Well, considering how he's already caused the deaths of two whole universes and will cause the death of five more, I'd say he deserves the title.

I'm sure Universes 9 and 10 feel the same. Except maybe Gowasu, since Goku makes for some great GodTube material.

Frieza can be useful if, when he inevitably ices Frost or maybe Toppo to trigger Jiren into doing something, proves you can get away with murder if its flashy and the Zen-Os think what you did was cool. Just show that the rules of the Tournament don't matter and really crank up the tension to maybe even slightly exciting.

And if that's how Jiren's personality is, give him motivation or just an excuse to not care and be as lethal and brutal as possible in order to secure victory swiftly. Which, if it actually proves Jiren is a threat that pushes goku to his limits, could justify and give a little credibility to Goku just pulling out a new stronger form that is him pushing himself further than ever before yet again. A very easy turn of events to lead up to your hour long special, Toei.

I wonder if one of the shittier GoDs secretly gave one of their fighters a little charge of Hakai Ki like that assassin had? That sounds like an amazing way to get disqualified, but you'd basically be taking somebody with you (other universes don't know that Freiza and probably Goku are immune to it).

Just because Vegeta might be next doesn't mean he has to immediately get knocked out. It could still be a while

But knocking out Vegeta would actually build some modicum of tension in-so-far as he's actually a capable fighter compared to loving Tienshinwhogivesafuck. Vegeta Jobing specifically to make Jiren or any big rival of the arc look strong is loving obvious and old as hell, but when has that stopped Super from utilizing nostalgia and decades old call backs?

There's basically no way it's happening, but it'd be hilarious if Goku was the one who got knocked out next because he kept using up his stamina like a complete idiot. Having Vegeta and the rest desperately take up the slack while Goku can only helplessly watch would at least have some tension to it.

Even though I like Vegeta there's a part of me that really wants to see him screaming at everyone from the stands for the remainder because he gets knocked out next episode.

MonsterEnvy posted:

There is some speculation that Frost is going to turn it around and wack Vegeta with it.

For those wondering, the main theory (as I've seen it) is that in the preview Frost is glowing with the same aura as people that are using Mafuba in one of the shots.

Always remember that the former President was dumber than the dumbest person you've ever met by a wide margin

Not my favorite episode, and Tien didn't get quite the focus that Krillin did before his elimination, but I'm still digging this arc a lot.

I personally like how Beerus is gaining a bit of respect for everyone. Lots of "wow that's brave" and "that's a powerful technique" stuff. I'm gonna be heartbroken if/when Whis turns on him.

Wasn't there some speculation about Gohan getting some new transformation? What happened with that? Would be far more interesting than Goku, yet again, getting some new form.

This was not serious speculation just a "what if that was GOHAN with the new form" in the art clearly showing Goku's new form

I think it started before that when Gohan talked about pursuing a different path to power than increasingly powerful super saiyan transformations.

The path of not working hard and only training the day before he has to fight and getting magic powerups from older men.

Hey, it got him a better form than Super Saiyan 3.

Not like being better than Super Saiyan 3 is a big accomplishment, but you know, it's something.

People saw that pic of Goku, people want Gohan to do something cool, and Gohan has stated that he's looking for a different route than the Super Saiyan God stuff.

It seems like we *should* get some kind of alternate transformation coming up. He's presumably gotten back his Mystic/Ultimate form, yeah? He was fighting against SSB Goku before the tournament. So maybe he's unlocked some even deeper level of power. Ultimate Gohan II or something.

Dunno but Toriyama let it slip that that was the original idea for SSJBlue

They just realized that they had an up coming character with white hair, Zams and Merged Zams, and they changed it to blue.

White hair on anime characters who are not old is the edgiest possible hair color.
