Well, Most people assumed his been dead all these years. So I guess that's where the surprise is from.
Why would they assume that ? Piccolo heavily stated that he was alive when they wished for Cell's victims,Krillin wished for both his and 18's bombs to be removed and we literally see him in the buu saga.
Same reason why people think that Toriyama stole the idea of 17 being a park ranger from Teamfourstar.

11/10 post. :lol:
Why does Goku turn SSB so damn often? It'd be more aesthetically pleasing if he used something like, say, Super Saiyan 3 once in a while. It would offer more variety and it would convey the same damn thing. Krillin's way weaker than Goku; it doesn't matter whether he's SS3 or SSB. Is animating Blue easier or something?
Actaully it doesn't, the whole point of Goku going SSGSS was to show Krillin what it is like facing that kind of pressure and to see Krillin's response to such pressure "what will you do now Krillin", plus Krillin knows Goku has SSGSS so going 3 would not have had the same effect, and then you saw how much Krillin was shaking after. The point of Goku's spar with Krillin was not to showcase how weak Krillin was, the ToP is a real thing with tremendously powerful foes.

That makes me question why he didn't transform to blue against gohan
It was a wholly different scenario, he is recruiting Krillin for a life and death tournament and needed to test his resolve, Gohan was just a friendly sparring match.

Well their sparring was interrupted by Chi-Chi, and didnt Goku mention Gohan was forcing him to put some effort?
He did he admitted he got carried away in the fight.

I wonder if we will see the other Universes fight each other. I would hate it if they did all off screen since it would be too lazy if you ask me.

The universes seem to be making a plan to gang up on U7 based on the preview for the next episode. I could see a scenario where the battle initially is something like Universes 7, 6 and 10 vs the other ones, which would allow them to show pretty much every fight on screen.

I can see Everyone ganging up on U7. U6 will probably get a whiff of this and step in to help them. This would also set the stage for Jiren to show just how strong he is by taking out Hit.

I think they will because Jiren and two more Pride Troopers will make their first in-episode appearances.

He is an Android though. That was super strong before without any sort of training, it has literally been years since we saw him.
It funny that after what we got with Freeza in RoF, people think it's reasonable to think everyone could get stupidly strong off-screen with little effort.
TheMikado wrote:...but generally in Z people didn't comeback significantly stronger unless the actually had some kind of motivation. Goku and Piccolo were gone for years before Z and they weren't magnitudes of power stronger...
Sadly I think we should realize that Super do not follow the same logic we had in Z.

Are you kidding? Why would Goku need 17's help? Why would Goku need anyone's help? He would just blast the animal away :D

By the time Goten and Trunks turned SS, for instance, people should've realized Z wasn't following Z's so-called logic anymore. Or maybe even earlier, when an Earth scientist managed to come up with androids stronger than the emperor of the universe and Super Saiyans?

I know the forum asks us to type properly but can't we just let the odd little ways of type go now and again, If I wanna say "me" instead of "I" once in a blue moon I'm sure none will care when its not I'm not typing a page worth's of information
I had to man..
If it's a small mistake in a full paragraph it dosen't matter much, but if the only sentence is a mistake it kind of a bummer..
Except that's not a mistake. That's just a quirky way of saying it.

Because it's logical? 17 was stupid strong in the first place without any sort of training just like Freeza so it's only logical that they get even stupidly stronger by training. In you're precious Z Goku got stupidly stronger after 7 years off screen so....

It doesn't make much sense, 17 was artificially modified and freeza was a natural born, 17 wasn't stupid storng when he was not modified, even if he does improve he will still have the human body to improve, which dosen't get stupidly strong at all..

I know we can force it to work by saying his modifications help him surpass his human training earning limits but until that's stated it dosen't fit well with him getting stonger than even buu who has trained a lot himself

Just saying its okay for him to get stonger but I can't see him getting stonger than buu..
That's just my take on his potential
