What is this? I see Nozawa-san and the Limit Break x Survivor singer. Is he going to voice the new character in DBS or something?

It's an article of the episode's ratings.

I was hoping Hit would get a rematch with Vegeta so I guess that leaves Toppo or whatever his name is for him to fight.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

It says Universe 6 loses Hit so he should be going out.

Vegeta will regret helping Cabba or Vegeta will lose to main enemy of the arc as usual. One od these 2 will be his main fight.

That's subjective
It's not. Jiren is indeed a bad character, but from what has been shown from him so far. Shin defined perfectly: he is strong, that's all. No personality, no background, nothing yet for we too say he's more than just an obstacle that Goku must overcome in this arc.

He isn't a bad character and that's your opinion not facts but opinion

First Cabba tried to ring out Vegeta, but now Veggie is trying to save Cabba. Doesn't make much sense tbh. Prolly has to do with different writers working on different episodes.

Shot in the dark: maybe Vegeta will be the one eliminate Cabba. He saves him to give his "pupil" another chance, but then challenges Cabba to a fight and the kid loses.

Why doesn't it make sense? Not exactly the first time Vegeta has helped Cabba.

Wow, people are going to be mad about this one!

Hopefully, Toei executes it well?

This is going to be a long ending just like on Namek.

Do you know what a cour is it is 11-13 episodes and lasts till the end of the season. I personally don't know how long Super's cours are.

So if 109-110 were part of this cour (which makes sense because the fall anime season has just started in Japan) then I predict this arc would end around episode 121-123. 125 seems a bit too long. It would also make sense for them to want to start a new arc when the Winter season starts to (well unless the winter is a filler or set-up arc).

There are 31 fighters left (well technically 30 now that we know about Hit) that may seem like a lot but considering how many we started with it's really not that many.

Why not
cabba the only person vegeta likes from u6 and has a connection with
Sure he has to beat him but doesn't mean he wouldn't try to help him

I give Toei credit for not playing it safe. Could have easily just have Hitto last several more episodes.

We knew Hit would lose not eliminated. Thats the keyword here.

A cour is 13 episodes and Dragon ball Super does not work like that only with its new endings every 12 episodes. This anime is continous so new arcs start at any time.

If Hit is the only fighter out next episode then we will be averaging 3.33 eliminations per episode. 50 eliminations divided by 15 episodes. If it continued like that then it would end in episode 120. Fights at the end of the arc are generally longer as well so that is why I say episode 125. We will also have a few episodes after the tournament is finished for the wish and probably Frieza.

This would be Toriyama's idea and not Toei's actions.

Vegeta is a warrior. If Cabba was able to defeat him it would mean Vegeta did his job right. I think he'd actually be proud of him. I'm likewise expecting the Goku/Caulifla/Kale episode to expand on the friendly rivals/pupil relationship between them. People crap on the girls but Goku is shown to be pretty friendly toward them.

Hopefully Hit is able to inflict some serious damage on Jiren in this upcoming episode. The end of the fight is still a mystery as is Jiren seemingly going back out of focus in the next 3 eps.
