I remember all my characters being higher level than Gohan by the time I get him back. Maybe I just grinded more than you guys.

I think mine were around the same level in my most recent playthrough. It's still bullshit that you still need to grind Gohan something like 15 levels to pass through a gate immediately after you get him back. There's only one screen of enemies to do it with so it's boring, too.

We need a timeline where Yamcha becomes the King of All.

Ha ha ha. What a story, Mark.

Yamucha has the potential to become king...and Ten will be his right hand guy.

Watching it this way, it really looks like the hectic free for all battle it's supposed to be, with many things happening at once.

[up][up]That is a nice touch...detail.

The arena must be pretty wide....despite the hecticness, the characters fighting eachother never see the effects from other battles happening.

The fact Universe 3 is tied with Universe 6 in second is surprising. I think the reason they are treated as losers is so they can surprise us with becoming competent

Well Narirama was set up to fail, but Maji Kayo was pretty good all things considered, and that robot Gohan was fighting last episode seemed decent.

So the official artwork for most of the minor tournament competitors has been realeased, and Paparoni's intrigues me because it looks like his staff is broadcasting some sort of signal. That's how he controls the robots, I'll bet - so break the staff and you drop the entirety of U3.

So...apparently Jiren's profile has been update on the Dragon Ball Super website, and it now states that Jiren's power has reached the domain of the Gods of Destruction. So yes, in order for anyone, especially Goku, to be able to beat Jiren, they'll have to flat-out surpass the Gods of Destruction themselves to do so.

I wonder why Toppo is the one being scouted to be a God then?

I guess Jiren is uninterested.

I mean, remember that Jiren was the one shown in the early previews cloaked next to Belmond, before it got changed to Toppo, so it's possible that Jiren was originally planned to be the one next in line for the position, before they decided to leave him as more of a mystery.

Jiren is very rapidly bordering on Boring Invincible Antagonist, if he isn't already there.

He hasn't even been an antagonist yet, there's no way he qualifies for that.

@ Paparoni: Actually, if anything he might be why the team is having problems. We don't know what his personality is like, but given he has the classic Mad Scientist look I can't imagine it being that good. It's possible he's causing poor leadership that exacerbated by his direct control over the team. Maybe the reason Nigrisshi got owned is because of internal sabotage on his part for whatever reason

PMC is right. Jiren's basically a Boring Invincible Bystandard right now.
