Who isn't stronger than Gohan at this point? Wouldn't surprise me if the fish Goku killed in the first chapter caught him off-guard and bit his head off.

People would still defend it somehow.

It's to be expected from Jokehan.

I can't believe how far they're going with this off-guard thing, why even bother to train to beat bad guys when you can just catch them off-guard.

These fighters were taken out by base Caulifla a few episodes ago.
They're weak individually, but when merged, it's a drastically different story.
They were giving ultimate Gohan trouble individually.
Considering the three robots had to fuse for fight Ultimate Gohan, I think it's safe to say that individually they wouldn't have been able to beat Ultimate Gohan. None of them actually land a single blow on Ultimate Gohan, funny enough.

Nah, that's outdated too. His true form is his Grandpa Gohan form with the time travelling powers.

Aniraza NEEDS to eliminate people, so far they have 0 like Universe 10.

Universe 4 eliminated 2 people despite being a joke.

Besides how can Toei expect fans to buy an Aniraza card if he cant eliminate anyone?

It's deceitful but...[spoiler]I'm watching the preview over and over again. It makes it seem that 17 is getting thrown out.[/spoiler]

Also, once again I love how our U3 is always coming back with almost no damage after getting knocked around.

He will. Most likely 18 and 17.

Gohan didn't job, stop using that term incorrectly.

Isn't that what they did to Raditz, Vegeta, Nappa, The ginyu force and many others?


I mean there was a reason why power levels were introduced, to show meaningless they were. The villains constantly underestimated the heroes and resulted in their own death.


Thats basically a long term version of catching them when their guard is down.

Seems #18 gets knocked out judging from that group shot.

If catching people off guard is so effective Piccolo should have just killed Freeza himself. Also, no villain was actually beaten that way. Goku managed to grab Raditz but it was Piccolo's Makankosappo that did him in. Freeza's saucers would have torn him apart regardless and Trunks was just straight up stronger than him. Cell just got blown away by Gohan and Buu was killed by the Genki Dama.

Gohan made these fodders look like they could contend with his Ultimate form, how is that not jobbing?
