I haven't watched this reaction but based on the comments I want to be clear. My videos are BOTH a summary and a soft-review. If you're looking for a straight summary with every single detail I'm not the guy for it because I don't seek to entirely replace the source material. My hope is that people can come to their own opinions and seek out the source material to learn more because I want the series to continue to grow as a manga as well. At the very least I hope you were able to enjoy it even if wasn't what you expected. Good luck with the content grind 💪💪💪

I meannn Vegeta doesnt really misread his opponents, he just overestimates himself constantly lmao

Carthus missed out the explanation for Goku's susanoo/ki avatar: When Vegeta arrives on Yardrat, the Yardraxians demonstrate instant transmission, cloning (without loss of power, not the multi form) and *gigantification*. It is then specified that perfect spirit (ki) control, which can be interpreted as a perfect link between mind and body, can allow for one to hone such techniques. Ultra Instinct is by nature the perfect link between mind and body, perfect spirit/ki control. Goku creating a ki avatar out of desperation is because his mind and his body both instinctively willed for Moro to be held down. Not to mention that Goku may have knowledge of the technique from his time on Yardrat.

My favorite arc personally, it has everything I love about the Z arcs all in one, it’s such a fan service saga imo

Carthu also nitpicked how Goku never learned Forced Spirit Fission back then but Goku literally says when he shows up on Earth during the Android Arc that he only had time to learn one thing and the Moro arc also states that Goku struggled to learn Instant Transmission so Carthu kinda just ignored all of that to make up a nitpick

to answer the Moro stuff with the dragon balls, both the scouters and dragon radar picked up the dragon balls bc of the rare energy they were emitting so Moro being able to sense the dragon balls after not only eating the planet’s energy but also Kakarot and Vegeta’s energy makes sense especially since earlier in the manga he said he couldn’t do certain magic bc he was too old

You watching Justin’s Granolah arc has my vote.

20:56 Carthu is actually wrong here. The Ginyu Force was on Yardrat before Freeza called them to Namek. If you recall, Goku escaped with Ginyu's ship by just clicking the "launch" button and having him sent to the first location inputted in the pod. This was because the Ginyu Force was supposed to conquer Yardrat before being called to Namek, and were going to go back once they were done with the dragon balls.

One thing i wish Carthu showed was Whis blocking Moro's attack with one finger

32:30 Carthu skipped the fact that Saganbo DEMANDED that extra power from Moro, and Moro sure did give it to him. I think you would have liked to know that detail.

I think the Justin’s Den video is a bit more comprehensive with more details about the arc & I hope you use that one for granola, but the carthu video is still fire.

We might gotta run this arc back, this video skipped so much context and filled in personal opinions over it. Moro Arc movie is the way

So did everyone judt forget when goku says "I only had time to learn this one technique (instant transmition)"?

For the Granolah arc, you should definitely watch Justin's Den video over Carthu Dojo's video. I love Carthu's content, but Justin Den's version is an overall better video for people who haven't read the manga.

If you’re going to watch the Granola arc video you should use Justin’s Den since he at least gets into the more intricate details of the plot too. Carthu kinda just runs through it while also putting in his own personal biases which is kinda meh

I'll be on stream for the granolah but I just gotta say you gotta watch Justin's dens vid on it. Carthu doesn't really do a comprehensive vid like Justin did for both Moro and granolah

The teleportation the Yardratians use needs to have ki signatures to move to, while the kais and there attendants can go where they want. I think that line might have been a bad translation, or someone forgot how it works, kinda like how Resurrection F forgot Shenron can make 3 wishes, but he left out after 2. It's supposed to be 2 wishes if he resurrects a large group of people

To explain why there are so many parallels to past arcs in Dragonball, Moro is meant to be a representation of all prior villains in one amalgamation. Its meant to further Goku's character and reinforce his principles when it comes to being a fighter. Also its pretty cool

Sages hate for Suprime Kai and his celebration at thinking he was dead is the funniest shit 😭😂

Kinda sad that Carthu didn't include the panels that showed Goku just walking in MUI and Moro taking 1 step back, getting confused as to why, then looking back at Goku into getting scared shitless. And also the dialogue between Vegeta and the Namekian Elder, which was a good interaction. I think watching Justin's den is better as its more comprehensive/full imo.

Goku has been to new Namek during the cell saga in preparation for the cell games. He grabbed denda to be the new guardians of the Earth.

Was waiting for this one

35:15 Goku went to New Namek to get dende to be earths new guardian that’s how he was able to find it so quickly he’s already been there.

A few things I wanted to say about the senzu moment Goku was NEVER trying to make Moro a good guy nor was this like Cell situation. He literally tells Moro he will never be free ever again. What Goku wanted was the keep the will of Merus and spare Moro. Moro failed the test so Goku killed him, it's as simple as that Everything Goku does is for the will of Merus. He tries to reform Moro because Moro begged for his life and reforming villains is the Galactic Patrol way Notice when Vegeta went to kill him, Goku did not intervene at all and it was only when Merus died that he tried saving him Goku tested Moro to see if he truly wanted to be helped. He first crushed his will then asked when he had no options left by giving Moro a senzu bean and defeating him to show even if he heals in prison he has no hope. The senzu bean was nothing but a successful test that demonstrates Goku's character development as a hero and his stances on morality

Moro basically tells Namek "Give me your energy! Scrumdiddlyumptious! My compliments to the chef!"

I prefer the granola arc despite the weird power scaling granola was putting in work lol.

12:00 to be fair, the dragon balls do emit energy. Its the main reason the dragon radar can find them when they are active. Otherwise, they would literally just be rocks.

You might wanna watch Justins Dens vid for Granolah, i personally dont mind but its for the people that dont like condensed recaps and wanna see a full length movie

It’s funny how at the start of the video he said the other dude was skipping a lot of stuff just for this dude to be doing the same thing😭

"OH PEOPLE KEEP ON WINNING ON MAGIC BULLSHIT, BET!!" LMAOOOO laughed so hard 😂

Moro, wishing for the prisons to get free, I understand how it feels underwhelming, but I actually liked it because it felt like a Batman Arkham Asylum breakout.

The dragonballs are magic. He can sense magic. Learned the dragonballs type of magic. He skipped over how he goes over some Namekians have mystical abilities similar to his magic. And he's learned it.

I feel like whoever said to watch Carthu instead just doesn’t like longer videos, man. :( The fights are such a major part of these arcs, and to see only the cliffnotes of them is very disheartening tbh. I will concede that his videos are edited better, and he's definitely got more charisma, but with Justin's Den, you are straight up reading the manga. He gives you everything you need to hear. From the jokes, to even the smallest details in the fights. Also he's unbiased and doesn’t pause to say "because plot" or anything 🫠 Edit: Even at the end Sage is like "you can't just speed past all that day" because...YEAH. THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS SO MUCH. 😭 I really would've loved to see his reaction to Goku fighting Moros massive fists, Whis flying down to talk to him, and Whis /casually/ stopping one with a single finger. Or Piccolo shooting ki blasts and allowing Gohan to use them as foot holds to parkour his way ahead and close in on his opponent. Or like. ANY of the Z-fighters battles against the prisoners. Like, so many smaller, cool moments happened that I would've loved to Sage's reaction on. I really hope he watches the Granolah arc through Justin's Den. I really do 😭

Carthu's RAGING hate boner for vegeta is annoying.

Just came here to bring up that the sensu bean thing was more a call back to Goku vs. Piccolo. Goku gave him the sensu bean to give him a second chance.

I mean the simplest explanation besides it just being plot of him being able to sense the dragon ball is that they are connected to the lifeforce of the elder so he can just be using that

Its crazy the Moro arc hasn't been animated. Think about this Super anime: July 2015-March 2018 (Less than three years) The anime was around less than three years but has been done for over *SIX* years. The Moro arc has been *FINISHED for over three years* now with no adaptation in sight

12:23: The thing about the Dragon Balls is that they do exude a unique energy signature, (or whatever the appropriate phrasing would be) this is how Bulma's Dragon Radar can track them. She explains this when Goku gets her help with finding the last Dragon Ball after he defeats the red ribbon army, at the time the last Dragon Ball can't be tracked because Pilaf put it in a case which is made to jam the Dragon Balls signal. At the time she theorizes that an animal had eaten it and because of that the signal was being blocked by the animals' innards and stuff. So technically it isn't too farfetched to be able to detect this signal if your proficient in magic since the Dragon Balls are magical in nature. (they can do far too much unexplainable shit to say they are scientific, like creating panties out of nothing or grant someone their youth back) However, I do feel it's a bit iffy here. Maybe it could have used more work to get that to make more sense.

man did even finish listening to the sentence before celebrating shins supposed death 😂😂

The creator of the video said Moro knew where the dragon ball was bc of plot yet Moro literally saw the same memory the great lord of lords saw in his own head💀 he probably saw the same shi when he killed that namekian Moro also let the prisoners go bc he had already planned out what to do also 73 had his powers Zeno also erased trunk’s timeline which included the grand priest and all angels if they were still alive why hasn’t the GP gone to find him

"Vegeta goes on a rant about not liking weird techniques for some reason" Carthu my dude its foreshadowing because this is literally the arc where he learns a bunch of weird techniques. Flew right over his head lmao.

Do a Granolah arc next, pls, it is dope and Vegeta gets a BIG highlight and character dev

46:30 the entire point of the senzu scene is to show goku learning from his time with frieza when he spared him and the moment he had his back turned frieza immediately tried to kill him he asked Moro if he would stay in prison if he left him alive but if he was at full power he would get the real answer because Moro would just break out again and Goku knows that he is still more than enough for Moro so he can afford to do this to see if he has to kill him to carry out meerus’s will

29:49 At least it wasn't Yamcha... so nobody died. 30:00 Oh no, Yamcha's about to get Yamcha'd

I remember thinking Goku was going to use Dragon Fist to hit Moro's head but even without it, Goku was something else in this arc. The way he grabbed Moro's wrist and Moro breaking his hand on Goku, it's all too good.

Justin’s video actually go in more details with the arcs whereas Carthu skims thru them and like others said, inserts his bias about specific segments so Justin’s videos are more better when it comes to summarizing the arcs

Goku may have known about Spirit Fission but was most likely in a rush to get back to Earth as quickly as possible due to Frieza having a headstart. As for using the technique on Cell, that would not work since Cell's Absorption is entirely different as he sucks life energy and not actually fusing like Buu. Also I don't think it would work on Buu either

I think you'll really enjoy the Granola arc

The yardrat techniques are also used by Goku (instant transmission) Tien (copies or anyone moving fast to use after images) and Piccolo (he grew huge against Cell Max and Goku)

Goku really went to base, squatted down to Moro’s bitch ass and said “have you… EVER trained?” THATS MY KINGGGGG 💯💯🔥🔥🔥

Skipping the roshi and z fighters fights is insane, I knew you would've like that one

This is actually not the first time we've seen Goku's Instant Transmission not work in the series due to lack of energy. There was also the time in GT when Goku was teleporting everyone on the planet to Planet Tuffle for evacuation. He forgot about Piccolo, so he tried to teleport to Piccolo to save him, but he couldn't because he was out of energy.

The best DBS saga is that of Granolah🔥🗿 >>>

Vegeta doesn't misread his opponents strength. He knows when an opponent is stronger, he's just too arrogant to care. The only exception to this was the Androids and that's because he couldn't sense their energy. Technically his first fight against Goku could also be an exception, but that's only because Goku stood no chance without Kaio-Ken. Vegeta is constantly shown to be one of the smartest (in battle) Z-Fighters, easily on par with Piccolo. If it wasn't for his Saiyan pride driving him to fight every enemy head-on Vegeta would be a tactical menace.

Little tidbit but that in the air gut punch Goku took his time setting up on Moro sent shockwaves so hard Beerus AND Whis had to look away cause of how vicious it was genuinely can’t wait till that’s animated along side have you ever trained

Your reaction at the end was priceless. When he saw Uub reveal then Goku create an avatar of himself replying “ What the fuck am I’m watching” Lima😭☠️😭☠️

this just goes to show that uub is going to end up one of the absolute most powerful characters in the series if they utilize him right. Lil' kid uub having enough power to push Goku back into MUI and create a literal ki avatar means that dude is probably gonna get some INSANE feats in the future

Moro was on track to be the best antagonist in the seires...until they ruined him by having him transform. Having a villain that uses magic to fight is such a clever way to bypass the god tier strength of goku and Vegeta. They could have even had piccolo be relavent again by making him lean into "Kami" and learn some Namekian magic or something to help fight.

If Bulma can create a device to track dragon ball energy then I don't think it's a big deal for an ancient wizard to learn how to sense their energy after collecting and studying a few of them.

I’m kind of annoyed you didn’t get to see roshis and the earthlings fight

This arc was peak except that one chapter where they said all the wierd stuff like "vegeta never overestimates his opponents"

Dude the uub reveal at the end was so good. I jumped out of my seat reading

17:35 Moro wishing the prisoners free wasn’t the issue. It was that the chapter ended on a cliffhanger and for 1 month fans online speculated and made theory videos wondering what Moro’s wish could be. If the DBS manga had a weekly release schedule it might not have been so bad, but since we had to wait a month the anticipation got people really hyped for something that felt kinda lackluster in the grand scheme of things.

I’m not gone lie brother( and this is just me replying to your beginning part about Goku getting so adept at MUI so soon after just tapping into it at the time of need when he literally needed to break his current limit to even stay in the fight) I’ve went back & recently re watched Dragonball at least 3 times in the last 2 years & boy let me remind you how freaky of a alien Goku is. The man at 12 years old pulled up on master Roshi seen him do the kamehameha wave ONCE & just pulled it out his bag like it was NOTHING no training no understanding of how to even use ki energy at all yet just pulling out a KW like it was nothing. Mind you I don’t want you to get the wrong idea I totally was in the same thought process as you thinking they should’ve flushed out the progress of him mastering the technique a lil more than they did & gave him more time before he fully masters it I do get that trust. However time & time again we have been shown since the beginning of this series that Goku’s lil freaky ass is just hella gifted when it comes to catching on to techniques really fast & making them his own. So it’s not in the realm of that’s just bullshi writing even though it can be perceived that way when 1. if you don’t really go back & peep his story you won’t even see that Goku’s body BEEN like that since he was a jit & 2. Their reputation for bad writing gave us all PTSD so we’re so quick to dismiss something as being possible like him being able to progress so fast with the UI/MUI technique. Yes I know it is a God tier technique but we gotta remember this isn’t Krillin Yamcha who are humans, to them that technique will forsho take probably YEARS to even understand & master which we seen Roshi do it for a min against Jiren in the manga but Roshi is literally a sage & that man is hundreds of years old so him doing it makes sense he had time to master his techniques his ki control his mind etc. However Goku is an alien from earth, so I just decided to look at it from that perspective that Goku is just one of those anomalies that adapts to things a lot faster than the average fighter God or Human. If I’m tripping tho tell me I’m tripping I love talking about this stuff fr ? lol also lemme go watch the rest of this video cause the Moro arc is GOATED IMO. No pun intended 🤣🙌🏽

Technically Kibito Kai had no ki left to teleport to Namek to heal Goku after teleporting between the Living & Dead Realms like 3 times which is vastly distant compared to most people Goku locks onto to compensate for teleporting unlike Kibito Kai, hence why he didn’t escape Cell’s explosion despite being super saiyan. If only he had a senzu though.

Dragon Balls obviously give off some kind of energy otherwise the Dragon Radar would never work. Moro being the ultimate magician and eventually figuring out how to detect that energy and track it isn't that crazy at all to me, so I go with option A.

When the Dragon Balls were first introduced (in the first chapter), Bulma explains that they emit a faint electromagnetic pulse, and this is what her radar pick up. So the simple matter is that Molo has learned how to track that pulse on his own. As for Pure Boo (Kid Buu), the reason why he has both Regular Ki and God Ki, is because, by absorbing the Dai Kaiōshin (Great Lord of Lords/Grand Supreme Kai) and the Minami no Kaiōshin (Southern Lord of Lords/Supreme Kai) he obtained their Natural God Ki. Core People like the Kais are born with Divine Energy, while mortal like Gokū, Vegeta and Toppo have to train in order to obtain it, by refining and condensing their own energy. Gokū Black SSGSS form is pink for that specific reason, Zamas has natural divine energy, while the same form has blue aura and hair when the user is a mortal who can tap into divine energy. When Boo split into two parts, the natural divine energy inherited by the two Kai, remained inside the Pure Evil Boo (Evil Buu) and later Pure Boo (Kid Buu), while the Mr. Boo (the Boo that resulted from Innocent Boo expelling the evil from within) was left with the Dai Kaiōshin persona within him, but not his divine energy. As for the Ginyu Force attacking Planet Yardrat, that does not mean there are more than Ginyu members, Vegeta himself states (when Goku came back from Yardrat) that the Ginyu Force was attacking that Planet around the time the Namek Saga was happening, this simply means that they had trouble conquering the planet, in fact there are abandoned destroyed city scattered here and there. A lot of people are also making jokes on how Molo is Boo and Cell combined, but the truth is that every Dragon Ball character, specially the main one, are all inspired by characters from the Journey to the West, Merus and Molo are based on Tripitaka and Sun Wukong, just like Whis and Beers are. Even the scene where Freeza kills Krilin happens in Journey to the West, when Sun Wukon kills Tripitaka's loved interest, destroying her from existence just to say to Tripitaka "I destroyed your loved one, where is you Buddha at? - What can you pacifist way do for you now?" because, just like Freeza and Molo, Sun Wukong things himself superior to everyone simply because of his power and longevity and can't be bothered to deal with inferior beings that can only live for few decades or so. When Sun Wukong was a demon, he also ate people to absorb their essence, which is why Boo, Cell and Molo are the way they are, they are all representation of what Sun Wukong was, before becoming the Victorious Fighting Buddha (which is instead the inspiration for Gokū). Also, just so we are clear, Gokū giving a Senzu to Molo is not the same thing as he did with Cell, because the motivations are different. Gokū gave it to Molo because, like Tripitaka, he things that Demons should be reformed and not destroyed, but when that fails, that's when the destruction is inevitable. This is so he naturally follows the laws of the Universe and why Vegeta fails time and again, just like he got punished for the way he dealt with Freeza when he first came back to life (in "Resurrection of F") because Vegeta acted like a Villain, Vegeta IS a Villain, he seems not to be because his target are other Villains, but if you look the way he fights and how Gokū fights, it is clear that Vegata heart is not in the right place. As for Cell, Gokū gave a Senzu not to try to reform him, but to help Gohan because he knew that the only way to awaken Gohan's true power was to push him over the brink, BUT failed to consider Gohan's feeling, because he doesn't like it when he looses himself to rage, because Gohan is not like his father, he has much more potential, but he's not a martial artist and relies solely on his emotional strength but when he loses himself, he is afraid of what can happen because he respects life (even the artificial kind − which is why he snaps when 16 gets destroyed in front of his eyes) and hates to kill.

“LEND ME YOUR ENERGY” thanks 😂

Can we talk about the ginyu force having more members is that mean freiza just didnt think he needed them or did they refuse to come i know toryama most likely just forgot about them being defeated on namek but still

I always like Seth the programmers description of the Moro saga and what he represents to Goku, about how he’s is the culmination of all of gokus past enemies.

23:25 Hasn't Goku been twice in the HBTC? Doesn't that mean he's permanently banned from it or he'll get stuck in it permanently or something? 27:55 Their power levels are so big, they can be sensed across the universe. It's how Goku can IT to very far off planets or how Kid Buu found the Land of the Gods. 52:01 Uub is the only Human with Divine Ki, so that takes his strongest untrained human status to a new direction.

7-3 is the Amazo of Dragon Ball, just as Moro is the Galactus of Dragon Ball.

@45:31 got me tweakin with that laugh, Loved the video bro😂😂😂

10 minutes in and I've got the idea that Moro is the result of the writers going "What if the enemy had a spirit bomb? What if the enemy WAS a Spirit bomb?"

If Bulma is able to use the dragon radar to track the Dragon Balls they must give off some sort of energy signature that can be tracked. it's not unbelievable to think that someone else figures out how to do that. It's like if people can sense Ki energy and use scouters to do the same, then using the dragon radar and or being able to sense the dragon balls isn't too much of a stretch.

Cathru makes me read the manga. Whereas some people try to replace it

23:05 I'm pretty sure the DBZ cannon states a person can only enter the Time Chamber twice, or they can only spend a total of 2yrs inside. I could be misremembering tho.

You got to watch Justin den like for the manga shit he the goat on recapping shit and being detailed with his recaps of the manga like moro has moments like yamcha has a moment of like fighting and vegeta doing a lot on yardrat like yeah we need to be on justin den like the people who say carthu dojo are like low attention span people for not sitting for an hour and thinking carthu dojo recap is better than Justin den recaps

I this arc there was a moment where Goku apologizes to Gohan because Gohan had to fight

The ad drop before the close up for choutzu is insane lmfao

This is the third time Goku has been pierced through the chest 😅

Bro didn’t get to see the part where whis stops earth moro’s punch with 1 FINGER

Would recommend justin's den, dont like Carthu's bias in a recap video

the manga is peak

1:19 “I beg your pardon?” 😂😂😂

21:19 hold on. what if super is prequel for GT. they do this technique while fusing into ssj4 gogeta.

I like the granolah arc even more than this one, both are huge Ws tho

Love this series big dawg keep grinding 💪🏽

17:35 Wasting the third wish so they couldn't wish away his magic was a smart move. Plus he wanted to ruin the galactic patrol's day.

Does anybody else want Sage to Continue watching One Piece ?

Why did bro say “younger brother” like he doesn’t know all angels are related💀

I can't wait for you too see the part in granola arc where... No spoilers allowed

I've watched Carthu's video many times already, but at 33:07 I got chills it's crazy

They did my boy goku dirty af with that legend of korra bullshit at the end. Like damn this shit aint even finna be canon to me anymore.

11:48 i was thinking like, havent the namekians learned from frieza to maybe NOT use the villages to protect the dragon balls? but as soon as i said that "moro can sense the dragon balls", well shit💀

31:40 Krillin: SUMMONING JUTSU: SON GOKU !!!!

(Last comment I promise) Carthu missed the explanation about why Oob had so much God Power: When the Great Lord of Lords fought Moro, he sacrificed his ACCESS to his God Power when he sealed away Moro's magic. This is why a few million years later, this same Kai who could fight Moro got folded by Boo. When Boo absorbed the GLoL, his dormant God Power was absorbed too. When Boo split, the GLoL's form, innocence and dormant memories went with Good Boo. The dormant God Power (for whatever reason) went with Evil Boo. Evil Boo could not access this power. On Evil Boo's (now Kid Boo's) death and reincarnation, this God Power was passed onto Oob. The GLoL then directed Oob on how to access his dormant God Power. The implications this has for the series: Oob, without training, has the potential to reach MUI levels of power. There exist Gods of Creation with comparable power to Gods of Destruction (perhaps in every universe?)

It was the waiting a month for that reveal than the reveal itself

To kind of be clear, piccolo was right about vegeta. Vegeta tends to be himself which is arrogant and tries to put himself over, regardless if they're stronger than him

The t.o.p Environment was all of the universes gravity on 1 stage so the tournament started the process for goku to have the Technique u.i
