This is a comment by the producer and from it I get that it is a turning point in the tournament and that it will start to get serious with all the big fights starting and this will continue until the tournament ends.

Per the prdoucer, the DBS special will mark the start of the tournament's climax, as Goku starts to fight Jiren.
The start of the tournament's climax as Goku starts to fight Jiren.
"continuous run from Goku and co.’s big battle to the climax" Goku and co.'s big battle could mean all of them going for Jiren.

More likely he meant that others will be having their final battles while Goku does.

Not to say there can't be some team up at some point but that's what I got from it.

I'm glad the "special" is after OP means we don't have to wait a 2 weeks between it and the next DBS episode!

I just want it all to be focused on Goku vs Jiren.

I asked Furuya what his Yamcha tweet 3 months ago was about. He answered me today and it was for Dragon Ball Fighterz. Not for Dragon Ball Super or a special, but for the game. At least we now know he is in the game.

Why didn't they start in episode 105 or 106. They are not going to take out 30 fighters. THAT IS RIDICULOUS!
Because they're just about to? if you havent noticed every ep has been moving pretty slow in universe, that or giving our cast their screentime before going down, they didnt exactly just brought the older characters up just to have them not get a good showing before going down.
They wont our Namek friend is right. You Goku Fanboys need to realize he won´t be the last man standing and winning the tournament.

After 105 there are 34 minutes and 40 fighters left.
Basically 9 Episodes = 14 minutes in the ToP and you will tell us its soon already over with the upcoming Goku vs Jiren fight. :lol:
We havent even seen Frieza since his short scenes in 101(w/Vegeta beating up the U10 guy) and 102 (the love attack) and our cast had enough screentime?
Vegeta wasnt seen 3 Episodes in a row now.

Of course Goku Fanboys want all for himself as usual. Let Jiren eliminate 35 Fighters so Goku vs Jiren is the end of the Arc...
Not gonna happen, boys. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Maybe the ToP get interrupted bc the ring is close to being destroyed. Maybe Goku and Jiren ringout each other :D
Its just madness how ignorant people are thinking we have
3 Episodes left with 40 fighters and 34 minutes in the ToP until the final showdown. :lol:

No

It's just two episodes back to back. There's nothing special about them except that. Just two standard episodes, airing back to back, on the same day

That is literally all
Oh okay thanks.
I was under the impression that since the Bardock "Movie" was called a special, this would be the same, but i guess i was wrong.

Where in my post did I say or even imply Goku will be the last man standing and will win this? I'm saying Jiren lacks character and lacks the feats to show that he is an actual threat.

Jiren beating Goku easily while in SSBKK is enough.

I would have believed that if Goku wasnt getting a new form. The hype of the biggest threat not even throwing one single character out of the ring? not happening, they're saving a lot of U7 and 6 members for him.

We know he is really strong becuase of Toppo and what he did to Kale so just facing Goku makes more sense then defeating anyone else.

If Jiren is who needs to be hyped, there are only two ways for it to happen..
Him taking out almost all remaining contestants in a swoop
Or him beating someone strong enough, Vegeta and freeza come to mind.. As beating SSBKK isn't enough coz Goku isn't exactly "beat" like that..

I will go the route of his team doing the first choice and him taking part in the second..
Reasons being
• There are only 3 pride troopers left and Toppo is done playing hero, so is dyspo.. They take care of other fighters so Jiren doesn't have to..
• Freeza was said to be equal to Goku for a reason and hero's trailer helps too, Jiren beats Freeza easily and we get Goku vs Jiren in the special..

Frieza, Vegeta etc haven't done anything yet or had a real fight so far. Many people want to see them fight. Toei can't be so stupid...

Since when did DB only went with saying "oh, Jiren is strong" and that serves as enough of a reason to not give him a good feat when it comes to fighting? and him defeating Kale wasnt even that good considering it wasnt even a fight, Kale was high and wasnt even looking at him, from the looks of it Jiren caught her off guard as she was going for Cauli for some reason. We need actual characters going to him and challenging him, if not then by far Jiren's the most horribly handled main enemy of an arc, a sorry excuse of a threat.

There you go, maybe Jiren is not the biggest threat for Universe 7.

You actually believe everyone is getting knocked out in the next few episodes just becuase Goku is fighting Jiren very soon.

No I actually believe if that's what happens, it's not Toie being stupid, it's a plot point by Toriyama..
Because something like that is Vital to the story

Toriyama will more than likely have Goku and Jiren go out then everyone else going out quickly.

Producer of Super says this:
'Starting in October, it at last reaches a turning point as Goku finally faces off with his strongest opponent, Jiren. From there on out it will truly be a continuous run from Goku and co.’s big battle to the climax'.

Also, the PV for the DB hour long TV special/double episode was released.

And everyone reacts.

Not the biggest threat but Goku and Jiren's fight is referred to as the climax battle... right.

I can see that happening, but I still think Jiren will take out some U7 and 6 characters, its strange how only 1 of their members are out while 2 universes already went boom and U11 the supposed big threat are down to 3, its going way too good for our protagonists.
