He used Blue on Kale and got bodied. We know Goku was holding back, as usual.
There have been plenty of other instances where repeat frames have been done interestingly, something I should add is that I personally prefer when repeat frames are mixed in with other choreography. Having fights purely made out of repeat frames can be tedious if handled poorly.Draconic wrote:The things is, most of the times it's not. It wasn't in Z and it isn't in Super. Except for Tate's work in episodes 79, 86 and this one, I haven't found any interesting bit of repeated frames since the Namek arc (including GT).JazzMazz wrote:I'm okay with it as long as it's done well and if there are interesting elements that give flavour to the fights occurring at the same time.Draconic wrote:I really wish they'd just drop trying to do the Z thing of having repeated frames over and over and actually try to do something more, like Higashide's cut this episode. At least Tate makes them interesting and expressive. The more Super will try to take from Z, the more it will suck. The best part of it's fights till now have been how different and unique they are, but now everything is the same shit we got for 20 years. Fuck that.
No worries! And ahh I see why you could think that now. No I'm just taking a guess. I highly doubt that Dyspo and his fellow Pride Trooper survive a dream tag team of Goku and Hit. But I could be totally wrong. I made all my guesses based on the NEP.Asura wrote:Ah, sorry then. The way I read it made it seem like you possibly had inside information about Dyspo being knocked out. That's why I said I didn't know if you were just predicting he'd be knocked out or if you actually knew for certain due to spoilers.KingKaash wrote:It was in the preview. I thought everyone who comments on this thread has seen the episode and the preview to the next episode that airs right after the show has ended. Everyone is talking about SSJG which is also in the next episode so I assumed it's safe to talk aboutAsura wrote:
I don't know if this is a spoiler or if it's just your prediction for what will happen, but if it is a spoiler please refrain from talking about spoilers in the episode discussion threads in the future, thanks.
NEP is definitely fair game, no worries.
I can see why you love Super (based from your avatar), but claiming that 'anywhere else Super is loved' is just as much of a stretch as my statement that the show is suffering. Maybe 'anywhere else' is places where most of the viewers are kids who are too young to see the narrative issues with this arc? Or maybe kanzenshuu is a place with a lot of 30-year-olds whose expectations are bigger than just hearing Goku, Vegeta and Gohan go ATATATATATATATTATATATATAA (which by the way, used to be Krillin's trademark attack shout back in the original DB anime).Asura wrote: Then you go anywhere else and people are in love with it.

The beginning of the tournament felt perfectly paced and had lots of little interesting battles between characters. Now a lot of it is just rushed fights of two people running back and forth and firing a few energy blasts then knocked out or moved onto another fight within a minute. This is fine for fodder characters but they're also doing it on characters that I feel are important like Ribrianne. It doesn't help that the tournament is starting to feel rushed now they're eliminating universes very quickly.fadeddreams5 wrote:They're rushing through the fights to get rid of the fodder characters and reach the battles that actually matter. Hence, I want them to get to the point because it's clear they're putting minimal effort into these episodes. If they don't care about these new characters, why should I? It's a snoozefest.
Ideally, I should be anticipating the final battles, but also be enjoying the initial ones enough to not mind them getting to the point or not because enough care and creativity is being placed into the episodes to keep me entertained while it all builds up to the climax. Hell, the Zeno exhibition was also way more interesting and made me care more for those wolf guys than nearly every single new character introduced since.
GP looks even younger tbh. Maybe their father is an infant...you know, the son of that embryo.precita wrote:She seems to be the youngest of all the Angels, given she looks like a kid while the rest of them look like adults. I know she's still likely billions of years old, but she's a "kid in Angel age" so to speak.
Maybe that's why she's so sad.
You said the later half of the episode had terrible animation, but then proceed to show us pedestrian animation from the 1st half of the episode and nothing from the latter to prove your point. The team is certainly capable of delivering good animation, and they delivered in the second half of the episode, which had the longest animation highlight of the entire show.Username2016 wrote:
Yeah we're asking for good animation because looking at the Future Trunks Arc the team IS capable of providing us with that kind of quality.
And no, the later half of the episode had shit animation

The proof is in the pudding. You can go almost anywhere and see positive remarks about this arc. YouTube channels of famous DB youtubers, dbz subreddit, different polls, hell I even checked out /a/ yesterday which I never go to and found that surprisingly there wasn't much negativity at all. Mostly people just fighting about Gohan and CauliflaNickolaidas wrote:I can see why you love Super (based from your avatar), but claiming that 'anywhere else Super is loved' is just as much of a stretch as my statement that the show is suffering.

I didn't mean that Super is crap, or that this arc is crap. I meant that the Battle Royale had the potential to be a 20 out of 10 arc, to be THE arc, and yet it's a mediocre arc with episodes filled with ups and downs. The biggest issue is the pacing, the narrative and the writing (concerning some of the characters' personalities). It could be worse, but it could be a lot, lot better.
The mere fact that 90% of the ring-outs was caused by U7 speaks volumes of how the viewer's suspension of disbelief is put into question.

That's a huge part of it, but it's also that they made everyone but U7, U6 Saiyans, Hit, Toppo, and Jiren, all incredibly weak. Them taking on U7 could have been interesting if even a single one of them stood a chance. At least have some of the weaker Z fighters taking on these fodder characters to make it a good fight, but it's not even really that, even the weaker characters mostly KO them effortlessly.Unknown wrote:It is a huge minus.

Though I am enjoying the arc I do fully understand that criticism. My only hope is we see more and more as the field dwindles down.
How many fights in Super (if you take out non related scenes) with minor villains... is actually 10 minutes long?precita wrote:These fights don't need to last long. As we said, the "big" fights of the tournament once we get down to 10 remaining fighters will likely go on a number of episodes.
I also find it bizarre people act like old DBZ fights with "underlings" ever lasted more than 1 episode. The only exception is Nappa:
- Vegeta Vs. Cui is 10 minutes long
- Vegeta Vs. Dodoria, if you cut out the flashback scenes, happens in less than 10 minutes
- Vegeta Vs. Zarbon both fights only last an episode
- Guldo's fight is a single episode
- Goku against Burter/Jeice is 1 episode
- Vegeta/Jeice is 1 episode
- Ginyu versus Goku, and then in Goku's body, the actual fights were only 1 episode
- Vegeta/19 is less than an episode
- Vegeta/18 is 1 episode
- Piccolo/17 the actual fight is 1 episode
- Vegeta/Pui Pui is 1 episode
- Goku/Yakon is 1 episode
- Gohan/Dabura if you just count the fight and not the other scenes in the episode, the actual fight is less than 10 minutes
Most fights in Super range from like 2-6 minutes. You get some that are longer than that and stretch out to like half an episode long, the occasional one episode long fights, and usually the big fights of Super are like 3 episodes long with Goku VS Beerus being the exception at like what? 5 or 6 episodes long?gofishus wrote:How many fights in Super (if you take out non related scenes) with minor villains... is actually 10 minutes long?precita wrote:These fights don't need to last long.

Yeah I think the fights in Super with minor villains is slightly less than the fights with minor villains in Z whereas the fights with major villains in Super is MUCH less than the fights with major villains in Z. Remember how many episodes it took to beat Frieza, Semi-perfect Cell, Perfect Cell, Majin Buu, Kid Buu etc? I would say several times more episodes than in Super. The longest fight we got in Super was with Beerus and that wasn't even that long.Jigurashi wrote:Most fights in Super range from like 2-6 minutes.

I'm kind of mixed on it. As for example, I had no problem with like Vegeta VS Zarbon being an episode long, or even Vegeta VS Black II being only like 2-3 minutes long. It really depends on the fight for me. For example, Semi-Perfect Cell VS Vegeta being as long as it was in the anime was terrible to me. I absolutely hated how long that fight seemed when it was essentially just Vegeta clowning Cell for like what? 40 minutes until he eventually lets him go to absorb 18? I didn't need 40 minutes of that. That could have been shortened down to like say 10-15 minutes and It would get the same effect. Then there's things in Super like how I felt Vegetto VS Zamasu could have gone on for around 2 episodes long I feel. I feel that would have helped that saga out. Then add an extra two episodes after that for the finale. Would have helped things not feel so rushed near the end.gofishus wrote:Yeah I think the fights in Super with minor villains is slightly less than the fights with minor villains in Z whereas the fights with major villains in Super is MUCH less than the fights with major villains in Z.
