Is just me or dose Cauliflowa feel more like a U7 saiyan then a U6 one?

Also watching Goku fight Jiangshi is going to be interesting, I think there the only classic monster Goku and Co haven't beaten the snot out of. Also before anyone says it, Jiangshi are vampires that feed on chi i.e. ki. If one attacked Goku they could get very powerful by feeding off him.

Also pretty ironic how this new supposed "Saiyan" is a pun on cauliflower and Broli is pun on broccoli. And considering how cauliflower and broccoli resemble each other.

Cauliflowa is a great name! Keeping the connection to not only Broly, but Cabba too. Can't wait to learn more about her. She looks like fun, or at least more fun than Cabba.

Pretty sure she is going to be my new favourite Saiyajin after Vic Mignogna's Broly.

I third her looking more fun than Cabba; I'm actually excited to see more from possible-gang-leader Cauliflowa.

Edit: I'm also really thinking she's a different character from not!Brolli now though; Cauliflowa seems so confident where not!Brolli is timid.

Yeah they aint even trying to hide the fact that they are naming these characters after vegetables. I mean how is the Funi Dub going to handle this. I think Cauli would be better than flat out saying cauliflowa...sounds atrocious.

Well saiyans have been named after vegetables since forever. So it was never a secret. What's wrong with calling her Cauliflowa? If we can call Piccolo, piccolo, then I don't see why we can't just stick with the food names.

And I thought Gohan's Ultimate form was supposed to be a different way to access his super saiyan state..
So now after transforming into a super saiyan 2 ,he then powers up to Ultimate..I always thought it's the other way around.
I hope Toyotaro will approach this in his own different way. Other than that, Cauliflowa is a nice name, fits her well.

Hope they decide to shorten her name to Kari or something. Karifurawaa is just too awkward.

I understand that, but cauliflowa is too on the nose, it's like calling Vegeta Vegetable. The point is their names are supposed to be puns of the vegetable family not the names themselves.

Fair enough I suppose. I thought the same thing when I learned some of the God and Angel names.

I'm starting to get Power Rangers flashbacks more than when Toppo's squad was introduced...
When Super apparently shoves Goku down our throats:

Nappa? Besdies, Cauliflowa isn't the name. Cauliflower is.

Also, am I the only one that thinks it's ridiculous that we have to wait for Herm's summary? That isn't going to help the discussion much, if at all. I understand subs, but that's going overboard.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Caulifa got quite a big hype, V-Jump wasnt kidding when they put her in the same group as Jiren, Teletubbie should be a strong fighter too.

Piccolo completely redeemed himself, took decades to see him getting a win, and after all the humilliations he got in DBS.

Liked how he chastised Gohan for screwing up in the Buu Saga.

Honestly, I want Caulifla to be called Caulyfa for Funimation. Adding a y would make the connection to Broly's English spelling more apparent and taking away the last l would make her name easier to say. Broly and Caulifla: EH. Broly and Caulyfa: I LIKE IT BETTER.
