Re: Inconsistencies within the manga
Another Z to Super inconsistency: The base Saiyans seem to be estimated less powerful than Freeza without Super Saiyans. Yet Vegeta agreed to participate in a tournament with Piccolo and 18. Some people want to act like it os just Vegeta showing off but that's nonsensical. There is no way he agrees...

Re: Captain Ginyu´s First form
Wasn't it said in some of the supplementary material that Salza/Sauza/however-you-want-to-spell-his-name from the Cooler movie is one of the few people who's seen Ginyu's original body, and that they'd competed against each other for positions of power in the past?

Re: Who is the strongest (living) character at the end of the original series?
2. Where is everyone getting this Buu arc Ssj2 Goku and Vegeta are barely stronger than Ssj2 Cell Games Gohan? Basically, it's because raging SSj2 Gohan at the Cell Games is constantly used as a "measuring stick" throughout the early Buu Saga -- which wouldn't make sense if that level of ...

Re: Can cell turn ssj?
I've always seen Cell's gold-aura state as being his equivalent to Super Saiyan, yeah. I mean, think about it... he has all the best parts of the species he's made up of. Even though Dr. Gero doesn't know about Super Saiyan, that doesn't rule it out -- it wasn't Gero himself who completed Cell, but ...

Re: Was Yamoshi killed by a demon?
Crazy, I know, given that we have no indication that Saiyans can split themselves into good and evil halves like Namekians, but it's at least an interesting idea in my opinion. It doesn't seem like what happened with Kami and Piccolo Daimao was specifically a Namekian ability, considering that when...

Re: How strong was Goku REALLY at the start of Dragonball?
Personally, I always saw beginning-of-Dragonball Goku as having something more like a power level of 25. Of course, power levels weren't a thing in the original Dragonball and all of the levels listed for characters back then were added after the fact, so you kind of have to expect them to be a litt...

Re: How strong would fourth transformation King Cold be?
I like to think that there was a reason why Cold told Freeza to only avoid Buu and Beerus while not mentioning Dabura and Shin (out of universe reasons aside). Perhaps a final form Cold (if he can transform) would be within that power range I figure he just wouldn't know about Dabura in the first p...

Re: What is the dumbest DB fan theory you have ever heard?

Re: I have 2 questions
If Goku had used a thirty-times Kaio-ken to power his Kamehameha against Freeza instead of just twenty, Freeza would be seriously injured. The highest level of power Freeza seems to be able to use without going through the longer, straining process of bulking up to "100% mode" is 70%... an...

2. Present Zamasu vs SSJ3 Goku (RoF) Didn't the present Zamasu fight SSj 2 Goku, coming across as being at least a little weaker than he was? I can't imagine Goku would've randomly gotten four times stronger between Resurrection F and the time he met Zamasu, so I'd say SSj3 Goku completely flattens...

Who's the strongest character 20x Kaioken Piccolo (Boo arc) could beat? Piccolo was not far off from Vegeta or Trunks at the Cell Games, and should be even stronger by the Buu saga considering that he pretty much never stops training (though he wouldn't be getting enormous gains now like he did bef...

In another hand, questioning Koyama’s knowledge about DBZ movies is like questioning Aya Matsui’s about DBGT or even Toriyama’s about the original manga . You realize you're talking about Akira "so who's Tao Pai Pai again? didn't #18 have purple hair?" Toriyama, right...? So... yeah, you ...

Re: How strong would fourth transformation King Cold be?
Well, the King Cold we see was described as being a bit stronger than the level of power they were sensing from Freeza, or at least in the same range. Of course, this was Freeza when he was probably heavily suppressed (maybe 3,000,000ish like when he first fought Goku on Namek?), not the level he po...

Hmm... not sure if it was a dub-only thing or what, but wasn't the Kikoho mentioned as draining the user's life or shortening their lifespan, rather than merely depleting one's stamina like SSj3 or Golden Freeza do? It doesn't just make you tired (drain your physical or ki energy reserves), it actua...

Re: Non-thread-worthy discussions
So, here's something that's been bugging me. Why does Vegeta share the same name as his father? More importantly, if his father was named Vegeta, shouldn't that make him Vegeta Jr.? Back when the king was still alive, they were probably differentiated as "King Vegeta" and "Prince Veg...

Re: Can og broly kill fat Buu?
He'd be able to pull it off if he randomly pulled Super Saiyan 3 out of his ass. Otherwise... no way. Even after his near-death boost following the first movie, Broly loses to any form of Buu. At best, he'd manage to blow Buu up with a huge blast like Vegeta did with his self-destructing move, so he...

Re: Would Goku Be Able To Still Use All Of His Techniques & Transformations If His Mind Was Sent Back To His Early DB Bo
Kaio-Ken for me still might work with the correct training because that's much more about training the body than it is about reaching a minimum Power Level. Yeah, I suppose for Kaio-ken it's not so much "you need this much strength to use this level" so much as "someone who reaches t...

1. SSG Goku from BoG is stronger than anything from GT. (Was stated/implied to be universe busting. Nothing in GT is that strong) . We just don't really get feats in GT. By scaling, SSJ4 Goku should be about on par if not stronger, because all we know about SSG Goku is that he is stronger than SSJ3...

Re: Fighting maneuvers in Dragonball make no sense
If the finger was only there for a nanosecond it wouldn't be able to stop all of the punch's momentum. Beerus's finger was only on Goku's face for a nanosecond and it sent him flying all the way around North Kaio's planet... The amount of force required to stop the momentum of a single punch can't ...

Re: Would Goku Be Able To Still Use All Of His Techniques & Transformations If His Mind Was Sent Back To His Early DB Bo
Well, obviously any Super Saiyan form would be off the table since he wouldn't have enough S-cells or a high enough power level to activate it -- even in situations where the rage was there to trigger it, he just wouldn't meet the other qualifications. As for actual techniques... Kaio-ken, almost de...
