There's likely no time to do a good series of cuts where Gokuu is fighting multiple people at once. Maybe if this was a movie, but it's not.

Okay, that's better, still not some incredible feat that is impossible for Super to do, 7 seconds of something like that is pretty doable. It could be animated by Higashide and corrected by someone else.
The middle repeating frames section is really awkward looking as well.

Really, I don't know how I could leave out the best part. Really, it's a great fight choreography, and that would be great on EP 98

It's possible, but not for extended periods of time. 7 seconds like that clip is totally doable if they want to do it, but most of the fight will probably be more along the lines of Goku vs the assassins in episode 95.

What movie is this from? I can't remember. I know its from the early movies, and this was from the DBZ intro.

Goku being calm and confident is just what I needed.
The others can work together if they want, but Goku has to be the one who goes out of his way to start blasting people away.

The worrysome part is that Episode 98 is written by Yukinori Fukushima(he wrote the Dojo episode) so there is a high chance Tenshinhan gets eliminated.

Hahaha
That would be fun yes..

No I am not kidding, I want him to eat dirt this time..
Was getting tired of all those tien stronger than Krillin posts because of his alien ancestors so long ago they have been reincarnated more times than one could count..
And if that's not enough, Krillin is getting a boost more than likely yet again!

If Tenshinhan gets eliminated it won't be because Fukishima is writing, that's something that is decided by people above him.

I've been fantasizing Goku having a 1v10 like the IP Man scene for months. 8 is fine too, I guess.

If the grammar of the preview is worth parsing, then the fighters won't be from the same universe since it says "universes".

Now to fulfill another fantasy I've been having: Goku saving an opponent from being ringed out so he can see them fight more. Caulfila preferably.

Anyone think that Genne could be the strongest GoD? He did said that the results would be obvious on why he didn't want to fight with Liquiir, Iwne, and Arack. U1 may be the highest rank Universe, but that does not mean that Iwane is stronger than Genne. U6 has a higher ranking than U7, but it seems like Beerus is stronger than Champa.

He might be saying that because he was smart enough to see what the grand priest was trying to do..
But it does seem like he is more full of himself than the other Gods, can we say for sure that makes him most powerful? Nope

Goku saving a good fighter from another universe would be awesome. Preferably Toppo, Caulifla, Hit or even Jiren if he accidentally slips off the ring.

Then people will get even angrier at his character. We're already complain about Goku not seeming to care that all the people he's fighting are going to get erased if he wins... But then he saves someone from another universe for what purpose? To fight them again?? It will be the selfish Vegeta save all over again.

Those people can stay angry. Chances are it will be that sort of spirit of competition that will save the universes rather than obsessing over your own survival.

Goku getting rushed by eight different people from all sorts of different universes was certainly a scenerio that the arc has been buiding up to and I'm not suprised at all is happening. I hope they use this opportunuity to emphasise that there is strength in numbers and how important teamwork is/can be. Rather than Goku just one shotting all eight opponents.

You can rest assured he won't be one shotting anybody, he mainly wanted to fight and the nep dosen't show him one shotting anybody either..
