Yeah, I don't think Kubo's always been consistent about the reiatsu thing and think it would work a lot better if he did. On the other hand, Aizen had become even stronger by that point, and Yhwach mentions that the effect could have ended so it looks like it couldn't effect him for long.

[up][up][up] I always wondered why Gohan's hair suddenly spikes up as a teenager outside of Super Saiyan. And then it gets styled back down in ROF.

Aizen was basically incapable of doing any real damage to Ichigo in their final confrontation, and Yamamoto already showed a very easy way make sure you know he's really there.

Either way, Aizen never stops using his sword's powers without a given explanation, and against Ichigo he couldn't use it even if he wanted to do so.

But, not the Bleach thread...

Ehh, true, and there's also a reason I don't go to that thread...

On a slightly different note, has anyone here played the Dragonball game Advanced Adventure?

That seems to be well loved by those who have, but I could never get into it

Kid Gohan's hair would look like Gohan's from time to time as well, like that Saiyan arc manga cover that shows them as parallels of each other.

I found it, the image doesn't make it seem too similar...despite being messier, that's just what Gohand's hair would look like from the front anyway.

[up][up]Played to 100%...is good.

There are a couple pretty tricky parts. I think the 1v1 fights could have used improving, I liked the actual bosses and the feel of doing the "punch into air slam into ground" thing, but it usually comes down to luck.

And when it's V King Piccolo who has about three health bars on you...

The spritework is really really good though.

There has been no confirmation that Jiren is stronger than Beerus. While there is implication & suggestion absolutely nothing has been confirm about Jiren being stronger. The only confirmation of which Go D Jiren is stronger than is Belmond. Not that it's hard to imagine Jiren being stronger than the majority of Go D anyways.

The story very clearly wants us to believe Jiren is stronger than Beerus, so we should discuss things as if he is. No one has said they've said the words "Jiren, from Universe 11, is stronger than Beerus, God of Destruction of Universe 6." That those exact words have not been uttered doesn't mean we shouldn't be talking about what they obviously intend for us to believe and have directed us towards.

You can't get much clearer than Whis' statement. That Beerus tried to contradict it isn't worth as much as that, since it's a pretty weak contradiction at that. It was like when Whis tried to contradict Vados' comment about her being stronger than him.

Wait... does that theoretically mean Goku could possibly be stronger than Beerus now?

If he masters Omen or gets whatever the 'complete' form is, he should be.

He needs to get the stamina drain under control before I'm comfortable saying he could beat Beerus.

I mean, Aizen technically got stronger in pure terms, he just decided not to use his unbeatable illusion powers because... uh... because they're unbeatable. They're hax, they're bullshit, be honest, Ichigo doesn't have the brains to beat them even if they were beatable.

I wasn't talking about Aizen, I was talking about the final battle with Ywach. I thoroughly enjoy Kurosaki beat down on Aizen even if the conclusion was very confusing.

Also regarding Jiren being stronger than Beerus, than they should just flat out say it rather than be amibigious.

About Goku being potentially stronger than Beerus, of course he can. This is the guy who can break any limits

For the final battle... yeah, I can get what you're saying. Kubo had been depowered over all the tiring years so Shonen Jump was finally able to deliver the final cancellation.

On a more serious note, I'm going to miss Beerus being stronger than Goku. It was the really big change Super had to the Z status quo and I feel it gave it a unique identity.

Kubo voluntarily ended Bleach due to health concerns.

Though, it does make you wonder what's going to happen after this tournament, what the new status quo will be. I mean, I know it's been said a lot but where do you go from here?

Towa and Mira's demon realm? That's basically the only option I can see left, and after they've exhausted that, what then?

I still like the idea of tackling a "New Gods" storyline focusing on Toppo replacing Vermoud, Vegeta replacing Beerus, and possibly Freeza replacing Cidre. And with the Hakaishin Toppo episode on the horizon, that sounds like a very good lead-in for such an arc.

Vegeta's nowhere near strong enough to replace Beerus.

[up][up][up] I doubt they'd use Makai, since that won't feel fresh after the video games have used it so much. Which is a shame, because it was a concept I wish had been explored next after the Boo arc.

And since Super has mostly been about the Gods, it'd be weird for them to move onto something different after this.

Also, I'm rewatching the middle of the Black arc, the episodes I skipped/glossed over before, and man - the anime version of the first trip has Goku leave the senzu in the bathroom, which is so ridiculously idiotic compared to the manga having Zamasu be competent and take/burn them. Also, I didn't notice that Zamasu was called a Kaio in the anime as well.

Ah, Goku can't even remember the name Rosé.

Yeah, if they don't do a "New Gods" arc, I'm fully expecting the Angels to be either the next antagonists or the ones right after the next one.
