Dragon Ball Super |OT8| There is no justice or evil, only survival or erasure.

Best tournament episode easily, and I said that about last episode. The Goku part was weird though, but still a cool save by 17.

I thought Goku was on top of things this time tbh. Seemed unnecessary for 17 to step in like that.

I guess he would have done something, like just power up.

Ok, is it time to watch the simulcast yet? I just came back home from Pokémon raiding (which sucked ass) and I need something to cheer me up.
 
LOL, did they re-used this again?

Just like they kept using that same group shot with Krillin.

Solid episode, not the triumphant return of Gohan I wanted, but it was enough, the universe 10 guy was interesting enough to throw Gohan off for a bit, but not strong enough to push him anywhere near his limit. So hopefully there's more to come with Gohan in that regard.

They definitely got me with the locket, but the actual MOMENT was a bit more drawn out like the first one.
 
Man it was honestly kind of depressing that the fighter Gohan eliminated had a wife and daughter same as him.


Hit looks like he's going to be pretty much wiped out next episode energy wise. I feel he won't last much longer even if he makes it through next week.

Nooo, Gowasu. And Elephant God. I really liked them. So sad to see them go, especially after Gowasu saw a light of hope.

Screw the Zenos and GP. They really are enjoying erasing people.

fuckin' called it, man
Piccolo doing that move would have been pretty cool if I wasn't completely thrown off by how shitty Piccolo looked in the middle of it.

Episode was alright. I hyped myself up too much when I saw Gohan was in the title for this episode. Disappointed they wasted half the episode on Goku and the machine, but at least Gohan and Piccolo redeemed the last half.

Good episode overall but like a third of it was focused on Android 17 and Goku's pretty irrelevant fights. I just cant buy anything Goku is doing at the moment.

Gohan's stuff was pretty good but I felt like there was no build up in the fights. It's kinda the problem with characters that only exist for those 5-10 mins. I also was kinda expecting Gohan to feel conflicted about ringing out someone but he just got his shit done. Kinda glad about that actually.

Next episode will probably be cool but it's just guaranteed SSG won't be explained past the fact that Goku is faster in that form. Because that definitely wouldn't have helped against Hit in their first fight or in the black arc...
 
Glad you're enjoying it.
And you survived the worse of Super, the pacifier arc.

I liked those episodes too lol. Vegeta's reactions are priceless. Vegeta's character has developed so well, especially his interactions with Bulma.
Also there was one scene where kid Trunks says that if he ever sees Freeza again he will cut him in half. Everyone's reaction to that is so good.
There are many such small moments that make the anime so enjoyable.

And where to watch the English dub? I am watching on VRV which has funanimation now episodes. I like Japanese voices but would like to check out dub too.
 
I don't know if i'm just in a bad mood today... but this episode was lame ugh

The ending was actually nice to see. Was hoping we'd have a moment like that with Gohan, would've been a missed opportunity otherwise.

Pretty great episode, especially the 2nd half. ;)

Loved the call back to the Hellzone Grenade with A17, and then it's glorious return by Piccolo! And they showed Gohan fighting with his head, playing up that role of tactician. I also felt that the music was particularly well done. Definitely looking forward to see how SSG is handled next episode.
Please don't be moronic...

Gotta feel bad for U10 though, that angel seemed beaten up over it.

I'm trying, but Super's music just does not stand out to me here.

Gohan really didn't get as much focus as you would think from the title, huh? However, it didn't really matter as much to me because the rest of the episode was so solid (and Piccolo got some time in the spotlight).

That Yardrat is gonna be DROWNING when this tournament is over. Dude is smoother than Ralph Tresvant.

He would be if his universe wasn't going to get eliminated.

:D

Edit: I'm actually pretty bummed about U10. They all seemed to be pretty likable at the very least.
