Caulifla - Seems like a bad girl but has genius battle sense.

Yeah her and Kale are not the same character.

I'm so happy they're two different people, Caulifla and Kale.

I like both character designs and I didn't want to see one replaced by the other.

No after seeing kid Trunks and Goten get it.
Hybrids Full-blooded
But U6 Saiyans are not exactly like U7 Saiyans. They are born without tails, and probably a lot stronger than the Saiyans on Planet Vegeta.

Well the thing that makes this tricky is Roshi being turned into a Chinese Vampire. They feed on ki and in some fiction become more powerful because of that. Thats going to make Roshi's power fluctuate a lot especially if he feeds off of Goku. That would also play havoc with Goku's power to. Also Tien is fighting normal Roshi while Goku is fighting MAX power. I think we are better off just wait to see how things play out on this one.

Why a potara though?
It's also having the same time limit issues..
Unless you want it for a little bit extended time, which won't matter in the long run, they will defuse before the tournament times up in both cases
Kinisking probably forgot about that garbage potara retcon.

Ok just though of something....did they cut Broly up and used the pieces to make two new characters?

Both have names based on vegetables from the same family as brocali.

Caulifla inherited a similar hair style and the cocky, trash talking attitude Broly had after breaking free of the mind control and before loosing his mind completely.

Kale inherited Broly's passive nature while under mind control and Broly's unbridled rage and insanity along with the Legendary Super Saiyan form.

Ether way they have the potential to be better characters then Broly ever was.

I didn't. I'm pretty sure the tournament is 48 minutes. That's way too long for Gotenks at full power, or even at normal power. Potara is an hour.

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.

To the discussion on the previous page. SS has always been pretty bs. It's supposed to be unlocked through rage, but it's not like they didn't get angry a billion times before that. We don't even see Goten, Trunks, and Vegeta transform in the manga iirc.

And Kale's and the others were removed. Toei's on to us! Quick, scatter! :lol:

I love Caulifla's design from that model sheet. Nice balance of cute and cool. Plus, another Chrono Trigger design making its way into the Dragon Ball world. I wonder if anyone's told her that she has Lavos parked on top of her head? :P

They forgot to remove Damon, but didn't forget Botamo and Magetta, that's the funniest part to me.

Caulifla recruitment stuff in this episode along with the Yurin plot! Woohoo! Hopefully that means we'll get Kale next week or the week after.

Hoping for Kale to be teased at the end or something.
