You literally JUST contradicted yourself

To be a murderer, you simply need a murder. To describe someone to only be nice when she wants something from someone, you're describing her as treating everybody that way.

You say that Caulifla is only nice to anyone when she wants something from them, yet state that she's treats Kale nice and cares for her.
When Super apparently shoves Goku down our throats:

TheMikado wrote:So the big news for me is that canonically it's inplying none of the Saiyans ever turned into real SSJs as if they are all some kind of false SSJ forms and Kale is the only one to achieve the "true" SSJ form. That's such an odd assumption for Vegeta to make in the middle of a battle for no apparent reason. Like what would make him draw that conclusion.

Anyway so basically, if what Vegeta is saying is true it official retcons all the SSJ forms as "false" SSJ. That's pretty amazing.
Paragus called Broly's form the "true Super Saiyan" once during the film it debuted in. Out-of-universe I'd chalk it up to another Broly throwback, although in-universe I'd say it's probably confirmation that her form is in fact U6's equivalent of Legendary Super Saiyan.

Goku did say she could possibly get 3 during the battle. I won't be surprised if she does.

3 would be useless due to the stamina issue, she might get Ikari like Trunks did, U6 NEEDS another Blue level guy so badly, Hit cant carry them all.

He did but he said she have to master ssj2 before achieving ssj3

Nothing screams of her getting plus ikari seemed to be trunks exclusive form and answer for blue

The fact that Vegeta called Kale's form the true form of a Saiyan made me think of something.

Basically, SSBerserker is like an unreachable asymptote. You can try getting to it using the left side of basic Super Saiyans, or try using the right side of god forms (SBG and Ep. 14 Radiance might not exist anymore, but for the sake of symmetry I used them).

I think Jiren is using his eyes to controlling movement, ki-blast

1.Fox god threw a brick that fucking fast, jiren was able to move it with his head or eye close (by using his eye) and not even make a move
2. in ep 100 he widen his eyes to control ki blast depending how much power he put in it?

I believe he also read mind where punches is going go though we have yet not seen him fought yet against someone beside goku in that introduction for 10 second that all for now

I still believe there will be hit vs jiren but that just really pipe dream

am I crazy? feel free what you think

Berserker Kale couldn't put a scratch to SS2 Goku, and SSB Goku was heavily holding back (he said he would use a little more power when he went from SS2 to SSB, he probably avoided SS3 because of its stamina issues). I don't think Berserker Kale is stronger than SS3 Goku, let alone God & Blue. She appears to be at the same level as LSS Broli in Movie 10, at a level between SS2 & SS3.
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.

Sorry if this doesn't belong in here or if it has already been discussed, but I was just wondering something about the Super Dragon Balls.

They are known to be divided between Universes 6 and 7, but do we know what will happen to them if one of those universes has been erased? If hypothetically U7 wins the tournament and the wish is used (without restoring the other Universes) then would all seven Super Dragon Balls simply go to U7? This would give them three sets of Dragon Balls to abuse. I'm also curious to know if other linked Universes have their own sets, it seems a bit unusual that 6/7 would have been singled out to have them. Not only that, but if both U6 and U7 lost (which we all know won't happen, at least not without them being restored immediately after) then would the Super Dragon Balls disappear too?

More OT:

I think Jiren's eyes are definitely meaningful in regards to his strength, for the reasons you have stated and because of the Intro/Current Ending. The intro zooms into his eye whilst the ending currently has his eyes glow and then fades the screen to white after. I know focusing in on a character's eyes is fairly common in many forms of media, but so far that seems to be the only trait we have repeatedly seen of Jiren.

That's waay too literal man..
Language can't work like that..

If everytime anybody in the office talks to your boss he slaps their dick around, but he dosen't do that to his secretary..
You gotta explain that to the new guy, how will you say it
"That guys a creep, he slaps everyone's dick around, avoid that meatbag"
Or
"You see that guy, he is our boss, don't talk to him, he will slap your dick..
He slaps mine too.. he also slaps Drake's and everyone else.. but he dosen't do that to his secretary.. not that you care....
So she dosen't need to worry about it.. but you do.. he will slap you.. but don't worry he won't slap her.."

Somethings are understood and this is one of them..
If you really want to be that technical here..
Here's the revised statement
earning the respect of someone who only talks nice to people ( besides kale ) when she needs something isn't possible..
The Lord moves in mysterious ways but you don't have to. Please use your blinker

Right, Goku's line was there for a reason, it doesnt get more obvious than that, his fight with Gohan and Krillin were more vague but people take it as Goku holding back, this time around Goku literally says he'll put in a little more power, literally a little more power than SSJ2 since SSJ3 drains stamina like a bitch.

Tell that to the guy that made the chart Berserk>SSJB not me.
Tho I dont agree that she's around God level, the line was there for a reason, like it or not he only raised a little bit of his power, yes he was that dumb, like how he was when he fought Beerus and had the nerve to hold back.

So a person tanking a ssjb Kamehameh walking through it a is only ssj3 level ?
Jesus the downplay and goku couldn't do shit to her at all in ssj2 and goku went ssj3 against trunks and again on the Island
Goku wasn't going all out in blue but that doesn't change the fact that kale straight up tanked his Kamehameha with ease
Stamina issue thing considering goku used it against trunks and again on the island with krillin
Nigga went blue cause ssj3 wouldn't do shit to her
