Only if Beerus supress himself as he did against SSGod. In a battle for survival, there is no reason to assume Top was going easy on them. Obviously, they weren’t matched with Top, but they weren’t far behind either.

If we agree that one-shotting is killing or defeating in one shot, then he didn't, he just knocked them down and they were never unconcious, just re-watched it, don't know where you got that. Anyway he is not stronger than before. A stronger character would one-shot already defeated weakened characters but even the time machine survived.SupremeKai25 wrote: ↑Thu Jun 20, 2019 5:40 am He did oneshot them, they were knocked unconcious instantly.

Ok, you realise that you are purposelly discarding statements based on latter feats from characters who claim the opposite of what you are saying, right? whether we like it or not, they explained that Goku wasn't really going all out even though he uses SSB for almost everything even against Krillin.
We could say the manga did the same thing but better, explaining Kale reached her peak and then started losing steam. She is/was blue tier in the manga. In the anime they nerfed it and we have to live with it, they literally gave her a stronger form and placed her where Toei believed she belonged.
SSBlue Goku did better against the same attack from Jiren than Kale did, and after taking the most damage he ever took in his entire life and from a stronger version of Jiren, Kale was one-shotted by an almost eye-closed Jiren.

I am not saying he was stronger than before, that's why I asked that question, because I wasn't sure. And yes they were knocked unconcious, check this video:Koitsukai wrote: ↑Thu Jun 20, 2019 1:28 pmIf we agree that one-shotting is killing or defeating in one shot, then he didn't, he just knocked them down and they were never unconcious, just re-watched it, don't know where you got that.

As you can see at the beginning they were lying down and barely got up. And he did defeat them in one shot, they were overwhelmed completely by his ki blasts and after that they never even tried to fight him again.
Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
I honestly don’t know what you are talking about. There is nothing saying Goku was holding back against Kale and the scene is very easy to understand. She walked through his kamehameha without getting any damage. Goku only did better against Jiren’s attack later because he used kaioken to prevent being ringed out.Koitsukai wrote: ↑Thu Jun 20, 2019 1:28 pm Ok, you realise that you are purposelly discarding statements based on latter feats from characters who claim the opposite of what you are saying, right? whether we like it or not, they explained that Goku wasn't really going all out even though he uses SSB for almost everything even against Krillin.

Wait, so if i'm not mistaken, Kid Boo had God ki (or at least God power) this entire time?

Did Pure Evil Boo also have God Power?
That was the Boo he split with.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
He took a way stronger version of that attack (Jiren powered up before facing him and even scared Beerus and everyone else there) at pointblack and then went KKx20, he used small bursts before, yes, but considering Jiren powered up to face the only rival Belmod apparently "warned" him about, Goku as a regular SSB was already fighting a much stronger monster than Kale did, before KK. He was losing but it wasn't a piece of cake like with Kale, he knocked the SS out of her with just one shot almost with his arms crossed and heavily supressed(if we call 109 supressed Jiren then 100 Jiren should be Asleep Jiren), Kale lasted 0.3 seconds against an even more supressed Jiren.Hugo Boss wrote: ↑Thu Jun 20, 2019 2:00 pm I honestly don’t know what you are talking about.

Goku only did better against Jiren’s attack later because he used kaioken to prevent being ringed out.
Goku said that line about using more power and stuff but I guess I'm repeating it without much thought and might as well discard it for good, but anyway, we have seen Goku use SSB against weaker rivals, Gohan being one, 17 another and we now can safely say they are not as strong as SSBlue, and the show itself later on stated that a stronger Kale wasn't in that realm either. Even Krillin managed to hold SSBlue's KameHH for a while, and pushed it a little! Krillin!
That scene that messes everything up was nothing more than a fanservice recalling original Broly movie, so it's not even a normal thing in the story, Kale was not doing that to every blue tier like she did in the manga, there it makes sense, but in the anime it's clearly out of context and is contradicted by latter events and statements. Really, if we take it out, then all makes perfect sense.
Hell, Kefla needed SS to face a tired SSBlue Goku, that would mean Berserk Kale is equally strong as SS Kefla. But well, the characters stated enough, I'm not going to be the one correcting them.
In-universe, if Kale is SSBlue tier, then why didn't she beat tired SSGod Goku while being assisted by SS Caulifla? and why did Kefla needed SS if Kale alone can do it?
Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Goku took the attack but only managed to escape from it with kaioken. Kale couldn’t put a fight, because she wasn’t prepared for Jiren. Goku was taking care, which explains why he faired better. It doesn’t have to do only with power.
In another hand, despite using SSBlue in other instances in this arc, Kale was the first person that overpowered him. This scene plays out similarly in the manga, so I don’t understand why consider this instance off the curve and consider that one in which she is overpowered by SSGod as the norm.
So, to answer your question. That Goku vs. Caulifla & Kale fight didn’t make sense. Berserker is supposed to be as powerful as Kafla. The only way to make sense of it is assuming Kale’s new form is only stronger than the one she had before she went Berserker.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
or, you know.
Goku favoring skipping SS3 and SSG and go Blue for anything stronger than SS2 unless he's showcasing or saving stamina.
Goku underestimating Berserker Kale(or at least her continuous growth in power) and Holding Back(C) too much would explain everything much more cleanly

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
If Goku really wanted to hold back that much, he would have used a form weaker than SSBlue. It doesn’t make sense that SSGod would be stronger than SSBlue, even if he is not at full power, he wasn’t tired. And more importantly, he had no reason to hold back after seeing his kamehameha being overpowered. Why thinking this explanation suddenly solve this problem?ankokudaishogun wrote: ↑Thu Jun 20, 2019 9:14 pm Goku underestimating Berserker Kale(or at least her continuous growth in power) and Holding Back(C) too much would explain everything much more cleanly
Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
I don’t see the big issue here kale isn’t blue level goku didn’t care about how jiren one shotted her despite her rampage nor cared at all about how she had him helpless
Jiren intervening doesn’t mean much considering he intervene with maji kayo whobhd dyspo helpless yet we know hello isn’t blue tier.
A weakened ssjg goku stomped her in a much stronger form.
Like the best you can argue her being there but got recton so that’s what will take

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
The difference is that the manga had Kale take on several blue tier characters, in the anime only Goku faced her. In the manga it was explained she was losing steam, so she WAS blue tier at first and then started to drop. And as Kefla she was hurt and tired so Kefla was not as strong as possible.
In the anime Kale has only one feat against a blue level character, then herself in a stronger form is shown being below SSGod, and her fusion as SS fighting equally with a tired SSBlue Goku, all supported by the peanut gallery with clear statements like "this Kale is stronger than before", or "Kale and Caulifla's fusion can take SS Blue Goku because he is tired".
If we pretend Berserk Kale's feat were a distraction of an unexpecting person(cheap fanservice with Kale awkwardly yelling Son Goku) then everything pans out, we don't even have to pretend it never happened.
Now, to believe Kale is blue level is the norm, we have to overlook several statements from big and small commentators, Kefla's feats, and basically the path the story followed. Kale being SSBlue level is never supported at all as the show progresses. So I guess it's better to overlook just one scene instead of many scenes.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
I wonder how strong Moro actually is. I know the magic is the focal point of his power, but Goku and Vegeta are still convinced the power of Super Saiyan Blue can handle him. Moro was giving Super Saiyan God Vegeta trouble when he was still at his diminished level, so logically he should far beyond that with his power restored.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
I don’t see it that way. The only statement I think it should be overlooked or rather interpreted differently is Tenshinhan’s. “Kafla” (that’s her name) was said to be nearly as powerful as the genkidama Goku bathed in.Koitsukai wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 1:06 am Now, to believe Kale is blue level is the norm, we have to overlook several statements from big and small commentators, Kefla's feats, and basically the path the story followed.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Nothing stated such, but we know in universe the fusion doesn't start at full power if the individuals are weakened. The fusion doesn't seem to show fatigue or damage ala Vegetto, but we know Vegetto had to take a senzu upon fusing to reach FP after Vegeta and Goku were severely weakened after fighting Zamasu.Block88 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 8:04 amI’m srry but this nothing but head canon nothing in the manga stated kefla was weakened due to her fusee being hurt at all let alone impliedKoitsukai wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 1:06 am The difference is that the manga had Kale take on several blue tier characters, in the anime only Goku faced her.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Apparently, there is a wide gap between SSGod and SSBlue. Boo managed to handle Moro just fine, so he might have surpassed SSGod as well. Moro surpassed Boo/Grand Kaioshin (I don’t know how to call him exactly) but he’s still weaker than SSBlue. His third wish probably grants him the ability to surpass SSBlue.Super Saiyan Turlast x4 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 7:52 am I wonder how strong Moro actually is.

Re: Dragon Ball Super Strength Discussion Thread
Right, but is not headcanon, is just simple deduction: Kale was getting beaten up badly by fodder and they fused to avoid her getting ringed out. The point being Kefla (if Kale didn't waste her silver bullet before fusing and wasn't against the ropes) probably would've been stronger than she was.Block88 wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 8:04 amI’m srry but this nothing but head canon nothing in the manga stated kefla was weakened due to her fusee being hurt at all let alone impliedKoitsukai wrote: ↑Fri Jun 21, 2019 1:06 am The difference is that the manga had Kale take on several blue tier characters, in the anime only Goku faced her.
