How King Kai DID NOTHING As The Future Became HELL

[@kingmehftw]

Look at this guy OBVIOUSLY, the reason he did nothing is because Kai's only help out when its dealing with an intergalactic threat and the androids were only terrorizing the earth nobody cared so thats why it never became a bigger deal, and as a result of it the androids would kill all of the heroes all of those years and nobody cares about it cause it was an earth problem not an intergalactic problem.

[@TimmyTurner421]

Looking at this guy

[@Eric6761]

Wait, are you telling me King Kai doesn't care in the slightest about Goku or earth? He warned him about Frieza and how dangerous he is when it was none of his business and saying that wasn't a intergalactic threat when Saiyans were roaming planets for decades and he didn't contracted Beerus

[@TheFinalChapters]

Putting an awful lot of stock in "King Kai would pay attention to his pupils". Based on the otherworld tournament, he's got far more *dead* pupils than living ones. Regardless, the question ultimately boils down not to whether King Kai knew what was happening on Earth, but whether he was willing to do anything about it. The Androids are, notably, native to Earth. Even if a few of King Kai's pupils happen to live there, it would be a very hard sell to intervene in any way. Furthermore, all of King Kai's pupils died from the initial Android attack (except Goku who died of a heart virus earlier). At that point, what's done is done. He no longer has a personal connection with Earth. It's obviously not a pleasant thing to think about, but it's a plausible explanation.

[@heycxpid]

Agreed. I don’t see why he would personally care, or what he would even be able to do for that matter.

[@Steckdose_]

​@@heycxpidLiterally the easiest thing for King Kai to do is to use his telepathy to call the Namekians so They use their Dragonballs to bring back the Z fighters, which in turn would also restore earth's Dragonballs. Or he could establish a connection between dead Goku and Gohan, so that Goku can give Gohan advice on how to get stronger or tell him about the Time Chamber. Imagine what the Androids would do if Piccolo Fused with Kami and trained with Gohan, or a Post Time Chamber Vegeta and Gohan pulled up.

[@ultimamage3]

So King Kai doesn't care that the most likely people to stop future intergalactic threats like Freeza are no longer around to stop any threats like Freeza?

OK I got another perspective on this after scrolling through the comments, excuse me if this does come up in the video: Why did King Kai help Goku initially? Yeah, ostensibly because of Earth's population threatening to be glassed when the Saiyans would come, but consider this instead: King Kai is a god. An immortal. What were the Saiyans going to wish for? Immortality. Same with Frieza. So I'd say King Kai definitely had a horse in those races, so to speak, because having immortals spring up would destabilize the godly order. And who does King Kai answer to, eventually? Kaioshins. And we see how they don't like "morties" attaining god-level power, *let alone immortality*. The Androids? They were never going to go off-world WHILE ALSO threatening the godly order.

This is how i see it, I think that King Kai should have been a character written differently than the one we got, and the thing that would fix this is for King Kai to simply be juste a trainer for our fighters, and to just react to galactic threats like Frieza, and he is not supposed to care about anything else and he is not supposed to help anyone who asks him, except the gods who are of a higher rank than him.

If you rewatch when goku teleported up there to look for new namek King Kai was completely unaware of the androids and cell. He was surprised someone was stronger than frieza. He clearly wasn’t following the events

[@markhester6556]

Mans really said since Goku is dead there isn't any point in watching over Earth anymore 🤣 So he literally let everything go to shit.

[@Ebullience]

Why didn’t everyone after they died, including Goku, come back for a day with Baba and jump the androids ?

[@Ebullience]

Or once Goku died he could’ve come back, wow

[@MayanFrighter100000]

My only guess is Black Goku was having fun killing both heaven, hell, New Namik, and while keeping everyone else occupied. This is my guess and it’s a really bad guess, but this is the only explanation I have

[@extremelegendsupreme4596]

A question that’s kinda similar to this is why tf did grand priest never do anything to stop goku black. Especially since he indirectly killed all the Kai’s,gods and angels.

[@ajxx9987]

He can't

[@extremelegendsupreme4596]

@@ajxx9987 for one he could, also it makes no sense why Zeno also never got involved much earlier even tho the angels were gone along with everyone else.

[@Redman8086]

I think it just came down to the fact that Androids' power can't be sensed. None of the kais sensed any big evil powers and so they never thought to check in on Earth. It's possible that once Cell showed up though, they may have been alerted, but we didn't see anything after that point in the story so who knows. Goku had probably moved on and was busy training in Other World with no way to be contacted by the living so I doubt he knew anything was going on. Fortuneteller Baba could have taken a message to Other World I suppose but I don't think Gohan or Trunks even know who that is. She probably went into hiding anyways when the androids started destroying cities. Kami was killed when Piccolo was killed, so unless Popo is able to communicate with Other World or a new Kami was found and given that ability, that's a dead end too. I dunno, Trunks' future sounds pretty plausible to me. Also, the dead Z warriors probably weren't allowed to go to King Kai's planet to tell him what's going on because you probably need a really good reason to do that, like a universal threat is going on, which it wasn't at the time.

[@mAcChaosCh]

There's the take that since Goku died of natural causes, he never kept his body and got his spirit recycled like most people. That leaves Krillin and the others... but they don't have Instant Transmission even if King Kai helped. I think this squares the circle nicely. Ah wait, the Namekians could still rez everyone after King Kai talks to them huh... WELP You could say the Z fighters just gave up and accepted being dead, but considering how in the show they always try to pull out every last hail mary they can when everyone's in danger, it doesn't fit. For Shin I do think he would've just let them struggle as he thinks of big picture universal threats like Buu. I mean if the androids destroying ONE planet was enough then where was he when Freeza was terrorizing everything. So clearly while he didn't like Freeza he was chasing Babidi the entire time. Also man the Roshi powerup makes no fucking sense lmao, only thing I can say is Jiren must've suppressed himself to .000000001% of his power to not kill him and get DQ'd.

[@dominiquerobinson8888]

There's a zero percent chance that the Z fighters would've just accepted being dead. In the present timeline they got beat and Piccolo came up with the idea of fusing with Kami right after. Not to mention that they could've used the time chamber.

[@aDm219]

Haha right. 50 years to master kamehameha. Trained entire life to be below level or raditz and then in much shorter time he become strong enough to fight in top.

[@gamerookie09]

Hot take, but out of the 4 DBZ arcs. The android/cell Saga is the worst and has the most problems. The third act of the arc is peak DB for sure, but everything else completely blows. Lol

[@dimensionduelist4149]

I assumed that King kai didn't tell them about new namek was because it was introduced yet,as well as the one day return( although that one makes no sense as to why they don't all go their and attack the androids, unless they don't want a dead soul to die again and Baba dieing too). As for the Supreme Kai he didn't do too much except for saving Gohan and training him. Does anyone know why the elder Kai wasn't released from the Sword in the FT timeline( I know in Kakarot it got turned to stone but shouldn't that have released him)?

[@RobinSwede]

Original timeline Bulma had it rough. Her son was murdered randomly when everything is supposed to be peaceful and had her Time Machine jacked.

[@lrzero1362]

I never understood one thing, when Trunks and the others were at Kami's temple and Goku stated that he was going to find a new guardian for earth(Dende) why Trunks didn't ask Goku to teach him instant transmission and the coordinates of New Namek, to revive the z fighters. If that wasn't possible, why didn't Trunks take Dende to the future in order to repair future earth Dragon balls and revive every victim of the Androids. It's like Trunks had a solution in front of him during the Cell saga and he didn't even care, he was present at the temple, when Goku brought Dende from new Namek. He even saw Goku bring Dende with his own eyes, and he wasn't able to ask him, how Goku did that and where Dende came from, like c'mon Trunks, use your brain, you had a lot of chances to save your future, but it's like you want to be the lone hero and suffer because of it.

[@Coinfliptails]

But .. what would they even do if they were revived. Only Goku knew about the hyperbolic time chamber, and he died of natural causes and Vegeta would probably just end with himself killed again. Namekian dragon balls can only revive one person at a time, however who would they even revive in that case that could train to combat them with their current resources. These are z-fighters without the 3 years of training beforehand too.

[@Steckdose_]

Use 2 of the 3 wishes to bring back Piccolo and Vegeta. Goku could have easily told them about the Time Chamber and his discoveries about Super Saiyan in the afterlife, or telepathically through King Kai from the Afterlife after their resurrection. Then either Piccolo and Vegeta, Piccolo and Gohan or Vegeta and Gohan enter the Time Chamber. You could even, while Gohan and Vegeta train in the Chamber, let Piccolo use Earth's Dragonballs to restore everything to how it was before the Android attack, then he Fuses with Kami and goes to fight the Androids. If the future Androids really are weaker he might just defeat them by himself and even if they aren't and Trunks is just wrong about it, he can delay them from destroying everything again until Vegeta and Gohan are ready to beat them. Or he just wishes for himself to become immortal before fusing with Kami because then he can definitely beat them. There is a multitude of possible ways how to stop it, because Dragonball Doesn't really have consequences unless the Author starts to ignore his own world.

[@Coinfliptails]

@@Steckdose_ that's all hitching on the idea and assuming Goku went to the same afterlife after he dies of natural causes. Also idk about Piccolo-kami. That may be the only viable option that makes sense, that I can't fully deny being possible. (Then piccolo would probably find out about the chamber through fusing but we don't even know if the lookout was destroyed or not at some point already.) And Vegeta is simply too prideful to not just get his ass beat again the moment he returns. (I mean he really b-lined it to try to attack full power Frieza the very MOMENT he got revived. He went swinging right away), and again he wouldn't be ABLE to train with the others, since he'd be in hell. Unless he trains with someone like Nappa to get stronger in the mean time (since I doubt he'd lower himself to training with cold, frieza, or the ginyu force who we can assume were the strongest in hell.) Also trunks could just be saying they were weaker, since the whole time he was fighting them with Gohan, they were mostly just playing around with them. They never stood a chance and so they never showcased their true strength that they could gauge clearly. I'm not talking much about Gohan, since his weird character arc was.... strange so maybe he'd be more sensible after he returns. That's up to hopeful wishes.

[@Steckdose_]

@@Coinfliptails I mean why wouldn't Goku go to the same afterlife? Assuming dying of natural causes leads to a different afterlife honestly seems more unlikely to me as there has never been any mention about there being a difference as far as I'm aware. And even if that would be the case then Kami would still be able to tell Piccolo about the Time Chamber. And you say that Vegeta is too prideful to enter the Hyperbolic Time Chamber after being defeated, when that's literally what he did in the present Timeline. I mean it's not even clear if he was a Super Saiyan at that point so it's not like it would be impossible for Piccolo or Gohan to stop his first rampage and then tell him about it. And well like I said if they aren't weaker then Piccolo is still as strong as 17 on his own after fusing with Kami. If he becomes immortal then he would be able to defeat them for sure, especially if he had Gohan and Vegeta as back up.

[@vegetajp7]

What was he suppose to do he can’t help or interfere and I know what you’re going to see he did in namek saga that was different circumstances. He came over my idea. In this case they all fought they all died.

[@sithmasterx8066]

In my Opinion King Kai did nothing cause the only time he does something is either cause Goku asked him or he thinks Goku needs help, King Kai really dosent care for the others. Also Goku coulndt go back to earth via the 1 day ticket, he died of the heart virus there and not in battle so Goku would have not kept his bidy and just went away

[@DesertGuy702]

Time travel will always destroy all logical sense to a story. Can still be entertaining, but the plot holes are always huge.

[@herohut725]

You know what would have been really funny, if trunks had received the Z sword and when he went back in time because of Goku Black, Goku asks to borrow the sword and he just snapped it on his knee on purpose. Trucks would be freaking out. I can just imagine him say, "Goku! What the F!?

King Kai did more in main timeline

[@captain_crook1993]

My current theory is that King Kai was forbidden from intervening because events were playing out as they were historically intended. Evidence of this being that Trunks giving Goku the heart virus vaccine was considered a crime against history.

[@Theraot]

The reason why he never helped out is because Kai's only help out when it's dealing with an Intergalactic threat, and because the Androids were only terrorizing the Earth, nobody cared. So that's why it never became a bigger deal, and as a result (???) the androids would just kill all of the heroes for all of those years. Nobody cares about it, and it was just an earth problem but it wasn't an Intergalactic problem. The reason why that's horse crap...

[@dominiquerobinson8888]

He never helped due to plot holes lol. King Kai ain't on the same level as the Grand Kai, Kaioshin, GODs, or Angel. King kai's is there to help assist the warriors of his quadrant and provide info.

[@aDm219]

Then Goku was looking for new namek. He went to king kai. And he was just sleeping assuming after frieza anyone is safe what's worse that could happen. Since Goku in the future never visited him. He thought everyone lived happily ever after years later? So he never bothered..

How gohan was not super saiyan grade 2 is beyond me

[@miguelperez9906]

They could have just gon back to dragon ball well and have it be due to the lack of food that gohan was never able to gain the strength to beat the androids even though he revived aid in training. Referencing kid goku loosing his strength when he was extremely hungry. It would also have reflected the fact that when training you need to eat a lot just for maintenance. This would I’ve also made the androids constantly destroying cities and settlements actually have a point rather than them just being a statistic for the lols.

[@Tks132]

@qaaman I have a question do you believe that future gohan knew how to train good enough to close the unknown power gap between him and the future androids? I say this because before going into the hypothetical time chamber trunks , also couldn’t train himself well enough to put front a fight against the androids.

[@danshporen161]

wanna know why king kai did nothing? because if he did there would have been no Cell saga. and its a returning theme: by the time the 23rd world tournament saga came along, the trainning with Korin was irrelevant, by the time Radditz showed up the trainning with Kami had no meaning and so on. it would be much easier to accept the fact the the cannon does not make sense and is far from perfect, but it is still loved by all

[@nicolasgarant9124]

Personally, my biggest question with this whole thing is. How in the world did they ran out of senzu beans ? Korin is still alive and still in his tower. Before they've always had enough senzus for at least a dozen people on any given situation. So I can't believe like one or two guys used them all up. " But Gohan has been doing it for years ! Maybe he got beat up so often he and to use them all! " If this happened with this much regularity, he'd have enough boosts to defeat them now would be ? And again, for most of the time, it's just Gohan, even if it takes a lot of time, I have to believe Korin can grow senzus faster than Gohan can get his body broken.

[@Violent_Wolfen]

We learned in the Goku Black arc from Yadjarobe that 17 and 18 attacked Korin's Tower, trashing it and leave him and Korin for dead. Korin gave Yadjarobe his last senzu bean saving him while Korin himself died from his injuries and Korin was the only one that knew how to grow them.

[@MrKevin486]

Honestly none of this makes sense. Both the Androids, being far stronger than Frieza, are a threat to more than just Earth. Kaio should have definitely wanted to do something about it. And the fact that none of the Z fighters do anything and just like chill in other world just makes no sense given all the BS they pulled off before with the DragonBalls and while being dead, it makes no sense they just let it continue. It's a huge plot hole imo. It's almost like the other world and all that does not exist in Trunks' future or something.

[@extremelegendsupreme4596]

Let’s be real here, even if it was against the rules for king kai to intervene with earth for whatever reason, there no possible way that goku or the other z fighters wouldn’t be able to convince king kai to break the rules (if it was a rule to begin with) especially since Kai’s break there own rules all the time like beerus and KING KAI HIMSELF.

[@Jerry-jo6dn]

People forget Goku died before Androids came and killed the Z fighters. Goku already had the mindset on not getting involved with the living world’s problems.
