I don't remember that. Even if so, there's more material from both the Manga and Guidebooks to point otherwise. I don't know, Gohan's potential wasn't really realised in the future.
As far as present Gohan goes, this mofo was so powerful end of Buu Saga that they had to nerf him like twice. He was laughably ahead of base Super Buu whom Goku would stand no chance against, even with Vegeta's help [admitted himself]
Even in Super, as a shell of his former self, god-ki empowered beings are claiming that Gohan's potential is in class of its own.
Don't hate the superior story arc
Get obliterated !
Also, you're gonna be able to enjoy those eyes on a beautiful face, instead of that Shrek ersatz.
Did you miss the entire Black arc or are you oblivious on purpose to Trunks' power ?

Universe 9 definitely takes races from other universe. I mean not just Broly, but Beerus's race should also be unique to 6/7 and yet we have the shot of faux-Beerus in the team... And hell even the main big bad appears to be the same race as the last tournaments Referee.
It's no wonder their team leader is so prominent in fighting Goku in the OP if they're a team comprised of fighters from other universes.

His enhancements are organic.
He had less alterations than 18 if that's what you ask, so he didn't need any change.

Anyone have a high quality shot of the scene with all the GoDs in the OP?

the day goku becomes the strongest is the day he dies on the inside

Well said. And I also assume that that enemy was from universe 7 like I said previously, that is why he is eager to fight Goku.

Aren't there 13 universes left?
First picture has 8 and second has 4. You can see them all in the preview too.
Why there are only 12 representative ones? One of the universes is not participating?

Loved the episode. Loved the art-style. Loved the jazzy remix of the OP used in it. Loved the Z sound effects. Loved Goten being an actual character for a change. Loved Vegeta getting nervous about his new child.
Never been a big fan of Super but I'm enjoying this soft-reboot so far. They're making all the right choices (except with Gohan's design I guess). It seems we're getting a fight next episode? I was expecting more build-up episodes first, so it's a nice surprise 
!
Can't wait for the next episode!

Never mind. It's the sum of twin universes which makes 13.

They should have never shown that Brola was a girl.
Imagine.
We discover the OP as is, everyboby thinks Broly is there !!! ( nobody would notice the boobs on that shot tbh)
Then he's not in any team... People think he'll show up and interrupt the tournament....
And then the frail little girl turns into Broly.
The Broly fans meltdown would have been succulent.

After this is over Goku is going to wish for the other 6 universes to come back and that's where the greatest villain is from.

Eh, it would be obvious she's a girl with earnings, lipstick, cloths, and boobs.
But I agree it would've been fun discovering she's that frail girl on our own

Broly has the same earrings.
The lipstick isn't visible and could easily be thought to be shadows with the light effect they use.
The boobs could more than easily be flowing movement of the shirt caused by the aura.
Be honest. If we didn't know that was a girl, not many people would have thought "omg a female Broly" and would have just assumed it's regular Broly.
Cell absorbing a Rildo and Dr. Gero created Cell, Super 17, Super 18, and Super Krillin after they operate on Krillin and turn him into an android and create a counterpart for him to merge with.

I suppose the universe 9 champion will beat Hit so easily that Goku will be very surprised.
Actually I think Grand Priest will explain the rules at the start of the next episode based on the reactions of Beerus and everyone in the preview.
Just watched the episode.
Opening is fucking amazing. I wasn't a fan of the opening we had before, it was passable, and I think it's been better than some of the Dragon Ball openings, but still not that great, but I could see myself being fine with this one for awhile.
I like how they started this episode, and hope the next few follow pursuit, which it seems like they will. Take it slow and develop the characters, give them an episode each to set straight what they're fighting for and why their fighting, though I could see Krillin and Gohan not needing much time given the previous episodes, but that seems null and void for one of those characters going off the NEP, but that's fine, he's never officially said he wants to be a fighter again, and said the opposite when sparring with Goku, so he needs it.

can't wait. I want DEETS
On episode 5, I know they used the Bluray version, but I don't think it looked that bad, and this is my first time seeing episode 5. I could see the parts people hated, they still didn't look great, but not the embarrassing images I saw screenshots of.
The one I was looking for, and didn't really see was SSJ3, I remember that one looking really bad from images, but it looked better than a lot of the other stuff, either I missed the real bad SSJ3 stuff, or a lot of work went into fixing those.

So after watching the episode I'm curious, how weak does Goku have to be to get hurt by a bullet. Like he can take a full ki blast and a bullet would hurt? Other than that I'm HYPED for this arc and could Gohan regain the mystic transformation and be awesome again.

The animation was still so bad for episode 5 with tons of off model shots.
No amount of "fixing" could make that episode look good with the original choreography still in place.

Genuine question here if chichi disapproves so much of goku and he just thinks she nags, why not like divorce and get it over with lmao. She did such a 180 since her dragon ball personality. As a kid she was a dummy, as a teen she was pissed off but later showed it was all because goku didn't keep her promise and then went back to her lovey dovey self and now she just seems pissed off 24/7.
I mean I understand she doesn't want her children to be such care free non working bums like their dad, but Gohan already turned out fine and there is absolutely no reason you can't let Goten go have fun with his dad, who barely seems to interact with him and only really pays attention to Goten when he wants to go train. This is like the mom who instead of putting limits to the entertainment a child seeks just constantly pushes homework on him. I want Goku to get serious and just tell her to let him train with his kid for a couple of hours on weekends or something.

Goku SSJ3 is an inbetween frame. That shot of him looking bad was one of the most dishonest "comparison" online.
But I also don't know how to respond to your post.
"Well guys I know the version I saw is the heavily modified one, but it wasn't as bad as you said it was".
Well no shit.
You didn't experience what we saw.

Did you notice the graphical quality of this opening and the latest episodes? Nothing compared to the first episodes which looked very flawed almost drawn by an amateur (when Goku first met Beerus it looked almost like Naruto vs Pain battle's caricatural low quality).
Now it is closer to the recent movies' quality.
Edit: When I was typing this post, Slaythe's post came meanwhile. :x

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
That waS seriously 4 years ago? Goddamn

Hold it right there, please learn just how much work and frames are in that Naruto vs pain fight before you even START to compare it to episode 5 of super
The episode you talk about was aired unfinished. The finished version was in the average of your typical Super episode.
The last few episodes have looked pretty decent.
I wouldn't say it looks better than the first episodes, because there was some pretty good stuff in those episodes.
Also I recently rewatched the Copy Vegeta fight, and it is a fucking disgrace. It's almost as bad as the FnF fights.
So yeah we don't know how this arc will fare yet.
The Trunks arc had a few shitty action episodes but on average it was pretty good.

Anyway. Both animes got much better afterwards.
