So, the likes of Freeza and Vegeta aren't even worth fighting for Jiren. This means they're even weaker than Goku and Hit. Yes, we knew that, but it's good to have confirmation for once.
More like neither Freeza nor Vegeta have shown their true colors yet.
Freeza is only as strong as SSB Goku. Toppo can handle that. Vegeta is debatable.

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.

Eh. I still feel like Vegeta and Frieza can take out Dyspo and Toppo

I can't see Ribrianne or Rozie taking anyone that is left in U7 personally. And if it's the fan favorite who keeps being matched against her than definitely not.

Motivation can only go so far. They just aren't strong enough. I do think Rozie will go before Ribrianne though so she probably has plot armor until then.


And I also simply think Ribrianne has lasted this long because someone in charge seems to like her. She's a fun character and I think she will last for awhile but I don't think they have a grand scheme for her.
Idk but I have the feeling she might be the one episode 114 was talking about, the so called "unknown warrior", probably she has another transformation after idk...Rosie gets eliminated?

I could see Brianne transforming again which should put her in the Blue tier range. Magical Girls are known for bs powerups.

Seriously? Why would they ban someone for such a simple question??

I really really REALLY hope that's not the case.

This series does not need Kale or Caulifla to be be sticking out like this. I'd rather see this be Briannes new transformation.

You are going to get something even better, a brand new Namekian form.

I don't know!


I do agree that Monna is probably a goner though!
I think Frieza is going to make the grave mistake of gloating about how he killed the Universe 7 Saiyans and get himself into some real shit. Vegeta didn't care much for the Saiyans but he likes Frieza even less.

Vegeta goes Blue for some reason but I'm not sure that'd be for Monna if he expects Cabba to handle her.

Gohan and Piccolo start winning and then the Namekians transform in episode 114, simple as that.

The possibilties for the warrior are probably:

1. New Namekian form
2. Ribrianne new form
3. Kale new form
4. Namekian fusion
5. Kale and Caulifla fusion
6. Bugs
7. Three universe 3 fighters fuse together

New Namekian form or fusion and the bugs are the only ones that interests me in the list.

Talking about fusion, we can still say Vegetto Blue could handle Jiren, right?

I hope for both as we need something to shake things up while Jiren is just meditating and maybe they can make him get up.

I would say no and we have not even seen Jiren at his full power yet.

I think our crystal ball would need a firmware upgrade for that. Although I'm quite confident that Vegetto Blue or a hypothetical Gogeta Blue would totally show that they have the strength to handle Jiren and then proceed to not win the fight and defuse due to some newly introduced circumstance that effects the fusion (how about "bad vibrations in the world of void") that is explained by some sideline character after the fact.

I'm kinda thinking he went blue for Frieza. He already let the Saiyan race in his universe get extinguished by him. I doubt that he will let Frieza mess with another race of Saiyans. Goku gave Vegeta an interesting look in the preview, so I wonder if it has something to do with why he would go against Frieza.

Besides, in the Frieza arc we never got to hear Vegeta monologue about the Saiyan race and Frieza. Maybe this will give him the platform to say something.

I wouldn't rule it out. Especially if Vegetto/Gogeta figured out how to tap into Ultra Instinct.

Gogeta Blue would be much, much weaker than Vegetto Blue.

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.

The more episodes pass the more I lean towards ribrianne new form being the new character.But,I don’t mind a namekian transformation(would be a cherry on top if it has some form of special ability I could live with less power) :wink:

The rage would be at maximum if it was Ribrianne.

I would take any Namekian transformation that makes them improve. I am juat constantly hoping it happens.

If I was to place a bet it would be on the Namekian fusion out of the 7 listed as we know 100% they can do it and becuase the word birth is in the episode title.

The question was only about Vegito Blue but if Ultra Instinct was Involved I would probably say yes.

Damn, you're right, that totally changes my ill-informed response to that clearly answerable question. I just did the math again and Vegetto Blue is ~14.239, just barely above Jiren with ~14.109, while Gogeta Blue is surely below that with his ~13.584. How silly of me.

I have the developers preview and my Crystal ball says his time limit of some minutes doesn't let that thought become a reality..
Vegetto blue ain't happening but a hypothetical Vegetto can and should beat Jiren with ease if his time limit isn't a concern..
