He'll probably get a few KO's but other than that not expecting much from him this arc.
Barely in the OP ? He was the second most prevalent by far. It's just that the opening was massively Goku vs Jiren centered. He'll do well, just not as well as Goku.

Bit of exaggerattion when it was only a couple seconds of training montage followed by a little bit of him fighting the Telletubby compared to Goku who also got those training montages aswell as transforming into SS/SSGSS and all the new red form/power up/whatever and we even got to see Goku fight Bergamo. I'd hardly call Vegeta prevalent that OP.

Well of course Gokus going to be the most relevant in the OP. He's the main character. It's always been this way(besides for the openings with a Gohan focus ). That hasn't stopped other characters from doing relevant things though. I'm not saying Vegeta will do better than Goku (lol), but I'd expect great things from the second main character of Dragonball super.

Does anybody know if Hits time skip will work in a place where time is void? If not I think the odds might not be in his favor :/

How could anyone know?
It might not work if they don't want it to work, because of the Tournament Arena being in a place with no time-flow, but the match still lasts 48 minutes so it could work.

During the second fight with Goku, Vados mentions that Hit stores time in another dimension and that he can access whenever he wants, so it should work.

Even then, the fact characters are moving and doing stuff and aren't frozen in place should indicate that while they are in a timeless void, it's still affecting them somewhat, so the Tokitobashi should work against them since Hit is just stopping them relative to him, not relative to the void.

17 looks more like Goku's sidekick in the poster than Vegeta Image

Cuz i'm seeing way too many images of pre-Z stuff like Desert Bandit Yamcha and Tienshinan's sensei.

Even if it were just this, i would be delighted. :)
The source does say it's about the story after the Buu arc.
What will it be called?

I dont know what you guys are talking about, you're literally on the same page.... we all know Goku's gonna be the main focus of the arc, OP was full of him fighting justice graysuperman Jiren, the OP song is from Goku's perspective, tease of Goku new form/mastered KK or whatever the hell that is, this arc putting Goku in a bad light where everyone see's him as evil/villain (this'll be full on about Goku) What I find odd is why didnt they go the extra effort of showing Vegeta in his SSJB.. why just SSJ.... but we all know he'll be the 2nd prominent of this arc since... its Vegeta... love him or not he's the 2nd main character next to Goku, that aint going anywhere, but compared to whats coming... lets say Goku gets 80% of about everything, 10% for Vegeta, then everyone in the team shares the remaining 10%.
Expect Vegeta to give a grand speech to the characters calling Goku a bad guy/evil.

That would be funny :lol: like U6 arc all over again when they fucked up Boo, tho he wasnt really that hyped up... he was still shown that he'll do something and actually fight.

I'm expecting Vegeta to get his badass moment of the saga, but beyond that, Goku really seems like he's completely front and center for this saga. Goku is the getting the hype and Goku's fight with Jiren takes up roughly half the opening.

Well technically Jiren was the second most prevalent character. But yeah, Vegeta wasn't barely in it. I do find it interesting that Vegeta isn't getting much hype, but Kuririn, Gohan, and 17 seemingly are.

I won't mind actually, he isn't exciting in the slightest for me..
Although his fight with piccolo was cool but that's all

We aren't on the same page at all. He seems to be having low expectations for Vegetas involvement and I completely disagree. He'll be extremely relevant. I also disagree with your percentages. Vegeta gets much more screen time in proportion to Goku. It'll most likely be 50% Goku. %, 25% Vegeta , and 25 % everyone 3lse.

I disagree with you there, extremely relevant? doubt it, a little relevant compared to the others? yes. You expect too much of Vegeta when he barely shows any interest in fighting now that he's all daddy up'd.

From all the universe 7 team 17 is the only one who is safe from getting fucked since he's a returning character and many people were waiting for him to finally join the fighters,he won't be the most relevant obviously but i have him 3rd place with Gohan as relevance goes,Vegeta is only second because he gets to be defeated by Jiren so Goku can beat him that's all. :D

Extremely relevant based on what exactly? 6 episodes in and Vegeta has done squat in this arc, it has all been about Goku he is the driving force behind this arc. Even the Battle Royale itself will about Goku as he is gonna hunted and targeted down. I fail to see what sort if relevance Vegeta has in the arc other then just being one of the fighters he will get a couple coolish moments and that will be it. And back to the OP I did just some rough counting the other Z fighters have a total of 12 seconds of screen time and Vegeta a whopping 7 seconds.

Nah. Goku and Vegeta are the only safe ones. 17 is just in a much better spot than anybody else.
