Not gonna lie, I'll be seeing this, but not expecting to have my world rocked. Mostly I'm going to see a DBZ movie on the big screen for the first and probably only time, since I don't know if I'll get the chance again.

Besides that, I'm excited to see a hand drawn animated movie for the first time in many, many years. That, and SSJG Vegeta are my only things drawing me in with any real excitement.

This film sounds amazing. Probably the best DragonBall movie yet. I can't believe I'm actually saying that.

Why is Jiren below Broly? Both the manga and the anime explicitly tell us Jiren > Beerus.

WRONG. And because there's some magazine hype that says Broly is the strongest foe Goku and company have faced. If Broly is stronger than Jiren and still questionable compared to Beerus, logic takes over.

Spoiler:















Broly's spiked Black hair/yellow eyes is a unique form.
It's taking the Oozaru power while staying in human form.
(Humaniod Oozaru, yellow eyes, black hair spikier than your original...) We have our canonized "SSJ4".

Anyway, good summary. Can't wait to see the fight! Gogeta is canon baby!!!

Considering Paragus is awe-inspired at the sight of Super-Saiyan and Broly turning into a Super-Saiyan after Paragus' death, the form is probably supposed to be inferior to regular Super-Saiyan. Since Raditz a-long time ago said that when Goku got his tail cut-off he couldn't show his true power anymore, maybe that's what he means that that's Broly's true power.

Broly is => Beerus apparently, though I don't know which form it's said for. But this doesn't prove Jiren is weaker than Beerus though. It goes by the manga level of power as well, where Jiren was Destroyer level rather than the anime.

1)Which form it's said for ? Goku was naturally talking about Broly at his peak, because he said it at the near end of the movie, after the fighting was over.

2)If one thinks that it's not enough to prove that Jiren is weaker, it definitely casts doubt on him being stronger too, because even an antagonist supposedly stronger than him is only questionably more powerful than Beerus at best. And even then, it's quite obvious that Goku doesn't have a full grasp on Beerus' power.

3)How do you know that it's taking into account manga level of power ? You do realize that Jiren was also Destroyer level in the anime, right ?

Goku said it to Broly at the end of the film when there was no fighting going on, so it's safe to assume he meant Broly at his peak. He would remember how powerful Broly was during the Gogeta portion just like Vegeta and the kids remembered being fused in the Boo arc.

It's rudimentary, my dear Watson.

Jiren was stated to be at the level of a GoD and that he was still "far from full power." It is rudimentary. Beerus is probably just the most comparable guy around. Or Toriyama already forgot who Jiren is.

Sounds like a retcon. Jiren and Mastered Ultra Instinct Goku should be >Beerus, and I believe a magazine even said Goku might be above Beerus.

It seems like surpassing Beerus is something they're just not ready for. Excluding the Angels, of course.

Even considering it's just off-the-cuff writing DragonBall Super has some really bad writing. AT used to be much better at keeping this logical.

So they've ended the TV series and Beerus is STILL a moving goalpost, nice
