[up][up] People try to defend it with "but it's good animation!" Well, that's fine, but it's still kind of lazy. They couldn't put in the effort and animate a different sequence?

I like to assume they're saving the budget for the next episode

TBH that makes this one basically pointless.

[up][up] They probably had some arbitrary episode quota to meet

Makes you wonder how long they've known that Super was ending.

@Soble Its defiantly better than the shit characterization we got now.

[up] I am curious about that.

I meant to mention that particular scene: I was surprised they were actually that lazy with something. Like, wow.

Takes the whole standing still pommel duel to its logical conclusion.

Only the magic is lost in that scene.

It's like there's two different layers of animation and they forgot to center it. tongue

The very next set of frames is Jiren pushing Goku back, aligning them with their fists, so that probably is what happened.

Yeah, I thought that looked bad in the preview even before the episode came out.

Thinking about the gods of destruction, I just realized that Rumsshi's design is actually kind of clever. First off, he's a pink elephant named after an alcoholic drink. The most famous pink elephants come from a hallucination drinking alcohol. Second, in Real Life elephants love alcohol and take fermented fruit, they can be a mean drunk.

His counterpart Mosco deserves props too. He's a robot based off a drink served in a metal cup. I wonder if there are any other parallels we can make between Gods of Destruction and the alcohol they're named after

I think Beerus and Champa are supposed to be reversed - Beerus is skinny but beer is served in large mugs, while Champa is stout even though Champagne is served in petite glasses.

Also, Beerus at least tries to present an air of refinement and authority, while Champa is a lazy, goofy, immature slob. The opposite of the common perceptions of beer and champagne drinkers.

How is it that brothers become gods of destruction of different universes?

Presumably, you don't need to come from a universe to be the God of Destruction of it.

There is an interesting story beyond the cat brothers ascension.

I haven't read the super manga at all, but I've seen online that they show Belmod's planet in it and it's a freaking circuis tent [lol]. I can only imagine Toppo's reaction while he was training.

A story that I've wanted to know since Champa was introduced.
