To avoid the "Shonen Power Creep Curse" (Naruto, Bleach, etc.), the next step for Dragon Ball after End of Z shouldn't be bigger multiversal threats. It needs to be about technique

When you look at where top-tier Shonen inevitably end up, power creep ruins the tension. Everyone eventually hits reality-warping levels, and we lose what made Toriyama’s original vision so magical: tactical martial arts, weird techniques, and physical storytelling.

If/when they finally continue past End of Z, how incredible would it be to use the next generation to 'reset' the stakes? Instead of Goku and Vegeta breaking into new dimensional power levels, what if the focus shifts to Uub, Goten, and Trunks?

Uub: Has raw magical/god-ki, but has to learn total spiritual discipline.

Trunks: Tactical, combining martial arts with Capsule Corp tech strategy.

Goten: Limitless potential but doesn't want to just be "Goku 2.0."

They aren't trying to become Gods of Destruction; they're bringing the scale back down to actual martial arts philosophy and protecting Earth on their own terms. Does anyone else miss the era of tactical fights like early Dragon Ball and Z, and do you think this trio could deliver it?
