That Bleach picture makes me forget how shitty it is Tao Pai Pai was forgotten so easily. I know he's probably dead because of the wish in the Boo arc "bring everyone back except for the evil people" or whatever, but they could've written a storyline to suggest Tao Pai Pai reformed his ways after he was defeated by Tenshinhan and maybe we could've gotten him instead of Roshi for the Tournament of Power.

I thought OTs weren't banished to Community until after the season/show finishes airing?

They could bring him back from Hell, I guess...
eh, he turned into a good guy since dragon ball. then he sees goku again and the rage overtakes him, not only giving him SSB-level powers, but makes him evil again.
eh, the writers of super didn't read that interview
come on guys these are soft balls

Shenron/Dende/King Enma probably don't consider these people truly evil or irredeemable.
Hmm I didn't really choose the best example of Shaky-cam footage as it was a powerup scene where the Shaky-cam *could* work (still find it exaggerated), but they apply it to every combat related scene..
No Shaky-cam=best.
Believe.
This is why we were banished to Community.
17 and Goku are the evil ones. The poachers and robbers were only trying to do good and save 17 and Goku from their evil ways.
17 got revived twice.
The confusing thing about 17. He died on King Kai's planet, so when he was brought back to life he should have been wished back where King Kai's planet was.
I mean present 17 was just a thug and besides geto who iirc kidnapped them and tried to turn them into slaves for destruction and revenge, him and 18 never killed anyone iirc and only fought z fighters because they attacked right?
Ah yeah, he was still inside Cell's body when he went kaput.
Because Toriyama forgot I guess
I mean, Vegeta was revived as a part of that wish, and he wasn't exactly the nicest guy before that point.
I guess the dragon has a high bar for evil

I always thought the rules of the Dragon Balls were arbitrary principles that Kami/Dende/Shenron chose and applied out their own sense of fairness and morality, rather than being strict, universal, hard-science laws.

I wonder if they will ever give some exposition to that 17 power up.
I imagined he'd have a shonen style internal monologue with flashback when we get to his serious fight of the arc, but super is so lax... I can see them not even bothering with that.

This must be where Universes go when Zeno erases them.

Wat lol all I'm saying is if he does get a new tranformation, it will be different than one Goku gets.
exactly. which is why I'd absolutely be able to buy that Tao Pai Pai is somewhere on earth right now, alive, just chillin

After King Piccolo, the bar was set to anyone who tries to kill him, evil, anyone who has no intentions of hurting him, redeemable.
That's fine, Goku creates his own villains, just give Goku time.
The time nest from Xenoverse is in 17's park. He can go anywhere in history to fight strong villains.
Genki Dama against Buu. There's a history where 17 killed Buu while he was still Buuhan.

At this rate you are going to make them close the thread.
Math:
Tournament of Power lasts 48 minutes
11 minutes have passed
Started episode 97 (48 min), currently episode 103 (37 min)
If they keep this pace and go all the way to time, the tournament should last approximately 26 episodes total, which means we have 20 episodes to go.
26 episodes seems like a solid length for the tournament tbh. When a couple more universes get eliminated and there's 8 or so big players left standing, we'll basically be looking at a tenkaichi budokai arc from dragon ball, and I expect those characters to get a lot of focus, which means longer fighters. Hopefully multiple episode fights, even.
In other words, the pace of this arc and the passage of time surprisingly makes sense so far.
At least he's posting Dragon Ball related art. As long as we don't start posting Shrek, Minions or Shadow the Hedgehog related fan art, I think we should be fine...

That's what I do anyway so it makes no difference to me.
Still don't know how the process works in regards to when/why something will be moved to community.
Yeah, my guess is when there's 10 minutes left, we'll have 8 fighters, 2 from each universe.
I think 2, 11, 6, and 7 all make it to the end with one fighter left.
We're just waiting for 4 and 3 to fall out, and I feel like in 5 episodes it'll be universe 4, and then universe 3 will fall 5 episodes after that. I feel universe 4 will fall mainly by U7, and U3 will fall mainly by U6. Though I still want a Android 16 moment with Gohan fighting U3.
2 and 11 will fighting Universe 6 and 7 members every now and then, slowly eliminating them.

Yes please.
Agreed. Final 4 will probably be Goku, Hit, Jiren and Brianne. What will be interesting is who gets the eliminations on who, specifically the more fleshed out universe 6 and 7 characters.

I don't think so. They had the chance and decided to go with the superior fusion instead.
I'm worried about Hit this coming episode. I feel like someone has to fall besides U11 fighters.
After everyone but her is eliminated, I could see her having an ability where she drains the energy of her universe fighters to get stronger. Zeno allows it because it's her ability.
They did call the magical girl witches in the 102 preview.
I feel that Dyspo will knock out Hit, the U11 fighter who has the multi lasso jutsu will get knocked out, Dyspo will either be saved by Jiren, or Dyspo will be crying and running back to JIren.
It looked like Dypso is in trouble but it's not the first time the previews were misleading

It's U6 and U7 vs U11 again, you know Dypso and the other guy are losing at the end :/
I feel like the writers need to get rid of Hit soon though. He's OP in a tournament like this, since he can save any of his fighters
unless they're Botamo
The only other fighter from U6 who needs to go might be that doctor, but we still don't know if he's a healer or not.
I could see U11 losing, but even if Dyspo and the magical string guy gets knocked out, I think Hit is going with.
Also because Toei wants to forever fuck over the people who wanted a Jiren vs. Hit fight, Goku vs. Hit rematch, or Vegeta vs. Hit rematch.
