As far as Google Translate is concerned, there's nothing in here we don't already know. I don't speak the language, though.

After witnessing Jiren's true power, Goku wants to challenge him. But when Goku flies towards Jiren, he gets blown away by Toppo's Justice Flash. After being blown away Goku faces off against U6 Saiyan Caulifla again, but then U11 warriors led by Kahseral surround Goku and co. The 5 warriors entrusted by Toppo to attack Goku have various special techniques, and Goku co. are in trouble. Kahseral something, androids 17 and 18 rush in to save Goku.

---

Goku gets blown away where Kale and Caulifla are, Goku and Caulifla are about to fight another fight but its interrupted by the Pride Troopers, which force them to team up.

They struggle(see Caulifla about to sacrifice herself in the PV) only to be rescued by 17 and 18.

Every saiyan has "infinite potential". Caulifla is just overhyped. She will never be strong as Goku, Vegeta or even Kale in my opinion.

Watch her get Ikari, and finally get an explanation for it. Just mention that its an incomplete version of Blue and can only be unlocked if you have enormous potential.

.. I see it now..
Infinite potential? What are they trying to get to here now..
It's always whoever needs a powerup for plot, they somehow possessed extreme potentials all along..
Freeza, Zamasu, 17, Trunks had go pull it with anger because he was never explicitly stated to have extreme potential, uub has it, didn't Vegeta say Cabba has potential as well.. and now Cauliflowa has infinite amount of it..

Yeah, they need to find a better answer for these powerups.. It will soon become a joke like holding back.. nobody is gonna take it seriously anymore

"Potential" became a joke when Gohan got his unleashed twice (Guru and then Old Kai) if you ask me. Holding back is a relatively recent addition.

Yeah, and trunks potential just somehow wasn't utilized or existing until that particular plot point.. It was magically bestowed upon him by power of friendship itself..
Let's see anyone try to defend such an explanation of ikari..
Huge potential my ass..

"Potential" became a joke when Gohan got his unleashed twice (Guru and then Old Kai) if you ask me. Holding back is a relatively recent addition.
When the there is only one guy with such big potential, he gets used as a plot device almost all the time..
He had to be purposely written out of the story to not cause goku to be knocked out of top place..
Now all these people who, seem to be having extreme potentials pop out left and right, will all be needed to be written out like Gohan was, can they manage that?
Or are they just going to pretend cauliflowa who is supposedly having infinite potential and is a Saiyan who loves to get stronger, just stopped training and didn't become more powerful? Or is cauliflowa getting to grand priest level next arc?
Because that's how infinite potential works, you work little and get results high as hell.. But..

If this is what they meant, it's fine..
Then there would be the point of why explain such obvious things in the first place, or why put it in for only one Saiyans hype..

After this, I am almost positive she is supposed to get a big, huge, powerup soon and it's not going to make sense unless they say this

Didn't someone say that Goku has infinite potential in-show? I feel like one of the gods said that almost word-for-word but I can't remember who said it.

And all potential really means in-show is the ability to get stronger faster without as much work.

Vegeta once said in the back arc Saiyans have no limits..
That's the only thing I remember close to this..

This,potential really does not mean anything outside of its usage for plot device reasons.
After all Future Gohan trained for years and he was weak,present Gohan trained for 3 years with both Piccolo and ssj Goku and he had the least gains out of the 3.
Even if those with 'potential' train as much as goku and vegeta,goku and vegeta will still stay on top because of their MC status,after all Rage Vegeta(bog) outdid both ssj3 Goku and Ultimate Gohan,despite those 2 having more/bigger potential than him.

Honestly potential doesn't mean crap it all depends on plot

Goten and Trunks started out massively stronger than Goku and Vegeta and Gohan. Their head start meant relatively nothing. Same thing with Gohan. Started out over 3 times stronger than Goku before doing any training. Literally fell behind him by the beginning of Super (at the very least).

How strong you start and how much power you gain literally have no consistency in dragonball, and acting like this will be a problem is hilarious.

Re: screenshots

Gokû jogging made me laugh. Very curious about Brianne. Wondering if Uni 10 will go down next (so long, Gowasu).
On hiatus.
