if this was naruto we would have spent 5-7 chapters learning moro's lengthy, melodramatic backstory right before he died

But it’s dragon ball so he has no story and is just a wall for Goku to punch.

In the most literal sense

i'll never forgive naruto for starting with the moral of "hard work overcomes natural talent" and then by the end having that completely thrown in the garbage by having naruto being the most genetically gifted character of all. it's weirdly fascistic

I mean most shonen have that problem (including dragon ball) where they like the idea of hard work, but transformations and magic are just cooler

i guess dragon ballz also did this by having goku be a saiyan but super did a bit of work to undo this by giving us wiener U6 saiyans and having roshi do an ultra instinct or something

Chances are that we'll see Big Goku before Spirit Fission again

Even in this arc Spirit Fission was kinda tragic. It seems like it should have been a hard counter to Moro fusing to the earth and it still barely worked enough to give Goku a minor A whilst he did the hard work with whatever that last fight was

I see it now, people complained that UI was providing a canon power ceiling so now Goku has a new level to strive for again in the form of Big Goku.

Exploration is ill-advised.
So Broly's thing is now Oozaru strength without the size, now Goku can go Oozaru size but look the same

We need an arc to be resolved one day by Goku realising he fought Super Buu to a standstill as a candy ball

Christ, people stopped talking about the ending a day after it came out. I can't think of a more damning response.

Anyways I had a question, what is the name of that western comic that is basically what would happen in a shonen anime after they've defeated all their villains and now everyone's old and having midlife crises?

No, it was really explicitly a shonen tribute with a middle aged dadbod Goku guy and a Vegeta-esque rival guy who has no reason to live anymore. Only came out a few years ago too, might still be ongoing.

Goku's final form looked better in Gurren Lagann and Moro's final form looked better in Berserk, but how they managed to take those concepts and make *such* a wet fart of an ending I do not know

Dragon Balls? Are they tasty?
Does Grandma Goku do all the voices for the Dragon Ball Heroes shorts or do they have a sound-alike? I'm not familiar enough with her voice to pick it out, but it seems like it would be a waste of her talent.

Pretty sure she plays Goku in literally everything (kind of surprised her voice hasn’t given out by now).

I have a hard time believing that people wouldn't shoot lasers out of they privates (if they could) and that break from reality makes Dragon Ball very difficult to watch at times.
