Re: Tori Bot isnt Omnipotent?
there something as above omnipotent or they might just be equal in rank since they magically share a contract regarding db verse which enables them to interfere with Toribot.
Re: Tori Bot isnt Omnipotent?
I'm pretty sure he is. As he is the ultimate ruler of Dragon Ball world standing above Zeno, he is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent.

Re: Tori Bot isnt Omnipotent?
This is an oxymoron. "Omnipotent" means all-powerful -- like, literally more powerful than anything or anyone else and having the power to do anything they want. You can't have "higher levels of omnipotence" or something "above omnipotent" or anything like that. If a character that was thought to be omnipotent is proven to be less powerful than another character, that just says that the first "so-called omnipotent" character wasn't actually omnipotent, just far enough ahead of everyone else that it might've seemed like it.above omnipotent
(As a side note, literally everything about the site linked in the original post makes me cringe. A whole site devoted to "what if so-and-so fought so-and-so" battles, "omniverse" which is a term spell-check dislikes almost as much as I do, the spelling/grammar of that post... it just keeps going and going... )

Re: Tori Bot isnt Omnipotent?
I'm pretty sure he isn't omnipotent if we go by the first volume's narration of being terrified by Oozaru Kid Goku, he also cannot be omnipresent because he seemed lost while wondering if he was at Penguin Village on the coast near Roshi's Island, however you could make a case that he is at least omniscient due to being the author and having the total word of what has, does, and will happen.

Re: Tori Bot isnt Omnipotent?
I thought Tori-Bot was an author avatar. Doesn't that make him all-powerful?

Re: Tori Bot isnt Omnipotent?
The concept of 'omnipotent' makes no logical sense in the first place.

No he's not. The DB copyright states "BIRD STUDIO/ SHUEISHA", with Bird beign's Toriyama's studio and Shueisha beigns the editors of Shonen Jump.Grimlock wrote:I'm pretty sure he is. As he is the ultimate ruler of Dragon Ball world standing above Zeno, he is omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent.
So, no. He isn't.

I'm fairly certain he's referring to this.DragonBallLove wrote:No he's not.

So, no. He isn't.
However, being an author avatar doesn't necessarily means they are omnipotent. Knowing Toriyama, Tori-bot will likely be bullied around by Zenno or Beerus if he were to appear.Daizenshuu 7 wrote:Toriyama Akira
The author
History: Born in the year 1955. A manga artist.
First Appearance: Chapter 480
Special Characteristics: The ultimate ruler of the DB world, and a far, fa~ar greater person than even Kaioshin. His likes include cars, bikes, plastic models, movies, dogs, and women. His dislikes include having his ideas rejected by his editor, rats, and his job.
Battles: For over 10 years, he bravely battled against having his editor reject his ideas. You should be intensely grateful.

I have the feeling you guys take creator characters that are written into the story as gag way too serious.

Re: Tori Bot isnt Omnipotent?
What copyright issue has anything to do with an in-universe character? This is like saying One Above All isn't the master ruler of Marvel because of the copyrights.DragonBallLove wrote:No he's not.

So, no. He isn't.
Re: Tori Bot isnt Omnipotent?
For what it's worth, when Tori-Bot appears in Dr. Slump, his power is acknowledged, but he's very rarely respected. I've said it in another thread, but if he were to appear, it wouldn't surprise me if he were frightened into taking a backseat despite having the power to end things himself.

Re: Tori Bot isnt Omnipotent?
Beerus is supposed to be a character in the story. Authors add their own person in most cases not really with an actual meaning. So that is a difference.Anime Kitten wrote:We take a food-obsessed cat who destroys stuff if he doesn't get pudding very seriously.

Re: Tori Bot isnt Omnipotent?
Would have to agree here. It's rare for an author (who isn't a bad fanfic writer) to do a blatant self-insert and portray it as something other than a gag. Stephen King got away with it in the Dark Tower because it actually made sense in that context. Not so much here.Cetra wrote:Beerus is supposed to be a character in the story.

Well, this is being taken too seriously. I'm just not surprised, that's all.
