Re: Toshio DBS writer states Tien is an Alien
Tien wasn't qualified as an Earthling and so therefore Krillin was the strongest Earthling, that's what he said which could very well imply that he thought Tenshinhan was possibly the stronger of the two.

He's stating the same thing that's recycled over and over: that Tenshinhan is descended from aliens, and in a "general view" (whatever that means to him in his original Japanese intent), Kuririn is the "most powerful Earthling".
None of this is new, there is nothing being "informed" to the "community" here, and it's is just another example of someone pestering this poor writer on Twitter with inane strength questions and it baffles me just how exceedingly polite he is in the face of it. He's a better person than I am.
This is very transparently just another excuse for you to post yet another "Tenshinhan vs. Kuririn" thread. We truly do get it. I promise you. And you know that it isn't worth its own thread, since you separately (more-appropriately) posted it in the strength thread.
Please re-evaluate what it is you're looking to accomplish in your time here.

Re: Toshio DBS writer states Tien is an Alien
Toriyama is pushing 70 and had been unreliable when it comes to his own work. Hes passing reigns over to Toyotaro. So wr have to get out information where we can.
Also the issue is so open for interpretation that I think we need to pay attention to how they are portrayed.

Re: Toshio DBS writer states Tien is an Alien
Supposedly Tenshinhan's Shiyoken ability is an hereditary trait seen only in his species, kind of like Piccolo's ability to elongate his appendages or the Saiyans with their zenkais and transformations. Unlike those aforementioned species, however, Tenshinhan's racial individualism wasn't witnessed in the series all too often. Is his three-sighted multidexterity even mentioned after the 22nd tournament? Such traits would prove invaluable in a fight and yet nothing ever comes of them despite having already been established back in the middle of the original series.
Krillin's underhanded craftiness would really be put to the test against Tenshinhan if their power levels were equally matched and if he actually made use of his species' attributes.

Re: Toshio DBS writer states Tien is an Alien
If 62 is pushing 70 you might as well say he's pushing 80 too. It really doesn't mean anything either way; you're trying to imply he's becoming feeble minded because he's old, as if that's a matter of course. You know how many people over 70 I could sit here listing that could put both our wits to shame?JulianStyles wrote:Toriyama is pushing 70 and had been unreliable when it comes to his own work.

Yea his four witches and multiform are traits of his race. Piccolo using multiform never happened in the manga.Lionel wrote:Supposedly Tenshinhan's Shiyoken ability is an hereditary trait seen only in his species, kind of like Piccolo's ability to elongate his appendages or the Saiyans with their zenkais and transformations.

[spoiler]Is he referring to Jiren?
If Tien and Jiren are related, that's an angle that could be explored in the future: rivals, family, etc.[/spoiler]

Re: Toshio DBS writer states Tien is an Alien
By that logic every single line that is in the show but not part of the bullet point list is not new information. Which is not the case.And unless it comes from Toriyama it's no new information.
