Good job Gohan. :problem: I hope he actually has to deal with some moral conflict over what he just caused, but I have a bad feeling they'll use Piccolo to hand-wave away any kind of burden he might be feeling.

The summary for episode 104 mentions Super Saiyan God... Think Goku will transform into it? :think:

Why only 9 minutes in abandon the gameplan entirely when its more or less working?
Gohan split everyone up?!
Well. There goes the life line holding them the stage..
Did you not see the episode?
I told you the friendship circle plan would be pointless in the end :lol:
It's not really useless, they conserved energy while everyone else was running around getting tired. Now they are full of energy and while everyone else is tired like zeno mentioned.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

There isn't a title given.
There wasn't in the Animedia preview.

But in the Animage preview, there's something about 106, I think ?

I doubt they'll bring it back after all this time. maybe it has something to do with Gohan cause the episode if focused on him.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

I hope Gowasu has at least one last cup of tea before being erased.

That confirms the leaks as real, then. It only took an entire day for scans to show up... I don't think we've ever been waiting that long without the leaks ending up being fake. And yeah, just to reiterate an earlier point: Real or fake, it makes me uncomfortable that Dragon Ball Super is straight out writing "sexy" in a summary.

For all we know they ignored them because they understood they were about to get their asses kicked by the formation..
See, even if you don't see how it's happening, you can certainly see nobody dared challenge them and even if they did, they backed off without a fight..
Just like red guy challenged jiren, and backed off after seeing him up close..
Now that's certainly not because everyone has been ignoring jiren, it's because challenging him is not the best option available, similar is the case with the formation
It certainly is not the same case as Jirren...
We saw the red guy being afraid of Jirren,nobody was afraid of Gohan's group,they did not have any reason to be afraid of them as their team attack failled to do anything to any of them.So we are certain that for whatever reason they backed off was not because of being scared.If anything being attacked by other fighters while they were fighting Gohan's group seems more likely.
Also Botamo and Lavender ignored Gohan and the next time we see them they fight with Vegeta,so clearly their reasoning had nothing to do with the amount of firepower their opponent has.

Uh, why? Does sexy mean something different in Japan or something?
When Super apparently shoves Goku down our throats:

You gotta take into account these summaries also mention minor plot points in context to the actual episode, ie Caulifla and SSGSS turned out to nothing but minor dialogue passing. Or the #17 being criticised thing wasn't as major as the summaries implied he shrugged it off and that was it. Could be the same thing here.

The point isnt to eliminate others though. Its to not be eliminated. There is no good reason to break the strategy so early.

Pretty sure it straight up says that Goku transforms into SSG. Whether that will actually happen....guess we'll find out. Pretty sure the same magazine said Goku would fight Jiren in the exhibition match.

We didn't see the reason they left them..
It can range from them being scared to them wanting to take a pee..
One thing remains constant, nobody got eliminated in Gohans team with the formation intact.. That's all we need to know ( also that's all we actually know )

I'm saying it based on the English context. It's so... blunt, to put it that way. Like, this is out of universe. A magazine is telling us this, not characters in the show.

Well well that would be interesting, I'm not opposed to it as I love SSG as much as SSGSS but how in the hell are they gonna explain Goku suddenly using it now since it's been non existent througout since BoG. :think:
