Is Recoome human?

Post by warrior72989 » Fri Sep 24, 2010 8:50 pm

Saiyans totally look human, but they are born with a tail. But there is nothing unusual that would separate Recoome from humans. He is freakishly tall though. Also, Recoome is a totally awesome character.

No, just another example of impossibly similar interplanetary species.

Recoome is an alien who looks like a human. He is not one, unless he's one from a different planet with powers and whatnot, but I don't think so.

Is he of Earth? Probably not. Is he human? Yup.

Saiyans are humans, Namekians are humans, Freeza's human. They're just not of Earth.

He obviously is a human, since aliens are humans too, in DB terms. But there's no reason to think that he's from Earth.

Maybe he is in the dub version.... with mutated strength due to generations of inbreeding.

Recoome is FAR to big/too tall to be human.

Dub Recoome is really from another time line, he killed the original in the mainstream time line. Also that inbreeding stuff, yeah it's all true. Guys, be scared.

Freeza also had several human-type soldiers that used guns instead of firing off ki of their own.

So I notice that aliens are almost always either nearly the same as humans or really grotesque. Recoome is like if those two types got together and there children had a son with each other.

He sealed that deal when he said RECOOME BOOOOOM. :mrgreen:


But Recoome is too big and tall to be human, I guess.

I'd say Reacoom isn't a human-type Earthling, he just comes from a planet that has inhabitants that are similar to humans, like the Saiyans. It's probably not all that uncommon in the Dragon World. Jheese would look like a human from Earth if it wasn't for his red skin, and some of Freeza's soldiers looked similar to Earthlings as well. Hmm, I think this opens up the theory that Vegeta may not have been a virgin before he met Bulma after all...

Could you explain what convergent evolution is?

I don't have like exact measurements, but he is the tallest of the Ginyu Force standing much taller than Burter and Ginyu. I would count Goku as an average human's height and he was round about the height of Ginyu, so if Recoome is heads taller than all of them, that's far too tall.

The one thing that got dull after awhile was EVERYONE usually had to arms and two legs. Out of the entire universe thats always how they looked. I wish ONCE a villian had 4 arms, that would make for SUCH a better battle strategy and moves. Just imagine a villian pops up in front of you, grabs you by the shoulders and lifts you into the aim awhile another set of hands are charngin a ki blast point blank in your face. Now THAT'S an ultimate. [Think Machamp in DBZ world]
