Re: Dragon Ball Daima: Episode 11 - Official Discussion Thread

Very cool concept with the varying levels of Majin Boo in these new characters. Apparently, Majin Koo is more Saibaman than 'Boo', and Majin Doo is more 'Boo' than Saibaman; establishing two brothers that are like an 'easy' & 'medium' to Majin Boo's 'hard'. I guess that would reflect in their st...

Re: Would a "Composite Goku" be a match for Beerus?

No, because Beerus' power always must be retconned so he can be stronger. It's his canon power established by Toriyama. Goku stands no chance. You know, on the topic of this, I do have my own fan theory that the Hakaishin are in fact powered by the totality of destructive energy in their respective...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima: Episode 8 - Official Discussion Thread

So the Tamagami are at least on Perfect Cell's level, if a pre Majin-ized Dabura was not able to defeat them. That fits with Goku using SSJ2 to defeat the 3rd Tamagami, since it was iffy whether his SSJ form was a match for Cell by the Boo arc. Now that Majin Boo's origins have been clarified...once...

Would a "Composite Goku" be a match for Beerus?

Say all base forms of Goku at their best from every arc & timeline, with all of their techniques & feats, were combined together into one ultimate, end-all being of Son Goku, that would be Goku from the following list: Pilaf arc 21st Tenkaichi arc Red Ribbon Army arc 22nd Tenkaichi arc Picco...

Re: Can Saiyans access a portion of their Super Saiyan strength without transforming?

I think that has always been the case, otherwise you would have seen base Saiyans get killed every time they decided to tangle with an opponent that required transformation against. In M8 for example, Base Goku, Base Gohan, and Base Trunks actually withstood an onslaught of attacks from LSSJ Broly f...

Re: Dragon Ball Daima: Episode 7 - Official Discussion Thread

Despite having a lighter tone than DBS, I'm actually enjoying DB Daima more than I did the past few arcs of DBS. I quite like the exploration of the demon realm and it's lore behind many different characters & places throughout the story, as opposed to just having another really strong bad guy a...

Re: do you think gt goku and vegeta are stronger then their super counterparts?

My own headcanon is that SSJG is SSJ multipled by SSJ, or 50 times 50. I just came up with that because Goku was still able to challenge Beerus with SSJ after SSJG's time ran out, but he maintained SSJG's power within SSJ, effectively making it a power up contained within a power up in that fight. G...

Re: do you think gt goku and vegeta are stronger then their super counterparts?

If you go by Super Dragonball Heroes, Xeno Goku & Vegeta are what happens when GT Goku & Vegeta become even stronger, but not counting their improved versions of SSJ4 that they only have access to when they absorb power, they were only about on par with their mainline counterparts from the T...

If these 5 characters on a team had to potara fuse with one of these 5 characters on another team...?

Who would each character most likely choose to potara fuse with?
Note: Characters on Team A can only fuse with characters on Team B.

Team A: Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Gohan, and Broly.

Team B: Krillin, Yamcha, Tenshinhan, Chaozu, and Jaco.

Re: Making Sense of Saiyan Transformations and Power Ups

It's a little funny to me how a simple artistic decision to make Goku's hair easier to ink would end up creating a convoluted series of powers ups involving hair getting longer & spikier, growing all over the body, or changing color several times. I kinda wonder what would happen if the Saiyans ...

Re: What's the general speed of ki blasts you think?

It's rather difficult to say. At different points in the story, some fighters(Freeza in particular) have demonstrated that Ki attacks are capable of moving too fast for even other Ki users to see. And then in other parts, it was established that even ordinary humans are capable of at least observing...

Re: Power of Imperfect Cell

- Recoome probably stood out in terms of endurance. - Recoome, being 40% stronger, still had injuries after the attack. - Cell knew he was heading towards Piccolo, 17, and 18. And he knew he would be stronger than the three of them combined. I think it’s possible that he was at least twice as stron...

Re: Power of Imperfect Cell

Regarding the Recoome fight, if Vegeta was at 30,000 and Recoome was 42,000(we'll just say he is equal to Nail), then the fight confirms that a 40% difference is enough on that occasion to hardly take any damage from an opponent, and completely dominate them. Case in point: Chapter: 275 (DBZ 81), P1...

Re: Power of Imperfect Cell

If you think back to the Saiyan arc, Piccolo technically tanked a full power blast from Nappa, who was stronger than him by just over 14% in terms of PL. While it did ultimately lead to him slowly dying afterwards, the fact that Piccolo's body could withstand a blast from someone stronger and not ge...

Re: Do you think Future Trunks had to fight any other threats since we last saw him?

I honestly hope not. Future Trunks deserves a happy ending or even the somewhat-happy ending that he received. Having to encounter another great threat again and needing to save another timeline would just be sadistic, and it would only establish that the purpose of Future Trunks' existence is to su...

Re: Fanmanga - DB Multiverse

I mean, it's cool, I won't lie. But Salagir certainly lied when he said Janemba wasn't part of DBM's canon.
Well, if it can improve upon the story at least, I won't hound him for it. If it can.

How much longer can the Earth or any planet hold up against the power of the characters?

Even considering that they hold back not to destroy the Earth, the powers of various strong characters keep on increasing to the point of shaking the whole planet and generating shockwaves that can be seen from space. So I ask, how much longer can the Earth and any other planet serve as a battlefiel...

Looks like it. This chapter ended up being a what-if that never actually happened, which is at least more entertaining than the story concentrating on Bra.

Roshi also managed to imitate the principle of UI jus...
