How long would Caulifla and Kale be able to fight for since they are obviously very injured?
They can't fight at the moment, which is why they're resting. But being tired have never stopped a Saiyan from getting a second wind. And I don't think Champa would have freaked outs so badly about Hit if the U6 Namekians could turn the tides.
Just look at Vegeta: His whole character can be summed up in him crawling out of the crater after Kid Buu slaps his ass down.

Will that second wind be enough though?

They didn't even comment on the Namekians in episode 96 and I am not saying they are as strong as Hit but this secrecy is getting ridiculous now. If the Universe 4 bugs are either really small or invisible then the Namekians are the only ones they deliberately tried to hide.

Probably not, but they're not down yet.

I honestly think the U4 are fodder and may give Tien his own shining moment before he gets ringed out.

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.

Tien does seem like he will fight the bugs and they will probably be there best. It seems like Universe 4 is going to be the Universe for Krillin, Tien and Roshi.

There's also one or two from Universe 2 being hidden in the shadows when the team was introduced.

We could make them out and the scene in episode 96 where the fighters were dodging the material to build the arena showed us exactly what they look like. Blanka is also in the ending. They are still probably going to be big players due to the way they are being handled.

The Namekians are definitely being hidden as they did not even make a comment about them in episode 96 and were being very crafty when revealing them and the Universe 4 bugs are probably just invisible.

Correction, Vegeta and Piccolo both are retiring after this arc, they brought Gohan back to be the one rivaling Goku, he always has surpassed everyone whenever he had the chance, and he is back now.. I suggest you say your goodbye to Piccolo this arc, he might not even be good enough as his meat shield job in a few years..
All of you need to stop for a second.
I respect your wrong opinions but Freeza is gonna be Goku's rival,he was brought back for a reason and he always had surpassed everyone whenever he had the chance and he is the only one that can keep up.
Your Vegetas,Piccolos and Gohans can be his cheerleaders and maybe just maybe they will matter enough in the future to be stepping stones for a friendship power up for him.
:clap: :clap: :thumbup:

Freeza is the greaterst prodigy of all time, and he will be able to catch up on Goku just by flexing is muscles in ROSAT.
Alos he won't get soft like Vegeta or Piccolo, ever.

The mannerisms, movements, the angles they showed him at, as well as the VA had me feeling like Dyspo was Rammot from HxH.

亀仙人が第4宇宙の戦士たちを相手にバトルを繰り広げる。自分よりも強大な力を持つ相手に、老練な技で優位に闘いを進めていた亀仙人だったが…!?

Its Roshi vs the rest of U4, there is a slight chance U4 gets erased next week, but Roshi sacrifices himself in the process.

It would such a waste if Roshi eliminated a good chunk of Universe 4 on his own. But at the same time, it would be so fucking awesome. Dammit, why doe Super get me so conflicted at times?

Wow if Roshi dies after wiping out U4 by himself that's going to be fucking epic. I hope that's exactly what happens.

It would be great if Roshi does eliminate Universe 4 but what about the bugs? They surely won't be eliminated yet.

I wonder if Tien's gonna remember that he knows the Mafuuba as well...

After this episode, I'm sure about a thing, even more than before: Jiren is the worst character ever created in this franchise

Toei and Toriyama's intentions were to give him a misterious, powerful an serious tone, making him feel like a really dangerous enemy

Now I feel like they dragged this game for too long, basically making him looks like a retarded, buff idiot who can't say a word other than " get lost" and " mmhhh" ( this episode)


What the fuck, eliminate him NOW :lol: I can't stand him anymore, seriously

I know is probably impossible, but I'd laugh my ass off if someone stronger kicks in and beat him to death
Please Toei make me love him, make him do something really badass to change my mind

He said a word to Goku, isn't fighting and standing meanwhile his team is getting eliminated, could have knocked kale out, dosen't do it and defeats her in the most anticlimactic way possible ..
I don't know how you can get anymore badass than this, like what do you want him to do? Go ahead and actually fight like he is supposed to?
Unrealistic expectations from a children's cartoon I say..

Yeah, at this point I'm just preparing myself to be disappointed, he'll wait 'til most of the participants are out, then we'll have the fight with Goku teased in the intro, and nothing more

Wasted occasion imo

Even a finally mature and in control Kale could be better as a final boss, or Hit, but Jiren...uhm

And yeah, the way he's looking his comrades being humiliated, while having the potential to wipe out a good 90% of the fighters in the stage is laughable
He could literally wipe out something like 50 fighters with a sneeze and without dropping sweat
