Probably pretty low.
In general 10-14 kids have no interest in drama.
The episode's only chance of getting high rating would be to expand vegito and have episode 68 been the climax with Trunks and after that everything else would happen.
To be honest excluding some plot point the episode was very slow and the designs did hit rock bottom too for some time.

I can safely say that this episode will be lower than last week

Sun and Moon was absolutely outstanding, so I'm happy to see it in the top 10. Well-deserved.

An increase?! I'm surprised, I figured it'd drop back down to the 5 range or something.

Well now that the arc is over here's the average ratings per saga.

Battle of Gods - 5.89%
Resurrection F - 5.61%
Universe 6 - 6.0%
Future Trunks - 6.27%

And now that I've done that I realised that the arc isn't actually over as the upcoming filler is technically apart of this saga as the Potaufeu filler counts as part of the Universe 6 saga but whatever. Best ratings of the lot so far by a good chunk.

6.7? that's a strong rating for Super. Whatever this next Arc will be, the Future Trunks one will take some beating, that's for sure.

Fail. Trying to predict ratings with so much generalization and subjectivism could only end in fail.

Arc ends on a very strong note. We can safely say it was officially a success.

The rating is higher than last week, which had a 6.6. This week, it's an 6.7. You're prediction was that the ratings would be lower.

Also:
Episode 64 - TV 5.6% (7th)
Episode 65 - TV 5.7% (7th)

So, it maybe seventh again, which is down from last week, it's still got a higher rating than the previous episodes that got the same rating.

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.

Not really, you predicted lower than last week (6.6), which is not the case as episode 67 had a 6.7 rating.
Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

Hey, a small increase in the rating still counts as an increase. :)

Stealing ratings from the lower positions means nothing.
Unless you take something from the higher ones you have no chance. That's why the place is now lower.

Stealing ratings? How?

What Your´re saying could also be applied to the shows that´re above DBSuper.

Sun and Moon being in the top 10 is great because it's seriously the best Pokémon season yet and of course is still going on despite getting pretty bad ratings when compared to One Piece, Shin-chan or even Super so people who are freaking out that Super's ratings are a sign of it not doing so well can take a breather because merch sales are what matter. Super did better than it did the week before, which is a surprise because of Vegito being in 66, which is good for it because while it was a disappointing episode and end to an arc, it wasn't entirely bad. However, I'm really happy to see One Piece above a 7. This means that the anime is picking up traction again in terms of ratings which means that the episodes will likely be above 7s and 8s in the ratings now and will only improve more when the anime gets to the Totland arc.

What's the difference between that and the umpteen other Pokemon shows?

Do they still have that same nonsense that ruined the first like 300 episodes where every single one had Team Rocket show up, give a motto, try and steal Pikachu or some other Pokemon only to get defeated in the end? My god it was the same thing in every episode.

Oh yes, it's totally different. There's no Elite Four or Gym Leaders, Team Rocket doesn't appear til the 3rd episode, Ash is attending Pokémon School with 5 other kids in the Alola region, there's Island Trials where they compete against the Island Guardian to get Z-Crystals for the Z-Ring to do Z-Moves and it's slice of life like the episodes of Super that are inbetween the arcs and the animation and character design is gorgeous. It's changed for the better and this is coming from a guy who hasn't watched the series religiously since Diamond and Pearl.

I think could. But it didn't. The point is to steal some ratings from the top places. Make the rich poorer. Not the poor.....way more poor
