Even though Dragon Ball anime is still on a break right now, fans are committed to imagining where the franchise could be headed next. Many expansions were introduced to the Dragon Ball universe, and one of them loved by many fans is the God of Destruction role.

Since the appearance of Lord Beerus to fight Goku in Super’s first arc, fans are theorizing that the series has been slowly preparing and testing Goku for one end purpose: becoming Beerus’ replacement as the God of Destruction for Universe 7.

Multiple visual odes have showed up since this theory was made public. A lot of them were very creatively produced with a lot of insight. We have selected a pretty good ones to show you.

Another artist elaborated on this further by visualizing what it would look like if Goku had all of his Super Saiyan auras and colors stimulating simultaneously. You can examine this sleek version in the tweet below.

I've had this idea to cover every aura of Goku's transformation at once, and finally put the idea into action!

Compared to the usual crop of Ultra Instinct-infused depictions, this concept of God of Destruction Goku is much more novel and fundamental. This particular version shows the Super Saiyan God coloring of Goku. But it has definitely been incorporated with the spirit of Beerus, considering Goku’s bored look and the return of his Saiyan tail.

When you think about it, it’s actually a detailed and interesting theory of what Goku would be like as a God of Destruction. Having a real responsibility that has spiritual parameters, laws, and dreadful consequences would be a tremendous change to Goku’s roaming brawler lifestyle. However, it wouldn’t make Chi-Chi any happier that Goku finally landed on a real career path and wouldn’t be residing on earth anymore.

Fans now question whether Goku or Vegeta would be the right one for the God of Destruction job. This controversy has led to debates among fans as to who is the better candidate. We believe Goku would make a better candidate but fans have a different opinion.

First, a lot of fans believe Vegeta would be the one best fit for the job, but given the Saiyan Prince’s personality, that may not be the most suitable idea. Goku would be the most uncertain one to take the responsibility, which is exactly why Grand Zeno may think he’s the perfect candidate for the job.

Stuck at home due to the global pandemic situation? If you have got time to kill, and you’re an anime lover, this article is for you! We’ve collected the five best anime series that you can watch while at home on Netflix. We will explain briefly the storyline of each Anime series to rouse your interest. So without further delay, let’s get started with our list.

1. Beastars

One of the most interesting anime titles, the Beastars is based on the manga series of the same name written by Paru Itagaki. The resemblance to the famous Zootopia is uncanny. This Netflix original anime series features a predator and a prey.

Tensions continue to rise between the predator and prey while an alpaca, student of Cherryton Academy is murdered. On the other hand, the timid wolf, Legoshi has to control a new set of complicated feelings for a dwarf rabbit called Haru.

2. Fruits Basket Season 2

The Fruits Basket is a remake of the 2001 anime series based on Natsuki Takaya’s manga series of the same name. So far, season one has been very interesting which is why viewers are so eagerly looking forward to a second season. The series has made a comeback with another season in 2020.

Well known for its vivid characters, Fruits Basket has been a dependent on the shoujo genre for quite a long time. Season 2, aired in April is available on Crunchyroll and simultaneously dubbed on Funimation just like its first season.

3. Ghost in the Shell: SAC_2045 

The newest addition in the Ghost in the Shell franchise, SAC_2045, is Netflix’s 3D CGI take on Major Motoko Kusanagi and the rest of Section 9.

While the animation style is completely different from the early adaptations of author Masamune Shirow’s seminal manga, some loyalty has been shown to previous works, for example, the main voice cast of the 2002 Stand Alone Complex will return, including Koichi Yamadera as Togusa, Atsuko Tanaka as Motoko Kusanagi, and Akio Otsuka as Bato.

According to Netflix’s summary, the series features older members of Section 9 as they seize the appearance of a “Post-Human,” a living creature with extreme intelligence and physical abilities. 

4. Bleach

The Bleach anime first aired in 2012 and recently it has been reported that it will be returning on Netflix in 2021 with an adaptation of the Thousand-Year Blood War arc. In April 2020, seasons 4 and 5 arrived and are called The Assault and The Bount respectively.

There are a total of 16 seasons, while season 17 is coming next year. Thus, hopefully, we will have 1 – 16 on Netflix by the time of the next season’s release. As of now, seasons 1 – 5  are available on Netflix.

5. Violet Evergarden

It is a very light anime full of life lessons and message of goodness. A girl named Violet Evergarden is an orphan child who was working for the army because of her extraordinary fighting skills. But she was only used as a weapon. Violet lost both her hands after the war. She started working as an Auto Memories Doll, whose tasks was to write letters of the people with correct emotions and send them to their loved ones.

However, Violet didn’t feel much emotions. Now she is seeking to understand the meaning of the words ‘I love you’ which were said to her by a person she holds dearest. Will she ever be able to understand it?

A decade after it first aired, fans begin to question whether the cult Anime, Death Note will return with a second season. Don’t worry, we have got all the updates for you. Here is what we are aware of.

This Anime is based on Tsugumi Ohba’s manga series and previously aired in 2006 and 2007. The series sheds light on the story of a high school student who comes across a mysterious book, i.e. the titular Death Note. The book has the ability to take the life of anyone whose name is written in it.

The anime series progresses as Light Yagami, the high school student goes on a killing spree, taking responsibility and murdering those he judges as morally unworthy.

Unfortunately, he is corrupted by the power of the titular Death Note. Quite interestingly, he comes across a detective who has been given the task of investigating the death of those Light has murdered.

The Death Note anime is by far the only adaptation of Tsugumi Ohba’s manga. When this anime series was aired in Japan, at the same time a live-action film was released. Tatsuya Fujiwara of Battle Royale fame as Light Yagami and Kenichi Matsuyama starred in the film. After that, a controversial Netflix Death Note adaptation has also been released, plus a musical.

Is Death Note Season 2 likely to be released?

As far as we know, the Death Note ended with a pretty conclusive ending with the death of Light Yagami. Season 2 isn’t likely, considering the fact that much of the action from the original manga was covered in the 37 episodes of the Death Note.

Furthermore, consider the amount of time that has passed since it first aired. Plus, there has been no official word from Madhouse, the production company regarding a follow-up. So, we presume there isn’t going to be a second season.

You can find other Death Note Sequels

We know how much the Death Note fans are desperate for a second season. For the time being, fans can watch sequels from other adaptations of the Death Note. The Japanese live-action film series that we mentioned earlier, covers the events of the manga.

However, there is also a spin-off movie titled L: Change The World. Also, the second direct sequel called Death Note: Light Up The New World and a prequel miniseries named Death Note: New Generation.

Being in quarantine, while resting on a comfortable couch, having a bowl full of popcorn in your hand and coke at your side, watching some great anime series is not a bad idea. Japan nowadays is considered as the hub of anime series as most of the series are produced in Japan. These series are easily accessible on different sites such as Netflix, Funimation and Crunchyroll.
