though its kind of hypocritical of 18 to join in on reaming krillen out for letting his guard down when she was almost eliminated early for the exact same mistake

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SlqslJPzFE




of course that scene only existed to give krillen a chance to play hero

Yeah. ToP has been pretty good about not just being Goku and Vegeta. 17 & 18 in particular have gotten good screentime both eliminating multiple fighters. Krillin even got a couple wins in and roshi seems to be getting a focus episode(and he had a couple moments already with some team attacks)

Universe 6 has gotten a lot of time too(they are doing great too. Not a single Fighter eliminated yet.)

Gohan has been back in action this arc too though he hasn't had much in the tournament proper yet(that is changing though. Next episode IIRC he is Eliminating at least two fighters in his Mystic/Ultimate form

Tien and Piccolo are the only ones who haven't gotten/confirmed to get much yet.

How are all these characters relevant again? With the power scaling they shouldn't be close.

Haven't seen anything past Goku Black.

db super has no basic powerscaling and ignores dbz's

think back to friezas return when krillen is worried about friezas foot soldiers when he should be way more powerful then them given he fought against cell jr.
or master roshi in general given he was scared of raditz and was barely more powerful then goku when he was a child.

its actually pretty interesting
out of the 12 universes the 4 strongest dont have to compete

the 8 universes competing have to fight in a large battlefield for 48 minutes
when the time runs out the universe with the most fighters remaining wins while all the losing universes will be erased from existence.

the tournament has rules

- you cant use ki to fly (some universes got fighters with wings to get around this limitation)
- you cant kill an opponent or you are disqualified
- getting knocked out of the ring means that fighter is out and is moved to the spectator seats
- if all 10 fighters are eliminated that universe is immediately erased.


so 80 fighters are fighting all at once in a battle royale.
even the gods of that universe will be erased only the angels will be exempt like whis.

lots of fans blamed goku for this and said all the universes being erased is his fault
so the story arc had to find a way to make it not be goku's fault
so the weakest universes were always going to be erased and goku's idea just gave them a fighting chance for one to survive where none were going to

Im interested

its canon
DBGT is non canon
DBsuper is canon

the end of DBZ takes place 5 years after goku beat buu when pan is 5 going to her first martial arts tournament
DBsuper takes place in the 5 years before that

well since the tournament has rules and you just need to ring someone out power scaling is less of an issue

so weaker characters can double team stronger ones to force a ring out which master roshi and tien have already done.

when a character named Cocotte created a forcefield around herself so no attacks could damage her 18 just picked her up in the force field and tossed her out if the ring

Correct me if I'm wrong but I didn't think characters like Whis belonged to any specific universe.

I mean, possibly. But the various gods are being erased too and it is just the various angels that aren't for "some reason"

Whis and Vados, and possibly the other Angels, are literally the Grand Priest's children.

I don't think the angels are as closely connected to their respective universes like the gods are.

Still, his green barrier thing is what makes him op.

I admit 17 is the golden boy recently...Has had quite a few awesome moments, this last episode in particular. The way he bucked DB tropes and attacked characters during power up or how he thrashed those two so easily. Makes me assume he will become a regular character even beyond this arc.

Fun fact about 17 and 18
He has a limit to his power. He can only get so strong before he is unable to get more powerful

18 doesn't have this limitation so if she trained she could surpass him but she has no interest in fighting unless money is involved
