I think Hit will probably be the one jobbing to Jirei. Vegeta will probably have something to do to awakening the ''lssj'' transformation (i'm still not 100% convinced that Cauli will be the only girl saiyan). I don't think that anyone from U7 will staright up job with no good moments and the only one that could happen to is Buu just for the shock factor. Also the match will surely end with some sort of tie. There is no way they would put the time limit if not for that purpose.

Will Gohan be wearing the orange gi or his green tracksuit to the Tournament of Power? I'm kinda confused.

So you predicted that Tagoma would kill Shisami, Freeza would kill Piccolo, Goku would give up against Hit, Hit would let Monaka win with one punch, Zeno's debut, FT Bulma's death, Goku Black SSR, FT Zeno would destroy Merged Zamasu along with FT Trunks timeline?!

Not gonna mention Goku losing twice against Beerus in BOG and Freeza kill Vegeta in ROF, because these happened in the Movies too...

I mean, he wore the green tracksuit in the opening when he was meditating and then in the next shot when he's walking to the tournament stage with his other team members, he's wearing his orange gi. Make up your goddamned mind Toei!

I wouldn't take the opening too seriously here dude we see him in his bang in the ending while the opening doesn't.

Well given Goku's track record...he aint got a chance in hell of winning.

He lost to Beerus, He would have lost to Frieza is not fore Whis, had Hit been serious from the onset Goku would likely have lost their match even with KK x10 and even with that limitation he could not beat Hit, Black draw with or beat him in every encounter they had and Fused Zamasu put him in a no win situation that can never be undone. Goku's track record in Super is terrible, hell he even only beat Copy-Vegeta because they destroyed Copy-Grill and the Core with him!

But I've said it before, in DB Goku could beat the bad guys on his own with some help if they cheated, in Z Goku and the rest had to work together to beat the big bads and in Super the enemies are so powerful and /or smart its a miracle out heroes are not dead yet. They have only won anything because A) a god helped or B) the enemy was not a villain and was dignified in victory.

Also every new power-up Goku has got in Super has almost immediately been matched (Hit) or more often out right surpassed (Beerus and Frieza). If that trend continues with this "New Power" Goku's getting he'll be lucky if he manages to even break even with Jiren.

That's am interesting angle to look at it with..
But then again Yamcha was also a bad guy starting out, maybe bad guy team isn't really the intent just a coincidence
Yamcha wasn't all that bad to be honest.

Tien was a jerk though. People forget when he was first introduced, he and Chiaotzu were running a scam business where they would go from village to village, and a beast would tag along with them. The beast would terrorize the village. Tien and Chiaotzu would then go to the village's elder and they would promise to take care of the beast as long as they get compensated handsomely in return. They would then capture the beast, get paid, and go to another village with the beast with them again to do the same thing again.

Man, those guys were jerks.

Tenshinhan was literally an assassin when he was introduced. He was definitely a "bad guy" but people don't think of him on the level of Piccolo, Vegeta or the Androids, Buu etc. because he was never trying to take over or blow up the world. He had no world domination plans in mind like the others, but he was a killer.

Krillin wasn't exactly the bastion of justice either and Roshi is a serial sexual assaulter.. yeah I'd say Goku definitely has a team more on the "bad" side...

Sorry but I said it before but I could see Yurin being related to Tsuru-Senin, it could explain why Roshi got possessed( Roshi is the person Tsuru Senin hates the most), and would find very insulting Tenshinhan has opened a Crane School.

Yes pretty much predicted most of that,Piccolo always sacrafices himself for Gohan nothing new there,predicted that Vegeta would get owned by Hit and Goku will have the final fight with him,also predicted Bulma's death and so did many others.

Given how the summary and title specifically noted Yurin’s beauty, I think Muten Roshi gets possessed because he’s trying to flirt with her or something (maybe Yurin has some kind of weird magic that makes anyone who likes her into zombie-like, and she’s actually not a bad person). Since Tenshinhan have no interest in such things, he won’t be possessed, and obviously, so is Goku.

Krillin behaved like any other 13 year old boy when we first met him, he just teased Goku and had some interest in girls, there's nothing wrong with that.

Yamcha being a desert bandit who robbed people at least puts him in the "criminal" side, although as far as we know he never killed anyone.

Anime openings aren't supposed to be exact representations of events happening in the shows, that's well known. What characters are wearing is the least of its worries.

That could also happen, Roshi and Ten disciples were trying to flirt Yurin and she wants payback. We know Ten only cares for Chatzou :lol:



Btw Toei cast Miyuki Sawashiro to voice Pudding in OP, what are the chances she gets to voice Caulifla in Super? She already voiced characters that were punks(Jolyne in JoJo).

Miki got cast for Zamasu around the same time he got cast to voice Pedro in OP :think:

Piccolo always sacrifices himself for Gohan ? Outside of the original time and super, when has he done that in canon ? Or even GT?

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.
