I think the implication is that the Dragon Balls only work in their timeline/universe of origin. But I could be wrong. The rules for the Dragon Balls are very loose, and made up on the fly.

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
It's mentioned that there is a one year time limit, but only in reference to reviving a lot of people at the same time, specifically those killed by Freeza.

I think the limit is because some people might have been reincarnated in that timeframe. Although, Frieza kinda broke that time limit, being in Hell for so long before his resurrection. Given that the human race was basically extinct, I don't think many were getting reincarnated by the time Trunks returns to the past.
Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
Freeza being brought back long after the one year time limit leads credence to the idea that the rule is in place because Shen Long can’t bring back people whose souls have already been reincarnated. With Freeza there was a soul to bring back to the living world, with most beings there isn’t.ZeroNeonix wrote: Mon Mar 09, 2026 10:59 pm I think the limit is because some people might have been reincarnated in that timeframe.

I think the time limit for group resurrections was only mentioned in the Freeza saga probably so that only those killed on Namek were resurrected and not everyone killed before like the Saiyans. It also makes sense there would be some kind of limit for individual resurrections depending how long it takes them to be reincarnated. It never really needed to be addressed since everyone who died before in the series was resurrected shortly after.

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
I was thinking about the Universe 6 Tournament arc and realized I really like the visual style of that part of the story. I like how the characters have a kind of "alien" look. It reminds me a lot of Jaco's vibe (and it's something that would come back in the Moro arc). In fact, the entire Universe 6 gang has strong designs (much better than most of what we saw in the Tournament of Power).
I also like how everything works as a sort of training exercise for Goku and Vegeta to test their newfound powers before a real threat shows up. It has that element of competition that was kind of missing in Dragon Ball ever since the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai. No real threats, just a test of strength and skill.

Just sit here and waste your precious time. When you want to do something, don't do it right away. Don't do it when you can. Read my posts instead. It's the only way to live a life without regrets.
