I mean is, in one timeline Zamasu was more interested in becoming a supreme god and wished for immortality while in another he developed an obsession with Goku and wished to become Black. Then they stole their respective time rings and just happend to turn up in Trunks's universe together.

It wasn't retcon. Trunks couldn't sense Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan and that happened just in Episode 54.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

That was a bit tricky to find out, if you can´t speak japanese. xD

The Band name is "Arukara".

I have grown to Yoka Yoka Dance, and it´s quite ironic how the darkest Arc so far has the most cheerful ending. xD
But i´m all into getting something new, too. xD


@Baggie_Saiyan
Yeah a new OP would be great, too.
Maybe after a possible Timeskip, like in Z? But also it could be, like in GT and they stick with one the entire run. But we can´t say for sure now.

He have Goku's Ki as implied by a vague line by Beerus, so his Ki can be sensed because it's not 100% divine Ki. Why Black have divine Ki is because his Ki is similar to Zamasu, who is a god. Also, having divine Ki doesn't necessarily make you a God, take Super Saiyan Blue Goku/Vegeta for example.

Hopefully it won't be a cheerful song.

Ki from the Kais are not the same as Beerus. Goku had no problem sensing Kais, but he was shocked that he couldn't sense Beerus. King Kai had to tell him it's because he's a god so mortals can't sense him. Black can't be a Kai since Kais are born gods, not appointed like Beerus. Also, it was never implied you needed a certain percentage of god ki to be unsensible.

By all accounts, Black doesn't have divine ki. Not even Piccolo called him divine and he freaked out when he sensed the Supreme Kai.

The bolded part entirely contradicts your argument. Zamasu is a God, so his Ki cannot be sensed going by Kaio's statement. Kaio only told Goku that the Ki of the Gods can't be sensed by mortals, Kaioshin and Kaio are still Gods. East Kaioshin not being sensed by mortals was already established back in the Majin Boo Arc. It was implied multiple times that Zamasu is going to be a Kaioshin.

I never said Black is a Kaio/Kaioshin, i thought you should already that by now since you knew my theory about Black. Just that Black for some reason has Zamasu's Ki, who we all know is a God.
Also, it was never implied you needed a certain percentage of god ki to be unsensible. By all accounts, Black doesn't have divine ki. Not even Piccolo called him divine and he freaked out when he sensed the Supreme Kai.
Yes it was, Goku's Ki only becomes unsensible if he turns Super Saiyan Blue, which presumably uses the 100% Divine Ki Goku have. Goku even after he already have the Ki of the God can still be sensed by mortals, and he only shown to be unsensible when he turns Super Saiyan Blue.

It's arguable whether Piccolo can sense God Ki or not, since he didn't know Beerus is a God until Dende told him back in the Battle of Gods Arc.

I didn't contradict myself. Kais can be sensed by mortals, or at least all the Z-Fighters. Goku never had a problem sensing King Kai or the Supreme Kai. He didn't know it was impossible to sense truly divine ki until he met Beerus. Also, Goku could sense the Supreme Kai, otherwise he would have said he couldn't sense him at the tournament and wouldn't have been so shocked at his inability to sense Beerus.

Goku's base form and other Super Saiyan forms don't have god ki at all. It was never said or implied that he did. He may have absorbed godhood, but it only made his regular ki stronger. So, there is no confirmation that you need a certain percentage of god ki to be unsensible.
