Would have been fun seeing Frieza and Goku interact with those weird Baba fighters from DB.

Ahh, I didn't realize Super was set between the Buu saga and the final episode of DBZ.

According to Xenoverse 2 this is off, Champa arc takes place at the end of 779.
This creates a weird issue though were the Dragon Balls were used in the Champa arc before they should have been able to. I think someone had an explanation for this, but I forgot it.
Toriyama just really hates Buu lately for some reason.

She was born between Battle of Gods and Freeza's resurrection.

I'm surprised he let Tien stay at this point since he hasn't really done anything major with him in years.

Same. All the Tien stuff has been hard to watch this arc. I'm hoping he's given an ounce of love in the tourney... but I'm not expecting it.
He's such a nonfactor it's not even funny. Instead of showing why he should be on the team they've done nothing but show him get embarrassed.

Master Roshi seems like he'll be more useful on the team than Tien.
I'm glad Roshi is getting a chance to shine, but that's wrong.

Hey he might make a villain look good, a proud tradition for non-saiyans
or at least pull a kikoho and take out some scrubs
Their dedication to humiliate Tien is quite impressive though.
I think they are doing this to end the debate of Krilin being weaker once and for all.
I see no other explanation.

Is it too much to hope for that they One Piece it, and have everyone pair off with a rival and have a badass one on one?
That's prolly the best to hope for
or some team ups

So is it possible Frieza's golden form is burning up his time back in the world of the living?
Like what happened to Goku?
Like what happened to Goku?
Probably not
Plus Frieza will be in the void area or whatever so shit doesn't matter

Being in a separate dimension/universe may negate that issue.
Depends if Tory or Toei (Toeiyama?) remembers

Maybe that issue was exclusive to SSJ3.
I don't think it's that, but the problem is that he has nowhere to go with Buu
the Buu/Satan arc in the Buu saga is some of the best stuff Toriyama has done, but now he has painted himself into a corner. At most he can put Satan in danger, and Buu will go furious and save Satan, or the other way around. but he did both in the Buu saga itself so it is nothing interesting
and it will be hard to marry Buu, and Buu doesn't seem interested in Pan as a cool uncle, Piccolo style
so Buu is mostly just there. maybe they will reuse the GT idea of Uub fusing with Buu or something along that line, but right now there's not a lot Toriyama can do with Buu
Tenshinhan...dunno, they just gave him a girl to be around with after the tournament, a dojo, etc, so Tenshinhan can go new places. Tenshinhan is clearly past his peak but he is still a character that Toriyama can get some mileage from. he is severely outclassed, but like Gohan before, this may be a driver for more progress
but before toriyama just forgot about his love interest and tenshinhan also kind of disappeared mostly
now suddenly a new girl and relevance in an arc? maybe toriyama has some new ideas for the triclops
I mean...even 17 got new clothing and a cool job, but his family was only mentioned and not shown. I think Tien is the only one in the team of the recruitment arc that saw a new supporting character introduced?

Krillin also challenged him outright to some practice sparring.

That was Goku's fault.Foreshadowing
Exactly how do you think Goku will learn a lesson about teamwork
goku learned a ton of lessons this arc and yet he still got his ass handed to him by Piccolo and Gohan
I'm betting that's a likely outcome
Because he left Tien to fend by himself while Gohan was multitasking and he never was a team player
At the same point in time, I'd argue trusting Goku was a fatal mistake so it's still tien's fault.

When?
Vegeta and 17 has been demoted

Goku pretty much confirmed Gohan's fourth strongest at best when he told him not to worry about Frieza, because him and Vegeta could handle him

Goku > Gohan > Vegeta > The rest.
How the hell was that a tank?

Since when did Gohan become stronger than Vegeta?
I know was Joking
Gohan had to ask Goku to transform while Goku did for 17 (even if it was vague how strong 17 is with both of them holding back) and Vegeta is forever destined to be 2nd place
Because he's not a puddle even though Gohan was likely holding back not to cripple him let alone kill him
Wait...YGO Arc-V? Must've been an angry Selena fan after the ending lol.
He survived it. :V
Since 1 night of training was enough for him to have Goku go SSB+KK to defeat him.

To be honest, I was thinking Gohan was stronger til that line myself.
He lived through that, hell he walked away from that.
I want to point out 17 hit Trunks like that, and Trunks didn't weather it as well as Tien

It's not like Gohan was trying to kill him or anything.
Why do people always gotta be ignoring the fact that Gohan's been training for over a year. The one night was to awaken his warrior spirit and get his Ultimate form back.
17 was a genocidal teen with attitude while Gohan was sparring and needs Tien to be the worf
