The middle part of the preview where he has the bang will be by the end of the episode as it was during the day again, all the rest that was shown where he didn't have it will all come before he unlocks mystic again.

Yes he was, it was announced when they said "Gohan is back" and such, there was even an image of him without the bang. In the preview, he is seen with bang in one shot and without it in another. This is nuts.

He wasn't ultimate in the exhibition. The only shots with him without the bang in the NEP are at night when they first start training, the shots of him with the bang are during the day when Gohan is already covered in scratches from training.

That blip of text was spoiling it's return in the arc. It didn't mean he had it since the beginning of the arc. If he did, there would be no reason for Piccolo to be calling him weak and then saying his power will return. He'll get ultimate again next episode. The previews are also out of order so he'll have the bang by the end of the episode, but not at the beginning. The shots of him without it are before he becomes ultimate. The only time it's been inconsistent is episode 67.

Judging very hastily, from the preview it looks like Piccolo will give base Gohan and Super Saiyan Gohan a hard time, and then the (Ultimate?) Gohan with the bang will smack around Piccolo's copies in a Neo vs. Smith fashion.

Episode 90 title [spoiler]Goku x Gohan
Overcoming the wall

That makes two episodes in a row focused on Gohan getting stronger.
First the Ultimate Gohan bang and now it seems to make an allusion to the wall of gods. Or at least the wall they keep mentioning in the intros.[/spoiler]

I don't know why Jpn loves the first Broly movies given then enormous amount of parodies, but I've come to love them aswell, hence the Paragus.

There is an episode between the two Gohan ones.

Totally forgot about Tien/Roshi. Wouldn't be the first time though.
But still two Gohan episodes. And seems to be the last one before the tournament begins. So hopefully we will stop getting those X hours left until it begins.

When I saw the trailer part in which Gohan charges up, I thought if he initially could go SSJ3 for the first time, dunno why but doesn't look like a Mystic trsnsformation process to me, maybe I'm wrong tho :lol:

Btw, i really loved this episode, not for the animation or overall quality theirselves, but for its contents

Touching moments, 17 charaterized greatly, and, first and most important, LOTS and LOTS of past series and episodes

Foes gone on Z team like piccolo and Tien, Cell arc references etc.
And Goku finally looked more mature
When I heard 17 will leave his Island to trunks and Goten i partied :lol: very happy for this, maybe will help to raise their responsibility sense
When goku in the nep trailer says " piccolo, you're going to enter the tournament too, aren 't you?!" i had that feeling again(some of the members showed could not partecipate at the last minute) but again, it's only a feeling of mine, so don' t care too much guys

The thing that surprised me the most was Cell references
Yesterday I saw some of you guys say this arc reproposed lots of Cell arc moments, and shortly after we had another Cell reference, and an announcement of a Goku x gohan episode, I had my mouth open for a while lol

Could this arc really end with gohan saving the day again, like you proposed?!

What needs to happen is that Gohan power ups and charges Piccolo but then we see a shot of Piccolo stopping Gohan's punch with ease and the camera moves up to reveal Piccolo in his new red eyed form. Piccolo then says 'you still have much to learn'. Now wouldn't that be great?

If they are making him train to ultimate first, them also dedicating one more full episode of goku and gohan fighting naming it breaking walls or what not, it can be easily assumed gohan is getting a taste of that god ki..
It pretty obvious that's gonna happen with how they put it..

Doesn't look like Piccolo is getting any god form whatsoever, like they gave up on comming up with a decent design for it besides a recolor and are just treating him without his weights as a "form".

What gives me a buit of hope is that in the preview he is Ultimate more or less at the start while at the end you see him in Super Saiyan... at least it looks like it

This Piccolo Gohan thing was happening the same time as the #17 and Goku thing correct?

If the provisional title for episode 92 is correct and there's a chance someone won't appear to the departure for the Tournament of Power I wouldn't care if Yamcha was taking Roshi's place, he already shined in RoF. Buu is an essence, he deserves more than just the exhibition fight against Basil.

It what be a great surpirse for the episode though and Piccolo has got stronger already based on that preview.
