I hope Jiren loses and Toppo roasts him right back.

they should have just ripped off the dark tournament from yu yu hakusho. Teams of five have their warriors fight on on one until one teams eliminated. It'd be a lot easier not to gently caress that up.

It'd be a lot easier not to gently caress that up. Considering how this arc has been far better than the time Super did that (you know, against Champa), I beg to disagree. At least here it's the 17 Show ft. Goku and Vegeta (with notable appearances by Freeza, Krillin, Roshi, Piccolo and a dishonourable mention to Gohan) instead of the Goku and Vegeta Show.

Black August posted:Tournament of Power, but it's the entire anime in length, kept fresh by the Zen-chans making major/minor rules and format changes on the fly to get every mortal gradually wound up into a complete hysterical soul-testing frenzy as they are forced to fight at the whim of bored kids who loves dumb ideas Remember when we were all optimistic that there was going to be a twist in the middle or near the end of the tournament, like how Frieza was going to hijack the tournament or that they'll all have to fight Grande Padre? Those were good times, huh? eonwe posted:Toppo threw away his idea of justice which was something he held dear in order to survive. He isn't evil, Jiren is just disappointed that he cast it aside, and in particular that he lost so he cast it aside for nothing. Jiren is an idiot. It bugs me that Toppo is supposedly in the wrong here for throwing his ideals away for a power-up considering the stakes of this tournament. If your universe is in danger of being erased, you'd want to try anything and everything just to survive. It's really weak that the show didn't really explore Toppo's side that much.

It does make me wonder why they added in the nefarious smirk of U9's Angel, or Goku glaring up at Grand Padre as he looked down at him in a smug/assholish way. And then nothing like that ever happens again. I wonder when they found out about the show going on hiatus? I wonder if they had to scrap any plans/rush through some things when they found out?

Toppo's justice is always secondary to the wellbeing of the people in his universe, and he never gave up on that ideal at all. He ultimately serves the lives of charges in his trust. Jiren is more "let justice be done though the heavens fall", and would never compromise even if it meant all the people he has a supposed duty to protect are erased. It's simple deontology vs teleology but I don't think Toppo's side was given fair credit.

Like when you accidentally laugh during a funeral.

If he just took his giant Lorax hands and flung the mostly-dead Frieza out of the ring, rather than taking his sweet time Gohaning him, then that would've made this 2-3 instead of 1-4. Then again, Jiren could've helped his bud out rather than wasting time fighting a guy he expressly gives no fucks about.

Bergamo is a man who came from poverty, survived only due to sticking to his loved family, and risked his life to save every Universe from the evil Son Goku, showing love even for the worst of the worst places to live that is his own Universe 9. Bergamo is more of a hero than the Pride Troopers.

amigolupus posted:Jiren is an idiot. This really feels like one of those things where, if you have to ask why, you're never going to know. Ultimately, it's a question if survival is the greatest good, something the show already pretty much rejected out of hand already. 'sides. It's shonen. Dudes getting killed for their principles are almost always shown to be noble and heroic, whereas making decisions against them to save your own rear end is bad, and making those decisions to save someone else is usually a tragic failure.

Shinjobi posted:Didn't want Gohan to become a "main" character again. I never expected him to make it anywhere further than the final four, if that. He couldn't even accomplish that. The more I think about it, I think they should have kept Gohan around and have him double KO with Toppo instead of Dyspo. Stay a while so I can regale you with dumb fanfic ideas. 17 already berated Gohan so Gohan feels the need to prove himself when Toppo breaks 17 like a twig and rings him out so we see he's actually gone way too far compared to just beating Frieza up (which he does too). Gohan loves him some justice and is fully aware about the problems of embracing grotesque displays of power where you lose your humanity and self control, so it would make for a more or as interesting foil against Toppo than Vegeta. Toppo bashes him around but like Vegeta Gohan embraces love to stand up against Toppo and like Vegeta calls him out on abandoning his principles, at which point he does something clever to remove them both from the ring that exploits Toppo's single minded bloodlust, thereby giving something cooler for Gohan to do than taking out Dyspo, making Toppo's hypocrisy and decisions more effective and you can still have most of the other stuff play out like normal.

Stallion Cabana posted:Their long con of protecting their universe and being well respected heroes only to reveal to a bunch of random people from other universes that no, they're actually all assholes has gone off without a hitch. It's perfect. Despite the episodes of set up of them stopping a planet destroying monster and the Commander risking his life to save a kitten stuck in some power lines for no profit, that was clearly all a cunning ruse by the Troopers to make people think they're good, when actually they're all jerks who hate each other. Even the line about Jiren and Toppo being best friends was a cunning ruse to people they'd never met to make them think the Pride Troopers were honorable, all to get the advantage they'd need to take down the other universes, but thankfully Universe 7 saw through their tricks and knew they were the villains they truly are. Now Goku, Vegeta, 17, and Frezia just have to defeat this single powerful evil warrior, Jiren, and they can save their universe. We really weren't shown enough of U11 to get much of an impression of them. Their Supreme Kai was shown to be an arrogant piece of poo poo, from the get-go. Belmod's a bit more tactful but shares the same arrogance. There was no clever reveal. Those were characters we were clearly set up to hate and be okay with seeing erased. Toppo was more characterized than the other characters from the universe. I definitely got the sense that he was a really great guy, just doing what he can. He was the only person in U11 that seemed to take the possibility of losing the tournament seriously. The look of existential dread on his face while he was sitting at the bar, realizing he couldn't beat Goku... worrying that his universe was going to be erased, really got to me. As well as the look on his face when he realized he bit off more than he could chew with Vegeta. I just feel sorry for the guy. He got cheesed by Frieza, beaten by the guy who never wins anything, and now probably is going to get erased because his universe's Kai was an rear end in a top hat.
