[up] No, isn't it fourth? We've already had three (Boogie Back, Far Away and 70cm Square Window).

No beer?! But if there's no beer, then there's no beef or beans!

So tonight should show the creation of Hatchiyack: Game of the Year Edition.

Well we know that Biara isn't a part of it.

So I'm guessing this thing will eliminate the Androids.

[up][up]You know I don't think they look that alike either (though I definitely think there's a resemblance) but at this point I'm just trying to give him a different Hatchiyack sequel name every time I refer to him out of boredom.

He definitely looks similar to Hatchiyack. Saying they look nothing alike is silly.

Anyway, on the earlier discussions - this arc would have worked really well for Goten and Trunks. The timeframe means they can't be fused for the whole thing, but they'll still be able to use fusion for part of it. So you can have them fight separately for parts in a sensible way, still have Gotenks for bigger opponents (and because he's a character in his own right)

Also seeing a fusion interact with another fusion again would have been fun.

Bonus on the fact that Gotenks & Kefla are different fusions.

no we definitely needed roshi, krillin and tien. how could goten and trunks have eliminated more than what 6? 7? opponents either separately or together

See, episode 119?! THIS is how you do a single episode confrontation and make it feel climactic! Great episode, not the best in the tournament, but a very solid episode nonetheless. Megazord didn't disappoint, it was awesome. Koichiarator is a hell of a name to remember, but I'll manage. Shading on the robots was really nice, and Koichiarator HAD to have been time-consuming and difficult to animate, what with all the little details.

Biarra's (Viarra?) fight with the Androids was fun, and I like the other universe's continued bafflement at 17 and 18's infinite stamina, those two were definitely a great idea to add to the team just with that bonus alone.

121: Looks like the theories that Freeza is involved in Aniraza somehow have been jossed, same with 17 and 18 turning on U7 to fight with U3. On the other hand, I like that Aniraza's threat seems to more than just "he's really super strong (though he obviously is)". I was waiting for one of the combatants to actually try destroying the entire arena itself.

If Kafla had been a dance fusion, it would've made her a sensible Gotenks opponent and wouldn't raise the question of why everyone else doesn't use the extremely broken potara.

Goten and Trunks could easily take the place that the non-God Goku/Vegeta occupied so that those two wouldn't have to sandbag all the time.

"Just standing there and letting us attack you was a pretty stupid plan."

17 speaks the truth. Even if your opponents don't have infinite stamina, it doesn't seem like a wise plan of action.

Nice to see the Androids abuse infinite stamina to give us one of the rare instances of beam spam actually working. Next episode seems really cool, and I'm glad to see Frieza finally get off his butt.

I'm glad I don’t really watch DBS. Listening to almost all of you talking on a Doylist perspective because the writing suck at conveying the characters as organic is SO goddamn painful

I wonder what finally gets Frieza up to fight Hatchiyack: 358/2 Days. He's been on that rock for so long that I've started shipping him with it.

To us it looks that way, but you must understand he's only been on that rock for maybe five seconds in Frieza Time.

Not sure if Freeza's been standing on the same rock, but he's been passively observing since midway through the Goku/Caulifla and Kale fight, which amounts to about 7 in-universe minutes of just watching the events of the tournament.

Huh this is straight from watching the filler ep on Toonami but watching this episode makes me wish the kids weren't so shafted.
