This fight better be the best fight this season. If it doesn't make me come alive, then that won't be very super of them.

My assessment.

Explanations: Absolutely horrid just a superman wankfest.
Fight: Absolutely great, loved it.
Outcome: I expected it and am fine with it.

It doesn't matter if Goku had a chance or not but to show explicit clear cut bias by not even giving any of DBH material any time of day and completely glossing over them is very infuriating when you contrast it with how much they GLAZED Superman. It would've made fight infinitely more exciting if they hyped up Goku more instead of barely going over the material that he literally relies upon to even be in this fight instead of saying "oh yea it exists".

Yeaaaaaah Modern Toriyammer isnt the best when it comes to characters. The same guy who forgets entire concepts and characters in his own series.

Hell, he forgot Dragonball Super was called Dragonball Super.

Not the most reliable source of info.

Dragon Ball powerscalers when they try to use WOG and not even the creator of the manga is a reliably source:

Yea they're 0-2 when it comes to an accurate portrayal of DBH.

Yeaaah they kinda probably just wanted this to be "Goku vs Superman" so Heroes shit is minimal due to it not being associated with by casuals I feel like. I guess you could read the black info bars lol

Thank god they stated this part, DBZ Abridged unironically has created a number of blatantly untrue beliefs in the Dragon Ball fandom....to the point that I'd say it borderlines on character assassination.

Yes, Goku isn't winning father of the year awards anytime soon, but the dude's certainly a better father and grandfather figure then people would care to admit and I'm frankly sick of people parading Abridged Goku like he's the most accurate version of Goku out there.

Okay but to be fair Goku is still a terrible dad, not evil or a bad person, but he shouldn’t be raising kids

I also really doubt casuals know 100 years worth of comics and all this little super specific quirky comic knowledge about DC cosmology and feats. Simply relegating something that should've been much more to black info bars because they wanna use allocate more time to glaze Superman is insulting.

I mean even with an accurate portrayal the results would remain the same regardless but I understand the frustrations (especially since at least Xeno Trunks used DBH P&A while without context GvS3 is basically anime/manga Goku Vs canon composite Superman) but honestly it doesn't detract from the fight imo since A) Pretty much everyone accepted the outcome of Superman winning (again) B) The actual fight animation was sublime! C) Personality wise both characters were given the utmost respect.

Sure from a power-scaling perspective you can criticize or even nitpick the episode (I've been gulity of that in the past) but as a fan, its just a good time and that's all that matters in the end.
 
Anyway, i have to actually admit that this was much better than i was expecting.

Not in terms of analysis or outcome but in the animated fight and character portrayal, they actually feel like them instead of parodies.

THIS its what Goku VS Superman 2 should had be, and personally i may actually prefer this over the original.

Also i like Wiz and Boomstick commentary at the end about versus debating and what its the point, it was based.

While i don't like Goku taking another L. This fight made for the fact that it was not only awesome but it captured what makes both characters who they are and how they grow to respect each other for it in the end. That is awesome.

Makes me wish they did Ben 10 vs Green Lantern in this season if they were gonna be this well-written.

Personally prefer if we get Goku vs any other character beside Superman tbh.
