Thoughts on Krillin and 18 dropping out?

Post by cheddarsword » Sun May 21, 2017 10:16 am

Didn't see a topic for it, so I thought I'd start it up.

Do you think they can be convinced to stay on? If so, what do you think it will take?

If they leave, who do you think will replace them?

If this becomes a trend, how do you think the fighters will be convinced to stay on? Perhaps Beerus will spill the beans?

I wouldn't be surprised if it was over Frieza or the reveal of the erasure.

But I'd have to see the episode first.

They are acting that way most likely because they finally know the truth and to make it worse Goku is thinking on bringing Freeza too.
They will be mad at Goku's for lying, C18 will be madder because there's no money prize, but they won't stay out.

- Krillin had his own arc leading up this. He's also showed attacking in the Opening ( In contrast to Buu who we only see in the Opening groupe shots and sleeping in the Ending)
- Some months ago when it was revealed Toriyama's designs for C17/C18 in V-Jump, they said we could expect teamwork from them with Krillin.
A world without Dragon Ball is just meh.

Yeah, they're not dropping out. I think they are just mad because:

1) Someone tells them the truth about the tournament, or
2) Maybe Goku suggests Freezer as the 10th member (I think that happens in the next episode, right? I can't remember. It's such a bad idea that I erased from my mind as soon as posible)

If Krillin drops out, I'll be really mad, after all of those "filler" episodes having him and Goku training and fighting.

Krillin ain't dropping out, he is just thinking his wish matters or for a better take he thinks he himself matters when berrus is there and was ready to beat buu to consciousness to join..
If Krillin thinks he can just refuse and go home he got another thing coming

They're not quitting. They're likely just mad that Goku lied to them about the tournament is for zeni when it's really for the universe. Krillin is going to be outraged when he hears Goku talk about bringing Freeza back too, but we have confirmation from the writers they're in the tournament and use attacks so they're safe.

If I thought for a second this was legit, I'd be mad as hell. Krillin got some great build up and people have wanted to see 18 fight for ages.

However, it's likely just a character moment for the two when confronting Goku. Interested in seeing what happens.

I think they will be replaced by Cell and Yamcha. Kuririn was always scared of big fights and A-18 only fought for money and since Goku will tell them the truth they will pull out of the tournament. We already have the strongest android 17 as part of the team, probably they thought two was too much, furthermore, things are always changing, Jiren was supposed to be in Toppo's place in the exhibition match and Toyataro warned everyone in an interview that the final team would be different and full of surprises.
