No because some people will twist it as true again.

Let it go
How. Why. How. How are these "leaks" still in discussion? Sigh.

I'm curious to see them again because they said that Freeza would betray Goku in order to join U9, and it turned out to be true (though eventually he remained with U7). They also said that the tournament will start in episode 97, which also turned out to be true.

But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Stop telling me to "let it go", I'm not here to pick stupid sides of the fanbase, I'm just here to enjoy the show & I'm interested to see again these previews, fake or not fake. If you are unwilling to contribute, don't even bother to respond.

[spoiler]Episode 96 (25 June)
Emergency Situation AGAIN! The last warrior is THAT man?
Freeza has defected to the 4th Universe. The final person of the 7th Universe is still not decided. Since not much time remains until the tournament, Gokuu tries to head off to the venue with just the 9 members they have, but then a certain someone appears.
Episode 97 (2 July)
Who will survive!? The Tournament of Power finally begins!!
At long last the Tournament of Power will be held in the Void World where the warriors and gods from the 8 universes have arrived. There the Grand Priest reveals something shocking. Any warrior who falls from the arena will disappear on the spot.
Episode 98 (9 July)
Title TBA
The Universes are divided into those who take the proposal of Universe 11, and the Universes who do not. Goku is enjoying the situation as members of Universe 7 are targeted by many warriors.[/spoiler]

It was supposed to be U4. Far as I remember with ep 96 leaks was *Emergency again! U7 lacks one member... and that final member is that man!?* Summary kinda says they were going to the ToP despite their lack of one member and then a certain man appears before them and he becomes the 10th member.

Shida has been posting his beautiful genga (sakuga? I don't really know) so I figured I might as well ask him why there is no blood now while DB and Z had lots of it and he told me that, while in the past it was ok, nowadays, just like we thought, it wasn't allowed because of tv laws (放送コード/housou code).

Maybe this didn't need confirmation but here it is, nevertheless.

They're genga, yeah. :thumbup: Would you mind following up and asking why it seems One Piece, although not as violent as it was, still has a great deal more blood than Dragon Ball. I've always wondered whether it was just grandfathered in, to an extent. My line of thinking has been that Super's gore is just deliberately toned down - regulations aside - for the sake of international companies interested in picking up the show. It's probably more appealing to take a show as is, than pick it up and then have to face the daunting task of censoring it themselves.

Please ask if they might consider adding it for the blurays.

I thought of that and kinda did follow it up. I mentioned One Piece and Kai but in a "oh, I guess they got away with it because they're 'old' titles" sort of way, so... not really a question, I guess :lol: I was hoping he'd reply but I didn't want to bother him with more questions.

They haven't been doing it so I'm guessing they wouldn't start now.

Sidra said he would give the dog "a little" of its energy from destruction, or did it not cite any specific amount?

I do not know if the translation I saw was correct, I do not have Crunchyroll

Thanks for the clarification
It's really interesting, so this Sidra attack was serious.

I would love to see Vegeta using the Gamma Burst Flash in the anime, it would look great with the current animation.

I'm interested in the U7 Saiyans interactions with the U6 saiyans, and of course Goku meeting Jiren, who seems to be that Mortal that is stronger than the Hakaishin.
