Instant Transmission or just the ability to fly. Yes, I'm lame like that.

Wow.. no one's mentioned Kamehameha yet @_@

Weird.

Yea, that's my answer. Kamehameha no doubt. Sure Buukuujutsu would be REALLY fun, but having Kamehameha would be amazing. I could propel myself with my Kamehameha into the air anyways :P

Well, you could propel yourself, but you couldn't really control where you were going as well. Plus, it's kinda nice to see what exactly it is you're hurtling towards (and unless you're really good at multi-tasking or are as extremely talented as Goku with his amazing Kamehameha-ing feet, you probably couldn't do that without somewhat hampering your ability to control your direction).

With Bukujutsu, it's a lot simpler. Just aim and go! :lol: Plus, you could do cool stuff like barrel rolls and midair flips that you couldn't exactly manage with a big beam coming out of your hands. :P

Also, as to your statement that nobody else has mentioned wanting to use the Kamehameha yet:
Earlier on the thread, veshira wrote:Probably bukujutsu and Kamehameha. I like a lot of techniques, but those are my top favorites. (Although Super Saiyajin is pretty dang nifty.)
Sorry, looks like someone beat you to mentioning it already. 8D;;

Awww.. :(

Well, I guess that's a good point. It would be really hard to control where I'm going, and unless I had an unlimited energy supply, I'd run out of energy by just trying to control the dang thing >_>;

Okay, I conform to the masses. Bukujutsu. >_>

Yeah when you're usually into some sort of fandom dealing with fiction like this, a "what kind of power" discussion is bound to come out. My answers are usually teleporting, flying, and psychic abilities. Why? Because I using those could be so damn useful in the real world. I'd hate to have the ability to do a ki based move like the masenko because I'd have no one to test it out on. :( :P While we're on this subject, I'd fly like Mystic Gohan. :)

If I could only choose one Dragonball technique to use in real life, it would have to be Shunkan Ido... HANDS DOWN! You'd save lots of money on gas and airfare, and for me I could visit my family in Spain instantaneously! :D

Instant Transmission works by sensing Ki, though, which we can't do. :P

Probably to cause some mischeif, mainly. But of course, I wouldn't be able to resist the allure of playing superhero.

You guys pick Shunkanidou and the best thing you can come up with is to get to class on-time?

How about collecting some gold bars from different locations on the planet to live on easy street? Or disappearing/re-appearing in the girls shower room? or grabbing a Wii/PS3/Xbox360 while BestBuy is closed? Along with the HDTV and other items in there.

If you can only pick one, I'd go with Shunkanidou, next would be Final Flash/KameHameHa/Big Bang Attack (read as massive energy blast that can part the heavens...)

Ah, I would probably pick... Damn this is hard. Flying I suppose, I would probably use it to fly through enemies. Although any sort of ki blast would be fucking awesome.

I think turning Super Saiyan would be like almost everything expect flying and doing Instant Movement. Since your other powers would be upgraded, I say it like having power, speed and ki all at once. And for the candy power, who wouldn't want to turn the bullies at school into candy? It's fun! :lol:

Crime? Pff, I'd use powers because I'm lazy. As for turning super saiyan, that's a waste. I'd just work out... a lot more. :P Another power I'd definitely want is the psychic powers the heroes tend to have from time to time (especially Chaozu). Crap like that would be very useful IRL.

Can't people in DragonBall make stuff? If so, I'd make the things you mentioned and just sell them, haha.
