If I were to be generous, their elimination does progress the tournament.

After having seen the episode: OH MY ZENO THIS FIGHT WAS BAD-FUCKING-ASS! THE GODDAMN ANIMATION FOR THAT LAST PART WAS BETTER THAN ANYTHING I'VE SEEN IN THIS SHOW BEFORE, HOLY SHIT! KAFLA BLASTING HER AURA AROUND LIKE A DISCO BALL OF DOOM AND GOKU USNG ULTRA INSTINCT TO TWIST HIS BODY OUT OF THE WAY OF THE LASERS WAS SO AMAZINGLY COOL AND THEY PLAYED THE MUSIC AND IT WAS SO FUCKING COOL!

Goku vs Caulifla and Kale/Kafla may have just cemented itself as one of my favorite fights in the entirety of the Dragon Ball franchise. Worth every minute dedicated to it. Kafla is best girl/ship.

Yooooooooo that Ultra Instinct Goku vs Kafla fight was fantastic. God Damn. Caulifla and Kale haters can get bent as far as I'm concerned. Helps that they have a really fun personality too, unlike Jiren.

shame they're about to die with the rest of their universe...

You can just as easily turn around and say that people use accusations of sexism to deflect legitimate criticism against them.

I'm sure when you're looking at anonymous comments on Youtube and the like you'll see a lot of sexism. But that is the really low hanging fruit.

No offense, saiga, but given the source here, this is not a compelling criticism.

Kind of an underwhelming goodbye, but it was too sudden.

Really weird that the Namekians are U6’s last line of defense. Don’t really like all the dumb theories about how he did it (Time clone, Dr. Rota plastic surgeoning a Namekian spawn into a double, etc) but I honestly hope that Hit did somehow fake his elimination. Just seems so wrong thematically for him NOT to be U6’s last chance.

Do you know what people want the most? Something somebody else has.

If 6 is the next one out then the erasures are absolutely going to be reversed, mark my words. Leaving all these lovable characters dead/erased with a "Welp, nothing we can do" would be verging on Berserk-level cynical.

If this was Berserk level cynical, Frieza would use the wish and practically destroy everyone.

And now Goku can charge the Kamehameha while moving around. I'd always wondered why nobody in this series ever thought of doing that before.

And Kefla's final attack there was actually pretty scary.

Damn, I cannot wait to play as the Saiya-girls in one of the fighting games.

U6 is screwed. But it looks like U2 is next on the chopping block. Good, maybe that irritating Ribrianne will be eliminated.

[up][up]That too. Next episode is 17 and 18 vs U2, then the one after that is a universe being erased (almost certainly either U6 or U2), then the one after that is when the U4 Bugs finally show themselves and start doing shit.

The U4 bugs really shouldn't show themselves. They should only do so if it gets to the point where one universe is likely to win with more than one guy on the field. Like even if it's just Goku vs. Jiren, if both bugs are still missing, U4 wins.

Did anyone else catch that music track that was playing while Goku beat up Kafla right after the commercial break? That sounded great.

Well there out.

They got a bit too much focus but they got a decent showing in the end.

Now let other characters receive rightful focus like Vegeta vs Toppo.

Oh yeah, almost forgot. In 119: the same episode the U4 Bugs spring into action, a member of U7 is eliminated, possibly due to Damon and Gamisaras.

The U7 member that's next to go... I can't see the Androids being eliminated far apart from each other, so the most expendable at this point sadly looks like Piccolo.

@68859: Mind putting that in spoiler tags?

Honestly, at this point IDK why we don't have a separate spoiler thread for Dragon Ball.
