I wonder how long 17 and freeza are going to fight toppo before toppo beats them. I hope it doesn’t take half an episode. Vegeta vs toppo needs more than just half an episode

Ya know just thinking about it I'm a bit annoyed that characters like Dyspo and Toppo don't have single elimination under their belts. I mean they gave one to Ribrianne so I don't get why they couldn't give those two ones as well. Though I like 17 and enjoy Vegeta a part of me hopes Toppo knocks out one or both next episode.

Exactly. If we're talking about 118, then his one and only appearance was at the end, commenting amused that Goku didn't need to use UI this time. It was nothing like the summary described. Though I don't think we had another case of misleading summary quite as bad as that one.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
So far, Dyspo and Toppo have both had transformations/power-ups. Something tells me this isn't even Jiren's final form.
"Dragon Ball once became a thing of the past to me, but after that, I got angry about the live action movie, re-wrote an entire movie script, and now I'm complaining about the quality of the new TV anime. It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

Seriously though, Jiren is gonna have more power for sure, he isn't exerting himself in the slightest right now..
And GP dosen't have the be the strongest fighter, nobody in the show outright confirmed that if memory serves right..

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
Aside from fan theories, a thing that made me always think was Vermoud's quote " Jiren is a being who will never lose, no matter who he's up against" like he CAN'T be beaten, not only because of his power but with another trick/curse /wish or something else
Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
That could be an interesting plot, but I think it's a throw-away line because Dragon Ball is not that subtle. If that was meant to be foreshadowing, they would have at least some character like Piccolo turn his head and have an inner monologue like "What does he mean... ...a being who will never lose?" backed by some mystery-announcing background music.MrBlackFox wrote:Aside from fan theories, a thing that made me always think was Vermoud's quote " Jiren is a being who will never lose, no matter who he's up against" like he CAN'T be beaten, not only because of his power but with another trick/curse /wish or something else
Yeah, that's a complaint that will probably be voiced more often when people review the ToP as a whole. They made it a battle royal, so things should happen in parallel. The pictures on screen tried to convey this a little bit by occasionally showing that some other fights are happening at the same time, but the writing was done the same way previous tournaments were written: sequentially. A sequence of new enemies presented to have them eliminated by the main cast. Why, for example, do Goku and Vegeta eliminate an entire universe right in the beginning? Those two would get plenty of glory later. We could have seen Dyspo bolt in superspeed between three from the Trio of Dangers, throwing them all out, before they knew what hit them. That would have a long way to establish him and his superspeed as a serious threat and it also would have cut away from U7 and enhanced the feeling of a battle royal with more stuff going on than whatever the main cast is up to.Dbzfan94 wrote:Well Toppo and Dyspo literally stood around for like what 10 episodes?
