She defeated Golden Freeza, she slapped Toppo and SSB Vegeta away and she defeated Anilaza. Yes, she is, no matter how incompetent Toyo is at portraying that strength during her scuffle with the Pride Troopers.
Toyotaro isn't incompetent. Kale's muscular form slows her down similar to SSJ grade 3. The pride troopers are able to predict her moves and get out of the way in time, and this is because of her decreased speed, not because Toyotaro made a mistake.

Tupper is not stronger than Kale. Kale is slow.

Where is that stated? They just say she's predictable, not that she's slow.

The mods locked the thread as a way to stop blind hatred coming from people who don't have proper context. You are the problem.

No, need to angry. I probably just misread it.

I thought he was saying that Tupper is stronger than SSJ Goku, Berserker Kale is stronger than Tupper, and both SSB Goku and Golden Frieza are both stronger than Berserker Kale.

Honestly I proabably just misinterpreted what the arrows meant. My bad :?

I've seen the tweet. He doesn't say she's slower, he says her attacks are easy to read. Those are two different things.

The tweet says that the line is a direct reference to Trunks from the cell saga. Trunks was too slow, thus why you can infer that Kale is too slow. Also, the tweet implies that this is a problem with her form, not that she's just bad at martial arts.

He's not. People are just trying to discredit the manga based on misinterpretations of some untranslated panels.

The issue here is that Kale still shouldn't be getting hurt, the fact she's a slow doesn't diminsh the fact her other attributes are still considerably higher than the people she's fighting, meaning she still shouldn't be getting hurt by them.

This is like tank being seriously damaged by regular infantry fire because it's not fast enough.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

Not only is she getting wailed on by 7 people of varying strengths, but her form is quickly exhausting and killing her.

    The power scale in the manga was already screwed when they decided to give Black a Super Saiyan form.

    This chapter is seriously awful and ruins the tournament. How can anyone defend the manga is beyond me.

      Oh look, a other person who dislikes the manga because they don't fundamentally understand it.

      Let me guess...
      -"Super Saiyan Black is fighting SSB Vegeta! Screw context, that's duuuuummmb.:
      -"Vegeta using SSG is duuummmb."
      -"I wanted to wait another 3 months for the fodder characters to get eliminated. Actually, if that happened I'd call the manga boring."

      I'm thinking about making a post to explain the powerscaling in the manga, so that people like you will stop your blind hatred.

      I'm curious too since they say she'll destroy herself but it seems like they're just overpowering her because she's slow.

      This is a perfect case study of why you shouldn't judge a manga that's not in a language you understand.

      I kind of have to point out that they weren't overpowering her like 1 on 1. They were all rapidly moving around her waiting for her guard to go down so that they could wait for the perfect opportunity to strike.

      I feel Kale was overpowered a bit, making Gohan having any sort of chance against ssj Kefla make no sense. Either that or ssj Kefla is barely stronger than Kale, or is maybe the same level with better speed and control, but even then Gohan shouldn't be above SSB or Golden Frieza. I guess we'll see next chapter, but it's being heavily implies he is about to do something.
