During the actual tournament, his ideals and morals were pushed to their breaking point when his comrade K'nsi was eliminated from the fighting stage, leaving only himself, Jiren and Dyspo left fighting for Universe 11. When initially hearing about the Tournament of Power's rules and the amoral behavior of the Omni- Kings, he was secretly horrified and resorted to going to a bar to calm himself down from the stress. He can show signs of frustration, desperation and animosity when under severe pressure. In spite of his positive traits and stoic disposition, Top has limits. He also shows a dry sense of humor, as when Vegeta brushes him off due to being only the second strongest, Top immediately returns the taunt by also pointing out on how Vegeta too is only the second strongest to sarcastically mock him, infuriating Vegeta.
Top is not above taunting his enemies, as he does so to Gohan and Android 17 during their fight. This is likely because Universes 11 and 2 are similar in this regard and, as twins, the mortals on their realms would tend to agree to common methods. He also believes ritualistic transformations, such as the ones done by the Kamikaze Fireballs, represent true justice. In addition to respect, Top also has a very powerful sense of honor, fairness and fair play, as he criticized and even insulted Android 17 after the latter blasted Brianne de Chateau, Sanka Ku and Su Roas while they were transforming, stating that the pose of a warrior is justice, and that such a display should not be interrupted, to which Brianne acknowledged and thanked his understanding of it. In the manga, Top did not display resentment towards Goku and even appeared to be friendly towards him despite learning of his role in the Tournament of Power and their outcome. From that point on, he viewed Goku as a powerful warrior to defeat, not an evildoer to vanquish. However, during the Tournament of Power, when hearing from Goku's teammates about how he influenced and befriended them, he realized his misjudgment of Goku and no longer referred to him as such.
This desire to punish evil extended to the Tournament of Power, where despite claiming he had no desires for personal matters during the fighting, he clearly wanted a rematch with Goku. When initially meeting and battling with Goku, he was quick to label him as an evildoer and a threat to all universes, refusing to be friendly and repeatedly calling him a villain. Top's respect extends even to those he initially views as enemies. This was shown again when asked for forgiveness after abruptly jumping into the arena of Exhibition match and humbly requested to fight Goku.
Top has a strong sense of respect, which extends to the gods, shown when he is offended by Buu accidentally launching an attack towards one of them. In addition, despite his voice reigning supreme over the Pride Troopers, he will not try to stop Jiren from taking on someone in a fight, not only out of respect, but also because he knows that, as powerful as he is, even he cannot deter Jiren. He also has a humble side, shown when he admits that he is not the strongest in Universe 11 and that his close friend Jiren holds that title, while he is the second most powerful one.
He is level-headed, analytical and rational, the full degree of which are shown in the Tournament of Power, such as when he analyzed Dyspo's battle against Hit and acknowledged that the former's opponent was no ordinary warrior.Īs the Pride Troopers' leader, he is shown to be respectful to them, such as when he tried not to fill them with distress after learning of the tournament. In the manga, he is less inclined to pose and does not seem to preach justice as often as his anime counterpart does. He is incredibly flashy in his displays of justice, eager to pose when doing so. This is especially true, as he is the leader the Pride Troopers and has a tendency to name all his techniques as an extension of said justice, such as the Justice Flash - a trait shared with his comrades. Top is described as being a hot-blooded warrior of righteous justice. He sports a red and black spandex suit, which appears to be part of his team's attire. While sporting a well-muscled frame apart from his portly midsection, his overall body-type is noticeably disproportionate: he has comparatively short and skinny legs while his arms very long with massive hands that are bigger than his entire head. He also sports two perpetually prominent veins on his head. He has tan colored skin, yellow eyes with dark lines under them, and a large white mustache that covers his mouth.
