I think one interesting thing would be when Top unveils his God of Destruction form, Buu steps up. Buu would say something like "Buu thinks Buu see this before, but Buu can't 'member. But Buu knows how to face it." before showing of Kaioshin combat techniques designed to combat Beerus's Hakai. This would be our bit of foreshadowing for the Moro arc. Buu would make use of his regeneration to fight off Hakai's disintegration, but as the fight drags on, Buu would get noticeably skinnier. After a bit of being winded, Buu would go "Dark energy making Buu hungry. Buu do what Mr. Satan suggest." and use his Candy Beam on the surrounding debris, giving himself a full-course meal to gorge on as he fights. This would end in a double-knockout. On reaching the stands, Beerus would ask Buu where he learned those techniques, to which he'd reply "Don't know. Buu just know." before eating another piece of candy.

[@ClericOfPholtus]

Gotta wonder I mean I know the Black Arc already said no But shouldn't Fat Buu count as SK's still being present in the universe for Beerus to exist? They're part of him

[@lostsoul1209]

[@JohnDoe-qz1ql]

First of all it’s *Toppo* not top. He be givin top or something?! The Kaioshin don’t Fight the hakaishin, they’re part of the Same god structure so why would he have memory of fighting one? If the Supreme Kai dies so does the god of destruction.

[@leard69420]

​@JohnDoe-qz1ql don't mess with us dbz fans we haven't even watched the show Pretty damn sure kid buu are in the same body and somehow have the same memory and I'm very sure that it was buu who killed the other supreme kais of universe 7, only leaving shin/nahare to beat buu somehow. He didn't, as far as i remember because i kind of forgot how shin survived the attack against buu and bibbidi just sealed him away by his will. I can't really remember but i very well remember that buu did fight the supreme kais of universe 7.

[@JohnDoe-qz1ql]

@@leard69420 “Before showing of Kaioshin combat techniques designed to combat Beerus’s Hakai.” He was talking about the memories Buu got from absorbing the Grand supreme Kai, not of an experience Buu had himself. Buu fought the Kais, we don’t know of him fighting Beerus or a predecessor, before DBZ.

[@BobLogical]

It gets breezed by right at the end, but Piccolo vs Ribrianne is kind of a great matchup. Not only does it get to be a giant battle, but it can still carry a lot of the same themes of the 18 vs Ribrianne fight from the anime, just from the perspective of Ribrianne's self-centered idea of love being people admiring her contrasted with Piccolo's love as a mentor/father/brother/friend to Gohan and others. When you think about it, so much of Piccolo's story from the beginning is learning what it means to feel loved and learning to love others and the planet he was born to, and letting him once again sacrifice himself for his ideals and to protect others actually seems like a much more fitting cap to his arc and the thematic debate between these two in the hypothetical fight than 18 just overpowering her like in the show.

[@guardiantree8879]

De

[@Marabcd315]

100% agree, people who are more anti-Super use it as another example of Super dumbing down Goku by making him relearn a lesson he'd already gotten but it's not just the lesson itself. Goku getting a lesson from Roshi and then seeing Roshi demonstrate what he could be if he applied himself properly put Goku in the mindset that allowed him to put together the teachings of every master he's ever had into one technique

[@LuisGustavoSO]

I feel like the original manga told a great story of Goku learning, maturing and finally becoming a master himself. Super, which is supposed to *progress* the series, put Goku in the position of eternal student because... coff coff, flanderization.

i am so upset haha

[@Pangora2]

One of the things Roshi could teach Gohan with his 'back to basics' is posibly the simple enjoyment of fighting. As we know Gohan is not a fighter by nature, Roshi's experience as a trainer could help connect Gohan with things he likes and combat itself. Instead of Gohan relying so much on potential, Roshi could teach him to use his passive intellect to 'fight' less and instead solve the puzzle that is his enemy. I feel this avenue is worth exploring as Gohan could then still embrace his own character, but also find his own way of fighting. I'd also put 18 on the list of characters that could possibly have been cut, as her reason is simple, both parents shouldn't be off fighting. Its a simple excuse, and I did find her decent enough in the tournament, but if we keep Roshi and still need to bring in Buu, she would be the next on my list to leave out just because she has a good reason to do so.

[@lsixty30]

Gohan not wanting to fight or hurt anyone is fundamental to his character though.

[@Pangora2]

@@lsixty30 it is, that is why I am saying this. What I said keeps that intact. Imagine always being told to play the piano and you hated how rigid it was, then so old expert teaches you how enjoyable piano can be. You would still dislike the piano, but upon seeing and learning it doesn't have to be bad you can improve your skill. Gohan could learn to enjoy the creativity of combat while still hating the violence itself.

[@lsixty30]

@ Ok ok, I’d give it a chance. Good idea 👍

[@mannythesmeller6994]

[@Mrryn]

​​@@Pangora2It basically reroutes Gohan's approach to fighting in general. Don't just perform the moves, take advantage of openings, and hit them hard with the intent to blow them away. Use power and skill and especially intelligence to figure out each fighter and pick it apart with *minimal* violence. Tap less into the "you must fight, take them out" side that Gohan struggles with and tap more into the "this is an equation, use your brain" that is a genuine strength and even a passion of Gohan's. And I think Roshi is a perfect mentor to figure that out, a master of breaking down and rebuilding foundations of learning.

Dude showcased that Goku having galaxy blasting power still has much martial arts to learn, even from low powered beings like Roshi. Roshi dodging Jiren's attacks is one of the most amazing moments from the entire Super arc, and introduces a reasoning behind beings with much lower power level still having a chance of keeping up because of sheer gap in skill alone. Cutting him in favour of Tien Shinhan is an insane choice

[@Shadow-yx1fo]

@@molassesman4066 im sorry but if you wanna talk absurd power jumps go all the way back to the saiyan saga lmao, theres a reason toriyama stopped using "power levels" after the absurdity that was the frieza scaling, goku jumped from around 900 to 8000 vs vegeta, then from 18000 to 90000, then from that jumped 3 million (could be a lil off here but its very close if wrong), remember goku needed more than 20 years to reach his peak of what was 900 vs raditz.

Goku was never responsible for the tournament of power. The 2 zennos wanted to erased all universes and start over. Goku's idea of the tournament actually gave people a chance

[@levistewart8856]

Correct, but no one learns that until it’s all over. As far as everyone is concerned, including Goku himself, this entire thing is completely his fault. I think that makes things interesting, as pretty much no one that actually knows him personally holds him accountable except for Beerus. The other universes, however, don’t know Goku. And Goku himself basically feels no remorse for, to his own knowledge, being indirectly responsible for trillions of deaths. Learning after the fact that it was going to happen anyway also doesn’t seem to affect him at all. I do wonder what he was thinking about all of this. He’s not as stupid as Super tended to try to portray him. He actually used to feel things like guilt more outwardly, like the ending to the Cell Saga, where he dies and stays dead entirely out of guilt and obligation. I’m not criticizing anything. Just wishing we could’ve got more mileage out of the other universes and characters blaming Goku for the situation.

@@levistewart8856I think Goku feels no remorse as he was so confident he would win and his only goal was to fight the strongest and afterwards would wish everyone back.

[@fan.of.nintendo]

I'm gonna be honest, I was not feeling the Roshi cut to bring in Buu and keeping Frieza. Don't get me wrong, the Roshi/Gohan training segment was extremely cool, but Frieza's recruitment was an absolute last resort made from desperation, I don't think Goku would willingly bring him in if there were other options, and I think Buu is criminally underutilized in this rewrite to the point that Tien could've stayed and the story wouldn't change at all, but A SUPER SAIYAN GOD RITUAL WITH THE U6 SAIYANS? YOU ARE COOKING 🔥🔥 Can't wait for next week.

Really cool rewrite, my favorite so far. And an awesome cliffhanger, really tying the whole Super story together! The one thing I'd add is that I found the setting of the tournament a bit boring. Just a big brawl in what eventually becomes just a pile of rubble. I always thought that if you're going to do a "everyone goes in all at once" tournament, make it a Hunger Games-y set up where everyone is in a huge area with varied locations and has to track each other down in addition to just fighting.

Personally I would've actually preferred if instead of Roshi not participating, it would be Krillin. I really liked the approach that GT took with Krillin, and how even though he started out the same way as Goku, diverged into a family man as he got older. Subsequently, 18 COULD also not participate along with Krillin. This way, Roshi can participate and so can Buu according to Mark's rewrite (although Yamcha action would be nice too). This way everyone wins.

Honestly, that idea, is worthy of the Super Dragon Balls. Reviving an entire timeline would be such a good motivator, but it falling short from reviving the other Universes being erased. Honestly, that sounds selfless enough to warrant his wish being granted by Future Zeno himself. Future Zeno may have felt satisfied after the ToP, and decides to have his Grand Priest use his Temporal Do-Over to undo the Future timeline's erasure as repayment for such a good time.

9:05 That's just outright false, Piccolo and Goku aren't dumb enough to just raise Gohan's power level and not teach him martial arts fundamentals at all at this point. Not to mention the fact Gohan since he was a child can consistently fight Goku and the others when he's either weaker or as strong as them means he has high level martial arts skill so Roshi teaching him wouldn't really do anything. 21:48 But the Gods of Destruction, Angels, Grand Priest, and Zeno who are infinitely stronger than these 2 made up fighters would know they're cheating so this strategy wouldn't work.

Mark i love this channel ive been a fan since the pandemic and im glad to say these videos still hit the same these videos really got me through rough times

[@isleofredemption]

Why would Jiren believe in friendship? His family, friends and allies were all killed by the heretofore unknown Villain. Every time, he was WITH his friends and allies, and they always died. The train of logic that leads him to think A. I'll fight alone and not risk losing anyone else. B. I always survive- anybody else would just be in the way. makes perfect sense and is the perfect antithesis to Dragon Ball's ongoing belief that teamwork and friendship and trust in one another is the way to win. Not Jiren's fault Super's writers aren't talented enough to make that ultimate conflict of ideals actually work.

[@isleofredemption]

And for that matter, what's the deal with this 'the more his back is to the wall, the stronger he gets'? How does combat even WORK in this show? Like, you have a well of Ki. But if you blow through that Ki then you're helpless which was the problem with Freeza's golden form during its debut. But in Super you can just... randomly... have more Ki? And just second-wind yourself an endless amount of times? Why did Vegeta give his remaining energy to Goku when he can just 'have more'? And how did Goku have enough energy to fight Jiren along with Freeza if the amount of strength you're putting out doesn't lessen over time and Jiren is at-base stronger than anybody else in the tournament? And doesn't 17 have limitless stamina? Why was he injured and tired at the end of the tournament? WHAT ARE THE STAKES?! WHO'S WRITING THIS TRASH!?

There is actually a scene where Buu goes to sleep in the house he built outta people. You know how long it took him to get a full rest? 5 SECONDS! Why is it he was able to fully rest from only 5 seconds of sleep while in Super it takes him days /weeks/months for him to wake up????

[@argspid]

Also, who cares if he sleeps for 3 months? Chuck him in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber and he'll be awake in a few hours.

Mark! The ending of this video. I literally jumped out of my bed and yelled YES!! It is brilliant, can't wait for the next one!

[@coolboy9979]

It makes sense for roshi not taking part since his whole thing is "the next generation" But the weird thing is that roshi is stronger than tenshinhan. In Tenshinhans own episode he got beat up by roshi

[@creativebeetle]

That episode was awful. Tien has been miles ahead of Roshi since Dragon Ball, even beating Goku in a tournament. Since then, he's only gotten stronger, and Roshi's growth surpassing his makes no sense.

[@SamaLayuca]

The very end caught me off guard sooo bad... amazing, Mark!

[@clipsdelosmajes]

Never understood the Jiren criticism, not every antagonist needs to be charismatic. He's the wall no one could surpass Vegeta mentioned in the Saiyan Saga. And I don't have a problem with the motivations. As if that isn't a common issue in our world, the difficulty of accepting help, work together, trust others, etc after losing someone. And that strength is everything. Like the character arc is great Imo. It's a relatable story. It's simple but works and it's relatable.

[@InsignificantVic]

I feel the same way.

[@sawkchalk6966]

The issue is he's just not fun to watch. When Goku fought Vegeta and Frieza, it was fun watching those guys get put in their place. When Goku beats Jiren, it has all the emotional weight of knocking over a house of cards. Not every villain needs to be likeable, but they should be interesting to watch and listen to.

[@sgt.krakatoa1093]

Yeah but He’s also a wall in a sense that He’s a literal wall 😭😭 I actually like Jiren but generally no one wants to just watch a wall cuz its boring.

[@DraconianBS]

It's really just personal preference. I like if my wall has some personality for the viewers to chew on, or for them to present a moral dilemma. It's my main problem with Kaido in One Piece. He's just there for Luffy to punch over and over until he can grind his exp to Yonko level.

[@SharpX0]

People don't like Jiren because he's just a goalpost with no character. His backstory also feels rushed, as if it was added in last minute.

[@brandanvaquerano5809]

After episode 11, a new mark video, eff yeah, gift that keeps on giving.

[@hexxter77]

So by "fixing" the arc you have: Made Krillin do even less Made Tien do even less Removed Roshi in favor of Buu (and didn't do anything with him) Still didn't give jiren a persinality Gave Goku even MORE screentime Did nothing with a lot of cool fighters from other universes that could have gotten more Somehow made super's problem with saiyan wanking even worse Great rewrite

[@seandobbins2231]

Yeah, Mark isn't exactly a good writer. Personally, I couldn't even make it past his exclusion of Muten Roshi because that's just dumb and ignorant of the large impact he had on the tournament.

[@loreaigaprime9096]

4:15 " I fuck with alot of the content" 😂 caught me so off guard for some reason

[@TipstoTheBest]

Imagine a Dragon Ball Super and the whole thing had the last bit of Supers artstyle

[@TheGrinder_27]

So just more time and funding?

[@carninfestation]

@@TheGrinder_27 and more popularity, more income, less complaints about the bad parts of the series

[@Majik95]

Mark your retelling are so good im acc sad we cant see these become canon i love the idea of super focusing on more of the cast

[@eskreskao]

I hope Mark realizes that the real reason Buu was omitted from the real Grand Tournament is because he can heal.

[@mannythesmeller6994]

Ok?? It’s fiction. You could easily just write it so that jiren eliminated him

[@GameBiscuits]

mark god ritualing me at the end is torture lol another great video!!!!

[@shivanshverma2825]

MARK YOU ABSOLUTE MAD MAN I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU CUT THIS INTO PARTS

[@DanielLopes-dh2hv]

10:07 What do you mean goku never had patience??

[@arthurgomes9248]

This guy reviews are all like this. Sometimes he drops personal assumptions without context or reason.

[@MoeenKhalil-db6fu]

Well goku has patience when he has to of course, but goku is far more excited for battles and when there isnt much on the line he doesnt seem to wait much or is struggling to wait.

[@cheesydawg371]

I absolutely love how you've written Gohan and Vegeta in these videos. Gohan as a true strategist and leader and Vegeta still chasing Goku but in a very different way. I wish these character arcs were put into the series and it really feels like it'd be easy to do because the foundation for them is there.

[@benjaminjenkins394]

Nah Jiren is dope. His dynamic serves as an interesting role reversal of Goku and the Z Fighters…Jiren has turned his back on Friends and family and Goku relies on them. Him being stoic and removed is interesting I just think his backstory could use a bit more of a punch up. Like I think a full flashback episode would have served us really well. Sorry but he’s one of my fav characters tbh!

[@JanTheMangaMan]

Ok wasnt expecting that at the end. This is a pretty interesting rewrite so far

This has to be the most blue balling cliffhanger. Damn you Mark!
