I'd like to say having these back at 7:00 is so much better than 8:00. Feels so good to be back at this time slot.

I was about to say the same too, I got into Super when the 8:00 pm was regular, but knowing now the time change effected the viewing time cause Japan does not have Daylight Savings Time. So now having it at 7:00 pm is a blessing on sleep and time-usage wise for Me personally.

So for a New fan getting back into Super this was a nice surprise to learn about in scheduling. :thumbup:

I expected more tbh. SSB and SSBKK made that competitive against her. Now she's shown getting bodied in the NEP.

It's not really all that impressive considering Goku was running on fumes by the time he used SSJB. Stacking Kaioken on top of that was dumb, but he had no choice. Whis flat out states he had no chance of beating SSJ Kafla at that stage.

I know. In fact, it's more impressive that a recovering SSB Goku was matching SSJ Kafla.

That fight was wholly underwhelming. I was really looking forward to it, too. Oh well. :|

I was more looking forward to Ultra Instinct. I mean, I like Kalfa, but she's no Ultra Instinct. :P

Same here. I look forward more to next week as I get to see some good UI Goku action again.

Osamu Ishikawa and Hiroyuki Itai were the animation supervisors for Episode 115. Kitano most likely did some key animation but was heavily corrected.

Normally I woulda been pissed, but they made it such a huge point that Goku's really tired throughout the ep so much that it didnt mind anymore. Anyways what really matters is, more UI Goku next week!

Why do people keep clinging onto this while completely forgetting that Goku's whole reason for fighting Caulifa and Kale/Kefla is to regain his strength - which he has? He's went through SS2, SS3, SSG, SSB, SSBKK, and now UI. He's back at full strength.

Probably because this episode has the show itself state he's still recovering and not at top condition.

I dunno, maybe because Beerus and Chanpa were legit sure he was really tired?

Beerus and Champa obviously don't know what they're talking about, it's not hard to put two and two together. Just like how Whis literally said an episode ago that Goku can't enter UI so easily again, but here we are now. It just makes Whis' statement even MORE bullshit since a "TIRED" man entered UI.

I hate how they used the Ultra Instinct fighting music that was used for Jiren here. It completely devalues it especially when the fight is not even close to that level of excitement. But I do like how they kept the other Ultra Instinct theme, for when Goku went back into Ultra Instinct.

Obviously dont know what they're talking about? When they can surely feel Goku's ki? When we know and witnessed just moments ago that he got whooped so bad that Freeza had to give him a small portion of his energy just enough for him to move? Or maybe because Goku himself not long ago kept saying his stamina isnt at its max?

Whis also stated Caulifla fought like a street thug with no real skill or combat intellect and was forced to take that statement back. Beerus and Champa don't know what they're talking about but you do? Goku isn't at top condition and is still giving this fusion hell.
