How are we gonna beat that? He is even looking at Goku's fighting style right now ( considering that makes guy is him )
With a new transformation that the OP hypes in Goku, or SSJBKKx20 and beyond if there will be no new form, still I'm betting theres gonna be a new form from Goku, the OP teases it too much.
Yeah, that's the most obvious answer, but will it really be that simple?
The op teases a new form but it's basically mystic god goku if we were to name that look..
Will they really make it so similar to Gohan's now that he will be having mystic too
DB's pretty simple as I see it.
I think they're only hiding the new form visual so they're not showing it yet, when the form makes its appearance, then they'll show it in the OP, basically the OP will get changes throughout the arc is what I'm expecting.

Fair enough, I am going with the tournament, specifically the match between goku and the bald guy not ending and that's when the tournament gets interrupted..

The episode descriptions say that Gohan's match is the second round so does that mean that it is not winner stays on?

Power might not be the way to beat this new guy.

Yeah Gohan straight up fights lavenda, unless buu and basil have knocked each other out , it's pretty clear they will be going with one match per person setup

I wonder if gohan temporarily lost his eyesight or its something more serious, and therefore he wouldn't continue fighting further..
If gohan really got permanent blindness, it's good majin buu is here, he can cure it right? ( Unless that was an anime only scene )

Could be, but with DB's way of doing things, you can basically power out any hax if you have enough ki for it, just look at what happened to Hit, tho that was filler but still :lol:

I feel like U7 aint winning anyways and something happens down the road as well, when Gohan said "If something happens, you'll do something right?" that right there was the flag.
Who's to say the GoD's will be quiet about this whole thing when the destruction of their universe starts, as well as the fighters, I wish a rumble will start mid way!

If Boo isnt able to do something about it, they can always count on Bulma to create a heal for it, ask the earth DB's or senzu, wait, can a senzu heal blindness?

Don't think senzu can do the trick, we didn't even see them bring any..
Unless they want gohan to suffer the whole tournament until they visit dende, buu seems like the best choice

Buu can cure blindness. He already did it. Though I'm expecting Gohan's blindness to be temporary.

How bout Whis? maybe his staff can heal it? his staff or him is full of weird magician hax shit anyways.
Maybe they'll get a break to go home and gather up members for the main match, he'll only be done in this exhibition match after winning or losing.

Yeah, but that break will be after Goku's match and going to earth after that is a long journey..
We don't know if whis can do it, they can always add stuff to his staff as they go forward anyways..
As of now buu us the only know option..
Thanks for clearing that up emperior :thumbup:

I am expecting it to be permanent as to give us a sense of danger in future fights

God no, why permanent? and besides maybe the posion doesnt last that long, like how Frost's was.

I just randomly found this picture when I was browsing on Pinterest:

I'm aware that all of these concept designs drawn by Toriyama had already been revealed before, but I don't remember seeing Frost's second and final form. Does anyone here happen to have a full picture of that?

Buu might actually lose the fight due to a gag scene, then Gohan wins it but he might win it a fluke fashion, that is also a reason for him to train and regain his mystic form.

U7 sweeping could also happen though.

Let me rephrase that, permanent until buu pulls out his magic hands :lol:

Seems like Gohan's fight will be an exact copy of his watagash fight..
Caught off guard check
Being beaten around check
Fighting spirit returning and power increase check
Finishing in opponent in a blow after that, hopefully check

Similar fashion, he somehow will awaken Mystic form(temporarily) and beat Lavenda, it would be cool if Gohan gets SSJ Ikari, but doubt it happens.

I'm thinking the reason Daishinkan seemed upset in the NEP and U9 group sweating in fear is probably due to Buu forfetting his match because he doesnt want to hurt a doggy(Basil), basically Buu ignoring what Daishinkan said about not giving it all in the fight.

I am sure gohan can't access mystic right now, as I said, I expect this to be a complete copy of watagash fight, only the villan is changed.. he goes SS and finishes the job..
Mystic gohan and blue goku would probably be saved for the real deal..

I don't think grand priest is upset for that, we see something has happened to satan, maybe buu goes out of bounds to check on him..
Maybe a stray ki blast hit him

He couldve regained it during the 9 month timeskip but could use it temporarily(like how he could use SSJ temporarily back in FnF).

If Lavenda has a transformation then he might not get 1 shotted(although that decreases the change of Gohan winning too). :think:

We see goku saying gohan will regain his fighting sense back in no time, he has great power and goku knows it all too well..
This shows Gohan wasn't supposed to be training in Toriyama's outline, gohan would have his fighting sense intact if he was fighting with piccolo..

Now when we consider what happened in the manga we see there wasn't supposed to be any gohan present after rof arc..
In rof the best he could do is SS and was also out of shape..

This is me putting two and two together but its obvious to me toriyama just now thought of a way to include gohan because of these stakes, hence the line from Goku..

It also seems good that way, gohan continued with his scholar life after the freeza fight and just now came out if retirement to protect his home once again..
It's totally in line with the character toriyama said in an interview he thought gohan was and not to mention it's more satisfying than this mess of a Gohan they created who jumps around with his motivations all the time..
