....I mean this series ostensibly IS a fanfic written by a Fanboy Toriyama gave the express right to call his fanfics canon

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.

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.

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
