I want Toppo to suplex LSSJ Kale.
"Dragon Ball once became a thing of the past to me, but after that, I got angry about the live action movie, re-wrote an entire movie script, and now I'm complaining about the quality of the new TV anime. It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

Honestly, Cauli was perfectly fine. They're enemies, why should she treat him kindly. Especially if she knows that he's the reason for this.

I think a lot of people just assumed U6 and U7 have some bond and that theyd work together. Obviously Caulifa herself has no bond but still.

It feels like your usual 'tournament rival becomes ally' set-up to me. They'll all probably be friends by the end.

But she doesnt know its Goku's fault, nothing was implied that she knew, and from what she said all she cares about is being the best fighter in the universe, she doesnt want to act chummy chummy towards people that'll be a stepping stone for that reach and while yeah that sounds sooooo cool for some, I personally dont like it as I'm tired of girl characters like that, its not just beacuse they're enemies, Cabba was perfectly fine interacting with them since his first appearance, and they're enemies.

Its not about wanting them to look like they have a bond, its about showing respect, while on Toppo's case I can understand since he's pissed with Goku for a good reason, Cauli on the other hand smacked someone's hand that was being nice to her just because she see's it as "I'm gonna be the number 1 fighter in the universe, I wont act all friendly towards people that'll just serve purpose for that"

I am OK with Ginyu Force being Tokusentai parody, but this was too much for me... Also, I don't like Cale's squeaky voice, it grinds my ears. I love Nozawa for example and don't see what issue everyone has with her,
but I can't stand that Japanese anime damsel in distress with dumb squeaky voice, like ''I am weak girl, please, buy a pillow with my picture and touch me you pervs watching this tv show''.

Another message from hell :lol: The more older I go, the more I don't like anime and it's modern tropes the most... watching Super just for Dragon Ball, but I've ended somewhere in the early 90's with Gundam, DB, Yu Yu Hakusho and Saint Seiya and that's it...
I liked Nana Mizuki as Hinata in Naruto, her voice is how Kale shouldve sounded in base form, Yukana is terrible, I knew it was gonna be terrible if she was going use her One Piece Shirahoshi voice on Kale.
Oh no!!! It's Shirahoshi??? Because of that arc, I stopped watching One Piece alltogether and even posted about it somewhere on this forum.
I really hated that character because of that voice and it killed One Piece for me :lol: :lol: :lol:

It makes sense... I really, really, really hate that voice.

Well with that reasoning I dont see what she did wrong. In these circumstances being nice will only get you killed.

The issue isn't even Caulifa it's that my fear of what they would do since they announced female Saiyans. They have ZERO idea how to portray really powerful women without their personalities degrading into cocky @$$holes. It's a chronic issue and throwing more women at it doesn't resolve the core issue. In order for Videl to become cooperative and pleasant to Gohan she basically gave up fighting. Like at this point I'm not sure she can even still fly. It's not like like they imply she's still really strong or anything. It's not that it's even poorly portrayed it's just that they are going on the same route as Pans characterization which I absolutely hated and most of the fandom did as well. Even if she has character development later this kind of general attitude can get tiresome rather quickly as seen by the many called to have her head beaten in.

If we are talking about cauliflowa here, she has displayed perfectly acceptable dere side to her sister..
Plenty of tsundere get their badges as they are sweet to their non MC friends..

Having tolerated tsundere for so long and finally getting one in Dragonball where I can watch her get what that character type deserves, I can't help but get excited..
It's gonna be so much fun

So we know it's at least 5 episodes (97-101), I honestly see it not being any less than 10 episodes long.

Goku Vs. Jiren alone is probably going to be at least 2-3 episodes. Assuming every other major character gets at least one full episode, then we're definitely in a long haul. There will probably be just as many tournament episodes as there was recruitment episodes so it's not lopsided.

For some reason others seem to believe Cauli is acting like that towards Goku because he's the cause of all this or that she's afraid of death or something, I'd just like to say that she does not care about those stuffs nor was either implied, when Cabba came to her she couldnt care less about universal destruction, what got her into joining is about the same reason that Goku has, to be the number 1 fighter in the universe, their reasons are the same but the way they interact with people are different and thats what pisses me off, if she was pissed with Goku because she's worried about extinction like Toppo then I wouldnt even be mad at what she did.

She acted bitchy towards a character being nice to her, that itself is a troupe I've seen countless times and I hate it.

I'm disappointed this panel didn't make the cut in the anime:
[spoiler]Image[/spoiler]
Since the arc begun I was waiting for this because honestly there's no better way to introduce all the Gods, but now that the Tournament is about to start I already lost all hope.
I wonder why they didn't do it like this, because I doubt the Gods formally dressed like that come directly from Toyotaro and not from Toriyama.

-Opening and Eyecatches-

They should have already updated both with Freeza like they did with the Ending. Hopefully they do it next week when we get the new Ending.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.
