That only way that could possibly happen is if Beerus decides to step in and Jiren kicks his ass.

By the way, in terms of power, I've been thinking that maybe the difference between KKx20 Goku and SSB2 Vegeta and the Gods of Destruction is narrower than we've previously thought, with UI Goku, Jiren, and Kafla being at or above the Gods of Destruction altogether.

Well I don't really care if they job.

I'm just saying we got less than 10 episodes of Super so if your hoping for them to job in that frame of time then you better start hoping hard.

Whis already supposed that Vegeta and Goku could beat Beerus with Blue if they worked together.

Kaioken Blue made Beerus gape, but Ultra Instinct left him more intrigued than anything. Once agian, to no one's surprise, Super's power-scaling is f'cked all to hell. Just wait until Krillin gets ultra-instinct and then Marron gets ultra-instinct, and it starts spreading like a virus until the planet Earth has ultra instinct and we get to see the planet nimbly avoid incoming meteors.

Ok, I want to be clear that my original intention was asking Slim if why he wanted Beerus & Whis to job & it turns out he actually doesn't care so moving on.

[up][up][up] Super widened the gap that RF had, though, which is how we got this Kaio-ken nonsense.

I agree that Freeza's behaviour doesn't make sense coming off the Sidra stuff, thought that while watching the episode.

And the lack of explanation about GOD Toppo and what a GOD means in general definitely bugs me, like I mentioned with the Hakai stuff. I wish if they were going to use it this much they'd flesh it out more, but the way they just throw new details in seems very 'seat of your pants' Toriyama style writing.

I'm pretty sure Toppo's transformation isn't actually meant to be a change - he was still called a candidate, and they mentioned that this is the result of his training. I think the idea is just that Belmod gave him special training that has allowed him to reach this power, and he was concsiously avoiding using it until now.

I still think Jiren being stronger works better because the GOD candidate being the second strongest guy around is interesting and having Toppo show off his strength and set up Jiren was kind of nice. They just needed to handle Jiren better.

Toppo going from fat to /fit/ reminds me of Chouji in Naruto doing something similar. I think the explanation was he burned off his fat with his family pills and turned it into chakra or some magic ninja science bullshit. I wonder if Toppo's Hakai will be something like that.

Just you watch, that meme is going to have consequences. Just like how Goku vs Superman spawned Jiren, the next arc villain is going to be based on Shaggy.

I just like the idea of Scooby being the God of Destruction in that scenario.

Well considering we actually have Dragon Ball Superman chances are might get Dragon Ball Shaggy at some point.

And then eventually the Dragon Ball Son of the Shepard.

Choji didn't quite so much go from fat to fit as fat to emaciated.

The next arc will be about hunting ghosts? Who turn out to be Old Man Whis in disguise?

I miss Dragon Ball Abridged, but here is Devil Artemis doing his take. Good thing he is a good imitator (Except for Goku, but hey, 3 out of 4)

Seeing GOD Toppo reminds me. There's no God of Destruction...of Time... Yet in the Xenoverse games. Wonder if one of the later games will actually have either your CAC or Trunks end up filling that role. Might make for a unique change of story template. Also, it'd make for the opportunity for the final level to give your character a new power-up in the form of GOD form.

I'll call the God of Destruction of Time the God of Decay instead. Also, I wouldn't mind a version of Shaggy that's completely serious that shows up. Like a noir detective that just so happens to have a large appetite as well as a badass giant dog as an ally.

Beerus kind of fulfills that role since he already convenes (and bosses around) the Supreme Kai of Time. Fitting, as he has an ability to make objects age into a [up] state of decay.

Why would they need a Time Destroyer? New timelines are extremely rare and they would need destruction on the scale of Zeno.

Also isn't Toki Toki the one that actually makes new timelines not S Ko T? Can't she just get a hammer or something.

[up] I'm mostly bringing it up for the story potential, destroying timeline offshoots and having your life linked to Chronoa could lend itself to a much more unique story than what the Xenoverse games have been having so far. Heck, the story could even be about Chronoa trying to make a GOD only to decide in the end that the role isn't really needed.

What if Chronoa is the Supreme Kai to Zeno's GoD and Grand Priest's Angel? I know it seems like a stretch, but it would fit in nicely if they tweeked her backstory a bit.
