Really makes me miss SSJG Goku... time to rewatch BoG and enjoy some SSJG Goku goodness.
I miss it too bud but Toriyama said it way back that there isn't a need for Goku to transform into SSG ever again since he absorbed the power. From it's short spurt in BoG movie it was evident Toriyama was keen on the form just being a bridge between realms of God ki or something.

I believe we'll find out within a week or so with episode titles and spoilers coming out after the first week of the month.
Sounds good. This is the first month in a while where I'm curious about episode titles. Mostly because I want to know who gets ko'd next from Team 7, but partly because I want to know how the Brianne battle shakes out. The parody-Precure team has some of my interest.
Brianne will likely take out someone from U7.

We all have our favorites and bias towards certain characters, and I personally don't have a problem on who it would be (even if it's Piccolo since he's my favorite).

What I'm concerned with is the execution. How will they get knocked off? Will they go down swinging or go down like wimps? That matters to me more than a character lasting a long while in the tournament but not doing much of anything.

I do see you constantly turning to childish insults every time someone makes a comment about 17, not being able to form an actual argument, you've repeatedly just brushed everything off as salt after stomping your feet. You obviously do give a damn about what people think of him.
I never insulted anyone here so i don't know what you're talking about, i said that Goku, Vegeta and Gohan as last 3 would be non original and predictible that person bashed 17 knowing his my favorite to trigger me eventhough i specified that i'd rather have any non saiyan to replace either Gohan or Vegeta so keep imagining stuff and i'm able to form an actual argument, just try me. :)

I would LOVE to see his family too and him becoming a permanant memeber of the cast too, i remember my friend recently told me that Toshio told him "i'm going to write a cool No.17 from now on" so i assume he will still be relevant later on.

I have a feeling the last three will be Gohan, Goku and Frieza. However I do think 17 makes the final 4 or 5 fighters. Id like him over Gohan I just cant see that big of a twist. Gohan fans would turn Oozaru.

Gohan hasn't gotten any spotlight at all so they're keeping him to have his moment, but i doubt his "fans" will stop them from doing what the hell they want, they have a story to tell they won't take in consideration the fans's anger.

17 will be perfectly fine man. Don't worry. They wouldn't have brought him back after a long absence if he wasn't going to be a key player in this tournament. No need to be concerned too much about what others think of him.

Yeah I'm not saying they should base their decision on that, but with the amount of fan service Super has I do think they consider it at least a tiny bit.

You know, you are trash talking about being salty and so one, but no one really gives a damn. No one is whining that if his favourite character would be ringed-out, he would drop the show and so one. It was always Goku show. And now it is Goku & Vegeta show and maybe Gohan in the future. Just deal with it. And for me - he is boring. That's my opinion. But it doesn't mean that I am salty. I can't be salty about character I don't give a damn lol.
Do you see me call characters boring here ? no one is trash talking but you and the way you express yourself is childish, i don't give "a damn" if you find him boring or not truth is he's back, he's one of the strongest and one of the most hyped up characters, as i said either you like it or not you will see a lot of him. have a good day.
I don't mind seeing a lot of him. You were just whining that Goku, Vegeta and Gohan in the finals is boring, so who behaves in a childish manner?
It would be boring and ridiculous.

Umm maybe my eyes are bad but those numbers are wrong. From the way I see it:

Piccolo is holding the 2 star DB
Roshi the 3 star DB
Tien/18 the 4 star DB
17 the 5 star DB
Tien/18 the 6 star DB
Freeza the 7 star DB
There will be bigger rage than what happened in episodes 100-101 if Roshi and Tien outlasts Piccolo. We saw Piccolo was in trouble in the PV...
I think there won't be any rage if Piccolo goes out before Tenshinhan or Roshi.

Au contraire, for I shall be providing some.

Okay, but seriously, that would be beyond sad. For me at least. I'm trying very hard to not get drawn back in by this franchise because it's been mostly just breaking my heart as far as my favorite character's are concerned.

The U7 vs.U6 tournament arc got my hopes up where Piccolo was concerned, only to have them dashed pretty thoroughly pretty fast. And I can't help but feel I'm going to be reliving that soon . I mean, if he gets eliminated so fast ....ow, my fan heart.

For the moment, the most appealing aspect of these episodes are the inclusion of Freeza.

The only reason I hope the outro line up is true is because Piccolo is in the top 5.

I'm hoping neither the intro or outro lines up as I find it lame to have an elimination spoiled that way.

Piccolo was reduced to be another Tenshinhan. He is fucked.

I don't think there's something below Piccolo level. He's the guy who quit a tournament without doing anything just to give Vegeta more screentime (but thankfully Xenoverse 2 fixed that).

Tenshinhan is in the Piccolo level. Below Piccolo level would be Yamcha level.

Tien can hold his own against Piccolo. Disappointed episode 90 didnt let them fight. I do hope we see a team up with them. I'm hoping one of the Androids get eliminated next.

:shock: You guys are... Tien is on Piccolos level? The same Tien who got KOed by Gohan with a single punch and wrecked by Roshi?

Please tell me you guys weren't serious. Every dragon ball fan knows there's an immense power gap between Tien and piccolo.

Uh, no. Piccolo can fight a SSJ2 Gohan with ease. Tien can't even dream of touching base Gohan.

Tien's an awesome character, but let's not be ridiculous here.
