I mean, he pretty much explains the same thing that Roshi said during that tournament during his encounter with 17 in Super, basically saying he's never really been aware of saving the planet, that he's come this far just from wanting to fight strong guys, but that he can't stand innocent people and animals getting killed or erased thanks to his grandfather's teachings.
Let's see if you can get past my Beelzemon. Mephiles, WARP SHINKA!Also, you do realize that no one can do anything to stop this. Zeno is going to destroy at least 7 universes whether anyone likes it or not, and considering Zeno was apparently willing to erase even Goku if he didn't go all-out in his fight with Bergamo because of the whole bet that was happening, Goku doesn't exactly have as much sway as people would think. Goku has, more than likely, fully accepted that this is going to happen, and is going to at least try to keep his universe from getting erased.

Let's see if you can get past my Beelzemon. Mephiles, WARP SHINKA!Fair point on Zamasu. He did seem to enjoy nature, at least.
I thought the real mood whiplash was Vegeta nuking half of the audience and part of the nearby city, followed by Mr. Satan and the announcer wondering if they should still hold the awards ceremony.
I don't really think this is the best time for that kind of talk?
It's not like the only options are for Goku to either angst non-stop or be completely chipper about directly dashing the other universes' chances of surviving. Everyone is way too easy-going about the stakes, but Goku has it by far the worst by being excited that he will be directly involved in erasing 7 entire universes.
It doesn't matter if he can't change it, he doesn't shown the least bit of remorse for this.
Seriously the sheer amount of "The universe will be destroyed if we lose? Meh, don't care" is staggering.
This song needs more love.Yes, it's a problem with everyone. The whole situation is nonsensical, with several characters caring more about money than their universe being erased. That doesn't make Goku in character, it means there is something seriously fucking wrong with the writing across the board.
Oh yeah, the video reminded me on Zamasu's immortality - I know when I last mentioned it, someone said he was invulnerable in the anime instead of regenerating, but he has been pierced by both Trunks' and Black's swords and then healed off the damage. So is the anime just inconsistent about this?
I mean, even if they do go with the "Goku uses Super Dragon Balls to revive the universes" angle, there's really nothing stopping the Zenōs from just erasing Universe 7 for defying them, erasing the 7 universes that lost all over again, and/or erasing the Super Dragon Balls in their entirety to prevent anyone from using that loophole again.

Let's see if you can get past my Beelzemon. Mephiles, WARP SHINKA!wow. i didn't realize just how bad super's fight scenes were but those were actually terrible. everyone looked stiff as hell and the fighting was just slow.
still there were some badass moments in it.
in any case i hope the manga version of super fixes a lot of the flanderizaiton that super is putting these characters through, because some of it is outright contradictory to the source material.
"There's not a girl alive who wouldn't be happy being called cute." ~Tamamo-no-MaeWell considering the fact the manga still had Goku not having kissed Chichi once and forgetting the Mafuba tag again, as well as making Black basically Xicor 2.0 and reusing concepts from Toyotaro's old AF fan doujinshi, i.e. the transformation switching technique that Vegeta also came up with in that to deal with Xicor better, don't get your hopes up.

Let's see if you can get past my Beelzemon. Mephiles, WARP SHINKA!Again, most of the stuff is actually from Toriyama, not Toei, though if I recall the preview of the current Saga correctly, it did show off the manga's version of that meeting between the Zenōs and the Gods of Destruction about the tournament, and we did see Goku freaking out about it just as much as Beerus and Shin were.

That one scene doesn't mean Goku is in character for Super though.
