This doesn't make much sense. Goku didn't bother to teamwork with his pals, but then he will with people from other universe? :eh:

That's why I wish they had visited some of these universes in full story arcs before busting out this tournament. Make the audience care by spending an arc involving each of these universes. That's why I'll feel bad about losing Gowasu, but not bad about losing the other kaioshins whose names I never bothered to learn before we barely know them.
True, they could have at least made spin-off with different artist like one with the pride trooper,u6,etc.Like the only new kaioshin I remember is Rou, because his antic were just hilarious and ea because his design was cool but the rest I don't remember them, even the u6 one barely had lines,I'm glad gowasu is still there despite being reduced to a meme, which I'm grateful the ft Saga exist for that reason,I think that's the only death that is going to be sad but I have a weird feeling there gonna execute that scene in the wrong way

I think the reason why is because of their plan of staying in one place defending each other rather than taking the offense and bringing the fight to them.

Why are you wasting your time with Super? You should watch/read OG DB ASAP dude.
Dude doesnt know he skipped a gem, tho I dont think he would enjoy it, he's grown a huge hate for Goku.
How can he even like Dragon Ball if he hates Goku and has never read/watched the first part of the serie. That's quite strange.

If you all are so bored of the show why not just drop it already?

There's no need to announce it or threaten to do so after every episode or spoiler preview. Just do it.

I can't wrap my mind around how anyone could find a show so unenjoyable that they'd go out of their way to watch it, then spend the rest of their week discussing it.

Nobody's forcing you to watch the show. It may very well suck, but if it stresses you all out to the point where you have to blow up countless threads full of the same, spiteful stuff, you're free to bow out gracefully.

At least leave these threads to the people who even have the slightest interest in discussing the announcements and future events instead of continuously writing about how much you hate Super and how you're going to drop it if such and such happens.

Most of your opinions read like what you would see in the youtube comment section in Dragon Ball videos. I'm starting to think this is a parody account.

What's the point in watching the series then?

You're complaining about it being "too centered" around the MAIN character. The series started with him, so yeah he's going to get more screen time than others.

But the fact that you're complaining about this right after we just had an awesome episode focused on Krillin, tells everyone that you're just looking to complain about something.

I agree, but they have the privilege to say they're not enjoying the show. What boggles my mind is they keep saying the exact same thing over, and over, and over, again.

Yes, that is exactly what I do not understand as well. Isn't it natural for people to avoid things they dislike? Let alone waste even more of their time discussing it. We are 100 eps in now if people are still watching then they clearly like and enjoy the show regardless of what they say, simple, you don't invest 2 years in a show you "dislike".

I think his lack of seeing DB explains the hate. I wasn't a big Goku fan myself until I watched DB. Nozawa kills it as kid Goku. He's a hilariously endearing prick, moooostly out of ignorance, but not entirely. His humble interactions with the world around him, and it's reaction to him, is true comedy gold.

Seriously, Dragonballgod19, my dude. Watch all of DB subbed. I really doubt you'll have it in you to dislike Goku after that. And that's all beside the fact that it's literally the first chunk of the story, and gives actual weight to pretty much everything in the Saiyan arc.

You can bond in 40 or so minutes? I think bonding takes more time than that. But since he agreed to fight alongside them you're probably right.

Wow Goku not only was the first to ignore Gohan but he teams up with other people instead of him?I wonder what else will caulifla take that gohan does not have.

The point of the scene is to show how much of a prodigy Caulifla is, not how easy Super Saiyan is to achieve. Cabba says that he's able to turn Super Saiyan on by focusing his energy in a specific way in his back and it creates a tingling feeling and even says that it's not something you can teach because it's a foreign sensation that you have to feel first, but then Caulifla does it anyways.
I can understand people not liking Caulifla getting Super Saiyan so easily, but complaining about "back tingles" is really weird since it's just explaining how the existing Super Saiyans turn the form on.
Yeah the back tingles isn't the issue for most, its just that Goku, Gohan, and Vegeta are prodigies as well, and they had to go through an incredible amount of fighting, training, dying, etc, to achieve what they currently have. Goku didn't first transform until he was a fully grown adult. To see Caulifla do it so easily should bother people, it diminishes the earlier arcs to an extent.

Now if she attains the blue form during the tournament then I think there will be a nearly unanimous negative reaction.
