Think about it, I'd rather have Piccolo face them, but it would be a more surprising fight to have 17 and 18 struggling against the two bugs only for the new Namekians to come in, use their hearing and eliminate the bugs before fighting the Androids.
Why would the Namekians help 17 and 18? They would wait for them to be knocked out before defeating the bugs. Who would Piccolo face instead?
The bugs vs Androids would make sense a little as they are both twins.

I'm not saying to curb your expectations or anything of the sort. But it's a fact that there's nothing concrete telling us that Piccolo and the U6 Namekians are being saved for one another, and at the moment nothing says they have to be for Piccolo.
What has your first sentence got to do with anything? I like to think the Namekians will bring something to bring as what wpuld be the point of them being here?
The Namekians can fight other people but at some point they should end up at least interacting with Piccolo.

then what's the point of closing the episode thread if that happens, I just wish everyone waited for the episode thread
What's pretty sad is that this shows people aren't mature enough to understand (and follow) rules and just feel entitled to have whatever they want when they want. Those threads got locked because of people not being aware enough they didn't know what they were talking about and not knowing how to behave. The moderators had to treat them as babies and prevent that from happening. Or so they thought because, even after being warned, people just ignore the rules/moderators to have their way because God forbid they wait an hour to make a post.
I'm sure the majority has no ill will when doing it but there can't be a free pass given here, everyone should know better. Anyone who does it need to realize they are basically telling the moderators to fuck off.

The keyword here being should. Yeah, I agree that they should at least interact and have a good fight with Piccolo, and I'm personally somewhat hopefully they will. I'm simply not ignoring the possibility of that not happening. Sure there are things we feel should happen, but things don't always go that way.

No, I just misworded it. They wouldn't be helping the Androids, more so taking advantage of the situation where the Bugs will have weakened them along with being weakened themselves. Then they'll jump in and try to take all four fighters out, succeeding in taking the Bugs out...
As for Piccolo, I'm not really sure, though perhaps he could take on the guy with the cane from U3 (I forgot his name). I mean, I'd rather see Piccolo fight the two Namekians, but it would also feel too obvious of a fight and I could see him not fighting them just because we're expecting it...kind of like Tien with the Bugs for having sensed them

Apparently this thread is only supposed to be used for discussion of announcements; every once in a great while a moderator comes in here and says to stop the general discussion that always takes place here. Then by the next page the general discussion resumes as usual. What's a regular poster supposed to do, report the dozens of off-topic posts? It's impossible to believe the moderators don't already see the pages upon pages of supposedly off-topic discussion; that it isn't removed signals that the discussion is okay more than a warning every few months.
People don't follow rules that aren't enforced. It's more expected than sad to me. You've done it too; just recently you had a lively back and forth about the nature of the Genki Dama in this thread.

Well, a report button exists to be used when someone feels it's necessary.
You don't think it's sad people have to be reminded over and over again that they're a guest in someone else's "house" and they're the ones that wanted to get in so they're expected to behave accordingly? It's common sense.
Off-topic is inevitable in every thread but it's a different matter when someone knows there's a specific thread where that topic should have been posted. By now, everyone here that follows the anime knows there are threads for each episode and that they are locked until the subtitled versions are available. There's no excuse not to wait a couple of hours.

It was just the same art of Goku. It did say something in regards to the special that is something that hasn't been said since July though, "Something terrible will happen".

There's going to be one more episode to end off September on the 23rd or 30th.

What if the reason why Piccolo is not with Gohan is because Jimeze teleports away with him and he fights Universe 2

That would be an interesting use for the IT. Using it to separate your opponent from their team and maybe even into a trap.

It is pretty broken, but I would rather see new techniques from the race known to have great techniques..

Happy birthday man
Happy birthday to you too

So, on topic,
What are the chances of the Yadrat showing actual techniques instead of spamming IT throughout his fight until Freeza rocks his world

They advertise it as 1-hour special, so two normal episodes would be silly.

It's filling a 1 hour time slot and it's special that we're getting 2 episodes back to back.
