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.

Re: Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods
Does anyone else find this hilarious? Super Saiyan God came to stop the bad Saiyans, but the time limit ran out - so the person who originally was the SSG probably got his ass waxed by those very same bad Saiyans the moment the form ran dry, lol.
I don't understand...Super Saiyan God appears long time ago on Planet Vegeta to stop bad Saiyans, than time limit ran out and he got beaten by those saiyans...but so you can became a Super Saiyan God without being able to transform in normal Super Saiyan??? 'cause i can't believe that a normal Super Saiyan can be defeated by bad Saiyans, when his SSG state ran out...sorry for my bad english guys...what do you think??
Re: Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods
Indeed. Leaves plenty of time for things like Gohan and Videl (apparently) getting married, Kuririn and Videl to change their hair, Goku to catch up to Gohan and Gotenks the slackers in power...Gyt Kaliba wrote:I like that theory, or outlook rather. That and, if this movie was really set two years after the Boo arc, it runs dangerously close to the exact same time frame as the JSAT special, so spreading it out a little more is better.
... Oh, and I just realized it fits THIS pretty darn well.

That does resemble what really did happen in GT, where the other Saiyans popped in and loaned Super Saiyan 4 Goku their "Saiya power" to finish off Baby. So yeah, that COULD work as a sort of adaptation of that... but it'd also be lame. I'm trying to keep my storytelling fresh by avoiding just recycling solutions to past battles. I'd prefer to work around or avoid using "Super Saiyan God" just as much as I'm avoiding using the Spirit Bomb. For that main general reason, I may be better off just letting GTR remain its own thing, spun off from just the manga and only making small nods towards anything else.Nex Carnifex wrote:I'm sure you can come up with something, the possibilities are endless when writing fiction :0 I think a cool idea is Goku goes SS4 and Baby responds by becoming Golden Oozaru, and SS4 still isn't enough as Baby continuously absorbs energy from the mind controlled Earthlings. Goku calls upon the power of the Super Saiyan God however, utilizing his Saiyan family, and becomes a Super Saiyan 4 God, with glowing red fur and hair.

Re: Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods
Yeah, I remember early in the Great Saiyaman stuff, he appeared much taller...then when he reappears later in the Buu saga he's barely even bigger than he was 7 years prior.Pantalones wrote:I don't see a problem with Goten, Trunks or Marron's ages vs. how old they appear. Goten and Trunks are part Saiyan (and we know that Goku didn't look like a teenager at age 12 or even at age 15), and Marron is part Krillin (and he also stayed a runt for a long time before finally getting taller.)
Of course, future Trunks seems to have had "Gohan-type" aging while main-timeline Trunks has "Goku-type" aging. Guess that's yet another timeline difference.
Dende jumping back and forth between teenager-sized and older-kid-sized (and then adult-sized by the time Uub shows up) is more of an inconsistency, but then again he was inconsistent even in the original series, so...

From the way SSG sounds, I don't even count it as a transformation. It's sounds like just a power-up, like the Kaioken.

To me it sounds more like the Elder Namek and Elder Kaioshin's unlock abilities (as in, they're permanent/sorta tappable at will).NeoKING wrote:From the way SSG sounds, I don't even count it as a transformation. It's sounds like just a power-up, like the Kaioken.

Re: Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods
Hmm...if that's the way it works, I wonder if Goku would be able to go Super Saiyan 3, with his Super Saiyan God powers on top of that, and then take it even further with some Kaio-ken action? That'd be a little too much, but I do wonder.NeoKING wrote:From the way SSG sounds, I don't even count it as a transformation. It's sounds like just a power-up, like the Kaioken.
