Although I do prefer the anime tournament overall, I don't get why people like the anime's version of Frost so much more. He has the lamest, most bland backstory a villain could have. There's no reason to care about his history at all outside of the initial drama, which laste all of... was it 2 or 3 episodes?

He's basically just a convenient way of introducing Freeza to the cast without actually adding Freeza to the cast, he doesn't need a backstory.

GT wasn't that bad

He must feel awful. Being a God and no one respects him. Just sad.
And Zamasu thought he had it bad. Fuckin' edgy Kaios thinking about "Justice" and shit just because they got strong by chance.

I loved it. The powerscaling was dead on I thought. Why should anyone in universe 6 be nearly as strong as Goku and Vegeta? They have God Ki and we saw how much of a gap it is from regular ki when beerus flicked ss3 Goku. Unless the fighters of universe 6 were trained by Vado, why would they stand a chance?

I don't like this notion where if you don't have God ki you're worthless in battle. Golden Freeza and Hit have defied this notion, and I really hope we get more scenarios like that.
