I'm wondering the same thing ! maybe she was getting beaten up and she distracted Krillin.

Not to mention Goku has never met a girl from his own species before.

Yeah basically the keywords there is Cauli training to transform into a ''Super Saiyan'' maybe Goku's teaching her something that has to do with SSJ like she did it wrong and shouldnt be done like how she did it.
I think she's just showing Goku what she can do or Goku requests her to show him what she can do and then Kale gets all jealous from there.

Didn't an animator post a doodle of Goku and Caulifla?

I also wonder what the heck Cabba is doing in the midst of all this, probably relieved that Goku has taken the girl trouble of his hands I bet!

My guess is that Gium (or whatever his name is) hits 18, and Krillin gets so pissed he accidentally kills the guy and gets disqualified for it.

I'm surprised Kale is going down so early ! she's the first one to hype Jiren then i wonder who is gonna be next to hype him up even more i have a feeing it's gonna be Vegeta or Frieza.

Surprised there's not many comments about why Kale goes berserker...

If she is indeed hot for Caulifla (There are still other possibilities) then it kind of paints a bad stereotypical picture I would think. I don't want to turn this into "that" kind of discussion, but it's at least worth mentioning.

I also don't understand why people are upset about Goku wiping out U9 by himself. He was the guy they had the biggest beef with as the one who "came up with the tournament". He likely eliminates them because they attack him out of a grudge. We already know that one of the wolves have him surrounded.

As for being Goku and Vegeta centric, welcome to Dragon Ball! You must be new to the series! 8) :lol:

Even I'm disappointed that Krillin gets eliminated first. I have a soft spot for the little fella. He better go out swinging.

Its the main reason why I enjoyed Toyo's version of Goku and Vegeta taking turns in fighting Merged Zamasu, and now I'm loving what the anime is doing with him. I am tired watching shonen shows that has the MC on edge wanting to save everyone forgetting their own desires and being a hero.
Bottom line, Goku... keep being you, you selfish awesome bastard you.
No, I like selfish Goku. I don't like sociopathic Goku. which he has been in Z
Don't see how him training someone who asked for it as being a sociopathic. Skew priorities perhaps, but not a sociopathic.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Can't blame em, especially not like this..
I for one hated the idea of her attaining SSB and that's the news everyone had to speculate on, which they did..
Seeing how odd it would be for this to happen I concluded it can't be true, but not everyone did and that's okay, Why feel bad for something which could have turned out to be very real that moment..

We can't judged either way until the episode airs.

So there are two different legit summaries? Whatever, putting the two together looks like Krilin will go to help 18 and be disqualified for killing someone with the Kienzan. Man, we were telling that it was not a good move in this tournament.

Caulifla wants to learn the blue from Goku, Kale gets jealous and goes berserk. Then Jiren takes her out, the most powerful guy had to take someone big. I don't know if Caulifla will go blue, I wouldn't mind, but I think she's gonna last far in the tournament.

The problem is Kuririn shouldn't be dumb enough to be throwing Kienzans around in a "no killing" tournament. He's got other powerful attacks--the Kakusandan had everyone who could sense Ki freaking out, for instance.

Hype has nothing to do anymore eh... Fem Broly gets taken out so fast despite the hype she recieved, in the OP, in the magazine to the point of mentioning ''watch out for these 3 characters'' this is bad... I feel like Gohan,17,Freeza and Vegeta can be taken out at anytime now. Literally the only safe ones are Goku and Jiren.

My problem wasn't with Caulifla learning this while in the tournament (there's only 47 minutes left in the tournament). It was her learning it in general. It's inevitable that she's going to learn it at some point. It should take her years to get to the point where she can go Blue. Not just a few weeks/months. It's not like SSJ where emotion and tingly sensations are how you achieve it. This technique seems to be the embodiment of hard work and lots of control. Control that took. Goku and Vegeta years of training and battles to achieve.

You don't give someone that transformation just because you want a powerful female character in your series.

He is leading. He's just not leading all the guys who are stronger than him.

So Krillin is disqualified, not thrown out? Does that mean the Kienzan will finally kill someone?
