I was thinking the same thing

Seems a bit rapey. Was weird. 89 felt like anew old school Dragon Ball episode.

yep...

Roshi was always a pervert but at least most of the woman beat the shite out of him the second he did anything perverted. The girl in this episode just kind of let it happen which made it pretty damn awkward.

Not really a fan of Gohan and Piccolo getting no screen time. Goku may be Gohan's father, but Piccolo is his daddy. (although it also kind of odd that Piccolo is only a few years older than Gohan...)

What a Shitty episode... Aside from the creepy rapey stuff, it seriously felt like an episode from 1987...not good.

I just don't see how Tien, Roshi, and Krillan will do anything in this tournament.

It definitely lacked compared to 88.

I wonder how Funimation will edit the Roshi scenes for English dub. If they take that stuff out, the episode will only be 15 minutes.

Some major spoilers came out a few days ago. If you don't want to know, don't continue reading.

Buu won't be participating in the tournament. Instead, Goku will visit Frieza about taking the 10th spot on the Universe 7 team. I was really looking forward to seeing how Buu's training paid off.

(SPOILERS)

Saw this yesterday...Can't believe they're doing this. Well trained Buu would've been badass to see.

I'm also kind of tired of Frieza. I get it, he's the OG bad guy, but Cell is a better villain to me.

I also wonder if having essentially Super Buu in the tournament, he would be basically unstoppable. He can heal from virtually any attack and his power is virtually unlimited. Doesn't make for very good TV.

How? Cell just wanted to test his power limits. Freezy Pop wanted to destroy an entire race because he hated them. As far as villainy goes Dr Gero is better than Cell.

Frieza did nearly destroy an entire race...2 in fact except for 1 namekian and 1.5 saiyans. And who knows how many he did manage to wipe out offscreen.


Cell just wanted to be perfect. He wanted it so much he went back in time just to have a chance to achieve it and devoured who knows how many humans to get stronger than the androids.

Once he achieved perfection, he just wanted to prove to the world that he was the strongest. He may have eventually wanted to take over or destroy the universe, but we never find out.

He could have easily wiped everyone out (as could have Frieza instead of toying with Goku for so long). He toyed with Gohan for so long before he went SSJ2.

Frieza wanted to conquer the universe...or whatever quadrant King Kai owns...I don't know how Frieza, Cooler, and King Cold were dividing that shite.

I think Frieza was a better villain, but Cell was a better fight. His cockiness, the fact that he knew everyones moves and personalities, regeneration ability, etc.

I still think the ending of the Cell saga would have been the perfect way to end the series...

So Piccolo is back to having an attack that takes five minutes to charge...hope that one works out for him in the tournament.

I was pretty disappointed to see full-power Gohan even getting touched by SSJ Goku. Considering Goku's full power should be AT LEAST 100x his SSJ form.

At least a lot of it was him just outsmarting Gohan with clever distraction and instant transmission. Goku is still a genius in battle.

I just don't understand what Vegeta has been doing these past few days. I understand Bra was just born, but surely he would find time to train as well, right?

Vegeta is going to train in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.

Wjy not just throw Buu into the Hyperbolic Time Chamber until he wakes up?

Boom, problem solved. No wishing a dictator, who has blown up the world, back to life.

Besides, wasn't a point in F that Goku needed to stop dropping his guard so much? He gives Frieza another chance and the guy blows up the earth. So Whis has to reverse time and Goku kills Frieza. Did Goku forget all that?

If Frieza is only going to be brought back for 24 hours, why would he bother to help? It works out better for him to sabotage the tournament and cause all the remaining Saiyans to die along with Earth and the entire universe.

Cell is a much better pick. He is vain enough to watch to showcase his perfection to the rest of the universes. His Saiyan blood would want the challenge of facing tougher opponents. Plus you promise him a rematch with Gohan if they win.

Valid points, and I agree. I wish Buu was participating in this tournament.

Episode 90 was pretty incredible... It made no sense, but it was badass nonetheless.

It seems Toriyama finally figured out how huge of a fan favorite Goyan is...and will be featuring him heavily in the Tournament. Maybe he will be the one to reach the non-transforming, god of destruction type level we have all been speculating about. After all, his abilities are virtually limitless, right?

By the way, I thought that final fight between father and son was one of the best fight sequences in the history of the Dragonball. It just felt so epic, especially that final collision.

Best episode of Dragon Ball Super to date imo.

That final collision with the epic music was just incredible. Extremely well done, they did Gohan justice. FINALLY.
