I hope it's a different kind of tournament as opposed to the ordinary 1v1 style, it sounds like that's the case. A Hunger Games style team tournament sounds unique and fun for this series. It'd probably be a much easier way of handling the many new characters that will be involved.

I really didn't think this arc would come so soon though it sounds like an end game kind of arc.
Yeah, and I hope it's not. I could see them ending Super and focusing on spin off'ss, though...

We don't know if it's going to be 2 vs 2.

We only know that there will be team battle.

No one said Magetta was a good character, as Vegeta said he is just a can
Who cares what Vegeta says. Magetta is actually well liked. Trunks and Goten have nothing special about them and no history. All the others have something special about them.

We dont need any more Saiyans and 70% are non Saiyan which is great and hopefully it will show all Saiyan lovers why I think the non Saiyans are the best and most interesting fighters.
lol so Magetta is a good character but Goten and Trunks aren't... speaking about delusion.

I findt it very weird Magetta has gotten better treatment than Cabba.

Magetta fought better vs SSJ Vegeta in the anime than Cabba did during the U6 Tourney, and he didnt get owned by Yamcha in the baseball game. :think:

Worse than monsters. Vast life is child's play to them, and destroying an entire universe just because they lost puts so much pressure on the fighters of their respective universes to perform.

Or perhaps there should be a coup d'etat to overthrow the 2 Omni-Kings if everyone from every universe joined forces, but I don't think even that would be enough.

Lmao bro I know you're excited about all this but don't put your hopes up. You should have learned your lesson after the U6 arc.

If that were to become the case, I wonder what Goku would think, I mean he was the one that kept on suggesting the multiversal tournament so it'll automatically be his fault, then again Toriyama did say Goku doesnt care for anything so long as he gets a good fight so theres that :lol:

Magetta only fought better because they made that cube so Vegeta was feeling a lot of heat in there and Magetta is too heavy but in a regular fight he would lose quickly than Cabba.

IF the universes are at stake then I wonder if it will be taken seriously or played off like comedy if another universe happens to lose and get destroyed.

Like if universe whatever gets destroyed by the Zenos, I'm not sure I'd want everyone to just be like, "Oooooh Zeno. What a wild card~ :lol: "

I think that whats gonna happen is that they wont tell them the whole universe destruction thing until the end of the tournament and then one of the Zenos will feel sorry about the fighters and will end up fighting the other Zeno, that's the simplest argument and we all know Dragon Ball Super is everything but complex.

After we see what they do on a whim, I want them to be overthrown..

No. those Omni-King's are savagely ruthless if they would destroy Universes that lose. If this is indeed the final arc, I see the fighters turning on the 2 Omni-Kings, and they would be eventually written as villains in my prediction. I think this Arc would be longer than the FT Arc, because if Universes are at stake, I think there would be episodes dedicated to them training to have a better build up for the tournament of death.

Calling it now, we'll either be getting Super Saiyan White from via rage or Super Saiyan Angel (angels have white hair like Vados/whis/grand priest) basically a saiyan infused with God ki+an Angel that either fuses himself in a way like how the namekians do it so it becomes permanent.

That's a good idea and would explain the color.

They could unlock it somehow through training with Whis.

He tanked Vegetas Final Flash and Garlic Gun, Magetta has shown durability feats than Cabba.

He really has potential in being SSJB, if he gets to strengthen his body by using his lava power, as some kind of armor.

Cabba will have SSJB, If Frost returns he will get Golden form.

If this is the final saga, I'll be pretty disappointed, as all the sagas were reusing the same ideas: Two tournaments and Future Trunks along with an opponent in Goku's body. Their cores were all previously seen and I was expecting to see fresh new things. Hopefully there will be at least one more saga before Dragon Ball Super meets its end.

I dont think its the final arc, they wouldve announced it in the magazine.

I feel this means we are finally going beyond EoZ after the Multiverse tournament is over(maybe we will get the last episode of Z reanimated).

What if this Multiverse Tournament makes Goku realizes his time is up as being hero and needs a replacement, and thats how Uub will become the new MC?
