Thry cpuod probably take Dyspi but I think Toppo is too much.

Jiren>Goku>Hit>Toppo I would say.

So Toppo stronger than Freeza and Vegeta, huh?

I don't think so. If Vegeta's not even strong enough to take on Toppo, then I'll be sorely disappointed. Even so, Freeza and Vegeta working together should be plenty for Toppo and Dyspo. Either of them would trash Dyspo almost immediately, and then the two of them would be free to overwhelm Toppo, I should hope. Dyspo is barely SSG level. Both Vegeta and Golden Freeza are much, much stronger and faster than that.

Oh man, that'd actually be a great idea for an episode!

Toppo proving to be too much for Golden Freeza or SSB Vegeta to take on individually, thus forcing them to work together! The tension between the two would be enough to crack omniverses!

Hmm I'm not to sure about that. It took ssb kaioken goku to fight true golden freeza. And ssb kaioken goku was fighting evenly with toppo at the exhibition match. So I would say if anything freeza = toppo.

As for vegeta we know that his ssb is stronger than goku's ssb as of the goku black arc. Not sure what their power is in relation to each other now though.

Plus we know that super's power scaling is wonky.

What are you talking about? True Golden Freeza was exactly equal to SSB Goku, not with Kaio-ken.

Anyone else have a feeling that Freeza might eliminate Vegeta next episode setting Cabba off? Like Vegeta saves Cabba, and Freeza sees his chance?

It makes even less sense considering Vados just had this massive monologue about how Hit was content with just keeping Jiren in place. To me, it just seemed like they really wanted to get Hit eliminated this episode for some reason.

Also, was it just me, or did Hits fight with Jiren this episode feel like an inferior lift off ofthis fight from Hokuto No Ken, they both basically follow the same formula, the difference being HNK did a better job at injecting emotion and personality into the fight.
I feel as if Toriyama had to have read some HNK recently, because this whole business is starting to kind of feel like a weaksauce version of Kenshiro and Raoh's conflict. Even Ultra Instinct comes of as a poor man's Muso Tensei. I know it's all based in real martial arts concepts, but between that and Jiren trying his best to have Roah status in Super, the HNK vibe is too strong.

**sidenote, but I'm starting to think I'd like Jiren more if he had a horse and a cape.
Jiren: Son Goku...I shall defeat you without stepping off my horse. I will seize the throne of the Heavens for myself.

I think I can dig it.

Jiren loses: Make no mistake....Jiren needs no help erasing himself! "Charges Aura and erases himself"
lmao! Might as well just go full HnK!

I just rewatched the scene and yeah you are right. None the less, I believe freeza could match up with toppo. As a matter of fact i'll bet you that one of the last fights will be freeza fighting toppo. The "emperor of evil" versuses the "warrior of justice"!

It's possible. The question must be asked, what is the point of Vegeta being in the tournament now? He won't be fighting Jiren since he's FAR FAR FAR FAR outclassed by him, and his rematch with Hit grinded to a halt after Hit was just eliminated in this episode, so is there a reason for him to stick around now? I'm saying all of this from a writing perspective of course. I wouldn't be surprised if he was eliminated soon, but I don't think it'll be by Freeza. I don't think Freeza would benefit by betraying U7 at the moment. It seems his #1 priority is learning Ultra Instinct and avoiding Jiren, and eliminating Vegeta wouldn't help with that.

He could fight Toppo, but I feel like they'd reserve that spot for Freeza given Toppo stands for all that is just and Freeza... well he's just an evil asshole.

I think it would be wonderfully ironic and a refreshing contrast to Vegeta's usual role of the resident Worf if he ended up winning the tournament by avoiding reckless fights with the big guns and racking up points by taking out the fodder.

Vegeta and Freeza have no chance against Toppo.

SSB Kaioken Goku = Toppo, and that's stronger than both Vegeta and Freeza. Maybe if they worked together though.

Well, they are already kinda of doing that, but instead of Jiren being the one talking himself up, Toppo's really been doing all the talking for him.

I would like it if Jiren said to some random mook...

Jiren: If you can't even penetrate my aura, then you are too weak to pose even the slightest challenge for me.

With that logic everyone but Goku should be eliminated from U7 then. What's the point of Gohan, Piccolo, the Androids? Freeza too he even said it himself he's no match for Jiren.

This is why it bugs me that Jiren is being pushed as the traditional "final boss" character of the arc. Yeah he's the strongest character there and a real problem if he goes on the attack, but he's just one guy and it's not like beating him wins the tournament. There's still everyone else to contend with, and with the kind of booking Jiren is getting the person who beats him will probably be gassed out and vulnerable to the weaker warriors.

That is primarily why I like it! Like you said it is like he is like the "final boss" but beating him doesn't mean you win, I think that is great it is a different spin on things. Whoever knocks Jiren out will actually be doing all the remaining fighters a favour not just their universe, so if someone beats Jiren it could end up working against them. For example hypothetically Cabba beats Jiren then U7 come in and wreck house on U6 all of Cabba's hard work in beating Jiren would be undone just like that.

He failed to even do that. Poor Hit. :P
Interesting. So they still have that excuse for Hit jobbing. Okay, gotcha.
Nono.

Hit tried his hardest and failed. He even says "The moment I couldnt kill him with one hit I knew I had no chance" or something extremely similar.
He didn't say kill.

That's why I asked. Just doesn't seem like he'd be using his kill moves.

I don't respect Toei's writing ability, but throwing Hit completely under the bus doesn't seem like something a rational writer would do given all the episodes spent establishing him.

Hit did a lot better than I expected when you look at the steaming dump Jiren took on 20x Kaioken Goku. It didn't amount to anything in the end but he gave it a good effort.

Jiren going into "I'm too good for this" mode at the end really pissed me off. He's just about everything I loathe about Brock Lesnar realized as an anime character. Guess he's too important to actually put in work outside PPVs too. :x

There's no real proof of that since with Blue alone, Goku outpaced Toppo who couldn't even touch him. And this is Goku after he fought someone while Toppo was fresh.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.
