But he is inexperienced for his age, since all his teachers got annihilated by Buu. He was green as fuck during the Buu saga. Which I hope is the reason why he was so incompetent during that arc.

Let's say that wasn't forgetfulness, but a conscious decision (which, considering Toriyama's track record, seems quite charitable to me... just three years ago or so, he was saying there were three Kaiōshin at any given time, two active and one inactive, which contradicted the Majin Boo arc and has been contradicted by Dragon Ball Super since (plus, see the translator's note... the contradictions don't end there))...
It would still be a poor decision, as you could achieve the exact same result without contradicting what's been established during the Majin Boo arc by simply calling all those new Kaiōshin "Daikaiōshin".
Shin didn't know who Beerus was even though Beerus had only been sleeping for 30 some odd years.
So no, I'm not talking "newbie" in a relative sense where he's a thousand year old teenager, we're talking like Super wrote him as becoming Supreme Kai during Beerus's sleep. Even King Kai knew who Beerus was and Shin didn't.

Speaking of Dabura, ever notice that his design shows up in different works of Toriyama?

Lmao, Buu Saga troll Goku was the best

He got even closer to that design in Heroes:
This isn't Yamcha.
But yeah he keeps doing this. He can go on forever in Dragon Ball and keep coming up with clever designs, yet the second he can start over he's gonna go back to his classics.
I like it, even though it gives an impression that his art is limited (which isn't true at all of course).

No way in hell this isn't a small piece of the shrine right next to your bed.Japanese fans are on another level, not even I can keep up.
Lol. If Slaythe don't have a 17 shrine I'd be surprised. My own Gohan shrine is a work in progress.
Part of me thinks this is what Slaythe's soul looks like.

Proably eat, sleeps, breathes and sweats 17.

I loved Krillin and Gohan on Namek, shame they never really hung out after that.
This week is 83.

If you want to count fillers and some of the movies I guess.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
The kanji reads "Mr. Failure"

Don't worry, i still like 17, way more than goku at least
Then why is he less relevant than 18 and Yamcha
Because it's a slow burn.

17 has at the very least had more character development than Yamcha, even if most of it seems to be off screen.

Now that I'm remembering didn't 17's technique skew towards physical attacks and not energy blasts?Moreover, I don't see 18 and Yamcha doing that in the OP.
18 did when she fought Future Trunks, but I don't recall 17 ever using Ki blasts in neither of his versions (present and future).

Damn. No wonder Yamcha doesn't bother now, he's been through it all.

But this is the dystopian future 17. Nicer 17 isn't a beam blast person even though it has been quite some years since I've watched the Android Saga. Yamcha got a hole shot in him like the punk he is god damn.

It bugs me that Goku/Trunks/Vegeta, hell, probably even post chamber Piccolo didn't fuck Cell up when he puked 18.
Btw I guess Cell is capable of regenerating the bodies of those inside him since Vegeta and Goku both destroy a lot of him.

Sounds good. Excited to see the new ED next week.
Glad Gohan is part of the recruiting effort
Also lol at people being upset about the preview saying Krillin is already retired from martial arts when the two parter about him had him say he wasn't going to become a martial artist, he was just going to get stronger for his daughter.

Gohan back with such an active role pleases me greatly. The only thing that would make this even better is some father/son training. Such an underutilized dynamic in Super after Z had some great moments.

Huh? No, he outright said hat he was becoming a martial artist again for his daughter (see the scene where he flies back to the Kame House together with Goku).

Wasn't it that Cell regenerated himself based on the last known good configuration (when he had both of them inside him... god that sounds dirty)?
