Re: Never noticed this...

The movies are so formulaic that it's actually pretty interesting to keep track of their tropes. Krillin will always get bullied and make a goofy face for comedic relief. Piccolo will always show up to save Gohan. Vegeta will make the coolest entrance in the film and then be used as the jobber. Ever...

Re: If Goku Cannot Fuse With Vegeta...

I say Jiren. He's close enough to Goku's size that they could probably get away with doing the dance (if Goku can do it with Vegeta than Jiren can do it with Goku). Some people would say their personalities clash, but you would also say that about Goku and Vegeta, and look how well their fusion turn...

Re: How *Low* Can PLs Go?

The trained warriors can reduce their ki down to 0. Gohan and Krillin made themselves completely undetectable by scouters, and Cell made himself undetectable to Piccolo and the others while he went from town to town absorbing people. Even a power level of 0.001 is detectable, and Goku can easily sen...

Create a plan for Batman with prep time to defeat Goku

This is a creative exercise. Not a battle or a debate. I am wondering if we can come up with some creative scenarios using our knowledge of Goku and his weaknesses. Batman is known to have contingency plans for defeating basically everybody on his Earth. Sometimes these plans fail, but he at least h...

Re: How long would it take for Indiana Jones to gather the Dragon Balls?

Finding all seven balls is meant to be a lifelong quest at least.

Re: GT and misogyny

Even though Pan didn't end up very strong she clearly wasn't useless. I still ended up liking the character very much.

Re: Saiyan regeneration ability

The saiyans have a higher vitality and a higher tenacity but I don't think they actually heal faster. They're just so tough that they'll keep fighting even after taking a bone-breaking injury.

Beerus gave her back exactly what she gave to him. It was a human-level slap.

Re: How Strong Does A Fighter Need To Be To Decimate An Entire Civilization?

I second the previous posters, it totally depends on the civilization and the fighter. RRA Goku essentially could do this with Earth in that arc but good luck with him trying to do that with Planet Vegeta. Planet Vegeta would probably need someone like Ginyu to stop an Oozaru King Vegeta and then a...

Re: How Strong Does A Fighter Need To Be To Decimate An Entire Civilization?

To conquer Earth you only really need to be as strong as RRA arc Goku. He defeated the world's most powerful army in one battle. Nothing else could have stopped him after that and he could have just went around destroying cities for awhile. In fact it's implied that an adolescent Kakarot going Great...

Re: When Piccolo Junior Was Born...

When Piccolo Daimaō had given birth to Piccolo Junior in the Piccolo Daimaō Saga, was Piccolo Junior right from birth equal in power to Piccolo Daimaō or was Piccolo Junior born slightly stronger than his very own father? If he started out equal he didn't power up much in all that time. I think he ...

Re: A Question About Great Full Power Ape: Limit Breaker...

SSJ4 was stronger than the Golden Great Ape. When a Golden Oozaru becomes a Super Saiyan 4, their power increases. So this limit breaker Great Ape will end up weaker than the limit breaker SSJ4 that we got.

Re: Dragon Ball Episode of Bardock - Ten Years.

Wow, crazy to think how different the landscape of the franchise was 10 years ago. I always kind of got a kick out of this special. It gave me some of the same good feelings as the mid-series movies. The promotional anime from the last couple of years gives me the same vibe now. Super Saiyan Bardoc...

Re: Dragon Ball Episode of Bardock - Ten Years.

Super Saiyan Bardock was the most savage guy in the series, I don't care if it makes no sense. He was legitimately goddamn cool.
