The big hyped up anime battle between Son Goku and Jiren has finally been realized in Dragon Ball Super episodes 109 & 110. In Dragon Ball Super’s latest episodes we get a preview of the Mastery of Self-Movement transformation; Ultra Instinct. After failing to deal damage to Jiren with trump card, Goku is hit with his own attack. Soon after the Saiyan warrior is hit with a strange flow of energy which breaks the barrier surrounding his mortal limitations.

Dragon Ball Super is a 2015 shounen manga series, it is produced by Toei Animation and licensed by Funimation. It is currently available for streaming and DVD & Blu-Ray in English.

A Clash of Titans shakes the Tournament of Power.

Son Goku and Jiren; two mortals with power to rival the Gods have finally clashed in Dragon Ball Super 109 & 110. Even after throwing literally everything he could think of including Super Saiyan Blue and the Spirit Bomb, Goku couldn’t do anything against the Pride Troopers’ mightiest warrior Jiren. After facing the full force of his own aforementioned Spirit Bomb, Goku unlocks the fullest potential of his instinct, but even that (with the limited time he had to experience it) couldn’t put down the monstrous Jiren.

Breaking the barrier of one’s potential.

THE GOOD: It was previously reported that Toei Animation was pulling out all of the stops for Dragon Ball Super episodes 109 and 110, with almost everyone under the production company lending a hand to the series for the special, and I can say without a shadow of a doubt, that this was most certainly confirmed upon viewership. From music to animation everything was by far the most quality we’ve seen in Dragon Ball Super to date. While most of the focus went to the big behemoth battle between Goku and Jiren, there were some fun moments from other characters such as Ribrianne, Vegeta, and even Frieza.

The current pinnacle of the Tournament of Power.

THE BAD: Nothing in particular.

Goku vs Jiren round 2 will happen again soon.

OVERALL THOUGHTS: Dragon Ball Super ramps up it’s production value for an entertaining hour featuring the much discussed big fight between Goku and Jiren. The build for Jiren since the Tournament of Power has been amazing, and I’m genuinely interested in seeing how Universe 7 are able to stop him after Ultra Instinct barely even phased him. Granted, Goku had a limited amount of time with the transformation, but even so Jiren was barely using the low-end of his full power. Otaku Dome gives Dragon Ball Super Episodes 109 & 110 a combined score of 90 out of 100.
