Re: Tiencha's Strength?

Yeah I noticed that to and I agree with you guys about how it doesn't make sense but it is there and supposed to be official. But even if we do ignore Gogeta a possibility of a Tiencha potora fusion being over 3 times as strong as LSS Broly is crazy. They need to put a potora version of him in a gam...

Re: Tiencha's Strength?

Well, if you go by the "fusion is literally Fused Guy #1's power level times Fused Guy #2's power level" formula, then a Yamcha/Tenshinhan fusion would be several times more powerful than Freeza at full strength even if you assumed than Tenshinhan was still miraculously so weak that the s...

Re: World's Strongest Review-Ocean Group Dub

Personally I don't believe in a perfect way to watch the show (or at least not a perfect for everybody). Everybody is different and has different taste, some might only like the original version, some might only like the dubs that are original to them, and some might like different parts in differen...

Re: Why were Vegeta & Nappa hanging around with Raditz?

To me, it seemed obvious. The rest of the Saiyans were all dead, so there was no real class system anymore and they had to band together to conquer planets with each other. Not to mention the reason that Raditz came to Earth to recruit Goku in the first place: that planet that even three Saiyans ha...

Re: The pilot episodes of HG's dub of DB might not exist

I can understand not wanting to upload copyrighted material (though isn't there a time limit or something?

Re: The pilot episodes of HG's dub of DB might not exist

Which came out in 1995. I forgot that last bit about DB being released in 1995 but my point still stands dario03 that you probably saw Funimations first dub of DB and not HG's dub. Like I said, I am positive that it was 1993 so it couldn't have been the Funi dub. In 1995 I did see the Funi dub and ...

Dragonball.wikia.com says that they may of done 5 episodes. And is there any other version that may of been broadcast in the USA or Canada in 1993? Because I am positive that the first time I ever saw dragonball was on TV saturday morning back in 1993 and it was only a regular 30 minute type of show...

Re: No, SSJ Vegetto is not that strong.

The current discussion has moved past the "its to strong" and isn't so much about denying Vegetto's strength as it is about the statement of Goku x Vegeta = Vegetto. Its more of a curiosity about if the statement can work literally or not.

I've seen people say it but all you have to do is point out that Goku was a Super Saiyan before Sonic 2 came out and they usually stop there.

Re: No, SSJ Vegetto is not that strong.

Is Vegetto stronger than SS4 Goku? I remember in the dub that the old kai said that SS4 Goku was the strongest fighter he had ever seen. I never thought much of it but if Vegetto is this strong then SS4 would annoy me even more. Was that just a dub line? please tell me it was... Yes, he is insanely ...

On a related note, I've been wondering about the whole old kai power unlocking for a while. I've heard people say that after that ritual that Gohan is at his max and could never go beyond that. I've also heard people say that he could if he trained more. Is it actually stated any where if he could o...

Re: Goten & Trunks - Full-Power Super Saiyans?

I have a bit of a theory on why present Goten and Trunks are so powerful and why Trunks could go SS earlier then Future Trunks. I don't think theres anything in the manga or anime to support it but I think its simply because they are around more powerful fighters. In real life children pick up on wh...

Re: Dragon Ball Film Reboot

I would be surprised if anybody could ever make a good full length live action feature film based of Dragonball. At no point during any of the animes did I ever think "hey, this would be so much better with live people.". I just don't see the benefit in live action for DB's style. Even if ...
