I thought the episode was awesome so fuck everyone who didn't.
Nostalgia to the max like freiza arc as a kid. I was pumped. Laughed and yelled at TV a couple times. Glad I chose to watch it in all its glory on my 70" in HD with surround. They pumped a lot of cash into these two episodes.
Jiren still doesn't give a shit but he had to give some effort to stop Goku's final attack. Given more time I don't doubt Goku could have pushed Jiren to 100% but DBS likes to tease.
I like more that it isn't follow the usual formula since usually after gaining a new transformation you shit on the guy like nothing before mattered until something retarded gets in the way (or your name is Gohan).
These episodes were great, everything about them. Fuck the haters.
How can Goku go all out in his new form if he only got the form because he took a spirit bomb to the face after being completely drained of energy.
My new prediction is all universes except 6 and 7 are erased, with 6 being the winner, but 7 is spared because Goku proved that mortals from U7 can surpass them all.

I think it's pretty clear from the comments about how he was landing better hits as time went on that we're gonna be told that was Goku just scratching the surface of this new form and when he regains it by the end of the ToP it's going to be much better.
Also, although I called it a new form, I'm not sure that's what it is. Seems like it might be an ability he can apply to any form like Kaioken or Instant Transmission. I don't really have a basis for that, but I wouldn't be surprised to see a blue-hair white-eyes Goku before it's all done.
We didn't even see his aura until he blocked Goku's last punch, which he did with one hand, and didn't get pushed back by it.
Jiren was definitely holding back. Didn't even see his aura/fighting spirit till the last second, which he effortlessly blocked Goku's shit and then discarded of him; then effortlessly blocked Hit's sneak attack
Goku was definitely going all out pre-Ultra Instinct. I feel like Goku had no idea what to do with that new form he attained though, and was just getting used to it before it ran out of juice.
As for the hit that Jiren blocked, finally showing his aura, I feel like it was more to do with Goku's form dissipating meaning the punch didn't pack near as much of a wallop as the earlier knee to Jiren's stomach. Could be wrong though. I feel like Goku only tapped into a small % of whatever this new form of his can do, otherwise, I don't feel like all the GoDs would have been so scared.
Jiren's still 100% Crisis Superman bullshit though. Strong as fuck for no reasoning. At least he isn't yelling "KAAAAKAAROTTTT" over and over.
Vegeta still hasn't gone all out and shown us his new form from his time in the hyperbolic time chamber before the tourney
Gohan and Vegeta will obviously fuse.
After revealing legendary SS I don't see 6 getting erased, and u7 ain't getting erased, so either 11 loses or we get some shenanigans prior to the end of the tourney that spares the universes still remaining.
I still can't believe my man Gomasu got erased. That shit was cold as fuck...
