Well, you've got anime-exclusive things like Hakai Mode Toppo and Super Speed Mode Dyspo, but you've also got manga-exclusive characters like Granolah. And you have a secret SSJ4 Gogeta in there.
I didn't mind the fight. It's actually a little more interesting than seeing Goku and Vegeta fail yet again because it's not the finale so they can't get the dub.
It looks like Gas has the power advantage but Granolah is more skilled and used to the power so he's able to hang in there for now...
He doesn't give the impression that he trains, though. The only time it might have made sense to say that is when he taught Vegeta how to use Ultra Ego, but we're not given any indication he got stronger from that.
Belmod over 100x weaker than Beerus. Oh man. I just would LOVE to see Toyotaro work out the numbers on that one since he wrote all the lines suggesting it.
