Re: Support Your Universe.
I hope the English subtitles give a good context of how Botamo got eliminated because that look really suspicious. Like... bending the rules and lore in-universe suspicious. It looks like Gohan was striking him up upward to create some kind of momentum that would force Botamo to hover above the ground and sustained that force by then kicking him in the air and hitting him with a Kamehameha.Lord Frieza wrote:And nothing else, the guy litaraly relyes on his power to win and nothing else.

Thats true, Botmao's invulnerability takes all the kenteic energy out of attacks, Goku could not even move him an inch when that fought.Lord Beerus wrote:I hope the English subtitles give a good context of how Botamo got eliminated because that look really suspicious.

Re: Support Your Universe.
I think Toriyama put himself into a corner by giving Botamo the abilities that he has. It really limits how he can fight and how people can fight against him. I think Toei just went "fuck it" and bent the rules so Gohan could eliminate him. It's kind of annoying, to be honest that would take such a lazy route with eliminating Botamo. But I'm not much invested into Botamo so it doesn't bother me much.Lord Frieza wrote:Thats true, Botmao's invulnerability takes all the kenteic energy out of attacks, Goku could not even move him an inch when that fought.Lord Beerus wrote:I hope the English subtitles give a good context of how Botamo got eliminated because that look really suspicious.

I also think this episode killed the whole "Angels are sinister" theory that was floating around. Cus looked very sad when her universe got erased.

I'm pretty glad because I never liked that "fan theory" much in the first place. Just because Mojito was relieved he didn't have to listen to Rou and Sidra anymore didn't mean the rest of the Angels didn't grow fond of their GoDs and Kais. I know Whis would be sad and Vados will be sad if U6 gets erased. That theory had little substance to support why people felt that way other than some odd character facial draws.

Re: Support Your Universe.
I'm certain she would be. She seems to care for him, offering him healthy drinks and stuff to get him in better shape. If she didn't give a crap like Mojito she'd let him get even more obese.
Re: Support Your Universe.
Botami is fine. He's a yellow bear who can resist some direct attacks until it becomes too much for him. What are you expecting?Hakaishin Liquir wrote:Toei made Botamo a waste of a character.

Of the original U6 members he was just a design, from what I remember I don't recall him speaking at all in the U6 tournament.
Re: Support Your Universe.
So, which universe is most likely going to be eliminated next? U2, U3, or U4?
Re: Support Your Universe.
U3, probably. U4 still has two fighters to reveal and U2's Kamikaze Fireballs are too relevant to go out this early.MagmonKai wrote:So, which universe is most likely going to be eliminated next? U2, U3, or U4?

Re: Support Your Universe.
My guess is also 3 to be eliminated next. They're the only other universe left that doesn't have a whole lot going for them.

Re: Support Your Universe.
Is U3 the robot universe? Don't they only have two fighters knocked out so far? If so I can't see 8 more characters going out at once.
Re: Support Your Universe.
Maybe not at once it took a few episodes for U10 to be erased. I vote for u3 as well. Is there a pattern you guys are seeing in this tournament. U9 erased, next U10. Universe 6 eliminate U7 member, then vice versa. U6 worked together to help U7 and now vice versa.
Re: Support Your Universe.
They have 7 fighters left, same as U4. Only U11 has less fighters (4).precita wrote:Is U3 the robot universe? Don't they only have two fighters knocked out so far? If so I can't see 8 more characters going out at once.
I don't think we'll see another universe destroyed for another 3-4 episodes at least. I also think that U3 is most likely to go next, hopefully one of their fighters gets to do something. Narirama, Nigrisshi and The Preecho were pretty bad, other than that first Narirama scene (which was more of a cool Hit/Basil scene anyway). At least The Preecho has THE most ridiculous name though

Re: Support Your Universe.
Aren't the members of all remaining universes on the ED (except U9 and U10) ? I feel like something twist-y is going to happen, and no other Universe is going to be erased now.
U3 being erased wouldn't even give that much of an impact. They barely had any screentime to begin with, nobody in particular is friends with them. Why bother destroying
Besides, they still have plenty to show off. Don't cross them off that easily.

Re: Support Your Universe.
Since I've been going on about Universe 10 designs and how they seem to be inspired by Street Fighter characters, I've decided, now that they're gone, to try and take a deeper look into it. There's little to go on, since not many are fleshed out in the show and we don't have profiles on the Toei website, but I'll try to do my best.
Murichim / Zangief - big burly dude obsessed with muscles, who puts physical fitness above everything else;
Jirasen / Vega - narcissist dude wearing bullfighter-like outfit who likes roses;
Nappapa / E.Honda - sumo dude, quite obviously;
Zirkol / Dhalsim - little to go on here, but Zirkol is stated to use Yoga as a fighting style and his design is very similar to Dhalsim's SFV one.
Mechiop / Necro - funny looking stretchy dude;
Murisam / Adon - Muay Thai fighter with a weird smile;
Rubalt / Blanka - monstrous dude wearing human clothes;
Lilibeau / Ibuki - sweet and innocent girl who's special abillities rely on attacks from the air;
Obni / Sagat - tall and honorable warrior, looking for and enjoying a great fight, respecting the opponents strong enough to give him one;
Jium / T.Hawk - warriors who attack from the air like eagles. Stretching this quite a bit, but let's be honest, Jium is just a freaking bird... Included him just for completion's sake.
May Zeno watch over their soul... The least he could do after killing them.

Re: Support Your Universe.
Except for the color scheme, there's not much there. Blanka is humanoid and feral, while that guy is a green bird dude in a speedo. Until we see more of him, I'm not ready to call one inspired by the other. Even Rubalt is streetching it. The only ones 100% taken from SF are the first 4, who also happen to be the ones who got any kind of attention, at least until the last episode.namekiansaiyan wrote:
