What happened to that website?

Monna was great. I'm glad they made her stronger than SSJ1. Hopefully she will get some fanarts..

Nice to know I'm not the only one who liked her. Also I think her fight with Cabba makes one of the strongest women in the ToP which is pretty cool.

Her voice was a little annoying, but she was treated very well and wasn't used for jokes. They also made her memorable, by being the character that made Cabba go SSJ2.

I hope the little blue guy Shantsa will get the same treatment. Both characters have designs that makes you think they will be treated as jokes, but they're actually very well treated.

Her gimmick was pretty cool, she was like a pufferfish, some spikes on her would be even better..
She seems to have the same idea behind her as this guy

Is next episode the first time we see Goku in SS2 & 3 in proper battle damage gi? I wanna see SSG and SSGSS in that too but those two more so when he goes full shirtless.

So Goku's go UI again soon, I wonder if UI itself as a time limit basically what we saw in #110 was the norm / drawback of the form. Or maybe Goku will be able to master UI to become his base and he's able to stack transformations on top of it:
"Ultra Instinct Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Kaioken x 20 Goku" ... :P

We've seen SS3 Goku with a damaged gi in Fusion Reborn. His left shoulder and chest were exposed.

Here's something possibly of interest from the Heroes live stream:

Vegeta hasn't gotten serious yet?
Good for him, Toppo was about to face KK goku after taking a full power Kamehameha to the face before, if Vegeta was already serious he would be done for..

Goku using ultra instinct again is nothing surprising, he picks up useful techniques as soon as he sees them... If it's not beyond the realm of possibility that is..

Watch Toppo beat Vegeta and Frieza then beat Toppo. The reaction from Vegeta will be great.

Before the tournament started we already had confirmation of Freeza and Goku being equal and the topmost players, calling Vegeta second fiddle is also a mistake, he's the third now..
That's gonna go even further down because Gohan about to bust out some new ultimate formyou know it's gonna happen

No big shock from this episode [spoiler]Cabba wasn`t doing anything and got quickly dealt with and the Namekians are staying for now. How do you sell them? Have them fight Piccolo and Gohan in good measure[/spoiler] not bad.

No the episode confirmed Vegeta is second to Goku in power level and popularity that is not going to change.

And even if Freeza is slightly stronger than Vegeta (which is debatable) he also confirmed in this episode that he is still a villain so that still makes Vegeta No 2.

Gohan may get new forms and power ups but so will Vegeta. Anyways both Gohan and Vegeta can be second to Goku there doesn’t have to be a strict hierarchy.

Frieza is not part of the permanent group so Vegeta is considered number 2.

I don't really see where Gohan is getting a new form and where it would make sense story wise especially as Goku got his new form so he can fight Jiren.

Toppo dosen't know that

Goku loses, Gohan sees ultra instinct and does it himself, gohan did say before the tournament he will show us a new ultimate form, it's gonna come eventually..
Besides, Gohan is my favorite character, that alone makes him invincible..

It might be me alone on this but how many energy blade users is super throwing at us of late?

Zamasu
Black
Khaseral
Dyspo in his intro
Liquiir
then we get Soanel

seems someone really likes vegito/salza or star wars brought in a new trend with the animators

I think Goku saying he's going to show SSJ3 to Caulifla and Kale will be a red herring. Freeza states he going to "play" with the rest of Cabba's Saiyan friends (Kale and Caulifla) because he hates Saiyan, so I think just before Goku goes SSJ3, Freeza will interfere, remonstrate Goku for wasting his stamina, especially since it was Freeza that gave him the energy, and just kick Caulifla's and Kale's arses.

I dont see freeza having an easy time against kale or caulifla at the same time

I wish they'd lay off all the different form shenanigans. If there was any time for him to bust out SSJ3, it was when he was running through them all against Jiren in 109. The fact that it got excluded would suggest it's obsolete, so the idea of him busting out against Caulifla while he's in recovery no less is too much to swallow.

Why does this always happen in episodes I would otherwise really like? 104 would've been an all-time great, but the return of God was handled so poorly it brought everything down. I was really looking forward to next episode with the Goku/Caulifla rematch, but they're going to need to explain why he can get away with showing her SSJ3 when he's supposed to be recovering.
