It is obvious that Goku's UI will have much more promotion, after all this form is one of the highlight of this saga. But that does not stop Vegeta from getting his own transformation to match Goku.

You seem to be in a kind of competition to see which transformation is best based on the promotions and hype created for it ... is that all anger because the vegeta has gotten a new shape? And because some people liked it?
Here's how I see it, the way they described Vegeta's new form in the show was much the same as describing Goku's Ultra Instinct transformation, they described it as his Limit Breaking power and as him breaking his shell, then there is also the fact that the form is in the ED, side by side with UI Goku as the only pieces of original art in the final shot of said ED, while everyone else is just promo art and character designs and then on top of that the eyes are the same as UI.
My guess is that this is what Vegeta will have from now on instead of UI, it will be his "equivalent" and the "UI eyes" as many have called them are in fact going to be a signifier of "Limit Breaking" forms, not specifically UI.
Yes, it's strange all this highlight to Vegeta at the end of ED, being next to UI Goku.
He and Goku are really the only ones with original arts, while others are reusing the TOEI website.

Well, as ED has already given hints about Vegeta's new form on EP 123, then I believe that all focus on Goku and Vegeta on ED can mean something.

I also believe that for now Vegeta will not get UI. This will be his '' Limit Breaking Power '', something unique and exclusive. We do not know exactly what its maximum power in this form, but this will be shown.

Maybe on EP 126, Vegeta gets a power up through this transformation and not something new again.

TheSaiyanGod: Yeah pretty much. All this Vegeta love bugs me. (I like Vegeta and relate to his character but for me everything is Son Goku.)

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.

Well...that's it then, I give up. So much for Super ever following through with something. This was the last straw that breaks the camels back for me. I'll finish watching the TOP of course, but I am severely disappointed.

I feel really sick to my stomach at the moment. This feels like a gut punch, same feeling I had when we found out Buu was sleeping again. What a way to go. Amazing a good day can become a bad day in an instant.

Technically nothing's confirmed. But these implications from the spoilers aren't gonna make Gohan fans happy at all. Not sure I'm ready for the potential outrage that could come from this week's episode >_> <_<

They should have never made those recruitment build up episodes if they were never going to lead to anything. They did the same thing with Krillin.

Gohan feels like the Ash Ketchum of the Dragonball universe. Give the kid a break.

If Gohan fans are going to whine and cry despite Gohan making it to the top eight and there only being a few minutes left in the tournament, they deserved no pity.

Then maybe Toei shouldn't lead people on.

We'll still get the orange spoilers for 125, right? I hope it has more than "something happens to Toppo", this is what I want to see the most.

Well, sounds like he might get his fated new transformation or some shit while taking himself out along with Dyspo. That might be something lol.

After the way Krillin and Piccolo were treated I should have known better. Still I thought since it was Gohan and all he'd be treated differently, guess not.

Pity or not, I'm just pointing out they (potentially) are going to do so. Best I could say is "wait for the episode", but if Gohan getting eliminated comes true, then well, they'll still be pissed no matter what. <_>

They led no one. Gohan got his fighting sense back, he's stronger than ever, has the most scene time after Goku, and got the finishing blows on two universes. But apparently, unless he's knocking out Toppo or Jiren, none of that matters, which makes you and other Gohan fans sound like spoiled brats.

Gohan said he wanted to unlock a new form nobody has seen before. Odd how they can easily give both Goku and Vegeta new forms in the same arc but not Gohan.

Also odd how Gohan is in the background for 90% of the tournament while Goku/Vegeta could hog all the wins even against fodder enemies.

Maybe it could still happen. Maybe not. Nothing's confirmed yet.

The Goku and Vegeta show, unfortunately. Off-topic, but this is why series like One Piece are so good since other characters aside from Luffy get significant attention.
