I guess it's just hard for some to fathom the possibility of Krillin being as strong as what's implied in the preview. It's Dragon Ball Super, so it wouldn't surprise me if the implication ends up being true. If they want to facepalm someone, it should be the writers, not me.

We aren't facepalming you, bro. We are just laughing at how ridiculous the notion is.

Oh, fair enough. The thought of it makes me laugh too tbh.

Yeah, one filler episode of Krillin fighting fucking Tambourine and co. powers him up to SSJ2 levels. Can't say I'm surprised since this is Super.

It's obviously not really Basil in the preview. Could be some form of image training or Goku imagining how Kuririn will fight in the tournament.

How can Krillin imagine fighting someone he has no knowledge about? Goku or Krillin imagining them fighting is an assumption on your part, at the moment.

Look at the spoilers for the next episodes and then come back to me. And the stage looks nothing like what the tournament will look like.

Isn't there like 3 more episodes before the tournament?

I've seen them now. The titles clarify that the feat in the preview is not quantifiable for the real Krillin (which I never disagreed with, because I was speaking hypothetically), but that doesn't necessarily mean Krillin won't be at the level the preview suggested. I never mentioned the stage in the first place.

We've already got a good taste on what the Tournament of Power stage will look like. Just by looking at the floor it's definitely something completely different.

Right. Looking back on it, the image training arena does look notably different to the ToP arena, despite the former looking blurry in the preview.

Lol that's was just an image training like he did with Gohan during their trip to Namek. Even if it's true that Krillin is a SSjin2 tier, there's no surprise here since he became a martial artist again.

What do you mean there's no surprise? He cuts his hair and can suddenly beat Super Perfect Cell? Why didn't he kill him before? So sad how hard you try to defend this bullshit, smh.

Fearless: The spoilers confirm that it wasn't real, and I never actually said it was real. Just speaking hypothetically, that's all. Perhaps I should have made that more clear initially.

Out-of-universe-wise, Krillin reaching low SSJ2 tier or higher wouldn't be surprising because it could just count as being another plot hax to fit the narrative.

Though In-universe-wise, it would be surprising and questionable. Krillin getting back into martial arts not too long before the tournament wouldn't make for a reasonable enough explanation. I think that's what SuperSaiyan2 is getting at here.

That was on the preview of the next episode. Also there's a time gap between Krillin episode to the current arc.
