It's the same technique they used to revive Goku in the episodes he fought Hit again. between the Zamasu arc and the TOP arc.

I'm not talking about the shock technique:

Maybe after all this time Goku is finally taping into other aspects of his God ki, rather then just using it to make him stronger in fights.

To be fair, Roshi's winning his fights in a way where he's not using strength besides Ganos. We have no idea how strong that guy was.

Yeah, I'm convinced he did a little more than just "shock" his heart. Last time I checked the whole body doesn't get enveloped in glowing ki...

Fair enough. Just goes to show power isn't everything.

Yeah I think Goku did something different, whatever that is depends if Toei's willing to explain or as usual shrug it off.

And its a Tenshinhan episode, its like Toei likes to troll him. He will get the focus next week and the episode seems that it will have the worst art since episode 67.

Next round of summaries will probably only have two episodes;

10th September - No episode
17th September - 107
24th September - 108
1st October - One Piece Special - no episode
8th October - DB Super Special - no episode unless this is old school hour-long anime special and we get two episodes. Unlikely, though, considering the key graphic.
Around October 10th - new summaries

So no ep on the 1st and 8th? I swear to God if they tease us with the new form on the 24th and takes a 2 weeks out I am flipping dogs!

With 40 Fighters and 34 Minutes left there is no way the Tournament of Power is over in November with 3 weeks no Episodes.

Chances are the manga's Tournament of Power will start in November or December as well, so it'll be interesting to see how this all plays out

In fact, something similar happened in the fight between Beerus and Goku in the anime. Goku SSG healed himself and apparently without Goku noticing.
Beerus says it was willpower that '' brought him back ''

Here he too was desperate to save Master Roshi. Perhaps, it is a property of the divine Ki and he still has no control over it, or just script

In the week that will not have episode (10 of September), will be released the synopsis of the WSJ? And will also be released the synopses of the Newtype Magazine?

ToP might end in 9 episodes if they will have 39 fighters being gone.

First 9 episodes of the ToP has 40 fighters eliminated already.

If that were the case I would think that time would be moving faster, but only 14 minutes have passed by.
We're probably just going to start having multiple episode fights soon.

I know we're all assuming it's going to happen, but 48 minutes don't have to pass to finish the tournament.

Looking at the preview, doesn't really seem to be a Tien focused episode. I mean, he was in one shot and that's it. Though him and Vegeta being forced to work together might be interesting. Always wanted to see less typical combinations, especially with Vegeta. The preview still showed him with Goku though, like exclusively :? Really getting tired of these two, their banter hasn't really been entertaining for a while now, and them joining forces has pretty much lost all its novelty.

I love how half of the participants are out and yet the other universes besides 6 and 7 have like 2-3 eliminations in total. I guess the rest of them are just twiddling their thumbs until it's their turn to be fodder.
He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.

Jump talked about it as a Gohan and Piccolo episode.
