As a whole, Z is a good bit superior.

The only DBS material that I would put in the same tier are the ToP arc, the Broly film, and the Zamasu arc.

If Z = 10/10, then I'd probably put DBS at like 6/10 overall.

TOP was garbage. The only good part of DBS are Zamasu arc and Broly. DBZ is far, far superior.

I liked Return of F.

It gets writen off, but it was vintage Freeza. The arrogance, the treacherous betrayals. And he WON.

For him alone the film was awesome.

As a whole, you're not wrong about the ToP. There were a handful of episodes/battles that were really good, though.

Zamasu is probably in my top 3 villains of the franchise. Aside from the fact that his story was actually quite good(and original), he was also as close to a truly unbeatable being that we have ever seen in this lore.

The Broly film was just really solid overall, and up there with any Z material.

Jiren was such a bore that it was hard to like TOP. Discount broly aka Kale and Caulifla were just embarrassing to watch.

The standouts of the ToP for me were:
Omen Goku vs. Jiren (round 1)
Omen Goku vs. Kefla
GoD Toppo vs. Vegeta
Omen/MUI Goku vs. Jiren (final)

...And maybe a few other things sprinkled in here and there. But considering the arc was over 50 episodes long, that really isn't a good ratio. 😂

The manga was more concise while keeping a lot of the good.

Ironically given what a slog the next arc became.

And Gohan vs Kefla was unique to the manga, and one of the best fights of the ToP imo.

What's better, DBS or GT?

DBS by a mile.

The only good thing among that was Vegeta vs GoD Toppo. srug

GT was just unwatchable.

DBS, definitely. I liked a few things from GT, but as a whole it just... Wasn't good.

That said, I still think SS4 is the best looking Saiyan transformation design to this day.

Damn, you REALLY hated the ToP. 😂

Beerus vs What if Ultron/Vision (with the gems). Who is taking this?
I still don't see Beerus beating an IG user.

My post was an animation IG user (that was extremely powerful mind you. The guy bit a Galaxy to dust). Comic IG users are a different beast.

👆

Even though Vultron's feats massively outclass anything Thanos did, the MCU Infinity Stones still haven't shown nearly the same amount of power/versatility that they have in the comics.

Anyway, the MCU Guardians were able to 'blitz' Vultron to the point where he was unable to gather a cohesive thought and effectively use the stones against them(for a time.) So I imagine that a being with Beerus' speed/strength/power could end things rather quickly -- if not through sheer power, then by just snatching the gems off Vultron's chest... Assuming that Beerus takes the fight seriously from the onset and doesn't play around, obviously. Because he can still lose to the MCU IG if he f*cks around.

The guardians were amped though. Carol blitzed him and dug him through a planet and it did absolutely nothing. I feel that Strange power had a huge play in their attacks and speed working against him.

Dark Strange used his magic to create protective shielding for the Guardians. He didn't amp any of their powers/stats.

Just occured to me:

Everyone thinks Vegeta is really petty about losing, but notice he never once tried to "get back" at Android #18?

Have they ever even had a conversation? Because she really went all in hurting his pride, so I imagine family gatherings and parties and such must be awkward... for her.

This. They were just magical protection spells - Strange even says so.
