Dragon Ball Super Finale Review!

Dragon Ball Super Episode 131 

The culmination of years of anticipation has reached it's apex with Dragon Ball Super Episode 131, ending the episodic Tournament of Power, and also bringing a tinge of joy and sadness to the hearts of all Dragon Ball fans the world over.  

The animation for this episode was incredible from beginning to end, I thought the finale was very satisfying and it was filled with amazing moments I never expected to see in Dragon Ball Super. Although Super has ended, Toei Animation has announced a Dragon Ball Movie being released on December 14th that will continue the story of Dragon Ball Super.

Last time on Dragon Ball Super, Goku achieved his mastered Ultra Instinct form. Goku fought with everything he had and when he was about to eliminate Jiren, Goku was affected by his prolonged use of Ultra Instinct.

Jiren used this opportunity to eliminate Goku but Goku was saved by Frieza at the last minute. We also found out that Android 17 survived the explosion and it became a 3 against 1 fight for the fate of their individual universes.

The finale begins with Frieza and Android 17 giving their all to fight Jiren. Jiren was weakened from his previous fight with Goku and Frieza attempts to use this opportunity to eliminate Jiren. Jiren is on his knees and seems like he has given up, but after a pep talk from Toppo, Jiren pushes his limits even further and fights back against 17 and Frieza. 

With Goku's help, they were able to break through Jiren's attack and Goku and Frieza fought side by side to fight Jiren, and yes you heard that right; Goku and Frieza fought side by side for the sake of Universe 7.

With the combined efforts of Goku and Frieza working together and giving their all, they were finally able to elminite the seemingly unstoppable Jiren and eliminated themselves in the process. With Goku, Frieza, and Jiren out of the ring Android 17 becomes the last man standing and is awarded one wish with the Super Dragon Balls.

Android 17 wishes to have all of the Universes that were erased to be restored, a noble and selfless wish to bring back all of those fighters who were only fighting to protect their universe. 

The Great Priest later reveals that Zeno-Sama was going to erase the winning universe if the winner made a selfish wish. Beerus tells Whis to resurrect Frieza as a thank you for saving Universe 7. With all of the Universes restored, Frieza returns to his old ways, and our heroes return home to earth. 

Goku and Vegeta continue to fight each other to prove which one is the strongest, Vegeta tells Goku to transform and use Ultra Instinct and Goku says that he can't transform, and when he surpassed his limits in the tournament, he must've done it on accident. How long will it be before we will see Goku use Ultra Instinct again? Who will be the next adversary that our heroes will have to face? When will Dragon Ball Super return? Keep your eyes on Careful 4 Spoilers for updates!
