I don't want Cabba knocked out either. He's one of my favorite new characters. But if it is between Cabba & Vegeta

I am so sorry Cabba I just met you but Vegeta I have loved for 17 years. It's all about priorities ha ha.

Anyways there is obviously something happening between Vegeta/Cabba/Freeza but what it is is anyone's guess.

What I want to know is what so must see about the episode....
I'm not exactly interested in vegeta vs freeza 3 where hit vs vegeta 2 or vegeta vs toppo is much more Intresting
Cabba vs freeza isnt must see considering freeza can slaughter him with ease
So what is it
Vegeta possible new form
New technique.. (gamma ray flash)?
What is it?

I don't think Vegeta should be working with Cabba to knock someone out on his own team. I know he hates Freeza but that is a bit much. :lol:

Though I can see why Vegeta may feel conflicted here!

It could be apart of his training.

That photo implies there is going to be some sort of fight between these 3.
Fail to see how when cabba is massively inferior to the two
All he really has to do is catch either one off guard. :p

Didn't Goku do that same turnaround when he first became a Super Saiyan?

If Freeza goes after Cabba maybe he goes also after Caulifla and Kale, and the girls get a powerup in episode 114?

If you notice all the old U6 characters from the previous tournament went out really quickly. Cabba lingers on but he got no focus so far and is just in the background.
It's sad that these two fanservice characters are outlasting and getting more screen time than the original Team U6. They couldn't even find a good way to eliminate most of the original U6 members. Botamo get eliminated after having one of the worst fights in the series, Magetta got eliminated just for the sake of a dumb gag that no fan cares about, and Frost got eliminated after looking like an idiot, even though 107 established him as a very tactical fighter.

Though as a Hit fan, I'm fine with him getting eliminated in the next episode by the strongest person in the tournament as long as he gets some good hits in, which it looks like he will based on the NEP. If Hit actually does more damage than SSBKK did to Jiren, then that confirms that Hit is easily the 3rd strongest in this tournament and much stronger than the likes of Freeza and Vegeta.

I wouldn't say stronger, I would say it proves Hit is a far better combatant and general tactican than Freeza and Vegeta,who outside of tricking Frost for fun of it, haven't had any real strategic victories.

When I say strong, I'm not just talking about pure brute strength and power level. I'm factoring in intelligence and techniques. If Hit can land an effective hit against Jiren, who is like 50x stronger than SSB, then he should have no problem with beating Freeza or Vegeta tbh, unless Jiren is secretly an idiot when it comes to tactics (which is a baseless claim). And based on that image of Jiren from a few pages ago, Hit will land a very heavy blow on Jiren.

Hit's performance against Dyspo also makes me think he's above SSB level. Hit was only losing the first round because Dyspo was told about the Time-Skip while Hit had no knowledge on Dyspo's ability, which gave Dyspo an unfair advantage. Later on, when they're on an even playing field, Hit trolls Dyspo like he's nothing, even though SSG/SSB Goku couldn't land a hit on Dyspo and was getting pushed back by him.

Now the question is jus if the attack Hitto lands on Jiren actually hurts him or not.

Well, judging by the leaks, it will have next to no effect.

If both the sayain girls survive 3 consecutive episodes dedicated to them that'll leave a bad taste in my mouth.

That picture that Toshio tweeted was unintentionally funny to me. It looks like Freeza is yelling at Vegeta for playing teacher instead of knocking his opponent out. I swear, if Freeza will be portrayed as the voice of reason :D ....

That's what the Animage 112 preview sounded like to me:
The Tournament of Power is nearing its end. Though Cabba is fighting for the sake of Universe 6, he is having a tough battle against the super highspeed tackles of Universe 4's Monna. Just as he thinks he's done for, amazingly enough Vegeta saves him. Though Vegeta rouses Cabba by telling him to "fight to be MVP", Freeza is not amused...

More Vegeta/Frieza scenes are always welcome. I love how ToP Frieza is teasing the Prince ... although if they fight now, the battle will go way different than it did in RoF.

Some bring up that the attack looks to be affective but it's premature to assume anything based on a 30 second preview. Besides, we'll see the fight tonight.
