That's what i think as well. I liked the part where he gets his limbs ripped off. :lol: I hope it happens.

Gohan saving himself for once? :lol:
Anyways i am expecting the usual he sacrifices himself for Gohan thing,oh yeah he will get his arm cut off as well because why not?
It may as well be part of his fighting style at this point.

I think Piccolo might take down a strong opponent by working together with Gohan. It sounds kind of a cliché (and it is) but I also see Piccolo going out of bounds to save Gohan, either pushing him out of the way, or taking said opponent down with himself.

I expect a great combo between Gohan and Piccolo to take down a relatively big name. No way in hell it'll be Jiren, Hit and unlikely to even be Toppo, but I could see Dypso and Karhsel vs. Gohan and Piccolo being a great battle.

I don't think he'll not take anyone out before he goes at the very least. Might get thrown out of bounds but use his crazy reach to hold on to the ledge.

But I'll look at it in the bright side, at least he can use his dismembered limbs to shoot blasts at others like he did with Gohan.

This just makes me think back to when Frieza was cutting off Nail#s arm. Could Nail have taken him by surprise?

Piccolo's my favorite character and has been for ages, but I don't see him lasting long. He's always been under the radar, and he was the only non Saiyan Z fighter to keep up with the Saiyans for as long as he did, but he's simply a background character now. I hope he puts on a showing equal to if not better than Krillin's performance.

The best thing for a Piccolo fan is to keep your expectations low, and anything pleasantly unexpected is just extra gravy.

Naw Nail was too worried that Freeza would make him use that broken off arm as a back scratcher.

Mmm i wonder how low it is,after all Piccolo's treatment in rof and U6 arc was unexpected but not in a good way.
