I liked when Goku sprouted arms out of his back after tien did it, he should do that again but with current power level x arms instead of like 103

That wasn't copy of Tien's attack but the black dude's move (King Chappa or something) from the preliminaries.

Super needs an episode devoted to Vegeta prepping for the tourney by brainstorming new attack names.

So a rehash of the Trunks and Goten time chamber episode?

Or just the DBZA Piccolo joke?

If you see Trunks absorb the power of a spirit bomb and turn it into a giant spirit sword and think "This is stupid" then I have absolutely no idea why you'd watch a show like this.

It was the perfect pay off for years of him using swords ineffectively (after you know killing a father and son on a day trip to earth).

the first few tournaments painted goku as a really clever fighter but dbz is more about hitting each other really fast and shooting lasers than it is about that stuff

which is why this tournament with rules that the heroes can't just walk out on is interesting. I'm not expecting goku vs jackie chun levels of fun and inventive moves but that's fine

Goku is ridiculously clever in a fight, he just doesn't really waste time coming up with goofy moves when his normal repertoire works fine. His cleverness comes from being basically a savant at seeing through his opponents' tricks and gimmicks so he can counter them with his own significantly more basic moveset. This is why the Hit fights are so cool, because Hit is functionally unbeatable with simple brute force so Goku has to do completely insane things like literally defibrillate himself with a ki blast after Hit kills him simply to try to figure out how to get around Hit's moves so he can apply Kamehameha to Hit's face.

And then for the finale he just powers up so much he can punch through dimensions.

That Super Shenron did not gently caress up Zamasu's wish, forcing him to keep swapping to different bodies until he finally got the right one as the Kai's anger grew, is a goddamn crime

You say about a series where a major character won a fight because halfway through he realized he's drawn without a nose so his opponent's gimmick stops working.
