What's funny is he's done Main Chapter - Special - Flashback since this stupid fucking arc started

We had to know more about this Moro wannabe. We just didn't get enough of him during his last backstory.

I am beating a dead horse here, but the pacing of this manga is abysmal. I don't get Salagir and DygoKnight's obsession with following a backstory with another backstory.
 
Thinking on how Vegeta was posing before having his ass handed in the opening of Budokai Tenkaichi 3

Multiverse is complete garbage, not even going to waste time ranting about it.

Here are MUCH better fan mangas for Dragon Ball.

Dragon Ball: New Hope

Dragon Ball: Kakumei
New Hope is sick, Kakumei is mixed for a bunch of people for various reasons but I do really like the art style and the story is pretty alright. Dragon Ball Sai is pretty cool, was reminded of it recently due to that shitposter MorcaH making a meme of it. The Yamcha one is fun though iirc it doesn't go too far. Super Kai has an interesting concept but the translation is a bit shotty.

I do like New Hope, weird resurrection refusal nonsense aside, I just wish that the author didn't feel a need to put Power Levels at the end of every chapter. Power levels are best left unstated, because if you lowball them like new hope did, everyone shitting their pants because somebody just got a whole 15% stronger is really fucking funny.
Also Lord Slug showed up and was stronger than Cooler which was weird. Never seen slugwank before.

OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOO...
oh look, a fly!
Universe 19: Techfaggots
Such wasted potential. Their story was interesting, tldr: their universe is slowly consumed by Grey Goo and their only hope is Dragon Balls snapping it out of existence. I've always wanted the kind of story where Superman gets owned by hyperadvanced species who can simply grab some free oxygen from the atmosphere and moleculary convert it into a giant chunk of kryptonite.
Who the fuck is teaching Chiaotzu the Kaioken? “Here, destroy your body and then get your shit pushed in”
Why not? Certainly more interesting than SSJGodSSJGodSSJGod, yawn.
Premise of another universe where humans got shit done by, I guess, putting Dr. Gero on a gig of augmenting the non-Sayian Z Fighters with cybernetics so they could keep up with the powerlevel bullshit.
Make fun of Yamcha or Tien but their training would put them at the top if they had the Ki for it.
 
Chiaotzu was never strong though. Having him around just to get murdered isn’t interesting.

Speaking of Chiaotzu, I've been rewatching Kai and just watched him blow up the other night and thought about how random it was that he could suddenly do that. Like at no point is it even hinted at, it's like Toriyama went "Oh shit, what the hell do I do with him? I can't even remember who he his!".
 
The little dude’s main traits are from what I can recall:
Has telekinesis of some kind
Is shit a basic math
Can blow himself up

Oh, yeah, sign this kid up for Kaioken lessons. He can’t even add. How’s he going to master multiplication?

He can achieve the Zen of knowing the best how to blow himself up. All other knowledge is but a distraction.

Imagine Chiaotzu vs. Beerus - boom! ... and no Beerus.

Hey, I have it on woke authority that math is racist.
You better calm the fuck down.

I could have swore he did it against King Piccolo, and that's why his 2nd suicide on Nappa meant he couldn't he brought back with the Earth balls. They couldn't bring you back twice at the time.

But yeah, the little albino nigga has always sucked. His only moments in DragonBall are dying and getting rekt by Krillin when he used a half-assed instant kamehameha. Another thing Goku stole, the fuckin monkey.
 
I could have swore he did it against King Piccolo,
Nah, he got blasted by King Piccolo after his best friend Tien told him to quickly make a wish to Shenron before Piccolo could make his.

The only reason Chiaotzu exists is because in the Crane School vs Turtle School arc Krillin needed an opponent and Tien needed his own Krillin. He's kind of a one and done jobber by design.
