So why the hell is a guy from Yardrat in Universe 2 anyways?

Are they going to try and say Goku somehow ended up in Universe 2 after Namek exploded back in the day?

Doesn't the U10 guy's name translate to "useless/hopeless team"? I imagine them and U3 get knocked out pretty quickly just because of their lack of screen time. Also U9 is a shithole and we already got to see them fight so they'll be eliminated pretty fast.

No universe 2 just also has a Yardrat just like Universe 6 also has Saiyans and Frost Demons.

I thought only paired universes had mirrored planets though?

Like wasn't the rule that only U6 and U7 have an Earth, had a Sadala etc.?

Yeah both universes being showed after U7 made me think they are gonna be gone soon. Also in that chart apparently we already met one of the unseen dudes from U4, anyone know who is Damon?

they need to make a game for this arc.

80 players, 8 teams, basically a large arena pubg style game but with martial arts and ki stuff instead of guns. the characters are all so varied you could have so many different playstyles.

Yardrats are teleporters. Likely some of them ported to Universe 7 at some point. Goku can use their ablility to teleport to the Afterlife, they being able to cross universes with it does not seem like a stretch.

Nah but the plot is basically the same. Like, I think it's a situation where if you saw one, the other won't have much for you.

The RoF arc has a decent amount of content unique to it. I think it's better than the movie version overall.

They're stretched out to an incredible degree. The SSJ3 Goku vs Beerus fight that was like two minutes in the movie is a whole, terribly animated episode.

They seem to have just changed their minds on that though since the Yardrat isn't Universe 6's member. I'm going to guess the planets can be sprinkled across any amount of universes so they can pull more saiyans out their rear end.

Deal with it.
I know the two starting arcs are pretty lovely on the whole but they have lots of good character moments and in the current dub the dialogue is actually much better than I thought it would be, you can tell the actors and writers are having a lot of fun and it feels much more natural compared to Z.

And that redeemed it of being BoG tier trash. And they didn't embarrass Piccolo by making him struggle against someone equal to Zarbon.

It's seems weird that, for once, they actually made the strong new opponent swole. Typically it's musclebound mooks like Nappa & the real elite fighter is tiny Vegeta.

also it seems like one universe's strategy is to just recruit extremely tiny fighters nobody can see that just hide until the end.

What I would like to see from this tournament:

1. A filler episode after a cliffhanger where Goku and Jiren stare down. In this filler, Yamcha must single-handedly repel an alien invasion on Earth.

2. A filler episode after a cliffhanger where Freeza and Frost are pointing death beam fingers at Vegeta. In this filler, Goten and Trunks stop poachers.

3. A filler episode after a cliffhanger where the head angel dude turns on the rest of the fighters and starts erasing Gods of Destruction. In this filler, Mr. Satan has to deal with Mr. Buu's loud snoring keeping him up at night.
