To be honest, as a Krillin fan, I actually agree on it possibly being worse.

On the one hand we'll not have "he's weak/he's a coward/he didn't do anything before going out" which is good, but on the other, unless the episode does a really good job of conveying why(which I'm doubtful for) he elects to throw a disc at the opponent, rather than blinding him and trying something else, it makes Krillin look inconsistant with the way he's been written in the past. He's supposed to be this tournament vet(like Tien, Goku and Roshi) and does this big monologue about how Gohan's not used to tournament rules, before showing his skills. Then he's the first to break the rule...before Frieza even. Wha.

That said, if he puts in a good showing BEFORE being eliminated, I don't mind as much about him being first, I'm just still left scratching my head at the situation that would cause him to try and kill an opponent in the first place, less they were attempting to murder 18.
Well we dont know the circumstances. Like..maybe he accidently kills an invisible fighter.
oooooh...I assumed Tien would be the one to find those guys, but that's an interesting idea. If that happens that's both tragic and kind of hilarious for U4.

Krillin better take out 3-4 nameless mooks before killing someone.

Gotta hand it to super...for better or worse, it's not predictable.

Prior to this, everyone thought Gohan would be totally bodied by Lavenda back in ep80, and now everyone and their mother's predictions of either 18 or tien going first have been totally taken out back and shot.

Oh, that's what that dripping coming from the back of my skull is. I knew I should've kept my mouth shut. Dang it, Trolliyama!

I dont think tht Krillin will be eliminated but disqualified. We actually never had a perfect explanation for SSB other than whis training both of the saiyans and they had it for a fraction of second just like how Gohan went ssj2 in RoSaT. Anyhow,I won't be hapy with Caulifa going blue
The reason Caulifa has no idea about how a person control their Ki flow to suppress their power level to look weak. So absolute ki control from a person who dont know about ki, is absolutely BS writing. Lets hope tht she didnt go blue

This might purely be coincidence, but...after Goku and Gohan stand side by side in the ending for the first time, here's the list of characters that appear after them:

Krillin, Tien, Vegeta

18, 17

Piccolo, Roshi, Frieza

And finally, with the final shot: Goku and Gohan

It's a nice theory, but I don't think they'd spoil the eliminations in the ending :eh:

These spoilers generally are good news me, but I wish I hadn't seen them. We got way too much info far too early. Then again, Toei could be misrepresenting the info to give us an incomplete picture, especially for episode 100.

-Krillin getting DQ'd is fine. He's not particularly powerful or interesting, and never has been except during parts of DB. On a potentially separate but related note, I'm wondering if U4 put the invisible/small fighters in the tournament to have someone accidentally kill them. Maybe there is an ant man whose goal is to get squashed by Goku to DQ him, for example.

-Yes to Kale get ringed out, PLEASE let it be a savage one shot, and please let the other U6 Saiyans follow quickly after. I give full permission for Toei to leave Cabba in as long as he never gets SSB and knocks someone out in a cool way.

-I have yet to say I'm going to stop watching this show for any reason, and I expected to never have to say it, but I would be upset enough at SSB Caulifla that I would strongly consider at least telling others to not bother with it. That's (fanfiction-ception)^2 level bad writing. I hope Goku just gives Caulifla some smart aleck answer like "you have to get a lot stronger and train with Vados," or something like that, but a big part of me is thinking that this girl is getting SSB at some point in the tournament. I hope to Zen-oh I'm wrong.

Krillin's fights have always been interesting to watch even when he loses. He always comes up with great ideas or attacks even before he inevitably goes down. Just look at Krillin Vs. Freeza form 2 on Namek. He of course stood no chance, but the way he was able to last so long and cut off Freeza's tail and hide in that mountain was fun as hell.

Also his fight with Goku in the 22nd and Piccolo in the 23rd tournaments while he did lose to them were still really good fight. Probably some of his best moments were in those.

Any of those wack ass saiyans from universe 6 even get close to ssb I'm gonna lose my ****... absolutely not a good idea. If she goes ssj 3 Maybe, and thats a huge maybe. I don't care what the Japanese girls want.. this will ruin it for many people. Fan service to those extremes, not even Toei is that dumb..or are They? Oh my god.

Indeed, Tenshinhan found out the invisible guys with his third eye. Well he said he felt them, but, his two eyes were closed.

This is the type of thing that can be referenced in the "Official Announcement & Discussion Thread" (where it and the other related topics are already being discussed) — there's no specific need to have a short post in reference to this one tiny item, which itself does not really promote any actual discussion.
