Still doesn't make them gods even if its just a title that has to be given.Vegeta and Goku are already gods. Vegeta has 3 god forms and Goku only has 2. The actual gods, kaioshins and hakkaishins, don't even know UI. So knowing UI can't be what makes Goku "pretty close to being a god". So that paragraph makes no sense.
Zamasu wasn't a official god either, he just labeled himself one.





yes piccolo jr. and vegeta were villains but by the time they became regulars they were both neutral and on the verge of being good guys. but seeing everyone put aside their beefs and making room for FREEZA... who’s still an evil maniac hell bent on universal domination... makes room for a lot of great (and hilarious) interactions.
