Re: Godzilla Evolved was inspired by Goku
There's also the Neftlix animated show ( Skull Island ) and the Apple TV+ series ( Monarch: Legacy of Monsters ), in addition to several comics. Also, related to the original post, there's a brief little bit in the film itself where Monarch is getting readings on Godzilla's new Evolved state. It has...

Re: Godzilla Evolved was inspired by Goku
That's cool. I haven't followed the Monsterverse (the bits and pieces that I have seen have bored me death, and I'm currently writing this post from Kaiou-sama's planet), but it's neat to see a slight Kaiou-ken reference in a major film. I'm curious how the new form works? Judging by the trailer it...

Godzilla Evolved was inspired by Goku
So in the 5th Monsterverse film, Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire , Godzilla has evolved into a powerful new form during the course of the movie, as you can see here: https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/__I4EdcYqc3qbsDkw5otOw--/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTE2MDA7aD05MDI7Y2Y9d2VicA--/https://media.zenfs.co...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Imagine that it's a similar case between Goku and Vegeta, where Piccolo is the Vegeta equivalent.
Gohan, like Goku, is overall superior whereas Piccolo and Vegeta lag behind the peaks those 2 can reach by a bit.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Something I think we ought to realize now is that we can't keep saying "Toriyama intended" now that he's gone.
We can't fall back on this line of logic anymore, and we shouldn't try to anyways.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Actually, speaking about Piccolo, I've seen a lot of folks in other parts of the internet bring up the notion that Piccolo couldn't possibly know how strong Gamma 1 and 2 were because he can't sense them, nor gauge how strong Goku and Vegeta are due to not being able to sense God Ki. I've always fou...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Also, remember that writers like Toyotaro and Toriyama tend to follow the simple common adage: "Keep It Simple, Stupid".
They're showing off their strongest forms, they bring up if it's the best, therefore it's probably the best.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
I think the best part is that Gohan Beast being up to snuff with Ultra Instinct also means that his Ultimate form has to be in the ballpark of one of Goku's lower forms, lending credence to the Gammas being as strong as Goku and Vegeta in SSB; this also naturally applies to Piccolo himself, with his...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
It's interesting to think that the anime is sorta ahead of the manga in the sense that it showed us what the peak of the complete Ultra Instinct could be, shown when Goku gets that rage boost in the form and goes absolutely crazy on Jiren. In essence, the perfect Saiyan expression of Ultra Instinct ...

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
Quite liked this episode!
Krillin and Lazuli truly are the perfect couple in the series, both abridged AND canon.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
All this hubbub also retroactively makes Jiren impressive again since his God of Destruction-level strength remains a tentpole achievement.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
I think it's still a similar case to the movie overall. Super Saiyan Vegeta was still able to trade blows and damage base Broly, but he was decidedly not guaranteed to outlast that fight. So I think of him turning Super Saiyan God as him deciding to end that fight decisively rather than bother with ...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Way I'm seeing this argument, the whole thing is that the amount of power that their bodies can express can't go much higher in terms of sheer amount of Ki (denoted by "training their muscles"), and now the way that Ki is expressed is the way to go even further beyond.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
I was about to say this. Even in the manga Jiren fought SSBE Vegeta who he himself said was a considerable change from SSB. There's just no way Jiren is close to SSB. Do you people always over-scrutinize "feats" while completely ignoring the narrative? Chapters 39 and 40 have entire spiel...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
The way I see it, the level of power that Toriyama originally envisioned for the likes of Jiren and Broly was a bit more reasonable, equivalent to a Super Saiyan's worth of power over SSB a.k.a. equal to Super Saiyan Broly. it's a major step-up from SSB that requires alternate new power-ups to reach...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
I think I agree with Mr Baggins , though it's very confusing how Broly might be stronger than Beerus but Freeza is definitely below Beerus. Handwaving stuff like Goku and Vegeta being the strongest in the Granolah Saga is also tough, I guess Broly doesn't count because he can't transform at will, a...

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Beast had a lot more trouble handling Max than in the movie. Gohan struggled during the beam clash and needed outside help and he looks exhausted after the fight is over. Considering Max and Piccolo are somewhat relative as well, I'd say it's safe to say Black Freeza is still top dog. I can't imagi...

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
I wonder if the villains will all repent by the time Pure Buu comes around as would be canon, or if they'll still be walking around ala Toei's original idea of Hell.
