Doesn’t matter. Goku sees Beerus as his rival. He made Blue/Kaioken specifically to beat Beerus one day.
Fair enough, but that whole SSB/KK thing really is starting to look like it was never going to be enough now dosen't it...
Given that Goku got at least 10x stronger in a year, Goku probably could have done it, eventually. It was just take much longer.


Edit: More previews. Nothing really new:

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.

I wish Goku hairstyle in the new form was not so similar to his Base form:

Really? I never heard about that.

Well i do! He's a true God afterall in this form, however, luckily for you (and i like it aswell) his hair is not quite the same as Base, it has several bangs up, giving it a much wilder look, yet not too much either, it's perfect!

A GT animanga started in Saikyo Jump in 2014. It's just screencaps from the show with some filters and sound effects on them.

I'm going to laugh my ass off once Jiren so called Hakaishin level hype gets destroyed by Caulifla and Kale soon.

After all Toei had Trunks surpass Vegetto with the power of Ikari, and Jiren is the type of antagonist that usually gets trolled hard in Shounen series..

You're still pushing that? Trunks didn't surpassed Vegetto since he fought a weakened Merged Zamasu whose body was falling apart and he needed the power from others to even do that.

And even if we do say that Future Trunks surpassed Vegetto Blue, it has no relations to Caulifla and Kale since Trunks was the main character of that arc who usually get power jumps, while Caulifla and Kale are just secondary characters.

I'll have to see what it looks like in the show itself but I don't know what to make of the appearance of Goku's new form.

It looks good in the promotional posters but in the image above...it's just Goku with a slightly different looking aura and different colour irises.

For all the complaining people did with Super Saiyan God and Super Saiyan Blue, they at least had completely unique colours, with a unique and colourful aura. They stand out and are noticeable.

This new form is either gonna look good or its going to be one of the laziest designs for a new transformation ever. Goku with silver eyes and a slightly different aura.

Why does it have to be one or the other?

I disagree, it's the pinnacle of awesomeness! And of originality aswell! It has a multi-colored aura, that's quite fleshy, yet seems to surround his body, like Beerus' does aswell. And it's the first "transformation" that keeps Goku's black hair in base. It even has silver eyes that seem completely different from the rest of his body. This is quite original, and highly creative. Yes, Simple, but with style!

Nothing in the scene/dialogue implied that Merged Zamasu was weakened when he fought Future Trunks, he didn't show signs of being exhausted or worn out. Don't know why people insist in that. "Sword Of Hope" or whatever the name is was show to be more efficient than Vegetto Blue's Final Kamehameha, so yes Future Trunks has surpassed Vegetto.

Goku's new form has silver eyes with a sharp eye ball, different hair than base and SSJ, he is more buffed and the aura is way different and awesome. So yeah its not lazy and way different and better than a blue SSJ.

It was stated that Zamasu was falling apart and Vegito caused this too, he wasn't worn out and surely it doesn't seem like that because his wounds were healed, but he was falling apart.
Vegito dodged with ease and stated Zamasu could no longer keep up with his speed, while continuing to knock him around. Trunks had troubles against Merged Zamasu and took hits from him while barely being able to slash him with the sword twice. Trunks was clearly having a hard time holding him off than Vegito who dominated the fight, and Zamasu even looked scared. Only reason Trunks won is because he got energy from others and PIS spirit sword.

He never surpassed Vegito or even SSJB Goku and Vegeta.

From that screenshot I actually like Gokus new “form” but I’ll wait to see how it’s implemented. It would be nice if it’s a technique but not cool if it gives him super crazy powers for some reason.

I like the aura how it is shown in the promotional images with the multi-coloured luck. I don't much care for the look of the aura with how it looks in the picture above.

I also don't think a new transformation should have the same style hair as what we always see. The eyes being a different colour is something but I think the hair should have probably have been the same colour

Goku's new aura possesses the following colors as far as we can tell from the images that are provided to us: Blue, Purple, White and Violet.
