Damn! If Goku is impressed with Toppo strength. He will wet his pants when meet Jiren.

This bring an interesting question of what Goku will do to defeat guys that are above Blue, maybe pull out a SSJB2 out of his ass? :think:

Too violent? That's doesn't make any sense, kids loves violence! :D

But seriously though Zeno liked better Goku vs. Toppo then the matches between the GoDs? That's weird.

He's not impressed with the Tournament of Power
Cue Goku showing how mortals fight with his match against Toppo!
Toppo beats Goku, I guess this impresses Zenos
THen Toppo tells him that he's not even the strongest of his universe. Jiren is, and Jiren is even better than Belmod!
Is that how it's gonna end?
Zenos saying they don't like Jiren and instant erasure.. coz Jiren transcends everything and Pretty sure is considered stronger than the gods..
A fight with Jiren will be more violent, loud and fast than any fights the gods have shown us..

SSB was never gping to be enough to beat Topp that is why I say Toppo is the 4th strongest after Jiren, Hit and Ultra Instict Goku.

Toyotaro has been on-fire when it comes to the volume covers and back covers. I love all of them.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Wow, I didn't expect to get that tidbit about Jiren over Belmod so soon, nor did I expect Toppo to clown completed SSJB Goku either.

Toyotaro handled Toppo much better. I am not afraid to point out when Toyotaro does something better.
Toppo easily beating Goku sets up the bar high and makes Toppo look like he's actually an awesome fighter. His reveal about Jiren being even stronger than him is much more dramatic, and overall executed better than what the anime did.
Toyotaro is stepping up his game for this arc, that's quite evident. I just hope he will continue to deliver because his first two/three chapters of Future Trunks arc were also quite awesome, but then he completely failed afterwards.
Apart from episodes 86, 94, 95, 104, 107, 109 and 110 (I may be forgetting some other episode) the anime is quite average so I could see Toyotaro's take being better this arc. I still expect anime's true climax to be something mind-blowing and even better than episodes 66 and 110, so Toyotaro will really have to come up with some diverse and amazing choreographies for me to consider his product superior.

I'm very interested in the manga by the way, I just wished it was weekly because waiting a month for an entire chapter is quite boring and makes my interest drop considerably.

Makes sense. SSB couldn't get the job done in the anime not to mention Toppo's full power in the anime is still a mystery. Now in the manga SSB got stomped by Toppo.

Guys, if you haven't noticed, then double check again. Goku is using the Mastered Super Saiyan Blue. In one of the images we see Goku putting the aura into his fist as he charges at Goku.

If MSSB is the equivalent to SSB Kaioken, that means that we haven't actually have seen that type of fight in the anime yet, because the Grand Priest stopped them before they could each battle at full power.

In chapter 27, I think goku said he hadn't trained in like a year cause he was too busy farming.

There is no real point since the anime already did that and the manga is running behind. I am sure Toyo know this when he wrote the line.

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.

That scene's almost identical to the anime. He gets scratched by a bullet and goes to train with Whis because he's gotten rusty over the last year.

Pretty cool chapter. I love how Toyotaro gave each GoD their own distinctive love. Velmoud trolling is pretty good too.

Toppo beating Goku is a good touch and sets Toppo's position as a god of Destruction candidate firmly..
Yeah it was about time one of Goku's/Vegeta's opponent was not a joke or a weakling in the manga.

Oh.. wow.. did Goku just lose? or will this have a Boo type anime thing where Basil got thrown off but Zeno's didnt like that and the match continued until one dropped down?
Love the new cover page for Vol4 and those GoDs were giving those hands hard, look at those bumps.

Zeno is bored because he can't see anything. They are too fast and powerful for him to follow, that's all.

Vermoud playing dead to avoid taking damage :lol: I think that his plan was to beat the weakened Gods.

I'm torn with the idea of Toppo defeating (Mastred) SSJB Goku.

On one hand, this raise the stakes considerably and provides an even greater amount of hype and anticipation for when Jiren arrives and truly reaffirms the scenario of Velmoud selecting Toppo to be next Hakaishin of Universe 11. But at the same time, you have to wonder what kind of gimmick (prior to attaining Ultra Instinct) Goku is going to get if he fights Toppo again at the Tournament Of Power. Because now we know that SSJB can't get the job done against a fighter like Toppo. This is where the I believe the fight between SSJB Goku and Toppo being inconclusive in the anime works to its advantage because it creates a great amount of intrigue to when/if Goku and Toppo skirmish again. I also think this would be the perfect time for Toyotaro to throw Kaioken into the mix with SSJB in battle if there is going to be a solution for Goku improving himself in battle in preparation for the Tournament Of Power.

But it's all good stuff I'm seeing so far. The Hakaishin Battle Royal being the major highlight so far.

Yeah. It came out with last February's Saikyō Jump (I think), to celebrate the beginning of the Universal Survival arc.
