First, I want to mention this, some shots in this preview look absolutely incredible. Specially some of the Kefla shots. Usually there are some flaws in the preview, and the animation quality gets better by the time the episode comes out, as there’s a lot of fixing going on. But, it’s already looking amazing, I think next episode is going to be another epic animation episode like 115. DBS really stepped their game up with this Universal Survival Arc, and I think they put special emphasis when Goku uses Ultra Instinct since that’s a huge attention grabber and fans look forward to it.
Moving on, the magazine preview summary mentioned Goku will land a point blank Kamehameha on Kefla, and we also see Goku preparing the kamehameha on the preview, last one failed, but I think that could be the end of it, actually I think Kefla shouldn’t even be able to be a challenge to Ultra Instinct Goku, I hope that will not be the case. Till now it looks like they are on the right track, like after going Ultra Instinct Goku almost effortlessly countered all of her attacks putting her in total panic. Also, if you look in the preview Kefla looks all angry and furious trying to take on Goku, but as you know Ultra Instinct is a very calm and controlled state, and I believe Kefla’s senseless anger fueled attacks won’t do her any favor. She is not even trying to outsmart Goku and save her ass from the situation, which she should’ve been doing for survival.
However, Universe 6 now only has Kefla and The 2 Namekians left. Kefla getting eliminated would mean there would be only a matter of time before U6 gets annihilated.
So, what are some of the possible outcome of the Goku vs Kefla encounter?
Kefla might get eliminated by Goku next episode. Another possibility is, intense attacks from Goku might defuse Kefla, and then Goku might just get challenged by someone else leaving them to survive, but I don’t think that would be productive to the plot. At this point, what value can they bring individually?
Also a lot of screen time has been spent behind them, and I don’t think they have more segments planned with Kale and Caulifla in this Tournament. However, the end could come in another way, this is very unlikely but just putting it out there, in the preview we see Jiren opens his eye, something grabs his attention. I wonder if Jiren will one shot Kefla or could something unexpected happen?
Like, Jiren wants to fight Goku, but Kefla decides to protect Goku as Goku is energy drained. Then there’s a Jiren vs Kefla, kind of like how Hitman Hit bought some time for Goku. Of course Kefla will lose in that case, but would hold down Jiren for a while to give Goku a breathing space, and we do know Universe 2 will try to attack Goku in 117 while Androids protect him. I think Goku might be taking another rest for recharging while other try to keep him protected. Well, these are some of the ways it could go.
Anyways, if we go down the path of Kefla getting out then U6 comes down to the Namekians. Who are by the way, busy fighting Piccolo and Gohan, and they are surprisingly strong. Like stronger than Super Saiyan, but not enough to hold on for long. So it could go one of the two ways, soon just after or before Kefla is eliminated the 2 Namekians are also eliminated, resulting in Universe 6 getting destroyed.
There’s another option, which is unlikely to happen, but I really think that would be something exceptionally amazing, once they are down to the Naemkians they realize U6 has no chance. So, Champa orders them to fuse with Piccolo. Either both or one of them fuses with Piccolo and Universe 6 decides to survive for the time being putting it all behind Universe 7, and remember Champa owes one to his brother Beerus because Beerus did him a favor by wishing back Earth on Universe 6.
On the other hand, first time since Jiren started meditation he opened his eyes. Now, we don’t know if Jiren will engage in action or not, but most likely he won’t. Interestingly there’s no mention of Jiren or Kefla up to Episode 119.
117 does state, Goku will be energy drained, so it could be that Jiren takes note but as he sees Goku running out of energy he goes back to meditation once again. Maybe that’s why they are called the Pride Troopers, Jiren has too much Pride to fight a weakened Goku. However anything can happen, Jiren might get challenged by some other Universe warrior meanwhile, like a lot remains to be seen. The 2 invisible mystery fighters are yet to make an appearance. These are some of the things to keep your eyes open for in all of the coming episodes.
There’s a scene in the preview, where Goku seems to be powering up in his Ultra Instinct state with a lot of aura, but I think he doesn’t yet understand the concept properly. It shouldn’t be about powering up, and I think Goku will figure some flaws out, which lead him to lose last time against Jiren, and he might come up with an improved strategy this time.
Next will be Dragon Ball Super Episode 117 Review.
Well, guys, that’s all for now.
