Very curious, but not being my hopes up for Rosé or Zamasu. It's probably just a coincidence.

Now you gave me a mental picture of Captain Planet coming in to save the day.
He wouldn't make it ten feet before Frieza's very presence chokes him to death. Remember the Hitler episode of Captain Planet?

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.

It is crazy that Hit goes before the Universe 6 Saiyans.

Hit going out now builds tension. "Oh no, what will they do without Hit?" Goku being down is probably supposed to do the same thing, but...you know Goku and U7 are fine no matter what so it doesn't make much of a difference.

They will introduce 2 very powerful Namekians.

Of course,as for U7 even without EOZ we know they would win or at the worst case scenario they are erased then brought back with the super dragonballs.
The tension would be there if Goku was out because we would be wondering what they could do without him.
But you know Goku must be in every fight so...

Hitto going out this early is probably meant to be a surprise factor. U6 losing heir best fighter. Jiren I'm taking Hitto out isn't so bad. I love Hitto, but I don't mind him going now, but to be the first heavy hitter gone is surprising.

He's not in every fight, but even if he got erased or eliminated or whatever it would be an empty tension because you know somehow things will turn back in in the heroes' favor or they will lose in a way that works to their benefit anyway. The only U7 character in this arc who's at any kind of risk would be Frieza and even he's probably protected by plot armor. When you've had the Earth destroyed twice by Buu and Frieza and brought back the world being at risk at all kind of loses its impact.

Optimistic x100 now as Hit going out is the first part of what I imagined will happen if they really are going to be very powerful.

There's not much going for them at this point, other than the fact that they weren't really mentioned. But that could mean anything. Monaka was the last to fight, and that was a bit mysterious right from the get-go, and look how it all turned out. Heck, at least Monaka had a build up. These two Namekians so far were nothing more than blurry background characters.

Their best chance is if they take out Piccolo with one effortless move and proceed on to fight real SSB-tier fighters like Goku, Vegeta, Android 17, and Frieza.

Frieza teaming up with Android 17 vs two new Namekians, as Piccolo watches in awe. Now that would be a good turn out of events. I still don't even know why people want them to fight a weakling like Piccolo. I mean when fans say that, I'm guessing they at least realize that the new Namekians would be complete fodder weaklings right?

The tension would be on how they reach the end result,not the end result itself since we know our MC will survive.

The Manga is jumping arc to arc and it just doesn't feel whole or complete which is why I stopped reading it. So I wouldn't mind if we had similar length of SoL after this arc.

This is primarily why I like DBS so much.
Well the manga is a monthly thing so it cannot waste on time Sol stuff,is been a problem since u6 don't know why you drop it rigth now
    Through I'm also the peeps who enjoyed those episode,i'm still waiting for an episode where piccolo opens a clothes shop

      That is not the primary reason I stopped reading, I just don't like Toyotaro's writing on the whole.

        Goku is fighting Caulifla and Kale in 113 and 114, but it sounds like they might be fighting this new super warrior being teased if it isn't a Saiyan itself after that.
