Wow, goku really knocks the crap out of that wolf dude in the extended PV. Poor puppy. Never learned to block.

I think those clips of the fighting and transformations are from the new opening. They're probably not representative of what happens in the actual episode, like most openings aren't

Possible. Right now, the animators used these two scenes for the trailer to showcase the upcoming saga. So if those characters do appear I hope they won't be too weak. Because we need some good opposition for the protagonist.

Universe 6 would have won if Hit did not give up as it looked like Hit would beat Goku if Goku did not give the fight up.
But did they ?
No but as someone who wants to see Goku/Vegeta get real wins against a villain...I don't count Monaka winning as "Goku and Co" personally.

Cabba went back to his race of peacekeepers with a new transformation. Why wouldn't he share it with them?

My current guess is that our new Broli is a lone mutation discovered as the Super Saiyan transformation spread throughout the Universe 6 Saiyans.

We potentially have a planet full of super Saiyans and a legendary popped so early as well..
On top of that they are all good Saiyans, given a planet full of them it won't take long for someone to accidentally do the super Saiyan God ritual..
SSB being just SS on top of that when mastered is also gonna be a thing sooner or later, in that population someone has to be present who keeps the power after time limit..

The whole universe is gonna he littered with SSB's..
Shit

Does Krillin taste a first god ki output in 76? Looks like they're teasing a new power up for humans...?!

Didn't see any "God-like" Ki emanating from Kuririn. The only implication I got was that he lost his fears, or at least gained the ability to fight them. I don't think any power-up was hinted.

I do think he picked up on a new technique though.

Yeah, I was talking about that new white ki he was emanating
I thought this could be a god/ blue human equivalent for the future arc

Yeah, hopefully it is the Scroll of Time. But what would it be doing in Daishinkan's hands?

If there's no Time Kaioshin in 'canon', but there's still some entity keeping track of the history of the universes, who better than Zeno's right hand man?
Though I honestly doubt it has anything to do with the time scroll and is more likely to be a scroll with all the names of the participants or something, as if he's making an announcement.

I would mind a little bit Daishinkan being the one related to time, but just because I love Kaioshin of Time's character. On the other hand, I'd be extremely happy that they finally added the concept of an entity dealing with time in the anime series. The plot needs it.

But yeah, I'm just fooling myself, I know it's something else, but still... :(

Have to agree with this. I don't mind them losing, but they desperately need more wins for themselves. Goku was styling all over the wolf dude.

Why not ? Goku and co did all the work. Vegeta had like 3 wins ffs.

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.

Concerning the female Broly. I can see the King of Saiyans knowing about the female SSJ but held her back from the previous tournament out of concern of her uncontrollable power. But now that the universe is at stake, I feel he will probably bring out the big guns.

Obviously it's just a guess. But it seems possible. For some reason I doubt the king is completely oblivious to the SSJ transformation and has seen it before.
