but what the hell lesson was this supposed to teach?

How to waste 30 episodes before the only good arc of Super.

Basically Super became a thing because Toei knew they had to keep the money flowing in, just like with Sailor Moon Crystal.  No matter what, DB has to stay relevant. Much like Spider-Man.

Krillin is literally the strongest Human on the planet...well strongest man anyway

18 is the strongest woman (considering she's technically still human...just a roboticized human)

17 probably stronger than Krillin.

So, is Krillin going to become a figurative "dragon slayer?"

No, he will remain useless and do nothing in the final arc.

The Future Trunks arc was good.

I strongly disagree on that, hated it, and the ending was a joke.

What do those herbs even do?

How old is Roshi now actually?

What more do they have to learn about controlling energy at this point?  Well I guess you never stop learning, but that's pretty basic stuff, right?

Hey he's bald again! :D

I wonder how much filler is left before the next arc truly begins?

Hard to say with Super, because it's not really based on a manga. But they will certainly feel like filler.

Why is there filler if there's no manga to catch up to?!

It's not the classic definition of filler where they add stuff not in the manga... it's more like... padding. They pad the hell out of it with nonsense like this episode. So almost every episode feels like a filler episode where the plot didn't advance.

I understand that.  But why?

To churn out as many episodes as possible, same as every other shonen.

But, that doesn't mean they have to waste it on bullshit.  They could make the episodes about anything.  They aren't buying time for a manga to get ahead and they don't have to adhere to one.

This is Toei.  They care more about the bottom line.

Super time

Oh wow, it still got it's full OP, at least this week.

Actually, it WAS shortened. It's just that the short version only lacks about 15 seconds that's in the full version!

as a side note based on the promo they aired last night the next ep of Super is the first episode that Abruptly switches to duller coloring in an attempt to make it look more like Z

 

I.e. the beginning of the show easing back into being like classic DBZ
