I just accept she's incredibly one note, stupid, but with a funny gimmick. Which is basically what Lunch was too. Kale's just more fun because she hulk's out and it's hard to take her seriously. It's even funnier when Jiren is tired of this shit and swats her away like a fly :lol:.

That's a good thing. I want her character fleshed out more as well as her form.
That could benefit Kale as a character if Caulifla is eliminated before her.

Everyone here complaining about Kale or Caulifla, and I'm just here hyped about Hit and Cabba's performance. Hit was so badass this episode and Cabba knocked out two fighters like they were trash.

I have to respectfully disagree with you on this one. Broly had no personality to speak of Kale has an inferiority complex.
And she's very possessive of Caulifla, and she's extremely insecure. She's placed all of her eggs in the Caulifla basket,
and when it seems like it's going to go away she loses it.

Although it may not be the most complex thing in the universe. Her motivation for hating Goku is better written than a baby crying next to Broly.
and holding that grudge for 30+ years.
Read again: "even less personality" and you will get what I meant.

Both had no personality, but at least they tried something original with Broly (Movie Eight), Kale is just a bad copy paste with some Kid Gohan on with.

At this risk of being called a blind fanboy I will make an attempt here anyway,
TheOne wrote: No we are NOT overreacting. You guys are just being complacent with inconsistent writing and storytelling.
That's the thing though. In the case of Kale tanking SSB, it's not inconsistent. This form has had not any previous experiences to gauge it on. No Broly doesn't count. She isn't Broly. No Caulifla smacking away and energy ball isn't a proper gauge. I get if someone doesn't like Kale and it's cheap to make her form that powerful, I would agree, but there is no contradiction here.
TheOne wrote:If you just take a look and see how ridiculous this all is, it's embarrassing. A lot of people think Goku and Vegeta are closing the gap on Beerus, but I can't see Beerus getting swung around like Goku somehow managed to do.
Well that's an assumption fans have made. There isn't much to suggest how small or gap there is between Goku and Beerus.
TheOne wrote: Going by her performance here, she could've fought toe to toe with hit in the Champa arc.
Maybe, Maybe not. Goku could take Hit because he figured out his Time skip trick. Even ignoring that Kale tossing around a SSJ2 Goku and tanking a blast from SSJB doesn't tell me she can take hit. HIt is more than just raw power.
TheOne wrote:anybody who thinks this is just fine and criticizes people for not liking how they approached things, must really not be bothered with terrible writing and storytelling.
I can't speak for everyone but, it's not about being bothered by writing or storytelling, it's more about not being bothered by things that don't need to be bothered about. Getting rid of the yardrat so easily after calling attention to him and making him seem like he should be watched out for. That's upsetting. That' a missed opprutinity, and Super is full of them and it's very frustrating. Kale's form being stronger than what some fans assumed it would be, after having little to go on in the first place. I don't even think that's a blip on the radar.

Gohan had a build up throughout the entire series. It's completely different from Kale. Kale was this super fragile girl who'd probably lose to master Roshi in a fight, to someone that can manhandle a SSB Goku.

The only situation off the top of my head that turned out to be absolute crap was in Super. Everything else was believable since he was the only half breed aside from Goten and Trunks. They've always hinted that half breeds were stronger.

I am not criticizing Gohan character, just pointing that Kale has a bit of him as a kid. Though it little to no build into her character.

I'm honestly not even upset over the Kale over powering a SSJB Goku. What baffles me is why in Gods name they just didn't use Broly himself. Mabey in the manga?

Anyways, what amazed me was Vegeta saying be carefull that might be the true/real Super Saiyan form. What does that even mean? That the form is really the legendary SSJ? If the damn thing can rival Blue then I'd say the theory of SSG and LSSJ battling years ago is very likely. Evil Saiyans vs good.

I don't know if I'd call Kid Gohan an "annoying brat". A kindhearted wimp/pussy, yes. But he never came across as annoying to me.

Idk whats wrong with making Kale that strong when most of the people in this picture could take care of her.

Image

U2 seems to have 3 Blue level people for the looks of it.

We could agree that Brianne in Blue mode(when she transforms) after what Kale did tonight .

I think it might just be a fake out. It'll look like they're in a situation Caulifla can't save them from, then Kale will transform without being jealous out of desperation and we'll see that other Super Saiyan form. This time she'll save Caulifla and prove she's not a burden. I think if Caulifla does get eliminated, Kale will go on another rampage. :lol:

Its dumb of Caulifla not sticking together with Hit after he saved her.

Because in the next episode she and Kale are forced to team up with Goku, 18 and 17 vs the Pride Troopers.

I don't understand. Why is this image from the episode significant. It is just a bunch of fighters who could sense how powerful Kale was getting. Jiren is the only one not fazed by it.

You guys think Kale wasn't supposed to be introduced until the tournament?

I feel like tori and toei aren't communicating well. I can't be sure but I think recruitment arc was filler and that would make these eliminations make more sense and power jump

Question: then why didn't future trunks have rage boosts like Gohan?

In fact , no one got that but gohan. it's almost like it was his thing.
