DAMNIT! Universe 2 and 6 were honorful as hell!

And Goku basically broke out of what heavily reminded me of a Revenge Death Ball even though it is not the same thing.

The best moment was Kami reappearing I'd say as well as the universes taking the loss like champs.

So, they actually preferred to make official that crap fan idea of a Namekuseijin merging with others from his race instead of explaining why the hell there was a Tsufurujin and Yadorat in Universe 2 and instead of giving Piccolo a transformation (or his red-eyed form from Dragon Ball Online that was already official and a much better concept).

Can Dragon Ball Super get worse than this? :| I truly appreciate that it gave more screentime to Super Saiyan 2, but this is the very meaning of bullshit.

Can't wait for everyone to say "Vegeta's the one dropping out!!!" as they did with Piccolo and 18 earlier. :lol: :lol:

awww... I saw Beerus was sad... I would have liked to see another angle though, it was good...
too bad Shampa didn't say anything as Beerus stated, he just stayed true to his character until the end :(
Vados was so mean as always...

Too bad Universe 2 got more screentime for their farewell, although it was good.
:cry:
Sleeping until the tournament is over.

Kami and Nail making a brief appearance was awesome and unexpected.

I don't really see this as something that drags the show down.

Also, with the preview, it looks like next week is the return of the invisible man. Quickly, 18, take off your shirt!

I don't think the bugs will appear tbf. Those dark creatures seemed controlled by Shantsa.

Haven't watched the episode yet but I find it terribly disappointing that the best Universe 6's Namekian species merged together has to offer is two individuals whom the show couldn't provide much intrigue from the other characters or general development. What are we supposed to take away from that information? That the pinnacle Namekian strength just can't cut it compared with even the lesser members of their own team like Magetta and Frost?

Whoever cut that preview is such an asshole :lol: They gave no hints on who's going out. Even changed the title. They really don't want people guessing who's out so easily... At least until the magazine blurbs come out.

Goodbye U2, you fought well honourable cousins from our twin universe. And farewell U6, your universe despite is low rank had breed some mighty warriors and most of them had hearts filled with justice.

Also the unknown warrior is actually two, Damon and Gamisaras. There just so small and fast its hard to see them.

They're definitely stronger than them. They needed time to adjust to their power. Remember, they dealt well against a Kamehameha from Gohan who's at least equal to Gokus ss3 level.

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.

Saonel and Pirina were both holding their own against Ultimate Gohan. I'd say they did well for themselves.

What did he even do in the NEP? All I saw him do was charge up some attack.

That was quite underwhelming. I expected the U6 namekians to be powerful on their own without the need of fusing, but I guess now that Saonel and Pilina would be nothing had they not. Way of hammering that namekians can't power up as much via training despite even meditation gave Piccolo some power boosts before.
