Or maybe I'm overthinking Dragon Ball... I see Zeno as an exaggerated version of Buu. Remember Buu dancing around towards his opponent, then landing a subtle punch, launching them miles into the air? Followed by a brief grin? Seems similar here. Extremely care free and somewhat troll'ish | ||

I would have prefered it if Zeno would be more like Dr Manhattan / One of the Endless (Sandman) It is ok to have comic relief characters but thw hole tone in super is so childish a lot of the time. I just wanna have a serious arc well done :/ That's what made DBZ great imo. | ||

Or maybe I'm overthinking Dragon Ball... At the same time, because he seems so childish and somewhat naive, I think if what the Grand Priest said wasn't 100% true Zeno would just say so, you know. Although tbh the whole "Zeno planned it all along" thing to me seems like they just needed an out after they realized "Wait a second, prompting the annihilation of that many Universes makes our hero look really bad". | ||

But zeno pretty nuch acted and presented himself as god in the future time line being able to erase that whole universe if hes jyst a place holder how much stronger can the grand priest be if hes the real god of all. | ||

But he didn't erase the entire future universe, right? I'm still convinced of the Buu'ish personality. | ||

There was never any indication that he had a Buu'ish personality at all. In fact, we see him erase the future universe because he didn't like what he saw, simple as that. I don't think the show is trying to make us wonder who Zeno really is. Rather, I think the idea is that he's pretty childish and will act out on a whim, destroying whatever he doesn't like. | ||

Would make sense both as a way to make the arc shorter and cut out a pointless Hit-Goku rematch that would add nothing. And Vegeta-Cabba friendship. I want to say no, it was never indicated that if universe 6 or 7 loses, the rest is history. | ||

I think it's because since they are pairs, they would have similar starting conditions so to say, so if the development goes well, they'd be nearly equal in whatever the "mortal level" actually measures. | ||

Maybe. But also it's further true that some universes were destroyed and all currently existing universes are pairs. | ||

You know, I was considering earlier if there's a possibility that some of the current pairs weren't originally pairs until 6 Universes got wiped out by Zeno. | ||

Mostly the consideration was "What if Zeno didn't destroy 3 pairs of Universes but some independent ones?". Another interesting option, what if the Universes were originally triplets? | ||
