Piccolo falls off the stage after U7 deals with the invisible people, wiping out u4. U3 forms their megazord and fights goku for a couple of episodes before being presumably trounced Vegeta decides to pick a fight with Jiren.

I want Him to give a big lecture about how important it is to NOT LET YOUR GUARD DOWN UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, and then immediately get suckerpunched by an unseen assailant, off of the stage.

I think it’ll be funny if Jiren vs Vegeta results in either Jiren not even having to move to counter Vegeta or Vegeta unlocking Ultra Instinct’s attack aspect and making the gods freak out again

Goku unlocked Ultra Instinct by being so exhausted that his body's fight or flight response let him defend himself without thinking. Vegeta will naturally unlock Ultra Instinct by being so white-hot furious with abject rage that his body starts punching without his brain thinking

Yeah I mean something has to give right? SSB didn't cause Jiren to give a poo poo at all. Gonna be really loving boring if Vegeta goes and challenges Jiren, only to immediately job. Even Hit made it a fight.

Goku's battle with Jiren was a reimagining of his legendary battle with Frieza, Vegeta's battle should follow suit and have him bait Jiren into tanking the FINAL FLASH BLUE

Jiren will talk poo poo about Bulma, causing Vegeta to go into THAT'S MY BULMA Mode and put up a good fight.

His "Thats my Bulma!" form is simply an early version of Vegitas Ultra Instinct.

Either Vegeta is going to get UI or he's going to find some sort of weakness with Jiren. There has to be some sort of reason why he's just been on the sidelines most of the tournament. (Aside from just hating the idea of the ToP from the start, but that shouldn't have stopped him from protecting his teammates)

What's happening? Dri fu an only two? what is this?
Is this an avatar? I don't know rm dunk

The best thing would be if he also unlocks UI

There's no point for him to job against Jiren since we've already measured Jirens power against Goku and we know Goku is currently stronger than Vegeta. So hopefully Vegeta unlocks UI and then somewhere in the future him and Goku team up to beat on Jiren. Team fights are always cooler

Dodge UI Goku dodges Jiren's attacks as he swoops around to put him in a full nelson.

Aggro UI Vegeta uses Final Flash to blow up Jiren, hits Goku somehow, they both go off the ledge.

Final showdown is actually Vegeta V Freeza

Everything changes, Pit.
Even gods.

I'm still surprised we haven't had someone DQ'd for a kill. I figured it would happen on accident somewhere along the line, or as a desperation move to eliminate some big threat. I don't think it will happen to Jiren, and there's not really anyone else noteworthy left to do it to other than him.

After Frost got erased for trying to interfere I figured we'd see that consequence happen again with some other DQ but I guess not?

I'm not at all convinced Vegeta's going to get any form of UI at all this arc, his character and fighting style are completely antithetical with how Whis described UI back in RoF. if we were placing bets I'd go with Goku improving his UI technique enough in time to face Jiren and Vegeta just pushing SSB to its limits, but still probably getting dunked on by Jiren really hard after one good scene.

They foreshadowed Goku learning the technique, Whis said Vegeta's way too self-conscious in battle to let himself go and act instinctively. They just made a joke about it by having him trying to enter the state and failing before deciding do what he normally does instead.

Whis makes it sound like Vegeta and Goku will probably end up at the same place, but take different routes to get there. I like this idea because it’s less of just GOKU GETS POWER AND VEGETA FOLLOWS and more they take their own separate paths to their ultimate goal

Whis literally says Vegeta is behind Goku because he's too self-conscious in battle and overthinks things, whereas Goku's whole character is being an easygoing idiot-savant who goes with the flow and picks up things ridiculously quickly.

Ok? Like the Kashuno posted they don't have to do the exact same thing to get to the same place. Nothing you're saying says that he somehow can't achieve UI.
