Not just killing, think if Dexter became Batman, kill off any Bruce Wayne there was in him, and his thirst for vengeance defined him 100%. And he somehow doesn't come off like a douchebag Azrael is the truly most miraculous part of the whole story. The other miracle being he's not infallible, if anything, he's the most flawed of everyone yet the most justified. He's the MC we needed, yet not deserve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 That's fairly accurate. Unlike Bruce Wayne, he can't pretend to act like a billionaire playboy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Austin Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Wow DBS 131 I didn't expect Spoiler 17 to be the sole survivor. Goku and Frieza team up to eliminate Jiren and Universe 7 wins. 17 wishes for all the universes to be revived and ends up with his cruise. Toppo basically stated the rest of the team forgives Jiren for what he said during the tournament and when they meet Universe 7 again they will defeat them. Whis removes Frieza's halo and says he's not changing and brings back his army. And Goku and Vegeta fight after Pan accidentally hits Vegeta in the head. With Goku saying he can't bring back Ultra Instinct. I didn't know how they were going to do it. But I'm happy with how they got there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 So they actually let Frieza get resurrected and get an army to conquer the universe with? Why is this OK again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Austin Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Spoiler And he's open with the fact he isn't changing his ways. Goku just says we'll stop you when the time comes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritenaut 32 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 This week's ep was definitely the last ep before the long hiatus/cancellation, right? I've been waiting for the last ep to air before I watch the last handful of eps. I've consistently heard 131 was the finale, but I"m not certain if that was confirmed or just speculation. Since I haven't heard anything different, I assume the show is over (for now)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victator Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Spoiler I loved the Super finale, even if it was a little cramped, I thought it ended on a nice note. Jiren had a full character arc. With Goku and Freeza working together to defeat him, driving home the idea that trust has the most power. Then realizing that he had friends the entire time. With how 17 worded the wish, Zamasu and Trunks original timeline was restored. It will probably never come up. But they have that in their back pocket now.

Black Angel Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 131 was dope. Frieza being the ultimate shit talker made the ep for me. Also it's funny that: Spoiler That if any other wish was made besides bringing the universes back would've gotten them all erased anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Spoiler Goku being cool with Frieza getting an army and trying to take over again because it means Goku will get to fight some more is the most Goku thing evah! Seriously, why would anyone think he wouldn't be cool with that? When in DB Super has Goku done anything that would lead to less fighting. He wanted to fight the mailman dude during the first tourney just for shits and giggles even though Beerus told him that would lead to a disaster (Beerus was lying, of course, but Goku didn't know that). I'm surprised the ending wasn't Goku offering to train Freiza so he can get stronger for Goku to fight with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victator Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 Spoiler Freeza could have just stayed in hell. He had his terms and Goku kept his word. Without Freeza U7 was gone. If they had to use Yamcha or God forbid, Chiaotzu, U7 would have lost. He is alive and been warned, which in terms of a Shonen anime is considered dealt with. Thinking about it more. It was Whis and Beerus who brought him back to life fully. The choice was taken from Goku. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I mean, Beerus deleted whole worlds because he didn't like the food... and didn't Toriyama basically insinuate that Frieza destroyed planet Vegeta b/c Beerus told him to? I don't think he cares what Frieza does. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 I mean, it's established that even at their new power levels, they're still not near Whis and Beerus, so it's not like Beerus can't snap his fingers and send Frieza out of existance again.

J.H. Posted March 26, 2018 Author Share Posted March 26, 2018 The thing is, if Beerus had to pick one of his 2 pupils to be his replacment, I don't think he's picking Goku James 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victator Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Spoiler Well let's be honest, has Freeza killed more people than Vegeta? Or more evil than Piccolo Daimao? Dragon Ball has always had a theme of redemption underneath the fighting. Battle Of Gods even had that as its coda That something about Goku and Earth brought the best out even the worst. Freeza is still evil, but he seems different than he was. And hell he might be a stabilizing influence in his part of space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freeza is still evil, but he seems different than he was. And hell he might be a stabilizing influence in his part of space. This is pretty accurate. See: Buu, Majin, and even Evil Buu was reborn into Uub, who was mentioned as a potential team member if he were old enough/trained, which in Super he isn't. And the Andriods, well, at least 17, 18, and 19. Cell wasn't redeemable, and well, he isn't around anymore in any timeline, nor is Goku Black/Zamatsu. The irredeamable ones are pretty much toast, the ones that at least can somewhat change get do overs. Now, if Freiza backslides or goes full evil, we get another arc. Super pretty much erased GT, so can Super's next arc be officially wiping GT out? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
