^ can't people just get stronger without having to transform? Although SS3 Vegeta is interesting from a simple curiousity standpoint, I think it is a really ugly transformation and has a lot of downsides, like being unstable outside of the Heavenly Realm. I'd much rather have him just be stronger in base form or SS2 form.

I'm well aware it's a sneak-peek of what's to come, but I just didn't think we'd get such different accounts of how the events would occur. It seems like they just told Toyotaro to come up with a scenario, where Beerus remembers Super Saiyan God. I don't have a problem with that, it just surprised me, they'd do it like that.

Sure but strength isnt always the factor in the fight, Characters in DBZ are already powerful enough to blow up planets and solar systems but their other factors such as speed and durability is not that good. Goku was simply too slow to land any hits on Beerus therefore simply becoming stronger wouldn't really impact his speed much. I mean didn't Beerus felt a slight pain from that bullet that hit him in the forehead? now try getting hit by Goku's fist that would be millions times more painful than that lolirreality wrote:^ can't people just get stronger without having to transform?

In the latest RoF film, we also see how Whis is able to move both Gokus and Vegeta attacks away from him with just his palm, its not like he was tanking those attacks, they were just simply missing him. Now who do I think would win in a fight between Andromeda Shun and Whis? I personally think with what we seen Whis do, he could probably beat bronze cloth Shun no problem but maybe with some effort no doubt. But when it comes to God Cloth Shun, I think he would stomp Whis with ease, just because there is going to be a huge difference in terms of speed and durability between them.
Point is that transformations are important because they go beyond the biological limits of your speed, durability and even strength.

Eh, not really. With only like...a very rare few exceptions (Trunks' super-buff SSJ form), getting "stronger" in DB/Z means your strength, speed, durability, etc. all increase. Your overall "battle power" increases. Pretty much every significant bit of training does this, pretty much every transformation does this.GokuRules987 wrote:Sure but strength isnt always the factor in the fight, Characters in DBZ are already powerful enough to blow up planets and solar systems but their other factors such as speed and durability is not that good.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
I disagree with the speed and durability thing in DB to me they usually scale with the the characters Ki and strength. I believe that DB characters can basically tank anything that is below their power or just equal to them but the only time a DB character can be hurt by something that's not extremely powerful is when they're able to suppress themselves below that attacks level. I think the bullet was just a bit of a gag scene I wouldn't say Beerus felt pain from it, but getting away from that, as we know Goku can punch quite hard pre god, I'm sure you know know he punches a lot harder as a SSJG and Beerus had no trouble taking hits from that Goku. Usually in DB when character A is more powerful than character B they are normally better in all departments.GokuRules987 wrote: Sure but strength isnt always the factor in the fight, Characters in DBZ are already powerful enough to blow up planets and solar systems but their other factors such as speed and durability is not that good.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
How far do you guys think the creators will go in changing stuff from the movies? Honestly I hope that if they change anything big, it will be the time-reversing ability of Whis.
I seriously hope that they will scrap this, it gives way too much power to the character, and since they are on Goku's side, it takes away so much of the tension, since there is really nothing to fear even in the worst scenario, since Whis can restore it (okay, okay, I know, the Dragon Balls themselves are taking away the risk of something bad happening permanently, but still..). Unless of course we'll go to heights where even Whis is killed... I believe that it should either be scrapped, or be given a very serious limit.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
Before DBSuper was announced, let alone getting info about it or watching the episodes, I've always had the theory that at some point between BoG and Fukkatsu no F he had reached - or become able to reach - Super Saiya-jin 3, just like Goku, to put him on par with him, and then underwent the same ritual to reach Super Saiya-jin God, which basically enhances the maximum power level of a Saiya-jin by a given degree instead of being an actual incremental transformation like all the other stages of Super Saiya-jin. According to this theory, Vegeta basically WOULD have underwent the same exact process Goku did (although he achieved each stage at a different, later time), and was as strong as Goku in each stage: Super Saiya-jin - Super Saiya-jin Dai Ni Dankai - Super Saiya-jin Full Power - Super Saiya-jin 2 - Super Saiya-jin 3 - Super Saiya-jin God - Super Saiya-jin God Super Saiya-jin. Of course, with the retelling of the events of BoG in different circumstances will mean that IF all of this actually happens to Vegeta, it will happen during the Beerus arc in DBSuper or shortly after, in the first episodes before the Freeza arc. He might just skip Super Saiya-jin 3, though, my theory is just that, a theory.sintzu wrote:With him saying more then once he doesn't want to remain #2,hopefully by that he means he wants to reach Ssj3 and Bulma getting hit will probably be the thing he needs to do it.MaGyunia wrote:It's a good thing to have Vegeta recover his full obsession to become the best.

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
In fact, the whole environment of Fukkatsu no F made the viewers' feel the lack of real tension and the inability by Freeza to, even after reaching a level of power close to/on par/above Super Saiya-jin God and Super Saiya-jin God Super Saiya-jin Goku and Vegeta, become a serious menace. On one hand, we had Beerus and Whis present, so even if Goku and/or Vegeta failed, they'd eventually take care of Freeza themselves. On the other hand, as you pointed out, Whis' time-reversal ability, although limited to 3 minutes, pretty much provides him with the ability to basically undo any damage done by anyone whatsoever, rethink the strategy and turn totally hopeless circumstances into an easy victory. On yet another hand, I've always defended Goku was holding back as SSJGSSJ during his fight with Freeza and even Golden Freeza, given how relaxed he always is throughout the movie, even when/after fighting Freeza in his Golden form, which suggests he never really ever viewed Freeza as capable of defeating or killing him or the others. Besides, both Goku and Vegeta as Super Saiya-jin God Super Saiya-jin would be eventually able to take care of him. All of this combined can turn the experience of Fukkatsu no F as a failed attempt to have Freeza become a serious menace, so the entire atmosphere of the movie wasn't in any significant way more serious, dark or dramatic than the one in BoG.rolmanus wrote:How far do you guys think the creators will go in changing stuff from the movies?

Re: Official Announcement Thread & Discussion
I think one way to get away with Whis fixing damage time travel(manipulation is more accurate)without removing it, could be putting him out of the action(not killing him) beyond the 3min limit he has, for example:MaGyunia wrote:(...) On the other hand, as you pointed out, Whis' time-reversal ability, although limited to 3 minutes, pretty much provides him with the ability to basically undo any damage done by anyone whatsoever, rethink the strategy and turn totally hopeless circumstances into an easy victory.(...)
1.Damange happens.
2.Whis is not present for 5 minutes or more.
3.Damange can´t be undone.

Already I think everything is being done better, especially Beerus getting a flash back in the midst of an exploding planet.. pretty sick.
At this rate I just may ignore the movies all together.

I'm just imagining the internet uproar if we don't get a timeskip to 4 years after Buu and despite that Videl is pregnant during the confrontation with Beerus. Guess that would mean not only would Super be ignoring GT, but it would ignore end of Z as well, I'd be okay with that honestly.

I can't see them changing Whis' time manipulation ability, I think it has been put at 3 minutes so there are ways around it. I actually like that a DB character has a different ability like that.rolmanus wrote:How far do you guys think the creators will go in changing stuff from the movies?

To answer your question, I would like Toriyama and Toei to stick to the small things and just improve on the movies all round .

They could always change the ritual to require one less Saiyan, so Pan wouldn't be necessary anyway.ArchedThunder wrote:I'm just imagining the internet uproar if we don't get a timeskip to 4 years after Buu and despite that Videl is pregnant during the confrontation with Beerus.

Or there's Tarble, but there haven't been any hints of him appearing in Super so far.

I'm also ok with them retconning EoZ if it makes it easier to write Super. There's nothing I'd overwhelmingly miss if they do it.

But the whole saiyan ritual already sucks bad enough, just being able to hold hands like some power rangers makes the whole godly form too easy to obtain, How could mortals just create a godly ki? I dont understand that! Ahh well who am i fooling, I'll just treat this as an asspull and especially if they're planning to make even as a less challenge for Goku in which I wouldn't be surprised due to how rusty Toriyama's writing has become.
