What’s wrong with Dragonball Super? Well, Dragonball Z was about space princes, evil space overlords forcibly gentrifying the galaxy, evil robots, genetically engineered monsters, and magical pink killing machines made of bubblegum. The first opening song was about Goku, and the second was about Gohan, and the show was about evil threatening the peaceful lives of people on Earth, the galaxy, and then the universe.
What’s the terrifying enemy of the finale arc of Super? Boredom. According to the opening song, the hideous enemy that must be defeated for the good of the entire multiverse is…being bored. That says everything you need to know about how much this show lost its way.
Look, I love DBZ, and I watched DBS and loved some episodes of it, too. But, seriously. It has issues.
