So am I missing something? The final volume is released after 7 years... Meaning they can buy the full manga/manhwa/comic series... How is this a sad thing? It might even allow for another season of the animation adaptation...

Which gods? If you are referring to the Gods of Destruction, then no. Not even close. If you mean the Kaioushin, then yeah - but that's been a thing since the Android Saga. Don't say "officially" when in the manga the villains are still canonically weaker than the GoDs and the Angels.

Umm... Ultra Instinct and Mastered Ultra Instinct are the same form. Goku still needs a clear mind to use Mastered Ultra Instinct which is why he had to use the "True Ultra Instinct" to fight Gas, which isn't "True", but I digress. It's literally "Omen" , "True", and Mastered/Perfected. Beerus has the "incomplete" version which is the "Omen" variation.

Duke While that logic of yours makes little sense, since each Super Saiyan form is a build up over the last... This can easily be countered by using the actual canon. Trunks in Super Saiyan 2 was STRONGER than Super Saiyan 3 Goku. But Trunks was also just stronger in general than base Goku due to his heritage. Or Broly just being base form beating up Vegeta and Goku. By your logic, everyone has to be a certain capped strength in order for it to not be a thing. But not everyone has the same base powers. In fact, people who don't transform have higher base powers.

Duke Except in the Saiyan Free-for-all, Broly was the only one not tired while Goku and the others were exhausted after using their best forms, indicating that Broly was still stronger. He constantly adapts and gets stronger during the fight so it's safe to say that he might've started the brawl weaker, her ended the brawl stronger than Ultra Instinct.

Considering Goku needed a god form to beat SSJ Trunks, it's proven that Super Saiyan-wise, (SSJ2 counts since it's original name was "True Super Saiyan"/Grade 5) Goku nor Vegeta can contend with Trunks as mere Super Saiyans. Yes, with their God forms, they are stronger (manga-wise) but that's not what they were saying. Put them on Super Saiyan to Super Saiyan fights and Trunks wins, hands down.
