Just because Goku's version of the technique is trash doesn't mean the real deal is too. Remember Goku said they had tons of techniques but it took him one year to just learn one.

Kaioshin can teleport without sensing Ki and can teleport between universes, too.

I'm really happy the U2 team didnt turn out to be a full on moe cute magical team, I'm not really a fan of the whole "magical girl" BS in anime as a whole.

Is that a Majin emblem on his forehead? Probably just me seeing things...

They're still hiding Universe 6's members. Hope for a good cause. Don't want the ones concealing themselves to be part of Universe 6's members.

They're a full team of that genre, the otehrs are just the villains of those shows...

Maybe the Yadrats ARE from Universe 2, but they just happended to be at that time in Universe 7 for some research or something?
Would be cool to know Goku had contact to people from another universe so early in the series! :D

The yardrat has the look of the 'Scientist' minion that makes the main bitch all her monsters

Huh, I was sure they'd not give designs to the U10 team (keeping them hooded the whole tourney and losing very early) except for Murichim, it's good to be wrong.

I'm pretty sure Toyotaro and Toriyama went back to the originals series', GT, and the movies to design these characters. Tell me that the female from the Pride Troopers doesn't look like Bojack.

Seems like the gravity for each fighter is the same as their birth planet. This means that who was born on Earth has a small advantage over others.

It doesn't exactly make it fair for Goku or Vegeta who were born offworld in higher gravity :lol: sure they can handle x10 but its still a disadvantage in some ways.

I'm actually just glad Universe 9 got a team together. I didn't want them going out without a fight at least.

I think my theory might have been right....Lord Gin is shaping up to be the next big bad after the tournament.

We know he'll be important from both the camera focusing on his reaction to fight, and from a narrative perspective he;s the odd one out with the four gods by sitting out the fight. That a narrative importance flag right there

Maybe he sat out because he knew they'd get stuck on clean-up duty! :lol:
