Gohan's going to play around instead of securing the kill again and Goku and Piccolo will shake their heads in disappointment towards their son.

Last Celebration

Finished reading the Dragonball manga in its entirety. You can tell that all those chapters were a drain on Toriyama physically because there’s a stretch where the page count gradually struggles to break ten pages before the finale. Even knowing the ending wasn’t “really” end it still kinda tugged at my heart a bit.

It was cool. I like the fights in Dragonball more than Z but Z’s fights are still leaps and bounds above the competition because Toriyama’s one of the all time greats at conveying action, but maybe I might feel different if I was reading the manga and not using the Jump app reader. I think the biggest surprise is how much anime filler left in Kai is stuff I would have assumed was canon. Also interesting was the gunmen who are just loving assholes murdering people because the world is ending and they can blame it on Buu being too much for the anime to put in as is.

I guess overall I have a lot more appreciation/sympathy for the anime, which given the anime’s reputation I never really expected, but given the chapter lengths you can understand how the yelling memes started.

You have to imagine Gohan avoids theology out of respect of the others right?

"Look, my dad's the son of Satan, my other dad is a space alien monkey, and I'm best friends with God and personally know several others. Zeus just doesn't hold water, I'm sorry."

Both of his dads are Gods. Piccolo absorbed Kami and Goku is a SSG.

It doesn't seem Piccolo kept the godly powers or status post-fusion sadly, since he can't create Dragon Balls nor sense Godly Ki (both of which Dende, the current God of Earth, can do). Goku is a god of mortal origin though, and quickly ascending to even greater levels at that.

Piccolo can sense Godly Ki. For instance, he knew Shin was a Kaioshin immediately. He can't do the Dragon Balls thing because he's basically a Warrior Clan Namekian, not a Dragon Clan.

Imagine some fellow scholar came up to Gohan, begging to know the secrets of the afterlife, so Gohan decides to kill him and bring him back with the Dragon Balls.

"...that's a lot more boring than I thought it'd be."

"Yeah, wait til you meet the creators above all. They're kids. Used to only be one, but my dad grabbed another one from somewhere unimportant."

Not true! Piccolo couldn't sense Goku's Ki after becoming a Super Saiyan God, in fact he asked Dende to confirm it had worked (thus also confirming Dende can sense it). During the second Goku vs Hit fight, Piccolo realized Goku was in combat because he suddenly couldn't sense his Ki anymore, which meant he had become a Super Saiyan Blue. He didn't know Shin was the Kaioshin immediately either, he felt he was familiar but couldn't quite tell why until a bit later, and IIRC even that was due to Kami's memories.

Gohan's mentor, wife, and father-in-law are all the devil. Even his daughter shares her name with a Greek devil.
