EPTPeople are really underestimating them, at worst they're a SSJ3 Goku. How is that not an improvement over Tien/Krillin.

Frost is stronger than first time frieza because Piccolo was weaker than Frost in the U6 arc. Goten/Trunks anmoyance is mainly super anime bad writting (and manga kinda as well) I guess they decided to let let them age even tough 5 years passed for marketing reasons. | ||

Krillin and Tien doing anything remotely valuable was just fan service. The anime is way worse about this. The manga feels like a much more dignified version of the anime. | ||

You have to give credit to Roshi's short arc, that was amazing both as fan service and a great piece of Anime right there, one of the most powerful couple episodes in Super really Roshi giving it his all. The manga will really struggle to top that. | ||

Although the one way I could see it is selling the underlying theme about U7 being made up of former enemies, and gotenks being the pinnacle of that, considering their genesis, but they weren't really enemies themselves. | ||

Gotenks taunting Toppo and Jiren from the stands after elimination, spanking himself and all the other things he did against Buu, would be 9999999999999x better than Krillin constantly being like "0_0 Goku!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" over and over.

Dad being dad I guess, and I probably wouldn't want my 5y old fighting against a bunch of other warriors (I'm not Goku though). I hated this because it violated saiyan philosophy. They send babies to conquer worlds. Vegeta beats the shit out of Trunks. To me, it was borderline dishonorable for Trunks and Goten to not be given the opportunity to fight and die for their universe. Saiyans don't fear death, they fear inaction. It would be proper for Trunks and Goten, even if they were weak, to be given the opportunity to fight. The fact that they are insannnnnnnnnnnnnely strong and would likely wipe out entire universes themselves only makes the situation even harder to swallow. | ||

But the idea of not letting a saiyan get beat up is really fucking stupid. That is like chichi levels of stupid bullshit. I understand what you are saying, with stuff like "My bulma", but preventing Trunks from fighting for his own survival is many steps further than other glimpses of Vegeta's softer side. | ||
