Dragon Ball Super |OT6| The waiting game

Even if he condensed his remaining years to get power, why does it seem like Granolah has hakai also?
That was my exact reaction.
I'll echo the general consensus that three years seems like an underwhelming condition. I'm assuming the condition is there to answer the whole "well why doesn't everyone do it?" question, but that would've worked better if the limit was like 3 weeks or 3 months.
3 years of Dragon Ball time is especially worthless, unless we get like a 2 year time jump (we won't). Granolah will die or undo the wish while Goten and Trunks will be almost adults and still look 12.
I mean, 3 years later isn't exactly end-of-Z?
There could be a time-skip or maybe this will be the last story set in the pre-End-of-Z, and Granola will show up at a later arc.
3 years is dumb, unless it takes 2 years 11 months to fly his ship across the universe to where goku and co is.
It took the Saiyans a year to get to earth from wherever they were in the original series, it depends on how far out they want to have Freeza be and how big the scope of the arc will be.
3 years instead of days or weeks? A time skip is coming. Vegeta has only recently started his training with Beerus too, so it makes even more sense.
I wonder if this arc will finally be the last pre-EoZ arc.

For the next villain they should just get Satan to wish himself to be the strongest and then wish him back to life once the time limit is up. Easy.
I just realized DBS has officially been off air for 3 years (well "officially" in a week) and I can't believe it. I checked and the current Digimon anime with DBS timeslot has 6 months left (26 eps) so maybe Super will be back this Fall.
He should have just searched for the Super Dragonballs so the wish wouldn't have that set back. Looking forward forward to see what Frieza does.
Knowing Freeza, he already has the partner he was looking for in the Belly movie (either a canon Cooler or Kuriza, I guess), they could fuse and overpower Granola.
Finished reading the new manga chapter and I am confused as to why the boss of the Heeters is worried about Granola taking over/being in Freeza's spot if he did kill him? He has a short life span now, why does it matter? He'll get to be in charge in no time anyway.

Because he two panels later says that Grenola would probably take out Freeza's entire army, that the Heeters want to control, as well.
Now that I understand. I was comparing it more to the scenario with keeping Freeza alive. But thinking it over: They still wouldn't have much chance of controlling his army unless they are waiting for someone else to kill him yet again. Which now I can see why they would take their chances elsewhere.
So... DBZ characters are included in a poll for who you'd want to see in Fortnite.
Honestly, if they got in, I wouldn't know how to feel.

I did for the kratos one and as a shooter is pretty underwhelming. I regret spending 20 bucks.
I'm working through the anime to see if I can finish it. A few years ago I watched Battle of Gods, Resurrection of F, the Universe 6 Tournament Arc, and the Zamasu arc.
I decided to restart with the Zamasu arc since I wanted to experience the dub of it before continuing on with the rest of the series. I remember liking the arc until the very end where it gets stupid.
The Zamasu arc makes even less sense than it did the first time I watched it. It's on another level of confusing and mind boggling than even the 4 timeline shenanigans from Z. Multiple futures. Multiple universes. Multiple future multiverses. Like, holy shit. What a mess.
I mean, it's still a cool arc in some ways but it just reminds me of how Super in general lacks the stakes that made the Android/Cell arcs feel so dire in Z. It's like an earthquake on already unstable ground.
Good fun that's hard to love. That's how I'd put it. I'm still looking forward to getting around to the ToP though, since people always talk about it but I've never seen it.

I decided to start reading the manga to make more sense of the Zamasu/Goku Black arc. I actually like some of the stuff here that isn't in the anime. It's a bit more fun, and they actually show more of Future Trunks with the Supreme Kai. I wish they'd adapted some of this into the anime, as it seems more important than the repetitious battles with Black later on.
This might actually get me into doing a manga read and an anime viewing, side-by-side, for the rest of the series. It's neat to spot the differences in the narrative.

Super random but I'm digging for this for another community that's going through the same kind of thing.
Does anyone have the screenshot of the old place going down with the piccolo image as the last post?

Finally caught up with the Manga. The retcon of Namekian origin is interesting. Guess that explains the two jobbers from Universe 6.
Also it's a bit convenient that there is a set of dragon balls that only require TWO balls and can shorten life-span to grant power. While the bum ass dragon on Earth can't grant power beyond that of the creator...

It's out now.
The conflict setup is pretty predictable so I'm expecting more weird Dragon Ball wishes to mix things us.
Nice chapter. I wonder how long it's gonna take for the Saiyans and Granolah to actually talk and figure out they're being played.
This arc is exceedingly boring and I'll just outline what I said to Geekdom as to why.
First and foremost, the formula of Goku and Vegeta getting stronger just because... is stale and boring IMO. There's no character conflict here, they have no agency. They're being treated as stock video game characters and nothing more.
The lack of focus on other cast members is also a problem. The original series did well to have Goku's friends and family around in a way that bolstered his character. Vegeta just doesn't do that on his own because it's always the same shtick.
It's actually bizarre - the US arc (anime) went in the right direction with this sort of thing so it's not like it's impossible. The writing simply needs to be better and that won't happen unless something truly changes at the top.
I'll add that Goku in particular is probably the most flanderized, passive and boring he's ever been now. He's just reacting to the plot, not pushing it forward in any capacity.

It's taking a lot from the first Broly movie and DBS Broly so far. Very blatantly too.
Yea probably 2-3
enjoyed the chapter. Enjoy the angel/god of destruction rivalry angle as well and Vegeta with an earring is baller. This lil "gang" is a fun time too
I know they'll keep doing it, but Goku's family needing money is so dumb at this point. Other than that, I thought the chapter was OK. It was mostly a set up for the Granolah fight.
I agree with this. Particularly since Vegeta has been so static since the end of the Buu arc.

I'm okay with this. Chapter was really good setting up the incoming fight. I'm sure it won't last more than two chapters.
