Cabba has the fighting stance and moves of Vegeta.

Caulifla has the fighting mentality of Goku.

Kale has the transformation of Broly and acts like him when she gets out of control.

Frost is evil and power hungry as Frieza.

Saonel and Pilina have the looks of Piccolo and Slug but we will have to see if there is anything else.

It is probs 'cuz we aren't used to it having only seen it shirtless or half shirtless. I wouldn't be surprised if people said the same thing about SS after Namek back in the day!
I don't know mate, I think Gold looks good in everything, plus the clothes matching with the color when the aura is activated. I miss that in Super

I am just glad SS isn't as prominent as it is was in Z as with DBS the colouring makes it super ugly.

You do realise that Caulifla is suppose to be Goku in Universe 6?
Which is all fandom.
What do you mean? It is obvious.

Goku = Caulifla
Vegeta = Cabba
Broly = Kale
Frieza = Frost
Piccolo = Saonel
Slug = Pilina

I'd like to see Toriyama's input on Caulifla to see if he purposely made her similar to Goku, since Cabba is somewhat like Vegeta.
They are obviously different just like how the races as a whole are different but we can definitely tell who 6 fighters of team Universe 6 are suppose to represent.
Cabba acts nothing like Vegeta. Heck, Cabba said that Vegeta reminds him of U6 Saiyan king.

Cali is only similar to Goku in that like fighting. Otherwise, they’re also different.

We don’t know a thing about Saonel and the same Pilina. Nail looks like Piccolo too and he wasn’t a counterpart. The only real counterparts is Kale and Broly doesn’t even exist in Super and Frost. The rest are paper thin.

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.

All of Universe 6 was meant to mirror 7.

Botamo was supposed to mirror Buu, even all the adverts showed Buu fighting Botamo. That's why Botamo is so fat and can reflect attacks.

Cabba probably more represents Gohan, in that they're similar and need to learn to become strong from a mentor. I don't know who Magetta represents? Dr. Rota is probably Yamcha or Krillin.

Sorry but the girls are here to stay. They are getting too much attention and wouldnt be surprised if they get to reach the Final 10-15.

The Namekians have gotten 0 hype so far.
While I want the Best Showing and Development for the Namekins of U6 as well, I Totally agree about the Girls Caulifla and Kale, They are Here to Stay, now and for the foreseeable future!

Indeed too, look at Who the most Promotions have Gone ~~~ Caulifla, Kale, Toppo, Jiren, Ribrianne ~~~ That is where you will find likely who will go furthest in this arc and mostly likely be in the next arc as well.

I also believe allot that Caulifla and Kale will be in the Final 10, Kale most likley cause of what she can do and it capable of, but Caulifla I am hoping for some surprises. They need to pick up their game, but them, Cabba and the U6 Namekins are all that stand now for U6 form being Gone.

But indeed the girls Caulifla and Kale have really grown on me!
Promotion doesn't mean squat.

Well, okay. It certainly matters to a degree, but I wouldn't instantly take it as a sign of who is going to stick around or be involved in the next arc. Toriyama (mostly) decides that, and he's notorious for ditching characters.

Although I'm biased, of course. Caulifla needs to go the fuck away after the tournament is over, or at least stay in her own damn universe for an arc. If she follows Goku back to earth I'm prepared to shoot someone in the face, even if it's just me. I don't care much for Ribrianne or Kale either, but I can tolerate them. Caulifla just makes me want to burn my hand on a stove.

Makes one hope that erasure is permanent.. but deep down I just know Goku will convince Zeno that bringing back everyone is the way too good.. if U7 wins of course.

At least in EoZ they're nowhere to be seen.

If DBS really is meant to lead into EoZ, I don't expect that to change.

I honestly don't mind if Goku or someone else is a catalyst for all the universes being brought back, though. Not because I agree with it, but it's a very Dragon Ball thing to do. The exceedingly dark ending to the Future Trunks arc is an exception rather than the rule.

Although having all the universes brough back kind of makes the tournament a pointless waste of time, in my view, but whatever.

I still think anime simply screwed Cauliflowa's character up, the first female SS being this pile of trash isn't very appealing, I will wait for the manga before deciding if I ever want her to return to the story again, maybe she is excellent in there, wouldn't wanna let that version of the story go to waste now..

Speaking of eoz, Goku's blue gi needs to come from somewhere and it seems awfully similar to grand priests colour scheme..
Goku may be about to surpass berrus or at least equal him, and grand Priest just stopped two gods with one finger, just like whis did to Goku and Vegeta before..
Puttibg two and two together, I think we can get a pretty good idea who Goku's next teacher is going to be...

I wonder how people will react once they decide to spice EoZ a little bit and have other characters namely Cauli,Kale and Ribriane pop up... I for one may just die from cringe.

Kale only acts like movie 10 Broly which is stupid. Broly had a good reason to become more angry in the second coming, it'd have been better if she acted like Broly from movie 8.

I have no problem with Caulifa besides her quick power ups, personality wise she's everything I wanted or expected out of a female Saiyan. I don't see what the problem is with her character. And if Kale can move beyond being fem!Broly than that will be swell.

I've started to bemore lenient with Caulifla , but then again she also hasn't appeared much so I might go back to being a little put off by her once she takes center stage again. I like the idea behind her, but not the final product.
A female saiyan gang leader? Hell yes!
A bratty, overconfident mega-genius upstart? Errr..umm....

And it's worse with Kale. The ultra-demure, shy girl with an 'onee-san' complex is so not my cup of tea! Again, I found the idea behind her character, including the Broly element, amusing, but seeing it in action was less entertaining that I had hoped.

If any of the girls are getting a power up in 114 cuz of the new warrior shit I hope it is Caulifla.

Kalten already has 2 special transformations.

Caulifla would be bad as well but so be it.

Still hope for Damom making his move

Didn't it say in his bio that he was a kamikaze guy that did damage by blowing himself up and escaping the explosion?

If that is true, it sounds promising to say the least. Though I don't think it'll be exactly adapted like that.

Damon's description also makes it looks like he has Ultra Instinct, as it specifically says he dodges all attacks. At this point I really expect Damon and/or Gamisaras to be the mortal Whis was talking about, considering it was stated as a hard fact that this mortal can beat the God stronger than Beerus, which we know from the manga is Quitela.

No, it doesn't sound like he has ultra instinct, he just sounds like his a sneaky bugger that runs and hides a lot. Also, Jiren is the mortal Whis was referring to. He even clarified that in the episode. Why do people still not think its Jiren even though its been stated multiple times by various different characters?
