※NOTE：This article includes spoilers.
This time, I would like to summarize the story “Merus” drawn in the 42nd episode of the manga Dragon Ball Super.
Contents
The beginning is …
It begins with the Galactic Patrol Merus and others bringing in Majin Buu to gain the power of the Grand Supreme Kais to arrest the “Star-Eating Moro” again.
Majin Buu was in a long sleep, so Merus and his friends are trying to take him forcibly.
Goku and Vegeta think they are bad guys and defeat the Galactic Patrol members.
Merus thinks he can’t take Majin Buu as it is, so he uses a tranquilizer gun to put Goku and Vegeta to sleep.
Looking at this movement, Vegeta also thinks as follows, and I think that he is a considerable ability, but I can not read how much that ability is.
“I’m not weak at reading well.”
“Even though I got a sick, that way of doing things behind us in an instant …”
“It should be a considerable ability …”
Meanwhile, a robbery case occurred.
Meanwhile, a robbery case that violated the Galactic Law occurred, and there was time until Moro’s whereabouts could be grasped, so I decided to go to resolve the case.
Merus arrives and goes to catch the criminal, but the criminal Makareni brothers try to escape using railroad turnouts and tunnels.
Eventually, the criminal tries to escape with a spaceship, but Goku who noticed it can stop the spaceship and catch it.but …
In fact, Merus was also on the play, working on the engine of the spacecraft to prevent it from flying far.
Even Vegeta doesn’t know when he did the work, so I wonder if he has a considerable speed.
The identity of Merus
The story goes on, Moro builds up his strength and heads to Earth, while Merus trains Goku to complete the “Autonomous Ultra Instinct,” Whis visits Zeno‘s Royal Palace.
There, Whis meet the Grand Minister, and he begins to talk, “I have something to check about the rules of angels.”
The Grand Minister replied, “It’s about Merus, isn’t it?” and it turns out that Merus was an angel.
The reason why Merus is on the Galactic Patrol is that the Grand Minister said, “I sent my apprentice angel, Merus, to the 7th Universe to get to know the world and gain a broader perspective.” We found out that he was dispatched for the purpose of training.
After Merus
It turns out that Merus is actually an angel and is currently in the 7th Universe for training purposes.
Will he be assigned as a formal guide angel to some universe after that?
Answer is no..
In the first place, the life form of an angel may seem invincible, but it seems that “an angel who breaks the rules will disappear” and “without a trace”, and it can be said to be the only weakness.
There is a rule that “you must always be neutral” regardless of good or evil, but while working with the members on the galactic patrol, Merus also has “justice” in his heart. It seems that “feelings” have sprung up and “I don’t want to lose this peaceful galaxy.”
If an angel fights against something in the lower world other than training, it will be a violation of the law, but He think that Moro will erase this galaxy as it is, and He will use the power of the angel against Moro.
As a result, Merus disappears.
Updated in April 2021：
In episode 67, the resurrection of Merus was revealed.It seems that Shin, the king of the 7th universe, asked the great priest to make it happen.
It seems that the resurrection is not Merus, who has the power of angels as before, but the resurrection as a human being who has a life span and no power of angels, and continues to be a member of the Galactic Patrol.
