This. You're telling me that Goku can suddenly go SSG when canon says he needs other Saiyans for it? Fuck out of here with that nonsense. This whole series doesn't make sense.

He transformed into God a second time, entirely by himself, in the original movie.

It's more than his phase ability and his Time-Skip uses the same 'tense' action, which is why Dypso couldn't guess which one he was doing.

sad to see my favorite universe before this arc get beat down hard like chumps. Going to hurt even more when Jiren falls like the rest and the universe is then deleted.

It as also never said that Goku could never get Super Saiyan God again especially since he absorbed it, something that no one expected to happen and Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan was Goku recapturing godhood. But, I would have liked an explanation about how long Goku had Super Saiyan God. Like, did he have it since Battle of Gods or did he relearned it from training with Whis.
Overall, I'm not happy about Super Saiyan God being back and it feels just as unneeded as the manga, but it did have a few blessings upon it return:
- It finally killed that stupid two-base theory that has been used to downplay everyone, so good ridden.
- Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan is the only form with ki control, ignoring that Goku didn't kill his wife in the Cell Saga when he was Super Saiyan and had sex with her.
- Slaythe will love this, people will stop downplaying 17, like saying Goku could have beating him with Super Saiyan 3.
- It confirmed once and for all that Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan > Super Saiyan God, despite the manga and narrator in the Resurrection 'F' Saga stating that it was.
- And I got to read salty Vegeta fans whining about Goku stealing Vegeta's gimmick from the Super manga, which was a stupid gimmick anyway but anything that makes Vegeta's fans cry tend to make me happy.

*Goku asks Piccolo to fight in the tournament*
Gohan: "Dad, are you sure you don't want me?"
Goku :"Uh..."
...
Goku: "I don't know what to say here"

When was it ever stated he couldnt go God anymore? He just prefers blue. Clearly just needs the other saiyans to unlock God mode which already happened. Dont know where you got it was a one time deal.
Normally, one can't go Super Saiyan God without the ritual. Goku can because he absorbed Super Saiyan God.

Well my one take away is even with SSg's reintroduction, goku felt super unnecessary here.
I'm legit starting to think toei is terrified to have him off screen for even 10 minutes.
Is Goku truly so money?

With super around they probably won't do another movie for a while.

Man I just watched this episode again. This is the first time I rewatched a tournament episode like this out of sheer hype.
God dang this episode was just awesome.

So you're telling me that if they redo the SSG ritual for every saiyan Z fighter, kind of like taking turns, everyone could become SSG and transform into it at will?

Where to find the theory?
No. Goku absorbing Super Saiyan God was a happy accident. It was meant to be a temporary form, but Goku's body absorbed and kept the power because he's 'a rare prodigy' using Beerus' word. It is up to debate if the other Saiyans can do it since they're also prodigies, but there's no answer either way.

You're trying to give the explanation where Super hasn't. This is your reasoning. It is never mentioned in Super that Goku absorbed the form, but it is mentioned he absorbed the power. Which is even dumber if you think about it because if Goku absorbed the SSG power, why would he need to go SSG?

I just realized we only have 4 more episodes with the current ED...

Resurrection of F was a decent to good movie but it didn't blow me away like BoG did
anyway, just saw the newest episode. I'm a little bit high on hype but I wanna say this was the best db super episode.
god damn, hit and goku were awesome

This is the main confusion I have with the return of the form.
This is definitely a top 5 Super episode for me.
Super gave the same explantation as the movie.

Still, at the end of the Super arc, it was said by Beerus that Goku absorbed the power of SSG. He didn't say or imply he permanently gained the ability to go SSG.
Regardless, the whole situation is really bad and not thought out.

Yo, I betcha the notes said he could still go SSG and talked about SSB kaioken. so too introduced kaioken first and now during this manga arc toyataro will introduce kaioken SSB.
My guess anyways.

I will say the Pride Troopers are idiots. Why the hell didn't Toppo and Jiren jump in when Goku joined the fray? Toppo knows how strong Goku is and the last time he tried to send his men against Goku, five of his teammates got ringed out. I honestly expected them to rush and save Dyspo after he nearly fell out the second time.
Toppo is a terrible leader. He left his team to the dogs twice.

They go by TV seasons (or cours), so January, February and March, then April, May and June, then July, August and September and finally October, November and December.
We're only getting 3 episodes in September because there will be a break in the second week.

when you start asking questions like that, none of Dragon Ball Z/Super makes sense
in this tournament, the strongest fighters have spent more time kind of standing back and doing nothing, watching other people fight, than they have fighting

Nintendo
Apart from that, it's quite moronic to stand at a high spot like that during a battle royale.

Truly the Goku show. He had to find his way in every fucking episode LOL
Vegeta should of been there instead of Goku this episode, would of been a lot better since he's pretty much no.2 in the show.

He has been in almost every episode, even when it has absolutely nothing to do with him he pops in. Some of the best parts of DBZ were when he was dead and we got to see what the could do.

Is there a break after episode 105?
Goku's forced inclusion into everything is honestly getting old.
Sure he's the hero, so what. What's the point of having 80 fighters if Goku is in almost every single episode forcing his way in ?
Almost makes me wish we just had regular turns now so that the asshole couldn't do what he's doing.

It makes sense from a character POV. They're overconfident idiots.
"I'm going to stand and watch my teammate get the shit beating of them". Thanks hero.
I'm confused. Why would Vegeta help Hit? The only grudge he ever cared about settling was Goku and Frieza. Him jumping in would be more shoe-horn than Goku, who has a relationship with Hit.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Lol @ Goku stealing Vegeta's invented moves from the Super manga. He's truly allowed nothing.
Can Vegeta even go SSG at all in the anime? Probably not. Final Flash and thats all you get mate.
