I always thought this was kind of weird :?
That always annoyed me, even if you revert back to base form, it's still gone.

Though I can understand it as being a little unfair to have access to all of Goku's forms AND a giant ball of energy in the sky.

My solution would be that once it reaches full power, just have it get weaker over time.

The Spirit Bomb scatters pretty easily, though. Goku lost most of the Saiyan Saga one when Vegeta attacked him.

Good point, maybe after a certain amount of damage the Genki Dama could dissipate, regardless of weather you're in base or SSJ?

All of the pictures this round are good. I have nothing bad to say about them and if there are really supposed to be 30 characters, they still got some more space...
[quote="SSj Kaboom talking about Future Gohan in BT3"]I feel sorry for Future Gohan.

Everyone's like, "What?! What are you doing with [b][i]two[/i][/b] arms?! You tear that off right now, mister!"

Ah well, I just noticed something in BT2 I forgot about for a long time...
The instant transmission kinda sucks ^^"

I mean, it's just not the best thing to evade attacks, of course it shouldn't be unfair using it, but then again it was used to evade attacks as well, wasn't it?

It seems weird to me that Goku for example is already (nearly) gone and then a blast hits him and he's falling down - seems not right xD

I hope this is changed a bit in BT3 :)

Not really. In DBZ, the only significant time Goku used it during a battle was to prepare the "warp" Kamehameha. Only in the Super 17 battle, in GT, he used it constantly through a battle, but then that strategy was easily defeated because Super 17 claimed to be able to keep up with his instant movement due to an energy flow that traced his movement.

I'm also hoping that other blast 1s like the solar flare being usable and not taking 5 seconds to activate.

The "IT" move is mostly useful for getting behind your opponent for a free hit. It's especially useful if you're a full stage length away or if they've lost their lock on you.

Wait....the Spirit Bomb was in BT2?

There was an empty space in my move list when I used Goku...

It's strange this hero thing. Whole lives devoted completely to helping others. For no financial reward whatsoever. Struggling ceaselessly against impossible odds, risking almost certain death to help those in trouble. I...I just hope its not catching, yes?

It was used quite extensively against Metal Coola.

ok... I completely forgot about the movies, and I only watched Metal Cooler's once...

Base Goku has to charge the spirit bomb at least once using his B1 move "Give me your energy" before you can use the UB spirit bomb.

I still think it's great how you can see the Spirit Bomb hovering in the sky after Goku starts charging it.

Yeah. Heck, if you position it right you can see the Spirit Bomb forming and/or growing when you charge it. I thought that was a neat little addition.

Go try it out. I think you can charge it 4 or 5 times and make it really huge.
