Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse

When you consider in-universe time, it only took Vegetto mere days for his personality to shift/revert to that of Android arc Vegeta. When we first saw him in DBM, Vegetto acted more-or-less how he actually was in canon: Currently though, he seems to be 'Majin Vegetto' by comparison. They keep teasi...

Re: Why do people take "5 minutes Namek explosion" so seriously?

5 minutes on Namek is longer than how it is on Earth. Planet's have different rotations. Freeza was right about it taking 5 minutes to blow up since he was basing it off the time on Namek. I don't know about that, it seems that most races in DB share a common system of measurements, language, and e...

Re: Who is the Strongest Person in Hell?

If the premise of M12 is still a thing, I'd say the strongest person in Hell is Janemba or whatever other being takes the place of Janemba, if & when DBS/DBD decides to go down that route. Millions of years of collected evil sounds like it could be a greater threat than anything else in the seri...

Re: Jiren's power as of the Super Hero mvoie - My Take!

So, it's basically like Jiren has access to a power up in the way that Goku might boost himself with the Kaio-ken, except that the Kaio-ken is an indirect method of improving strength as it is a technique, while Jiren simply draws his power out directly by having learned to concentrate & release...

Re: The Kaioshin and the Makaioshin

I don't think we'll ever get more answers than what we have on the Makaioshin...unless Toyotaro decides to revisit it, as Toriyama doesn't seem too keen on expanding upon the idea despite it appearing as supplementary material in a couple different books. Not even SDBH has made any clarification on ...

What Will Freeza Want To Do With His Empire Next?

Freeza evidently controls quite a number of planets across the galaxy and according to Shin(if he's absolutely sure about it), there's only 28 planets with intelligent mortals in their universe. Now that Freeza's the strongest guy in the universe, is he going to try and conquer them all? Or will he ...

Re: Super and the narutoification of Dragon Ball (or why the meditation line actually matters)

Toriyama is the George Lucas of Shonen manga: His story was clearly based on something prior(Journey To The West, Kung Fu movies) as Lucas' story was(Flash Gordon, samurai films), and they both decided to change things up once their respective revivals(BOG, ROF, DBS/The Prequel Trilogy, The Clone Wa...

Re: If your post number were your battle power

I'm moderately stronger than Raditz, huzzah. :cry:
On a more positive note, I'm just above Nail with the Kaio-ken x20, but I would need to do fusion with someone to get anywhere close enough to taking on Freeza's first form.

Re: Where would you rank Super perfect cell power relative to SSJ2 Gohan?

Is it possible that the manga & anime depictions of the beam clash are getting mixed up and causing confusion here? The manga clearly shows Cell having the advantage against Gohan's momentary struggle of power flow and nearly winning until Vegeta distracted him, while the anime greatly drew the ...

Umigame. He has the lowest power level among anyone but he's old & wise enough to understand what the responsibility of having all that power means. Imagine seeing an Umigame from an alternate timeline being Beerus' replacement in SDBH? The attack name of Turtle Destruction Wave would have such ...

Re: Where would you rank Super perfect cell power relative to SSJ2 Gohan?

The manga & anime have somewhat different depictions of the beam clash so it would probably be better to just go with the manga, as it is the quicker, simplified version. It's made clear that half of SSJ2 Gohan's power(essentially, his SSJ form) was inferior to SPC, and Perfect Cell as well for ...

Re: Why is Goku bored?

I'm guessing the actual question here is "why does Goku still desire to find challenges against bad guys, as opposed to simply training with & fighting good guys for the rest of his life?" I think Goku just enjoys the thrill of fighting someone who won't hold back against him as a resu...

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Manga Chapter 97 - Official Discussion Thread

If there's one thing the manga should do, is make Cell Max start to take on some of Perfect Cell's physical features to signify it's boost in power as well as to change it up a bit more from the movie. If the fight ends with Cell Max's face starting to shift into the more human-ish look of Perfect C...

Re: The All-Purpose "What-If " Thread

What if every Saiyan on Planet Vegeta inexplicably & spontaneously transformed into SSJ3 just minutes before Freeza launched his blast at the planet? How would history change if the Saiyans not only did not go extinct, but also had the full potential of the SSJ transformation unleashed?

Re: Where did the idea of Goku getting the heart virus on Yardat came from?

I vaguely remember Yamcha and Chi-Chi saying they'd take the medicine too, so it is infectious. Goku doesn't hang out with his friends that much. Gohan, Piccolo and maybe Chi-Chi were the only ones he saw frequently in the present, so maybe Piccolo is immune and Gohan and Chi-Chi just got lucky? Al...

Re: Is Dragon Ball GT an Alternate Timeline?

Bra probably inherited her mother's genes and looked older than what she actually was.

Not that it's any reason for ad...

Re: Where did the idea of Goku getting the heart virus on Yardat came from?

On that note it would have probably been a better idea writing-wise for Goku to have come down with some kind of genetic heart disease as opposed to the heart virus. I do think it is very possible that this was the case. It's true that the heart virus was a thing in Trunks' timeline and that people...

Re: Where did the idea of Goku getting the heart virus on Yardat came from?

It's interesting how no one else among the team caught the virus despite frequently being around Goku, implying that the virus was either unique in that it only affected Goku...or it wasn't a virus. It's possible that the medicine that Trunks gave Goku was merely a placebo or had been regulated to b...

Re: Do you think King Cold has the same potential as his son?

He was probably not a 1:1 with his son in terms of potential or the absurdly fast rate of growth that Freeza has, but Cold definitely should have been able to greatly increase his power if he had trained as well. Cold's lifetime of being a tyrant made him more-or-less on par with Freeza's 4th form o...
