He will get his lost overturned because of the Frost cheating part. Beerus will argue for it since they're down a player anyway.

Our heroes, setting the rules and then cheating out on it. I guess I have to see the episode for how Frost was exactly cheating as I don't think the rules were that strict.

At least Champa is still a pure boy after the betrayal by the coward Frost the Frieza.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

Are you guys watching episodes or reading fan translations? If the latter, do you have a source I can catch up with or is that filez?

Almost everyone here watches fansubs. Dragon Team Subs are the best of the groups available. You can find it where people tend to find anime illegally and such. I don't believe English Super is licensed yet and is certainly not available so it's kinda grey anyway.

I watched to a point when Frieza first showed up but got frustrated with Krillin forgetting his decades of experience after kicking minion rear end in the movie, but it seems like it caught up to the manga at some point. I'll probably hold off for a long while and binge watch it later, but I do like seeing the manga art from time to time.

Speaking of, SSJ3 Adult Gotenks from DBM looks really great. Though with recent developments, I wonder how this is all going to play out..

It really is a good anthem. I recommend that every country on earth adopt it as their own, changing the first couple of words as required.

Goku can't come back because he got ringed out. That stood once they vacated Frost's disqualification.

I want to believe that Vegeta is gonna go off and sweep the rest of the tournament.

I was hoping for a God ritual between the avatars and a reasoning for Beat becoming Super Saiyan God, but apparently he just...can. After they bothered putting his first Super Saiyan and SS3 transformations on video.

How disappointing.

The Heroes ads have always been amazing though. They're what Xenoverse 2 needs to be, just batshit insane combos of stuff happening in time periods it shouldn't and fights that make no sense but are so cool we can ignore that. Plus Super Saiyan 3s everywhere.

I mean, Xenoverse kind of had to be at least part rehash, because the whole hook was that your OC DONUT STEEL could participate in all the big DBZ moments.

Xenoverse's custom outfits were awful too and they missed a bunch of gimmes for outfits that were non specific to any characters.

Like, how do you make a Dragon Ball game for custom characters and not include the Cell era Saiyan armour that Gohan, Goku, Trunks and Vegeta all wear?

Xenoverse 1 was a good base and theoretically at least, could be made to be something much better if they listen to fan feedback.

it was really weird how they gave vegeta the armour he at the end of the frieza saga but neglected to give him the one he wore for the entire cell saga.

Uh well actually Vegeta would have taken both of them. He would have needed one for his second training session in the Time Chamber of Hyperbolic Spirits and Room, and the the second one for the actual battle with Cell.

Don't even think of trying to out-:colbert: me. :colbert:

Okay I saw the episode now and I take back my earlier complaints. This was actually a twist and I'm still hyped for the future episodes, even if a little sad that we don't have a permanent Freeza VA on the show.

My biggest gripe was that the outfits had STATS tied to them! Goku doesn't wear his outfit because it maximizes his Ki output, he wears it because that's what the gently caress he wears and gently caress you for asking. I wanted to be able to make my own stylized character without having to worry about restrictions and you end up looking just like everyone else. DBX2 needs to disconnect stats and gear entirely, or let you use a "cosmetic" set over your actual set.

The stats weren't game breaking though. If you truly wanted to min/max your character you would care, but otherwise you can barely notice the changes they give. :(

Especially considering there were much easier ways to break the game.

I'd like a different art style, cause Xenoverse was not a very good looking game. The Raging Blast games looked nicer, might as well just go with that.
