Majin Buu, once known every bit the terror of the universe, is now sadly wasting away in Dragon Ball Super. While Buu is ane of the stronger characters of the series, the former villain has fallen by the wayside, ofttimes existence left  out of primal moments.

At one bespeak Majin Buu was able to pummel Majin Vegeta, go toe to toe with Super Saiyan three Goku, and humiliate base form Gotenks with no endeavour at all. There aren't many characters in the Dragon Ball franchise that tin can boast those same achievements. So when Majin Buu decided to join the Z-fighters, it seemed that he would become a force to be reckoned with if the Earth e'er needed his mysterious and overwhelming power.

Buu has taken a tumble in the rankings in terms of power in Dragon Ball Super, but he is still considered one of the strongest fighters in Universe 7. In fact, Goku and Vegeta invited him to bring together them in the tournament confronting Hit and Universe 6, and tapped him again to participate in the Tournament of Power. Unfortunately, Majin Buu did not go a adventure to showcase his abilities in either of those  competitions due to him failing the written exam required to participate against Universe 6 and being fast asleep before the Tournament of Ability even began.

Narratively speaking, it makes little sense to leave such a frighteningly powerful character out of big series moments, specially ones where he could make a difference, like the Tournament of Ability. To make matters worse,  glimpses of Majin Buu'south strength were shown when he completely wiped the floor with Basil of Universe 9'southward Trio of Danger just earlier the Tournament. Majin Buu also achieved a new class when he finally began to train for the commencement time in the series, slimming down considerably and gaining a ability boost not long subsequently fighting Basil. Information technology even turns out that Buu is something of a fighting prodigy, displaying a level of smarts never seen earlier in a fight confronting Goku, outsmarting the Saiyan hero to pick up a win. But, despite building so much excitement, he was once more denied the opportunity to show his truthful power in a serious fight - something not seen since the days of Dragon Brawl Z. Buu seems fated to exist purposeless - teasing relevance before falling dorsum into obscurity fourth dimension and again.

Although Majin Buu never got to fully explore his latent potential by the cease ofDragon Ball Super's Television run, the Dragon Ball Super manga is still continuing the story. With the inflow of the new villain Moro, Buu was once again called into action every bit i of the only characters in the cosmos that could stand up to Dragon Ball Super's newest threat. This opened new doors for Majin Buu as he gained the ability to admission the powers of the all-mighty Grand Supreme Kai. The Grand Supreme Kai was known every bit the strongest Kai for his considerable might and unrivaled magic before being captivated past Buu. The manga too revealed that Majin Buu was once a wielder of god ki due to the powers of the greatest Kai living inside him. This makes Buu the first Z-fighter outside of Goku and Vegeta to accomplish such a feat, with the two Saiyans only attaining god ki after a considerable corporeality of rigorous training with the gods themselves.

Majin Buu already displayed some new powers during a monumental battle with Moro in theDragon Ball Super manga. He fifty-fifty revealed the power to transform into the Grand Supreme Kai, displaying power never before seen in the series. Later being exhausted from his fierce clash with Moro, Buu has fallen asleep once more in an effort to regain his strength. The adjacent time Majin Buu makes an appearance in the Dragon Ball Super manga, it will surely tip the scales in the Z-fighter's favor every bit they battle Moro to save the Globe.
