Even though I really want it to happen, I don't think Vegeta will get (offensive) UI this arc. More so than ever, they're focusing on Goku. I hope he'll get it at some point though. Unlocking offensive UI through rage seems perfectly in line with his character.

A good time to link this thing on kill counts, in case someone missed it.

Well, yamcha did force that saibaman to kill himself. He did beat him. But casually walking away was a very big mistake.

Also, from where do people draw that 'Krillin is the strongest human' phrase? I mean, Tien outclassed him since he appeared, he was actually able to at least stop cell from some time. And managed to!avoid not being killed by Buu genocide strike, unlike krillin that died for a general chocolate maker. His attack actually caused a reaction in buu while cell didn't even bother with krillin rage punching him.

And Tien actually trained with Kaio. Which means he trained in consta 10x gravity for at least a year. And he might know kaioken, after all during frieza arc the dead know of KK existence and kaio mentions Goku usage of it without showing a aura! I would be surprised if the likes of Tien and Piccollo were actually using KK, after all Piccollo was able to fight frieza transformation after some months of training and a fusion, when before those months even nappa was stronger than him.

Tien is a "not quite human" but yeah he's probably stronger than Krillin.

Well...I found this article that may explain what's up with Vegeta...

http://comicbook.com/anime/2017/03/16/dragon-ball-creator-least-favorite-character-vegeta/

Apparently Toriyama said he doesn't like him but he was useful to have around. The article is recent but it mentions the quote is from "years ago" so maybe he has changed his mind since then

Just 6 more hours til we see Vegeta kick Jiren in the fucking stomach and show how much stronger than Goku he was going into the tourney without op UI.

Good episode, and the next episode preview looks awesome. Looks like eight more episodes I guess.

Honestly, it seems like he enjoys trying to show everybody that he is so strong that it’s pointless to fight. And unlike Hit who clearly saw he was beat, the Saiyans don’t stop trying.

Wow this one was great, so cool to see Vegetta shine even if just briefly. I'm not buying the rumours he will acheive UI or thee even more ridiculous ones that he will reach SSBUI, I think that's just fans wishful thinking based on artistic liberty of whoever did the new ending, still I want that even if he loses he has a great showing, and it seems he will have.

Yeah the episode was awesome. The preview made me more hyped for next episode than this one. Vegeta getting a new form is badass.

If you want to see a full image of it watch the new end credits and it shows him right next to UI Goku. I imagine Goku will still be stronger/better in UI, but would be awesome if they were equal.

I bet Freeza is playing with the purple rabbit and is letting himself get knocked around because he probably isn't taking that much damage from him and will own him when the times comes for U7's counter attack.

You know what would be an awesome way to end this? Goku goes limit breaker UI, still can't beat Jiren, so he distracts him, then grabs him and instant transmissions both of them onto the bench.

My impression is that UI is better for brawling whereas Vegeta's new form would crush UI in a beam struggle.SSB2(?) Final Flash would push back a UI Kamehemeha.

One of my favourite episode, Vegeta getting jobbed was expected but the fight was great and it seems like he isn't done yet.
Also the animation and the direction were amazing and I especially loved that they showed bits of every fights and probably for the first time it actually looked like a real team tournament with every fight being meaningful. It really make me which they did a team tournament instead of doing a battle royal, it way easier to make it feel like team matters.

Also I wonder if Jiren lack of technique is gonna be a brought up latter, at first Hit saw through his counter pretty quick and now Vegeta to, probably not but still it would be cool.

Edit: also, and I am 90% sure I am thinking to much about this, I wonder after this episode and the one priors if Jiren thing isn't that he literally is always stronger then the one he fight, and by that I mean his power is proportionnal to his adversery. Vegeta states that he his weaker then when he was fighting UI Goku, and the U11 gods keep repeating that Jiren just can't be beaten, so maybe they mean he literally can never be overpower, he just adjust to the other power.
It would also give me an explecation of him getting out of Hit time prison by adapting to the time skip power, and not just "his power his so great it transcend time" which is one of the stupidest line in all of DB.
