Poor Krillin. Even 18 was making GBS threads on him after he got knocked out.

The only thing I didn't like was Nigrisshi getting tossed out like he was fodder after getting a whole scene to himself. Even if he's weaker than Vegeta I expected him to fight someone else, or at least throw a punch. I guess he was a red herring, but he didn't do anything to be that.

The scene with Nigrisshi was just to introduce Universe 3. Since they already went over the robots' lame survival tactics it would have been boring to play it straight during the tournament of power. So we just skipped directly to the "Martial Artist's Superior Tactics Trounce Nerd's poo poo" portion.

I love how U3's nerd poo poo amounts to an amalgamation of "you can't defeat an enemy that does that!" bullshit tactics that collapse the moment they're placed on a real arena against real, seasoned opponents.

I got sad because 18 would have gotten knocked out almost immediately last episode without Krillin to save her so I was hoping that she'd yell at 17 to shut up and focus on his own fight instead of talking poo poo alongside him. :smith:

I didn't really think about this until just now, you're right. That's pretty amazing.

Kale is amazing and gay. Caulifla is amazing and looks weird all buffed up. Cabba has the seed of a good character somewhere inside him, but right now is still pretty milquetoast. Hit is always amazing.

None of the other universe can compete on the level of 6,7 and 11. Most of them probably haven't even seen something on the level of King Piccolo. They were always going to fail to the actual stars of this chapter and its just sad.

Also whether or not Kale is gay for that Cailiflua or not, I want that poor girl to get out of her emotional damage and fight for herself too like her Big Sis probably wants. Right now all she probably views her Berserker power as is something that her boss would find useful, but she's hopefully more than that.

I wonder if, since the Manga is basically the Goku show, it will weaken Kale's moment of glory so Goku fans can get a hardon. Almost instantly, the manga will become "true Dragonball" to all these fans and proof that "Girls are icky and bad at fights and my fat, shut-in rear end can win in a battle against any girl and excuse me while I take my ashtma medicine then pound down four triple baconators with bacon fries and a 167 oz coke."

Kale and Caulifia both grow as people and as warriors: Kale masters the Legendary Super Sayian State and surpasses Broly. Caulifia achieves Super Sayian Blue.

Then, they are both erased from existence.

$10 says that someone wishes the universes back, Zen-chans go "ok cool we're fine with that this was so fun" and then the Grand Angel loses his loving mind, cue Angel Saga

Yeah, between Kale's super anxious behavior, Cabba taking on the role of student and insisting on Vegeta being his master/senpai, and all three of the U6 Saiyajins being rail-thin and fairly small, that's why I'd guess they're between 16-19 years old. With the exception being Kale in her Berserker form.

I mean, the Saiyajin race doesn't age anything like humans, so who knows. Vegeta and Goku are apparently "old men" but look like they're in their prime physical condition, and the same could be said for Future Trunks, who was, what? About thirty years old?

Goku is 43/44 years old right now, since he was born in 736 (Jaco retcon) or 737 (original date).

By shonen standards, he's really old.
