There where no Majn buu level threats. Frieza and beerus where over within one day. Both of them will probably become allies.

Timeline inconsistency is a minor polt hole.
Goku had still fought quite the list of characters that were stronger than Majin Buu so him being excited about fighting somebody who is Buu level just doesn't make sense. At the end of the day EoZ considers 10 years of peace and we had several threats to the Earth. As far as each lasting a day, Buu didn't last much if any longer than that.

Even if you insist upon considering EoZ, it still fits if you look at it from the perspective of being excited to train/fight somebody with that much potential and not necessarily with somebody of that level of power.
They are super inconsistent about it.

In episode 89 gohan got his old Ultimate form.

In episode 90 he kicked SSJ2 Goku ass.

From having a Buuhan level tier base to losing to ultimate Gohan at SSJ2
There is nothing insconsistent about that. Gohan is massively stronger than his Z self. He briefly competes with SSB Gok before being one shot by SSBKK. Later during the Tournament he is at least able to compete with SSB level characters and is consistently shown to be close to but not as strong as SSB.

He re-attained his "Ultimate form" and then they have this entire dialogue about reaching another level and continuing to train with Piccolo. Then the next day he competes with SSB. It is clear that the implication is ToP Ultimate Gohan>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Buu Arc Ultimate Gohan.
I treat this as retconned along with the SSG being universal, SSG being 60% of beerus.
The 60% line was very obviously retconned from the movies. It was excluded from the BoG for this reason, but there is no evidence for either of the other two to be retconned.
I have no problem with a strong base. But in super they are inconsistent about it.
You have shown a grand total of 0 examples of them being objectively inconsistent about it.
He never became above SSJ vegito. On his BEST day he is equal to SSJ3 Gotenks and below Z Ultimate Gohan. He can train with the supreme kai all his life and he won't match super vegito from Z(unless he unlcoks SSJ4/SSG/SSGSS)
...yeah this is just your head canon with nothing objective backing it up whatsoever.
Is gohan Soloing buu saga here despite being stated to be below his Z ultimate form here ? Or is this classic goku holding back excuse despite the fight not going in his favour ? How is a Gohan who is stated to be below Ultimate gohan and even piccolo matching the super saiyan version of a guy with supposedly super vegito base ? Or maybe it's that base goku is only marginally stronger than his Z base and below EoZ Goku ?
A. He isn't necessarily even weaker than his Buu Arc self. The statement about re-attaining "the power he used against Buu" could easily refer to his "Ultimate" form and not that level of power itself. He had been training(not entirely often) with Piccolo since RoF.
B. Goku literally admits to holding back. They fight evenly in base, and Goku admits to holding back. Then, they continue to fight evenly as SSJs. The obvious logical deduction is that he continued to hold back against his son who he is casually sparring against.
C. Trying to invalidate the level of power he was portrayed at for the entirety of the series by a 1 minute gag scene is insane. The scene's purpose was for the sake of the gag that they had destroyed the farm land. It was literally a 1 minute gag scene and cannot be used to make over-archng conclusions about the power scaling across the series.
The manga scaling of base Goku is the correct one
There is no "correct" one. They are each their own continuity.
the anime will stop the rare occasions of mis-scaling goku(it's literary that one fight with gotenks in that filler arc.and the other moneka filler episode.)and follow that .
The anime is being consistent with what was shown in BoG where Goku attained the same level of power as SSG in his normal SSJ form. Since he received such a boost, his base SHOULD be able to dominate SSJ3 Gotenks and give Beerus a relatively fun fight. It would have been an inconsistency if he DIDN'T dominate SSJ3 Gotenks in his base.

Also, his base being as weak as you are portraying just isn't supported at all. Those aren't the only examples of Goku's base being portrayed as super strong. They CONSISTENTLY show that when Goku is trying in his base, he is incredibly strong. The examples you forgot to include are:

1. 1st Form Freeza dominates everybody, and since we know from the Namek Arc, 1st Form->Final Form constitutes a 113x boost in power, he became over a hundred times stronger. Then, Base Goku fights evenly with him. This shows that Base Goku is at a bare minimum, 113x stronger than everybody else. (SSJ Gohan, Piccolo etc, SSJ Gotenks.)
2. While in Base, Goku doesn't even appear to be exerting effort but he still competes with a Majin Buu that is vastly stronger after training.
Is piccolo also SSG/SSB tier ? He defeated a SSJ2 gohan in episode 89. The same gohan who had the upper hand while being SSJ1 to a SSJ1 Goku(who has a supposedly a Super vegito base).

What about episode 75 Gohan ? Is he SSB tier despite being stated to be below Z gohan ?

There is zero proof of gohan getting vastly stronger than his Z self. The guy got his old Z power in episode 89 and you want me to believe that he went to SSB realms of power within a few hours in episode 90 ?

What about trunks ? Do you logically believe the guy could Get to a super vegito Base too ??

Instead of high balling every character to the moon alongside goku based on two filler instances with no torayama outline. Why don't you logically scale him based on acctual Canon material.


SSG being universal is retconned confirmed by a DBS writer. All goku forms apart from UI/MUI are not universal. In order to be universal you need to be in jiren pre-limit break realm of power

https://imgur.com/a/j8GjNfI

The threats to earth were Frieza and Beerus. Both of them where delt with in a day and later became allies. The only major threat(Zamasu) affected the future earth


I am not talking about Goku being excited. I am talking about the fight between him and Uub. Uub putted up a fight despite being a child who doesn't know how to fight. That's why people scale base EoZ Goku to be around his old SSJ3 Z self. Gotenks is 10 times stronger than Kid buu, are you saying that Goku can body Gotenks but can't body a vastly weaker character. Or is it just Toei filler high balling Goku like we are used to.

Saiyan beyond god(absorbing the power of SSG to his base/SSJ1) is retconned. The only boosts his base got is from training with whis. Which means he has a Z level base(strong enough to close the gap between SSJ3 Goku and Gohan but weak to compete with buutenks and buuhan), which is what the manga and late anime episodes follow.

EoZ established a level of power for base Goku for BOTH the manga and anime continuities. DBS Goku can't surpass that

Regardless, he was about to fight him without powering up to SSJ2 or SSJ3, what implies he could at leat put up a fight as a SSJ. I don't see a reason to discredit this, especially when it's the only feat from Pre God Goku we have.

Yes, Freeza could've killed Goku. In all versions of FnF, Golden Freeza was stronger than SSJB and was only defeated by Vegeta because of his stamina issues.

Maybe, we don't know if he would have started off in ssj and then transformed, and it's not like buu could actually hit him as he doesn't exist. It wasn't really full on image training as Goku was punching and kicking in real life. Real image training is when it's completely in the mind. At most I would say Goku was a couple times stronger since the Buu saga. Goku only got a few times stronger at most over the time gap between the Cell saga and Buu saga, so him multiplying his power by 8x in even less time without special training doesn't make much sense. Especially since it seems Goku wasn't training nearly as much as he was farming and whatnot. Post Whis training, ya I could see his ssj form beating kid Buu, but pre Whis training, I doubt it.

1) Hit lasts less than Golden Freeza.
2) Well, this is so difficult because the anime is a total mess (and now the manga too). My guts say Dyspo, my head says 17.
3) 2 mins are more than enough to kill them istantly with her max power.
4) Toppo and Dyspo win. Once you discover Aniraza's weakness and you reach it (and Dyspo would) then it's over for him.
5) Jiren slaughters him.

I wouldn't take what Toshio (one of the many Toei writers who all seem to contradict each other and who's views hasn't been confirmed by other writers nor Toriyama)
says seriously. This is the same guy who thinks 17 and Gohan are even, even though the ToP arc overtime shows that is WAY wrong (17 is FAR stronger than Gohan and Freeza).

There was no retcon of SSG being universal, since nearly all official guides and such from Toei (like the one that said 3rd Omen Goku>Beerus) put SSG and beyond as universal level based on feats. Unless we get a Daizenshuu for Super that says otherwise, SSG is universal.

1) Base Kefla was slightly stronger than a tired Ssj God Goku. She has no chance of defeating Black.
2) Base Vegito is supposed to be stronger than Ssj Blue Goku and Vegeta, right? If so, he wins.
3) Buu wins.
4) Piccolo wins if it's manga Future Gohan. Loses if it's the Gohan from the special.
5) Only Zeno could take out Infinite Zamasu. Goku has no chance.

1. SsjR Black slaughters her. If she turned ssj or ssj2 and doesn’t screw around, she destroys him.

2. Base Vegito is probably around ssjblue Goku/Vegeta level at his base. Also has the skills of Goku and Vegeta within him. He knows Hit and can defeat him.

3. SPC is at best a low tier Ssj2 or high tier Ssj. With kkx20, he probably is best a high tier ssj2. To defeat Buu, he needs to be at least a high tier ssj3 or above. He gets beaten badly and absorbed.

4. F. Gohan was a bit stronger than his father was when he came back from space. He lost to two inferior androids, however ssj2 is a big jump of power. Would make him around SPC level at best. So he beats piccolo.

5. Zamasu is weaker than Goku, however omnipresent and almost indestructible. Only can be wiped by someone who is at least at or above angel level.

1. GoD Toppo is out of his league. Regular Toppo would be a better fight in which Hit would win.
2. 17 since he can probably trap him in a barrier
3. Kefla should win if she is serious. If she plays around she runs out of time and loses.
4. Aniraza, but manga version would lose
5. Idk I guess Jiren for now since Beerus hasn't done much in a while and Jiren is confirmed stronger than Belmod in the manga and stated to be above GoD level in the anime.

Black wins, base Kefla was below Blue level.
Don't know, I guess Vegito if he gets the same boost as Kefla, but it would probably be a good fight.
Could go either way, I think Cell might have the power edge, but Buu is still harder to kill and has candy beam and absorption.
ssj2 future Gohan
Goku has more power, but he might not be able to finish Zamasu off.

it is not that I dont like the idea of saiyan beyond god. its that base caulifla/Cabba/Gohan/Future trunks should be nowhere near it.

F. Trunks SSJ2 was pushing SSJ2 Goku back. trunks never did the ritual so his base shouldn't have been equal to a Saiyan beyond God Goku even if he trained for his life

for example we see in episode 75 that SSJ1 Gohan(who was stated to be weaker than his Z self) had a slight advantage over a SSJ1 Goku.

the same Gohan lost to piccolo at SSJ2 in episode 89.

once gohan regained his Z mystic form he beated Goku SSJ2. he couldnt have surpassed his Z self because the guy regained his mystic form before a few hours of his fight.

all these instances come later in the show than either the monaka fight or the SSJ3 Gotenks fight. suggesting a retcon to me

unlike Goku and Vegeta black has God Ki in his base. that's why Blacks SSJ1 = SSGSS.


manga scaling makes sense continuty wise. the anime is inconsistent in the scaling department, sclaling him early to be above SSG in base and later to be around his Z base like the manga.

I would take the word of the writer until its contradicted by another writer or a statement later in the show.


if Goku SSG is universal. than jiren should be zeno level multiversal and their would be no point in the whole god of destruction thing sence half the cast are universal too if we believe Saiyan beyound god. which is why the retcon makes sense.

battle of god and its feats were writing under the impression of Goku being 60% of beerus. later they nerfed SSG to be below 1%.


for me if you are below beerus in power you are below universal. if you are around 75% of beerus you are -universal(can destroy most of the planets on the universe, but not the universe itself)

even with a supposedly anime Saiyan beyond God base. Goku is not soloing GT.

God ki has nothing to do with strength. Just because you have god ki doesn't mean you are automatically stronger than someone who doesn't. Hit, Golden Freeza, Aniraza and even Jiren don't have god ki, yet all of the them are SSB level or higher. Whereas all Kais are born with god ki yet most are weaker than a Cell Jr.

And just because you have bad stamina doesn't mean you are weaker than normal or can't get stronger. Goku was fatigued on Namek after throwing the Spirit Bomb yet still managed to become a SSJ. Goku was fatigued everytime he uses UI, yet he still got stronger after each time he uses it. The SSJ2 Goku that fought Kale and Caulifla in ep.113 was outright stated by several characters to be stronger than previous versions (despite having low stamina).

Claiming low stamina makes you weaker is like saying Android 17 is omnipotent because he has infinite stamina. People mainly use the "Goku was tired" argument to downplay Kale/Caulifla/Kefla, even though Goku was fatigued in all of his fights since episode 110 yet its never used to downplay Jiren or even Aniraza.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.

even with a supposedly anime Saiyan beyond God base. Goku is not soloing GT.
1. Gohan continued to for another day after beating Piccolo with his regained Mystic form. And Gohan now is clearly SSB level, even the narrator said that Gohan and SSB Goku were evenly matched. You are making the false assumption that transformations are tiers of powers with your argument about Gohan vs SSJ2 Goku.

2. Feats speak for themselves. There is no evidence for a retcon. Super consistently shows base Goku and Vegeta>>>>>>>All of Z. There isn't even a single line of dialogue that says their bases are only around were they were in Buu saga, thats just baseless headcanon made by people who don't want to believe base DBS Goku>>Z & GT. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QlThF-iGsdw Besides, Goku and Vegeta absorbing SSG into base is in the manga also. That's the point of this image: https://pm1.narvii.com/6359/9da96e36a79 ... b0a_hq.jpg

3. Beerus's power was never retconned either, people just don't pay attention to dialogue. Beerus at the end of the BoG arc told Whis that he lied about how much power he used against Goku the whole time.

4. There have been multiple universal/4D and even 5D feats and statements from characters far below Beerus in Super since BoG: Hit's time hax, Goku Black literally ripping through Space and Time with his scythe, Kefla claiming she could one shot a universe (which by scaling from BoG should by easy for her), suppressed Jiren casually transcending Time, 1st Omen Goku shaking Infinity, Infinite Zamasu (who is weaker than suppressed Jiren and 1st Omen Goku) affecting multiple universes and timelines, etc. All of this says there was no retcon. Its never said anywhere in the show itself nor in any official guide that only Zeno is multiversal, especially since the massively weaker Infinite Zamasu has a multiversal and 5D feat.

5. And even if you don't believe the whole saiyan beyond god thing, BoG SSG Goku should be enough to solo GT by feats and scaling, since SSJ4 Goku still wasn't even stronger than Buu saga Vegito for half of GT, and Omega Shenron could only destroy the universe via chain reaction like Buuhan.

Would you really believe a writer (Toshio) who's own opinions never got confirmed by Toriyama and got explicitly debunked by the show itself after he said them?
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.
