"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

[Grimlock]

They are like that, looking directly at us because they know people will complain about the episode, specifically power level. They are just waiting, with a homely smile.

Another screenshot for 88

I'm really curious on what they're smiling about. Are they happy to see Gohans back at it ? Are they starting their Park ranging ?

Going by the angle, it's probably(?) Bra.

"While Goku (v: Nozawa Masako) is recruiting Android 17 (v: Nakahara Shigeru), Gohan (v: Nozawa Masako) visits Piccolo (v: Furukawa Toshio) and has started training. Gohan starts attacking fiercely but Piccolo is easily able to intercept the blows. Piccolo senses that while Gohan has great drive, his attacks are unhoned. Gohan envisions the people he wants to protect, like Videl, Pan, and Bulla, and gains a fierce expression. However, his attack on Piccolo is not decisive, and instead he is finally struck down with a heavy blow. Piccolo tells Gohan that overly strong feelings can be like shackles, and that this was to pinpoint the imbalances in his spirit."


This is a translation from Reddit. I don't know how I feel about Piccolo bring able to intercept his blows. The difference in power is too great . Oh, well. I do like the whole concept of fighting with a calm mind considering Gohans always been about strong feelings. I'm really interested in seeing Gohan developing as a fighter. I also hope Piccolo gives him a nice speech.

What's wrong with piccolo blocking his blows the nigga isn't krillin here.
Besides its not like he can't get stronger too

[Vados_chan]

You're all jumping back on the Gohan bandwagon now, but you'll jump straight back off when he loses

Says who?
I been a fan since day one so don't know who you taking about.

[Lapislettuce]

I wonder if we'll see 17 at the start of the episode it was hard saying good bye to him last week after waiting for so long

It's not about losing or winning, it's about having the drive to want to win. To be the character he's always been instead of a rip off. Would I prefer if he won ? Yes. But if he tries his best, then I'll be super proud either way. Also, considering people have stuck with liking Gohan this whole time I don't know where this ridiculous statement came from.

I kinda agree with this (not talking about all Gohan fans of course) but most of them don't even like the character the hate he's been getting before this arc started was insane but now the people who were talking trash about him are suddenly "fans" again,watch them finding something else to complain about soon.

Mirai Trunks says hi.

But seriously for a moment I thought Gohan was going to unlock SSJ Ikari, because it would be the perfect explanation that SSJ Ikari is unlocked by the will of protecting someone(something like that)

Because ss Gohan is leagues above Piccolo. It might end up being base Gohan though.

Piccolo can, but it's not like he's known for big boosts from training.

[perucho1990]

Gohan envisioning Bulla/Bra doesnt make sense, it shouldve been Goten instead, for me that was like telling us Gohan will be more important than Vegeta in the ToP.

[lord godly da don]

So I was right about ep. 86-88 taking place at the same time so hopefully my prediction about ep. 90 is also true and we get to see universe 7 training and going over Gohan's strategy in the room of spirit and time (fingers crossed)

Is a good thing I'm not one of those fans,I'm one of the few who didn't mind Gohan not participating in u6 or getting owned by frieza,as long as his character is good and not boring,I'm fine, through I'm not fan of the the constant father or figther switching dilemma, piccolo better smacked some senses to Gohan, and teach him to balance his life with training and his family, because I'm getting sick of Gohan lossing forms, because we already saw 2 times,ss2 and ultimate,a 3 times would make his character a moron and is backpedaling at it finest.

Not by the preview he isn't besides this is super almost every character on the team is going to get stronger by the time the tournament starts besides its been awhile since we seen him so who to say he didn't get stronger.

[kinisking]

You're right, if they say he's gotten stronger than I'll accept it but otherwise it seems a little weird.

[Ki Breaker]

Damn, Gohan straight up cut piccolos arm off went SS2 and mystic the same episode..
88 is more than likely going to be hella good

[Freeza9000]

I always wanted to see SSJB KK Goku v. Hit accompanied with the Genkai Toppa opening. As for the new leaked images for next episode, it seems like this training is gonna be quite intense! SSJ2 Gohan, Piccolo'a cloning technique, and Makankosappo FTW!

Well, Bra is a new life. Gohan himself said she needed to be protected when she was born. I hope he actually does think of Goten in the episode though. I miss their brotherly bond.

Gohan's still pissed aout Goten saying the Great Saiyaman isn't cool
