Isn't that a fallacy? I can't think of a reason for Obama drinking milk last night. Does that proves he never did?hleV wrote:for a non-existant reason

Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.
I don't think so? Even if there was, unless they were talking about Goku just retraining himself to that level, it'd contradict the series. Just his trip in the RoSaT alone more than doubles his power. So even if official, said supplemental information would be worthless.DBZGTKOSDH wrote:Wasn't there an official source that told us that SS Goku against Yakon was exactly as strong as he was on Namek, and showed us how many kiri is equal to one's battle power?

Well, back in my MFG days, I saw people on there using "Mastered Super Saiyan", which might be more appropriate. But "Super Saiyan Full Power" seems to be the norm here, perhaps because it has more of an official status.Bussani wrote:He probably means that how people use it is a bit of a fan term. I've come to believe that "Super Saiyan Full Power" isn't even a name of anything--it's just a subsection name. It refers to the point that Goku revealed his full power to Cell (in the chapter "Son Goku at Full Power" no less) and nothing more. It's fans who use that subsection title as the name for everything Goku and Gohan could do once they left the Room of Spirit and Time. However, it is at least convenient to use it as the name for, "Goku and Gohan as Super Saiyans after the Room of Spirit and Time training," because that doesn't roll off the tongue very well.Kaboom wrote:"Super Saiyan Full Power" isn't a fan-term. It's from, albeit only from, Goku's "Growing Up" biography in Daizenshuu 2. And while some amount of control over one's power while in Super Saiyan may have been seen before, only after the FPSSj training were Goku and Gohan able to restrain themselves to such a perfect degree that they were just walking around and chilling in the form as if it were their normal states, putting out next to zero energy all the while. That amount of control was unheard of before then.
