After so long, it's finally happening.
And, judging from their faces, it looks like both Kale and Califa develop affection for Cabba... Two Saiyans fighting over a person? Nightmare.
Nice we can't get an iconic female in the series without linking them romantically to an existing cast member...
It's almost like that's the only reason they keep them around...
We know this. Did you not know this?

The only reasons the human z fighters are around is to fight or be fodder. vegeta is the jobber.

Hell, Goten only exists because Gohan grew up.

Everybody in dragon Ball has a role to fulfill, Toriyama doesn't think longterm.

It has to be since everyone would end up suspecting why Goku chose Freeza of all people to participate in the tournament to the point where Goku would end up spilling the truth out of his mouth. Which makes the whole plot point of Goku trying to hide the truth from the members all the more dumb.
Except Goku did tell people and it was Gohan's idea not to.
And Goku agreed to it. He still lied about the whole characters receiving the Zenis instead of just getting straight to the point and telling the truth sooner.
Goku has told 17 and Piccolo. He was also the one who told Gohan in the first place

He even asked gohan and he said no

I wonder when the ToP will start? June or July? This arc has been nearly 15 episodes, and we haven't gotten very far outside the recruitment episodes. I'm not complaining, I like this stuff but I also can't wait until the tournament to start either. :)

It took Goku that long to finally tell 17 the truth after 17 knew that Goku was lying. Even before Goku talked to Gohan, he still didn't tell the truth to Vegeta. So there's that.

Also while She may be Cauli's underling, it looks like Kale is rather pleased she can't go super saiyan right away, then why do you hand out with her Kale?

Also I think I've found Kale's LSS trigger, Cabba x Caulifla....well jealousy is a better "they cried and annoyed me".

The next episode preview says Krillin and 18 are quitting the tournament too. This better just be a misunderstanding, if they're not in the tournament then I'll be even more pissed than the removal of Buu.

What? where did this come from?

EDIT: nevermind, forgot that Goku said it in the NEP. Doubt thats really the case tho.
Probably just a sudden knee jerk reaction from Krillin because Goku nominated Freeza and 18 following up Krillin.

if krilian and 18 are quitting as well, who's going to replace those 2? Cell? Raditz or nappa?
I don't think they're quitting, well, maybe they're curious what the true intentions for the upcoming tournament are. Which is why the Team U7 looked depressed in the NEP.
It's probably a combination of that and finding out who Goku's replacing Boo with...

They find out about *SPOILER* then they become curious about the tourney which leads to Goku spilling the beans.

Tho its impossible that Krillin and 18 are really out, I hope Goku doesnt end up begging them to participate, they arent worth it, take Yamcha and Cell in their place if they're gonna act all scrub and smug about shit again, had enough of Krillin.

Anyone think it's possible Roshi will stay behind? They keep putting a lot of focus on him not being able to be around female characters and there will be many female fighters at this tournament.

Thats the point of this episode to why he's trying to conquer that weakness tho.

And not doing a very good job. He knows Puar is not a human female, and even then he couldn't help himself.

Thats the point, they're showing actual effort instead of just *poof, Roshi's all good against girls now* Roshi isnt so trivial as to think that its really Puar, if he see's a hot chik that hits his strike zone he goes off, visual stimulation.

The rage will be legendary if Vegeta jobs to the teletubbie.

I'm sticking with my prediction of Kale having the hots for Caulifla, iirc Kales profile said that she hates Cabba.

Btw did anyone notice Mojito aka U9 Angel looked angry?

That was a mistranslation, Cabba is the one who gets mad at her.

I love how Zeno's impatience for the Tournament to start and Beerus pissed off with Buu falling asleep again couldn't be more faithful representations of the fanbase.

As for female fighters, I wonder if Helles team will be full of them. It would be something else. :P
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Daishinkan is giving them big hype.

Helles team should be filled with Precure like characters, counter of U11 Pride Troopers, who are Power Rangers parody.
