That's such an odd assumption for Vegeta to make in the middle of a battle for no apparent reason. Like what would make him draw that conclusion.

Anyway so basically, if what Vegeta is saying is true it official retcons all the SSJ forms as "false" SSJ. That's pretty amazing.
As long as they'll never go on a bargain sale again, I agree, it's awesome for me too
For some reason, this transformation reminded me ikari Trunks a lot

As a theory.

The Super Saiyan factor found in saiyans comes from an original source, the Original Super Saiyan. As it was passed on the gene altered and changed, the form's power becoming more diluted but controllable.

Kale, due to a genetic quirk, was born with the gene in its original form.

Note: Funnily enough Original, Legendary and Berserker are all fitting names for the form now.

The blue face does not look like any of them. The General Rildo looking guy has a different set of eyes and nose unless he can transform.

You can see the two guys in the shadows right?

Surprised nobody noticed this yet, but when Kale went Berserk, we can see a fighter with wings.

You know some kind of explanation from the show would be nice. It's like they expect us to know what it is but then won't actually say what it is. It's annoying, don't take something and then not tell us what it is.

People really jumped the gun on that one.

The other one I saw a bunch of people complaining about was Cabba supposedly beating up Vegeta in this episode, that also didn't happen.

I was kinda hoping there'd be some better explanation for what Blue was though but never mind.
The tournament isn't over yet and right now it's implied she's going to reach some new level of SSJ during the tournament which is already BS since just a few seconds ago she just learned how to consistently go SSJ2 so in less than 40 minutes she's going to elevate to the next SSJ level. Yeah not matter what she gets, if she gains a new SSJ level in the next 40 mins the outrage is justified.
If She gets 3 or ikari, it really won't be since those are just powerups or are we still leaving in this delusion where super saiyans 1-3 still mean something after Goku got number 1.

Toshio said on twitter that he's a big fan of Caulifla and Kale and can't wait for an upcoming episode that he wrote featuring them. Yamaguchi wrote 101 and Tomioka 102, so it sounds to me like the girls are staying in it til at least 103.
Bullza wrote:Completely random question and I didn't want to make a thread just to ask it.

Does every Universe have a Demon Realm or is there just the one Demon Realm that makes up the opposite of the 12 living universes?
I think there was a diagram of Universe 7 a long time back that showed the Demon Realm as being at the bottom of the globe or down inside the spire at the tip. That would imply that each Universe has its own, but who knows if that still applies anymore.

Toshio's next episode is 104.

I don't think so, the one in the shot above looks more insect like.

I wouldnt really mind Kale's berserk mode being the true SSJ form, could make more sense as to why Freeza feared the tale of a SSJ coming true if it was supposed to be that powerful. Makes it look like Goku and the others unlocked a new generation of SSJ instead of the primary original SSJ.

Yeah, I changed my mind pretty quickly. I seem to have recalled another scene, where that vampire chick can be seen and mixed those two scenes together in my mind. So there seems to be at least 2 characters with wings left.

Whenever Ribianne transforms and starts fighting Vegeta, that will probably be the last fight for him. That hasn't happened yet, so he'll probably last a few more episodes.

The one who looks like an insect might be one of the hidden fighters of U6 or U4. None of the already seen fighters look like that.
