So are you going to ignore how Goku literally has went through all of his transformations (literally, all of them)? SS-UI. Also, Freeza had given Goku energy BEFORE he fought Kale and Caulifla - the fight that Goku agreed to for the SOLE purpose of getting his power back, which he has, otherwise a TIRED man wouldn't be able to tap into an ability that not even a GoD could do. He's not tired, and you shouldn't accept whatever the show tells you. It's bs.

Why are you the one making it seem like I'm the one that ignores stuffs when its you who ignores what characters said and what happened in universe just a few mints ago? characters transforming while not at their full power has been done even way before DBS. He's tired and you should accept what the show has shown you.

Awesome. It'll hopefully give Champa and the others in Universe 6 just cause to pay some proper attention to the Namekians for a change. I can't recall a single moment where they were directly acknowledged by either Champa or Vados throughout this tournament. Unfortunately, with this series' track record I'm going to keep some low expectations as we're liable to have a mediocre fight out of them.

Can't really say that going by that preview, but if that happens, then hopefully that means Namekuseijins are the next ones to get such an amount of screentime, character development, and luckily they give Piccolo something useful, a transformation or an exclusive and new state.

Why do Namekian's arms come off so damn easily? One kick from base gohan? They are really overusing a Namekian's regeneration technique, same goes for Piccolo. This didn't happen this frequently in Z.

We have to wait and see if that is the case, if so it might lead more credit to the Super-Piccolo-Fusion theory going around, but that is all to early to tell.

Add-In ~~~ If that is the case while I would dislike seeing KeFla go, defused or ringed-out, I certainly would not Mind Finally seeing the Namekin Race getting some Major Power-Ups from this Arc to Shine!!! :mrgreen:

Because when a character's statement contradicts what's being shown, that's a problem.
characters transforming while not at their full power has been done even way before DBS.
So, a tired man is using the ultimate technique of the gods, which they can't even attain? Yeah, no.

With Kalefla gone, I hope Toei finally decides to develop Brianne and Rozie and not have them straight up job to the Androids. Zarbuto and Ranbara are gone in episode 117 imo.

Contradicted what? you're literally ignoring what Goku went through.

Uh... yeah. his ultra instinct isnt the perfect version anyways so I dont see the problem, he's pushing his body to its utmost limits hence the "broke the shell" thing, this isnt that hard to understand.

Piccolo is the 4th Favorite Character of all time in Dragon Ball(The Top 3 went to all 3 U2 Girls but until they came along, Piccolo was #1 for most of my life!) and the Namekin Race is my Favorite of the Alien Races in DB. So to hopefully see the Namekins FINALLY having a Major Power Boost to them to become major players again would be a much needed welcome since Piccolo IMO has been missed-used since the Buu Arc(I mean he just stood around that whole arc, WTF?!).

If Kaflea does sadly go, their is certainly IMO that they have a Future in the Franchise with all this feeling like set-up for a Saiyan U6 arc with Goku and Vegeta, so IMO Toei did enough of a job showing the Girls are part of the next generation of Sayains, so I can as a growing fan of the girls be happy about that and these past few episodes building them up!

Now that is what Toei needs to do More with Brianne and Rozie too, build more deep character arcs cause we only have the basics at this point and hopefully the others of U2 have sometime to be defined even allittle as well. That is why I keep believing that U2 is not going, their arcs are still their to do and we have until March 2018 for this arc, Toei has allot of story they are giving here. So we have to see and wait if they U2 girls are getting more, but if they are surviving past 118 then I know at least My Girl Brianne will likely have an arc same as the Kale and Caulifla.

We have to see and wait, it is Toei and the Writer Vision, not ours.

If Champa was smart he should get Saonel to Potara fusion with Piccolo and this way Beerus and Champa both get a strong new member and if the fusion is the last fighter standing they will both not end up being erased.

Glad to see Gohan saving piccolo but I'm confused on why he's still in base ? If Piccolo's struggling with these namekians , shouldn't base Gohan be no match ?

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

Base Goku tanked Piccolo's charged attack in episode 90 and fought evenly with a post-88 Base Gohan. They seem to be portrayed as above Piccolo in base tbh. This episode showing that too.

If that's true, I don't like it. Gohan lost in ss2 against Piccolo. It's bullshit he got so strong so quick.

Piccolo isn't struggling like you think and he just seems to be quite interested in them.

Toei are showing off Saonel's and Pilina's moveset and this episode they showed the stretchy arm which was obvious but they showed Saonel using Piccolo's Explosive Demon Wave.

What I always liked about the Namekins from King Piccolo being seen as a Demon, to Kami being the God of the Earth for sometime, to the Dragon Balls and the Abilities of the Namekin race itself, they have always been a Very Mysterious and Mystical Race of Beings Naturally Gifted in these various gifts including Fusions.

Honestly I rather not have the U6 Namekins do it by Potara cause it goes against what makes Namekins Unique and that is their nature ablity to fuse.

So while I rather not lose 2 new Namekins from U6, I like to see them do this the Namekin way and show WHY Namekins are Powerful and skilled threw their personal Unique Abilities! ;)

Doesn't surprise me. So many characters improved very quickly this saga.
