"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

[Lord Frieza]

I can wait to see the look on Rou's face when the Grand Priest drops the bombshell.

Grand Priest: "Oh I forgot to mention, if all your fighters are eliminated before the end of the tournament, we's perform that universe's destruction immediately."

Rou, Sidra, and the whole U9 team "WHAT THE F...!" (Poof).

[Grimlock]

I just wanna see the destruction of a Universe in details, as Future Trunks saga didn't provide me that.

[Krillin1994]

I know Whis isn't supposed to get involved but he can rewind 5 mins without creating a new timeline, time travel has been shown to be > zeno otherwise a second one wouldn't have stemmed from trunk's time travel.

Would other angels be aware if Whis used his staff to rewind 5 mins? that could add an extra 5 episodes.

[HeroR]

I'm more surprised by the amount of bitterness over Krillin. I guess so many were rooting for him.

I personally see this as an interesting twist and I like Krillin.

Krillin is a likeable character. He knows his limits and when he's called upon he always gives it his all no matter how outmatched he is. I can respect that.

People don't like it because the writers seemed to be building the concept of strategy over power when they focused on Krillin during those recruitment episodes. He beat Gohan in a spar with ring out rules, and he did amazingly well against Goku even though Goku was holding back in his blue form. Not to mention the 2 part episode where Krillin overcame his fears in those mystical woods.

People just expected more given the character build up, and I don't blame them for that. It is an interesting twist, but there are a few more episodes until he is eliminated so hopefully he makes due.

But we don't even know how he goes down.

Are you though? People just want something to vent and be angry about about. No matter who would have been knocked out first the reactions would have been all the same, "what's the point of re-introducing 17 if he gets knocked out", "they knocked out #18 so they can big up the female Saiyans", "all this hype around Gohan and he gets knocked out booo Toei just trolled us" etc etc.

Anyway, I agree it is very interesting, if Krillin gets DQ's cuz he is helping #18 out maybe her life is in danger and he then see's and without hesitation fires those three and one of those kills the opponent haven't had anything like that before so I hope it goes down similar.

Cali is no surprise. She's a salt factory at this point.

Krillin is Dragon Ball's original butt monkey, when Yamcha isn't around, so him going first is both surprising and not surprising. But I do see your point. Whoever goes first would get a reaction.

I think I have an idea.

Ok picture your standing....in an city. You look up and see a tiny dot of light, almost like a star. That light rapidly grows until it fills sky, blotting out the sun itself. The sky had turned into pure light.

Then you blink.....when you open your eyes you have a mere moment to realize that the light is just a few inch from your face. Before you can even think "your going to dye" the light has vaporized you, the city, the planet and what was left of your solar system. Everything that you knew existed and more had now bin reduced to this nothingness.

All that remains is the Omni-king and his energy, which travels on at comprehensible speeds to destroy the rest of creation.

[kidhero1000]

Shut up. If Tien was first, you'd be all gloating and proclaim Krillin is stronger.

Take your L with modesty and have some honor.

Damn this Krillin Vs Tien debate is heating up more than ever

[GreatSaiyaJeff]

This is random but I just realized when we abreviat Tournament of Power as TOP, the stadium looks like a top. It's sad I just realized that.

Exactly, which is why how they perform is more important than how long they stay in the tournament.

[kinisking]

Yeah I'd wait before complaining about Krillin. This isn't going to be an ordinary ring out. I'm also 55 percent certain that this tournament is going to lead into something bigger.

[perucho1990]

I'm just glad 18 seems safe for a while. I'd like to see her get some good battles and "revenge" for Krillin before she goes down.

I have the feeling 18 is going to get "gangbanged" by the Pride Troopers, she will overwhelm Coccote but other Pride Troopers will come to help her.


It would be a nice twist if Krillin defeats Gyum and later he kills one of the Pride Troopers in order to save 18, getting DQd in the process.

[Lord Frieza]

Just realized, if U7 were not already the most hated team in the tournament, Krillien killing someone, even by accident is going to make them look even worse.

Also.....if you only get disqualified for killing.....whats stopping someone from pulling a "Frieza" and blowing up all the weaker guys in one shot? Yes you'd get disqualified but thats only one fighter for the price of a lot of defeated enemies.

[OLKv3]

Krillin is going to fucking murder someone, and get DQ'd because of it. Krillin is hardcore

[The gr]

I'm betting krillin way of being disqualified was a Tori idea and we should expect in Toyo version,is sure an epic way to send off krillin imo

[TheDipDap1234]

Some people think the order of how the U7 fighters will get ringed out was spoiled in the opening (Krillin was holding the first star Dragon Ball).

Some people also think the order was spoiled in the new ending (right after Goku and Gohan, the first U7 fighter to be seen in the ending is Krillin, then Tien, then Vegeta).

I honestly don't think they would spoil something like this in the opening, nor in the ending.

They should bring them back to life or rewind fix it to avoid this gaming of the rules.

[precita]

There's no point in reviving whoever Krillin kills if their whole universe gets erased anyway, meaning all 10 fighters and the millions of people in their universe might die either way.

[Vados_chan]

Kale was pointless, gets all the promotion but it's Caulifa ends up hogging the spotlight and getting SSB

And is there any doubt that the destroyed universes will be restored with the SDBs?

Fully agreed on this. It really just comes down to the execution and what Kuririn accomplishes within the next two episodes that'll truly determine how I feel about this.

What confirmed she's getting SSB?
