In the next issue of the DBS manga
The GoD's all try to team up on Beerus and whoop him and he dodges them easily and looks to be the strongest of them. It's not clear though if Champa is on Beerus' side from the poo poo scans

One smart thing Super did was low key confirm who the strongest GoD was, by making Fishman smart enough NOT to fall for the Grand Priest's dumb idea

Maybe come up with new characters instead of reincarnating the entire dead cast of DBZ

Ideally this would be the case but so far a lot of the new characters kinda suck LOL

Hit = lame
Cabba = lame
Frost = lame
Jiren = poo poo

A few are decent and have potential, or at least fun to watch (Caulifaa, Kale, Toppo, some of the other universe fighters like Ribrririane, Champa, Vados, the high priest, etc). But theyve been bringing back characters like 17, Freeza, and doing interesting things with them, so bringing back other old characters isnt out of the question. I'd rather see Nappa and Raditz and the Ginyu Force than Hit or Cabba, to be honest.

I'll admit a lot of the super characters wouldn't be super interesting, but I really want them to put in some variation of Zamasu, whether it be immortal Zamasu, Goku Black, fused Zamasu, or hell even spooky cloudgas Zamasu.

Edit: I was not at all paying attention to what thread I was currently in so I assumed the conversation was about Figherz, please forgive my sudden accidental change in topic.

Incidentally, green normal Zamasu is being added to XV2 as a mentor along with Buuhan and Dabura (unsure if playable or mentors)

That just confirms he's the least dumb of the four Destroyers who were around at the point, it says nothing about power levels.

Edit: Also if that Super manga spoiler is true that would be pretty dumb.

FighterZ story mode is an all-new story about the Androids. It has a new character in it, who is of course an android, Android 21, designed by Toriyama.

Also Yamcha and Tenshinhan are in.

I'm mostly being facetious but not entirely. She's got a similar hair color to 16 and she brought him back for SOME reason. If he's her brother or son, that'd explain it.


Also one day some bio-mechanical monstrosity is going to tear itself up from the bowels of the Earth and proclaim itself to be Doctor Gero's answer to Zeno

21 is clearly Gero's wife who brought Lapis and Lazuli from a previous marriage with her

Android 21 looks cool and I hope the first thing she does is impale Yamcha like Gero did.

Yeah it is kind of dumb if Beerus is just completely superior to every other GoD, especially every other GoD put together. If that's the case it also kind of makes the thing a couple of chapters ago make sense when you look at the Goku love in the manga; Beerus clowning on Vegeta and by proxy Goku easily doesn't mean as much when he clowns on every other GoD at the same time too.

Gene may not be the strongest but there's a definite OPM thing going on with him in his backstory; he's done such a good job eliminating threats to his Supreme Kai's plans for the universe that no more are rising up, ever, and he's super loving bored; it's hard to say if he didn't fight because he was both sure he was going to win and he knew the Grand Priest's plan, or he's just canny enough to not get suckered into an obvious bait, but regardless that shows he's smart enough to not let his boredom trick him into getting played.

Whis has said there are some that Beerus has never beaten and one that he's lost to, Beerus argues that it was just an arm wrestling match that he lost, not a real fight.

Then Whis either says 'And in that God's dimension is a mortal even stronger then the God' or 'And there are some mortals that are even stronger then their Gods.'

You shouldn't think too hard about the power levels in the manga. Remember that everything that happens in the manga is ultimately to shill Goku, Beerus needs to be the strongest so Goku is still possibly stronger than every God so he's not too low on the power rankings.

He'll still surpass Beerus eventually, of course, because manga Goku.
