Out of context, that sounds all well and good, doesn't it? However, when this was said, both Zamasu's already knew about SSB and were actively fighting against it, which makes your interpretation that remark pretty nonsensical in-context. Zamasu wouldn't say "Pink must be what comes after SSG unless Blue", which they were actively fighting against, didn't surpass SSG. That's a continuity error.
Maybe you are forgetting that SS forms are multipliers... if base Black is stronger than base Vegeta, SSR Black would be stronger than SSB Vegeta even in case SSRosè and SSBlue have the same exact multiplier. And I never said it's the "same exact" multiplier, but that probably it's similar.

Maybe you are asking how can Zamasu know about the Red form?

It's simple logic, really. I don't understand why he doesn't understand it, so elaboration would be appreciated.
"So when a god surpasses Super Saiyan God, they become light pink, rather than blue?!" Where is the confusion and continuity error?
Both Rosé and Blue surpasses God, but Rosé is speculated to be pink, because it's a god achieving it.

    Looks really subpar compared to what's in the chapter. The characters are much less expressive and the art is much less vibrant. Competently drawn, to be sure, but lacks that certain je ne sais quoi.

    That's what the chapter says that. It's a parallel form to Blue, but because a god is using the form instead of a regular saiyan, it's pink instead of blue.

      I like his SSRose much better than Toyo's.

      I don't understand how you came to this conclusion. "So when a God surpasses Super Saiyan God, they turn pink instead of blue?" I don't see how this statement could be interpreted as SSRose > SSBlue, it clearly suggests that since Black is a God he turns pink rather than blue like mortals.

      This might be out of the blue, but I never really liked the way Toyo draws Goku's base hairstyle and facial expressions. It looks so... mediocre(?), in comparison to how Toriyama and a handful of the artists over at Toei often draw him.

      I much prefer the appearance of Young Jijii's take on Goku.[spoiler]Image[/spoiler]

      I think they both failed at drawing that transformation. It just does not appeal to me other than the anime version.

      I assume you're talking about Rose? If so, I agree. I believe the transformation ever really worked well in the anime because of how visually appealing it was (at times). Toyo's version of Rose is definitely an interesting take on it though, IMHO.

      It's quite the opposite fot me, the anime version never grew on me, but the manga version looks pretty decent..

      I love both versions tbh.Episode 56 in general is my absolute favourite from Super & chapter 20 is my favourite chapter so far.Each one is pretty good in its own way.

      I just reread this chapter here my thoughts on it
        -this is the best chapter of The ft arc after the mediocre chapter 17 18 and average 16 this one is impressive the Same could be applied with chapter 14 and 15
          -i love Goku black and zamasu dynamic and I love the fact black is obsessed with pain to exploit the zenkai my favorite trait of him is here pain make him stronger and SS rose man thank Toyo and toei for making that form epic
            - I'm also impressed that toyotaro made zamasu a badass like seriously burning the senzu bag and using his telekinesis to paralise Goku that is just awesome
              -and this chapter has tension something that some of the other chapter are lacking off like chapter 19
                -trunks and Mai did something cool which I appreciate through is BS that ft trunks was damaging Goku black
                  - and I love the fact that Goku come up with a strategy to stop Goku black and zamasu which is a cool little detail
                    and now the things that I don't like from this chapter - trunks damaging SS rose black
                      -I'm mixed about the mafuba
                        -goku powered down in to ss1 for no reason i hate that scene
                          overall ,this chapter is a 8/10

                          A good chapter overall but two things bothered me.

                          The first was that SSJ Black was equal and able to do damage to Vegeta Blue. That was almost as bad as Base Black withstanding SSB Vegeta in the anime. I'm sure they did to make Black look menacing and strong, but still it felt weird, to me atleast.

                          The second part, where Goku for some unknown reason turned from Blue to Blonde. Why ?

                          Apart from those two i enjoyed this chapter. Toyataro's SSJ Rose was on fantastic.

                          And Zamasu thought he had it bad. Fuckin' edgy Kaios thinking about "Justice" and shit just because they got strong by chance.

                          Yeah, but that's kinda stupid considering that Vegeta was pummelled by Black at the same time.

                          Vegeta didn't want help, which Goku respects, and Goku still had senzu so he wasn't worried.
                          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.
