Jiren

## Background

Abandoned by his friends after the death of his family at the hands of an evil entity, Jiren trusts only his absolute strength to guide him to victory, and not the strength of friends or family, believing strength alone to be his salvation from failing to protect those he cared about.

The strongest adversary ever faced by Son Goku in the entirety of Dragon Ball's history, he will stop at nothing to defend his pride and the pride of Universe 11.

## Powers & Abilities

* **Superhuman Strength, Speed & Durability**
* **Flight:** The ability to take flight through the manipulation of *ki*. Combined with his ability to survive the vacuum of space and his tremendous speed, Jiren's flight leaves any spaceship useless to travel from one planet to another.
* ***Ki* Blast:** The most basic form of energy attacks.
* ***Ki* Sense:** The ability to sense *ki* and power levels.
	+ **Godly *ki* sense;** The ability to sense *ki* and power levels of deities.
* **Kiai:** A burst of *ki* used to repel targets. In the manga, Jiren's usage of this was strong enough to effortless repel Perfected Super Saiyan Blue Goku.
* **Power Impact:** Jiren's signature move, Jiren fires a red-orange *ki* blast in the form of a fireball. It starts out relatively small but expands massively upon impact. He used this attack to stop Kale's rampage and several times throughout the Tournament of Power. While powered up greatly he can fire it like a normal ki blast but then it increases in size massively.
	+ **Counter Impact:** After successfully blocking an opponent's attack, Jiren teleports to his distracted opponent and surrounds them within a sphere of *ki*, electrifying them before it detonates.
	+ **Colossal Slash:** Jiren gathers *ki* in both hands and combines them into a single powerful sphere and lifts it above his head before launching it at the opponent.
	+ **Overheat Magnetron:** Jiren charges at the opponent with a barrage of punches and blasts them away with a Power Impact. He then appears behind them and lands more punches, sending the opponent crashing into the ground. When at his full power, Jiren charges another Power Impact in the form of a massive energy sphere.
		- **Heatwave Magnetron:** Jiren powers up and blasts the opponent away with an Energy Punch. He then charges a Power Impact surrounded by purple sparks in his left hand and fires it into an energy wave with his right hand. In the anime it is only utilized after Jiren has awakened his hidden power.
		- **Omegaheat Magnetron:** The ultimate energy wave used by Super Full Power Jiren, a colossal right-handed blaze of fiery *ki* fired at the opponent.
* **Meditation:** A technique where Jiren sits or hovers in place while meditating. It is a super skill in *Xenoverse 2*. After meditating for a few seconds, it sets the user's ki at 1000 (10 bars) and grants them automatic ki regeneration.
* **Energy Punch:** Jiren charges his fists with red ki and launches powerful punches. These are simply Jiren's normal punches when he is displaying a hint of his true power. These punches are also strong enough to eradicate Goku's Kamehameha even when the latter is in Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken.
	+ **Power Rush:** Jiren charges at the opponent and delivers a rapid flurry of punches and kicks before sending them flying with a powerful punch.
	+ **Blazing Magnetron:** Jiren generates a volcanic explosion, then charges his fist with massive energy and delivers a punch that triggers a massive explosion.
* **Energy Barrier:** Jiren's *ki* is powerful enough to serve as a barrier against considerably weaker attacks. Upon releasing his full power, this barrier became more powerful to where it is able to shield Jiren from the likes of Goku's Kamehameha, Vegeta's Final Flash, and an energy beam from Android 17 simultaneously.
* **Invisible Eye Blast:** Jiren's *ki* is so intense, that even by releasing it through his glare, he can unleash a force blast able to repel all but the strongest of enemy attacks. With it, he was able to fight back Goku's Universe 7's Spirit Bomb, block Golden Frieza's murderous assault, and even disperse Super Saiyan God SS Evolved Vegeta's Final Flash.
* **Infinity Rush:** Jiren is capable of moving at extreme speeds, which allows him to launch a barrage of powerful punches in an instant. He can also use this attack by simply glaring at his opponent. When he does this, Jiren moves so fast that from other's perspectives, he doesn't seem to be moving at all.
* **Shock Tornado:** A counterattack which Jiren grabs the opponent's hands, after catching their punch, and then twists them, spinning them in midair.
* **Colossal Uppercut:** Jiren charges his fist with powerful energy, then delivers a mighty uppercut. Used to deflect Goku's Kamehameha.
* **Grand Charge:** Jiren charges at the opponent with his shoulder while enveloped in a purple barrier.
* **Burst Impact:** Jiren swings his fist, creating a fiery shockwave that engulfs its target.
* **Super Warrior Unit that Crushes Everything:** A team attack used with Gogeta and Hit, where Jiren and the latter contribute energy to Gogeta's Ultimate Kamehameha to drastically increase its power.
* **Pure Progress:** In the manga, Jiren is shown even more dangerous once he is forced onto the defense. Through sheer determination and his immeasurable potential, he is able to improve his performance - letting him better adapt to his opponent's abilities - in short periods of time, allowing him to rapidly increase his reaction time and combat efficiency while fighting Ultra Instinct Goku.
* **Vacuum Survival:** In the manga, Jiren is able to survive in the vacuum of space as he proved able to travel through the vastness of space from one planet to another, finding it the quickest way to continue his duties.
* **Power Up:** Jiren has the ability to increase his combat abilities by focusing his *ki*. His control over it is also remarkably high, able to summon tremendous amounts instantly and with no visible effort. Once unleashing the true force of his power, Jiren's body admits a red aura that takes on a texture similar to that of fire and an additional layer, appearing as if he is literally burning with a double aura.

## Transformations

### Full Power

When channeling the full force of his power, Jiren's aura changes: in the anime it takes on a texture similar to that of fire and an additional layer, appearing as if he is literally burning with a double aura. In the manga Jiren simply gains red/orange sparks around his powered up aura. In the anime, when powered up, Jiren can take down Super Saiyan Blue Kaio-ken Goku, Super Saiyan God SS Evolved Vegeta, and Android 17 at the same time. He was able to easily overpower True Golden Frieza, and even outmatch Goku's third usage of Ultra Instinct Sign. However, against Perfected Ultra Instinct Goku, Jiren was outclassed by Goku's newfound power. In the manga, with his full power Jiren is able to compete against Perfected Ultra Instinct Goku long enough for Ultra Instinct to wear off. This state of Jiren is playable in *Dragon Ball Heroes* starting from Universe Mission 1, referred to as "**Full Power**" Jiren. It is also playable in *Dragon Ball Z: Dokkan Battle*, under the name "**Absolute Power**" Jiren.

### Burning Ultimate Warrior

In the anime, as Perfected Ultra Instinct Goku continued to overwhelm Full Power Jiren and defeat became apparent for him, Jiren's disdain for it (from the memories of his past trauma), let him awaken a much deeper level of his dormant potential. Breaking well-beyond his previous limits, Jiren unleashed a newfound power so intense, the very release of it caused the top portion of his Pride Trooper uniform to be blasted off, and set the tournament ring ablaze with fiery *ki*. The release of his unthinkably colossal *ki* was unbelievably intense, that the World of Void was violently shaking as his fiery *ki* was scorching everything around him in intense heat akin to an active volcano. He also gains a substantial increase in muscle mass in this form as well as causing veins around his body to bulge out. When powering up and unleashing his aura, it appears as a crimson sparkling aura somewhat similar to Goku's Ultra Instinct. This state is referred to as "Full Power" in *Dragon Ball Carddass*. In this state, Jiren was capable of going toe-to-toe with Perfected Ultra Instinct Goku, gaining enough power to bypass the instantaneous defense impulse of Ultra Instinct and even initially overwhelming Goku in raw power. While originally only accessed through his disdain at the thought losing and disappeared when he lost the will to fight, the words of encouragement from Top as he neared defeat against Golden Frieza and Android 17 allowed Jiren him to overcome the trauma of his past and consciously access his hidden power as result. In the manga, the exhausted Jiren attained this state when he began to be overwhelmed by Goku and Vegeta's combined assault at the end of the tournament, proclaiming he had no limits and allowing him to overcome their most powerful attack.
