Combined U3 robot theory
I thought that was a well known theory.
I'm pretty sure it is. I've even posted it a few places myself. I've added Paparoni into the mix as well, him acting as the robot's controller (handler? He tells it what to do), though, and I haven't seen too many people expecting that.

Can't say that I've ever heard it before if it is. Don't hear much speculation about U3 in general, actually.

He does look like a blue version of Dr. Tenma from Astro Boy. That would be about right. Doesn't his bio say he controls some of the other fighters with his cane?

I dont know what to feel if Gohan suddenly gets a transformation because Piccolo gets damaged, they all most likely thought Goku had died but it didnt trigger anything, and then suddenly Piccolo suffering triggers it? good lord please no, we gonna have another "ha, its because Gohan's real dad is Piccolo" meme's.

Why hasnt Gohan interacted with any saiyans from U6 yet, is it because he's just half saiyan? discrimination!? I dont like that!

I dismissed the theoroes about Piccolo merging with them, but if those two wanna live and are outclassed, maybe they might be down to do it.
They would be considered eliminated if they assimilated into Piccolo like Nail did.

Because unlike Goku and Vegeta, gohan is not looking to fight.


He isn't a fan of any of this.

Well not exactly. He is looking to fight actually. He's looking to improve himself. He's just not looking to fight for the sake of fighting. More to no longer be a complete waste of space....which he surely still needs to work on if Piccolo's opinion counts :lol:.

Though to answer the question above outside my own opinion of own of them essentially being a knock off of Gohan, it's probably because the ties that bind them together are pretty small....though that really didn't stop a bunch of other match ups from happening, or not happening so we could miss out on something good.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Him not being a fan of whats happening doesnt mean he's just hidding there waiting for this to end, he himself knows they need to win this so him taking out other characters is needed, he even took out one that was fighting for the same cause that he was, anyways what I'm getting at is he will need to fight regardless of him wanting or not wanting too, so why not pair him up against the saiyan chicks? its not like Goku was lookin for them either since it was Cauli that went to him, they can easily have Kale stumble on Gohan and they start to fight or Cauli being her usual punky self and attacks Gohan, its not like Gohan's the one that needs to go to them as he probably doesnt see those 3 as a threat (admittedly one of those saiyans walked through a SSJBKHH but lets not get into that)

If Hit and Cabba do get eliminated consecutively, than a lot of my investment in the other universe besides 7 is going to evaporate quick smart.

For some reason, they seem to be eliminating all the competitors in U6 from the tournament first with the exception of DR Rota, who they didn't have anything planned for anyway.

Actually, that is pretty suspicious. Up until now elimination from these two universes went hand in hand. One from U7, one from U6. Makes me think Cabba might not get eliminated in that episode. Hit's fate seems clearer though.

Is #112 the birth of the "new warrior" or the one before?

No, thats the Cabba episode. The birth of a new warrior is episode 114.

Ah. Maybe it's something to do with the aftermath of Hit vs Jiren.

(I hope Hit at least injures/slows Jiren down.)

Dude, the spoilers for the episode have already been released. Do you want me to share you a link?

I'm aware but it really doesn't answer any questions other than Hit gets knocked out. We don't even know if Jiren actually knocks him out, plus we don't know what Hit has done to Jiren, if anything, he could have injured him somehow and Jiren needs to retreat to build himself back up. Many questions still to find out tomorrow.

Jeah, but the answer "does it have something to do with the aftermath of Hit vs Jiren" is yes, even from the spoilers, which directly states that universe 6 is now being targetted because they've lost they're strongest fighter.

A DBH video just popped out and look at this beautiful animation bit of shirtless Goku V Jiren and the last part full close up on MG Goku again.

Well not to jinx it but they already stopped this when Frost got eliminated. And if Hit is next.

I don't know if that means 2 people from U7 are going soon though :(

Oops, forgot about. So three consecutive eliminations for U6? Seems a little much given that they were shown side by side with U7.
