So with only 2 Universes left, since the focus is so heavily on Universe 7 all the time, let's take a moment to recall Universe 11's remaining fighters' contributions to the Tournament of Power.
Jiren: eliminated Maji=Kayo & Hit (solid), refused to eliminate Kale, refused to eliminate low-stamina Goku, didn't give a shit when overpowered fusion characters were threatening to destroy the ring
Dyspo: got the shit beaten out of himself by Hit, fucked up against Maji=Kayo, is gonna get the shit beaten out of himself once more soon
Toppo: delivered the sickest burn to Vegeta but other than that has spent the last 39 minutes of the ToP just watching his teammates get eliminated
Going into this final, deciding match, Universe 7 has eliminated 50 out of their 70 rivaling competitors, losing but 5 fighters in the process. Universe 11 has lost 7, for the whopping gain of... 2 eliminations by Jiren.
A round of applause for Universe 11. Truly built up to be a credible threat.
This post sums a part of it... Oher universe didn't have true interraction, our Universe did basically everything, it cut all the fun (imo.

Honestly not sure how well I'm going to cope with no DBS this Saturday. Fuck this planet.
I know and it's one of my most hyped episodes in awhile. Oh well it could be worse, at least it's only a week!

I completely disagree with everything. No idea how you don't like this arc. Strap yourself in and have some fun.

This arc was really good imo. Also Ultra Instinct is a legitimately interesting development since it's different than just simply reaching another new level of Super Saiyan. I feel like there's some really good set up for upcoming arcs (possibly fighting Beerus after mastering Ultra Instinct, Great Priest doing shady stuff, more tournaments with the remaining Universes, etc).

Too many power inconsistencies (even tough that's super all around), U7 doing everything. UI is a different thing but goes against DB in general. Since the very first fight arc DB was about training the body strenght past its limits. Too many gimmicks.
DB/Z proved that plot can be really interesting even without gimmicks or very special combat abilities. No need to add those.
And Super drags too much. Typical Toei dragging fasion. Fuck Toei honestly.

Agreed. This tournament has easily provided setup for at least 500 more episodes.

What shady stuff has the Priest done? Just some of his children are shady as crap haha.
As for other universes, I completely forgotten about them.

I'm talking about in the upcoming arcs. Based on what we've seen of him he could potentially do something shady. Never said he did anything yet though

I'm really sorry you have to spend your birthday feeling like this. Hopefully it's not actually your birthday yet.

I'm more surprised an entire week has passed since last time. Spent most of that time doing not a whole lot.

Sometimes I can't help but sigh and say "toriyama, please pay attention"
|
Toriyama, like any creative person, is subject to bouts of extreme stupidity and short-sightedness. This is why you need editors to catch this stuff.
|
I don't think that was Toryama decision.
It's about Battle of Godz and Its marketing. It had to have DBZ publicity so it couldn't have new characters designs, yet it couldn't be right after buu was defeated, it would be a bit 'too soon feel' and they wanted Videl pregnancy plot point.
Worse than their designs is goten and trunks not going to the tournament because childs. They are older now than what gohan was when he fough Cell, and Goku was 100%fine leaving him that responsibility when he still had time remaining on the chamber. And Gohan was sent to fight sayans and train with a demon when he was so small. The he went on a fucking journy to a different planet. No wonder Chi Chi then locked him on books.
|
Alson toryama involvement is just dropping some story points. Also!why anime and manga are so different.
|
The manga is basically how the anime would look if Tori really had his hands on it. While I enjoy it more and wish it were the canon of the anime, part of me enjoys having 2 different DBS to enjoy. I just want to see Goku using Hakai in animation, so good.
