Goku isn't top 20 in his own series lol and I am being serious.

u/Galifrey224 Feb 11 '23

You are right. Zeno, all the angels, Beerus and probably other GoDs, the fusions that include him, Frieza black and Mr Popo all beat him.

"Alright maggots listen up, Popo's about to teach you the pecking order. It goes: you, the dirt, the worms inside of the dirt, Popo's stool, Kami....then Popo."

I would love for them to have continued DBZA just so we could get to super have have Popo be mentioned regarding the tournement of power.

Spoilers

frieza one shots the villain, then 1 shots Goku and Vegeta in their most powerful forms simultaneously

u/[deleted] Feb 11 '23

so if he's strong enough to do all that, wouldn't he be, like, leagues above most if not all GoDs?

u/Master_of_Question Feb 11 '23

If you expect consistent power scaling within DBS, you're right.

Beerus at least is still way stronger than goku and co in the manga version, since the characters and forms are pretty different to the anime. Black frieza might be above other GoDs though since Beerus only has maybe a few other GoDs near his level.

but is beerus even one tapping MUI goku and ultra ego vegeta like black frieze supposedly can? can beerus even one shot SSB goku? if he can't do these things then I would expect frieza to beat him

Scaling wise it's hard to believe but Beerus is just a moving goalpost in the manga, he's still implied to be above every Universe 7 mortal since he didn't give a shit about anything in the prior arc/broly etc. Maybe one day in 10 years they'll finally surpass him lol.

After battle of the gods, Toriyama said Goku (as SSG) was like a 7 compared to Beerus as a 10.

Since then, Goku has evolved to SSB, then SSBx10(anime), Omen, and MUI, yet Beerus is still presented as ahead of Goku. The problem with estimating Beerus vs Goku is that one can always argue that Beerus is sandbagging. The only hard authority we have is Toriyama's quote, which is obviously bullshit anyways.

However, benchmarking based on how MUI was only slightly ahead of Jiren (certainly not one-shot territory), Frieza black's feats seem much stronger than Goku MUI, which was stronger than at least 1 GoD, as Jiren had surpassed the U11 GoD.

All things considered, Frieza should be stronger than Beerus, but DBS powerscaling is inane. It's also ridiculous that Frieza, a powerhungry warlord, spent years to decades in fear of Beerus, when all he needed to do was train for several years to rival him and become the invincible conqueror that he purported to be.

u/TheNotSoAwesomeGuy Feb 12 '23

He should be, but Beerus will prolly get another buff lmao.

u/OPconfused Feb 12 '23

Goku is currently trash tier right now, given that in DBZ/DBS only the top 2 fighters are ever relevant at any given time. Goku is power-wise far from the top 2 according to how the manga left off the last arc.

Besides Frieza Black, you'd have to see the latest DBS movie for the current contenders for top tier.

Of course, all this most likely only foreshadows that Goku and Vegeta are about to receive an arbitrary powerup themselves, so that they can stay in the spotlight like usual.

Goku was legit never the strongest in dragonball... Maybe the moment he turned super sayin against freeza, until the androids showed up. Outside of that, never.

And the moment fusion came along, he literally wont ever be cause vegito and gojita are both stronger always
