Re: Jiren's power as of the Super Hero mvoie - My Take!

I blame Toei for bringing SSB Kaioken into the fray. All dialogue referencing Ultra Instinct was about how it's not a power-based transformation, even before the Tournament of Power. to be fair, Kaiohken in Super has never been a winning move except against Hit. Even then, he broke Goku's body and ...

Re: Jiren's power as of the Super Hero mvoie - My Take!

I've been saying for years that Goku and Vegeta hit a plateau and all these 'power gaps' at the god tiers are superficial. We knew that when they gained literally 0 power-ups from being in the hyperbolic time chamber for three years. It's nice to finally have dialogue that emphasizes this again. I b...

Re: UI was better looking in the TOP manga arc?

That’s just the SSG art with a different hair colour. Not a big point in its favour if you ask me. Personally, I like it. UI is an SSG recolor regardless, it's just either Toei's SSG or Toriyama's. https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/dragonball/images/8/8f/SSG_reveal_art.jpg Yes, Toei re-used the SSG...

Same. It matches Toriyama's art better.

Of the comics I've read... no

Re: I don't get why Goku doesn't learn Ultra Ego.

Couldn't the principles of Ultra Ego or Hakai be used defensively? Think ki neutralisation whenever it's used as projectiles or projectiles like the Katchin blocks. Goku wouldn't have to use it for the purpose of killing. The former suggestion you provided has only been demonstrated in the anime by...

Re: I don't get why Goku doesn't learn Ultra Ego.

Goku has an issue with permanently killing people which is why he only uses such moves as last resort. But UE isn't inherently lethal. No, but it does seem to be derived from Destruction, which as suggesting in the prior mentioned chapters is a technique Goku inherently bares some disdain for outsi...

Re: I don't get why Goku doesn't learn Ultra Ego.

To put it simply, Goku doesn't actually have interest in the technique of Destruction itself, and only used it on Zamasu as a last-resort. This is implied in the connection between the dialogue of chapter 15 and chapter 25.

Shueisha's animated adaptations, without fail and rarely without exception, are the only ones that get any merchandise. I've followed Naruto, One Piece and Bleach for years, and it's especially obvious when you look at Naruto and Bleach. That's not something you need a "source" for; the p...

“ Toyotaro's stuff isn't used outside the manga for licensing reasons.” Source. Because One Piece doesn’t have this issue.

I wish the anime and manga were more consistent with the strength thing. I also wish that people wouldn't say that Kakarot and Vegeta cannot get any stronger in their base forms. Huh? People say that? We literally have base Vegeta getting confirmed to get stronger in his base state in the Moro arc....
