Only if we get a 3 episode mini arc after this dedicated to overprotective father Vegeta. I demand more domestic Vegeta!
Yep, my biggest complaint so far.
The battle royale format was just an excuse.

Dragon Ball Super |OT9| Goodbye Tien.

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
Vegeta getting eliminated would be a good "oh shit" moment and would say to the audience that they aren't afraid to get rid of not only a prominent character but a heavy hitter on the team, I feel goku sends a stronger message in that regard but meh I guess geets is the next best thing
Gohan is fucking useless. He could have taken out that dude in like two secs when he saw him but left it to fucking Tien to finish the job?
Oh and ki blasts don't work? How about just fucking punching instead of throwing rocks wtf.
This was an infuriating episode. Why do I even bother watching this shit.

Getting close would just mean getting shot.
While I agree, I hope Roshi goes out with him next episode if only to put an end to the ending credit order theory.
Three, three arms. Dude needs to learn to use En or something.

Gohan had nothing to do with the first arm Piccolo lost.
Still blame him for it.
The biggest thing that pissed me off in the Buu arc, is Goku telling everyone Gohan is dead, after they just used a wish from Shenron to wish everyone back to life.
And no one questions that. Videl believes he's alive, but no one mentions the wish Shenron made. Like, how do you ignore that wish? Gohan never died before.
The only scenario I can come up with that fits storywise is that no one thinks Gohan is a good guy, so Shenron didn't bring him back.
I had never noticed Piccolo's face...
Pretty weak episode. Tien goes out having done very little, or showing anything new. The enemy this week initially appears to have an attack that is nigh undodgeable, only to be easily dodged by multiple characters later in the episode. Also it was one of the uglier episodes in quite some time during the latter half.

It's unexpected. Vegeta lasting that long is boring.
They can't waste that episode title. Vegeta needs to get knocked out.
It's just a big, dumb plot hole.

Well that was lame. Oh well, my Tien hopes will have to stay with the fighting game. He is just not liked among supers writers it seems.

fuckin' called it, man
Piccolo had to explain to the tag-along the plan to move, Piccolo jumped later which caused him to get shot.

Wasn't that wish just to revive the people Vegeta killed?
But yeah, the whole "Gohan is dead" thing never went anywhere. Emotional moment though.
No, the wish was for everyone to be wished back who died today, except for the really bad ones. Thanks Yamcha for that generic wish.
That's how Kibito got wished back.

Should've just had Buu in there to fall asleep mid tournament if that's all they were gonna do with Tien.

Piccolo's fatherly instincts keeps getting in the way. Let him team up with Goku to put some hair on in his chest, Goku will give Toppo some pointers on how to deal with Gohan to make it more interesting.

I dont like Vegeta characterisation in the tourney so far, too rushy-pissy, to the point of sounding like he lost all composure.
I want my daddy vegeta or cook vegeta back.

I expected it from the jobber universes, but what's up with Universe 11 still having done nothing. Jirren and Toppo sound all tough but they've gone half the way to the time limit without even taking out a single no-name.
Of course the real reason is probably the writers don't want to spoil their power before the big fight with the heroes, but in fiction I guess maybe they were just holding back for the sake of justice. Now that toppo has forsaken that, it's about time for them to get moving.
It's a weird scene, but I always thought that because they couldn't sense him they just assumed the wish didn't revive him. Either that or it simply didn't cross their minds that Yamcha's wording would revive more people than simply the ones Vegeta killed. (Goku directly says word for word that that's what he assumed they would wish for before arriving.)

He went out like a badass.
Writers made sure Tien fans knew what to expect after 89 and 90.
I felt there wasn't even a need to use multiform, since they were all running in a straight line at a stationary guy. Felt he would have done just as well with three eyes.

Did he?
He had the guy beat, got careless and ended with a draw.
That's a loss in my book.

Even vegita and goku found it hard to dodge those shots. The clones allowed him to tank 3 shots since dodging wasn't an option.

Was Tien not paying during ROF when this happened in front of his face twice?
ArtHands
Thinks buying more servers can fix a bad patch
He took down one of the two opponents that half the team is having difficult with, so yes he goes down a hero
Couldn't Goku just teleport to that guy and one shot him though ?
I believe Gohan said he couldn't sense his energy, so no IT.
You know what he could do though? Teleport to Tien.

Did Goku even see what was going on with Tien?
Wasn't Gohan speaking of the reflected beams though ?
The other guy should sill have energy.
He was literally with Tien before they decided to split and they knew there were two of them so that's kind of irrelevant.

How is that irrelevant, he wasn't with Tien when he got knocked out, why should Goku automatically know what's going on with Tien when he's busy with his own fight?
I would say before since Tien wasn't anyone's choice. Goku went to recruit Roshi and only got Tien because he was there.
And if you want to read some salt, go to Reddit and read the thread for this episode. So many want to burn the Super's writers at the stake.
My personally feeling on the episode, it was okay. It was a step-down from 104 and 105, but I wasn't expecting it to. My biggest grip, I wished we had more reaction from the other universes when U2 was lighting up the stage and seen more people dodging or trying to find the sniper. It's weird that only U7 was really doing anything and Champa and U2's God of Destruction made no comment about their down fighters.

I like the way he went out too.
They were literally TOLD there was another guy and then saw him.
Goku could have teleported then and stopped all the attacks from happening. Instead he decided to stay with Vegeta.
The red dude wouldn't let them "escape", which is precisely when instant transmission comes in handy...
That felt completely artificial and just to give Tien a scene even though Goku should have been able to handle the situation in 2 seconds.
