I imagine it's going to be reminiscent of the red ribbon arc. Everyone came to go help goku but goku already had the job done. Except instead of Goku it'll be Pan.

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.

Pan gets to beat Watagashi and Gohan gets to beat Barry, everyone wins!

Your comment made me re-read the preview. I didn't realize Barry personally hated gohan. Wonder why?

Probably. Hard to tell what it'll be.

Either way, Barry is already the most relatable character in the show to Doctor.

Since Jan has 5 Sundays that leaves with two episodes, I wonder who/what the next two part mini arc will be(assuming this Saiyaman arc is 2 eps)? Vegeta is too obvious. I'd prefer some Krillin/Kame house shenanigans.

Roshi, Tien and Krillin getting an episode or two would be good.

I would want it to be about 17, introduce him to the show and let us know what he was doing, and also could serve to seeing again the likes of Android 8, Suno.

I wonder if TOEI are trying to sneakily insert plot elements from GT to have a chance at doing them better... Okay, I'm reaching there; I just want hope that the Shadow Dragon Arc idea will come around again.
Lol they'res no way this two episode filler is going to be better than the Baby Arc. I love Great saiyaman and Super but I don't expect much.

I feel like something like that might tie into the main arc. Though if not then yeah I'd be down with that like the Black arc could have done with a preBlack arc about Trunks and his training with the Kioshin and that could've solved a lot of the problems later on.

Can't believe we're getting two Saiyaman episodes in 2017. Who would have expected that after the last two arcs lol.

It's still Goku because he does a good job of being disappointed in Gohan on a regular basis.

Gohan has come back to the show in a big way. It's crazy to think I was wondering if he was even going to be able to play baseball with every one else to now knowing he'll be having his own two-parter.

Not gonna lie, I was worried they would forget him for that episode too but he's been back as a regular since the end of the Trunks arc... which, yeah is pretty crazy considering what fans had to put up with for almost a year now.

Hopefully it's because Toriyama has plans for him and Toei are getting fans used to him again.

It's basically Baby x DevilMan x Concet Beerus.
This will be a great mini arc! Probably better than the actual Baby arc from GT!

Krillin definitely needs a filler. I'm really surprised none of the latest episodes focused on him at all. His only appearance was in the baseball ep and all he got was one brief scene.

Well, seems I was right, they are getting the audience used to gohan, getting his own arc after we begin doubting he existed.. Yeah, pretty awesome time for me, looking forward to this..
Especially for how similar this is to the baby plot, can't wait to see gohan defeat "baby" after how easily and terribly he himself got possessed in gt..
Of course pan herself is gonna defeat Barry, she will be given some love too
