Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
You can't argue the whole "he lied here, so he could have lied there too" because with Fat Buu, it was later revealed that he was lying about it. With Evil Buu, what is said is never countered, contradicted, or otherwise established as a lie. As for the Kaioushin absorptions, again, only ...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
What you just stated does not disprove the fact that Goku was said to be able to fight kid buu on a level playing field. Which he did. That means stronger than Gohan as well, it's not like Gohan was forgotten by Vegeta since he saw everything from afterlife. his doesn't disprove Goku's statements a...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
It's only an anime thing that the guides documented and was continued upon in DBS. Historically, people drew the opposite conclusion, and that was naturally by just reading. However, I must say that TOEI studios did their best to make Goku vs Pure Boo the strongest match until then, by crafting som...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
None of that changes the fact that Vegeta's statement was proven by action that Goku fought Kid Buu toe-to-toe. Yea taking things out of context is such a fair thing, Vegeta was thinking Goku is holding back for him and he can finish him off if fighting earnestly. Again, you can continue to write m...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
The whole narrative doesn't even make sense with Gohan being above Boo but people taking his name but not calling him then thinking if genki Dama fails its the end and elder Kaioshin who made Gohan stronger not calling him, it's nonsense this way. Yeah, the best argument you could make in defense o...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
Do you think that Goku would have judged Buu solely on his size if his ki was even higher than someone that he had admitted, only a few minutes beforehand, was someone far too strong for him and Vegeta to fight, and that they'd die if they attempted to do so? That'd be extremely out of character fo...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
That doesn't mean anything, Goku never remarked about ki so what you assume is headcanon. Also according to your logic, Pure Boo > Fat Boo. Since at this point Goku never confessed that he could have beaten Fat Boo and even Vegeta thinks he can take him on. So he has to be around ssj2. It's funny h...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
Except Burter was proven to be outclassed by Goku and Goku equally fighting Kid Buu backs up his statement. Proof and action go hand in hand. give me the quote where Goku's saying he's fighting Toe to Toe. Goku told Vegeta he's not holding back and after gathering ki for a minute he came to the con...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
Goku outright said they can manage something against Kid Buu unlike evil buu. BTW, Goku only ASKED if Kid Buu's ki is increasing. Then when Kid Buu shows up, Kakarot gets happy and says they can manage something against Kid Buu. Unlike when he said that he and Vegeta will outright get killed by Evi...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
Goku and Vegeta’s actions are somewhat forgiveable if they thought SS2 would be able to manage something against Pure Boo. It should be remembered that Goku’s SS3 was still a work in progress, he was very reluctant about using it, possibly influencing in the assessment about his own strength. Final...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
People do not understand the strength of each Buu cause they are not reading the statements IN context. For example... I see the OP missed the fact that Goku wanted to fight Kid Buu one-on-one cause of the fact that he ain't merged anymore. Do you know what that means? That not only includes Gotenk...

Re: Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
There is no way Kid Buu could be the strongest. That just makes zero sense. 1. SSJ3 Goku and Kid Buu fought on an even level. Goku even stated he could wipe him out with his full power. He NEVER implies this with any version of Super Buu. 2. The only time Buu explicitly gets weaker from absorption ...

Re: Pure Boo being above Evil Boo (atleast without absorptions) makes way more sense narrative-wise
At the end of the day, us fans have determined that Super Boo>Pure Boo because of Goku's fear of Super Boo when leaving his body, but I don't think that the story ever actually explicitly compares them. It's really never made apparent how most of these characters in that arc compare, even if fans h...

Re: Pure Boo being above Evil Boo (atleast without absorptions) makes way more sense narrative-wise
Maybe Pure Boo being strongest would be better in some narrative ways, but that's simply not what we're actually shown and told. The rest of the entire arc beforehand doesn't allow for it to be possible. That entire middle Fusion-and-Gohan portion of the arc contains far too many direct statements ...

Re: Pure Boo being above Evil Boo (atleast without absorptions) makes way more sense narrative-wise
And no, Boo can't access Southern Kaioshin absorbed ki because he's detached from the body so that skyrocketing ki has to be of Pure Boo. Remember How Evil Boo reverts to weaker forms the instant someone is detached from inside? When Goku and Vegeta detached the kids and Piccolo he changes instantl...

Re: Is Dragon Ball Your Favorite Anime Ever?
Dragon Ball may not be some Best written work but it's my Favorite anime series. I am not too fond of Modern Dragon Ball but the original trilogy does hold up very well to me. Some of the later mangas or mangas at its time may have better writing but i still enjoy Dragon Ball over them. So yea, it's...

Pure Boo > Evil Boo makes more narrative sense?
Why do many people believe that Evil Boo was stronger than Pure Boo? When the narrative is trying to tell totally different thing. When Goku and Vegeta detached Good Boo from inside of Evil Boo, there's a rise in Ki. Goku and Vegeta sure think he's manageable but did they really based him from ki? E...

Re: Dragon Ball voted third best manga of the Heisei era (1989-2019)
One Piece, the king as usual. :clap: Shingeki's popularity is also pretty damn impressive. Surprised, no Togashi titles made it, but oh well. Togashi's Yuu Yuu Hakusho was good but i can't say the same for Hunter x Hunter atleast in manga form. The art is lazy in weekly releases, the over-expositio...
