He's gonna be so ridiculously powerful

He better be. Vegeta was more powerful than Black, and Goku was far more powerful than Zamasu. Them together in base mode would be more powerful than Black in Rose. SSB Vegito should be on par with the most powerful beings in all the universes combined.

I'm hoping they keep them together for the next arc, which is the multi-universe tournament Zeno decided to host.

I also want to see SSB Vegito pull Kaiokenx10. Would be insanely fun to watch.

Problem is Zamasu can't die.

Just watched the episode so I am late to the party but I have to say I did not like that episode. It made little sense.

So all the sudden Potaro fusions are not permanent to mortals...even though it's been established that they were in the past (although no real explanation was given for them unfusing inside Super Buu)

Trunks somehow not only can turn his sword into a lightsaber, but he also somehow learned the Spirit Bomb and can summon energy and put it into his sword effortlessly. Put it this way, Trunks spirit bomb in this episode compared to Goku's against Buu is like Gohan's kamehameha against Cell versus Goku's first one in Dragonball. Where the frick did Trunks get all this power? I know he gets his arse kicked a lot, but Zenkai boosts alone should not be enough to make him as strong as fricking SSJB Goku or Vegeta.

less than an episode of Vegito...(was it even 5 minutes of screentime for them?)



Personally, I was really looking forward to Goku and Vegeta being fused together for the entire next arc and seeing the comedy associated with it as well as them kicking arse in the multiverse tournament. It seemed logical to me that the Super Dragon Balls could have been used to unfuse them eventually (if the Earth balls were too weak-though the Namekian balls were able to unfuse the Kais).

Dragonball Z Abridged Episode 56 is out!

I love the fact that a lot of depth and questions about the original series are answered in these episodes.

Why did Gero hate Goku so much?
How did Hercule win a martial arts tournament when Puar, Oolong, or Chichi could take him out in an instant and Yamcha or Tien would kill him with a flick?
Etc.

Also Chichi basically killing Goku with snu snu and "Going for Ten" is pretty clever.

Because Dr. Gero created the Red Ribbon Army and had plans to rule the world, and Goku merely a child (suppose it wasn't fully understood Goku was a SAIYAN child) destroying the entire Red Ribbon Army was humiliating to a man of his stature and ambition.

Well, he was actually the champion when pretty much none of the DBZ characters were participating. In other words, he was winning during the really easy years.

I think it was basically during the entire DBZ series beginning. Everyone was usually thinking about the next earth threat,Saiyan Saga, Garlic Jr., and then there was the Frieza Saga, Android/Cell Saga.

As you saw at the end of DBZ, right before the Buu Saga, it was only in the time of peace that everyone even thought about the World Martial Arts Tournament again.


Also, Puar, Oolong and Chichi were not really "fighters".

Puar, Oolong, and Chichi were all able to survive a bullet. Videl who was stronger than Mr. Satan was knocked out when she was grazed by a bullet.

An English dub of anime TV series Dragon Ball Super has been announced and will begin airing in the US next month.

Adult Swim announced the news today, revealing Super will debut during the network's Toonami block on Saturday, January 7. It'll air at both 8 PM and 11:30 PM ET, with the remaining Season 1 episodes--there are 26 in all--following each Saturday.

The press release mentions Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection F actors Seán Schemmel (Goku), Christopher R. Sabat (Vegeta), Jason Douglas (Beerus), Ian Sinclair (Whis), and Sonny Strait (Krillin) as all being involved.

They just finished the Cell saga on Toonami. I wonder if they'll keep going and show both at the same time.

SPOILERS:








I didn't mind the end to Trunk's arc. I was happy they let him get the kill, although it is a little bit questionable. It was fitting that the being that loved using spirit blades so much died to a spirit blade.

These filler episodes have been shite. I'm ready for a new arc to begin. The non-canon crossover was crap.

I think the last episode was a canon crossover since Arale was in the original Manga as well.

just gunna leave this here.....

Anyone confirm the new arc? From what I'm reading Gohan will finally stop being such a bitch and get back to being a badass. Not sure what's allowed here as far as spoilers go...
