Actually, could someone find me that post about that God Scale thing someone posted involving where the GT characters could fit in relation to the BoG characters? I'm really interested in seeing that again, and my comment after, but I have no idea where to start looking in this thread.

Man can the art on Super take a nosedive.

I mean, for me that's one of the most impressive things about Super's animation.

The fact that no matter how bad it is, it can always manage to get worse somehow.

It's. Inspiring, in a way. When you think you've hit rock bottom, Toei tosses you a shovel.

I wouldn't limit that to the animation.

Is that better for you?

Considering how Toei's CG anime (Kado, The new Mazinger Z Movie) are some of the best looking in the business, that could be a reason for the downgrade of of their 2D projects (Except Precure, just because).

[up][up][up] Huh if so I guess they reused the design.

I recall watching a video aptly titled "Toei Animation Sucks". How true that video is in most cases. Thank God they don't branch out to animate other shit.

I'm guessing Bug guy from the opening is one of Universe 4's invisible fighters.

Know what? I'm pleasantly surprised by U9's designs. Was expecting garbage from a terrible universe, instead I got gritty-looking fighters that fits their theme well, I suppose.

The introduction of each team was rather cool. I wonder who the two mistery members of U6 are.

And the animation in this episode wasn't all that bad, so i don't know what unoun was referring to.

[up]X3 Most of the universes made Universe 7 look vanilla by comparison (appearance-wise). In fact, if the manga is able to do so, I would really like some Day in the Limelight chapters within the recruitment section.

[up]x2 Agreed, and it's lookin' as satisfyingly congested as I hoped.

     Additional rambles: 
  • I kind of like how Goku made a slight nod towards Condescending Caulifla being his counterpart.
    • And, of course, Roshi's self-control is being tested with the new Saiyans. Wouldn't be surprised if it leads to Episode 100's alleged plot point.
  • Champa being a cheeky guy behind Hit's brief reintroduction. [lol]
  • Universe 4's Damon and Fem-Ganos aren't accounted for. Cloaking abilities?
  • Gods of [Con]struction: Can they fix it? Haphazardly, sure.
  • For some reason, after witnessing Universe 2's Darkstalkers-equse characters , I'm wondering if the other teams have any Enemy Mines of their own?
  • Poor Yamcha, scrubbed again.
  • Bulma's "Don't Erase Our Kids" face to Vegeta.
  • Whis' blase attitude is something to behold. Some may point out that the U7 and U6 groups aren't as concerned as they should, but Whis is far worse in this regard. [lol]

[up] Part of it is because the other Universes picked from several planets, while U7 just picked from Goku's friends + Freeza.

Then again, U11 just picked from the Pride Troopers and they still standout.

@Myssa Rei

Maybe that's why Gin stayed out of the fight?

[up] Speaking of members from different planets, Whis mentions that all the combatants' weight on the field adjusts to their respective birth planet's very own gravity (going by the Daisuki subs). So, generally speaking, would Goku, Vegeta, and Piccolo gain some form of advantage from this?

Also, I wouldn't be surprised if the next Xenoverse game capitalizes more on the Tournament of Power arc as its plot (or, at least, a variation of it). The plethora of fighters (and worlds) would be pretty hefty for a playable roster and some NPCs. Unless, of course, we relive the notable Z sagas again.

I'm surprised that Xenoverse 2 didn't have more GT content. The original Xenoverse had a serviceable amount, even if it was DLC. This game only really has some parallel quests.

I am looking forward to the next DLC pack though, very much so. the new moves look awesome and (from what i'm aware) we're finally getting a saiyan tail accessory, which i am totally putting on my saiyan character.

The first Xenoverse added GT because that was one area fans really wanted that they were missing on. That's true of Super in Xenoverse 2. That had more of the basic GT stuff covered, but Super is way more topical and they were much shorter on Super content.

It's a pity Super had to go through the BOG/ROF arcs first, because that would have made more available right now. Though given how we're still only three (original) arcs in, maybe we wouldn't be in a very different position.

Aiyah, that was a fun episode!

  • Seeing Liqour, Arak and Iwen fight was fun, and seeing them being stuck with fixing the arena was funny.
  • Something's fishy about Gin, no pun intended.
  • U2: Magical Girls, also a fucking Yardrat!?
  • U3: Mechs and Androids.
  • U4: Dragon Quest, Smugpup confirmed, Damon is invisible?
  • U6: Seems ready as ever, with two silhouettes.
  • U7: Frieza wants in on some Frost, Roshi is actually keeping steady.
  • U9: Furries and Demons.
  • U10: MUCHA MACHO, also a fairy and a parrot.
  • U11: GO GO PRIDE TROOPER TOKUSENTAI!!
  • Goku meets Jiren, and he teleports behind him like it was nothing personal.
  • THE TOURNAMENT STARTS NEXT WEEK!

Also, a 5.2 earthquake is apparently gonna happen in Japan soon, so I hope nothing bad happens this coming week...
