It's not the best, but I enjoy it. Moro was a very cool villain in my opinion.

He couldn't even be bothered to explain Moro's origins, is there a more lazy and forgettable villain? Nope.
Was Zamasu a good morally grey villain? Because more often than not he comes across as a whiny teenager upset that the older Kai's: "Just don't get me, man. I'll show them. Someday I'll make a better Kai sanctuary, with a second me."
A murderous teenage psychopath with a messiah complex is still more interesting than overconfident space pirate warlord no.872
I guess you have a point. To be honest I haven't kept up with Super since Broly left theaters. The manga just hasn't interested me enough to get me to bother reading it. It all seems kind of "same old same old", but without any of the Toriyama weirdness to add life to it.
We need a Steve Simmons retranslation of the manga.

The monthly release schedule doesn’t suit Dragon Ball imo. Dragon Ball is like the perfect ADHD show and yet it takes a whole year to get through 2 battles at this pace, with no time for nuance or tension building.
