Despite being killed at the cease of Dragon Ball Z, Kid Buu is nevertheless impacting the series all the way into Dragon Ball Super'due south manga.

When Kid Buu offset appeared millions of years ago, he fought against the various Kai who served during that era.

Grand Supreme Kai getting captivated turned out to exist the best possible effect short of actually defeating Buu, equally his chivalrous nature subdued the villain. Leashing the previously unrestrained chaotic evil, GSK's existence every bit part of Majin Buu weakened the monster. In a signature confusing plot twist, the evil remaining in Skillful Majin Buu eventually manifested into the aptly named Evil Buu, who re-absorbed the Good Buu and became the host torso that would eventually revert to Child Buu again.

When Vegeta removed Proficient Buu from inside Evil Buu, there officially became 2 Majin Buu. The Super manga has confirmed that Grand Supreme Kai however exists inside of Good Buu. Free of the evil that used to inhabit Proficient Buu, GSK can fifty-fifty "switch places" with Buu, regaining his original appearance and control of their body for a brusk time. TheSuper manga reveals that even earlier Kid Buu appeared millions of years ago, GSK fought Moro, an ancient, evil wizard.

It'southward unclear if GSK was unable or unwilling to repossess his lost god power from Uub, or even if there's any of information technology left later on using it to assist Goku.

Kid Buu and Grand Supreme Kai's fates appear to exist forever entwined thanks to the monster'due south absorption of the Kai. Ii halves of a whole, even with Kid Buu now reincarnated as an Earthling, the power unleashed with their reunion in the Supermanga was the deciding factor in the universe-saving battle against Moro. The evilest monster to always torment Universe 7 and the former Supreme Kai are the most unlikely of pairings, but their fateful run into eons agone has shaped (and saved) the entire universe as our heroes know information technology.
