Not going to lie, Jiren using a spirit bomb on Goku would be so full of hype. The fact that they're putting so much focus on Gohan getting his ass kicked makes me think that Gohan will manage a win in the end. Either that or he's getting eliminated.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

I think Super is pulling a fast one. Super has had grossly misleading titles in the past to manufacture intrigue and I think this is just another case of it.
Maybe GD is something he does in the last 5 mins of the episode? :p

Never mind his strength, would it even work on Jiren since he isn't evil from what we've been told?
Trunks powered up enough to one shot merged Zamasu from humans you could count on your fingers , let's not underestimate super's disturbing habit of coolness first logic never..

I really want it to be a case of writers forgetting spirit bomb dosen't work like that..
A situation like that would be insanely cool to miss out..

Trunks did not power up from countable humans but all life left. There were not only humans glowing.

He will probably foil Zeno to rise his arms and then he get an instant kill energy to use on Jiren :lol:

EDIT: Is actually Jiren who uses the Spirit Bomb? But how? He learned from who?

Would be cool if Jiren (if he really will be the one using genkidama) was already gathering energy from the start, but unlike Goku he can do it while moving :lol:

Speculations, we're not sure if its Goku or Jiren.

Goku could use it to try and ring Jiren out. Vegeta, Frieza and Buu all went for a ride when it hit them.

Doesn't matter Goku went out like a bitch and Vegeta didn't. In the end Vegeta had to save Goku just the same. More people have a problem with how Goku went out than Vegeta so he wasn't treated any worse, especially as he wasn't kicked around either.
Then you have to prove they weren't using their full power.
They didn't use their full power until they fought Merged Zamasu and the second time they charged at him after saying they would use full power.
Freeza's henchmen were the strongest fighters in the universe at the time of the Freeza Saga next to Freeza himself, so no, you honestly have to stop with the devaluing of them.
And he got beaten around like a chump by those henchmen, twice, beaten within an inch of his life. Knew full well he couldn't beat Zarbon in a true fight so had to cheat his way to a win. He shat his pants when the Ginyu Force showed up and had to quickly ally himself with others. Ran off like a chump when he had to fight Ginyu and Jeice. Then finished off Jeice after Goku had already made him look like a pansy.

At the Tournament he actually beat people back to back without having to cheat, without being terrified of his opponents. Frost was tired but Magetta and Cabba weren't and he beat them.
His wins on Namek are about as good as his wins in the U6 tournament but you want to pretend like they're not and act like the quality of opponents he beat there are better than the ones he beat on Namek at the time of the Freeza Saga.
His wins on Namek are separated by his total losses and cowardice as well. Him cheating so he could beat Zarbon because he knows he couldn't do it normally is not a good win for him.

Even for the time, the fighters in the Universe 6 Tournament are amongst the very best. The five best in an entire universe and he beat three of them in a row.

The ones he beat on Namek were never the best. Frieza was the best and he didn't beat him. Then Ginyu and he ran away from him. The other members of the Ginyu Force he beat one of them who at that point was no longer a credible threat because Goku made him look stupid.

Then there was Nail, didn't fight him. Zarbon, he beat him by cheating. Then there was Dodoria and Cui who were not even in the best five of the henchmen and even Krillin could have beaten them.
In both of those sagas, Vegeta ends up getting his own performance shitted on in the end and having to watch other dudes outperform him.
Yeah but that happened to Vegeta over and over and over again in Z. It's happened just a couple of times in Super, that's it. When Vegeta went and killed Tagoma that was infact his greatest victory that he had had since he killed Android 19.

For people that are getting surprised by jimizu giving gohan trouble.They must not forget that murichim was shown fighting somewhat evenly with toppo.I don't think that short background skirmishes such as caulifla and jimizu should be given much importance.

All Murichim did was pushed Toppo off-scene when he was distracted by Goku calling him. We never saw them fight.

Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

Indeed we can't base a full fight on just what happen in a skirmish. The whole point of the ToP is fighting unkonown warriors who you don't know their full potential or what they are able to do. So no one can underestimate Jimizu or Ribrianne.

Now I am wondering if this news is confirmed or not?

For a fan of Ribrianne it is very important and very interesting so just need to know if this is unconfirmed or not?

Til I see where the reliable source came from, ala the usual pics Herms places with his translations, I take this all with a grain of salt.

Right now that is what I am doing as well, they seem strange and have come out very soon, sooner then I thought.

I like to support and talk about any news about Ribrianne or Universe 2 but right now I have my doubts still in this news.

These spoilers seem true for a variety of reasons, but it indeed is best to not get onboard till we get scans to go along with it..

At least these spoilers are more believable than the Vegeta transforms into a demon and Jiren having a transformation.

Typing with my fingers :lol:

Maybe Goku will achieve that new form by absorbing the Genki-Dama? Though if it is the case then this would be a one time thing, wouldn't it? The Genki-Dama bit is a little random, unless it is Jiren who uses it but that would still be random. But everyone is saying these spoilers sound legit so I believe them, it sounds like when we got spoilers about Freeza coming back.

Yeah, the fake spoilers usually have some bit of extravagent bullshit. :lol: The most suspicious thing about these is the Spirit Bomb in the 109 title.
