I really don't know why when the article just talks about those voice actresses. As the responses to that tweet point out, 118 will probably be their last episode for at least 3-4 months.

Because if they stay erased until the end of the ToP, then means Freeza will win the ToP to set up the next arc.

If Toriyama had the stones to keep those who got erased , erased, this arc would vault up to one of the best in the entire franchise for me. I enjoy a lot of the characters but for this tournament to have permenant consequences would be refreshing and a nice twist from usual protocol.

P.S. I expect everyone to come back so don't jump on me. :D

Yea I don't think Freeza would win either, I mean could we expect him to wish everyone back? When he can instead wish to be above all deities?

Really, there is a lot of discussion about what Vegeta will do against Jiren on EP 122.

If we can get a WSJ synopsis this week, then we can get an idea of what will happen on this EP. If not, we'll have to wait a little longer.

This week is an off week which is why there was a double issue last week. There might be another double issue next week though.

Edit: Yukana had already tweeted that earlier photo a couple weeks ago: https://twitter.com/soyyuka/status/937116341638635520 They took it after recording Kefla vs. Goku. She thanks everyone for watching Super and was really excited to be working with Nozawa. It's great how everyone just loves Nozawa. :D

But what is the reason why two synopses were released last week? Is it because on the 31st we will not have an episode?

In October, in the TV special, two synopses were released (EP 109 and 110), but the following week we also obtained another synopsis (EP 111). Could not that be the case here?

There were two summaries this week because the magazine won't be published next week, so there's one for this week's episode as usual and one for the following week's. The next magazine should come out around the 21st or 22nd with a summary for 122 and maybe 123. Some times you do get doubles and an issue the week after but from everything I've been able to find, there's nothing coming up for this week.

I understood, what a pity. For some reason I'm starting to create a lot of expectations for this fight between Vegeta and Jiren, so I'm also starting to look forward to the synopsis of this EP.

At first my expectations were very low, I think it best to keep them that way so as not to disappoint me (knowing TOEI, it's best not to expect too much from Vegeta)

Goku would be completely obvious to the whole thing anyway. It would be a total slap in the face to Chichi, who's been nothing but loyal to her family.

As gross as the thought of Goku x Caulifla is, saying Goku is oblivious to the idea of pregnancy is flat out wrong. Z Goku showed plenty of times he knew exactly how babies were made and all that.

I feel like Z Goku's also the more reliable source on "Here's what Goku knows about pregnancy." because Z had less cooks in the kitchen than Super does from what I can tell.
Trying to wrap some of Super's more ooc Goku moments into in-universe ends up leading me down the depressing road of thinking 40+ years of battle has given Goku additional physical brain trauma and he has trouble remembering stuff as a result.

As for Goku/Caulifla?....I'm wary of shipping Caulifla without knowing her age. Also I already have a non-canon ship for Goku even if it has been lost at sea for most of this year. *Watches the VegeKaka ship adrift in the ocean*.

Babies? Sure he would know. Romance is what typically comes before that, and goku isn't an expert in that, that's putting it lightly.

According to Super he never kissed his wife yet somehow has two kids. Go figure. But it's a kid show.

In Dragonball he thought marriage was food. Goku is completely clueless, naive, gullible like a kid and lost about romance lol. Just picturing Goku with smooth moves to get a woman to fall for him is almost impossible to imagine, he might have to seek the guy who overcame his fear of women; yamcha, for advice hahahsha. All he cares about is fighting.

Using Kid/Teen Goku isn't an argument. DBS has also been shown to grossly exaggrate Goku's stupid side, so idk what your point is. Between the kiss joke, which 1) he got married, he had to. 2) they kissed in Z 3) had two children. Also, the kiss scene was supposed to a vague misunderstanding played off as a joke which has spread huge misinformation. All he cares about his fighting is also a big exaggeration.

When did I imply he'd become a ladies man or any of that? I didn't. I'm just saying he's not as dumb as the fandom paints him to be, no thanks to TFS. When Trunks talked about his parents, Goku wasn't some brain dead idiot who went "how did Vegeta and Bulma have a kid????" no. he's an adult and understood how things work. And in the Buu Saga when Krillin said he and 18 had a children, his reaction again "how do androids have babies" meaning he knows EXACTLY what goes on.

Just because Super manga made him say "oh so that's how it works" when Bulla popped out of nowhere thanks to Whis, that doesn't change that it's OOC.

But I shouldn't be surprised. Considering you're one of those people who believe "Piccolo is Gohan's real dad" so I can clearly see the bias in your reply.

Goku never kissed Chi-Chi in Z. The closest we ever got was an implied kiss and that was filler. You can also have kids without kissing. And the kiss joke being a misunderstanding is only in the anime. In the manga, Goku outright says he never kiss his wife.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

What is with the spanish fanbase and those ridiculous memes? I swear everytime I see some awful image, edit or fanart about something questionable in Super, it always has spanish text.

What the hell.

The majority of clickbait articles on BlastingNews and shitty videos on Youtube (English or not) are made by people of the latino fanbase.
