I swear to God that Black Frieza's color scheme had better be a black/gray exterior with his organic gem things being gold. But then, they probably want to keep the Destruction theme, so I'm guessing black and purple.

The various fan colorings/art I have seen of Black Frieza have him looking much better than the manga panels, toning down the black and adding gray to the white, as well as adding purple to his orb things. Also, in the reveal panel, he seems a bit off-model with how big the lower part of his face is. It seems like he's looking up, and yet he's facing the camera.

So, I think it looks fine. Ultra Ego also had a really goofy reveal for some reason but it looks fine later on.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

If a guy made it through his life named Robin, I think his daughter could handle something like Videl. Heck, it's close enough to a formerly posh hair stylist name. Most people probably wouldn't even realize it's from DB.

I still feel like an upcoming plot is Beerus being an rear end and saying that since these two don’t want the Destroyer job, someone who is stronger than they are does

Saw Super hero. It was like they slightly condensed a mini arc in the anime and it rules. Shockingly great animation. The shift to 3d actually was a boon because they had to slow down fights just a little so there's a lot more choreography in fights and less teleport punch flurry stuff. lot of amazing character bits. Overall enjoyed it even more than Broly. I'm glad super has leaned into the goof goof bullshit of original Dragon Ball.

I always felt sorry for Android 19, Gero could have made him look like anything but decided that weird clown was the perfect choice.

I wonder if the manga is subtly side stepping power levels by keeping things ambiguous with how strong Beerus is and making it down to skill/abilities like with all the ultra instinct/ego poo poo.

Like the logic of the "strongest in the universe" (except for anyone in some weird pocket dimension), would imply stronger than Beerus too.

I mean typical power level creep would have put Goku and Vegeta ahead of Beerus after they went SSJB or whatever. Never mind the other transformations after that.

Unless this whole other dimension thing is a way of copping out and it'll be revealed that Beerus' planet is actually in another dimension technically or something.

The whole power dynamic of the series changes if Frieza now dwarves Beerus.

Was it the anime or Manga where Frieza survived destruction power or whatever it's called?

The 2 balls dragon specifically said "strongest apart from the gods".

A switch to techniques, skills and quirky fighting styles instead of pure punch power is undeniably a good thing tho.

It would be, if they ever actually did that - neither of the movies do it, and the manga continually goes out of its way to poo poo on anything resembling progress.

I don't remember if it happened in the manga but it definitely happened in the anime, once before the tournament of power (when some grunt from another universe tried to assassinate him with destruction energy) and again towards the end (when Toppo became a god of destruction).

The dog assassin threw destruction energy at Freeza who just took it and then revealed he can easily handle that poo poo, he then threw it at Goku who would have died without Beerus coming in to save him.

It was a pretty cool scene.
