Yeah, originally the manga was created to advertise the anime, but things have changed since the U6 tournament. Toyotaro has his own style/his own story now that slightly differs from the anime. It turns out that Toyotaro was the one who came up with the idea of Vegetto returning in both the manga and the anime.Furthermore, we recently learned that Toyotaro sends his drafts to Toriyama (who is the ultimate source of DB/DBZ/DBS canon,) who then looks over/approves/makes changes to Toyotaro's drafts. We have no reason he does the same with Toei (who seems to prefer to do things their own way).
As such, there is really no reason to believe the anime is any more canon than the manga, and it's entirely possible that the opposite is true.
Here's the scan of the IG overpowering the UN:
Keep in mind that this was an incomplete IG. No way in hell does Zen-Oh not only have that depth of power, but also that versatility in terms of having mastery over all aspects of reality. I genuinely don't think it's much of a fight.
Regarding the actuality ripple, I'd argue it's far more impressive than what Jiren did because of a few reasons:
Jiren shook a single infinite dimension, (if we assume the dimension was nothingness, then Jiren didn't really shake anything. The best we could say is that his ki "reached" infinity). Thanos, on the other hand, sent a shockwave across a transfinite ("beyond infinite"😉 Multiverse, with various higher dimensions, dimensional barriers, pocket realms, etc. And in reaching the Beyond Realm, it reached a level where even the Marvel Multiverse, "dwindled into utter insignificance":
Toyotaro is directly involved in both the anime and manga. As the anime is further along thus far, it is considered the primary canon, whereas the manga is more of a rendition of Toriyama's acceptance of Toyotaro's story. Basically Toriyama has very little to do with the anime, and more with the manga. Toriyama himself though has admitted that Toyotaro is probably more consistent at this point though- because Toriyama's mind has been slipping. He can't even remember most things from the original series, that he wrote all by himself. He forgot Launch even existed, after her appearance in the Saiyan saga. Sadly, at this point, Toyotaro's work is more cannon than Toriyama's. He's said so himself in multiple interviews, and refers to Toyotaro as the person he's essentially "passing the torch onto". Therefore, the manga and anime are both canon in their own sense, but the anime is further along, making it the primary canon.
Anyways,
Eh, that scan is unimpressive, in my opinion. That didn't show the gauntlet overpowering the UN, it just showed it stopping someone from using it. Have there been other showings, more definitive than this? I assumed you meant that someone used the UN on an IG user, and it didn't work, or something of that nature. In the scan you just showed, the UN didn't even get used, lol. That's a cop-out, from what I can tell.
No, I definitely agree that it's more impressive than what Jiren did, lol. For sure. I'm just saying that it's not so impressive that it makes Jiren's feat seem insignificant, which is what you're seeming to suggest. It could even be considered a similar feat, if we take the "world of void" to be what it was stated to be- which is infinite. It's basically an infinite dimension, according to the statements about it thus far. If that's true, it basically did exactly what Thanos' ripple did, just without reaching the Beyond. Whether this is comparable or not, we can't be sure, but it can definitely be argued as such.
Also, I'm not arguing that Zeno is as strong as the IG, lol. I'm saying, in fact, that he's not. At least going by his current feats. He's multiversal though, and he hasn't been serious once, lol, so that could certainly change as more of his character is revealed. However, Jiren has enough feats to put him on a level where he could potentially snag the gauntlet from Thanos, and defeat him. Even if he would need to be off-guard to allow this to happen. Thanos DOES have a subconscious desire to lose.
We just don't really know enough about Jiren or Zeno, at this point, to say definitively whether they would win or not. So for now, they lose. *shrug*
