Love the take on 17.
17 looks like he's casually watching some animals on his island lol

Goku was also completely effortless in his actions and assault. The same thing you just said about Jiren is also equally true about Goku in that form based on what was shown. Everything was easy for him. If he had wanted to, he could have eliminated Toppo and Dyspo both if he really wished to do so.
The only reason Goku was stopped so easily at the end there is because he had reached his limit. It wasn't all Jiren's doing.

Does anyone have the picture of the Zenos giving Goku energy and the spirit bomb blowing up in his face? CAn't find it

If gokus new power wasn't a new form and he can combine it with a transformation like super saiyan blue to make like super saiyan silver or some hilarious name like that then fuck it I'm game.
Jiren is still too overpowered though.

Did the Zenos give energy? Didn't see that.
If they did that spirit bomb would engulf the whole void lol
I would honestly put Dypso and Toppo above Gohan.

Decent eps especially 109, Jiren still didn't seem like he was seriously tested though expecting Goku to get another Toriyama handjob to win though

I liked 109 the best, I know Beerus schooled Goku worse on KK's planet, but this episode with the direction and the great music made it feel like this is the most dominated Goku's ever been, it was all extremely well executed with how they were trying to sell Jiren.
110 fight could have been a lot more hype if they stopped cutting away to people reacting.

Then it wouldn't be dragon ball or top
my opinion on Jiren hasn't changed since the start.
Still seems a try-hard to be cool. Especially with all the back-turning and posing. Like the story writers really wanted to have a cool guy and went overboard.
My thing is, they still haven't given a reason to care about him since like 30 episodes ago it feels like. It's been a really effin long time.

I wanna pinch 18's cheeks,so cute in this shot.

I didn't say I considered Gohan at #6. I'd probably put him in the top 10 somewhere. I'd definitely put him above Dyspo, but below Toppo.

Jiren seemed stronger than fused Zamas.

Yeah and Frieza above Vegeta too.
Jirens grown on me lately.
I've sort of come to like that he's rather simplistic and hasn't said much with not much of a backstory so far, feels like a refreshing change from other villains. He wasn't really being cocky about his power either, he put his money where his mouth is and showed he's far above everyone else. (even if Goku will probably surpass him later)

Gohan above Dyspo?
Gohan hasn't done anything. Dyspo pushed back SSG the whole time and had Hit on the rails for a bit. Given what we've seen, I doubt Gohan could even touch Hit. SSB Vegeta pre-Trunks arc couldn't.

that's impossible tho
Team work almost never takes down a massive more powerful opponent. Case in point, Nappa, Recoome, Frieza, and Beerus.
Kid Buu and were the exceptions with Goku massively weakened Vegeta and Kid Buu being killed by an universal Spirit Bomb.

To those of you saying that the new form/ui isn't enough to beat jiren, I think you are wrong. During the whole sequence in which Goku was fighting Jiren with UI, Jiren never broke Goku's guard once (iirc), whereas Goku landed multiple blows on Jiren (no matter how effective or ineffective they were, he landed them) Piccolo and Gohan also commented on how his movements and attacks were also continuously evolving during the fight, becoming sharper and more effective. This, coupled with the fact that when UI was brought up by Beerus, even the u11 gods got freaked out, leads me to believe that Jiren does not have this ultra instinct ability. If goku didn't run out of power, he would have kept improving even further and I think he would have one. When we inevitably get a Goku/Jiren rematch, I don't think it's the case that Goku is going to completely outclass Jiren this time around though, he definitely needs more mastery of the technique for that, but I do think that they will either double KO, end in a stalemate, or Goku will win by the skin of his teeth a la the 23rd Tenkaichi budokai. However when Goku does achieve mastery or near mastery of UI I don't think even Jiren will able to land a finger on Goku without achieving the technique himself.
I hope Vegeta knocks out Ribrianne next episode. I was down with her at first but she's a joke at this point, as many of you have said.
Also mouse god is clearly confident bc he has two undetectable fighters. Honestly, I could see a scenario in which we never actually see the bugs fight, U4 "wins" because they have more fighters on the field, but Zeno disqualifies the bugs because he thinks it's lame that he never saw them fight. Or something like that.

Do people wish to revisit the claim that Zamasu as an immortal could beat Jiren? No chance in hell.
Next Villain to be a Multiverse Level threat that makes Goku, Hit and Jiren the last 3 warriors standing for the final battle. The "Multiverse Finest"
Do it Toriyama.
OH SHI-
Do it Toriyama.

Depends. If they kept fighting Zamasu would win because Jiren would have to get tired eventually. If Jiren decides "fuck this", and leaves, and only comes back to smack Zamasu around when he acts up, then yeah no chance in hell.
In this case, Jiren came to Goku.
Well, yeah, that's always awesome and welcome.
....But Jiren isn't cool. He's just strong. A rematch with Hit would honestly be more compelling at the moment.
LOL that's amazing XD

Love all the little throwbacks to Namek Saga.
And I'm in agreement that Ribrianne needs to go away. I get the feeling Freeza is going to be the one to knock her out in hilarious fashion.
Now, about dat ultra instinct. No wonder Whis was so excited and the Gods are perplexed. This was something explained to Goku and Vegeta during Resurrection F about "moving without having to think." the very thing he also said that Beerus struggling to master and here Goku is doing it.
This has me worried, but you have to remember with shonen type shows new transformations need to be introduced to keep things fresh. I wonder of Goku would be able to tap into this form again, since we are not even halfway into the tournament I'd imagine there would be a round 2 for the grand finale. One Piece while Gear Second + Third was cool, new tricks had to of been added to keep those forms unique (haki and heat)
I wonder if they'll do this with Ultra Instinct with Ultra Instinct Super Sayian, keeping the older transformations with a new gimmick attached to it. It's the only thing I can think of that keeps the core concept of Super Saiyan fresh. Eventually it'll work it's way into SSB since that's the bar set for power upgrades.
20x kaioken (blue) was ineffective against a powerful foe
Spirit Bomb (Wha, Freeza helping?)
The transformation into Ultra Instinct
Freeza giving Goku a little energy to heal

Goku was able to toss Toppo around like he was nothing, even landing a blow on Jiren.

You don't have to care about an antagonist, I don't think anybody gave a shit about Raditz but he was still a threat and felt dangerous
We had a bunch of those and not like z had anything complicated it's not hxh or even Naruto
What can they show though?
It's not like Dragon Ball or HxH where they can show weird tasks (delivering milk, defeat a doll clone, dig through a boulder etc) as training. At the current point it would only come down to mental training and sparring. (which lets be honest, Toei would never give a decent amount of time or budget to.)
Once you get around Dyspo's secret, he folds like a house of cards. Considering that Gohan instantly knew what Freeza was up to in 108, I think he could handle Dyspo and his secret if he took it seriously.

Yes because he is inmortal, Jiren had to rest and conserve energy.
In the Tournament though, no chance he would be ringed out
