It actually makes thing worse because it undermines what Goku and the others did to justify those 2 getting everything for nothing. It makes Goku seem like nothing in comparison as it took him YEARS of hard training to get what he got yet they were born with it. Plus it doesn't fix their beyond annoying personalities.

at this point the arguing over u6 saiyans and their easy transforming is pointless. They all got bodied and are about to be erased. We might as well spend time discussing goku blacks zenkais or hits time skip improvement.

I feel like U6 won't be gone for good. I feel like Hit, Champa, Vados and Cabba are too popular to get rid of. I feel like U7 will probably win and they will make a deal to bring back two Universes if they can keep their mortal level good. I can see U6 and U11 being wish back after the Tournament is over.

So having Scells suddenly makes it okay for them to hog 6 episodes of screentime?
That statement would be correct.
Feels over Reals.

While not really surprising it's gonna be sad to see universe 6 go I've really enjoyed them in this tournament. Odd that universe 2 isn't mentioned in the spoiler but I'm still guessing they'll be getting erased in this episode as well. It does dissapoint me though that Zirloin ended up being a fodder character because I really liked his design and was hoping he'd be strong, but I guess that's not the case. The one thing I'm most excited for though is to see how Beerus reacts to Champa getting erased as well as Vados reaction, should be interesting.

Yet I bet you want Vegeta to surpass Beerus that's been training for millions of years.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Beerus is that old but as far as I know there's nothing that says he's trained for that long. Regardless of wheather he has or not, he can kill Goku and Vegeta without even trying so them surpassing him will just feel forced and Toriyama probably knows it as he's said he has no plans for that happening. It will happen eventually but hopefully not for a very, very, VERY long time.

An interesting thing Toriyama said during BOG in 2013 was that he wanted to keep Beerus' dignity by having Goku lose which makes sense cause the minute someone surpasses him, he'll lose all respect from him and Vegeta.

I could see a regular episode length special for Yamoshi or whoever, maybe a 2 episode length special ova. I could see a short manga special chapter ala Minus/EOB. I highly DOUBT we would ever get a movie on this. A movie not staring Goku and friends....I don't think so. It's rare to have a movie not have Goku in it. I could see a new movie dedicate a little time to Yamoshi, but that's it. Not an over an hour movie all dedicated to it.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

I dont know, I think it's justified to hate them for being screentime hogs and giving us pointless episodes like 115.

I don't see how 115 was pointless since it established Kefla's power, just like 65 was all about how great Merged Zamasu was.

And honestly, this reads like being salty because ones favorite didn't get that spotlight instead. Like the resent that the U6 Saiyans got so much focused on the U6 Namekians.

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.

The Namekians will get a good fight in 2 days, idk why the complain.

Its not like the fight will have Kitano animating it, you get a good director and a good anime supervisor.

It can be a showstealer, I expect it to be as good as Roshi/Vegeta vs Frost/Magetta.

No, he's talking about the passing of Hiromi Tsuru.

What can I say. Saiyans are way more popular than Namekians.

Not 6 episodes popular though.

That screen time should have been used somewhere else.

They have to share an episode with 3 randoms fighting Goku.

If Piccolo takes a hit for Gohan and stays badly injured then the fight is already shit no matter what else happens.

That’s an opinion.

For the most part, a lot of fans consider the ‘Saiyan Showdown’ the highlight of the arc. So take that as you will.
