Speaking of Rin and Yukio's mom and characters showing up in filler way before canon, it made me think of Krillin's girlfriend Maron, and his eventual daughter Marron. 

For some reason people started posting clips of Gohan and Videl on Youtube, and so I wanted to pick up Kai where Toonami last left off, with Goku turning Super Saiyan for the first time, and eventually get to these episodes.  Honestly I could've watched a whole anime of Gohan and Videl's slice of life high school romcom hijinks. 😁 Anyway -

There's no way the manga was THAT far ahead for Maron to be named after Marron, right?  Nope, and it turns out Toriyama didn't name Marron after Maron, either.  If the Dragon Ball wiki is to be believed -

https://dragonball.fandom.com/wiki/Maron

Maron shares her name with Krillin's daughter, who was introduced later in the manga, with only minor differences in spelling and pronunciation. The manga writer Akira Toriyama stated, however, he did not name Marron after his old flame. Since Marron, like Krillin, means "chestnut," (specifically the French term) it is likely that this is a case of the same pun being used by both Toriyama and the anime filler.

Honestly though, who names a kid after an ex?  I can't imagine 18 being ok with that haha.  But, 18 being Krillin's first girlfriend makes a lot more sense anyway.

Lighting caught?  So I guess he didn't have clearance for everything he did haha.

Yukio is being a dumbass.  Might as well let him find things out the hard way at this point.

Interesting, wasn't expecting him to slip him a USB.

Her shorts just keep getting shorter!

And man Google image search sucks for this show for some reason.  I couldn't find any good pics of this design of Shura!

Yukio finding out the "good guy" organization was rotten to the core all along, like Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood.  

I guess the Knights of the True Cross can claim they are doing things for the "greater good" but still.

Guessing he's feeling like this due to how weak he was as a kid and how much pressure he's put on himself to not be like that once his dad offered to train him, so he probably feels like he's gone completely backward when he has to consider relying on his brother in a more serious way than just in a fight who he still views as not comprehending the gravity of his existence (he's still naively blind to Rin's character growth too). Feels like a huge inferiority complex. But still, back in the flashback in like episode 1 it was revealed that the reason he wanted his dad to train him in the first place was so that he could support Rin too so this really is all in his head.
