This art is really cool. I hope we see at least a few new characters in the weekend.

We're just going to have to wait and see then.

We stilll barely know anything. No way Toriyama will introduce 10 new characters for every Universe we didn't met so far.
Doesn't seem to be a normal tournament. It would be cool if this was just the beginning of something bigger like the Buu arc.

But that's what my hopes for Champa arc were and then it was really just a tournament... :roll:

No offense, but by that logic, Hit is from Space 6 and Zamas from Space 10. It should be Universe.

The description says something about Universe destruction being started... (when the tournament started?) :think:
It doesn't say how or why though (gonna try to keep reading)
Sleeping until the tournament is over.

Why every arc there's someone who thinks the angel will be a villain? First Whis, then Vados, now Great Priest.

If the translation is correct, then it looks like this competition is pretty dark. It says some universes would be wiped out.

With the arc including the word "Survival" and the team being 10 people I don't think this is going to be "just another tournament". I really do think this is going to be a thing were the 12 teams are plopped down on a planet and have to survive and the last person standing wins for their Universe or something like that.

We'll probably only see the ones our team fights and even then Yamamuro might design a handful of them, it would certainly explain his absence in the Future Trunks arc.

So 2 on 2 tag teams?

Anyone think Krillin and 18 will fight together, and Piccolo and 17? I suppose Gohan could fight alongside Goku. Tien and Roshi are probably together.

There's no mention of that. The "team" we know are the 10 from U7.

Team battles. Nice. Hoping it's more than fights though. Like events of some kind. That way it's not all decided on strength and others get a shot depending on their skill. Also I hope this is a lead up to something else like in the Buu arc. I assumed that was going to happen in U6 though so I won't hold my breath for that one.

IF it's teams of 2, Gohan, Goku, Piccolo and Vegeta will be together. The only question is how beerus will divide them. Don't forget that if universes are being wiped out Beerus neck is on the line too, so I doubt he will let any shenanigans happen with the pairings.

Someone on this board suggested a couple of weeks ago that the U7 survival should be based on how they do in the Tournament, and I sort of dismissed it. Looks like I was wrong :lol:, trying to find the poster who suggested it.
