Nope. People seem to forget that the original Super Saiyan God didn't keep his power and that Goku keeping it was surprising.

Whats Vegeta's deal from the movies then? The movies are what kept the whole SSGod backstory ditched by the Super anime and manga and the film concludes with Vegeta saying he wants to do the ritual again to become a God. There's no mention of him training with Whis by himself first, leaving us to assume Goku and Vegeta kept the power because they're good at fighting. The original SSGod probably wasn't, if anything, he and his small party were closer to Tarble in terms of personality/fighting prowess.
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.

Vegeta thing from the movies works with Super's kind of but not really explanation for how Vegeta obtained SSGSS.

The reason they brought Future Trunks back was to ask Goku and Vegeta for help against an opponent as powerful as Goku and Vegeta. It just sounds too roundabout for them to have Future Trunks go back and ask Goku and Vegeta for help, only to have Future Trunks eventually become strong enough and be the one to defeat Black. Either Goku or Vegeta will defeat Black and I hope it's Vegeta
It won't be Vegeta, I can see it with my future vision. Unfortunately, it's a little blurry, so I can't tell if Goku or Trunks wins, but I'm rooting for them to fight together.
Did you forget about Zamasu ? I doubt Goku will be able to defeat him and Black so Vegeta will likely get one of them.
I still have a feeling that it'll be a team effort.

It's seems quite comical.
But isn't at all.

Try to part a BLUE Trunks from this one.

There's no point for the ritual when Vegeta became a SSJB without the ritual of SSJG. Just have Future Trunks train with Whis off-screen for a few months and he's set.

With ritual Trunks saves himself a lot of training. He'd shave off month's by using the ritual as he'd already be almost at the SSJB level.

True. But there's no guarantee that Future Trunks will be able to absorb the power of the Super Saiyan God power like Goku did before it expired. I mean, he's not a fighting genius like Goku is.

As much as it would make a lot of sense for Trunks to get some sort of god power-up & standing a better chance against are new foes I honestly just don't see it happening. I feel it's a repeat of GT with SSJ4, a Goku & Vegeta exclusive. Not to mention with both Goku & Vegeta going with bluper more as the story goes on they gotta have the classic SSJ somewhere in there for some reason, right? And seeing as Gohan ain't gonna be showing his face around anytime soon Trunks is the perfect replacement for the role.

That wouldn't work either, Trunks won't stick around forever... probably.

Bribe Whis to go into the ROSAT for a few hours to train Trunks with food. Boom, problem solved, Trunks can now spank Wheerus tier fighters no problem. He's already on par with Goku and Vegeta without a shred of God ki so I don't think I'm being a snarky cunt when I say he could probably one shot a potara of Beerus and Whis with God ki.

Wow, I was thinking exactly this a couple of nights ago before sleeping (yes, I do that... some people count sheeps, I do that), "What if they do the ritual with Trunks to help him become a Super Saiyan God?" That would be interesting to see.

And regarding the idea of them going to Salama in U6 to do it, I found it even more attractive. That would stretch this arc and I would really love that. They could find Hit there too. OMG, so many possibilities.

And SSJG Future Trunks would be awesome.

Who knows, maybe he could fill in Gohan's place in the next tournament when his world is fixed? Sorta like what they did with him in movie nine.

He is not on par with them at all.

It's pretty clear Zamasu is a worse fighter than Black to begin with and even Zamasu said "You can fight me as much as you want until you realize you are weak". He was letting Trunks hang in and get blows in order to show off his immortality.

As for Black he fought him for like 3 seconds before Goku traded opponents again knowing Trunks couldnt hang.

Then why didn't Trunks get sliced in half when he blocked Blacks ki blade meant to kill Goku and manage to overpower him during their brief blade lock? The last time Trunks used his sword an a lot stronger opponent it broke, this time it should've gotten sliced in half along with him. Hell, the fact Trunks didn't get vaporized when Blacks kamehameha hit him and Goku says even more that he's close to Goku's level. Cause that blast is primarily there to heavily damage Goku, meaning Trunks is close to him, if he's not, he would've died from the blast.

But he is that skilled. Whis even says he's potentially more skilled then Goku I believe. Also the whole half breeds having more potential, SSJ2 Hax, and going from SSJ lower than base Gohan to about his level in 3 years. Though they showed the anime movie version instead of the manga one.

Ahh I forgot about killing Zamasu. I honestly think Future Trunks will kill him. That'll be nice. Father and son killing some bad guys. Reminiscent of Gohan and ghost Goku killing Cell...And Bojack...And Broly the second time with Goten as well
"Gohan, let it go. It is not a sin to fight for the right cause. There are those who words alone will not reach. Cell is such a being. I know how you feel Gohan, you are gentle, you do not like to hurt. I know because I too have learned these feelings. But it is because you cherish life that you must protect it. Please drop your restraints. Protect the life I once loved. You have the strength, my scanners sensed it..." -Android 16
