Funny thing is, he was obviously awake when he allowed Frieza to destroy Planet Vegeta, A LOT of time after Buu's rampage, which East Kai must have informed him about. So why didn't he immediately go to Earth and destroy Majin Buu's orb? Given that the monster was still alive and had showed interest in killing his life link partner, Beerus - also given his personality - should have IMMEDIATELY dealt with him. And let's not get started with why the Kais didn't think about waking him up to fight Buu to begin with. He's not very kind with those who disturb him during his naps, true, but the Kais (for obvious reasons) shouldn't be worried about getting hurt by him.

Beerus' character is totally fine, the problem is they gave him WAY too much screen time. As one of the most powerful beings in the multiverse, his presence should carry a lot of weight and be used sparingly. They should have used his nonchalant and gluttonous attitude as a reason to keep him off screen, and allow Whis to interact with Goku and Vegeta by himself while Beerus is off doing things he finds more worthy of his time. There's no reason a god of destruction should have been turned into some guy that just casually hangs out with mortals all the time because he has nothing better to do. Narratively, nothing would change if you removed Beerus from 95% of the scenes involving Whis, Goku, and Vegeta, but his status as a character to be respected would have still been intact. As a destroyer god, Beerus shouldn't be sitting around watching any fight he claims to not have an interest in who the winner is, he should be treated as someone who's above the squabbles of mortals, only appearing when his interest in a fight is genuinely piqued, whether it be because of the entertainment value he'd find in the fight or because the stakes or so high he can't ignore it. This way Beerus' presence during a conflict would signify that an event carries serious weight, instead of his presence simply sucking all the tension out of the fight because big uncle Beerus could just step in and save his friends.

But it really does feel weird during Resurrection F and Black Sagas, where we know that Beerus could end the entire plot before it begins because he is literally chillin with Bulma.

I agree. The cast of DB characters has gotten HUGE ... too big for an author to be attentive for I think. This was my worry when I was introduced to Beerus and Whis for the first time. Now they are great characters, funny and all, but it seems to me that Beerus was only good for the Battle of Gods movie and Whis does his thing teaching Ultra Instinct but that doesn't last forever. They're on the sideline reduced to chatter and - imo - they're better off just leaving now that they're job is done. This THING with keeping characters around for nothing has been going on too long and it cramps Dragonball. While I can understand wanting to keep characters out of nostalgia, it's a disservice to them doing nothing. Now it can be hard, but some of them SERIOUSLY have to move on (like giving Yamcha a NEW GF for once, it's sad how he's STILL hooked on Bulma) OR circumstances have to be written to keep them relevant.

Parunga apparently couldn’t teleport Goku to Earth against his will after Namek was destroyed but could do so for everyone else on Namek, including Piccolo and Vegeta who would definitely be WAAAY more powerful, with Vegeta wanting to fight Frieza and so would likely have been unwilling, and since the wish was specified to exclude Goku and Frieza, it makes me think at that time it might have been able to forcibly teleport them as well. The ‘rule’ really needed fleshing out. Now on situations where they don’t do things because of their pride, while I understand why they wouldn’t use the Dragon Balls to solve the issue, that doesn’t remove the fact they could easily use them to do so, and so the tension does a feel a little fake, at least in my opinion.

For me, Beerus made it painfully obviousd that even if there is a much stronger character around on a 'good' side, it's still Goku who gets all the spotlight. This overwhelmingly powerful character was reduced to be a guy commenting things on the sidelines and a comic relief. With not a single fight after BoG. Also you made a great point that Beerus and Whis caused a lack of tension. With that in mind, it's all the more ridiculous that DBS creators made it much worse with introduction of Zeno.

"They needed Whis as his involment was crucial for the conclusion" Actually i think he wasn't needed at all, they could have let Vegeta win for once in that moment.

Lack of Ten Shin? Yeah, he is missing a lot of times

Beerus is a case of a good character the writers don't know how to use. As you said, he's often there to be there, but his presence also means that problems can be introduced that only he's capable of solving. How ridiculously amazing would it have been that if instead of Goku literally pressing a win button at the end of the Black saga, Beerus instead shows up -- he states that the score between him and Zamasu is 1-1, and that he was of a mind to settle it, and that the circumstances now give him the opportunity to prove just how unfit Zamasu is to call himself a god. Zamasu, drunk on power, says that Beerus is no longer able to hold a candle to him, but after a brief struggle likely suggesting Zamasu is right, Beerus suddenly reveals he's been screwing with him and blinks him and the nightmare he's created out of existence, once and for all. In response to the cast's baffled reaction, Beerus dismissively reminds them that he's the god of destruction; there is nothing that has been created that cannot therefore be destroyed. This re-establishes Beerus' place in the story, and also as a threat should he one day feel the same way about any of the other characters -- because Beerus' ability is not limited to numbers, there's always a way he could defeat Goku if he wanted to, no matter how powerful Goku had become. It also downplays the "team pet" role he's been shoved into, a reminder that he's unpredictable and capricious, and therefore dangerous; he's _not_ the protagonists' friend. What would Goku do if Beerus decided that he was the latest victim of his whimsy? I'd argue that Trunks getting a win -- in a different fashion than Spirit Bomb Sword -- would have been a better way to do it, but supposing they did the shitshow they did anyway, a lot of people would have had different feelings about that shitshow if Beerus was essentially used the same way as Zeno is, but because Beerus has indirect investment in Zamasu's defeat -- Zamasu has led to his demise in Zamasu's timeline, and he's made something of a mockery of him in the process -- and because Beerus is still a regular feature in the plot, it'd be more satisfying to have him handle the matter, and to have a "refreshing" of his character and his place in the story. Most people loved his handling of his own timeline's Zamasu; a callback to that and to the fact that Goku still has a tangible background threat would have been looked upon largely favorably, I feel. Plus, it gets around Dragon Ball's perpetual catch-22, of who the "strongest" character is; what makes this Beerus dangerous is that it doesn't matter _how_ "strong" his opponent is. Not only is Goku unproven to be more outright powerful than Beerus is, it would imply that even if he were, he could still _lose_ to Beerus. This also puts a higher emphasis on how Dragon Ball can best get around its catch-22, via an emphasis on strategy and exploiting an opponent's weaknesses; if Goku had to avoid the looming threat that is Beerus' win condition, how would he fight him, if he had to? These are the questions that get people having nerdy conversations at the proverbial water cooler. Beerus was the best part of Battle of Gods -- although Vegeta is certainly second -- and for good reason. But like many of Toriyama's characters, he was introduced for a specific purpose, and once that purpose was exhausted, so to did his role in the story. That doesn't mean the character itself is a problem; much like many of the now neglected characters in the series, if more was written specifically to feature him, instead of put him there for the sake of doing so, we'd be reminded of what was so enjoyable about him in the first place, and he has more going for him than most characters, besides; his status as an X-factor can keep him fresh and intriguing, but his poor utilization and token inclusions have hurt him more than anything.

He has IMMENSE power but he’s not entirely allowed to do anything, and EVEN WITH this power he’s still outclassed by angels and Zeno.

Beerus is my favorite. Your suggestion that he's like a father watching kids fight is spot on. Very godlike. I love that perspective while the world is on the brink of destruction.

I agree with him removing tension from most scenes, but I loved every scene he was in. He even elevated the tension in crucial scenes in the show. When he confronts zamasu, when he threatens to kill goku, and when he warns frieza after he trapped goku in the Hakai. I hope we see more of his serious side.

Personally, i like beerus's character. It is intresting along with his place in the db universe.....BUT HIS VOICE (so soothing)

I really like Beerus as a character. Somehow, "God is competent and can totally save you, but just doesn't care enough about you or your problems to get involved in your bullshit." seems like a new direction for Dragon Ball. I like it. I never felt like a cold and uncaring god watching over deflated the tension in Resurrection F.

The Alien Bardock wasn’t written by Toriyama bro. He wrote minus in 2010 and it sucked dick. Trunks had a backstory because it was necessary to explain what in the fuck was going on and it’s the one time Toriyama really got into someone’s backstory. Never before or since did he actually go out of his way to draw a person backstory, not with King Piccolo, Tao, The Crane Hermit, The Red Ribbon Army, Frieza, Dr. Gero, King Cold, King Vegeta, Vegeta, 17 and 18, he kinda drew Buus backstory but not in a stand-alone manga, it was just a flashback so ima count that too. I’m convinced the only reason he drew Trunks’ story is because it was waaaaay too much to explain in just dialogue.

Not really Too weak people cant make a diffrence to tension

This doesn’t stop him being my favorite character in the series

"Imagine how suspenseful Freeza's defeat of Goku would have been, had Vegeta been the only one left to settle things" Not very suspenseful at all. We know that Freeza's tired, injured, and burning through energy at an alarming rate. We know Vegeta's been training alongside Goku. Freeza had no chance, and we can see that when Vegeta casually beats him like a Freeza Soldier. Beerus wasn't the issue with that movie. The issue was Freeza's new form was a joke. We're told it's 'stronger than Blue', but it never really proves it, and in the end Freeza has to get in a cheap shot(in such a stupid way) to beat Goku. Freeza's power crapping out is what really killed the tension. If Goku had been backed into a corner, and required Vegeta's help to stand a chance against Freeza, forcing them to work together(ala Super Broly) this would have been WAY better. Removing Beerus doesn't remove how little tension Freeza delivers, when he's running out of gas, and has to get help from his henchmen to not get his ass handed to him any further.

Personally, I think the perfect solution for Beerus is to have him asleep for when he isn't needed. After all he is a cat, and it's already been established that he sleeps all the time. I think it would be very plausible for him to just be taking a nap so that he and Whis aren't attached at all times. I think that would take away most if not all of the moments where there's nothing for him to do in a scene but he's shoehorned in.

"He also provides a massive downside that Dragon Ball, and Dragon Ball Z never had to contend with. A lose of tension." I would say the dragon balls themselves did that plenty. You know, the things the series is named after? Someone dies? No problem. Just wish them back. Personally, I'd like it to be written in the show somehow that the regular dragon balls get destroyed/deactivated permanently or something, and the super dragon balls are the only remaining namesake artifacts of the show. I like the idea behind the super dragon balls. They're far more powerful than the regular dragon balls, yet they alleviate far less tension than the regular ones. The regular dragon balls, are the main casts play thing that they've grown to completely take for granted now, while the super dragon balls present themselves with a heavy restriction of usage in that you basically can't use them without the aid of the gods. The problem with Super is that they have both, Beerus (and Whis) as well as the regular dragon balls. I'd prefer Beerus to replace the regular dragon balls as the thing the main cast uses as a crutch. Because unlike the regular dragon balls, Beerus is sort of a wild card. He may not agree with you. He may not be your friend in a particular situation. He may choose to be lazy and not lift a damn finger. He may outright get angry at you and become your enemy. Where as, the dragon balls, you just gather them fuckers and wish for whatever the hell you damn want (okay, not whatever you want, but still...). The Dragon Ball franchise, as its name implies, needs to have dragon balls in them. In DB and Z, there were only the regular ones, so they couldn't be replaced. But now there's super dragon balls. If those were the only ones, the main cast couldn't use them as a crutch. There could easily be plotlines where the cast has to convince the deities to let them use them, which would obviously be met with great resistance.

Mbrace Then, the show’s name wouldn’t make sense anymore. Besides, they activated the dragon balls several times now that I checked up. So, Dende no longer being able to create more will be seen as convenient for the plot. And New Namek has still its set of dragon balls. Taking out the Earth’s Dragon Balls will just move the scenario to space. And if we remove them as well, then the title would make even less sense. The dragon balls should be the items around which the plot goes. You can’t do it with the Super Dragon Balls. Too big, too hidden in two universes, and limited by language. It worked with Zamasu because he was a god, but he still needed Zuno to know their location ( And we still don’t know how in heaven he moved those things across two universes ). Though, you can’t bring more evil gods out nowhere that magically knows about the SDB. Even Beerus didn’t know much about them while Champa was probably helped by Vados in that regard. The Earth’s dragon balls never removed stakes as they can’t do anything to beings stronger than their creator, so pretty much no one. They are meant to restore the status quo AFTER the battle, which we don’t know they’ll win.

That’s why the tension is pretty lost. Since we know Goku will win, there’s no tension. They need for us to make them hate the character. Hajime No Ippo does this right by making the characters lose in some fights, which makes us guess if they’ll actually win or lose, even the main character. Horikoshi does this right with My Hero Academia by making the characters have to escape the fight to win, or make us hate the villain. If Dragon ball made us hate the villains, the ending would feel way more satisfying. If Goku would actually lose or at least make us doubt that he’ll lose, then the show would have more tension.

I love Beerus and he is one of my favorites, the thing with his character is that he is suppose to be a guide. He is neither a villian or a good person. He is a god and his job is to keep the natural balance of his universe. His purpose was used well during the Goku Black arc. He was arrogant in the beginning of the Battle of Gods but but the time TOP rolls around, this tournament is used to make the gods closer to their mortals. Beerus was always indifferent to mortals but after meeting Goku and his friends he starts to see how important mortals are to the job he has. He eventually develops respect and he starts to see them as kind of like his children. It is unknown if he will ever be a full convert like Piccolo but being among mortals can possibly make him a better god of Destruction. The reason why Universe 11 is the best balanced universe is cause there is cohesion between kais, gods of destrcution and mortals.

To be fair, the Dragon Balls at least had rules attached that prevented people from being brought back from the dead more than once, so they didn't eliminate tension initially. But then Namek got introduced, giving the cast access to another set of Dragon Balls that got around that. And while that was fine for a one-off, the arc made it so that Dende was reintroduced and then he made a new set of Dragon Balls that basically said "Free come back to life card whenever you want". So now the only real tension is if Earth and Namek are destroyed AND Zen'o doesn't let them use the Super Dragon Balls for some reason.

Also the namikan dragonballs completely remove any tension whatsoever as the main cast at any point in the show can get 3 wishes. Heck even the frieza saga itself was using the namikian dragon balls to fix what happened in the sayain saga essiantly making any tension in the sayain saga really not matter. Since dragonball is a story we know the main character will prevail in the end. What we usually don't know is what will the cost be such as a friends death. Since the dragonballs remove the concept of death and destruction compelty from the show the only time the zfigthers are actually in danger is in super when the universe is put on the line. So really tension that came from the orginal series is self created because it isn't there if you actually understand how the dragon balls work. Also this isn't even hidden. The show directly tells you there isn't tension when goku directly tells gohan don't worry about killing people because of the dragon balls and piccloo tells super buu directly to kill everyone on earth. So really super is the most tension db has had since the sayain saga and rof is the same amount of tension as anh other saga. Actually more tension because frieza can just blow up the planet multiple times and than go to namek if the namekians try to help the zfighters. One thing I will say is that rof did try to force tension by having goku get knocked by a stupid Lazar in blue form where as vegeta had to lower his durabltiy just to get hurt by krillen. Multiple times in z mutliple things such as dende healing everyone drastically lowered the tension. I don't think having a lack of tension is bad as not everything has to be super danger all the time but if you don't consider it a critsim of z than it's not a critsim of super. I mean you could argue atmosphere but not tension.

@@Inviabledude45 I would disagree with the majority of your points. I think Z had a lot of tension in every arc and saga. I believe that your arguments are too heavily dependent on meta knowledge. For example, even if we choose to assume the protagonist will overcome the villain, that doesn't mean all of the tension of the story is loaded onto the cost of success (through side characters & other intangibles). Putting the protagonist into dire situations that look grim creates tons of tension, even if we know they won't cease to exist. This is because the series is about the journey not the destination. This is why Goku fighting Frieza on Namek, which is about to explode completely eclipses the Goku vs Golden fight in ROF. In ROF Frieza is not really taken seriously by anyone. Even when Goku gets shot he just gets a senzu bean and moves along. Compare that to how Vegeta acted in the Namek saga, where he was completely terrified of Frieza, and every engagement was a severe risk of death. If the main characters of your show aren't even intimidated by the villain then why should we be? As for the hypothetical suggestions like Goku using IT to deposit enemies into otherworld, we should probably just assume he can't or would not do that, since it never occurred. Cell had IT anyway, and maybe Buu would have destroyed it(?). It's also worth noting that the dragon balls have a long cooldown, and only work when the guardian is alive. If Earth were wiped out and then the guardian on new namek were killed then it might have even lead to an entire other journey to see if dragon balls existed on other planets (kind of like how GT went). Lastly, even if we say that the tournament of power had tension, its still only half of super, and a lot of it was fighting clowns that were unworthy of fully powering up. I still think it was pretty good, but comparing it to Z? It's no contest for me man.

@@Auxified what your talking about is atmorespere. Z had a more serious atmosphere and tone but zero tension. Super had more tension because beerus and their other opponents actually raised the stakes to the point where the namikan dragonballs simply wouldn't help the zfighters where in z even the end fight was won because of the namikian dragonballs. I mean at any point during the buu saga they could have just wished ultmaite gohan back into the fight with the dragonballs and win that way. Z creates fake tension for a more serious atmosphere. It's really the same as what rof did by making goku go down to a lazar( from krillen injuring vegeta the zfigthers have to actually lower their defense to be injured meaning goku just randomly decided be wanted to be Lazar level) the result is even though it leads to amazing moments like vegeta taking down frieza or the final spirit bomb to end the serious. The reason z felt more tense is because it also centered around the development of characters giving fights more meaning than just oh this character dies. For example even though the original fight with the androids with vegeta and goku's first super sayain fight with goku serve no stakes whatsoever they are still development moments for goku and vegeta which makes the fight feel more serious or more important than they really are. So overall what your comparing between super and z isn't tension but atmosphere and overall how they present the fights. Because when you look at the stories super actually has more tension because of who the villains are. Frieza actually knows about the namikan dragonballs and the dragonballs and as well as the ablity to breathe in space. Beerus is a litteral god and everytime goku talks to the omni king it could mean the end of the universe. It has more tension but the overall atmosphere is much lighter proably done on purpose because akriya toriyama figured that you cant really do a serious tone with ranking up states without it losing its impact. So even though super does rank up the states creating more tension it doesn't focus on this tension and more on how goku and the others react to it. Since vegeta isn't cocky and egotistical because oh my pride and goku overall is super light hearted it leads to a more upbeat atmosphere than serious atmosphere.

@@Inviabledude45 I agree with your points about atmosphere, but not about tension. I don't want to get too technical but it's probably important to do so. Tension is defined as the stress/strain from facing an opposing force. There are definitely points of high tension in Super, like you mentioned when Goku first talks to the grand zeno, and even picks him up, but these moments are rare. In my opinion fights like Goku vs Majin Vegeta had some of the largest tension in all of DB, because of Vegeta's struggle with his own ideals & goals. The serious atmosphere amplified this tension, especially when Goku starts charging a ki blast at Supreme Kai for interrupting. Conversely I think fights like Goku vs Golden Frieza in ROF lacked tension because it was blatantly one sided from the start. It could have been very different if the plot wasn't simply that Frieza comes to earth and gets smacked down by Goku with Vegeta calmly watching (until the cheeky laser part). Fake tension is an interesting concept. I assume what you mean by this is that the stress/strain the characters observe from the opposing force is not "valid". For example, why does death matter if the dragon balls can just revive someone? I would argue that this is just a natural part of the dragon ball experience. For example there was no need for Master Roshi to dramatically nearly sacrifice himself to take out a weakling. You are right that fake tension in Z exists to make the atmosphere more serious, but I would say this is just a flaw of the show granting so much power to undo negative outcomes, which certainly carries over into Super. In summary, I think that fights in DB should have tension, especially between the "main" characters. If they aren't struggling or suffering at all then it's kind of just a fight for fun, instead of a legitimate obstacle that deserves 100%. In this regard I think Super did alright, but Z delivers every time.

“His inevitable rematch with Goku” is the only thing I can really disagree with. It HAS to be Vegeta to beat Beerus after learning that Beerus made the order to destroy his home world.

They don't want to do that because beerus is a goal to reach. If they ever make a definitive limit for Beerus, Goku's goal is gone besides "get strong" If "Beerus level" is ever reached, he will probably just have a "true power" or just train and become OP again.

I love this video for all the editing and effort that went into this.

One thing i can say after watching more of Marks videos , is that he really goes in with an open mind. And gives props where others point at faults

(Haven't watch the video yet). In a series that was about reaching new heights in power, Beerus is the ever-present, unmovable, skill-ceiling that Super keeps banging it's head against with each arc.

Beerus feels more like a plot device then anything. He's just there to move the plot along when Goku and friends are in dire straits. Wish he was able to do more. Like a arc dedicated to him bring the main focus with Goku helping him. Would give him more character

Nah, I love Beerus sitting around eating ice cream while a life and death struggle cemented in a genocidal grudge rages on next to him and well BENEATH his concern. Far from removing the tension, I felt like it grounded the ballooning stakes which was absolutely a problem coming out of the Buu saga. I actually enjoyed the fight more because it was a welcome break from the tired "And now this is the powerfullest most undeaftable villain we have ever faced" routine. The most powerful character was not involved in the fight... at all, and that alone made it better for me. It wasn't the end of the universe, it was just a fight between two of dragonball's greatest personalities, separate from the idea that only the highest power level mattered.

It's like a D&D campaign: If you've got one level 20 character and everyone else is level 5, you either have to create something for that player to have to deal with on their own, OR find a way to sideline them altogether. And neither of those options is usually very satisfying for the development of the group as a whole.

Having Beerus killed via outsmarted would be the best way to end his character and provide tension again. I don't think he should be beaten by Goku or Vegeta directly.

Lack of tienshinhan has been the real problem since buu. To be fair though, super had tense moments as well, specifically the first tournament and the goku black arc.

I'm a week late to this video, so I doubt anyone will see my comment. But with that said here is my opinion, I lost all sense of tension with the Dragon Ball series long before Beerus was introduced. Simply put the name is why, the dragon balls were for a majority of the time in the series what took away the tension, "Oh, half the universe is dead because of Freeza? Just wish them back to life with the dragon balls.". When the Universe Survival Arc began, I thought maybe their will be tension and stakes, but then it was revealed the super dragon balls were a prize. I knew immediately the wish was going to be bring back the erased universes, and for one last insult lets have the Zenos say this was the only wish we would allow. So ever since Beerus joined the show he has been my favorite character, and his style of comedy that sucks the tension dry actually makes me laugh because their wasn't any tension to begin with. The "problem" brought up in this episode was always in my eyes the writers having a laugh with the idea of their being tension in the show.

He’s an awesome character who is too powerful to be allowed to impact the plot in any meaningful way. Unless they end up with some sort of angel rebellion he’ll never get to do anything important.

Those are the arguments I’ve always made and I get bitched at.
