ASK ME ABOUT KISSING A GHOST
Wasn't that obvious last week? The universe with the lowest rating was the one filled with nothing but assholes. (and a GoD who seemed okay but too weakwilled to actually do anything)

Bulma is one of the most powerful individuals on her planet.



It doesn't speak well of the moral fiber of universe 7, in my opinion.

goku gets called evil and says its "interesting" that he's evil. doesn't object at all. just wants to fight strong dudes

this is some real good stuff. goku's going down a bad path. i wonder if this is just to set up the multiversal grudge against him or if there's something more going on here

The tournament takes place over 2 days, I think the arena is going to be really huge. Like the size of a continent. Large enough that you could stay near the center and Hit would not have enough time to run to the edge and dump you.

Its 48 minutes, not 48 hours.

"Everyone come at me as hard as you can!" - Goku, Episode 81

I can't wait for all 70 of the opposing fighters to immediately swarm Goku and throw him out of the ring.

I know it won't happen, but it would be hilarious if everyone just ganged up on Goku and eliminated him right off the bat.

It was already established that the gods use a different time scale than filthy Ningen. Who knows how long a Zeno minute is.

also worth remembering that Zeno might decide to change the rules on the fly because he's a child and his whims will gravitate towards just wanting to see cool stuff. so who knows if the rules will all stay as-is for the whole thing.

The original measurement was 100 tak which Whis explained is 48 earth minutes. Are you just commenting without watching or something? Because this poo poo got explained.

Maybe watch the subtitled episodes that you can actually understand since clearly you didn't get the gist of the episode from that.

Only watching/reading a summary after is dumb but live without subs is always earlier than live with.

Three thoughts:
1. Knowing Hit, he probably still requires payment from Champa to participate in this tournament. Universe on the line or not, we have never seen him fight for free.

2. If my previous knowledge of Battle Royales are any indication, this match will be fun for a bit until THE BIG SHOW comes in and eliminates all of the non-Saiyans from Universe 7.

3. Definitely a good idea to leave Goten and Trunks home if there is no flying. They're bad at team work and they are the size of 6 year olds.

I think Raditz is the Raditz of Son Goku's family, given that he is literally a member of Son Goku's family.

Not as strong as you'd expect.
These are the Zeno/Goku Games, and Super Perfect Goku must fight full force or the planetuniverse will be turned to space dust. Someone in-verse will probably bring it up.

My own thought is vaguer. The Angels sometimes listen to Zeno, and sometimes just 'speak in his name', like they just know.

Telepathy? Or are they assuming? Controlling?

It took 40 years but that bump on the head finally killed off the last of Goku's humanity. Now all that's left is a monstrous Saiyan lust for battle. Zeno may be technically the villain but Goku's hardly less so as he doesn't care or object at all to how things are going.

Bergamo is a hero.

Krillin is going to win the tournament due to multiform and his Android family. Zeno will then realise that being short and bald is okay and drop his genocidal plans.

Agreed. Nature kills thousands of us ningen each year each through tornadoes, tidal waves, wild animals such as cave bats etc.

I think we should strike back and get revenge on nature, perhaps through some process of destroying the ozone. That'll show nature to gently caress with us.

If we could kill earthquakes we would but until then we'll keep building houses that can withstand them instead of just saying "oh well, it's nature" and watching people die. You don't defeat a villain for revenge, you do it to protect people from further harm.

There are no bears or wolves in my country because wise men decided nature could suck it.

I predict the arena is yugioh battle city sized and your starting location is 100% random. Surprised Frieza didnt get on team 7 in some kind of bs convoluted way. You get a villain from every arc as far back as post-red ribbon army and toei can keep up their obsession with that character. Hey more work for his voice actor.

Goku's only used normal Kaioken since he went x10 with SSB so it's fine though?

But that would mean he was holding back and that would mean he was lying to his friend, Zen-chan.

Goku would never do that.
