If I'm not missing anything, Caulifla training with Kale will be the first female vs female fight this franchise ever had.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

I don't remember signing an agreement of any kind.

Are we still talking about Super like it's on a trial "make it or break it" time? Because I thought we were way passed that point already.

No. Hope springs eternal.

Plus, they're not the main points of this arc to me.

Well since both Kale and Caulifla transform into SSJ2 so quickly I hope poor Cabba at least gets SSJ3 during the tournament.

I'm not talking about make it or break it. I'm talking about being able to execute an idea.

Oh great, kitano is animating this week.


I am extremely worried this might be the first genuine bad episode of this arc. Like there have been boring episodes but nothing truly bad.

Feel free to correct me, but I'm not entirely sure I see much difference. Unless you hold the opinion that Super hasn't been able to execute any of it's ideas in a satisfactory way, I don't see why these two particular instances would be the loss of hope. Disheartening to be sure, but feels like the "Super can't execute a good idea" thing is a view that someone would have developed quite some time ago.

First fight between two adult, non-Dragon Monster women, then.

I think this week's episode will have Goku going to Hell to find Freeza at the end of the episode. We are probably going to see more of the other Universes getting more fighters in most of the episode.

Universe 4 is the only one that's missing so yeah.

U2 is Brianne
U3 is the Robot guys
U6 is Hit, Cabba, Kale, Caulifla, Botamo, Maggeta and Frost
U7 is our universe
U9 is probably going to be destroyed (Bergamo, Basil and Lavander)
U10 is the Buff Guys
U11 is Toppo, Jiren, Despo and Kahersal.

I don't remember to see Erza ever training to unlock something. She would always pull something new from her ass during her fights.
You can't compare Erza to db characters,Fairy Tail is about magic it's the main theme,they use magic any kind of asspull is very easy to swallow,and i don't see a problem with Caulifa transforming this fast i've seen more bs transformations in db before this,this doesn't seem strange or new in the slightest.

No, I have drawn the line with Fairy Tail at Tenrou Island.

We all complain about Genki dama sword but at least, Trunks didn't get the full win with it. Erza would have and then some.

He has a point tho, never compare the likes of Erza to our DB characters, not even our worst can compare to the bullshit that Erza got, lost all her 5 senses but was still able to win, got all her bones crashed but still managed to defeat a dragon with 1 swing... the only explanation we got is "because she's Erza" talking about this is pissing me off so lets stop mentioning her here... too cancerous.

One of the assassins could be that green guy/girl with the hat we see in the preview/opening.
The article mentions Vegeeta (well, everyone, really) opposes Goku's idea but realizes that having him on the team will increase their chance of winning.

The article also mentions he teleports to Enma's to explain the situation and then goes to Hell to face Freeza.
