Ch 482 color chapter! except unfortunately not :( but there's a whole two-page cover spread that looks like it'd be pretty nice in color! (Super Fusion!!/Perfected at Last! Super Fusion!!) oh good they've got books to read i was so worried there was just nothing to do here Is this really doing any good? Well, Shin's not sure, but the elder kaioushin seemed so confident... he feels it'll work out, somehow. Meanwhile, on the distant hill, Gohan is now sitting, which is probably an improvement over the standing part, but the elder kaioushin, having stopped dancing, has started sleeping. Gohan wakes him up and he denies having been asleep in the first place. Maybe that looked like sleep to mere mortal eyes, but it wasn't. Now shut up, there's still a bunch to do! The elder kaioushin promptly goes back to sleep. true hopelessness looks a lot like being truly, deeply, sincerely pissed off Fusion update: it's time for the kids to try some fusion while super saiyan. I'm a bit unclear on how this works; is the fusion unable to go super saiyan, or is it stronger if you start off in super saiyan mode and then fuse? On a moment's reflection, it's probably the latter, right? I mean, if the idea is somehow that the fusion takes whatever you put in and multiplies it... or maybe increases it exponentially... then starting at a higher state is going to get you a stronger product. Is that how fusion works? You'd think I'd have some idea, considering I've been talking about it for the past 1000 chapters, waiting for it to happen. so you say Trunks and Goten go super saiyan and match their ki. When he deems them ready, Piccolo gives them a countdown. Fuuu... sion hah! oh wow look you've made a smaller and somehow even more smug vegeta! the two-tone hair kind of obscures it but gotenks certainly does seem to get a lot of his looks from one side of the "family" Most of the audience is very impressed, but Piccolo's reserving judgement until Gotenks proves him/themself. (I'm super conflicted about the pronouns for Gotenks. I don't think I've seen anything concrete in the manga up until this point. Hmmm. Gotenks does use the singular "I", so maybe I should follow suit and go with the singular.) you haven't changed a bit!!! He flies off without waiting for an answer and Piccolo is forced to follow, probably swearing under his breath to himself the whole way. Gotenks has some fun on the way, and when I say "has some fun", I mean he circumnavigates the planet several times. When he finally catches up, Piccolo scolds him, but, well, it falls on deaf ears. god i just want to put a shirt on him. please put on a shirt, gotenks. why don't you have one when both goten and trunks do??? how does the clothes part of fusion work?? being official babysitter when you have to babysit saiyans has to be... the worst. unless the saiyan in question is gohan, who was a good and sweet child. but then again, he never fused with anyone, and fusion seems to bring out the overweening pride in a person (... two people) Gotenks lands on the cliff overlooking Boo's alien-grub house, challenges him, and then promptly splits apart into his constituent parts. yeah. you dummies They take off. gotenks' outfit is kind of weirdly similar to boo's. that's. hum. strange.
Ch 483 dinner and dragon ball at 10:48 at night. this is truly the life of a grad student (The Friends of the Djinn/Majin Buu and Friends) i never thought i'd be so invested in a series where a scene like this makes perfect sense (well, enough sense, anyway) Boo loved storytime, but now that it's over, he's off to continue his murderous rampage. Mr. Satan gets an invitation to come along, but he refuses and says he'll be waiting with dinner. not my first guess re: mr. satan's talents, but, alright! (although, do i trust boo's judgement on this matter? has anyone even made him food before? maybe mr. satan is terrible at cooking. he did seem to like those poisoned chocolates. ooops, i think i forgot to mentioned they were poisoned) Mr. Satan sees Boo off with a cheerful wave and a "Good luck!", but the moment he's out of sight, Mr. Satan hurries to set up his next assassination attempt. It's an explosive this time too, but of a much larger caliber than the rigged Game Boy. It's set up to be detonated remotely, so he hides it in a convenient decorative pot and waits for Boo's return. Meanwhile, somewhere else, a dude with a sniper... laser... rifle thing is taking people out for fun. Just because he's always wanted to shoot someone! He kills an old lady who's with her husband, trying to escape to the mountains in the hopes that that will let them avoid Boo. His companion isn't quite so sanguine about the whole thing, but the first dude orders him to kill her husband, and he does. Wow. Fuck these assholes. They get back in their fancy-looking flying car and go searching for more Boo survivors that they can make into corpses. Mr. Satan is frying an egg and thinking about what a big damn hero he'll be when he manages to off Boo when, speak of the devil, the being himself returns way earlier than anticipated, and with a dog. mr. satan: dog whisperer Mr. Satan doesn't speak dog, but he thinks the pup's got a hurt leg, and that's why he's not running away. Boo sees a solution to his dilemma (the dog won't run, so he can't kill it) and fixes the dog, much like he fixed the blind kid's sight. Yay! Now the dog can run! But he doesn't, and so Boo has a new problem: the dog seems to like him. exit, pursued by dog Boo eventually gives up trying to flee and embraces having a new friend. It feels nice to be liked. As a sign of friendship, he tries to give the dog chocolate, but Mr. Satan puts the kibosh on that. Dog food for dogs. Boo doesn't know what that is, so Mr. Satan leaves to go buy some. He'll be right back! Except, of course, as soon as he's far enough away, he stops and prepares to detonate the explosive he planted earlier. He takes out a small telescope/monocular to see his handiwork. fun with dog Of course, after seeing something like that, Mr. Satan can't do it. He sets off to finish the dog food errand with a halfhearted resolution to do it later. The dickheads with guns are still out and about and have apparently managed to kill at least 40 people. Like, are you kidding me right now? They get a bright idea: they're gonna go and take out Boo, because they've got more guns than brains. His weird house is nearby, right? stop eating everything Mr. Satan has a question for Boo, and despite being nervous, manages to ask: why all the killing? It's fun! At least, that's what Bibbidi and Bobbidi said. Killing people is how you play. hey i have an idea: mr. satan can be boo's new dad Boo seems displeased for a second and Mr. Satan immediately reneges on everything, but then Boo asks if he thinks he should stop. Mr. Satan gives a scared affirmative response, and so Boo decides to quit. well thank fuck! someone go tell gohan he doesn't have to subject himself to old man hell any more, and maybe tell piccolo to keep a tight reign on trunks and goten Aaaaand of course shortly thereafter is when Assholes 1 and 2 show up with big plans and shoot the dog. you "got one". yep. you sure did just shoot a tiny dog that was playing with a ball. fucking incredible man well, i can't say for sure, but let's hold off on releasing gohan from old man hell
Ch 484 Lessons learned? Don't shoot people's dogs (The Creature of Wrath) Asshole #1 (with the ponytail) has decided that the best course of action is to fire a small rocket at Boo (and Mr. Satan, who cares about him? If they defeat Boo, they can be the heroes). Followed closely by a second and a third. These guys are lugging around some serious fucking firepower and I have no idea where they've been keeping it. They have a vehicle and capsules exist, so it's not that surprising, I suppose. The do manage to destroy Boo's house, but, well, not its owner. whoops there goes the steam that's probably not a super great sign ARE YOU FUCKING IDIOTS? YES! YES YOU ARE! LITERAL ARMIES HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO NOTHING ABOUT BOO. WHY THE FUCK DO YOU THINK A COUPLE OF HALF-ASSED ROCKETS ARE GOING TO DO ANY GOOD? ARE YOU FUCKING DRUNK? Assholes 1 and 2 are, somehow, just shocked to see that Boo's 100% unharmed by their blistering barrage of 3 rockets, and the ponytailed one goes straight back for the launcher, because I guess what else are you going to do at that point? However, Mr. Satan has managed to make his way over to where they are and he lets them have it. First the subservient one, who he knocks off the cliff they've been firing from, and then the other. mr. satan is tilting the scales a bit towards the "endearing" side and away from the "annoying" side for me lately go go! Finally, Mr. Satan sends him tumbling down after his friend, and then spits on him. He walks over to the body of the dog and makes a discovery: he's not dead! And that means that Boo can heal him. this poor fucking dog has been through so much in the past day :') This whole scene has an audience as well. man with so much of humanity dead and gone there must be just nothing good on godtv Piccolo doesn't quite understand what the hell "that braggart" (AKA Mr. Satan) is doing with Boo. i'm sorry but look at how good my son is. i love him Unfortunately, Piccolo's less than sanguine about that particular possibility; he still senses some sort of threat. Distracted by the dog miracle, Boo and Mr. Satan don't notice Asshole #1 sitting up and drawing a gun from a holster on his belt. This time, he shoots something more important than the dog.
(continued) the bad signs just keep on coming Mr. Satan isn't dead, so Boo's able to heal him, but something seems very... off. There's some shit going down with Boo that is far outside the norm for what we've seen of him so far. This seems to have triggered something that's beyond just the anger we saw when Vegeta called him ugly, or Bobbidi called him fat. oh jesus Mr. Satan asks what's wrong, but at a final (scary) urging from Boo, wastes no time in getting the fuck out of there with the dog in tow. Boo's still steaming, and after Mr. Satan makes his hasty retreat, he reaches a full boil and releases a huge burst of steam/smoke... which looks awfully familiar. Very much like when Boo was first resurrected from the shell. so basically: what the actual fuck is going on
I actually really wanted to do the next chapter as well last night specifically because 484 ended on that kind of note, but I was just too tired ;.;
Ch 485 hmmm i wonder if the title of the chapter will give everything away? naaah, probably not (Two Boos?!/The Two Majin Buus... And Then...) * looks directly into the camera * did boo know this would happen? does boo have much idea at all about how he himself works? my guess would be "probably not". although he seemed to know something was up, but that's not necessarily because he knew what would happen, just that something bad was happening. makes me feel.... not good. i dunno, maybe it's just because i've always been interested in the workings of the human body, but it feels real bad to me to imagine having very little idea how your own stuff works and i feel like that's the position boo is in because did anyone bother to tell him about himself? probably not! and now the people who would know are dead. mmm :/ The steam condenses into something much less visually appealing than our Boo. ... wait.. wait wait wait. was the sickly gotenks foreshadowing????????? holy shit??? am i reading way too much into this??? The two Boos look at each other and the narrator provides a helpful answer to "what the shit just happened?" oh okay Wrathful Boo smiles unpleasantly and then flies over to Asshole #1, who shoots wildly at him for 0 damage. Wrath!Boo vaporizes him with a blast, as well as a large chunk of landscape in addition. He then goes sprinting over to original flavor Boo and gets right up in his face. Original!Boo takes a swing at him and sends his head snapping back, but Wrath!Boo retaliates with a straight shot to the face, a sweeping kick, and a series of forceful blows. Original!Boo isn't faring too well against his angry clone. i wonder how boo chocolate would stack up against poisoned gourmet chocolates? Original!Boo sends out his transformation beam, but Wrath!Boo deflects it with a puff of air and Boo finds himself on the receiving end of his own attack. :/ on the one hand? killed somewhere on the order of 5.6 billion people, if we assume that DB!earth has roughly 7 billion people on it. on the other... i have been manipulated into finding boo somewhat weirdly sympathetic, so i feel bad transformation complete Wrath!Boo, now the only Boo, pops the chocolate into his mouth and... something... happens. guess the boo!chocolate is the good chocolate Boo produces enough steam to completely conceal himself. Up on the Lookout, Piccolo freaks out a little bit, and when the steam clears, we get a view of yet another Boo form. what even is going on This new form cracks his neck, yawns, and then lets out a roar that fractures the ground around him and sends Mr. Satan, who's been watching from a safe (ish) distance, tumbling. his hands are so weird piccolo thinks so too
Ch 486 aaaand here's the start of vol. 25 (in dbz chronology)! that leaves a grand total of two whole volumes for all of this to somehow come to a conclusion (The New, Terrible Boo) i'm gonna cry, there's so little left yeah it is! oh wait, you're talking about boo. yeah, that's pretty bad too Krillin goes wandering by and wonders what's got Piccolo's antennae in such a knot. Well, the whole Boo thing, where his ki's changed and now he's got a hot new bod that's super great for fighting and a soul just completely full up with hatred. He fears that this is.... i mean doesn't it at least somewhat depend on the participants? Piccolo hopes that it will all work out, but his expression says he doesn't really think that it will. It is an expression of Maximum Dissatisfaction. Even out on Shin's world, they can sense the change. Gohan requests a speed-up in the powering-up process and the elder kaioushin tells him not to worry, he's taking care of it. He's also reading a manga. i love those earrings on gohan with the short hair Asshole #2 is somehow still alive. He scrambles up the cliff and grabs one of the abandoned guns up there, then opens fire on Boo. The shots splash through him as though passing through water and Boo is as unharmed as the water would be. He laughs and does a bit more of the neck-cracking thing and then stretches himself like taffy, in the direction of Asshole #2. new boo has some... interesting movement styles And some interesting attack styles, jesus christ. He kind of.. turns into water and forces himself into the dude? It's fuckin' weird, man. Of course, the pressure is too much for Asshole #2 and he pops like a poked balloon. Sometimes I just end up kind of staring at a page for a while and not really being able to take in that yes, that's a thing that just 100% canonically happened, and this is one of those times. Someone probably discovered something about themself while reading this chapter and that's... quite something. The liquid rises up from the (unshown, presumably horrorshow) corpse and reforms into the new and upgraded black-eyed Boo. (Who also doesn't have a shirt, not even a pretense towards shirt-wearing like the rotund Boo's vest or Gotenk's weird half-vest thing with the puff sleeves. Why can't anyone have a goddamn shirt.) He notices Mr. Satan, who's peeking out from behind a rock and then kind of twists himself up a bit and goes springing off towards him in a pose that looks like he's aiming to backhand Mr. Satan. But something makes him stop. yeah. yeah, because that's the reasonable conclusion to draw Despite everything, Boo has recognized Mr. Satan... and, despite seeming to want to, doesn't kill/hurt/maim/otherwise harm him. Instead, he turns and zips off. and laughs. And takes a sharp upwards turn. Ohhhh, that makes me unhappy and worried, because it seems as though he has a target, a destination... a goal. someone get my son out of there please
Spoiler: This is what i do while waiting for gel electrophoresis to happen thing i drew: this thing i never thought i'd draw: this
Ch 487 Is Gohan ready yet? Are Trunks and Goten ready yet?? Will anyone see sense and squirrel Dende away somewhere where he won't immediately be slaughtered? (Humanity's End) I like how this started out as "oh haha fun adventure! magic wishes! dragons! bunny suit Bulma! lol perverted old men!" and now we're here, at the end of the human race. (Plus all the animal people, what happened to them? We never see them anymore except for the dog ruler of the world. Hope they're doing alright. I mean, right now, probably not, but in general, when there isn't a murderous pink bubblegum creature destroying everything.) This Boo can sense ki, and so went straight to the source of the most powerful ki in the area. he can talk! i was starting to think he might not be able to do anything but laugh. or maybe unwilling to do anything but laugh The smile disappears and Boo looks around, searching for something. Not finding what he's looking for, he orders Piccolo to "bring". When Piccolo doesn't immediately understand, he repeats his order at full volume. hey you know what? fuck you, boo, for hurting my son's ears Bring what, exactly? does he share a continuity with original, nice(r) boo? obviously he has some memories or feelings or something from him, because he recognized mr. satan and he remembered that there was supposed to be someone strong to fight him, but it's hard to say for sure how much/how strong any of that might be. on a different note, that's a lot of words. he's retained/gained some of boo's increased facility with language? Chichi, Bulma, Videl, and Chichi's dad (Gyuumaou?) come out to see what the heck that voice was, and of course are confronted with the horrific scene of new Boo. Piccolo tries some negotiation. (Good luck, man.) Yes, the ones that Boo's looking for are here, but they're sleeping. Boo demands that they be woken. Piccolo counters with the suggestion that they'll be stronger if they're allowed to sleep longer. what is up with this version of boo and his neck, he's always fuckin' twisting his head all around and cracking it and junk. maybe it's just having a neck in general, nice boo didn't have much of one Well, shit. Piccolo has to fall back on something he doesn't feel super great about doing, but, well, he's gotta buy some time. yup. Boo's reaction to this is... unsettling. He chuckles and prowls around the perimeter of the Lookout, staring over the edge. Everyone watches (and some follow at a distance), mystified. When he's made the full circuit, he approaches Piccolo (now official diplomat as well as official babysitter) with a smug smile. oh, this boo is tall He raises one of his arms and flares with power. Bolts of ki fountain from his hand and rain down on the Earth, striking down the remaining people on Earth with absolutely terrifying precision. All those people who thought maybe they were safe, that maybe they'd managed to escape the destruction. People who maybe didn't even know they were in danger. Killed in an instant. dende................... The humans are dead. It's time to fight. i'm in too deep i'm having genuine 100% real actual anguish about this ...Fine. Piccolo will get the ones who will fight Boo. But they need an hour to prepare. Boo considers. An hour? How long will that take? piccolo is so talented he can make clothes and hourglasses Boo watches the sand trickle through and is mightily displeased, but Piccolo still has at least one ace up a (nonexistent) sleeve: Mr. Satan's daughter wants him to wait! He points to Videl, who of course has no idea what's going on, but Boo says she smells like Mr. Satan, and decides to wait. Only for an hour, though. Then everyone's dead, whether they're related to Mr. Satan or not. He hunkers down in front of the hourglass to watch the sand fall. Piccolo takes Krillin aside and tells him to turf Goten and Trunks out of bed and shove them into the HTC (oooh shit man, the HTC is back in action). In an hour, they can train for 15 days, and they'll need it, because they're not strong enough as they are now to face this new version of Boo. oh hey guys glad you escaped the death beams! Mr. Satan, who has for some ungodly reason taken of his shirt too, wonders what the sudden fireworks were all about. So that's a grand total of at least 3 people on the planet itself who managed to not get killed/be spared by Boo's attack.
Three things: 1. New Boo is super creepy 2. Gohan is growing up real nice 3. Forget the Dragonballs, this whole series should really have been called Piccolo and the Terrible, Horrible, No-Good Very Bad Day oh, 4. Mr. Satan + puppy = d'awww
Ch 488 protecting dende just becomes more and more crucial as these chapters go by (Return to the Room of Spirit and Time/Trunks and Goten Enter the Room of Spirit and Time) Shin notices something big just went down on Earth. it's... a bit weird that the dragon balls can do things that apparently even gods can't do. i am guessing, but it doesn't seem like shin could just go off and bring everyone back to life right now. maybe it's less a power thing and more a "this is the order of things and you shouldn't go messing with stuff that goes against the natual flow of life --> death" thing. was boo only an issue because of the threat to the entire universe? like, it certainly doesn't seem like anyone really cared when frieza was running around killing many multiple planets' worth of life The Earth itself is still intact, and not every human/sentient being on the planet is dead, which is better than the alternative, but still, this whole situation is pretty fucking dire. Shin doesn't know how Boo managed it, but manage it he did. Gohan overhears the conversation between Goku and Shin, then turns back to see the elder kaioushin still reading his manga and making 0 perceivable progress in unleashing Gohan's latent potential. Gohan thinks they should have been finished with this ages ago, and the elder kaioushin looks up, wondering what time it is. Must be taking so long because Gohan had a ton of latent power. hell yeah! angry gohan!!! Gohan has Had Enough. Power radiates out from him as he finally snaps. goku's halo is gonna blow right off! Gohan launches into angry speech about how he'll never be able to beat Boo if the old man keeps falling asleep, but halfway through he runs out of steam as he realizes something is definitely different about him. All that power wasn't there before. (Or rather, it probably was in some form or another, somehow, but now he has access to it.) The elderly kaioushin tells him to sit back down, he's wasting time, and a very contrite Gohan does. i'm surprised the manga didn't get blown away the very best shin expression Meanwhile, Boo is still watching the hourglass. Trunks and Goten are awake, but not in the HTC yet, and they sneak a look at Boo, who's gone through some changes since the last time they saw him. They also see Chichi approach Boo, which, oh no. Don't do that, Chichi, that's probably a very, very, very bad plan. Oh lords. She slaps Boo. (And I put my actual physical face in my actual physical hands.) chichi i get it but holy shit what are you doing stooooooooop Boo tells her that she's an egg, and then turns her into one. Well fuck. He then steps on the egg and goes back to watching the hourglass. Well fuck. Of course, Goten's immediate thought is to run out and fight him, but Piccolo stops him. They can bring his mom back, but only if Trunks and Goten can manage to defeat Boo, and they won't be able to do that unless they make use of the time they have and train as hard as possible in the HTC. Trunks chimes in too, encouraging Goten. They enter the HTC, and at first Trunks is more concerned with their food options. Of course, Goten is much more focused on training because he has some pretty big and personal stakes in winning this fight, maybe more so than Trunks right now. there ya go Outside, Videl approaches Piccolo to ask about how Boo knew her dad. Piccolo explains and gives Mr. Satan way too much credit in his "strategic motives" and declares him a true Champion of Earth. i love videl Boo is getting increasingly fed up with waiting, and finally he, like Gohan, reaches the end of his patience. He destroys Piccolo's hourglass, shoots a beam through the Lookout (just because fuck everything, I guess) and demands to fight. Now. poor fucking piccolo. probably by now he's come to accept (at least to some degree) that yeah, he's not going to ever measure up to any of the saiyans now, and his greatest uses are... administrative? like that's not quite the word i want but it gets close enough to what i mean. but he's in a position where he has to manage everything, try to do the best he can to a) get those who have a chance to defeat boo to a point where they have the best odds of doind so possible, b) protect the people that he can, and c) make some hard fucking decisions (like sacrificing the rest of the human race to gain more time). i dunno, i just feel for him. there's a lot riding on what he does even though he's not the one that's doing the actual fighting. someone give him a cat after this is all over, i think he'd like it Piccolo leads Boo off, and the surviving people kind of trail after them, wondering what's going to happen. hmmmm. hmmmmmm. hmmmmmm. hmmmmmmmmmm
Well, when I said "right now", I wasn't really thinking temporally right at that second in the chronology of the series, but at kind of a removed general time. I realize that doesn't make much sense with the actual meaning of the phrase "right now", but I tend to be more ramble-y in the screen cap comments than in the main "body" text and I don't usually edit those comments as much, so things like that slip through.
Ch 489 i know it's all i talk about but should not dende at least leave the immediate area??? the more he doesn't GTFO, the more my level of cortisol rises (The Confidence of Gotenks!!) Fair warning: this may go into multiple parts. So why might Piccolo be planning to have Boo fight Gotenks in the HTC? my poor boy :( :( :( i don't exactly what being a guardian of a planet entails, but at the very least a dedicated guardian (which i imagine dende to be, although of course we don't get to see much of his guardianship in times of non-threat) is going to be very concerned with the planet and everything on it, and to lose all of the people in a matter of days, and to have the rest threatened as well..... must be bad Bulma, of course, worries about what will happen to Trunks and Goten in that case. They can be revived/rescued with, of course, the dragon balls, so there's no need to worry. (I'd still be worried.) Yamcha wonders why Piccolo's taking the long way to get to the HTC; to buy time, of course. woahoho that's a dangerous game you're playing, piccolo Inside the HTC, unaware of what's happening outside, Trunks and Goten have managed to reach a level beyond super saiyan. Trunks is sure they can win now and that everyone'll be super impressed by their exploits. Goten seems to be in agreement, but he's exhausted. Trunks admits that maybe it has a weakness: they can only keep it up for five minutes. On top of that, they unfused at the end of it. Now Goten takes on the role of extreme surety: five minutes is all they need to finish off Boo! Trunks isn't quite happy with that, though. It's not... exciting enough. He's got an idea to make things more exciting, though. ... . . . just because you're cute doesn't mean i don't highly disapprove of this plan But they're kids, and they think it's a great plan. They agree: they're gonna go through with it. And then they get a call from Piccolo. * squints * i though... there couldn't be any communication between people in the chamber and people outside of it? and wouldn't the time dilation make it weird too? like if seconds are passing for piccolo, minutes are passing for trunks and goten, right? oh well i guess i can't expect toriyama to have things be consistent or make sense In any case, somehow this all works and Piccolo explains the deal. He's going to try to delay Boo for about a minute, so Trunks and Goten should use that time (~6 hours) to rest up for the fight. Heh, 6 hours? That's more than enough! Goten thinks Piccolo will be real shocked at how good they've gotten. They hurry off to bed. oh my god piccolo Finally though Piccolo leads Boo to the entrance to the HTC. i try not to just take caps because there's a good piccolo face, but, well, here we are. i can't always live up to my ideals They enter and he shuts the door behind them, knowing there's a good possibility he'll have to destroy it and be killed in this room. Boo calls the HTC a "funny place" (true) and exits the little portico area, to see Trunks and Goten standing there, ready for fusion. * puts face in hands for the second time in as many chapters * Boo asks Piccolo if they're the ones and he says yes. oh piccolo. Trunks is extremely disappointed that Piccolo's apparently the only one who's gonna watch the fight. Boo is extremely disappointed that he waited to fight these two pipsqueaks. Or maybe "angry" is a better descriptor for how Boo feels. Trunks gives a metaphorical shrug and tells Goten they should make the best of a bad situation and proceed with their plan.
