He was referring to Kale. Pretty obvious considering the camera cuts to her after he says that and, well, she's clearly a disturbed individual as shown throughout the rest of the episode.

Toshio's next episode is 104.
Oh boy! More Cauli fanwank. Just what we needed.

I was so very hopeful that the NEP for #101 meant Cauli was out. Ah, well. Need her to stay in and get that Super Saiyan 3 so her mockery of Goku's lifetime of work can be complete.

They really need to speed up the eliminations of the fodder characters. Some universes still don't even have a single character knocked out yet.

By the way, can anyone link me to that image where it has all the universes team members (with their pics) and gods who represent them? I know it's in past pages of this thread but I've gone back quite a few pages and can't find it yet haha.
I would prefer to see Hitto ko Toppo and then fight Jiren, but, probably, he will fight and lose with Vegeta. I'm afraid his future role in the anime can be at risk.

He saw base kale earlier, and kale was nowhere near transforming or letting out any energy when the camera cut to her, infact her base was getting pounded when hit passed the comment of something disturbing

The problem with this is that a very small percentage of Goku's current power actually came from that lifetime of hard work. He got dozens if not hundreds of times stronger from a friendship circle and being a one-in-a-million prodigy who could retain the power of a temporary form, and then his 6 month training session with Whis. Goku benefits from plot convenient power-ups just as much as anyone else.

I was kind of hoping Broly girl would do that in an instant. These episodes are dragging. It's literally watching Uni 7 punch, punch, punch, and throw beams for 15 minutes, with little to no good choreography or rhythm; wank off over how cool Jiren; show snippets of the only other two relevant universes eliminating someone irrelevant for 5 minutes; and Zeno reacting to everything for the rest of the episode.

This arc is boring so far. The recruitment episodes were way more interesting than this.

He was still referring to her. Not so much her power, but the vibe coming off while she was getting beaten.

Very true, but I suppose I meant Super Saiyan 1-3 specifically, since that was all hard work on Goku's part and it's apparently the library of what Cauli's going to accomplish inside a day by getting a "tingly back".

It's freaking ridiculous.

If would be fitting if Caulifa became SSJB by feeling tinglyness in her bum. Cause that would be the ultimate ass pull.

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?
Yeah, but they didn't seem to fit the image. The guy with long hair has green skin going by the end credits and the other guys' mouth & eyes look way different.

    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.
    Is she that strong?

    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.
    I have the feeling Cabba will show up to save the saiyan girls, he might probably sacrifice himself, gaining the respect of the saiyan girls.

    That's one of the biggest things Z fucked up. Goku trained to aquire every bit of strength he had in ball and the only time he didn't, it almost killed him.

    Then zenkais come out of nowhere, retconning all of that and then he gets a transformation because his best friend died, when the last time that happened, he was almost killed.

    Since they already played the Broly card in the Tournament and Kale is still in, I'm expecting next time she transforms she will get her new form.

    NEPs can be deceiving but judging by it Caulifla might be eliminated soon. Hopefully Kale gets her shit together.

    Those two are giving me Goku's/Gohan's vibes during the Cell Games.
    Caulifla is confident of Kale's potential and she's pushing her to unleash it. Kale is not sure of herself and she's suffering because of that.
    A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.
