Ok.... why is everyone putting SSJRose Black and SSJB Vegeta in the same league? I mean wasnt it obvious as hell that Black wanted them to powerup more since he had a major boost again? I mean why would he want Vegeta and Goku to get angry and get more power if Vegeta was on par with him? :crazy: and why are people putting Super Trunks above a SSJB or on par with it? I mean yes sure Goku got defeated but Goku was able to solo both Black and Zamasu at the same time without them getting a single clean hit on him, whereas against Super Trunks he was getting fcked up and with Vegeta, Zamasu was able to land a hit, while Goku had a giant ass hole in his chest, I see that as the only reason as to how Black was able to down Goku because he already had that injury, one small push would have K.O'd him.

Coming back to this thread after a multi-month absence and just scrolling through the last page with no context to anything is such a joy.

"Nuh uh, Super Duper Dandelion Purple (true power)(power up 2)(kaio-ken)(Potara)(early)(scouter) is clearly >>>> Mega Ultra ZakaZaka! (holding back)(power up 3)(Red Saga)(timeline 6)(enraged)"

He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.
It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke
Herms wrote:The fact that the ridiculous power inflation is presented so earnestly makes me just roll my eyes and snicker. Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

It's not like Black was letting him beat him around on purpose. He was clearly overpowered and Black was surprised by how strong he'd gotten. Zamasu was also surprised that Vegeta was overwhelming Black.

Well Super Trunks isn't as strong as current SSJB Vegeta (and probably Goku) but he's certainly above that level from when say they were first SSJB against Golden Frieza.

Super Trunks would kick Golden Frieza's ass surely? That'd make him SSJB level. He was able to hold his own against them and push Black back afterall. But no I don't think he's as strong as Goku and Vegeta at the moment no.

Golden Freeza was well above Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Goku, especially in Super, and we have no point of reference if Goku and Vegeta surpassed him. And it isn't like Trunks did any real damaged to Black. Also, Black more-or-less regains his advantage by the end of his fight with Vegeta.

I'm talking about after Black got the boost from the beat down he got, before it yeah he was stronger than Vegeta, but now he's on top again, theres a reason why Black wants Goku and Vegeta to get angry and get a boost.

He was above them but Goku was still able to hang in there for quite a while at first. In the end he was beaten but just in the same way that Black initially beat Goku and Vegeta and they'd had about an extra four years to train since then.

SSJR Black should be above Golden Frieza even at his first appearance. Super Trunks was able to hold his and overpower Black even after he'd powered up further from Goku beating on him.
I'm talking about after Black got the boost from the beat down he got
Oh well Scythe Black could be above him but he never really fought. He could still be weaker than Vegeta, as strong, stronger. I don't suppose we'll ever know now though.

Freeza lost because his endurance tanked. If he kept as strong as he was to beginning to end, Goku would have lost in a straight fight. Black beat Goku and Vegeta by overpowering them and improving. And even with four years of training, we still have no reference if they surpassed Golden Freeza, so you can't say Trunks as he is now can wreck him. Especially when Trunks did no real damaged to Black despite getting a giant power jump and Black mocked him the entire time. Black never saw Trunks as a threat. ever.

From things stand, Black had the advantage in the end since he could create clones that could hurt Vegeta, which shouldn't have happened if Vegeta was well above Black. Unless you think the clones are stronger than Vegeta.

Like I said, theres a reason why Black wanted Vegeta and Goku to get angry, its because he has surpassed them again, dont tell me you dont find it weird why Black would want Vegeta to power up if they were still close in power right? thats the bad part of it all, Black hasnt even lift a finger and they couldnt even get pass some clones, its Black's new gained power from the zenkai, why would we not add it up as him having it proves that he's superior to both Goku and Vegeta.

I was only referring to their fight from before his endurance tanked. Before that Frieza was stronger but Goku was able to put up a worthwhile fight at first. He wasn't completely bowled over.

We don't know how Goku and Vegeta compare to Golden Frieza at the start of this saga but they were stronger than back then. In the Copy Water saga Goku said that Vegeta had got even stronger and that would be just from since the Tournament.

Black beat Goku quicker and easier than what Golden Frieza did which should make Black comfortably stronger as he did so against a stronger Goku.

So for Trunks to overpower an even stronger Black than that then he's gotta be stronger than Golden Frieza too. He did damage him somewhat because he said he'd get a bruise from it. I wouldn't say he was really any less hurt than any attacks he'd received before hand.

Goku was blown away by Freeza in Super. It was in the movie that Goku was still performing decently. And they got stronger. Surpassing Golden Freeza stronger is only a guess.

Black said he 'could' get a bruise from Trunks' all or nothing attack. As far as we know Trunks may be Golden Freeza, but it wouldn't be a shut out.

He wasn't that blown away. They were pretty much on par here and this was the start of the fight and it's not like Frieza was hardly trying, he was clearly putting in a lot of effort in that blast.

Then when compared to Goku vs Black the first time and Black had him on the ground in no time at all.

By the middle of the fight, Freeza was beating Goku around like a punching bag. Black had Goku on the ground, but Goku was barely hurt.

My updated list for this arc:
Merged Zamasu isn't included, because we haven't seen him in action to compare him with Beerus, Whis, etc.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

How strong would Black's clones be? They're like the opposite of Botamo in a way. Low durability, but powerful enough to fight with 2 SSJBs.

I would rank like this:

1) Zen'ou = No scale, he is in the top
2) Grand Priest = I think, like in the bible, he would be an Arcangel...So, his power would go from 18-22. And he is 20;
3) Angels. Like Whis and Vados. They are below the Grand Priest. Their power would go from 13-17. So Whis could be 15, and Vados 15,5. And the other angels would be scaled between 13-17;
4) Zen'ou guards = They would be below regular angels. I'd put them in 12 each...When Zen'o appeared, Whis and Vados were like in the same hierarchy. So, I think Zen'o needs two of them because a single one is weaker than a regular angel. And he also have the Grand Priest. But the guards are stronger than gods of destructions, for sure;
6) Zamasu fused: I'm betting he would be 11 right now. A little above Beerus, but below Zen'ou guards, and angels...
5) Gods of Destructions. I'd scale them as (8-11). Beerus is 10, but I think he is the strongest off all gods of destructions (like Zamasu said). Champa is 9,5;
6) Vegeta SSJB/Goku Black...Vegeta improved, but Black improved too after get his punisment...They would be 9 now;
7) Goku SSB + Kaioken x10 would be 8,5 only for a little time.
8) Hitto...He would be 8,4
9) Super Trunks would be 8
10) Goku SSB would be 7,5
11) Golden Freeza would be 7
Vados Sama!

Serious Zamasu is unable to damage Goku SSBLUE in the 2 Last épisodes.
However, just after Black and him are really confident about Trunks to be killed very fast by Zamasu.
Add the fact than Black prefer renforce Goku and Vegeta's power with Trunks death and not the contrary !
Another confirmation that Trunks isn't SSBLUE level.
And the Preview say Trunks need 2 Senzus to fight on par with Goku and Vegeta.

So now, i would say :
Beerus 10
Merged Zamasu 9,6
Black SSROSÉ 8,4
Vegeta SSBLUE 8,3
Goku SSBLUE 8,2
Hitto 8
Golden Frieza 7,8
Super Trunks 5
Zamasu 3,6
Vegetto SS/Vegeta Rage 0,85
Goku SS3 (BOG) 0,75
Gohan Ultimate/Gotenks 0,60

Well in the last episode Trunks said something about being able to handle Zamasu if it were just him but them Black made a comment about how Zamasu had probably dealt with them so he thought he could handle Trunks.
And the Preview say Trunks need 2 Senzus to fight on par with Goku and Vegeta.
Where's this from?
