Based on what we know now, I think what will happen is that Goku will start off getting his ass kicked but being pressured will make him start to 'remember' how to use Ultra Instinct and that's when he'll start gaining the upper hand. If you put all the info from the previews for 113 and 114 together, something doesn't quite add up (partly because the only 114 summary is basically the same as the WSJ for 113). Hopefully tomorrow night's NEP adds some clarity to the sequence of events.

And I do have to give them credit for characters like Ribirianne and even Kale who completely go against normal female body types that you see in anime. I think that is great (I don't particularly like the Broly thing so I am not the hugest fan of Kale's form but I will give credit Super for going against expectations here when it comes to female characters).
I agree as well, I was happy and suprised the Toei decided to go that route with Ribrianne's look and to state that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Also Kale I enjoy as the shy and simple girl that just wants to do good for her sis but is afraid at the same-time of things she does not know, many can relate to a character like that since many of us, whether we want to admit it or not, we where all the shy and scared type at many points in our young lives :thumbup: ~~~~ I certainly was, so I can relate with Kale on this level allot.

I don't know what you expected, the first thing she offered Cabba when he came to her "gang" was Juice, freaking Juice..
I maintain that was meant as a snide insult to him.

I think those are back dimples.

Well I hope someone gets eliminated. To have the same pairing fight for a second time in a tournament setting needs to result in an elimination. Otherwise, it gives the impression of being contrived and/or a time waster for what's the come. We're at the half way point, every fight should mean something now.

Unless Caulifla goes Super Saiyan 3, I don't see that happening. She still has to use Zenkai boost nonsense to power-up, so she's protected by the plot for now. I think the same goes for Kale.

He's Cabba the Unworthy. It's not like he'll do anything about it but sip his juice.

It doesn't seem like she is getting any stronger and she is going to fight a tired Goku with Kale so she must be close to going. Another rematch is just stupid.

Exactly, having a bunch of rematches doesn't add anything and removes any tension.

Becareful for what you wish for, otherwise the next people dropping could be characters you like.

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.

One-shot off the ring or they go down like Tien.

That dosen't qualify as entertaining really..
It's simply a bad way to get them off ring..
A struggle or a complete dominace before knock out would be much better

Depends on who they’re fighting.

I am not thinking the same as you as there are only a few characters left I actually care about and I actually want to be excited for this tournament as long as possible.

I agree, but I honestly don't see her going until she gets Super Saiyan 3, the fact that they consistently show her being battle damaged from early on tells me Zenkai Boost nonsense is about to ensue. I hope she gets it in this or the next episode so they can get her out of this show. what i'm actually expecting for now is for them to have a boring and pointless rematch that won't go anywhere, wouldn't be the first time the show wasted our time...
