Ok.
So far, Dragonball Super has been amazing. Animation issues aside, there has been some extremely rewarding character development, and awesome arcs. By far, my favorite arc was the Zamasu arc. I love that Toriyama has gotten over his hate for Vegeta, and has finally made him a rival of Goku - one who is (more or less) on par with Goku.
This is a big deal, because all throughout DB and DBZ, Goku was clearly the strongest protagonist - save, maybe Gohan in the Cell saga, and Mystic Gohan in the Buu Saga. Vegeta was usually constant #2 - and even bumped by "weaklings" like Piccolo, and kid Gohan.
Now, we can say Vegeta is at least Goku's equal (not counting technique like Genkai Dama, instant transmission, and kaioken fist.) Goku and Vegeta are the only mortals, it seems, in the multiverse with the power of gods. I am excited to see how the gods will react when they see Vegeta, too, can turn Blue.
Concerning this tournament of power - it seems like it is going to be amazing. Already, I love
Vermouth/Liquor and Harloquine (Universe 11 god of destruction and his angel)
Universe 9 Supreme kai
Heles (universe 2 goddess of destruction)
The 3-tailed Fox god
I don't for Toppo, or his crew. Of course I have always loved Beerus, Whis, Champa and Vados.
I am curious how people think this will play out. I do not trust Daishinkan, and at least one of the Zeno. And, I am starting to question Goku a bit. He is more like the Manga character now (not a superhero, just likes fighting strong people.) But, when Toppo called him evil and he responded by saying it was "interesting," I thought that was suspicious.
Looking forward to others' thought!
