Piccolo has been getting promotion though. Fighting in episode 88 and 90 while getting stronger and creating combo moves with Gohan. Piccolo was also with Gohan in the opening. I still predict a tag team between Gohan and Piccolo to win it
I predict a Gohan and Piccolo tag team as well but them winning it? far, at best I see Goku,Vegeta and Freeza as the last 3 guys.

Well not quite, the only thing confirmed is Goku wants Freeza we still don't know whether Freeza actually joins...MainJPW wrote:Y'know, now that Freeza's been confirmed there really is no reason we couldn't get Goten and Trunks over Roshi and Tenshinhan, given Gokus reasoning for excluding them in the first place I doubt the boys would be any harder to work with than the guy who murdered his best friend before his eyes and committed mass, planetary genocide.
The character interactions will definitely be interesting as Krillin and Piccolo sure as hell aren't gonna like this decision.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
I think Goku and Vegeta already surpassed Freezer after their ROSAT training, though we don't really know what was the gap between Freezer and Goku/Vegeta at the time. If Toriyama wants he could have him being equal with Goku/Vegeta and it could still make sense.HeroR wrote:Huh? You are aware that Goku is stronger now than he was in Resurrection 'F'?

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
I dont take that as he is a lot stronger physically now but that he got used to Hit and learned to adapt to give him the upper hand, its his experience that jumped, because far as I remember, Hit killed him, he just played it smart.HeroR wrote: Huh?

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
There are two things I'd like to see out of Frieza's return:
1) Give him some character development. Have the outstanding circumstances for some change on him.
2) Let him live.
These were my two biggest issues with RoF; Frieza was exactly the same with no change and the status quo was right back as soon as the movie ended with nary a sign he'd ever come back. Now how would you go about letting Frieza live after all the mayhem and chaos he's caused? Well that's simple. If Universe 7 wins (and the other universes aren't destroyed), use the Super Dragon Balls to wish back everyone he and his subordinates killed, thus undoing his reign of terror. If Beerus gets a pass I could see the writers giving one to the big F. In two months' time he'll be living at Capsule Corp too.

Aside from Goku,everyone will play their part then get eliminated.namekiansaiyan wrote:Now prepare for the biggest death stare ever from Piccolo and Vegeta to show Frieza his place.
This situation could have easily been prevented by having 12 fighters with Yamcha included as well.
It would be a disgrace to the rest of the team apart from 17 if they go out early but Frieza lasts a long time as they are apart of the main cast.Cursemark505 wrote:I hope you're not implying that Boo is a part of the main cast because he most definitely isn't.

This is a disgrace to the main cast.
It would make no sense for the weaker characters to last long against an army of warriors far more powerful than them.
People were complaining about them being in the tournament anyways.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
Hit took hits from a Kaioken 10x and was still able to fight. Round 2, Goku floors his butt with one Kamehameha. Plus, are you saying that Goku Black is weaker than Golden Freeza?SansrivaaL wrote:I dont take that as he is a lot stronger physically now but that he got used to Hit and learned to adapt to give him the upper hand, its his experience that jumped, because far as I remember, Hit killed him, he just played it smart.HeroR wrote: Huh?

I think you severely downplay Goku and Vegeta's growth since Resurrection 'F' was years ago at this point and Golden Freeza, while powerful, was still in the same tier as Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan. It wasn't the different between Super Vegeta and Perfect Cell. It was closer to Master Super Saiyan Goku and Perfect Cell.
But, I won't say anymore since this is off-topic and I know the mobs hate strength debates here.

You're right, he basically said it's not just a contest of strength and claims the boys are inexperienced.Totamo wrote: Goku said experience or did I get that wrong.
My thing is, if he's going to go for Freeza instead of Yamcha for instance, whose plenty experienced, then he has to be picking Freeza precisely because he's powerful, right?

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
I cannot see that happening in any timeline... but Freeza being part of the Z warriors isnt something surprising, half of them used to be villains, Freeza's is just way worst but Goku's above not forgiving anyone. Fucking Naruto was able to forgive Pain for killing his mentor/master Jiraiya, you can bet a million zennies Goku doesnt hold anything bad against Frieza, its not like Krillin's dead or anything.BlueBasilisk wrote:There are two things I'd like to see out of Frieza's return:

A funny scenario would be all of them on the losing end, Frieza thinks of something new like "I heard a legend before etc etc... the etc saiyan of legends" and he tries to kill Krillin to trigger Goku's new form.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
freeza has far more experience than all of them though. Freeza is cocky, he ain't stupid.MainJPW wrote:You're right, he basically said it's not just a contest of strength and claims the boys are inexperienced.Totamo wrote: Goku said experience or did I get that wrong.

This anime is shameful. Those who dare to compare it to any portion of the manga have hams in the eyes without a doubt.
Obviously, it is poor, undeniably poor .. Incongruent, packed with fanservice, poorly managed in rhythms, randomic power lever, characters ooc, any original ideas ..
This is another proof: choose to the last moment to bring back a character that was already been used and reused by any media in tha conect to the franchising to exhaustion only to please its insatiable fans.

This tournament might not even start until July which is about episode 97. How long will the tournament be?
Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
Can't say I agree. As a fighter, Freeza is the least experience outside of maybe the androids. He relies on raw strength and when that fails, he nukes the planet. While I may call Gohan a mediocre fighter, Gohan's battle experience is superior to Freeza since Gohan can do more than just rage quit when he's at a disadvantage. I mean, he didn't even realized that his form was leaking energy. It's worse than Future Trunks' noob mistake of not realizing the weakness of his Ultra Super Saiyan form.Totamo wrote: freeza has far more experience than all of them though.

And this change, like it or not, is not last minute since this isn't like the manga days. Super's script is written months ahead of time. Freeza's return was going to happen from the jump.

Freeza is extremely cocky, that's his flaw.
Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
Frieza's return was undoubtedly decided at the last moment (up to a few weeks ago), AFTER setting the tournament, the 10 participants, having posted a trailer, the poster that show all of them, and countless other articles about the tournament that showed Boo as the tenth fighter. Boo was a much more interesting character fo the tournament , with a more varied power of mind and solidarity with the protagonists. Freeza is demanded only by the irreducible fansHeroR wrote:

I trust the hope that it is a self-concluding filler
