I wouldn't have believed he is multiplying his power several folds if it wasn't told, hit wasn't vaporized and Bergamo didn't immediately die either..

There is no need to have it, blue works just fine, specifically if he pulls it off all the time without any visible drawbacks or feeling of considerable power increase
Hit was never hit the Kamehameha. He froze it and got out of the way.

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.

Hit was punched multiple times by him, when gohan punched cell junior they vaporized, at least turned into dust particles

The excitement I feel every time he does SSBKK is a reason to have it. Really the only reason not to is to try to keep the power levels close, and if you don't care about Goku widening the gap then that's no reason at all.

It doesn't matter if it "makes sense" why people aren't being one shot by it. There's a lot of one shotting that should be going around that isn't.

Goku wasn't trying to kill Hit, so why would his punch reduced him to particles. And 50% Freeza didn't reduced Goku, who was 3 million, to particles either.

I am willing to bet that the end result of this tournament is that no Universe gets destroyed, but periodically a multiverse tournament must be held to show that each Universe has strong fighters that can "wow" the two Zenos.

I wonder if this red form is not a transformation but actually Goku pushing it to far. Goku pushs SSBKK to far to the point were he breaks his limit, with his appearance going back to normal with a powerful red aura but afterwords he looses all his power like King Kai said he would.

Maybe Goku will win but at the cost of his power and transformations, not just SSB but also SS. Thats why he needs to train Uub.
Goku's main motive has always been to fight with Uub, he's training him for that, he's just using the "saviour of earth" thing as an extra. I dont want another HxH Gon losing his nen stuff. I doubt Goku would want to train Uub if he doesnt have his powers anymore.

Anyways, has everyone noticed how... unsync the 2 Zeno's are despite being one of the same? I mean whenever they raise their hand, the future Zeno always notices it and tries to correct it by copying his other self, I have a feeling theres gonna be conflict coming up between those 2.

Pretty sure that Mirai Zeno just raises the hand incorrectly because he's used to be on the seat where Present Zeno is. It's a cool detail. I would like them to argue trough.

I guess people on here have been speculating that the Grand Priest is evil, and the one making Zeno think it's ok to destroy universes.
Well, I just came up with something interesting. What if the real reason why the Tournament of Power was created is so the Grand Priest can gather the strongest multiverse warriors for some kind of take over.

It's highly questionable if the strongest warriors in the multiverse can take on the Grand Priest, much less Zeno.

That means the actaual tournament probably will not start until the beginning of May, 3 months after it started which seems very lo g and probably menas the actual tournament will be really long.

They could always anime time it like the 5 minutes on Namek, but the fact that they said 48 minutes which is pretty much the exact length of 2 episodes makes me think that at the very least the Battle Royal is only going to last 2, maybe 3 episodes. What happens after that point who knows, but I doubt the arc will be over. My two guesses are that there are multiple teams with the same number of people still on in the arena so it then turns into somewhat of a more normal tournament with rounds after that, or some stuff goes down and the arc continues past the tournament, similar to the Buu arc.

I'm not excited to a long Battle Royale, but interested in how things will be, hope the plot is not just the tournament though
