Well you yust proved my theory. Only thing is why would you say they didnt reached limits in base,ssj, if they hit wall ? You do realize Goku sad getting stronger isnt an option ( because he neads transformation that would give him enough space to get stronger ).
Because once they overcome that wall, they can continue to get stronger once more.

Training in ssj2 and to get stronger but not in forms they already reached limit is imo because nothing says they got stronger in base,ssj after 7 years.

That doesn't really work though, because the forms are only multipliers.

If forms are only multiplys then why did Goku got stronger in FPSSJ. Why did he trained in ssj, and why did he sad FPSSJ reached limit in Cell saga.

"Full-power Super Saiyan" is just the regular Super Saiyan form with more control.

They got stronger with using FPSSJ and basicly they got same multiply for FPSSJ and SSJ, but have acces to more power they earned with training.

It's like DBZGTKOSDH said, eventually the training at hand doesn't bear the same results that it once did. So in order to get more powerful better methods of training are required, and not everyone gets the training that Goku did in the afterlife.
First of all saiyans are not humans. Second of all its transformation what makes things diffrent and not diffrent training. You do realize they train full body every day. This is not real life where you change workout methods to get diffrent results. Goku achived limit of SSJ state. Its called FPSSJ. There is no other way in improving in the strongest SSJ form without transforming in even more powerful state.
I disagree. I don't believe that anyone reaches a limit to their base power. Their training methods just aren't good enough, so they don't appear to improve very much. Also, I don't believe their is a limit to any SSJ form. SSJ is a multiplier of one's base power so the form will get more powerful as the base power is raised. The other transformations are used when one needs an even more powerful boost in strength. It's not that the previous form is useless because it can't get any more powerful, it's just that the next form draws out more power and is more useful for the situation.

Still it's ironic that they made themselves many many times more powerfull while trying to break the Super Saiyan barrier, and that barrier was only a 2 times multiplier. :roll:

I basically agree with Gabool. Dragon Ball is almost always about finding the next training method. Goku trained under Kamesennin until he had nothing left to teach him, then left and learned from someone stronger. He had his dormant power drawn out and thought he was the strongest person in the world, only to find once again that he still had room to improve, and grew more under Popo and Kami. After Kaio, Goku himself said he thought he'd hit some sort of peak of power, only to see how much farther above him Vegeta still was, and he proceeded to do some of his most intense training yet in order to surpass that.

In the end, I do find it hard to believe there is some kind of hard limit to how strong these guys can get. There are walls, limits, peaks, etc, but only until you find the next way to overcome them. The stronger they get, the harder it is to find these new training methods, and that's when transformations start to become more important--but that's less a hard, insurmountable limit and more a question of practicality, I think.

I guess it's like Old Kai said, transforming is the wrong way of doing thing.

I think you have been reading a different manga;

Goku: “Sorry I bad-mouthed you before. Please forgive me. I just wanted to know your true ability. You’re exactly the person I thought you were. As amazin’ as I expected. ”

So...yeah. Enraged Oob = Pure Boo in terms of power.

He realized Uub has potential not that base Goku > Kid buu lol

Read : Image
Doesn't disprove anything lol. One of the worst counters I have seen. Goku states that Oob's 'true power' was as good as he expected and he expected to have a rematch with Pure Boo's incarnation.

@Your later post, it's just another load of incoherent nonsense that doesn't disprove anything. No one is using GT logic. It's stated in the manga itself.

Enraged Oob~Pure Boo~base Goku(eoz).

While I used to believe that before, I've now changed my mind. Enraged Oob may be almost equal in power with Pure Boo, but I believe Oob can't control properly this power. Plus, he can't fly, he can't use any ki attacks besides Kiai, and he is not a skillfull & experienced fighter. Which would result base Goku being capable on holding his own against Oob without having to become a SSJ.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Well I am talking power wise. I'm not arguing that Oob is Pure Boo's equal in terms of ability.
I don't see any way around making Goku's base at least very close to his SSjin3 from the Boo arc. Goku did say he would need to get much better for their rematch. You could probably chalk that down to him eliminating the strain of SSjin3 and focusing on his base and thus he would be 'much better'.

Most people I know don't even have him come close to his SS form from the Boo arc, and for good reason: It's a ridiculous gain to make.

I checked the Strength Checker regarding Oob's strength and nothing suggests that Oob displayed a power on par with Pure Boo's, just that he's as amazing as Goku expected, which can mean many things, like that Goku was made sure that Oob really has hidden powers within himself.

Whats funny is that you actualy belive Uub was Kid buu in powers but its never stated like that. Its only stated that Uub is strong and that he didnt learnd to use his strenght, which means base Goku is not strong because he reached peak.
Goku saying he neads to go 100% (ssj3) before realizing Uub is weakling is what makes Goku also weak and on peak.
Because of peoples like you, almost everyone thinks Goku after 10 years > Mystic Gohan which is pretty much bullshit.
Oh yea here is proof that Uub is only strong and not Kid buu in powers.

Image

Btw next time show me proof and then prove me wrong.

"You are who i though you were" is in translation Kid buu.

Super Vegetto, you really should stop relying on those scanlations if you're trying to prove your point. Leaving aside the fact that they're illegal, their translation is completely, misleadingly wrong in a lot of places. For example:
Super Vegetto wrote:Goku saying he neads to go 100% (ssj3) before realizing Uub is weakling is what makes Goku also weak and on peak.
He isn't talking about Super Saiyan 3. He says he wants to fight Uub when they both have 100% of their stamina in tact.
Chapter: 518 (DBZ 324), P10.2
Context: Goku asks Boo to rig the match-ups so he can fight Oob
Goku: “…Sorry, but I wanna fight with him no matter what, in the 1st round when both of us still have 100% of our stamina…”
And I don't see why the only explanation for Goku not being stronger than Buu or Mystic Gohan is that he must have hit an impassable limit. It's possible to think he didn't get that strong without also thinking he could never get any stronger.

Again, I'm not saying your idea that Goku reached his limit and didn't get any stronger after the Cell saga is wrong. Some people believe that, and it's a pretty valid interpretation. But other people interpret it another way, and the evidence you're trying to use isn't solid or accurate enough to prove their way wrong.

Why he neads 100% stamina if he is all mighy without transforming ? You do relize his stamina gets bigger with transformation because body is taking transformation diffrently. Its SSJ > Kaio-ken 50x btw because of stamina...
Goku saying he neads 100% stamina is ssj3 because thats his 100% stamina. He realized Uub cant fight so he goes easly on him. If Uub is realy Kid buu in powers during world tournament than his statment of 100% is false because he didnt got scratch against Uub who is (Kid buu in powers) but Uub is weak which is the reason Goku did fought him in yust base and not all out.

Its stated they reached limit before Cell games so its your word vs manga word. I'm going by what is stated and not what others stated for now.
