Well, at least the prince of all Saiyans is about to kick him in the kidney. Before jobbing. I mean, it's Vegeta, jobbing is his eternal destiny.

Vegeta managed to land a solid hit on Jiren in SSB, that's definitely interesting. I have a feeling he's gonna put up a fight before ultimately jobbing. But I think Vegeta beats Toppo, but loses to a combo of Dyspo and Jiren

I like how the discussion isn't whether Vegeta will job, but how Vegeta will job.

Dont judge me, I design your manhole
I'm really glad the preview shows Vegeta getting in some good hits on Jiren instead of just making it another joke like his fight with Hit. He even has to guard against the Final Flash instead of just staring really hard at it.

showing someone that isn't goku getting in a real fight with jiren this early basically guarantees they're going out in the same episode

vegeta jobbing is inevitable but I'd think the same about any of the others in this situation as well

I see it as Frieza smashing Dyspo, Toppo beating 17 and Gohan, Jiren beating Vegeta but not ringing him out, Toppo losing to Frieza, Goku going up against Jiren and losing again, also not ringing out, Frieza taking on Jiren to buy time for Goku + Vegeta to recover for Vegetto UI


maybe.

Ribrianne broke it by smashing into it, though she bounced off in the process.

Episode was good. I hope Vegeta doesn't job. He won't win, but i'd like for him to stand his ground. Frieza is definitely going to make sure goku wishes him back.

The best outcome would be for Goku to sincerely mean to wish Frieza back but never get round to actually making the wish, as with King Kai

I just have this image in my head of Freeza hanging out on King Kai's planet, getting increasingly impatient.

"He said he'd wish me back, he promised!"
"Oh you poor, poor fool."

That episode was great, need to watch it again at some point. Right now Freeza and the dynamic he has with Goku is some of the best stuff Super has put out.

Steven doesn't want me watching him sleep anymore.
You guys are crazy! We saw the preview and Vegeta was STOMPING on Jiren. We don't know how strong Vegeta is, maybe he'll just win and everyone will just be all "huh well I didn't expect that to happen".

Joking aside, it would work really well as a story beat if they're building toward a grande padre or whatever fight. Jiren's set up as a perfect jobber; it'd explain why they haven't really given him any development.

And then once Vegeta beats Jiren, he can get wrecked on the real true final endboss.

I'm guessing it's going to play out much like Vegeta vs Perfect Cell, with Vegeta maybe giving a slightly better account of himself before jobbing

e: I'm all onboard for the 11th hour El Grande Padre plot twist shocker though

I hope Jiren, Goku and Vegeta agree to settle their differences, integrate Universe 11 into Universe 7 and then maybe even smooch.

Jiren would be too disgusted by Goku's amoral fight lust to ever kiss him

Jiren is gonna whoop U7's rear end and then ask the Doki Doki Zeno-sama Club if they're not entertained by this brutality.

I feel like it’s too late for Vegeta to job. Like, we are all well aware of how strong Jiren is. He kept up with UI, a thing the GoDs were even afraid of, and rocked Hit hard who beat on Vegeta last time they fought. Jobbing doesn’t really do anything now

It further reinforces Vegeta's place on the pecking order.

Vegeta getting bodied by a threat going all out is a good, and also basically the only, way they have establishing how powerful they really are because he's a consistent benchmark to beat.

And kicking goku, because he realizes that yes he hates saiyans, but without them he's got nothing to do.

Honestly, hanging around, being real nice to Goku, and letting his friends and family live in fear as they wait for the other shoe to drop, would be a very Freeza thing to do.

When Vegeta told Trunks that Freeza had a change of heart, he wasn't joking.

Edit: Freeza's shout during his finger beam blast alongside Goku / Gohan / Vegeta / 17 doing their "AHHHHHHH" was weird.

They're going to pull an "Invisible Man" from Baba's tournament and Krillin is going to grab Bulma, place her in front of Jiren's fist, killing her, and setting off Vegeta for the greatest "THAT'S MY BULMA!!!!" power-up ever.

Bet.
