Right, if I hadn't known about Buu I would for sure be confident that Tien and or Roshi were gonna replaced as their motives last week were paper thin to begin with and this week Tien didn't really demonstrate anything. We know Freeza is a replacement but we don't know if Freeza is the only one, could still be multiple.
It isn't like Buu had big motives.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Sorry if repeat saying this but the writers put themselves into a corner by having Tenshinhan stomped by Roshi, they couldnt have Ten have any offense on Piccolo otherwise Piccolo wouldve been shat on and make you think Roshi is stronger than him.

Tenshinhan getting rekt was sadly the most logical option.

Gohan is Blue level otherwise we wouldnt have seen Vegeta smiling, he was proud of Gohan as much as he was proud of Trunks at the end of the Black Arc.

Gohan is not blue level though ! maybe he will be later on but right now he really isn't,he asked Goku to go full power Goku wasn obliged to and he didn't fight with ssb Goku that long to determine he's on pair with him Goku took the hits with no damage or struggle and went directly to ssb kioken.

They didn't put themselves in a corner, tien didn't expect that attack at all, and it's an attack specially made to shock, it's a little hard to get the bearings back quickly after such a thing..
This episode, gohan was protecting piccolo, they wanted to show us how the team strategies triumph over raw power..

Now that Freeza is confirmed to be "revived" for 24 hours and Universe 10 team seems to be a joke, couldn't they play the same card and bring back Goku Black/Zamasu to the battle royal?! Poor Gowasu. He's doomed.

A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Piccolo has very deadly moves that can beat opponents in 1 hit so Gohan and Piccolo definitely need to do this combination again in the tournament.

They could have gave Tien at least 1 hit on Gohan.

How could Gowasu bring back Goku Black, if he died in U7 in another timeline while he was fused? And he would never ever bring back Zamasu, also Zamasu was a Kaio so he probably wouldn't be allowed to enter the tournament.

I have a feeling that U6 will fight U11 first. They will probably have Jiren beat Hit and Kale to show off his true power.

Kale's power can't be judged if she doesn't fight us first because for all we know the uni 11 guy who beat her was holding back, we would never know.

Universe 9 are the dark horses imo, looks like they arent going to turn into background characters yet, we are going to see Bergamo talking with Sydra in the next episode.

I saw some people predict that they will get that Smug Fox from the opening, with the reason that they didnt call him for the Exhibition matches because of the old Wolf vs Fox rivalry.

Does anyone see Goku putting Universe 7 fate on Gohan reminds you of Goku putting Earth fate on Gohan vs Cell :think:

It's similar but vastly different at the same time, we will know what was the intent after the arc ends

So, now that Gohan has got serious, if he continues this he will eventually get the strongest guy title back, and goku won't be able to take the front seat again.
So, What else can they do to keep him out after this, besides pulling him forgetting his lesson yet again?

Probably Vegeta and Goku will travel to another universe. Apart from that it will probably just be another case of character assassination.

This has me nervous. I know they're going to have to make him slack again because it's the only way to keep Goku looking special.

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.

Can't believe we're almost at 100... Has it really been two years?
