"Dragon Ball Super" Series Official Announcement & Discussion Thread

[Birusu16]

Considering that Kefla surpassed TV Special UI Goku, then it makes sense Vegeta surpasses that version of UI Goku as well.

When did Kefla surpass UI Goku?

In the UI Goku vs Kefla episode. IIRC, It's said that she may be even stronger than Goku's previous strength (initial UI Goku).

About 119.

Piccolo's performance was decent and this time TOEI didn't fuck with him. Our favourite Namekian saved not only "his" Gohan but #18 too, one shotted the blue guy and was having fun fighting with the invisible guy.
He lost but Gohan and #17 ( won't mention #18 again ) would surely lose too if not for Piccolo/Goku. Even Whis aknowledged that his classic technique ( the one he did when protected #18 ) was pretty powerful & Saonel mentioned how powerful the makankosappo was.

I don't know why so many people expect the announcement at jump fest to be the next arc. That arc at the earliest would start in april and we've only gotten info or teasers on the next arc after the previous one has ended.

[BlueVegerot]

When they mentioned that UI Goku in episode 116 was stronger than TV Special UI Goku?

iirc It was Piccolo who mentioned it.

I wouldn't take that line as confirmation. I highly doubt piccolo can sense god ki

Because that's where this one was announced and I think Trunks' as well.

Couldn't Piccolo sense Supreme Kai in the Buu Saga?

f trunks arc was announced in the summer AFTER u6 tournament ended

ToP arc was announced at Jump Fest weeks AFTER f trunks arc ended

He did, but then he couldn't recognize who Beerus and Whis were :/ This is one of my biggest pet peeves when it comes to Super.

If you don't have god ki yourself or aren't ridiculously strong ala Golden Freeza or Hit, you can't read god ki in terms of power, you can feel the pressure but not actually know how much power the person has . F Trunks showed this when he fought Vegeta.

[Olympian]

You know the producers have questionable taste when Roshi has had the best sendoff out of the eliminated fighters from U7.

Piccolo elimination couldve handled much better, like he uses his stretching arms and attempts to grab the ground but then Gamisaras denies it.

Its also disappointing that Piccolo never got to use his Kage Bunshin no Jutsu.

Dude, it`s a pretty big love boner Toryama got all of a sudden for Roshi but no surprise there. There`s a generation who never saw him fight and be cool so he`s the one who got it best.

I still can`t believe there was an actual invisible guy. Gotta love those OG shout outs.

It was a cool reference indeed. Super already mentioned several classic Dragon Ball moments and many techniques.

About Piccolo's elimination. Can't see how his streching arms could have helped him in that situation. He received multiple attacks from behind, attacks strong enough to send him or #17 flying, plus he was on the edge of the ring, didn't have the chance to regain his balance, so streching couldn't help him there.

[perucho1990]

Should attempted to use his stretching arms and then Gamisaras kicks both of Piccolos arms away and gets eliminated, that sounds much better without making Piccolo look retarded.

How could he ? He can't use levitation to regain his balance due to the tournament rules and when he fell he was facing the void, not the ring, he couldn't strech his arms hoping to reach the arena because he was facing the opposite direction.

I just found out that naotoshi shida and yuyu takahashi (I probably messed their names up) are going to work on Vegeta's episode which means it's not just going to be a one sided beat down or otherwise they wouldn't put their best men on it.

I wonder if he'll get UI like what some have been predicting.

We'll still have 2 months worth of episodes so hopefully this won't be too far behind :

Don't worry they brought their best men so they could animate the parts of Goku beating up some scrubs that will take up about half of Vegeta's episode.

What scrubs ? won't the 5 robots be out within the next 2 episodes ?

Well, that wouldn't be too surprising since the last time Vegeta's name was in the title, Cabba took up 70% of the scene time.

Since when does the Supreme Kai have God Ki?

I don't think Vegeta is getting a transformation, I think it's far more likely that he maybe figures out a weakness Jiren holds that when exploited allows Vegeta to hold his own.

I never thought about it, I guess it makes sense for someone that strong to have some kind of hidden weakness as even UI Goku couldn't do much against him.

I'm still going to bet Vegeta gets UI so hopefully I'm right.
