Why do two of my three favorite U6 characters (Frost and Magetta) have to get ringed out before those two fanservice characters :cry: At least we still have Hit, and those U6 Namekians might be interesting as long as they're not carbon copies of Piccolo (though the odds of Saonel being Piccolo 2.0 are pretty likely).

I have a feeling that Cabba is gonna be the next to get eliminated on the Universe 6 Team. Toei and Toriyama don't seem to care much for the orginal Team U6 members, besides Hit.

If you don't count Universe 7, there's not that many opponents remaining.

They really got to have Piccolo rack up some more wins. Piccolo only defeated a single character so far, he's barely above the level of Tien. Goddamn. I also hope 18 especially gets a few more wins.

At this point I've given up on expecting there to be any variety in the eliminations from different universes.

It's gonna be all Universe 6, 7 and probably an handful from Jiren. A few exceptions aside that's about it.

I can understand it I suppose but I'm not a fan of it.

You're absolutely correct! Out of the 31 competitors remaining, this is what it looks like;

5 are from Universe 2 (5)
6 are from Universe 3 (11)
4 are from Universe 4 (15)
6 are from Universe 6 (21)
7 are from Universe 7 (28)
0 are from Universe 9 (28)
0 are from Universe 10 (28)
3 are from Universe 11 (31)

It's all very exciting, isn't it?!

They have given Piccolo one 15 second fight in 12 episodes which is beyond ridiculous. This makes think he is definitely not going anyhere anytime soon.

18's next fight could be her last as she has some screen time and wins.

I think Piccolo will fight the two namekians from U6, Saonel and Pirina. Then he's gone maybe.

And I think he's next in U7 since it seems writers are trying to set up a good team of color commentators from the sideline :P I just realized in ep 108 how valious Muten Roshi's comments are from a fighting analysis standpoint. That's why I think Cabba is a goner soon too.

If Piccolo beats the Namekians then he will have another fight. I also think be will fight someone from Universe 2 or 3 before he fights the Namekians as he has only had a 15 second battle. The Namekians have not even been introduced yet and don't seem like they will for a while. I am predicting they will not appear until Hit and the 3 Saiyans are out.

Toriyama wouldn't care about commentating from the side and Toei can't go changing things like this.

17 and 18 will go before Piccolo.

Right, because we never saw something like that before in this anime/manga. :roll:

You actually think Toriyama when writing his script is going to kick out a fighter just so Toei can have that fighter commentate.

Toriyama's script definitely does not have this much detail in it.

First of all, I don't think Toriyama is that involve in the writting process. I was referring to the other writers. They do care about those details (at least they should hehe)

Toriyama script could be a napkin or a novel honestly. Anyone who says they know is a liar.

I personally -believe- its closer to the napkin. It may not even provide the order of elimination. It may just say "so and so are the last 10 fighters" or it may have everything.

If its that thin TOEI could eliminate whoever for whatever reason.

I'm on the napkin train too. I don't think Toriyama doesn't even care about the order or the motives behind some eliminations from this colosal tournament.

I'm in the napkin camp as well, but I hope Toriyama hasn't been that non-descriptive in his outline. At least some general order of elimination should have been provided, if not a specific one. Like, even a "Roshi eliminates some of Universe 4's weaker fighters" and a guide somewhere else to who those weaker fighters are (tier list? I dunno) would be enough. I'll be kinda disappointed if he hasn't even done something as generic as that.

The red flag that is the lack of a statement on the arc from Toriyama that exists for arcs prior to this one leads me to the napkin camp.

I think he's getting bored again and so is providing less and less input each arc, imo.

:lol: I love the phrase "Napkin Camp" it makes me laugh. Great replies from every one really. I too hope it isn't that bare bones, just saying it could really call anywhere between those two extremes.

"40. Frost (Universe 6) (0) was eliminated by Frieza (Universe 7) (3) with a cheap shot (Episode 108)"

Shouldn't there be a 1 by Frost instead of 0 as he knocked off Krillin?

You're absolutely correct, thanks for pointing that out!

I'll amend that now.
