Nice one, Toei.
I just love how there are just people that really want to exaggerate an extremely minuscule problem in the episode.
If you're fine with it, then okay. Not my problem dude. I ain't.
As if I really need to see 18 kicking a literal trash tier out of the ring. And it's not like we're never gonna see 18 have her shining and mark out moments that could potentially get the audience wet and the NEP proves this.

it looked like energy from the ki ball he was making, which it seems Gohan is gonna save krillin from.

Also is Roshi's Kamehameha gonna impress the gods? seems more like Roshi's wave shape going by Rumoosh, than krillins.

I'm just happy they are showing us everyone who gets ringed out, helps make keeping score easier.

I think we can forgive them losing consecration, they just saw Team U9 and Universe 9 get Erased in cold blood. Thats kind of distracting.

Plus I suppose it's literally seconds in which that happens.

It is disappointing to think that they can't maintain the form for 42 minutes without straining themselves that much. especially considering Vegeta has trained for like 5 years with the form.

So manga redeemed? So is the stamina drain better or worse than SSJ3?

Well since they pop in and out if Blue pretty easily I'd imagine it's a lot better than 3.

Also, Manga redeemed? Was the manga under fire for it's stamina drain thing?

It's absolutely hilarious, defensive anime fans were saying the manga was ignoring Toriyama's own words by making SSB drain stamina

I think there is more and more evidence coming in, that this might change in the near future, most notably:
- the talk about power rivaling that of the gods (starting with Gowasu after Gokus first match with Zamasu and again in the Zen exhibition match)
- the upcoming fights (which most probably need to be won) against people who either were considered potential future GoDs or have beaten them in an arm wrestle
- Frieza deflecting and Goku enduring the energy of destruction during the ambush.

I do think, they are making this a point of importance, because it will be relevant in the near future.

Yes goku Said to hit ssb was draining in u6 iirc
    I just find it funny that when the manga had reveled ssb had draining stamina,every one freak out like having a meltdown in twitter, even calling the author retarded when the anime did it, everyone is ok, ,it just a proof toriyama contradict himself, he's doing this since the beginning of dbg

    Oh God yes, you should check out the threads and see for yourself. The most laughable parts where the emphasis on perfect ki control and the 101 theories on how SSB was a form with no weaknesses and Toyotaro was a poor cause for a manga writer and this was a perfect example why, etc etc. Man I love when this happens.

    That bat fellow was cute... and I like the Trio de Dangers too.

    We didn't see the short bunny girl fight, how did she get knocked out?

    But something is really unsettling by how the Grand Priest looked, and how Universe 9's angel smirked after their erasure....

    It was implied she was knocked out by 18. Off screen of course.

    It seems One Piece will have a TV Special on August 26th. I think that means Dragon Ball Super will have a break as it will air at 9:00am?

    Speaking of TV Specials, when the hell will Dragon Ball Super have one of its own!? :crazy:

    I'll be pretty disappointed if those guys don't turn out to be villains after the tournament. They seemed a little too happy about Universe 9 getting erased.
