Perhaps some extras about Nappa..
1. Chapter 217(DBZ 23) P 7.6
Doesn't Piccolo in the 6th panel state something about Nappa's strength?.

2. Chapter 218(DBZ 24) P 14.3
And I'm pretty sure 3rd panel Piccolo says something like "incredible" or something in the context of Nappa surviving Tenshinhan's Kikoho.

3. And this one as well:
Chapter 219(DBZ 25) P 1.2
Second panel Piccolo, I'm sure says something about Nappa being invincible/unbeatable or something.

4. Chapter 219(DBZ 25) P3.3-3.5
And on this page Piccolo states that they are stronger, than Raditz and that they don't stand a chance.

5. Chapter 219(DBZ 25) P5.2
I'm sure something's stated about Nappa being unbeatable, while flying.

6. Chapter 220(DBZ 26) P2
And here the only way of winning is to grab his tail and if Gohan doesn't follow the plan then they are all doomed.
Also this:

Chapter: 320 (DBZ 126), P4.5
Freeza: “Son Goku had done well…With Freeza as his opponent, he was completely winning the fight through overwhelming strength…But the cornered Freeza wiped Planet Namek itself out…”
Kaio is the one who said that, not Freeza :P

OK, more typos and additions dealt with. Hopefully I'm all caught up now.
Chibi Mystic Gohan wrote:True, but I think Herms is more or less going for a complete list of quotes, so why leave that line out? (Unless he left that one out on purpose...)
Well, I did leave some things out if I felt they were redundant (ie that they didn't say anything that hadn't been said elsewhere). I didn't want to include every random tournament audience member who calls Goku amazing, for instance. I only left some such quotes out, mind you, and not necessarily every quote that could be considered redundant. It kind of depended on what my helper elves felt like noting, and how energetic I was at the time when going over my parts of the series (ie how much I felt like noting everything and anything). But anyway, where exactly is this Dabra quote you're talking about? I'll include it if you think it's important.
Nazi Cola wrote:The quote(s) on Gotenks' strength in the RoSaT should be included, too, I think (pretty sure someone already brought this up, but eh). I can't remember if it's one of the kids or Piccolo that say Gotenks in his normal form should be able to take Super Boo on, but yeah. That would imply that Base Gotenks then is stronger than his Super Saiyan form from before, but I'd like to see the exact quote(s) and the context if possible.
That's definitely in there, under #BO3#GTK#REG:

Chapter: 489 (DBZ 295), P3.5
Context: Trunks doesn’t like the idea of fighting Boo as a Super Saiyan 3 from the start
Trunks: “I think…that we’ve already progressed so much that even in a regular state Fusion, we’ll be about equal with Majin Boo...”
Kanzenshuu: Is that place still around?
Sometimes, I tweet things
We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.

I think I've seen another typo.
Herms wrote:Chapter: 139, P13.2
Piccolo: “I'm…impossible. Does this mean that there are people in this world capable of defeating our Demon Clan warriors…!”
Piano: “”Un-unbelievable!”
Context: after he kills Cymbal
I think you mean “it's impossible”.

No what it should have said is I'm.. impossible.(I can't write it due to Daizex auto correcting) :lol:
The typo(actually not Herms' fault) was that it types the abbreviation of I am(I'm), when it should have been the starting letters of "Impossible."

You know, I'm not entirely sure. Does anybody else recall Dabra saying that he can't be defeated by 3000 Kiri?

All he does is being incredibly confident in his own abilities, even though he knows Goku has at least 3000 Kiri, which of course means he's way stronger than that, but he didn't state it directly.
From the danish version in panel 1 he said something about being able to solve all of Babidi's problems, while in panel 2 he says that he'll go to stage 3 and claim that Buu's egg is going to be filled with energy. And Herms already took care of the rest in this very thread.

Go to the first page of this thread and press "Ctrl" & "F" at the same time. If you don't have a bar popping up right beneath your current tab, then tell me, which browser you are using.

On Amazon, RightStuf, and many other fine retailers.

...Herms is referring to FUNimation's DVDs, if it's not obvious.

This never got answered(well at least in this thread):

Vegeta: “Hmph…Don’t try sparing my feelings…The truth is you were right [that I’d be killed]. That Boo is stronger than I imagined…And so are you, Kakarot…
Does Vegeta literally say "Kararot...You too..." or something, Herms?

Literally it's along the lines of "That Boo is stronger than imagined...Kakarot, you too". Kinda ambiguous I guess, and in the past I did translate it as Vegeta saying that Boo is stronger than both he and Goku imagined, but on reflection I think it's much more likely that Vegeta's saying both Boo and Goku are stronger than he (Vegeta) imagined.

I would think it makes the most sense, that Vegeta is speaking about himself compared to Goku and Boo, since he previously thought that he could take Boo, but in the next chapter he admitted, that only Goku was capable of fighting him.
So basically Vegeta severely underestimated Pure Boo and hadn't realized the depths of Goku's power until now explaining his comment. That's my interpretation anyways.

Don't know if this has been covered yet, but Herms, I found a variation.


Gohan on Initial Fat Buu....Something of the sort of ....


Yea he's strong, but I could still manage something, at least with my true ability...

I've seen it translated several times, but can't find it on your strength checker. It should be in the Majin Buu section right after Gohan says, a Stupendous ki, and right before Vegeta and Goku's comments on Initial Fat Buu...

Its in the checker. He has it for Gohan, but I suppose he just forgot to put it under Majin Buu as well.
