Dragon ball super episode 123 was a better episode then 122. Sure 122 had better art but that’s about it. Everything else was superior in 123 imo

Some really liked how great the two Zenos were as commentators:

But the biggest moment of the episode, Vegeta reaching a new power level, garnered the biggest reactions:
OMG that episode of Dragon Ball Super! I nearly teared up when Vegeta had his flashback to Cabba.
I’m gonna be so disappointed when Vegeta doesn’t win the Tournament of Power.

Vegeta using Cabbaโs loss as a way to tap into his new form was awesome character development for him. Dragonball Super is Vegetaโs show. pic.twitter.com/Yoo27YjXga

Absolutely adored the second half of tonight’s Dragon Ball Super.
I will never not think that Goku and Vegeta working together is the most hype thing in the world. Never gets old.

Dragon Ball Super‘s “Universal Survival” arc is part of the recent simulcast agreement that sites like Crunchyroll and Funimation have scored. DragonBall Super airs on Crunchyroll Saturday evenings at 7:15 p.m. CST. Adult Swim airs the English dub during its Toonami block Saturday evenings at 9:30 p.m, and is now available to stream on FunimationNOW and Amazon Video.
There is also currently a new Dragon Ball film in the works for 2018. The film will focus on the Saiyans, the “origins of Goku‘s power,” and potentially the story of the very first Super Saiyan God. Not only does it aim to be the best film in the series, original creator Akira Toriyama will be contributing to the film’s script and new character designs.
