Wait a second, that last shot is re-used from 116.
Just 116? I think I saw this shot way before that episode, probably on early Super or the movies?
Power levels are not just big numbers:

Yeah, they'd probably do something like not have Vegeta job once in this tournament and instead have Goku job- OH wait, they did.
When Super apparently shoves Goku down our throats:

If they didn't have balls, FT Trunks arc would have had a happy ending.
A world without Dragon Ball is just meh.

No, that shot is definitely original to 116.

It was never used anywhere else before there.

There are shots that have Goku in a similar pose though.

[spoiler]What the hell!

This episode was awesome, to bad that Zeno destroyed the live stream from where I was watching the episode, right when Goku started to transform.[/spoiler]

Oh ok. I won’t argue on that. I'm neutral on that

I mean, one piece fans shit on Toei, sailor moon fans shit on Toei, toriko fans shit on toei, world trigger fans shit on toei and dragon Ball fans are no exception.


You want to defend them against all of this but episodes like this make it so damn hard to.



This is the final fight, super ends in 2 episodes, you can't recycle like this and expect many to be ok with it.

I didn't like this episode. Despite the hype, it still felt worse than your average Z fight. It felt like more prolonging just so it could end on Blanco.

I mean uhh, what's supposed to be impressive about it again? Boring dialogue, Jiren still lacks personality and now he's getting played with at that.

Goku Time ver. Super
