    1. What is the absolute BEST Dragon Ball game of the last 2 decades?
    2. It's actually crazy that even if Bardock was a Super Saiyan, Frieza still would have won
    3. Kind of funny that every villain in Z could have easily beat the Z Fighters if they trained for a week or two.

    2. Why didn't Trunks ask Supreme Kaioshin to bring him to Namek
    3. Theory: maybe in Dragon Ball “mutant” simply means having a biology that reacts to ki in an unnatural way
