As i said though, the simple act of destroying all this life simply because of a tournament, that seems evil to me. But dragonball probably doesn't really care to develop that idea either. It's just a plot device. I don't see dragonball going all out with the exploration of "how would godlike creatures act, look at things, etc". People suggesting that there is some sort of angel conspiracy going on, can you point towards all the foreshadowing for that? What is this idea based on. | ||

I don't see dragonball going all out with the exploration of "how would godlike creatures act, look at things, etc". Yeah, and this is part of why I can't help but remain skeptical. They haven't done a very good job at explaining why that makes even a shred of sense. The angels don't seem to see it as illogical. This idea of "yeah, other universes were erased for being weak, and now some others will too" doesn't seem crazy. There must be more to it than that. Why is it bad for a universe to be weak? Why is there nothing wrong with erasing a universe? If there is creation and destruction, does Zenoh have a creation counterpart? This whole thing is very incomplete right now and I can't help but think that is intentional. | ||

Seems that it is as simple as "you can't use the flying technique" rather than not being able to do anything that shifts your position. Those robots are free to use their hook, for example. Edit: But wait, time works differently, right? So Hit's technique doesn't work. I kind of wonder if that also invalidates instant transmission. Spacetime...etc...fuck if I know. | ||

The Grand Priest has had multiple evil looking faces, when universe 9 was erased the angel was openly laughing about it (even though it was a shitty universe and he seemed to hate it too). I think if another Universe gets erased and the angel is smiling I will find it more and more likely something else is going on. Loving the tournament so far though and looks like it's going to last at least 10 episodes easily (probably longer!) | ||

Maybe alternate it with U7 action so people don't get bored. Guessing you mean U6 action? I also would like to see that and U11 in action. | ||

Remaining ones might be U7, U6 and Pride, maybe one other thrown in there. | ||

I'm hoping to see other universes eliminate fighters even if it only takes 1-2 minutes per fighter to build more hype around some of the other non-U7 warriors. | ||

I want Toppo to get absolutely fucking body slammed and disgraced by Frieza. But I do also just get the feeling Jiren will destroy Hit. Which is stupid because it shouldn't be a surprise that Hit ALSO trained etc. We shouldn't expect Hit to be only as strong as he was when he lost to Goku. He lost for the first time ever in his 1000 years of life. | ||

I too hope that Jiren faces off against Hit. I'd rather Hit doesn't get destroyed though, a close competition early on where Jiren dominates towards the end. Also, Freiza trashing Toppo would be awesome! It won't happen though, I think. | ||
