As a great fan of DB, I find this new series very poor and inconsistent, only made to stretch its business. Gt was terrible, but this one is not better. I hope it's not spam, but can we open a thread for DB Multiverse as well? It's a comic made by fans, but it's very well done. you can check it on its site :)
For those who don't know it: some aliens discovered how to travel throughout universes, which differ for one or more events (such as, in one universe Gohan was defeated by Cell, in another one Vegeta was beheaded by Kulilin on Earth), and they propose a tournament between these universes, but there's more beneath it ;).
The only side effect is that only 3 pages come out per week :(
It has had its moments, sadly the anime is better than the manga though

Never thought i would say that about toriyamas masterpiece

Def worth reading / watching but i am also slightly dissapointed

excuse me, but what are you talking about? About DB, DBM or DBS? If you are referring to the original DB, then I totally disagree with you, the anime is garbage (not well done) and useless filler, whereas the Manga is a masterpiece.:verily

It's out.

Looks like keep fighting until they lose this time. So if Goku wins against Botamo, he will face the second opponent.
I'm quite disappointed by these chapters, and by this tournament as well. It's just the same of what happened when they were fighting Baba's 5 warriors. Actually, DB is a an outstanding manga, where the main character (and not just him) gets a moral growth throughout the story that you hardly find one like this in another manga. Think of when, during the Cell Game, he explained how Gohan is stronger than them, or when he tells Piccolo that he hadn't tried to defeat Bu because as a dead he shouldn't interfere. :) Even Piccolo replies with:"you are really outstanding,:zomg http://www.mangapanda.com/dragon-ball/477/11 .
Here (in DBS) we have stupid fights with dumb characters, this is terribly getting worse :fail

i mean why couldnt champa just use these super dragon balls to bring his earth back? or bring back the people?

We got names of 4 next episodes.

In 33 episode Goku will win his match. Question is what % of his power will he use.

Chapter 9 will probably be about Goku win and Piccolo trying to win.

Korean scans out.

Goku: You...
Yamcha: As expected from Goku, it's a complete victory, isn't it?
Tenshinhan: Yeah... he doesn't even give his opponent a chance to fight back.

- Botamo bounces around like a gum ball.

Goku: ..........You.... don't actually do anything, do you?
Yamcha: !
Tenshinhan: ..........
Goku: Then... how about this? Ha!!!!!

- Kamehame Ha hits.

Kuririn: Oh!! Is this it!?

- Botamo has no damage.

Bulma: What the hell's up with that guy?
Kamesennin: ...If he doesn't even get damaged his stamina doesn't decrease.
Goku: What should I do...?
Champa: Fufufu... that's good.
Beers: Tsk
Piccolo: This is bad... at this rate it's Goku's stamina that will decrease first...!
Vegeta: Kakarrot is the strongest but if he doesn't deal any damage then there's no way to win.
Kuririn: Goku... is still fine, he hasn't even turned Super Saiyajin...
Vegeta: We don't know if he could deal any damage if turning into Super Saiyajin.
Kuririn: ! No...way...
Goku: Damn!!!!
Piccolo: But the only option left is for him to go all the way and try to hit him with all his strength....
Vegeta: Hmpf... to think Kakarrot would have to use all his strength in the first match...
Piccolo: Preserving his strength for the next match...... it would be best if he gave up on that idea.
Goku: I got it!!!
Vegeta: So... what will you do?
Piccolo: Please, let this work...
Botamo: ?

- Goku pushes Botamo down.

Piccolo: Hm?
Vegeta: !
Botamo: Wha... what the? This doesn't hurt at all!
Kuririn: Goku... what will you...
Goku: Yo...

- Goku grabs Botamo's feet, goes to the edge of the ring, lets go of him and Botamo falls on his ass.

Botamo: Y... you bastard!!!

- Botamo punches and Goku grabs his hand

Botamo: Ou.

- Goku tosses him.

Champa: !
Kuririn: Wha?
Announcer: Botamo fell off the ring!!! The winner is Son Goku from the Seventh Universe!!!!
Crowd from Earth: Oooooo!!!!
Piccolo: ...... I see.
Vegeta: Tsk, so you could do that.
Beers: Oh, he actually used his head.
Whis: Of course, going out-of-bounds was the ony way.
Beers: Yeah, that's it.
Champa: Grrr..... Damn you...

- Goku turns to Hit, who his silent with crossed arms.

Goku: .......
Announcer: So, the winner Son Goku will now fight with Universe 6's Frost!!!!
Piccolo: You win and you go right into the next match... this is really intense...
Vegeta: The next one is him...
Tenshinhan: That's Universe 6's Freeza... right?
Kamesennin: If that's so, it's a bit troublesome...
Frost: Yoroshiku <- Yeah, this one is tricky to find the best term so just go with it
Goku: E?... Y-yeah yoroshiku!

- They shake hands

Frost: Let's do our best!
Kuririn: W...what? This Freeza acts very differently...
Bulma: His gentlemanship is like he's a different person, that's good.
Announcer: Now, the second match... Start!!!

- They fight.

Kamesennin: What a fierce battle... I can't even see the movements of their hands...
Goku: Daryaaa!!!

- They fight more.

Frost: Ha!!!

- They fight even more. Some rocks go flying to Beers and Whis and the latter crushes them with his finger.

Whis: They both aren't showing their skills.
Beers: That's stupid! Hurry up and finish it!
Kuririn: They disappeared again!
Kamesennin: They are so fast we can't keep up!

- People watch. They fight.

Frost: Ka.... kaha.....guu.... *smirks*
Goku: .... I thought so.
Frost: .....? What do you mean?
Goku: ...You seem to be measuring my true strength.
Frost: E? I'm not doing such a thing.
Goku: Transform into that "final thing". You're thinking about transforming little by little by watching what your opponent's like, right?
Frost: ...How is it you know that?
Goku: In our Universe I fought someone that looked just like you.
Frost: ... I see, so that's why.
Goku: If you go at your pace you'll be defeated before using your true strength.
Frost: ... I thank you for the advice. Well then, allow me to go into my final form. Ha!!!!
Cabba: He... he'll transform...?
Frost: Kaaaaaaa....!!!

- Frost turns into something like Freeza's third form.

Goku: .......
Vegeta: That bastard... Final form my ass... taking us for fools.
Kuririn: --- That's the first time Goku sees that form... Back then, he hadn't yet arrived...
Piccolo: Tsk... That form makes me remember bad stuff....
Champa: Fufun!
Frost: Is this good?
Goku: ... Guess so, though it's different from the one I know.
Frost: ... By the way, did "me" over there win against you?
Goku: ... It's best not to ask that.
Frost: ...! ... It seems he didn't win... Well, it won't go that way with me...
Goku: Let's go!
Frost: Please do.

- They fight.

Champa: ... This is good! Frost is winning.
Vados: Of course, he's the strongest prizefighter from our Universe. <- No plural so maybe she's referring to all their fighters instead of singling Frost out.
Universe 6 Kaioushin: Oh, it seems the one named Frost from our Universe is winning.
Old Kaioushin: Hehehe, is that so?
Frost: Hyaaa!!!!

- Blasts Goku away with a ki-like blast.

Frost: How about this? *smirks*
Frost: I'd recommend for you to give up, before you have serious injuries...
Goku: Fuu, that one really woke me up, thank you!!!
Frost: What?
Goku: I'm a bit of a slow starter. By the way, you're hiding one more transformation, aren't you?... Thinking about the next matches and preserving your strength, right? Such an unpleasant guy...
Frost: ... Unpleasant guy?
Goku: Yeah, just like me.

- Goes Super Saiyajin.

Frost: !!
Champa: W-what!? He-he's a Saiyajin, right!?
Vados: ... It seems he's no ordinary Saiyajin.
Universe 6 crowd: W-what... is that...!!
Goku: Are you ok like that? I'll make you decide!!

- Goku attacks.

Frost: Ku!!! Ha.... ha!!!!

- Transforms instantly into the final form.

Goku: I thought so, finally a form I remember well.

i am referring to DBS

i loved the moment when vegeta one shotted ginyu in the anime, one of the most epic db anime moments ever

but as far as the manga, i feel like the story is lacking effort, like toriyama was just trying to find any reason for the other universe to become open for travel

i mean why couldnt champa just use these super dragon balls to bring his earth back? or bring back the people?
Ah, I misunderstood, luckily :D. Actually, I watched the first episode (and the movie BoG) and that was enough to judge this season "trash" :-_- . It's a pity, 'cause I was really interested in the innovative ideas of Battle of Gods, but as a fan I couldn't stand such mistakes.
As for Ginyu's death, I just watched its episode to check whether it really was worthy, and to be honest it wasn't :( .
As you said, the story lacks of consistency and as i already stated before: the characters suffer an involution which is barely forgivable. Seriously, this Gohan is the parody of the one he was during Bu's saga :fail, and what about Freeza who suddenly becomes stronger than a Ssj3? he's been fearing a simple ssj for decades, whereas he needs only 4 months now to surpass even Bu??? o.O
and to conclude, the dragon balls cannot revive people who died over one year before. but even worse was watching Goten being forced to turn into Ssj to fight a giant snake: so on earth there was a snake stronger than god (kami) and even freeza? c'mon guys... :fail

Goku loves the challenge and it would be boring (not just for us for him too) if he uses his trumpcard at the beginning.

I would also use SSB and oneshot everyone and everything but I'm different from goku

The tournament has been a letdown so far. I didn't think the Universe 6 fighters would be so weak. Hopefully the cell doppelganger is strong.

Yeah, so far it kinda seems like the only reason goku and vegeta have a challenge is that they are not using SSB. If anything it is entirely possible they are not even using their god ki... On the other hand I am surprised that piccolo is that strong. It seems like he got a somewhat overwhelming increase in power considering he even held his ground against frost.

Since you don't watch the anime I'll use the spoiler tag.

Yes, Frost, even at full power is no match for Goku and Vegeta when they turn SSJ, they are not using their God Ki. Piccolo got stronger but he's below Frost level too. Hit seems to be the only one who might be at this level, he was not impressed by Goku's power and is much stronger than Frost. Cabba is a mystery at this point because he didn't even know Saiyans could transform, but maybe he is like Mystic Gohan.

Ahh, I see. Why are they not using god ki?

Because they know they are too strong I think. They also have to keep their stamina because they fight immediately the next opponent after a victory. Goku provoked Frost because he watned to know his full power but Frost at full power is only stronger than base Goku and Vegeta, whoa re ridiculously strong already.

Well, about the anime:
It kinda seems like the whole monaka thing is a lie and he does not have any real strength to speak of. The big question here will be why exactly beerus is lying here. I can think of two things. So that he can say he beat champa's fighters without even using his triumph card or he simply couldn't get or find the actual second stronger (even though whis should have had an easy time doing this).

I am not sure of what to think of piccolo. It is good to see him get stronger but somehow him being this powerful is weird. I guess the issue is that frost to begin with wasn't that strong? I am also missing the other SS forms. If they are not using god ki then they could at least use the other presumably more powerful super saiyan forms. On the other hand I think I remember reading about toriyama saying that goku was going to give up his use of SS2 and SS3 in favor of SS because it worked better in the long term. But I am not sure of how that works out....

I don't think Beerus would have chosen him if he was weak considering what's at stake. He didn't know the power of U6 fighters and yet he considers him his trump card.

Frost is stronger than Base Goku so he must be well above the likes of Buu, they are the five strongest fighters of their universe after all.

Magetta lost to SSJ Vegeta but his feats put him well above Frost, and Cabbe will turn SSJ next, probably for the first time, Vegeta will turn SSB as well. It was confirmed that both he and Goku are not using their God Ki because of Hit.

@kkck

In the last episode it's been confirmed that Cabba is equal to base Vegeta, and he learned to transform so he is probably somewhat equal to current Vegeta SSJ, he lost after one punch from SSB Vegeta though. As for Hit
