Beerus might destroy the universe? Gasp!

He needs to do it. The jerk. Nothing in the universe matters except for Earth and Namek sometimes.

So Beerus wiped out the dinos. Hahahaha, classic. Predictable but classic.

Beerus sucked at it since there are still dinos in the DBverse.

If Frieza Planet #419 can have it's entire species miraculously repopulated, a few dinosaurs can still be around after a wholesale slaughter.

There were a few cool revelations this episode...

-Whis is the fastest flyer in the universe. Most already figured as much, but it's cool to have confirmation.
-The Kaioshin create planets/life in the universe. Beerus destroys them.
-Beerus has only been awake for half a day, and already destroyed 8.5 planets.
-Beerus still freaks the f*ck out at the fact that someone else managed to kill Freeza. The fact that the friggin God of Destruction holds Freeza in such high-regard tells you how damn powerful he was.
-Only Gods/Kaioshin can sense Godly ki. Again, just nice to have additional confirmation.
-Beerus is who originally locked Elder Kaioshin in the Z-Sword. This is strange because in the manga, Elder Kaioshin said the being that trapped him in the Sword(who was unidentified at the time) was weaker than Majin Buu--but we know Beerus is obviously MUCH more powerful than him. Meh, retcon I guess.

Its weird cause a lot of this is deja vu from the movie. I feel they are running the same lines. It looks like we are going to see Goku and Beerus fight again.

Yeah, the first 3 episodes show us what happened in between Beerus awaking, and him first encountering Goku on King Kai's world. And evidently there was a space of about 12 hours there.

Essentially it has just expanded on BoG more, which I love. 👆

Same here

Do you think we will see them fight again?

Also, Bulma's Bday party is not @ Capsul, its on a cruise ship.

Possibly, I however find it more logical that at the point of Majin Buus rampage, Beerus would have operated on the same level as the Supreme Kais (making Buu the stronger). I think, had the Supreme Kais not been killed by Majin Buu, given their powerlevel when they died, then they would have, with training, been around Beerus. But this is just my opinion.

[edit]

Never mind.

Per VIZ, Elder Kaioshin said that the person who locked him away in the Z-Sword was "almost as terrible as Boo!":

I think the non-canon scanlation says something about Buu being more powerful, which is what I remembered... But that's neither here nor there.

Suffice to say: nothing was retconned. So far as we know, Beerus/Whis have always been the top-dogs in the universe. 👆

The "terrible" comment could be a reference to how evil/bad Beerus is/was rather than a comment about how powerful Beerus is.

^ That's exactly what I'm saying. 👆

Who thinks we are going to get to see Beerus and Goku fight again?

Yeah. Terrible in my opinion means, Buu was more terrible simply because he was a berserker and always angry. At least Beerus can pick and choose.

So is Goku stronger than gohan post buu fight? Vegeta seems to think so

To be fair, Elder Kaioshin said the same thing about Buu:

The potential to destroy the universe, while impressive, doesn't mean much if we aren't given a timeframe in which said destruction will occur(ie. how long it will take to accomplish this.) He might be able to do it in one shot, or it might take him eons. Very ambiguous.

True True

Elder Kai did say eventually though in that one.

I wouldn't be surprised if Beerus did have that kind of power

Elder Kaioshin said that Buu would make his way "here" eventually(ie. come to the Kaioshin planet/realm sooner or later.) And the Kaioshin planet/realm exists outside of the prime DBZ universe all together.

So basically he said that Buu would destroy the universe, and then start destroying that which exists beyond the universe.

ahh makes sense. I alway thought they were within it.

Here's a map of the Dragon Ball universe:

Another:

In a nutshell: the large inner-sphere=the prime physical universe and all of its associated realms. The small outer-sphere=the Kaioshin planet/realm.
