Episode 89 of Dragon Ball Super saw Goku continue his recruiting efforts for Universe 7's 10-man team for the Tournament of Power.  Up next on hist list, were Tien ans Master Roshi, who were both at Tien's new martial arts dojo.  It just so happens that Tien was under attack from a former Crane School student who wanted revenge for Tien leaving.  However, it turns out the man to take down the femme fatale was Mater Roshi and his "unorthodox" approach to defeating young, beautiful women.  

However, Roshi's special techniques appears to have drawn the ire of the Japanese Broadcasting Ethics and Program Improvement Organization  (BPO).  They write, "In an animation program, there are scenes of an older man touching young girls' bodies and peeping at their underwear against their will. These scenes are almost irrelevant to the story. I love watching this show with my child every weekend, but it's also inappropriate for children to see this in an anime."

This description could be no one other than Master Roshi.  Though the BPO regularly cites anime for inappropriateness, it's very rare that any corrective action is taken.
