If Universe 9 becoming an extension of the Frieza Force means all Trio De Dangers are expected to wear pants, then I'm all for it.

This is the last we see of Universe 9. Notice how everything is on fire, and their Supreme Kai and most of the fighters are frowning. It is safe to assume Universe 9 still sucks, and this shot may actually be them looking at the ruins of that destroyed city:

Dragonball is based on Journey to the West and Goku is basically Sun Wukong the Monkey King. An important part of Journey West is Sun Wukong loving with the Gods and eventually becoming a god himself:

Didn't Goku already kinda technically ascend to godhood back in Dragonball (when he could have been Kami)?

Yeah its not a straight copy, Dragonball is only really inspired by Journey West. But I found this part interesting, Sun Wukong when he is rampaging though heaven beats guy called Nezah. Who is Nezah? He's a "child like" big shot god whose official title is "Marshal of the Central Altar". Does that sound like anyone in Dragonball Super? Nezah is a big fan of rings incidentally.

I think they're supposed to be equal now with Prince of Sparkles topping out around the level of SSJB Kaioken X 20

Oh yeah, just apparently Goku and Freeza actually fighting together IS a dangerous loving thing.

Goku and Vegeta fighting together against Jiren when they were all fresh threw Jiren for a loop but never to the point where they could get much traction.

Goku and Freeza rocked Jiren a few times through superior teamwork. Clearly, Vegeta and Goku just don't hate each other enough

I feel like prince of all sparkles is more like the super saiyan 1.5 thing from the cell saga but who knows

jiren was pretty weak by the time goku and freeza fought him. they were surprisingly well coordinated tho for sure

it's pretty silly that jiren could have taken out everyone in the first 5 minutes of the tournament if he'd felt like it

honestly, i think it's that Frieza and Goku aren't rivals. if they're working together, there is absolutely no time for bullshit, they want to get poo poo done and then get far loving away from each other. meanwhile if Vegeta and Goku are working together, they're basically constantly dicking around because they actually like being around each other in spite of the poo poo they throw back and forth.

Even then, I don't think it's them liking being around each other so much that they each bring the best out of the other, in the most literal way

It's because Vegeta is a baby who can never let go of his ego enough to cooperate with his arch-rival!! even when the fate of the universe is at stake, Goku doesn't give a gently caress which is why he immediately breaks into perfectly synchronised moves with his greatest, evilest enemy when the need arises

Vegeta getting into it and cheering Kakarotto on in the second to last episode was incredibly cool and good

Frieza has ego but not overwhelming pride. He doesn't like to lose but he doesn't care much how he wins as long as he wins. He'll totally cheat or lie or bullshit if he has to and the only reason he didn't was because he was top dog. He wants to be top dog and if he's comfortable will ego it the gently caress up but if he's not he'll get a minion to gank you or blow up the planet. So it makes sense that he'd have no problem working with Goku because that is what lets him win. He won't like it but he'll do it.

Mystic Form allows him to access his full power without any flashy or tiring transformations. He could go Super Saiyan but it wouldn't actually do anything besides change his hair color.

It wasn't even supposed to be a transformation at first.

Blue Star posted:

The writers of DBS dont give a flying gently caress about him, thats what happened. And thats pretty much it. Same with Gohan and all the rest of the other characters who arent Goku or Vegeta. Maybe they kinda like 17, just a little bit.

Wow, this episode sucked. When Vegeta was falling out of the ring and suddenly stopped, my heart leapt because i thought it was because Freeza caught him and then maybe he and Vegeta would have a little moment. Failing that, maybe 17 was the one that caught him and the surprise was that 17 actually survived (and the gods and angels didn't know it because they can't sense his ki). But nope, instead we got literally nothing. Literally nothing caught Vegeta, his boot just got caught on the rocks. And then Vegeta has a generic "I refuse to lose!" moment and then LOL, he's out.

So now Goku has another new form and its basically Super Saiyan but with white hair, and this fight is going to play out like every other fight where Goku suddenly turns the tables because of a new transformation or power-up or whatever he pulls out of his rear end. How exciting. Maybe its a good thing for this series to just loving end. The writers havent done poo poo with any of the characters or ideas. I'm not even talking about Freeza, but all the characters. What a waste.

edited to add:

Like i understand that Goku is the shonen protagonist so of course it was always going to come down to him vs Jiren, and of course its going to involve a new power-up or some poo poo. But goddamn, they didn't do ANYTHING different, at all. Everything played out in the most boring way possible.

There’s an NBA rookie who had a similar bang and his twitter profile pic was Gohan. No coincidence.
