He most certainly knows how to make grown men cry like a bitch.

From what I remember of Nail and Vegeta? Freeza makes Cold-Blooded Torture an essential part of his fighting style.

Frieza just straight up ripped Nail's arm off.

Frost's smoke bomb vanish was the best part of this episode. Also the shoe thing which does feel like Toriyama but could also be Toei making a callback to Krillin's previous tactics.

Goku looks so happy in the preview, like he's found the long-lost daughter he never knew he had.

And to think Trunks said girls can't be training partners. tongue

Goku just found the perfect student he can finally compile all his vast decades of fighting experience.

[lol] I smell a spin-off. The tournament ends with Goku abducting Califa and them flying off into space. Dragonball GC.

Killing is against the rules, but deliberately inflicting pain on a helpless fighter is not. Apparently. As for throwing a helpless fighter off, that's what they're supposed to do to a fighter that can't fight anymore. Ring-out is the only method of elimination from this tournament. KO's don't count.

That really isn't all that different from real life.

Now if only we can get that in "canon" where Vegeta pwns Freiza or any character that ins't Goku gets to pwn the main villain but that is never gonna happen.....ever.

You meant the Vegeta thing. [down] Well, he's a fun character that people hate seeing beaten up all of the time.

If you liked Piccolo and Piccolo only lost every single fight after 17... oh wait.

If you liked Goku and Goku lost every single fight he was in, you'd want to see him take out a villain just once.

I don't understand the "let someone else do it" as if it's somehow "unfair" that they don't "take turns" or as if other characters actually owed something.

No, getting beaten up all the time is the entire point of Vegeta.

@LSBK: My theory is that people are used to American teams like the X-man or the Justice League which do not have a single main character, so the characters actually do "take turns" taking down each storyline's main villain, or something to that effect. If you're used to that, watching Shonen anime where each arc villain gets beaten by the exact same character can get pretty tiresome.

Again, it's just a theory and I'm mostly talking about myself, really.
