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.

Clearly Goku will defeat Jiren by out-spinning him. How did I not see this before?

I was expecting Frieza to jump in after Goku de-blued in the fight, but then I forgot that UI was coming back

I expect Frieza to suckerpunch them out of the ring at the last moment, denying Goku a clean fight. While everyone else remarks for 5 minutes about how eeeeevil Frieza is.

I'm really curious as to why universe 3 and 4 are still so confident. Too self assured to use the fusion and not shaken by Jiren's display of power.

They secretly have left bombs all over the arena. At the last second, they all go off, destroy the floor, and they got people who can fly in the world of void.

There is like no chance anyone who gets erased is gonna stay erased so treating the arc with intense drama and dread would be a waste of time and just make it all feel rather pointless if they did anything else but just have fun with it.

Hypothesis: the tournament leaves us with a handful of people from what’s left after one or two erasures more. These feature next arc since nobody is actually getting the tourney wish save Freiza, because no gently caress, Vegeta saying it in show is sign for WILL NOT HAPPEN

Big fat arc devoted to grabbing the Supers in a full loop of the original quest, finale, all universes wished back

Are you going by ring-outs or who the Omni-Kings think is coolest. Because it's probably going to be Friueza gloating about how he won when El Grande Padre interrupts to say that, actually, Goku is so cool you guys.

Goku is only allowed to be the coolest because Frieza saved him and gave him energy.

Yeah, Gowasu asks Shin how he didn't know about the Potara's time limit and Shin believes it's because the Grand Kaioshin was too laid back, enough to not use the Potara himself which led to himself getting absorbed by Buu.

Does U7 prove the Grand Priest wrong?

The gods never got involved and screwed up constantly. They were almost all killed.

Instead of failing, U7 produced the strongest warriors in the cosmos.

I mean he directly encouraged hit to get tougher so they're not the playthings of the GoDs anymore and did the same with all his friends (esp. Gohan who's gonna surpass them on his own terms/ without Blue or God Ki).

It's something they're been directly setting up.

Piccolo has been clawing his way back up. He was fodder in the Buu saga, now he regularly clowns on Gohan. At this rate Piccolo will be top tier again in no time, just you wait!

They're being subtle about it too

Gohan is the only one short of Freeza who is actually pacing himself, and unlike Freeza he's staying in the background most of the time. 17 had a huge show where he pulled all of his tricks out already, multiple times, 18 has been struggling the entire time due to largely giving up on fighting until now

Gohan is just quietly in the background, almost entirely unharmed. None of the other contestants think of him as a threat, the last time Toppo saw him he was barely SSJ level.

Now things could go against him and he just doesn't do anything, but it feels like they're saving him for a last minute thing due to how smart he's been about fighting and not drawing attention to himself.

Something 17 himself points out, too. He's fully aware of how broken infinite Ki is in a survival tournament.

But he hasn't beaten anyone like a rug. Yet.
