If it's alright, I think it would be interesting to see the evil Kings (Piccolo Daimao, Vegeta III, Cold and Dabura) hang out together like they're some sort of club.

Picked this gorgeous Dabura up from the post office today and he is perfect. Huge, heavy, intimidating and really great details in the sculpt. So glad one of my all time favorite side villains finally got a figure of this quality!

7 Dragon Ball Villains that could've carried their own arc
Honorable mention, Sorbet. So I enjoy Frieza as much as the next guy, but his wacky and colorful Frieza Force is what firmly places the Namek Saga over the Cell Saga in my mind. Like they're all such memorable characters that I even like Cui ffs. However, let's be real, none of these guys could carry their own arc. At their heart, they're all followers (all except good ol' Geets). Maybe before their recruitment they had more ambition and determination, but when faced with Frieza's insurmountable power, they ultimately all bent over and bowed.
Sorbet is an odd example, because he is definitely a follower as well, although when the power vacuum that is Frieza and King Cold's death opened up, he didn't turn away. He instead took charge and kept the Planet Trade Organization afloat for DECADES, despite being a koala-man with a power level that I'm sure rivals Appule at best.
The only reason he's not on the list proper is because when we finally get to see Sorbet in action, he's trying to pass the torch back to Frieza. He still gets major points tho for leading as long as he did
Tumblr media
Spoilers: no one else from Super is on this list, even though a filler character is
Tumblr media
Monster Beast Giran
Look, I'm not saying Giran could've carried his own saga, but if Dragon Ball had been written by a more traditional shonen mangaka instead of a gag artist, he probably would've been the Big Bad of the 21st World Martial Arts Tournament. And yes, I'm using his added characterization from filler scenes in the anime to make my point.
A milk drinking brute with a voracious appetite and a deep-seated hatred of heroes, this absolute unit was unfortunately no match for Goku in canon, but his hulking appearance and quirky personality (at least in the anime) always stuck out to me. In my generic re-write of this arc, a majorly buffed Giran faces Jackie Chun instead, and defeats him. He then faces and almost defeats Goku in the final, but Goku transforms into a real monster beast for the win, and that's that
Yea I won't be trying to retell the story for the rest of these entries
Tumblr media
Raditz
It says a lot about the quality of Toriyama's villains that Goku's evil brother from space is a mere speed bump on the road to the real top dog of the Saiyan Saga. This dude is so fucking sexy and such a piece of shit that I can't help but imagine what he could've gotten himself into if only he had more screentime
Tumblr media
Staff Officer Black
I know Toriyama loves subverting expectations and that's one of the things I so greatly enjoy about Dragon Ball, but c'mon. Commander Black of the Black Ribbon Army would've been... so so sooo cool. The dude's a true believer, actually loyal to his men, and idk what Red did to become the leader over him, but he seems to have been the real brains behind the operation. Dragon Ball Online brought back Commander Red as a cyborg and all I'm asking is why not Staff Officer Black instead?
Tumblr media
Turles
Aight so Tree of Might isn't the greatest movie, I'd even say it's mid at best, but it also has amazing ideas. The Tree of Might? Neat, inspired, scary, and also drawn from Journey to the West lore. Turles? Sexy tan Goku, what's not to like? His Crusher Corps? Don't get me started on his Crusher Corps, because they all have their own story, which was included in extraneous material, but not the movie itself.
Amond, the big guy? Yea he was an intergalactic criminal that was arrested by the Galactic Patrol until he was freed by Turles. Daiz was the Prince of the Pukimpa Dynasty that led his planet's army against Turles, but was defeated, then recruited for fighting so bravely. Cacao was a cyborg built to fight an interstellar war before he fucked off to become a bounty hunter and eventually join the Crusher Corps. Rasin and Lakasei were fossils resurrected by Turles using extract from the Tree of Might.
Fuck, Turles himself is a low-class Saiyan warrior that somehow found or stole the holy Seeds of Might, which were reserved for Kai. When I was a kid my older brother told me (read, lied to me lol) that Saiyans were all test tube babies grown from different strains and that's the difference between low medium and elite saiyans and why he and Goku are almost identical. Like, that's not true, but there's a lotta fleshing out you could do with Turles to make him and his potential saga more compelling
Tumblr media
Demon King Dabura
Ruler of a shadowy demon realm for thousands of years with a power level that equals Perfect Cell, Demon King Dabura is also... the bitch of a tiny bitchy wizard? Yup, that's Toriyama all right.
So lemme start by saying that this guy gets so little credit he's not even in Fighterz, despite having a cool sword and a huge canon moveset. He also looks... well tbh, he doesn't look as awesome to adult me as he did to kid me, but he's still neat looking. I like his horns and his funky glamrock outfit. He also probably had his own Dabura Force filled with edgy evul henchmen (including Shula from that filler episode, who I'm pretty sure inspired Dabura's creation) that could've easily filled an entire saga.
It says a lot that Raditz isn't the lead of his saga, but imo it says way more that Toriyama created an entire evil universe opposite the regular universe ruled over by this baritone Satan and he's just a footnote. It also says a lot about Dragon Ball Heroes that instead of trying it's own thing, it digs up Toriyama's fossilized spittle and creates Mira, Towa, and Kabuto from Naruto.
Tumblr media
Mercenary Tao Pai Pai
Ok so I'm biased, because this flamboyant bastard is easily one of my favorite villains, and that's including everything, not just Dragon Ball or comics. He oozes so much style that I'm not even sure how you could stretch him out into an entire arc, but it doesn't matter, because he could make it work. The dude can make watching someone else shop for clothes compelling ffs, so as far as I'm concerned, Tao could've been the villain for the whole of Dragon Ball and it'd be just or almost as good as what we actually got
His shirt says Kill You! he's seriously the best don't @ me
Tumblr media
Dr. Gero
Mustache
Yes, I know he was supposed to be the Big Bad, but Toriyama's former editor didn't think an old man in baggy pants and a fat clown could carry their own arc, but they're wrong damn it! Just look at him

Would Batman be capable of sneaking up on Son Goku, or any of the Z-Warriors (Vegeta, Son Gohan, Piccolo, Eighteen, Krillin, Tenshinhan, Yamcha & Majin Boo) in your opinion?
To clarify; I don’t mean “who would win in a fight” - I’m speaking solely of the Z-Fighter’s ability to sense people - would Bruce, or any of the related Bat-family heroes, be able to get the drop on any of them in the trademark Batman manner?
If my memory is correct, Batman has an understanding of ki from his training. So, he would know how to mask his presence similar to the Z Fighters concealing their ki so he can be very stealthy. So, I think Batman & some of the Bat-fam could sneak up on all of them.
Although, I think Vegeta & Gohan would be the easiest to sneak up on. This is due to Vegeta not knowing Trunks could turn SSJ despite living in the same house & Gohan not knowing Goten could turn SSJ despite living in the same house. I think Goten & Trunks would be easy to sneak up on too because they aren't really martial artists like the others & don't have in-depth spiritual training. And I believe that Saiyans have more difficulty sensing ki due to the spiritual side not being their strong point (other than Goku who was raised as an Earthling martial artist).
I believe that the others Z Fighters are a bit more aware of their surroundings mainly due to their training under Kami. But, I think Piccolo would probably be the most difficult to sneak up on since as a Warrior Clan Namekian. He is often always aware of his surroundings and has greater hearing than the rest of the Z Fighters. So, the Bat-fam would have the most difficulty with Piccolo unless they use a device that masks their movement at a pitch Piccolo can't hear (or something like that).
Krillin might be the most aware after Piccolo due to Krillin always being around 18. She may have undetectable energy signatures, but it's just as if 18 is always suppressing her energy since she can donate to the Genki Dama (she obviously has life energy because she is alive). So, Krillin has become used to being around a that person most, if not all but him, can't sense.
Dabura is an example of a person who can sense others despite them suppressing their ki. From what I can conclude, it seems Dabura sensed their living presence (a different part of ki that is always present for living beings even if faint) rather than sensing their suppressed battle power.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, Krillin would more than likely be more aware of suppressed ki than the others due to being able to sense 18's presence. But, Piccolo is still the most difficult to sneak upon for the Bat-fam due to his alertness & super hearing.
Forgot to talk about Buu. I don't think it would be too difficult to sneak up on Buu. But it depends on if he is distracted, asleep, or just being unconcerned. Buu is usually laid back now. So, if the Bat-fam wanted, they can sneak up on him easily by distraction. But being found out would be scary.

Dragon Ball Super 049
Tumblr media
Who wants fish sausages?
Tumblr media
Last time, Trunks arrived in the present, and his reunion with Dragon Team turns out to be very awkward.  He mistakes Goku for his nemesis, Goku Black, and Bulma has to smack him to snap him out of it.  Then Trunks sees Bulma and breaks down crying because in his native timeline, she just got killed by Goku Black.  Also, Kid Trunks is here, and he’s confused by the way his parents call the new guy “Trunks” and he calls them “mom” and “dad”. 
Also, the Pilaf gang won’t shut the hell up, and also Beerus and Whis are intrigued by all of this, and quickly deduce that this is some sort of time travel business. 
Tumblr media
Back in the alternate timeline, Goku Black is still trying to figure out where Trunks went, when his Time Ring starts reacting to something.  Yeah, Time Rings are a thing now, and Goku Black has one, so this is another mysterious trinket of his.
Tumblr media
Back in the present, Whis explains that meddling with time is a serious offense.  Only certain divine beings are allowed to mess with time travel at all. To be fair, no one imagined a mortal would ever invent a time machine.  Also, it was Future Bulma who actually built the thing, and she’s dead now, so who’s left to punish?
Beerus considers meting out some divine justice, but Trunks begs for his forgiveness, and Goku points out that no one told him it was wrong.  Beerus offers to let this go with a stern warning if they can give him some tasty snacks, and Bulma produces fish sausages. 
Tumblr media
And that seems to do the trick.  Beerus continues to voice disapproval of the time machine, but he doesn’t destroy it or punish Trunks.  I guess that’s appropriate, since he knows of the rule, but enforcing it isn’t his department.  Let me pause here to discuss the Supreme Kai of Time.
Tumblr media
So when this arc was first announced, I was very interested to see if Dragon Ball Super would acknowledge the lore established in Dragon Ball Online, where Trunks went on to join the Time Patrol, a group of warriors assembled by the Supeme Kai of Time.  The Xenoverse games and Dragon Ball Heroes manga explored that idea further.  It was the Supreme Kai of Time who first confronted Trunks about his temporal crimes, and he agreed to serve in the Time Patrol as “penance”.  She also agreed to allow his changes to history stand, and to preserve his own timeline, which is how both worlds continue to exist. 
But DBS appears to ignore all of that, since it’s Beerus and Whis who confront Trunks.  Also, in the recap segment of this episode, the narrator specified that Trunks has traveled 17 years to reach the present-day in Dragon Ball Super.  So for this version of Trunks, it’s been several years since he defeated Imperfect Cell in DBZ Episode 194.  I thought maybe his Time Patrol career could have begun and ended before this Goku Black business, but that doesn’t work if Trunks has no idea who Beerus is, or what Goku and the others have been up to since he left them. 
And that isn’t too surprising, since it wouldn’t make a lot of sense for DBS to suddenly reference a bunch of side characters from video games.  Except I do find it curious, because Akira Toriyama had a lot of creative control over the story elements in Dragon Ball Online, where the Time Patrol was first introduced.  So it seemed weird to me that Akira Toriyama would retcon himself like this. 
Then again, now that I know how this arc turns out, maybe the discontinuity was the whole point, and the reason Chronoa and the Time Patrol don’t get involved in this arc is because the arc itself is the sort of time anomaly they would have to correct.  They just haven’t intervened yet.
Tumblr media
“So yeah, I just need you to go to the middle of Dragon Ball Super and just beat the crap out of it.” 
“Sure!  Wait, beat up who, exactly?”
“No, the entire saga.  Go and kick its ass!  No survivors! <3”
“You're the boss!”
Tumblr media
Well, enough horsing around.  We’re stuck with this shitty arc, with it’s lack of Chronoa goodness and Xeno Trunks trenchcoatitude.  Bulma takes a look at the time machine, but it’s infested with annoying comic relief characters. 
Tumblr media
The Time Machine is out of fuel, and Bulma doesn’t know how to recharge it or carry out other repairs.  Fortunately, her future self put a notebook in the glove compartment, and it contains all the information she needs to get the time machine up and running. 
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, Goku and Vegeta ask Trunks what was so bad  that he had to come to the past for help.  Vegeta suggests it might be Majin Buu, but Trunks says he already dealt with that crisis some time ago.  The Supreme Kai of his world prepared him for Babidi and Dabura, and he was able to defeat them, preventing Buu’s resurrection.
Tumblr media
No, the real problem began about a year ago, when a man claiming to be Goku showed up and declared his intention to eradicate all intelligent life on Earth in the name of justice.  He also claimed to have already done the same on other planets.  It would be kind of odd that Trunks would have gotten this much backstory about his mysterious enemy, but we all know Goku Black never shuts the hell up, and Trunks has been fighting this guy for like a year straight. 
Tumblr media
Vegeta accuses Trunks of using the time machine to flee, but Bulma insists that Trunks planned to return with reinforcements.  The notebook in the time machine proves it, because Future Bulma left a note to her younger self, explaining that it would be up to her to prepare the time machine for the return trip.  The notes don’t address her right eye drifting off to the side of her face, however.
Tumblr media
Beerus finds the whole thing kind of dumb, but he’s off in Flavor Town so he doesn’t care. 
Tumblr media
Goku asks Trunks to spar with him to get an idea of how powerful this Goku Black guy is.  The script says he and Trunks have powered up to Super Saiyan 2, but the bangs don’t lie.  They drew Goku in Super Saiyan 1.  Trunks looks pretty much the same whether he’s SSJ1 or SSJ2, which is kind of a shame, but they can’t even draw Bulma on-model most of the time, so no use crying about it.
Tumblr media
Goku turns it up to Super Saiyan 3, and I think this is the second time in the whole series he uses this form.  I mean, it’s kind of obsolete at this point, but they show it in the opening credits, which implies it gets a lot of use. 
Anyway, Trunks is amazed to see this new form, since he thought SSJ2 was the limit of Saiyan power.... sort of like how he never considered ascending beyond SSJ1 until Vegeta brought up the possibility.  Trunks is a little too modest for his own good.
Tumblr media
Then a temporal rift appears in the sky and Goku Black emerges.  Well, I guess we can settle this right now and save some trouble, right?  Right? 
Tumblr media
“All right, losers, pack it up.   By order of the Supreme Kai of Time, I’m shutting this little shitshow down, permanently.”
“Awww, do we have to?  Wait, what if we give you some instant ramen and a fish sausage?  Huh?  Huh?”
“Instant ramen?  Don’t insult me.”
“Forget it, Kakarot, she’s one of those damn food snobs.  I know what she really wants.  Listen.  They can draw you as tall as you want.”
“Yeah...?”
“Think about it.  They don’t even bother with reference sheets on this show.  They can’t even remember what fingers look like most of the time.  I’ve grown eight inches since this turkey started.”
“Is that why your face looks so messed up?”
“Look, everything comes with a price.”
