Why Broly and Jiren aren't even close

summation

Scaling fan power of various characters dragon ball It has been going on for as long as the franchise has been on the air. There are many ways fans have compared characters' powers over the years, but one of the best ways to gauge how powerful a character is compared to others is to look at the feats and battles against the same opponents they have shared.

one of the hottest debates dragon ball The fandom is a place where people ask who is the stronger character between Broly and Jiren. Both of these characters served as main antagonists in the story arcs in which they appeared, and both were much more powerful than Goku and Vegeta's most powerful forms. So let's take a look at who is the more powerful character between the two, and why the answer is actually pretty clear.

See who is stronger among them

Despite all the differences in powers and abilities, Broly and Jiren are quite similar in many ways. For example, when they were introduced, they were much stronger than Goku and Vegeta in their Super Saiyan Blue states, enough to completely ragdoll the heroes in one go in their most powerful forms at the time. These two mortals proved that you don't need a ki god to reach the highest level of power.

In fact, both antagonists required power-ups far more powerful than anything that came before to defeat them. Now the fandom is divided between whether Jiren as Ultra Instinct Goku or Broly as Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta was more impressive, but what's clear is that there was no significant power boost beyond what they already had. This is how Goku or Vegeta can defeat these enemies. However, through contextual analysis and additional clues within the comics, we can deduce that Broly may be the more powerful of the two, at least for now.

The main reasons are identified below: supervisor comic book; The point is that kishin or any other new technology is not needed to subdue the person using it. In the comics, Beast Gohan and Granolah's incredible speed made Ultra Instinct Goku's instinctive dodge so fast that he could not react to their attacks, and Broly's unparalleled potential allowed him to eventually overpower Goku when he used Ultra Instinct in battle. It shows. .

Jiren also held his own at first, but Ultra Instinct Goku toyed with him until the end of the fight. Furthermore, Goku and Vegeta were much more powerful compared to Broly in the Tournament of Power due to their Zenkai Boost, so this knowledge allowed Broly to beat them more ruthlessly in his base form than previously thought.

I was convinced that my strength was nearing its peak. But then this guy showed up and he was much stronger than me! He's probably stronger than Beerus!

Additionally, in order to defeat Broly, Super Saiyan Blue Gogeta was needed, which was not only the combined strength of Goku and Vegeta, but also an additional boost to the power gained from the Fusion Dance. Although many argue that Fusion could have done this even in his normal Super Saiyan form, he felt that he needed to go Blue to get the job done as quickly and efficiently as possible. With all this in mind, Broly holding on for this long is a sign of how strong he is, as Gogeta is much stronger than Ultra Instinct Goku.

Part of the argument here is how quickly Jiren dispatched Golden Frieza compared to Broly, who continued to beat up Golden Frieza for an hour. The answer to this is: superhero Vegeta states in the movie that Jiren's power during the tournament was not much greater than his or Goku's and that his level of Ki control was much superior. So while this shows that he knows how to maximize his power, Broly was in his frantic Berserker state attacking his enemies without even thinking about what he was doing. In a conversation about who is the stronger warrior, Broly wins.

Will it always stay this way?

What is the answer to this in my current setup?

The answer to this question is pretty clear based on what fans have seen in the series, but it gets tricky once again when it comes to guessing how the battle between the two will play out from where the story is currently taking place. Broly has perfected his Berserker Saiyan state and is able to control his powers even more than before, but fans have no idea what Jiren has been up to since the end of the Tournament of Power.

A combat genius and adept at controlling and applying his powers, it's entirely within the realm of possibility that Jiren would unlock some version of Ultra Instinct. After seeing Goku unlock the condition during the tournament, Jiren may have trained for years to do so as well, and seeing how calm and collected he already is, he could achieve it much easier than Goku. If this were true, or if he had unlocked some other kind of power-up, this debate would definitely happen again.
