And this tidbit from Toshio about either the new form or the new technique.
Based on that episode 112 summary I think Frieza might go after Cabba.

He might, or it could be a whole load of nothing like that "Helles praises Goku" thing from last time.

Based on the two previews for 111, I definitely see Goku coming to Hit's rescue right as he's about to be defeated.

I love how the pun of the technique/form has a double meaning on what the technique literally is and what Goku literally is :lol:
I think this form/technique will just be for Goku, I mean it even has his name in it.
Only a few hours away before the 1hr special, my popcorn and drinks are ready!

We all know Hit is probably finished with the the Universe 6 Saiyans joining him very soon after.

17 and 18 look WAY too happy about contributing their energy.

No, we don't actually know that. In fact people have been pretty terrible at predicting eliminations so far. Hit was surely done after fighting Dypso too, and Vegeta, and Roshi, and Kale, and so on. Krillin was a freebie since the previews told us that one.

So episode 112 summary

Freeza is not amused that Vegeta saves Cabba. Wonder if Freeza will go after Cabba? I still think there must be more to this episode since it's called Vegeta's resolve not Cabba's.

Note: I actually in a way agree with Freeza stop helping people from other teams lol

But at the same time I do like the relationship that developed between Vegeta & Cabba. In fact it's another thing that shows how much Vegeta has changed. Helping Cabba benefits Vegeta in absolutely 0 ways and yet he still does it.

Goku SSB just releasing his Ki also broke the Time-Skip. No wonder Jiren can do the same. I just do not understand if Hit will evolve his technique in the fight against Jiren or if it will already be improved when the killer uses

If they somehow release ANOTHER spoiler before the damn special airs, I'll quit Super.

It doesn't grant a power boost, it does, however, make him a near impossible to defeat opponent.
We know nothing about the form, what it is and what powers it grants. But I have the same fear if it is based off the move without thinking principles. The only way this could would would be a combination of using momentum based attacks based on he opponents own momentum and precision based attacks allowing Goku to target weak points rather than raw brute strength.

But I don’t think it’s well written enough for something like that and it shouldn’t grant a new form for that.

I had to look up what that meant, and I guess it does. Definitely isn't the first time I've seen it in action on this forum.

17 and 18 have infinite energy to give... that's interesting that they're in the preview shot like that.
Clever.

I think it would've been more fitting if you said
"If they somehow release ANOTHER spoiler before the damn special airs then it may just be the last straw that breaks the came'ls back"

I am just happy they are making an appearance. Hope it's more than that second which was spoiled in the image. :)

You don't need to be strong, or powerful, or have a large ki rating.. When you have this ability, it's an automatic win for you over anyone who doesn't possess it. (At least in 99% of all cases).
Mh, not so true. In pure martial arts is a great advantage (like we have see with Beerus in the manga), but you can't beat everyone only with this ability or only by dodge them, especially if the avversary is more stronger, faster, skilled or if he has powerful hax abilities. It all comes back to stats.

The only reason it looks so impressive is because Whis, of all people, is a master of it. This technique does not make someone "unbeatable" and of course Goku will not be unbeatable.

You have got to love just how much of a dick Frieza is.

Picks on fighters weaker then himself, lets Gohan get beaten up, beats Jimeze to within an inche of his life befor ringing him out, completly trolls his U6 counterpart and if that was not spiteful enough he's going to take out Vegeta's little fanboy likely right in the middle of some master/studant speech.

Well it will pay Vegeta back for his insults during RoF.
