It wasn't fully translated, but go back a few pages, alakazam^ did it, and Herms tweeted the important parts.

Me too, and with her likely being mentioned in the next episode, i'm hoping the anime will go ahead and show her already. There's a chance.
Chuquita wrote:*Wishes Chi-Chi were there to hear Gokû say nice things about her, but will still gladly take the positive GoChi moment anyway.* Maybe they can do one of those scenes that flashes over to where Chi-Chi sneezes and wonders who was talking about her.
I wonder what was being discussed for Goku to bring her up that way? and also that bit about Piccolo "realizing" something afterwards.

I'm just happy to get some positive GoChi for a change after how Super's been treating her. This scene's gonna be so cute to watch! Doki doki waku waku.

Why wouldn't he be? He was as strong as #17, who was stronger than #18, and he even trained for the Cell Games after that.

I do like 18, but I like Piccolo more. He's the one I'm most excited to see brought on board Team Beerus. (New character Beerus said was his toughest opponent I'm not all that interested in atm.)

Now that i think about it, Vegeta's line about the nature of female Saiyans could be foreshadowing...nah, let's not go there.
In any case, it's the first time Goku openly says he likes Chi-chi and why. And it makes a lot of sense.

So what's Zuno (ズノー) a pun for? I love all this new stuff about the Universe. I love how there's a B plot which has the potential to be better than the A plot. A trip with Jaco will be an opportunity for him to brag about his knowledge of Universe, while annoying the hell out of the underwear sisters.

I guess this also proves Piccolo is stronger than Artificial Human #18.

What highlight all he did was getting one shotted like a bitch in the movie and beating worthless fodder anyway happy piccolo and buu are getting a chance to fight hopefully get some power ups in the process also piccolo had alreadey surpassed the android duo.

Actually...hmm. Piccolo coming back into the fold, possibly some further history on how the heck the Namekians got/came up with/whatever the Dragon Balls in the first place...maybe there was actually something more to that 'Namekian book of legends' thing from Super's take on Battle of Gods after all?

I'm so relieved we get Gokû explaining why he likes Chi-Chi. Up until now Super had me so worried for the canon ship, (because fanon ships can't fully sail and seeing how depressing GoChi had become left me concerned) but knowing he really likes her personality is sweet.

Yea. It's good to see. Let's see how anime portrays it.

I also think it's funny that one of the Tournament rules is ドーピングも禁止 (No Doping).
It's like Dragonball is keeping up with current news or something,

Well, in the Super intro they have him smiling with Goten when she is yelling at him, so I always figured he liked that she was bossy and sort of laughed it off. If not for the super sad scene with him outside the house (which I'm still going to headcanon as never happening), I always figured that he never took her moods too seriously and secretly kind of liked it. It is good for him to say he likes her being strong-willed.

I was beginning to think he forgot about his potential being higher then Goku&Vegeta so at least he acknowledged that.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

One now actually has to wonder how often Goku makes it a point to annoy Chi Chi just to get her a little riled up, if he likes it.
...Actually, given that Goku is still so childlike, that's...not really too out there with how little boys often are towards girls they like. His annoying her is like his brand of flirting!

Re: iireality
That "outside the house" scene was heartbreaking. One more reason Gokû saying in this chapter that he likes Chi-Chi's personality is a relief to me. Canon ships are set after all, and knowing despite rough patches the two of them do love each other is good.

So much cool info. I had a feeling that the Super Dragon Balls where the original Dragon Balls. It would be cool to see on who is the original creator of the Dragon Balls now.

So could someone explain me about the outside the house thing to me?

Knowing Goku, i really can't picture him living with a different kind of woman. He definitely wouldn't like someone weak and mellow.
Now i see under a new light the scene after he left with Whis, saying he was not worried and that Chi-chi would understand because it's Chi-chi, hinting at his preferences already. And the way she reacted and accepted it also implied she doesn't mind that Goku is so hard to keep on a leash either.

In the end of episode 15 he was afraid to enter the house because she would teach him a lesson (since he ditched his job). Didn't think it was a big deal, just a gag.
