You mean him losing to Frost by cheating and the having his win revoked so Vegeta can fight Frost? Or him being taking out by chop sticks to Beerus in the Battle of Gods movie?
That was only in the movie anyways not in super besides everybody jobbed to beerus... goku especially in the first fight
That wasn't the point though from what I got. It's that Piccolo being a character AT likes doesn't really mean much. AT will troll the character if he wants to.

If Piccolo doesn't get a major fight no way will people stand for it. He's not a character you can brush easily aside.

Either way I expect him, at worst, to be treated like Krillin was. We'll see him take out at least 2-3 characters before he goes.

Piccolo and Roshi should use the Mafuba to take out Botamo and Magetta. Botamo in particular can absorb hits, the Mafuba would be perfect to take him out. Piccolo has created objects out of thin air before so it shouldn't be hard to create a rice cooker and bottle.

Then when they're in bottles just throw them off the stage. It would be an interesting scene, Roshi once using it to get rid of King Piccolo and now him and his reincarnation using it to save their universe.

Piccolo needs to take out someone of considerable power. Not some random fodder or nameless mook.

I'd love to see Piccolo get his revenge on Frost in particular.

You really have a hate towards Piccolo for some reason. Far more than any character from what I've seen on your posts. You always show up when he's being discussed to just pile up the hate. Who didn't get owned by Beerus in BoG?

I'm not expecting Piccolo to do much of anything in this tournament, but no need to constantly rub it in.

He's not rubbing it in, he's pointing out that saying "Toriyama likes Piccolo!" means jack all.

Yeah it doesn't mean anything that's true. It's a good point, one that does have historical evidence.

Or just aim the Mafuba off the stage, you don't really need a bottle here.

A friend of mine asked me a question today that made me go "lol wut". Thinking about it again though, I'm actually curious as well. Basically he asked me if the writers are purposely writing Zeno to be more childlike each time. He says he was watching the scene where Zeno first shows up, and while silly, he kind of knew what he was talking about (actually used the word Hakaishin etc) and didn't seem like a clueless child.

It is kind of weird how Zeno had gone from mysterious strong child figure to one of the muppets without a care in the world.

Yeah, I had watched the scene recently to and he did become a little more child like. When he first appears he said things like "I came by because I heard you were all doing something arbitrary. Skipping out on your destruction duties isn't good. Going to have to replace ya'll. Just kidding! No, but seriously I was concerned."

Dude seemed like an actual ruler albeit a very strange one. Now that the grand priest has been introduced we see him act more like a child that needs to be taken care of. It's pretty odd.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed this! Ever since the second Zeno was brought in, Zeno was heavily dumbed down. Like you said, he seemed like an actual ruler, with some childlike qualities,like wanting Goku as a playmate.

Now he's been reduced to only saying one word sentences, like "interesting" or "amazing". He used to be adorable, but now he's flat out annoying. I'm getting sick of hearing "The ToP is interesting!" followed by the second Zeno saying "Yeah the ToP is interesting!". I liked it better when he had a little bit more intelligence.

No wonder why I've become indifferent towards them. Add in the fact that present Zen-Oh wanted a friend because Goku was probably the first person to treat him in a friendly manner and not as a boss. It added to his early personality. Somehow Future Zen-Oh not only destroyed the future timeline, but also his own personality and his present counterpart's.

Cabba asks, Vegeta rejects him, and then Cabba gets a glimpse of Caulifla being taught by Goku before being knocked out.

Vegeta needs to give his opinion on SS berserker, it turning out to be real SS transformation would be neat..
Any reaction similar to this is okay too..
