Oh shit, Takahaahi is working on Vegeta's episode. It's gonna be the best looking jobbing ever.

So after all this time hinting at U4 trump card, after all of Quitela acting so confident in his strategy, they take out two guys and lose? This is hilarious. [lol]

He did it to spite Beerus.

Guess Goku and Gohan are gonna be the survivors after all.

@Gohan and Piccolo: I didn't mind it, but they didn't really do much with it to justify it.

So if Vegeta is going to try his hand at Jiren I'm hoping this means we'll finally get that Toppo/Freeza fight.

That would be a really fun match. Hero of Justice vs Emperor of Evil.

Plus, Frieza is exactly the kind of person Toppo would want to take out.

He's everything Toppo thinks Goku to be, perhaps even worse.

Freeza's first question upon being recruited for the tournament was "Can I kill everyone?"

His entire contribution has been physically and emotionally torturing people because it’s more fun that way.

Granted, Frost isn’t exactly a hard person to break emotionally.

Though now he's basically stopped doing anything in favor of observing Goku. I wonder if he's trying to figure out Ultra Instict as well.

He's definitely playing the long game. I think he wants Goku to take out Jiren, or preferably both of them are out before he moves.

He's been doing a better job of conserving his energy than most of them.

Then again, he gets to be able to use Golden form for as long as he wants, while the others (barring 17 and 18) still suffer from stamina issues, which isn't fair.

I'm wondering how the manga will deal with his Golden form.

So in addition to 4/5 of Team Nerd getting knocked off, the "bald" theory is still in play [lol]. If he doesn't get kicked for idling, Freeza better watch out, unless he learned some hair growth techniques in Hell.

Freeza seemed really intrigued when he saw the gods freak out over Ultra Instinct. I'm certain he's observing Goku to try to learn as much as he can about it.

If Freeza can obtain Ultra Instinct, he'd have a chance of taking on the gods themselves... or so he seems to think anyway.

So much of the tournament of power being about strategy...

Goku is, as always, the exception. He gets to have a great fight and usually look good, even if he gets absolutely massacred.

Indeed Goku gets to have a good fight and while he is no less self interested than most fighters, he just looks better in comparison to them.

Gohan gets ignored in general in the arc but it seems like they didn't even try to come up with a strategy...

https://www.animenewsnetwork.com/interest/2017-12-07/dragon-ball-z-figure-set-offers-101-meta-coolers-for-usd3400/.124916

3,400 bucks for 101 Metal Coolers.

Is this a good deal?

No, because there's no one who actually needs 101 Metal Cooler figurines.

Uh yeah, but the type of person who would try and recreate the Cooler Revenge movie with dolls and the correct number of Coolers is not someone who would consider whatever they are getting a good deal on the hundreds of figurines they plan to buy in bulk.

My prediction for the order of the remaining U7 eliminations: Piccolo (confirmed), 17 and 18 (probably at or around the same time and related to Paparoni controlling them), Vegeta, Frieza, Goku. Gohan is the last man in.
