I thought it was pretty clear he was disqualified.
It's not likely since Buu not joining the tournament seems to be in Toriyama's outline. The anime and manga can't differ that much.
Hit seems to be a character that will be important even after the tournament is over. Cabba and Frost too.

I think he did it on purpose to see what Monaka is all about. Monaka is on the last order, and I bet Goku will find a way to convince Vegeta to lose at some point to make Monaka fight.
Nah that was all Frost. Did you see the look of disgust on his face after Goku fell?

If you're talking about Vegeta's face, that may be that he doesn't know yet. There's no interest, plot wise, that Beerus' team win. The way the whole thing is set up, there's no interest in Goku/Piccolo/Vegeta's victory. Either Monaka is some really powerful guy, or Beerus was just trying to make a strawman with Monaka.
Nah it's pretty clear Frost hit him with some sort of poison.

Well, Jaco's reaction seems to hint at that. But the whole thing is a bit... blurry for now as far as I'm concerned. It's either Frost's technique, or Goku pretending to run out of stamina, hence why Frost seemed so happy when he felt Goku dropped his strength when blocking the hit.

It's not Goku faking. You can see a flash of light and a slit on the top of Frost's wrist where the toxin came out.
However, I feel like Frost cheated, and should be disqualified for it... But then again, what fun would that be?

If Goku had done it on purpose, we wouldn't have got a first-person view of his vision getting blurry.
EDIT: And it's not cheating either, wut! It's the same as if Goku had used Solar Flare, it's just a technique.

Good point ! Eh, too bad, I guess that's me hoping
Then I guess Piccolo and Vegeta both might lose to that kind of abilities. Or Vegeta might be the winner... and then Beerus will reveal Monaka isn't a fighter at all hahahaa
I mean, you can hear a special sound effect after Goku gets hit by the final punch, and at the exact same time, Jaco notices it and you see a close up of Frost SMILING ALL OF A SUDDEN.
I don't see how people can doubt what happened, let me sum up the dialog :
Frost : Impossible... I didn't think he would be that much stronger....
Goku: You seem like a nice guy, I don't wanna hurt you. You should give up now.
Frost : That's a nice offer, but sadly, I have to keep fighting, I promised to the children I would win for them...I don't have the choice...
* attacks goku with the last attack *
Basically Frost is a great guy but he is willing to sacrifice his honor to win for "the greater good".
It's similar to when Goku decided to become Super Saiyan God in the BOG movie.
Goku in the preview says :
"I don't know what kind of technique hit me... But I'm out !!!" so it's not a weapon.

If this toxin or whatever is a part of Frost's biology, then it's not cheating. Dirty and unfair? Possibly, since even Frost didn't like having to do it, but not outright cheating.
Yep. This was the temperament I was hoping for since Piccolo said he felt no ill will from him. Just a great reversal from Frieza. I'm starting to agree with people saying Universe 7 is the evil twin lol.

Yeah, that was really disappointing, but expected. I mean, even Kura has the same voice actor as Frieza in Japanese. The actor just uses a slightly deeper voice. In the French dub however, Kura has a different voice actor, one with a naturally deeper voice. I wish they would have done something along those lines for Frost.

I could agree with this. Piccolo has always been shown to be a very smart fighter. I'm sure he noticed what happened to Goku.

I wonder does Uni 6 have a Kid Buu variant? I'm most interested in that.
Maybe not.
Buu was revealed to get stronger and stronger by absorbing hatred and evil.
But U6 seems to be a reversed U7. While evil does exists there, it doesn't seem to be as widespread. I mean, saiyans and freezer are on the good side, that pretty much stops 90% of crime right there.
Whichever Buu they might have had, would probably be pathetic and weak.

If Hit ends up being their "variant" of Cell, it's entirely possible the next arc could be built around their Buu equivalent being awoken/resurrected, and he ends up being much more powerful than the Buu we knew. Maybe even a female Majin?
Hm.

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
Don't forget that humans were apparently evil or misguided enough to destroy their planet.

Is that fat green god of U6 their equivalent of the Grand Supreme Kai? If so then this could mean Buu didn't go on a rampage to kill the gods in U6.

I think there is or was a Buu variant in their universe, otherwise they wouldn't have only one Kaioshin (the second one was confirmed to be his attendant).
He failed the test because he fell asleep. If he had answered enough questions he wouldn't have been disqualified for sleeping. Toriyama's outline probably just said that he didn't pass, which is why the manga and anime had different takes on it.

I'm starting to think piccolo may not only beat frost, but get 2 or even 3 wins total. I could see Hit cleaning house after that. I hope vegeta gets at least one win, but he almost certainly has to lose so monaka gets a turn.
I don't see a rep coming in for the last spot. It's evident u7 outclasses u6 for the most part so they needed a handicap so the earth fighters could get a win without winning the overall tourney.
I'm not disappointed cabba doesn't know of any transformations. Does the SSG ritual require SS? If not, it seems like it would be easy for u6 to find enough pure hearted sayains to make SSGs all day. All they need is the knowledge of the ritual if it doesn't require the participants to be SS.

I expect either this to happen or Piccolo realizing he needs to stay away from him and focus on ki blasts. He seems to be charging his Special Beam Cannon in the preview.

Maybe a variant the gets stronger by a different means could work. Just like how different the Saiyans are in U6.

There should 100% be a Dabura variant in Universe 6.
Not sure how being the smartest person on the team makes him a scrub but okay.
Doesn't take much to be called the "smartest" in that team. And when was the last time intelligence mattered in a db fight?
Literally last nights episode. Goku using his brains to toss Winnie the pooh out of the ring.
Judging by the tournament so far it might be technique that wins out overall.

Considering how fast it's going, it's clear now that the arc won't really focus on the tournament.

Frost is a dirty fighter. He definitely poisoned Goku.
He didn't do it for the sake of winning, he did it so that champa would be forced to honor his word and save the kids. What he did was dirty, but he isn't a dirty fighter, per say.
Also, how fun would it be if Piccolo just killed Frost and got eliminated ?
Savage. It could really set up U7 as the evil doers if they get sent into U6.

I can't believe how much that manga chapter spoiled me in all aspects. I need to never read that again if I want to just enjoy Super for what it is...

fuckin' called it, man
I avoid it by not caring about spoilers ever. Like I read this thread before the good subs come out and before I watch the episode, never impacts my enjoyment of the episode when I do watch it

I'm not referring to that, I mean it spoiled me in terms of giving the fights way better choreography/intensity and for some reason I expected the anime to be on par.
never again
probably not

Speaking of which, just finished watching. The next ep preview has me excited, should be great to see Piccolo in battle again.

Frost isn't any more dirty than Bacterian using chemical warfare on Krilin in OG DB.

It's not like he used a weapon. As far as we know it seems like either a technique or a natural part of his body. In other shounen fighting series it wouldn't even be a very odd power, the main issue is that this is Dragonball where direct attacks became the only thing used by heroes and even most villains.
