I have a theory the wish he wants is time related, and he wants to save someone dear to him with the wish. Hes effectively a superman parody, he could be trying to cure his louis lane from an incurable disease with the wish, but the tournament time limit coincides with the deadline quite closely. At first he was going in with a bad mood but sure he'd win, now hes abbrasive because hes getting desperate

or its to help his sick grandmother, IDK

He's no weirder than any other natives of another universe I've met.

Pretty sure his wish is simply everlasting peace in U11 or all universes.

Yeah, the complaints about Jiren not having a personality are strange. Just because a character isn't an extrovert who lets everyone know how he feels and likes to be doesn't mean he has no personality.

The fact he is the way he is, and that we know literally nothing about him, is exactly what makes him interesting. His overwhelming power, and desire for the super dragon balls to wish for something "beyond strength", has left me very engaged throughout this arc to find out just what the hell is up with this guy.

...but given there's 5 episodes left, i'm sure it'll be a rushed and dissapointing moment to find it all out :(
