*** [[spoiler:Orthros, a Videl from an alternate universe, cranks this trope all the way UpToEleven. This version of Videl was trained by Beerus and Whis, defeated Majin Buu, and is capable of casually destroying the universe on a whim. Aside from having the same powers as [[LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex Othinus]], she's EvenMoreOmnipotent than '''Zeno''', to the point where she has killed ''hundreds'' of different versions of the Omni King.]]

* TheWorfEffect: The evil goddess Set has a higher power level than Whis and a flashback reveals that Beerus only barely defeated her by allying with the various {{Top God}}s of different pantheons.

* BigBadEnsemble: Over the course of the story, we are introduced to three contenders for the title of BigBad. Sentinel is a murderous android created as a result of Bulma's botched attempt at rebuilding Android 16. He seeks to kill the Z-fighters and take over the world. Kaiser is an immortal human who is secretly controlling a terrorist organization consisting of the Red Ribbon Army's remnants. He's equipped his soldiers with PowerArmor that makes one the equivalent of a PhysicalGod and has long-term plans for world domination. Lastly, we have Varax, a GalacticConqueror worse than Frieza who was originally responsible for Majin Buu's creation. [[spoiler:At the end of the God of Storms Arc, he captures Set and has plans to conquer the universe.]]

* LeftHanging: The author explicitly planned to write more arcs but abruptly cut the story off at the end of the Saiyan Invasion Arc while leaving several major plotlines unresolved.

** [[spoiler:Varax, a GalacticConqueror responsible for originally creating Majin Buu, has Set as his prisoner and has plans to conquer the universe.]]
** [[spoiler:Pan and Eva, Gohan's daughters from fifteen years in the future, travel to the present day from a BadFuture where Majin Buu has taken over the universe after merging with an android called Sentinel.]]
** Finally, there's the reveal of the story's intended FinalBoss: Orthros (aka [[spoiler:Alter-Videl]]). [[spoiler:She's an evil version of Videl from an alternate timeline who is bent on destroying all of reality after achieving omnipotence.]]

* UnusualAnimalAlliance: In Chapter 42, Ginyu (still trapped in a frog) is shown to have formed an army consisting of all the reptiles and amphibians living in Bulma's animal sanctuary. Said army consists of frogs, toads, lizards, snakes, and turtles. They are at war with all the mammals in the sanctuary, including mice, rats, possums, armadillos, cats and otters.

* NoMoreHoldingBackSpeech: Zangya delivers one to [[DarkActionGirl Hasky]] in Chapter 34 after [[spoiler:transforming into her Super Hera 2 form for the first time.]]
-->'''Zangya:''' When Bojack destroyed our home planet all those years ago, [[DespairEventHorizon I thought my life had lost all meaning and purpose to it…]] that any and all dreams I may have had vanished with the other three billion members of my kind. I thought that I was destined to serve under him for the rest of eternity… to remain a slave to his will, with no hope of pursuing anything more. I did everything he asked of me out of fear of his power and the cruelty of his wrath. But then I met someone… someone who not only had the strength to stand up to that monster, but someone who was able to free me from the prison Bojack had formed around me… and gave me a chance to find meaning in my existence… [[WorthLivingFor a reason to live]]. That person was someone who risked everything to open my eyes to the world and unshackle the chains of my heart… and he became the most important person in my life. It was only after all of that did I find my real reason for living.\\
'''Hasky:''' Really? And what would that be?\\
'''Zangya:''' ''[smiles]'' He made me realize that I could do anything with my life… that I could chase any dream and any goal that I wanted, so long as I gave it my all and had friends to support me every step of the way. I came to understand that as long as I have people in my life to cherish and protect, they can give me the strength to make any dream I had possible. ''[steps forward]'' [[DeclarationOfProtection And I'll be damned if I'm going to let the one person who made me realize all of this get killed by some blonde haired, wannabe goddess who relies on cheap tricks and thievery to gain power!]]\\
'''Hasky:''' ''[[[TwitchyEye eye twitching]]]'' Do you wish to test me… mongrel?\\
'''Zangya:''' ''[grins]'' [[AGodAmI You claim that you are some divine being from another world?]] Well… if that's the case, and you really are the genuine article, then I'll just surpass everything about you and take you down. After all, if a mere human can become a goddess, then there's no reason why a Hera can't!

*** [[spoiler:Orthros, a Videl from an alternate universe, cranks this trope all the way UpToEleven. This version of Videl was trained by Beerus and Whis, defeated Majin Buu, and is capable of casually destroying the universe on a whim. Aside from having the same powers as [[LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex Othinus]], she's a RealityWarper and EvenMoreOmnipotent than '''Zeno''', to the point where she has killed ''hundreds'' of different versions of the Omni King.]]

* MakeWayForTheNewVillains: The New Saiyan Empire is introduced capturing Sorbet and Tagoma before they can resurrect Frieza and killing them both.
* SequelHook: The fanfic ends with several plotlines being unresolved with the obvious intention of revisiting them in a sequel:

** In the Collector Arc, Kana is an alien freelancer employed by Frieza's former empire who tests Gohan's effectiveness as Earth's new defender.

Starting with the events of the movie ''Anime/DragonBallZBojackUnbound'', the fic completely diverges from ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' canon and follows Gohan as takes up his father's mantle learns to rely on his own power instead of being reliant on Goku to come in and save the day. As Gohan gets older, he meets new friends and fights all sorts of new villains.

* CaptainErsatz: Alter-Videl is a clear copy-and-paste of Othinus from ''LightNovel/ACertainMagicalIndex'', down to her appearance, witch hat, eyepatch

As Gohan gets older, he meets new friends and fights all sorts of new and exciting villains.

* AvengingTheVillain: Played with. While Paprika does want to avenge her father, Garlic Junior, she mostly wants revenge on Gohan for blowing up her home planet. Also, unlike most examples of this trope, she isn't out to kill Gohan and is instead content with defeating him and proving she's stronger.

** Zangya becomes much stronger than her movie counterpart, achieving a transformation similar to Super Saiyan and becomes equal in power to Vegeta by the fanfic's end.

She plans to establish her own intergalactic empire and arrives on Earth to challenge Gohan with the intention of proving herself to be the strongest Saiyan in the universe.
