Wukong in DBS...?

Got hyped thanks to Wukong game, watched recap of some stories from Journey to the west, finished 4th and 5th season of lego monkie kid....

I absolutely love how this ape singlehandedly pissed off every god possible.

Sooo... i thought, what if DB had similar figure? (Not Goku).

A godly monke that pissed off every god and got sealed by Zeno (local buddha), a.k.a every what if youtube channel about "what if goku was trapped in hyperbo..." you know the deal.

Idea was that there was a monke god in oldest times born from the core of a mystical planet appeared out of nowhere, possibly one of early prototypes for super balls Zalama made (yes i do think Zalama is the dragon's name, he has to have one. Namekians copied balls from big one, not created originals)

Anyho.

Monke. Born from ball. Makin trouble and befriends angels and zennie. Angels dislike him, too careless and destructive, but rivals in strengrh or even surpasses a bit the grand priest.

Immortal too.

Gets sealed by Zeno when Zeno gets bored of his shenanigans on a random planet.

Tho he probly already jumpstarted op monke race of his image that scattered and became saiyans, i dunno.

Also, why Wukai? I wanted to name Wukong, but Goku is already Wukong (in japanese its goku, chinese, wukong). Didnt wanted to confuse.

Design inspired by lego version ofc. Game is cool, but too serious.

Also, recolor of old fanart of LMK Wukong but not lego.

Anytime characters swap bodies I always think about which of our silly little guys gets a break from their usual trash bod/brain.

[sincerely-sofie]

I'm thinking of how funny it would be if Ark and Twig came across an outlaw that they don't actually know is an outlaw. And they tag along, hoping for the chance to steal their stuff for a quick buck.

And then they quickly realize just how bad of a situation they're I'm because these two adventurers, NEITHER of whom are registered under an official guild, are destroying these monsters with ease! For goodness sake, that creepy one just powderized that guy while discussing dinner plans! And he didn't skip a beat! Eventually they make their way out and, ever so thankfully, they're not infamous enough to be wanted in this somewhat isolated town. But now they're crashing at Twig's place because he let slip that they dont have a place to stay?? And they can't sneak out because that creepy floaty guy isn't going to bed???? And they have a kid that can transform but ISN'T a ditto!?!? Apparently they have guests coming later, that's good. Maybe they can slip out when they're distr- IS THAT CELEBI!?!?!?!??

Anon you have NO idea how in love with this concept I am. It veered in a rather different direction than what you originally provided— hope I didn’t take too many liberties with your initial premise!

Later on during a family get-together:

Special Poster ''The Divinities Dragon Ball Universe''!

[gifti3]

i wrote a really small thing related to this post! I've been getting back into OIs so i came up with this arranged marriage scenario in a Victorian setting for Asmo and MC and have been chewing on it for the past several days lol I think I'm gonna come up with more stuff for this later but I just wanted to post this for now φ(゜▽゜*)♪

The weather was nice out today so you decided to go for a walk around the estate garden and rest in a somewhat secluded spot. Unfortunately, someone had managed to find you. How did the two of you keep running into each other in place so vast?

"Sooo….." Asmodeus leans into your space to look at the pages of you book. "What are you reading?"

"…A book."

"…Well yea, but what is the book about?"

You hold back your sigh and answer instead. "It's just about something I took interest in recently…"

Asmo stares at you for a moment. "You know, I'm starting to realize something about you."

"You are?"

"Uh huh," he nods. "At first, I thought you were a cagey person, but you're just really socially awkward you know? You kind of remind me of one of my brothers."

You close your book without making note of the page you were on. "I'm going back inside. Goodbye."

"Wait, I didn't mean it in a bad way!"

You sigh. "Are you sure? Cause you've been pretty rude to me several times before. So I'm having a hard time believing that."

Asmodeus makes a face. "It was an observation?"

"Okay. Can you just…let me read please?" The request came out harsher than you intended but maybe you were feeling a little defensive.

So what if you were "awkward". You weren't expecting to talk to anyone when you came out here.

Asmodeus huffs and leans back on his hands. But he doesn't leave…. for some reason. Maybe he was bored?

You flip through your book trying to find what page you were on.

"Page seventy six."

You look over at Asmo who has already busied himself with inspecting his nails.

"Thanks."

Fused Zen'Oh concept from my fanfic! It's actually a redesign of what I already designed three years ago, I wanted to remake it to remember his overall appearance. (His personality mostly stays unchanged, but he's more serious on some matters)

Ummm dragon ball OCs moment?

My brain actually cannot focus on what it wants to hyperfixate on so now I have ramble about dragon ball until I'm sick of it!

Here are three of my OCs I've been working on for some time :) You might see me talk about them/draw them whenever I got my dragon ball phase! Thinking of redrawing the Omni-Queen soon but idk!

Dragon Ball Super manga Ch.42-46

The 2023 Dragon Ball Apocrypha Liveblog continues!  This month, we look at the Dragon Ball Super manga as it continues beyond the anime series.  The Tournament of Power is over, and the Broly movie is behind us, so with no other material to adapt, the manga begins a totally new arc.  Is it any good?  Let’s find out.

All right, so the manga  version of the Tournament of Power ended in Chapter 42, but there was still some room left in the chapter, so Toyotaro just started in on the Moro Saga with the space that was left.  Not much gets done here.  Goku meets Vegeta for a training session in the Gravity Room, when Bulma calls them to tell them that Majin Buu is being kidnapped by aliens.  Turns out, they’re Galactic Patrolmen, and when Goku tries to stop them...

... their leader, Merus, defeats Goku with surprising ease.  Vegeta doesn’t do much better, and Merus decides to bring them along so he can explain the situation when they wake up. 

Turns out, Merus doesn’t need Majin Buu at all, but rather, he’s counting on the Grand Supreme Kai, whom Buu absorbed five million years ago to obtain his chubby, innocent form. 

Let’s turn back the clock to ten million years ago, when the Grand Supreme Kai and the South Supreme Kai were defending the universe from some other existential threat.  According to Merus, this was a powerful magic-user named Moro, who could absorb power from entire planets.  To win, the Grand Supreme Kai used a secret technique of his own invention to seal Moro’s magic powers at the cost of a great deal of his own.  The Galactic Patrol then incarcerated the defeated Moro, and though he was sentenced to death, no one could find a way to kill him, so they just imprisoned him indefinitely. 

But now Moro has escaped, and Merus thinks that only the Grand Supreme Kai can stop him, which means they need to get Buu to cough him up.  Now, I had heard about all this back when this story was being published, but it never made much sense to me that the Galactic Patrol should be so familiar with the Kaioshin.  I mean, King Kai once said that he had never had the honor of seeing the Kaioshin before Shin came to Earth to meet Goku.  But in the flashback, we find Galactic Patrollers observing the Kaioshin’s battle with Moro, so apparently they had some sort of relationship with the gods, and the GP has somehow existed for literal millions of years.  That sounds a little weird, but if you’re willing to buy this, then it isn’t hard to swallow that they were also involved in the Buu crisis 5 million years ago, and they were informed about the Grand Supreme Kai getting absorbed. 

But getting the Grand Kaioshin out of Buu will have to wait, because Buu’s still asleep from before the Tournament of Power started, and no one knows how to awaken him.  In the meantime, Merus deputizes Goku and Vegeta.  For the duration of the Moro Crisis, they’re part of the Galactic Patrol.  Goku tries to shake hands with the Galactic King again, and he fondles the king’s pee-pee again.  Well, why does the king keep holding up that appendage if he doesn’t want Goku to touch it? I don’t think Goku’s reaching down and grabbing that one by chance.

This is all presented as a chance to run through all the GP’s nonsense. They’re given rules about not using their Patroller status to flirt with girls or some nonsense, and Jaco offers them battle vests like his own, but the boys don’t want them, so they have to have the GP logo written on their clothes instead, because the regulations require the logo, but not the uniform.  Jaco wants to show them poses, and... you know, the Jaco manga was really, really good, and I’m glad I read it, because everything they’ve done with Jaco in Dragon Ball Super has just been this really weak, watered down version of the original presentation of the character. Without Professor Omori to ground any of this, it’s just another silly alien who only cares about goofy rules and silly poses. 

Anyway, Merus heads out to assist with a case, and Vegeta insists on joining him, because he wants to understand how Merus defeated him so easily on Earth.  So Goku tags along with Vegeta, and Jaco tags along with all of them, because he’s assigned to Earth, which means he has to keep an eye on Goku and Vegeta. 

Merus’s deal is that he’s this super-competent officer, the kind of guy Jaco only pretends to be.  He foils a space-train robbery, and it looks like Goku helped, but Vegeta realizes that Merus could have done the job even faster than he made it seem. 

Merus gets a report of Moro’s ship heading for an uninhabited region of space, but Goku realizes that he’s heading for New Namek, which not even the Galactic Patrol know about.  But Moro does know, because he heard about the Namekians and their Dragon Balls from a fellow prisoner, a dude named Cranberry who used to work for Frieza.

Goku tries to sense Moro’s energy, and he’s disturbed by the way it feels.  Also, he can tell that Moro could sense Goku sensing him, which is creepy. 

Since the GP can’t reach New Namek before Moro, Goku and Vegeta decided to teleport ahead and intercept him.  This turns out to be a bad move.

Vegeta does manage to save a Namekian child before Moro can consume his life force, but the battle doesn’t go well.

Vegeta seems to do okay, until Moro unleashes some of his restored power, which allows him to manipulate the energy of the planet itself against Vegeta.  Vegeta feigns defeat in order to get Moro to talk, but all he really finds out is that Moro wants to use the Dragon Balls to recover his full power, which isn’t exactly a shock. 

From there, Vegeta seems to have things well in hand by fighting Moro at Super Saiyan Blue, except Moro’s been playing him from the start.  He’s been absorbing power from the planet and everyone on it this whole time, including Goku and Vegeta. 

Oh, hey, let’s check in on Beerus.  Turns out he doesn’t give a shit about any of this, because the battle is happening on New Namek, and the Namekians only drink water, so there’s no tasty food at stake. 

So Moro drains Goku and Vegeta and leaves them for dead so he can track down all the Dragon Balls.  Meanwhile, Bulma calls Jaco to find out what happened to the boys.  Look at Mr. Satan and Tights, playin’ with Bulla.  That’s cute.

But Goku and Vegeta didn’t die.  The Namekians found them and healed them.  Unfortunately, their kid healer isn’t as efficient as Dende, so they’ve been out for three whole days.  During that time, Moro has... only found three of the Dragon Balls.  Uh... Frieza had already tracked four of them down in his first appearance. I mean, which is it?  Moro’s supposed to be insanely powerful, but it’s taking him a long time to collect the Dragon Balls. 

I mean, it’s not like the Namekians can do anything to slow him down.  They fuse a number of their best warriors into a single, powerful savior, and Moro kills him without even looking.  So why has it taken three days for him to get this far?  It can’t be because the Namekians are good at hiding, since Moro seems to have the same ki-sensing powers as everyone else in this franchise. 

I gotta say, I’m not very impressed with what I’m seeing here.  Moro just feels like a bunch of concepts from classic DBZ mashed together into some kind of DBZ-loaf.  His hunt for the Namekian Dragon Balls is so derivative that I’m not even going to bother explaining it.  Moro absorbs energy like Android 19 and Cell.  Moro also has a backstory very much like Majin Buu’s.  The Kaioshin defeating him, the being sealed away for millions of years, it’s all there.

I mean, this story acts like Moro is this next-level threat, so having him do all the same gimcracks as past villains seems like a waste.  And the power-scaling doesn’t really add up either.  He’s super-duper strong, fine, but apparently he was even stronger in the distant past, and the only one who could defeat him was the Grand Supreme Kai, who jobbed out to Majin Buu, who’s been jobbed out to pretty much every major character in Dragon Ball Super at this point.  I think the idea here is that the Grand Supreme Kai used to be a lot more powerful way back when, and it was because of Moro that the Grand Supreme Kai was so helpless against Majin Buu.  But... that feels kind of cheap to me. 

Well, we’ve still got a ways to go.  Maybe this will get better.

ANIME VS MANGA: Android 17's Wish & The Gods' Motives.

DBS ANIME CONTINUITY 📺

DBS EPISODE 131 (3-25-2018)

In the anime, it is revealed by the Grand Priest that the Omni Kings predicted that the winner would make a selfless wish. A selfish wish would've resulted in the erasure of the entire multiverse.

But, they were pretty sure that a selfless wish would be made & 17 proved their expectations to be correct.

DBS MANGA CONTINUITY 📕

DBS CHAPTER 42 (11-20-2018)

In the manga, 17's wish to bring back the universe was unexpected to the Grand Priest. Its almost as if they wanted 17 to make a selfish wish & not bring back the erased universes.

Also, Manga 17 made his wish because he didn't want "those little imps to have their way with things." So, that "evil Angels" theory ppl had during the ToP works better for the manga continuity than with the anime continuity.

ALSO...

Anime 17 spoke politely and showed that he has more human emotion. Something he showed he felt he lacked in the saga was his humanity. Great character development.

Meanwhile, Manga 17 spoke in an angry, uncaring, cold, robotic way. He was demanding and rude to the gods. No character development.
