So, people actually prefer the inclusion of a comic relief character that will probably amount to nothing but a gag over a character that provides an unreliable ally dynamic to the team and make things more complicated/interesting?

I don't think I can blame Super for playing it too safe anymore, it seems that that's what the fanbase want.
 
What if Puar joins instead

what if Puar takes the form of Yamcha to sub in for him without his knowledge since there's no time to grab him and it's only revealed last minute

what if this actually leads to Yamcha becoming a respected fighter because of supposed shapeshifting abilities and he constantly has to save face

Same, I don't like Frieza joining, but them potentially
faking people out yet again is just tiring lol, especially if the end result is Yamcha of all people.

I'd be more sympathetic to this argument if dragonball wasn't already chock-full of the ex-villian thing. I mean, your argument has a point, but frieza's third return is just an eyeroll at this point to me.

Yeah, I don't get it. I mean, I'd still be fine with this outcome since it's hilarious, but Frieza is a new dynamic that could go in some interesting places.
 
Unrelliable ally/villain-hero panic team up is not a new thing its half the fucking history of Dragon Ball.

It could be used to paint U7 in a negative light which makes a whole lot of sense when the main rival team is a group of fucking super heroes. There's a lot of interesting places they could go here.
 
Frieza
fucking over the group
is actually one of the more interesting things they could do with him now that I think about it

This is the dude who actually deserves to be in the U7 team. Taking him to a random future with body doubles was always a bad move.


People tried to defend this saying that this would give Kid Trunks room for character development but alot of these people are the same ones glad that Kid Trunks is excluded in the tournament.

The most interesting thing that will most likely come out of this is that Freeza will cause some schism by bringing up Beerus ordering to destroy the Saiyains planet, but he doesn't need to be on the team for that.

The ideal scenario is that Freeza betrays them (in character) Buu wakes up, rejoins the team, Yamcha gets JLU Blue Beetle'd and saves the earth, but no one was there to see it (which is what he wants most likely) so no one believes him.

I will do note that of all the villains teaming up with the heroes Freeza was 100% likely to not redeem, which would have been different.
 
I love the rules for the tournament. It's not so much about being people as it is not being knocked out and knocking people out. It isn't even about pure strength. Surely we will see weaker characters knock out stronger characters through strategy. I think this makes for a more even playing field. it kind of reminds me of the appeal of a dodge ball game. Once you are hit, you are out! And that adds so much excitement to be on guard

Thing is, even if the new leaks are true, Freeza is returning anyway.

The difference is, that if the leaks are true, he will return as an enemy of Goku. Again. For the third time. If they weren't, at least he's returning with a new, more interesting dynamic that can lead to more interesting things than the Z-warriors punching him to death for the third time.

That's why I don't get why people want this leaks to be true.
 
I didn't even read the spoilers but I can already imagine what it is by the reactions alone, this shit will turn GT tier level of shit if true, it literally can't sink any lower. Please don't be true whatever I'm imaginig.
 
I had hope the Frieza rumors weren't true before the episodes officially leaked, I can't be broken again refusing to believe these rumors.

People in general don't care or sick for another return for Frieza regardless of what it would bring or not and would rather other have other unused characters like Yamcha to be useful than for Frieza to return again especially when he had a movie and characters like Yamcha and Gotenks haven't done anything.

Not talking about whether it will be interesting or not but that's usually the reason.

Yea but Yamcha sucks who cares about him?

I'm more interested if Buu comes back

This. I mean at least Buu had the ability to quickly learn attacks so it would've been cool to see that in the tournament.

Yamcha is a joke that's been beat to death since the inception of dragon ball. Let him rest. Unfortunately Gotenks (Trunk + Goten) are too outclassed/not even worth fleshing out as characters considering all the new ones we got. That and I wasn't a fan of the fusion gimmick.
 
You know what would be hilarious
(disappointing)
? If it turns out the Pride Troopers and all the other goody-two-shoes are secretly evil/hypocrites/cheaters/etc. and it turns out U7 really were the heroes all along.

Can't deal with another Frost fake out ):

eh i don't really it would it's more interesting for them to fight heroes fighting for their survival than another bunch of bad guys except for Zamas of course

I wouldn't mind if they due to desperation U11 brought villain on their team under the conditions for redemption or a former one
 
Nah, he *did* kill his Android 17 and 18. Cell killed him (possibly Bulma as well? Don't think we know for sure) and stole his time machine, but the result for everyone else is the same - no Android 17, no Android 18 and no Cell left in that timeline.

are we still running with this theory? after goku black I think that the future timeline is only one parallel universe...that got destroyed by Zeno but also had a second copy made by Beerus, so basically that Future Bulma is still alive...probably
 
Kid Krillin was kind of a jerk.

Still was on the good side of the moral compass as opposed to everyone else though.


Edit: Was also gonna bring up Roshi, but as of the last episode he's trying to get over that. That said, we don't really know much about young Roshi so he probably killed puppies who knows.
 
Putting Yamcha on the team only to treat him like a joke would be such a fucking waste over the dynamic that Frieza can add. They need to straight up make Yamcha a hero if they're gonna bring him back for this.
 
Saw the leaks. Where do they it's
Yamcha? They say Frieza defects,
and someone is there waiting for them, but how do we know it's Yamcha?

I also wonder what
U11's deal is.


+1

Because this morning his voice actor said he just got done recording a bunch of lines and will be doing more tomorrow.
 
what's gonna happen is that tournament is p standard fare, lasts 2 chapters due to it being 40 minutes long, goku wins, wishes to save all the universes, all the universes go aw shucks, goku, you the best

MEANWHILE ON EARTH: goten, trunks and yamcha go through a 40 episode ultra epic saga of fighting
poachers

And I'm sure he'll have a lot of lines helping Goten and Trunks fight the poachers.

And then Goku's like, I just brought you all back so we could fight again.

If Goku does use the Super Dragon Ball's to bring everyone back, the only way I'd be okay with it is if Goku does something stupid and wishes back all universes, the original 18.

turns out there was a good reason those six universes got destroyed
 
Everyone seem shook about Freeza being on the team, now you're shook about him not being on the team?
I want him on the team, personally, but would be fine if Yamcha got some credit. Wasn't there a Tweet implying he & Chiaotzu get a side-story during the tournament?

TFS Episode of Bardock dub is canon now, sorry.

I mean, I never saw any of the specials or movies, so TFS canon was basically my movie canon, anyway, so...

I know the Proto-Saiyans were probably named after veggies like every other Saiyan, but part of me wants to believe the theme naming of 90s rappers was canon.

Somewhere, in some future, Bulma and Mai are leading the resistance against Goku Black on their own :(

... Did they ever say what happened with Buu in the Future Trunks timeline?
