Don't care what you say, this episode is one of the best of the arc. Muten Roshi kicking all kinds of ass and while I don't to get to this kind of argument, shows that battle powers aren't everything in battle. It's not how strong is your attack but how well you use your skills and fighting experience to overcome your opponent.

Amazing Episode! Roshi finally has some awesome Screentime!
It really hit me emotiionally. Powerlevels are still fucked up, but Roshi has Experience, which outdoes Power, Speed and Stamina!
I really felt it when Roshi almost died.
And Goku finally became more human again.

RULE FUCKING NUMBER 1 FOR THE TOURNAMENT OF POWER
Fighters cannot be killed, use weapons, or use healing items

meanwhile in the writers room

"guys we need to give Master Roshi some screen time and do call backs like the Mafuba because we can't stop jerking off to old Dragon Ball references"
"Doesn't he need a container for that to work? that's technically a weapon though"
"shit we wrote ourselves into a corner instead of thinking of something original.. what do we do?"
"Oh yea we have the greatest plot device ever.. Zen-Oh.. we'll just say he likes it and doesn't disqualify their team" because they have to win obviously even though the old fuck broke the rules just to bring back an old Dragon Ball reference THEY ALREADY FUCKING USED IN THE LAST ARC

Nice episode, Roshi really came through.

The final parts with Roshi supposedly dead was a bit over dramatic but the episode as a whole was good.

Meh for Goku being held back by some blue tentacles. xD

Há, finally, at last I can say I like a Tournament of Power episode from beginning to end.

Roshi got the respect he deserved, if I had to nitpick, it would be that Ganos shouldn't have been shown facing Goku earlier, but that's just a minor detail.

Oh well, I guess is time for me to start drawing the female characters that I knew where there to be easily eliminated, females have always been disposable objects in Akira's mind, I'm not even mad, I just find his sexism funny (even though is a blow at the variety department).

Gokou really needs to stop dicking around.
For more than half the episode he was tied up enjoying his hentai moment then easily got away using blue to save Muten Roshi.
I think the problem is that the blue take to much energy ( im manga: when the blue is to often turn on and of after some time you can only use 10%) mabye something like that will happen ... and honestly some how other Univers 7 chrackter must get screentime. Goku, Veget and Freezer could use their god ki and kick most of the other fighters out (at least all K.Os from U7), this would be boring.

Does anyone know who is the composer of the OST for this episode? In beetwen the fight against Ganos, when muten roshi launch the kame hame ha, the music is too similar to the antispiral theme from gurren lagann.


And btw, one of the best episodes of the arc.

Greath episode. Absolutely loved to see Muten Roshi getting so much screentime. Didn't expect him being that strong, it's really crazy if you think about his age.

His experience is something nobody can train and he's right, I also think with the opponents he won against Vegeta, Goku and the others would had problems with.

That Kamehameha :o

I was worried about him. Pretty touching moment with Krillin and Goku and you don't see Goku cry normally. Even Beerus was impressed by Muten Roshi.

Hmm I don't know what to think about the preview of the next episode, but I don't it will be as good as this one.

Honestly, I didn't expect such a good episode. I just loved the old badass and wise Roshi and all the Dragon ball throwbacks. The dramatic and emotional final moment, that's what I've been missing so much, as well as that caring Goku. Though some nonsenses like the 34 minutes left or Goku's struggle against the blue tentacles, it was definitely one of my favorite episodes in the tournament, maybe even the number one.

"Perfect?"

Nah, Mastered Blue form Goku shouldn't be able to kick Fusion Zamasu's butt like that.

Toyotaro must be struggling very hard right now with Toei's inconsistencies XD



No, he isn't, the manga isn't based on the anime.

Akira write a skeleton script, he handles a copy to both, TOEI/anime & Toyotaro/manga, both are allowed to fill the blanks and make changes however they please.

Actually, the manga is ahead, on December the 1st Tournament of Power arc trailer had images only from the manga.

I wouldn't be surprised if Toyotaro is drawing Goku's new form Vs Jiren right now.

I wonder if Android 18 came to Roshi's aid instead of Gokou. Let's say Krillin cried out for his wife to help.If she saw her husband so distressed about his master she could've done the same, aside from the defibrillator ki blast Gokou used; Android 18 would also use CPR with mouth to mouth. It might've stolen Gokou's touching moment but it opens up an opportunity for Muten Roshi to do his thing.

If there's one thing that would bring Master Roshi back from the dead is a hot chick reviving him.

That scenario would stay true to DB spirit. Gokou's scene with him is touching but I would've prefered Android 18. Gokou's spotlight needs to taken down a notch so others could shine.

Up to this point, Roshi had always taken the background role, ever since original DB ended. This was his moment to shine. Even Satan, the weakest human ever had more moments. I think also the only human to never die and revived by Shenlong.

I personally thought the episode was pretty boring. I mean I like how they're trying to make him relevant and how his role is to take down the enemies with more complicated abilities but I don't think anything he did was really that amazing. Also wish he died at the end of the episode. It would have been unexpected and add some severity to the tournament.

How can the manga is ahead when the newest chapter 27 is just the start of the arc? Toei could just asked Toyotaro to draw some scenes to use for the trailer. Mangaka cannot work that far ahead. Only drawing to meet the deadline take most of their time.

I was highly anticipating an episode focused on the old man, to finally get some martial arts action ! So...
where did it all go?
At least, there was an otherworld recycling Lanfan "strategy". Of course, in a very XXIc. jap.children program way.

2/5 Oh, so Mutenroshi can die even when he isn't killed now?

I was kinda thinking the universe 4 guy would accidentally kill Master Roshi because he's old and they'd earn a win that way but no, Master Roshi is a bamf.

...But seriously Dragon Ball Super GIVE ME BACK MY TEARS. I honestly teared up at the thought of him finally dying. But alas, no one dies in Dragon Ball.

I'm so glad master roshi got his turn in the spotlight; I kind of wish he stayed dead only because it would have made for a better story/drama like it only cheapened his sacrifice to bring him back that quickly but i'm so happy he's made a serious growth in character and also whooped the pants off the competition with his renewed focus. I only wish yamcha and chaotzu had a chance to shine too but they're still on earth.

oh one last thing: i was happy to see roshi's fight against ageism in general. i was taught to respect my elders and in this respect roshi has really shined (and i'm glad this show stopped just pegging him as a creepy weirdo).
