Could Super Saiyan Blue Businessman Vegeta defeat Jiren?

Let's see, rosters in video games.

Goku, Kid Gohan, Vegeta, Piccolo, Krillin, Future Trunks, Gotenks, Final Form Freeza, Perfect Cell, Fat Buu, 18 and Ginyu seem to be the standard. Pretty much every game seems to have those (well, Final Bout doesn't, but Final Bout is weird). Recent games also incorporate Beerus more often than not.

Then we start to get people like Dr. Gero, Tenshinhan, Yamcha, Recoome, 16, other forms of Freeza, Cell and Buu, Ultimate Gohan... And movie villians, starting with Broly, then Cooler, then Slug/Turles/Janemba.

I've also noticed that Bardock and Broly tend to be a set. One is rarely in without the other

They are the most popular movie/special characters.

So uh... Toppo is stronger than Mastered SSJB in the manga. WELP.

And how's that worse than being on par with Blue Kaioken, then?

At least, that'd be consistent with him probably giving Vegeta and/or Freeza some trouble...

...

I wouldn't mind Dyspo getting Freeza'd, by the way

Tapion being in Xenoverse is the most surprising news here, but not unwelcome. Android 13 is less surprising but even better. Ya plumb done gone dagum did it now, son.

I wonder if either of them will serve as mentors.

Manga leaks are in,

Most of the other Gods of Destruction get some time to shine. Helles can use a bow and arrow, Belmond attacks with playing cards, and Liquiir can both split his tails up and fire ki blasts out of them. Rumsshi can also scream loud enough to crack the arena and push all the other Gods of Destruction back.

Goku vs. Toppo still happens, but this time Toppo is Goku's superior. Toppo knocks Master Super Saiyan Blue Goku out of the arena and towards the ground.

Looks like another highly entertaining chapter can't get translated soon enough.

Huh nice to know that the manga is picking back up after fumbling through the Goku Black Saga.

And hey Toppo is stronger not weaker, nice. [tup]

I actually care about the other Gods of Destruction now thanks to the manga. I hope they all make it into new Dragon Balls games with these moves.

Oh btw, the new Heroes Colloseum mode in Xenoverse 2 is essentially sorta like Heroes, but with in-game figurines instead of cards. Also, there'll be some new story stuff too.

I feel like that kind of defeats the purpose of Belmod singling out Goku as the one Jiren needs to defeat to destroy the other fighters' morale.

Why is Toppo challenging Goku in the Manga?

Does he still accuse him of being evil, and the cause of the universal destruction?

That doesn't matter. The anime and manga don't 100% correlate to each other.

I know that. I'm just curious as to what brought about the fight in this version?

Oh.

Didn't realize that. I'm still wondering why Toppo wanted to kick Goku's ass though. Do we know anything about that?

Probably for the same reasons as the anime?

Also, the Grand Priest is a badass.

Do you really need a reason to wanna kick someone else's ass in Dragon ball?

It's because Goku has a stupid face.

I was expecting him to be on-par with Mastered Blue, not stronger, but I guess this does silence all those saying that Toppo is supposed to be weaker than Blue in the anime.

It doesn't because, again, the manga has no barring on the anime, and vice-versa. They're being written by entirely different people.

You say that, but Anime recently took a concept that was exclusive to the manga.
