She was able to power down her abilities? I dont remember any part where this was said nor implied... when was this?

Be worth it for the meltdown.

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.

"Hopefully"? Frieza has been a delight this arc and the worst most embarrassing elimination he could have is to be eliminated by not just Saiyans but those Saiyans. Just the thought is unnerving.

I don't think it was said. However, she didn't look quite as big during the beam struggle as compared to her fight with Goku. I don't necessarily agree, but I could understand why someone would think that she didn't quite tap into her full power at that moment.

Looks the same to me, even if that were the case it could just have something to do with the one doing the art, none of them said she looked different, even Goku was cautious around her asking if she was fine being in that state.

Just realizing that these spoilers are really killing my enjoyment of Super because the delay gives me time to concoct all kinds of scenarios in my head. I thinks its time to just go back to being completed surprised by everything that happens from this point on.

Now here is the thing: do they already know it?

Thats the question? If they already know it, thats great, makes sense, points for super for explaining things.




If Champa teaches them from the stands, it might look dumber than if Goku taught them himself.

If it meant watching his sudden sycophants wail after having their new revenge toy taken away? I'd take two or three episodes of pure Frieza humiliation. Fandom spite works both ways. :wink:

Pretty much, especially since I don't see Cali and Kale as 'two bland drones'. Funny how opinions work.

They're not "two bland drones" but they annoy me. Freeza in this arc has been an apology letter to how his F saga was handled I don't want him going away, specially by these girls if unfused. If I still liked Caulifla like I did in her first few appearances then I wouldn't have minded.

I personally liked Freeza in Resurrection 'F', especially the retelling, so I didn't need an apology. And him getting his ass kicked by two females Saiyans that he tried to tortured would be delightful karma and prove once again that Freeza never really learns from his mistakes.

Followed by the Namekains so Freeza can see how many arms he can rip off.

As for the fusion, I hope it's an all-new technique and not just the Metamoran Fusion Dance we're so familiar with. A Universe is a vast place so there should be plenty of other ways to fuse out there. This would be a great chance to expand the lore of the series instead of remaining shackled to what happened in Z.

I hope both Kafla and Freeza make it to the final ten or so/whoever is left for the climax.

So there.

Same, I want more variety of techniques in the DBS' lore, especially since Dragon Ball Fusions came out.

Maybe Saonel and Pirina will finally get rid of Gohan or Vegeta will get rid of Toppo or Dyspo? I feel like the purpose of these episodes is to get Goku back in fighting shape and maybe set Kefla/Kafla up as one of the end-game players.

I think Toppo vs Vegeta along with Saonel and Pilina vs Piccolo and Gohan are fights that are going to be happening for a long time since they have not been mentioned at all in any previews for the episodes. I think we will keep getting little scenes for these 2 battles to keep us entertained and to remind us there are other things going on apart from Goku vs Kale and Caulifla.

I would say the best chance for eliminations is the Universe 6 Robots with Caulifa and Kale at the end of episode 115. The fusion seems like it is being used to get Goku back to full strength.

The problem with Kafla is that if the fusion holds and she is really strong as predicted then Jiren will most likely get up and sort her out. What I am saying is that if they defuse then Frieza will be after them and if they don't Jiren will be.
