In terms of pure 100% strength, Blue Vegeta was stronger than Rosé by a lot, but the entire point of the arc is that they can't use pure 100% strength until the very end.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Now to be fair, the massive boost Vegeta got in the RoSAT was a plot point. I don't know about the manga, but it was stated in the anime that he got a larger boost because of his anger towards Black for killing Bulma/hurting Trunks. You can argue if it was a good explanation, but there was an explanation. Of course, the increase in the anime was substantial but certainly not 100x+ like in the mangaDoctor. wrote:The RoSaT barely made Goku and Vegeta any stronger in 3 years and you're saying Vegeta got dozens of times stronger in 6 months?Bergamo wrote:I don't see the problem.

Vegeta's strength is either inconsistently portrayed in both fights, or he gets ridiculously stronger in a short amount of time in the RoSaT.

Yes. Because having the forms of the body you stole makes no sense.Bergamo wrote:Kale hit Frieza and Goku because she wasn't as bulky then. She got a lot bigger in between then and when she fought the pride troopers.Doctor. wrote:They're not the same form, they don't have the same disadvantages; a pointless callback is just a pointless callback. If Kale was slow, she wouldn't be hitting characters like Toppo, Vegeta and Freeza.Bergamo wrote:The tweet says that the line is a direct reference to Trunks from the cell saga. Trunks was too slow, thus why you can infer that Kale is too slow. Also, the tweet implies that this is a problem with her form, not that she's just bad at martial arts.

I think many people misunderstand things like SSJ Black vs SSB Vegeta. I don't think the manga is flawless, but so many people hate on it for no good reason.Black having super saiyan does not mean he has the rest of the forms. That makes no sense.ZombieVito wrote:Sigh.Bergamo wrote: Oh look, a other person who dislikes the manga because they don't fundamentally understand it.
Let me guess...
-"Super Saiyan Black is fighting SSB Vegeta! Screw context, that's duuuuummmb.:
-"Vegeta using SSG is duuummmb."
-"I wanted to wait another 3 months for the fodder characters to get eliminated. Actually, if that happened I'd call the manga boring."
I'm thinking about making a post to explain the powerscaling in the manga, so that people like you will stop your blind hatred.
Since they gave Black Super Saiyan then that means he has 2, 3 and God. This means that since his base is over 400 times stronger than Goku's then his Rose form is 400 times stronger than Blue.
Power scale broken. The anime did the right thing to not only skip Super Saiyan but to say Rose is his version of Super Saiyan not Blue.
You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. I'm even surprised you like that mess of a manga since Bergamo was awful on it.
Black says, "The soul of a God and the body of a saiyan are INCREASINGLY becoming one and the same." This means that the transformation from Super Saiyan to Super Saiyan Rose is gradual. When he fought Vegeta he was 90% transformed, and that's why he had God tier strength in a mortal form.
>_>
Black is a natural god so he fits perfectly with the definition of Blue.
A Saiyan with the power of god as a Super Saiyan. There's no need for the other forms in the anime.
Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
You're still misunderstanding. SSJ Black didn't jump from SSJ to Rosé, in fact, his SSJ and Rosé forms are close in power. His power was gradually increasing. First he's weaker than SSJ2 Vegeta, then he's equal to a SSJB Vegeta, all in his Super Saiyan state. Finally his power stops increasing, and his hair turns pink.

That doesn't really fit with what you said for the anime though. If Rose is just his SS1 but with different hair, then by definition he should have a pink haired SS2, SS3, God and Blue. It's a problem with Black across both his appearances, the manga just makes it even more obvious by giving him a regular SS1 first.ZombieVito wrote:Yes.

This is your own headcanon, Rosé is just Black's equivalent to Blue, it's not "one long transformation"; he was just in the process of unlocking the form. How do you know his Super Saiyan and Rosé forms are close in power? Are you suggesting Rosé has a set powerlevel and can't get any stronger? Super Saiyan forms are multipliers. If Super Saiyan Black got stronger, then all that means is that his other forms got stronger too.Bergamo wrote:You're still misunderstanding.

I'd also like to add that Black having SS and SSR was Toriyama's idea (stated in his character design), Toei supposedly decided to skip the first form and have base Black no sell Vegeta's attacks.

I mean Vegeta's power increase being so huge after training in the RoSaT, when the RoSaT was rendered obsolete not only in the Cell arc but in Super once already.PFM18 wrote:I don't think so.

Yes, they imply that he unlocked the transformation just like any other Saiyan unlocks any other transformation with any other prerequisite. He got stronger because Saiyans get stronger in battle, that's how Saiyan bodies work. He reached a point where he was strong enough to use Rosé.Bergamo wrote:Every single line implies his power increased gradually towards Rosé
What you're saying is that Super Saiyan turned into Rosé at some point. That clearly isn't true because that's not how Super Saiyan forms work.

That...actually kind of makes sense. Base Black was said to be a bit stronger than SS3 Goku. So if Rose was the equivalent to Blue in terms of power boost, wouldn't he be like 400x stronger than Goku and Vegeta in their Blue forms?

The way I see it is that since Black is a natural god then his base form is a Saiyan beyond God, exactly as powerful as a SSG and once he turns Super Saiyan then he turns Rose. That's why him having regular Super Saiyan is not right.
The manga just fucked up yet again.

You're just proving my point. Rosé is just Blue but for Black, there's no reason to think the difference between Super Saiyan and Rosé is any less than the difference between Super Saiyan and Blue.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Blue being SS + God Ki IS the problem, it doesn't make any sense for either Black or Goku since that should mean they'd have God Ki version of 2 and 3. The sole good thing the retcon thing has done is stop treating Blue like a hybrid form and making it an upgraded SSGod instead. But that's like slapping a moron across the face for not shitting himself instead of kicking them down a flight of stairs as far as congratulations go.ZombieVito wrote:But Blue is SS + god ki.
