Ginyu's True Indentity?

Post by Jerseymilk » Sat Feb 07, 2004 1:14 pm

Okay, I want everyone's thoughts on this one. This kid asked me if I thought Ginyu had ever used his "Change" technique before his encounter with Goku. Meaning that is the body that Ginyu has when we meet him, his original body? Has he switched bodies at least once or twice before? I thought it was a really good question actually. I know it's not likely since he probably hasn't encountered anyone like Goku, but still...it gives pause for thought. Does anyone else have an opinion about this? I'd love to everyone's thoughts here on the subject.

Good point.

He does say something along the lines of "This is what I've been waiting for" when he finds out that Goku is stronger than him, which could be taken to mean that he's been waiting his whole life to find someone with a stronger body, so that he can steal it.

I would think that he has done it before, just not permanately. I'm sure it might give him the upper hand against some opponents, while they're too confused to have the slgihtest clue as to what happened. But yeah, I think that's his original body.

But would you want to return back to your original body after you've pummeled it to death? Plus if the body you stole was stronger or had better special ablilities, why would you want to give it back?

Well, no bodies were stronger. And, you'd pummel yourself in their body. Well, come on, it's probably easier than just attacking them without any body switching. And, yeah. The confuse part. Emphasis on that.

Edit: Hurray, I'm totally beyond newbie now. I'm going to treat this honour as if it's beyond SSJ, and go challenge random jocks at the gym. If I don't come back, it must be because I challenged my computer to a fight, and ownzed it. Not because I lost to a jock. Yeah, like that would happen.

It might have a smaller winkie.

Hey, it means a lot to a man! And any who say otherwise are lying.

Does this mean Jersey and I are SSJ3? SWEET! Fanboyism for life!

Concerning Ginyu, Jeece knew about the technique before Ginyu used it. Most likely Ginyu had a PL under 120,000 at one point and came across the body we first see him in.

He said "winkie". That puts you in the position of "Archnemesis of Sex". Congratulations, HITLER. Oh, I'm sorry, I meant Jerserymilk. Why on earth did I say Hitler?

Edit: My name is totally Dayspring during this post.

Look I'm just wondering because there's been more than one comment of sexual nature this morning. I'm just wondering, especially since Psyliam actually wants to see Majin Buu and Dodoria naked!! :shock: Now Zackarotto your Hitler comment. Do you for some reason associate Hitler with sex? Now back to topic! Ya I think Jees' comment "That's right! It's Captain Ginyu!!", hints at the possibility that Ginyu has done this before. You could argue that Ginyu has probably just told him about it, but I find that Jees it not at all suprised to actually see the technique done.

Yeah, well like I had said, this doesn't prove it's not his original body. Temporary switches, remember?

Zakarotto you swine! You shall pay dearly for both insulting my Jersey and blaming it on me! I won't say when or how, but it will be in a long time when you least expect. Like when you're on your deathbead dying of pain! So once you come of your delerium after you've ripped out your I.V. to end the pain, note that it was really ME removing it, exacting my revenge!! BUWAHAHAHAHAH!!! :twisted:

Aw crap, I just told you when and how I'd kill you. :shock:
Now I gotta come up with something new. Um...uh... aw frag it. 8)

Okay, I guess now that it's out in the open, I'll just say I used Hitler because I associate his name with the enemy of things that are considered good. Something like that, anyway.
