Hot take: I don't like Uub.
This is something I have been wanting to say for many days, but today is the day.
I want to preface by saying I do know the lore and don't you tell me I can't read, like most Dragon Ball fans say that we can't. Therefore I know exactly what I am talking about.
His redemption
It has become a common thing for Goku to try and redeem villains and turn them into good guys, but with Uub's case it's complete lazy writing. Unlike with other former villains such as Piccolo and Vegeta, Uub had no character development whatsoever. Tell me how this is even a redemption when you only became good because of a WISH Goku made to Shenron? Heck, even Omni-Man's redemption is more logical than this.
Him and Kid Buu should not be the same person.
The biggest problem with Uub's existence is, he is a human, whereas Kid Buu is a Majin, two very different races . When Goku wished to Shenron to bring him back as a good guy, NOWHERE did he mention to make him a human. This furthermore brings me to another point.
His power level shouldn't even exist
This fact has been bugging me and leaves me question. Where does he even get that much power for it to be enough to help Goku defeat Moro?! He never trained before this moment in his life, he is just a human so he shouldn't be that strong compared to other humans. Tell me, WHERE?! You guys might say because of his link to Kid Buu, even then, it still shouldn't be possible, because his power level in the Buu Saga is far lower than for what is required against Moro.
Finally, his appearance to the plot
Dude I just how for most of his life he has been absent from the rest of the cast, then ONE day, just out of sheer luck, he appears to save the day.
I hope y'all read my rant on why I hate Uub, please leave down your opinions if you agree with me or not.
