I expect the fanbase to be upset after that
I though the worst writer was Yamaguchi aka King of Fake Tension.

And episode 114, if either of the girls get a powerup it might be Caulifla, and wont be SSJ3 because Toei hates it(thats why Goku never used it in the TV Special), if its SSJ Ikari I will laugh.

Also they tried to use a new Genki Dama sound effect too.
I prefer Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, DB/Z/GT Movies, Dragon Ball Super and Dragon Ball GT in Japanese.
For DBZ Kai and two new Movies I like both Dub and Sub. I Prefer Shunsuke Kikuchi Soundtracks over All other Composers.

That’s your opinion of Yamaguchi, not a fact. Especially since he wrote Epsoide 109 that people loved with 110.

But you tend to push your opinion as fact.

Toei also doesn’t hate Super Saiyan 3 since they drew it in their own exclusive episodes. They’re also not going to changed something in Toriyama’s outline and he would be the one to decide if Cali gets Super Saiyan 3.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

People loved 110 more than 109(Akira Kushida theme helped a lot, gave me Toriko vibes).


Manga: Healer Trunks.

Anime: Ikari Trunks.

Manga: Quitela is the one that beat Beerus in the arm wrestling match

Anime: Somehow people think/assume its Belmod the one that beat Beerus.

SS Ikari sounds like the thing only Trunks should have. His whole life is despair so this is kinda understandable. Caulifla has no reason to be that mad.

Easy way to fix it, have someone kill Kale.

What if in episode 114, Freeza shows up, and attacks Kale to the point she dies?.

Freeza already setting his eyes on the U6 saiyans after witnessing Cabba/Vegeta moment in episode 112.

I have read several fans called 109 better since 110 spent too much time on the Spirit Bomb.

That only means Toriyama wasn’t specific in certain areas. Both the manga and anime had Trunks get Super Saiyan 2. And we don’t know what the manga is doing for the TOP since it’s only two chapters in.

Pretty much given the shit trunks had to deal with the form fits him better than anyone else and honestly it should be his exclusive form Equivalent to mystic gohan

Nice to see people upgrading to wanting characters "dead" now.
Feels over Reals.

Right 109 was well written Yamaguchi did very well. Plenty of people loved Goku going through his forms and Goku went full full power against Jiren no "fake tension" he even threw KKx20 in there from the getgo.

Also SS3 was a dud of transformation always has been, in it's own introductory arc it did nothing but cause trouble for Goku and in the end Goku didn't even use it to beat Buu. Going SS3 would have been pointless now we know he still has access to SSG. I guess since Toriyama never intended to bring Goku back after he went back to otherworld he decided to go crazy on SS3.

I mean...the real reason Goku didn't go SSJ3 is because Toei didn't want to animate it. Nothing more, nothing less.

Its the same as in GT, were Goku goes Super Saiyan then skips to SS4, in a real battle and outside of movie 13 the form has often proved to be more of a liability then a help because is simple eats up to much energy. It's far better to just skip to far more powerful and energy efficant forms like 4 or God then waste time with it. Hell the only time he's ever bothered using it these days was in a sparing match to quickly K.O. Trunks.

Similar, but the boots and sash kinda make the whole attire look way cooler. In Saonel's case anyway. Pirina's apparently in a speedo :/

I also really like the darker, slightly blueish green as opposed to Piccolo's brighter shade.

Pirina looks like Nappa with his armour destroyed if he was a Namekian.

The colour was obviously done so Saonel does not look exactly like Piccolo.

That would be a bit boring and it will probably be someone involved in the tournament as why would they have a toy.
