Dragon Ball Super | The Ballad Of Jiren The Grey (Norihito Sumitomo) | By Gladius

I recreated Jirens Theme (Jirens Power Unleashed/Desperate Plan) and made it more somber to go with his tragic backstory. I also used Unwinnable Battle and Fearsome Foe to represent his terrifyingly unstoppable power as an adult.
For the art, I redrew some of the scenes from Jirens Backstory in the episode 127 “The Approaching Wall”, and edited in a few clips from the episode itself.
I called it The Ballad Of Jiren The Grey as a reference to the Ballades of the classical era, but also in reference to slow, emotional power ballads of the modern era.

Jiren doesn't need a theme song, The theme song needs him.
When Jiren goes to a gym, the weights lift themselves.
Jiren once uppercut a horse, we call it a giraffe.
When you are both the unstoppable force and the immovable object.
This means that Jiren doesn't need his own theme, the theme needs Jiren

I love the fan theory that Belmond was the one who killed Jiren's village as he spared only those with the highest potential on planets, since he wanted to find someone to replace him as G.O.D, Jiren eventually defeats Belmond but in an act of spite, refuses the role of G.O.D after learning the truth. Its why Toppo ends up G.O.D, despite being far weaker than Jiren (and why he doesnt trust anyone, since his entire life was basically out of his control until beating Belmond)

The chances of that are super unlikely tho. Belmod used to be a pride trooper and knew jiren before he became G.O.D so it would’ve been completely against his morals back then

@@TheAwsomeMannyExactly. He’s a former Trooper & he isn’t as malevolent or carefree as GoDs like Beerus. An example would be when he defended Marcarita when one of his concubines threatened her in the manga. It wouldn’t fit with Belmod’s character, even if he is acting like a selfish god.

Jiren is truly amazing, He went from a weak child to surpassing his God of Destruction, and without relying on transformations like Goku did, one of the best characters in DBS, Hercule still solos tho
When people ask, "can he beat Goku", Jiren is the only time anyone said yes.

idk, yes he snapped when goku tested him mentally and physically with ui and took it out on goku's friends but i think that was more about the ideals he held his whole life being threatened rather than him being grey morally or villainous or anything, and the pride troopers are the heroes of their universe and they all respect jiren
one of the rare characters who just powers up to get stronger...no transformations needed
The only thing I wish Super did with Jiren is explaining who killed his family. But other than that, Jiren is a BEAST!!!

Gladus posting peak as always, jiren is under rated fr fr he’s my favorite DBS antagonist because he literally represents gokus pursuit for strength and is want for a successor from DBZ, Jiren is goku but if he didn’t have the dragon balls, all of his friends died and without them to bring them back, jiren was the only one left to fight, he NEEDS to be the strongest because he believes no one else can be. Jiren is peak and he deserves more love as a character. We makin it out of the TOP with this one 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

"It's not possible. I cannot lose, I won't accept defeat. Might makes right and might alone! Without strength, we have nothing! If I don’t win, then all my effort, all I’ve struggled to achieve, all of it will have been pointless! I'll lose everything, just like I did before... and I absolutely refuse to go through that again! I cannot! I will not!" Once again my friend you absolutely killed it.

His backstory was so incredibly awful. It would have been cooler if he was a being born with this incredible power he couldn't control, and he himself accidently destroyed his village and planet. A character with all the power in the world who only trains to keep it in check, and a desire to use the super dragon balls to get rid of them, would have been the perfect foil to Goku.
Animation too??? Great job!🎉

Ever thought re-making DBZ Ocean Dub/westwood dub theme songs like the Army / the awakening theme, future trunks (ocean theme) , Power-up theme, the drumbeat (slow & fast ) and off course Oblivion and the androids theme, especially DBZ canadian dub rock the dragon opening theme and Ocean Vegito theme as well, sounds absolutely epic.- PS : Westwood/Ocean soundtrack are actually composed by Tom Keenlyside, John Mitchell and David Iris, these are the underrated DBZ/ Ruby Spears Megaman OST's

I’m sorry, it’s taking a while to finish. I was having trouble making it my own. Especially without the vocals, the vocals are so important and without them it risks feeling empty. I also tried to do the vocals but they didn’t sound as good as the original. But I think I might have figured out how to make it as an instrumental 🙏 Shouldn’t be long now :)
I wanna make the prediction that it will either be a Beerus medley, a Hit medley, or a Super Hero medley next.

Okay, there's a lot to unpack in this one. First of all, adding the animation part of Jiren's childhood and transitioning into Jiren at the Tournament of Power was just an absolute genius move! Not only it was genius, but you executed it flawlessly making it so genius. Witnessing Jiren's growth over the whole video was honsetly a pleasure to my eyes. The way you made Jiren build up to 3:40 with the closeup and adding the shaking really gave me chills when it went down to his unstable emotions. And of course, the HUGE anticipated build up which you made look so fucking amazing... and then... 4:35 - enough said about that, people need to see and hear it with their own eyes & ears. You really did cook us a masterpiece here for sure!!! Every time you show out of nowhere in my perspective and nail another epic video. Sometimes you turn my days around because of how hyped I get from your content! Keep it up, 10mil is over the horizon ;)
