SHIDA!
What pretty lights. Maybe both characters aught to consider working for a carnival entertaining children after this. Seriously though, I don't see the "autonomous" movement that Ultra Instinct is famous for being demonstrated with that taut scrunched glower of Goku's. Wouldn't an auto-mechanically run body operate with no emotional state of being except self-preservation? How is it that Goku can display emotion in this condition? Does he retain control of his facial features and vocal cords to speak? If so then that might constitute as a minor inconsistency. Hopefully this doesn't turn out to be a "have your cake and eat it at the same time" mechanics fallacy but it's looking like that at the moment.
It was never said or implied that UI turned you into an emotionless robot since Whis has UI and doesn't. We also know that he can speak since he did it in 116. He's just all business in UI.
No, it just renders your body neuroelectrically incognisant as the body takes the reigns and directs itself. All of the muscles that control facial movement and contortion are somehow exempt from this rule, though.

Yeah, it is.

Tonight's episode will make or break Super for a lot of fans, let's hope everything will turn out great.

If there was anything going to break Super for anyone it did it a long time ago. who are still watching will continue to do so regardless of what happens in 130 and who dropped it did so a long time ago.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Tonight's episode will give us a Goku/Frieza tag team battle and (potentially) Frieza saving our universe.

It's ... it's gonna be some episode, alright.

(still think #17 is somewhere in the arena)

This is said whenever Super enters a major event yet everyone is still here. :yawn:

Even if this episode "breaks the camel's back", what's the point this far into it ? I highly doubt anyone who's watched this long will drop it when there's one episode left. Whoever dropped it did so within the first 50 or even less episodes.

He's probably with Hit. :lol:

Nope, that's 131 (the finale) and not 130.

Wha- seriously? Wasn't 130 supposed to be the end of the tournament and 131 some kind of epilogue episode? Color me intrigued.

Not sure if DBS is available on Crunchyroll in Europe, but it should be there at 3:00.

Yep. 131 is the final 30 seconds of the tournament plus the wish, apparently.
