Official Unofficial Power Level Discussion Thread

[RandomGuy96]

You should also remember that A. the kaio-ken x2 drained Goku heavily and he knew it and B. Goku and Vegeta are pretty much evenly matched skill wise. Officially an 80 can go toe to toe with a 100 on relatively even terms (though yes, Freeza still lost handily) so there's no reason why a 88 shouldn't be able to beat a 100 if s/he's skilled enough, though an amplified blast likely will be the kill shot. There are obviously other factors besides skill and power as well, including durability, stamina (quite important as shown by the ineffectiveness of powerful but inefficient power-ups like kaio-ken x3 in the Saiyan Saga, USS in the Cell Saga, and SS3 in the Buu Saga), and techniques (amplified blasts and various tricks like solar flares and kienzans).

[Mjb1985]

Goku was only in Kaioken very briefly and did not appear to have any stamina issues imo. It wasn't until Kkx3 did we see any signs of strain or endurance issues.

I understand with what your saying but if Kkx2 Goku who is evenly skilled as 18,000 Vegeta , cannot hope to have a chance considering the difference in power , what chance does Freeza have to close an even larger gap while he is not as skilled as Goku? Freeza even when his power dropped off was still able to manage some competitive back and forth while Goku had absolutely nothing to offer Vegeta.

If you take battle powers out of it, it looks pretty clear that Vegeta is a lot more dominant over Goku , than Goku was over Freeza. Goku brings up Freeza's skill deficiencies twice during their battle as well. First when Base Goku fought Initial True Form Freeza when they got serious , Goku mentions how Freeza is too cocky and his defense is not too good and he leaves himself wide open. Which to me suggests that Goku shouldn't have been able to be competitive with the level Freeza was putting out but Goku's superior skills allowed him to do so.

That I can understand. What I can't understand is Freeza , the inferior skilled fighter managing to land a couple of hits on someone who is supposed to be stronger than him by a larger margin than Vegeta was to Goku , who was completely helpless against Vegeta.

[Kamiccolo9]

You're missing a zero on Goku's power in movie 4, and you've got the wrong title for movie 7, but otherwise a pretty good list. I like how you managed to keep Piccolo as the strongest in movies 6 and 7, where he logically should be stronger than Goku and Vegeta.

[RandomGuy96]

Ah, thank you. And no I didn't. That was just a joke: I think Super 13 looks like Broly with red hair.

Yeah, I plucked them from their Android Saga levels and it's stated repeatedly in both those movies that Piccolo was fused. Conveniently, though, he stayed out of the fight until the villain was already so ultra-powerful that his superiority over Goku (and those other guys) didn't matter.

[Mjb1985]

Piccolo being fused with Kami means he has to be his Android level self no matter what?

[Kamiccolo9]

Ah, thank you. And no I didn't. That was just a joke: I think Super 13 looks like Broly with red hair.

Yeah, I plucked them from their Android Saga levels and it's stated repeatedly in both those movies that Piccolo was fused. Conveniently, though, he stayed out of the fight until the villain was already so ultra-powerful that his superiority over Goku (and those other guys) didn't matter.

Ah, my bad. Yeah I can see it

[dbzfan7]

I'll give it a go.

I'm stronger then you>Unbelievable he is so strong

No....Guess I better go back to the drawing board.

[Mjb1985]

@ Bejita

I think...

Piccolo > 20 Post > Sick Goku , 19 Post


Vegeta was more impressed with 20 than he was with 19. 20 was perhaps within reaching distance of Vegeta with a couple more Absorbtions.

[BejitaSama]

I think...

Piccolo > 20 Post > Sick Goku , 19 Post


Vegeta was more impressed with 20 than he was with 19. 20 was perhaps within reaching distance of Vegeta with a couple more Absorbtions.

That's interesting !
I admit that I have a lot of difficulties to evaluate the power of 19 and 20...Stronger than Freeza at 100% ? I really don't know, because if you go by this way, that means that Piccolo is also superior to Freeza...Why not ? But it seems weird to me.

Bejita was more impressed by n°20 ? I don't remember where. Can you develop this ?
And do you think sick Goku is inferior to his battle power of 150,000,000 against Freeza ?

[Mjb1985]

Vegeta was surprised by 20's speed and had to actual consider 20 as a threat after absorbing a suppressed Piccolo again. Vegeta doesn't think much of 19.

Piccolo doesn't seem very far off from Vegeta, probably a similar level as to what he was in the Freeza Saga.

[RandomGuy96]

He seemed very far off. Also Android 20 can't do math to save his life, and Piccolo at one point had to lecture him about how useless the energy he took is.

I think I'm going to do one more power level list. A list that abides by the theory that the base saiyans never surpassed 100% Freeza. I don't really believe that still because it just comes from a movie (other movies do have the base saiyans stronger than Freeza) and there's a chance Goku was suppressed. Chances are I never will believe it unless Toriyama comes right out and says "I wrote that line of dialogue and retroactively apply it to everything". Plus it kind of forces me to abandon my rule that kid Gohan is only stronger than teen Gohan with rage boosts.

[Mjb1985]

I disagree, Vegeta had to consider the possibility of 20 becoming stronger than him. Piccolo isn't leaps and bounds behind Vegeta, probably the same placement he always is.

[RandomGuy96]

I attempted to do that base saiyans < Freeza list. Right as I started the Buu Saga I noticed that my numbers were eerily similar to TheMightyOzaru's, with only relatively minor changes, so I decided to abandon it.

[Victorious]

@ Bejita

I think...

Piccolo > 20 Post > Sick Goku , 19 Post


Vegeta was more impressed with 20 than he was with 19. 20 was perhaps within reaching distance of Vegeta with a couple more Absorbtions.

Your writing is very familiar bro.

[RandomGuy96]

Remember what I said earlier? I lied. Sort of. I redid that list I was working on and I'm happy with it now. This is my list that abides by the theory that the base saiyans never surpassed Freeza- something I'm still not sure if I believe. I'll have to wait until more info about BOG is released, or I know more about it in general. And I know it may be a little annoying that I've posted so many lists (I think this is my fourth?). Sorry, but I swear this will be my last for a while. Though I may add the movies to this list as well...

NOTE: I lack EOZ numbers or BOG numbers- but I'd just like to say one thing: I think that in the Buu Saga, Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan are as strong as they'll ever be. Unless one of them discovers a new transformation, they've hit their limit.

MULTIPLIERS

Super Saiyan- x50
--Grade 2- x75
--Grade 3- x125
--Super Saiyan 2- x100
--Super Saiyan 3- x400
--Legendary Super Saiyan- x125

Freeza's Species: natural max is what Freeza referred to as 50% of his power. Counterpart to Super Saiyan.
-"100% power": x2. Counterpart to Grade II Super Saiyan.
-Fifth Form: x4. Counterpart to Super Saiyan 2.

"Muscle Mode": x1.5. Generic power up used by several species, involving artificially pumping up your body with ki. Users include Freeza's clan, Super Saiyans, Makyans, and humans.

Super Hera- x2

Kaio-Ken- x(level of Kaio-Ken)

Namekian Fusion- (A + B) x 10. Rejoining after a fission is exempt from this rule and has its own set.

Dance Fusion- (A + B) x 10
--Only works when both fusees are suppressed to absolute equal power levels. So in other words it's actually B x 2 x 10.

Potara Fusion- (A + B) x Y
--Y is dependent on how close the fusee's powers are. Vegettto's was (A + B) x 100.

Attacks:
-Kamehameha (mastered)- x1.5
-Special Beam Cannon (inexperienced)- x1.6
-Light Grendade- x2
-Galick Gun- x1.7
-Final Flash- x3
-Supernova- x1.8
-Super Kamehameha- x2.22

NOTE: A tiny bit of rounding is involved in these attacks to keep the numbers clean. If you want an in-universe reason you can dismiss it as varying states of energy usage, injury, and mastery.

OTHER NOTE: An old Weekly Jump issue gave the power level of Goku at the 23rd Tournament as 910. As I think that this fits the story quite well, I've chosen to use that as my baseline for the Dragon Ball numbers while dispensing with the pre-Z V-Jump numbers, which were littered with errors. I assume that Raditz read Goku's and Piccolo's suppressed powers as 408 and 416, and Goku's true power only came out when firing the Kamehameha. Otherwise the scouter couldn't sense him, just like how Nappa's scouter read all of the Earthlings at weaker than Raditz.

EPISODE OF BARDOCK

Bardock- 12,000
--Super Saiyan- 600,000

Chilled- 106,000

(Bardock got a moderate zenkai, nothing ridiculous. He obviously can't do anything to Chilled in base, but immediately stomps him upon becoming a Super Saiyan. Chilled, I think, should be much, much weaker than Freeza's first form, considering how long ago this is.)

BARDOCK: FATHER OF GOKU

Bardock- 6,500
--Zenkai- 9,800
Tatapo- 2,400
Selypa- 2,800
Pambukin- 2,920
Toma- 3,600
King Vegeta- 10,000
Vegeta(Kid)- 11,000
Nappa- 6,000

(At the beginning of the special, Bardock is at a level that's ridiculously high for any saiyan. His comrades are described as similarly ridiculous. After he gets a zenkai, it's said that Bardock is nearing 10,000 and is expected to surpass King Vegeta soon. I always interpreted that as King Vegeta = 10,000. Vegeta brags about how he'd surpassed his father even as a child. Lastly, there's Nappa. Here, he's in his prime as a battle hardened saiyan general. His power would decrease with age, as he got less and less real combat experience and decided to train less and less. His age ultimately caught up with him, resulting in him being weaker than he was in his prime.)

Freeza- 500,000
Zarbon- 20,000
Dodoria- 18,000
Dodoria's Elites- 4,000

(They don't train, but Freeza and his men all have room to get naturally stronger to the Namek Saga due to their apparent long life spans. Dodoria's elite soldiers are able to kill off Bardock's squad without much trouble, and give him a lot of trouble when working as a team, but Bardock still overcomes them through a bit of clever thinking.)

Red Ribbon Army Arc

(just a few important ones)

Karin- 190
Goku- 55
--Post-Karin training- 165
Bora- 46

Tao- 110

(I know I said that I was going to ignore the V-Jump numbers for the original Dragon Ball, but the numbers for Tao and Karin work fine, so I keep them. Goku at first gets trashed by Tao effortlessly (along with Bora), but after the Karin training, he easily crushes Tao. Karin even said that he got several times stronger just in that relatively brief period.

22nd Tournament/Tien Arc

Goku- 180
Roshi- 139
Krillin- 105
Yamcha- 90

Tien- 160
Crane Hermit- 120
Chiaotzu- 85

King Chappa- 80
Pamput- 30

(Goku got a little stronger since he beat Tao. This proves too much for Tien, but Tien is able to narrowly pull a victory due to his crazy techniques as well as the infamous ring technicality. No one else is really a match for these two, even Roshi, who gets defeated without much trouble. Shen/Crane Hermit is at his V-Jump level because again it works fine. Chiaotzu is able to briefly keep up with Krillin, but is of course much weaker than him, having to rely on psychic powers to hold out. He would've been successful too if not for Krillin's tricks.

King Piccolo Saga

Goku- 180
--"Match Level"- 120
--Post-God Water- 500
Tien- 165
Roshi- 139
Yajirobe- 130
Krillin- 106
Yamcha- 90

(Goku is at first King Piccolo's bitch. But after drinking the god water, he becomes his equal, and his able to narrowly defeat him. No one else changes much in this short time, though Tien may have gotten a little stronger during learning the Mafuba. Yajirobe was on par with a suppressed "match level" Goku but was shocked to see Goku go all out against Tambourine.)

King Piccolo- 450
--Half Power (vs Goku Round 1)- 225
--Young- 530
Drum- 210
Tambourine- 140
Cymbal- 105
Piano- 7

(King Piccolo can stomp Goku in his old state at less than half power, and gets better in every way after becoming young. I had all of his son's power levels be multiples of seven because shut up. Tambourine is able to handle most of Earth's martial artists effortlessly, most impressively Krillin, but is stomped by a serious and well fed Goku. Cymbal is much weaker than his brother but is still strong enough to take most of Earth's fighters, and strong enough that Yajirobe killing him is seen as an impressive feat. Drum is strong enough to crush Tien but gets one shotted by Goku.)

Kami- 700
Popo- 560

(Both of them stomp Goku after he finishes defeating King Piccolo, though in Popo's case this is mainly due to his superior skills and the ability to sense ki. Kami is "much more wonderful" than Popo in everything, from powers to abilities, such as creating the dragon balls, and wisdom. He even stops Goku with his finger. However, he is by no measure in his prime.)

23rd Tournament

Goku- 910
--Weighted/Suppressed (vs Tien)- 600
Kami/Shen- 700
Tien- 560
Krillin- 350
Yamcha- 300
Yajirobe- 250
Chi Chi- 130

Piccolo Junior- 890
Cyborg Tao- 440
Crane Hermit- 120

(Tao said that his abilities were many times greater than they were before. However, this is still no match for Tien. Speaking of Tien, he says that the Goku he fights at the tournament is stronger than the one that beat King Piccolo, and Tien was more or less matching him punch for punch and dominating in speed. That is, until Goku removes his weights... then he shoots up to the level V-Jump had him at. Piccolo is just a tiny bit inferior. The others have also made large gains, just like Tien has. Except Yajirobe. He's grown, but not very much, since he's lazy.)

Garlic Jr. Attacks Earth

Goku- 920
Piccolo- 900
Kami- 650
Krillin- 400
Gohan (angry)- 1,309

(Everyone is just a tiny bit weaker than they are when Raditz arrives. Except Kami, who has further declined due to his age, but he's not quite on his death bed yet.)

Garlic Jr- 820
--Full Power- 1,230
Nicky- 400
--Full Power- 600
Sansho- 380
--Full Power- 570
Ginger- 360
-Full Power- 540

(Garlic Jr.'s henchmen can take out Piccolo with surprise and numbers on their side, but without that, they're easily thrashed. They are, however, stronger than Krillin, hence why he didn't try to fight them. Garlic Jr himself is strong enough to defeat Goku and Piccolo separately easily, but is overwhelmed by their combined power. Because of this, he's not as strong as Raditz, who stomped Goku and Piccolo even they came at him together and forced Piccolo to pull out a haxxed technique and forced Goku to sacrifice himself.)

SAIYAN SAGA

Arrival of Raditz

Goku- 924
--Suppressed- 416
Piccolo- 905
--Suppressed- 408
--Special Beam Cannon- 1,440
Gohan- 2
--Gohan(Angry)- 1,307
Tenshinhan- 625
--Resting- 250
Krillin- 515
--Resting- 206
Yamcha- 443
--Resting- 177
Master Roshi- 139

Raditz- 1,500

(Mostly going off the Weekly Jump numbers and scaling appropriately for the humans. Every other levels comes from the manga or Daizenshuu.)

Arrival of Nappa and Vegeta

Goku: 8,000
--Kaioken x2: 16,000
--Kaioken x3: 24,000
---Drained- 21,000
----x3 Kamehahema- 31,500

Piccolo: 3,500
Tenshinhan: 1,830
Krillin: 1,770
Yamcha: 1,480
Gohan: 1,000
--Angry- 2,800
Mr Popo: 1,030
Yajirobe: 970
Chaozu: 610
--Suicide Attack- 2,440
Kami- 220

(All official numbers. Too easy. Except for the suicide attack, that was my own multiplier. I based it off Piccolo thinking that Chiaotzu's explosion actually significantly harmed a guy who can pwn Tien. Kami is basically on his death bed, as he says in the android arc, and so is much weaker than he was several years ago.)

Vegeta- 18,000
--Galick Gun- 32,400
--Drained and Injured- 9,000
---Oozaru- 90,000
--Drained and Injured further- 3,000

--Suicide Attack- 4,800

(All official numbers. Too easy. Except for the Galick Gun, which I just made very slightly stronger than Goku's Kaio-Ken x3 Kamehameha.)

Tree of Might

Goku- 35,000
--Kaio-Ken x2- 70,000
--Kaio-Ken x10- 350,000
Piccolo- 18,000
Gohan- 10,000
--Oozaru- 100,000
Tien- 6,000
Krillin- 5,800
Yamcha- 5,000
Chaozu- 2,000

(Goku's, Piccolo's, and Gohan's levels were stated in the movie. Well, not Goku's, but he was placed at "30,000 and rising". For everyone else, I just made Tien a little over three times as strong as he was in the Saiyan Saga and scaled everyone according to him.)

Turles- 30,000
--First Fruit- 450,000
--Second Fruit- 900,000
Amond- 20,000
Daiz- 16,000
Cacao- 13,000
Those Two Purple Guys- 7,500

(Turles was afraid of a power level that was rising over 30,000 and got beaten by Goku before eating the fruit. After eating the fruit, he becomes so powerful that he casually stomps kaio-ken x10 Goku. I assume that after the second fruit he became twice as powerful as he was when he ate the first fruit. As for his henchmen: they all tooled the humans, and gave trouble to Goku, but got pwned soon after.)

FREEZA SAGA

Prior To Super Long Battle With Freeza

Goku- 90,000
--Kaio-Ken x2- 180,000
--Kaio-Ken x10- 900,000
Vegeta- 24,000
--First Zenkai- 30,000
--Second Zenkai- 250,000
Krillin- 2,100
--Initial Potential Unlocked- 13,000
--Potential Unlocked vs Ginyu-Goku- 25,000
Gohan- 1,600
--Initial Potential Unlocked- 14,000
--Potential Unlocked vs Ginyu-Goku- 27,000
Nail- 42,000
Elite Namekian Warriors- 10,000
Namekian Warriors- 3,000

(MOAR official numbers)

Freeza- 530,000
Zarbon- 23,000
--Transformed- 30,000
Dodoria- 22,000
Cui- 18,000
Freeza Soldiers (Namek village)- 1,300
Freeza Soldiers (common)- 500-1000
Banan- 980
Sui- 840

(MOAR official numbers. Again, the numbers for those two Freeza scouts come from a video game, but the level works so whatever. The soldiers at the Namekian village laughed the Namekians when they thought that their power levels were 1,000.)


Captain Ginyu- 120,000
--Goku's Body- 23,000
Jeice- 42,000
Burter- 41,000
Reccoome- 40,000
Guldo- 6,000

(Ginyu's level is official. The other, I just guestimated on their performances. Except Recoome, his level actually was stated... again, in a video game, but it works. Jeice and Burter are stated to be about equal with Recoome. Jeice's Crusher Ball is strong enough that Goku actually cares enough to dodge it.)

Tien- 102,000
--Multiform Clones- 51,000
Yamcha- 53,000
Chaozu- 34,000

(Cause This is Filleeeeeeer! Fill-er Night!)

Super Long Battle With Freeza

Goku- 3,000,000
--Kaio-Ken x10- 30,000,000
--Kaio-Ken x20- 60,000,000
---Drained and Injured- 50,000,000
----x20 Kamehameha- 75,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 150,000,000
Vegeta- 250,000
--Final Zenkai- 2,300,000
---Crying- 18,000
Piccolo- 78,000
--Weighted- 58,000
--Fused With Nail (Weighted)- 1,000,000
----Without Weights 1,200,000
Gohan- 200,000
Krillin- 75,000

(All except Piccolo and Vegeta are official. For Piccolo, he was slightly weaker than first form Freeza at first, but was winning due to skill. Freeza powered up again and Piccolo still held the advantage. Then he powered up yet again, and Piccolo starts losing. Then he removes his weights confident in his victory, and we never got to see what happened after, since Freeza immediately transformed. For Vegeta, everyone was at least confident he'd be able to do SOMETHING against Freeza, which they wouldn't think if he was weaker than Freeza's third form.)

(On Goku's Kamehameha: it was pretty heavily implied that Freeza temporarily shot up his power to deflect it. I say 70% power, which is enough for him to counter an injured Goku's Kamehameha with a one handed blast of his own.)

Freeza- 530,000 (first form)
--Second Form- 1,000,000
----Second Form First Power Up- 1,100,000
----Second Form Second Power Up- 1,200,000 (1%)
--Third Form- 2,000,000
----Third Form Power Up (unseen)- 2,400,000 (2%)
--Initial Final Form - 3,600,000 (3%)
--Final Form (50%)- 60,000,000
--Final Form (70%) (brief burst)- 84,000,000
--Final Form (100%)- 120,000,000

(All official numbers, except for Freeza's third and second forms. I made them 1 and 2 percent respectively of his true power just because I like it that way. It fits what's shown anyway.)

Lord Slug

Goku- 3,300,000
--Kaio-Ken x10- 33,000,000
--Kaio-Ken x20- 66,000,000
--False Super Saiyan- 165,000,000
--Kaio-Ken x100: 330,000,000
Piccolo- 1,500,000

(Everyone is at the level they were on Namek, since I assume that this is where the timeline diverged to result in this movie. Okay, everyone's gotten a LITTLE stronger. Goku never unlocked the SS transformation, but does briefly access the False Super Saiyan, which has the same power but a very short time limit. This form is enough to man handle Slug but quickly wears off.)

Lord Slug- 65,000,000
--Young- 130,000,000
--Giant- 200,000,000
Angira- 1,400,000
Wings- 1,200,000
Medamathca- 1,100,000
--Mouth Blast- 2,200,000
Commander Zoon- 800,000

(Slug was stated to be stronger than Freeza by a good amount, in his giant form- I take this to mean final form Freeza, since I think that is an alternate universe where Freeza was killed by the Spirit Bomb. Given how he shrugged off Super Saiyan Goku's assault, Slug must be pretty damn strong. Furthermore, after he goes giant, he seems confident that he can take on the Super Saiyan (though Goku reverts right after) and King Kai says that not even a Super Saiyan can stand up to him. He's only defeated when Goku uses that haxxed kaio-ken he never uses again, which, according to some pamphlet, was a kaio-ken x100. His henchmen are as strong as they need to be for their confrontation with Piccolo. Wings gets pwned while Medamatcha is able to KO him with a mouth blast, Nappa style.)


CELL SAGA

Arrival of Mecha Freeza

Goku - 3,660,000
--Super Saiyan - 183,000,000
Trunks - 3,200,000
--Super Saiyan - 160,000,000
Piccolo - 3,300,000
Vegeta - 3,200,000

(Trunks was compared to Goku on Namek. Not explicitly in a power way, but it still seemed like they were on the same level. Otherwise, someone would've commented on it. He's stronger than Mecha Freeza and strong enough to one-shot Cold, though catching the former off-guard did help a lot. Goku has grown since Yardat, to the point where he deflects Trunks' blows with his finger and has Trunks practically squeeing over his power. Trunks even says that Goku is greater than the legends made him out to be.)

Mecha Freeza - 7,000,000 (suppressed)
--50% Power (vs Trunks)- 70,000,000
--Full Power (unseen)- 140,000,000
King Cold - 10,000,000 (suppressed)
--Full Power (unseen)- 100,000,000

(Freeza and Cold are both confirmed to be suppressed when they approach Earth, yet they still make everyone crap their pants. I have Freeza suppressed to a lower level than Cold as a way to sort of make sense of the anime, where it was stated that Cold's power made Freeza's look puny. Freeza said that he became more powerful after becoming MECHA, but he's still unsure about his ability to handle Namek Goku (which says something, considering Freeza's arrogance), relying on Cold for back-up. In the Daizenshuu, Cold is stated to be slightly inferior to Freeza, and in the manga Cold says that anyone that could beat Freeza would automatically be considered the strongest in the universe. So it's pretty obvious he's weaker than Freeza, but he rivals him.)

Cooler's Revenge

PRE-RETCON:

Cooler- 140,000,000
--Fifth Form- 6,400,000,000

Goku- 160,000,000
--Kaio-Ken x20- 3,200,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 8,000,000,000

(I honestly think this is what the filmmakers intended. It seems blatantly obvious to me as a parallel of the Freeza fight. Goku gets an insanely haxxed zenkai, similar to the x33 zenkai on Namek. Cooler says that base Goku could definitely beat Freeza. This statement goes uncontradicted (in fact it's supported when Goku says that he's going to show him the power capable of killing Freeza right before attacking him in base). He was also completely confident in taking on the guy who killed his brother using just his base form. Of course you'd have to change this around to fit the movie into the timeline, but that doesn't change what's flat-out stated here. Going by the Battle of the Gods statement that base saiyans > Freeza, either Cooler or Goku in this movie could demolish anyone until SS2 Gohan and Super Perfect Cell show up. Now, on to my power levels that actually fit the timeline...)

(a year into the android training)

Goku- 4,060,000
--Super Saiyan- 203,000,000 (pre-zenkai)
--Post-zenkai- 5,400,000
---Kaio-Ken x10 - 54,000,000
---Kaio-Ken x20 - 108,000,000
----x20 Kamehameha - 162,000,000
---Super Saiyan - 270,000,000
----Kamehameha: 405,000,000
Piccolo - 5,000,000
Gohan- 2,000,000

(Goku and co have had a year to train since King Cold's death, so they've gotten stronger. Piccolo hasn't begun to train with SS Goku yet, as he's still weak enough that Goku's base is enough to spar with him. As a result his rate of progression is significantly smaller than it is in the rest of the training. Gohan got a big zenkai on Namek and has been training with Goku and Piccolo, and I see him generally around his base father by the time the androids arrive anyway. Still fodder to the squadron. Goku starts the movie stronger than his Yardrat self and continues to get stronger via a zenkai. After he's zenkai'd, Cooler concludes that Goku can beat Freeza before he uses any visible kaio-ken or Super Saiyan. I just go by the invisible kaio-ken theory (Goku used such a technique on Namek, at least in the anime), and assume that he was x10 during that battle. It made kaio-ken sounds and he clearly powered up a lot. The alternative is just doing the above and making his zenkai insanely haxxed.)

(Interesting note about Goku's kaio-ken x20: after Cooler transforms, Goku says that he's stronger than Freeza before launching a x20 Kamehameha at him. Then he gets incredibly shocked when Cooler simply flies through it. He even says "No way!". I think this is pretty clear: Goku expected that blast to at least hurt someone stronger than Freeza and it did nothing. Therefore Cooler isn't just a little stronger than Freeza, he's so much stronger that attacks that would kill or seriously injure Freeza don't even leave a scratch on him.)

(On Goku's Android Arc progression: I see it like this. Each year of training added 20 million to his power level, and the zenkai he got in this movie increased his level by 33%, just like Vegeta's first zenkai in the series. There's just a tiny bit of rounding at one point. See if you notice it.)

Cooler-
--"50%" Power/Natural Max (vs Goku Round 1)- 54,000,000
--Goku's Initial Estimation For Cooler ("greater than Freeza")/ Cooler powering up- 140,000,000
--Fifth Form: 216,000,000
---Supernova: 388,000,000
Salza: 3,400,000
Doore: 3,000,000
Neiz: 2,800,000

(Salza, Neiz, and Doore are STRONG for henchmen. Goku is unable to defeat all three of them (they even deflect his blasts, and force him to use effort to repel their blasts), and they expect to massacre a guy who defeated Freeza- probably a lower form, as it's not been established that Freeza was killed in his final form yet. That only gets established when Piccolo and Goku mistake Cooler for Freeza. Hell, Doore catches Goku's kick and puts him in a bear hug that gives Goku genuine pain and/or frustration. Given his performance against Piccolo, Salza should obviously be the strongest of the bunch, even if he was outmatched against Piccolo. I find their low-end Weekly Jump numbers (all of them below 200,000) to be absurdly improbable with all the amount of trouble they give Goku in their introduction and how well Salza does against Piccolo later, to say nothing of how the handle the massively above 200,000 Gohan, so I ignored them.)

(Speaking of Cooler: I believe Cooler was suppressed to 50% against Goku, as he never powered up or anything, and it would parallel the fight with Frieza. He concludes from this battle that Goku is strong enough to beat final form Freeza. Previously I believed this just meant the Goku he fought > 70% Freeza, but I've recently changed my mind. He just meant that Goku had the skill and power to take out 50% Freeza, as Freeza can shoot his power to 50% in an instant. He doesn't have to be quite as strong as Freeza to do this, just very close.)

(Anyway, Cooler transforms starts trouncing Goku, even when he uses kaio-ken x20. Cooler's final form level is based on many things: his earlier comment about Freeza, Goku's shock at his Kamehameha not working, supplemental materials (video games, magazines, et cetera), post-Yardrat Goku's level, the Daizenshuu/Movie 6 (both said that this movie was sometime in the Android Arc training), and him almost killing Goku and laughing off his assault even after he goes Super Saiyan. I don't actually believe that the gap was wider than it was between Goku and Freeza, just that Cooler half-assed that one punch and, more importantly, didn't hit Goku in the face. All three of Freeza's normal hits on Goku were in the face, and they still didn't do much. Generally it's easier to tank a gut punch than one to the face. Had he and Goku actually fought I actually think that Cooler would have done better than Freeza. He definitely seemed more durable and his techniques seemed deadlier.)

Trunks' Bad Future

Future Gohan- 2,800,000
--Super Saiyan: 140,000,000
---Anime Version- 300,000,000
Future Android 18- 240,000,000
Future Android 17- 250,000,000

(The future androids are stated to be MUCH weaker than the present androids, and it's never contradicted. Despite this, they still consistently hand Gohan and Trunks their Super Saiyan asses. At the time of his death, Gohan thinks that he's become stronger than the androids, but Future 17 reveals that he didn't even use half his power to kick Gohan's ass last time. So I just put that Gohan at a little stronger than the 17 that was explicitly much weaker than the main timeline 17. Pretty weak for a late Super Saiyan. However, in the anime version, we see what was in the manga an off-screen effortless stomp. Gohan actually manages to overcome 17 one on one and is only overwhelmed when both of them team up AND he gets tired. I put that Gohan on par with Android Arc Goku.)

Arrival of the Androids

Goku- 6,200,000
--Super Saiyan- 310,000,000
--Sick: <150,000,000
Vegeta- 6,500,000
--Super Saiyan: 325,000,000
Trunks- 4,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 220,000,000
Piccolo- 190,000,000

(Here we are in the Android Arc. Everyone's improved considerably, and they are ready to face the androids. Vegeta is stated to be slightly stronger than Goku, so there's that. Piccolo is confident in his ability to fight the androids who stomped Trunks (notice how I made post-absorbption 20 the same level as Mecha Arc Trunks?), while Trunks has improved to the point that he can be compared to Goku. Which is... not logical, but that's what's stated. He's still a lot weaker though, that much is obvious from 17's one-shotting of Trunks and Vegeta saying that Trunks would be trash in his fight with 18.)

Android 20- 100,000,000
--Vegeta and Piccolo's ki: 160,000,000
Android 19- 90,000,000
--Vegeta and Goku's ki: 220,000,000
Android 18- 380,000,000
Android 17- 400,000,000
Android 16- 700,000,000

(20 and 19 start out as weaklings, but after taking Goku's, Piccolo's, and Vegeta's energy, they all quickly shoot up. 19 (post) is implied to be too much for Piccolo, and is able to actually bloody Vegeta's lip. 20 got less of a boost, and, due to his complete lack of anything resembling fighting experience, as well as power disadvantage, he gets pwned by Piccolo.)

(17 is stated to be a bit stronger than 18, so there's that. Vegeta's actually able to put up a decent fight against 18, astounding everybody, but his stamina quickly runs out and the fight turns into a beatdown. Also, 18 has a naturally durable android body and doesn't even seem to feel pain. Nor did 17 in his fight with Piccolo. 16 is a good bit ahead of either of them, and he states according to his built in scouter that he's Imperfect Cell's equal.)

Return of Cooler

Goku- 6,200,000
--Super Saiyan- 310,000,000
--Sick: <150,000,000
Vegeta- 6,500,000
--Super Saiyan: 325,000,000
Piccolo- 380,000,000
Gohan- 4,000,000
Krillin- 525,000

(Everyone is at their Android Arc level)

Metal Cooler- 250,000,000
--First Repair- 500,000,000
--Second Repair- 700,000,000

(At first, Metal Cooler is disposed of relatively quickly by Goku. But after he heals, he proceeds to stomp out both Goku AND Vegeta (with seemingly much more ease than 18 when she just took out Vegeta), and goes on to massacre a Piccolo that was explicitly stated to be fused.)

Imperfect Cell Shows Up

Imperfect Cell Initial- 350,000,000
--Post-human meal- 700,000,000
Piccolo: 380,000,000
--Exhausted- 320,000,000
---Light Grenade- 640,000,000

(At first, Imperfect Cell is weak. At least relatively so. He can't take the androids, especially not if they're in a group, and Vegeta actually senses his power and runs off to fight him anyway. Piccolo, after fusing with Kami, becomes whole, doubling his already considerable power. This new power lets him gain the upper hand against 17 (making up for the tiny, near non-existent power gap with his skill) and is too much for Imperfect Cell. However, after Cell absorbs all those humans, he comes back and crushes Piccolo AND 17 in the most one sided "fight" in the series.)

(On Piccolo's Light Grenade: ki attacks are rather inconsistent in amplification. Piccolo's Light Grenade doesn't have to be stronger than Cell in the first place, especially after Piccolo tires out and his ki starts dropping. But I gave it a similar multiplier to Goku's Super Kamehameha anyway, so Cell's strong enough to only get a little damage from it. I also assume that Cell and other characters can augment their defenses with ki, not just their attacks. So he has a HUGE "tanks-your-best-attacks-and-one-shots-you" gap on Piccolo, but isn't several times stronger than him. The same blast would've disintegrated 17.)

Birth of Perfect Cell

Cell-
--Semi-Perfect- 1,100,000,000
--Initial Perfect- 2,000,000,000

(For Cell, I just decided to make his Semi-Perfect form 17 + Imperfect Cell. I don't know why I did this but it fits nicely; he can now tank and one-shot 16, who was his equal before. He even manages to draw blood on Vegeta and budge him a little, and Trunks says that he can't be defeated with just normal Super Saiyan, but he's clearly completely outmatched in the ensuing fight. Until, of course, he absorbs 18. Suddenly his power spikes, and he starts pwning Vegeta. That requires a pretty hefty gap.)

Vegeta- 20,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 1,000,000,000
--Super Saiyan Grade 2- 1,500,000,000
--Final Flash- 4,500,000,000
Trunks: 18,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 900,000,000
--Super Saiyan Grade 2- 1,350,000,000
--Super Saiyan Grade 3- 2,250,000,000

(Having gone into the ROSAT, Trunks and Vegeta come out ultra strong. As mentioned above, SS Vegeta < Semi-Perfect Cell < Grade II Vegeta is stated. But Perfect Cell tooled him. Trunks is stated to be just a bit below Vegeta. This is until he uses Grade III, which increases him so much that he goes from being the weakest person there to the strongest. However, Cell, a more intelligent fighter than Trunks, is able to take advantage of the two obvious disadvantages of the form: it doesn't increase speed and it drains energy rapidly.)

Broly: The Legendary Super Saiyan

Goku- 60,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 3,000,000,000
Vegeta- 44,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 2,200,000,000
Trunks- 40,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 2,000,000,000
Gohan- 36,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 1,800,000,000
Piccolo- 1,600,000,000

(Our heroes are not quite at their Cell Games levels, fitting what the Daizenshuu said about this movie's placement in the timeline. Gohan seems unusually weak here, being fodder while Goku and Vegeta get the spotlight, when in the main series he had already surpassed Goku. I guess you can say he just surpassed Goku later in the ROSAT?.)

Broly- 40,000,000
-Legendary Super Saiyan- 5,000,000,000

(Broly is strong enough to stomp the Z-fighters. No more, no less.)

Cell Games

Gohan- 90,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 4,500,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 9,000,000,000
---Injured- 6,000,000,000
----Final Super Kamehameha- 14,000,000,000
Goku- 68,000,000
--50% Power- 1,800,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 3,600,000,000
---Instant Super Kamehameha- 8,000,000,000
--Post-Super Kamehameha- 1,440,000,000
Vegeta- 50,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 2,500,000,000
Trunks- 46,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 2,300,000,000
Piccolo- 1,900,000,000

(After the ROSAT training, the FPSS form has been decided to be the best form, so everyone adopts it. Goku's 50% power is thought of as very impressive, but Vegeta's still confident that he's stronger than this Goku, and will be the one to beat Cell. Imagine his surprise when Goku reveals his REAL power. At this point Goku can fight evenly with Cell due to his superior skills, and would've won with a certain inventive technique had Cell not regenerated, but it's pretty clear Goku isn't quite Cell's equal. But even he is stated to be inferior to Gohan, by both Cell and himself. Trunks and Vegeta are both around the level it would take to fight evenly with a Cell Junior, and strong enough to think that they'd beat the Cell that tooled them earlier, while Piccolo has also gotten much stronger due to the ROSAT, even if all he can really do is stand up against the Juniors. And of course, Gohan's SS2 form pwns Cell.)

Perfect Cell-
--Against Goku- 4,000,000,000
--Full Power- 6,000,000,000
--Super Perfect-- 8,000,000,000
---Solar Kamehameha- 18,000,000,000
Cell Juniors- 2,500,000,000
--Cell Junior that the humans actually hit in filler: 600,000

(I like to think that Cell's forms are based on the Super Saiyan ones, like some other users here. The power he used against Goku is SS1, his "full power" is Grade II, his buff state is Grade III, and his Super Perfect state is SS2. While he is superior to any Super Saiyan at full power, Gohan is able to kick his ass effortlessly as an SS2, even if Cell can still at least budge Gohan. That is until Cell comes back SUPER PERFECT. He's strong enough to go toe to toe with Gohan and inflict heavy damage immediately, but is taken out in the ensuing beam-o-war thanks to last minute aid from Vegeta. The Juniors are simply as strong as Vegeta, as he was stated by Cell to be fighting evenly with one.)

Bojack Escapes

Gohan- 90,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 4,500,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 9,000,000,000
Vegeta- 50,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 2,500,000,000
Trunks- 46,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 2,300,000,000
Piccolo- 2,000,000,000

(Piccolo's gotten a teeny bit stronger, as he was still training well into the Buu Saga. Everyone else has been neglecting their training.)

Bojack- 3,100,000,000
--Super Bojack- 6,200,000,000
Bido- 3,000,000,000
Zangya- 2,500,000,000
Bujin- 2,300,000,000
Kogu- 400,000,000
--Super Kogu- 800,000,000

(Bojack's gang seems to be around Cell Junior level. Kogu is weak compared to the other three members (strange, as he's the only one with the super form) as he is effortlessly killed in one punch by Trunks. Bido looks to be the strongest because he managed to KO Vegeta. Bojack's gang is also rather good at team work, given their performance against Gohan. In his normal form, Bojack is able to effortlessly demolish Vegeta, but is forced to go super when Gohan arrives, ater which he dominates. When Gohan goes SS2, Bojack is pretty much immediately squashed.)

Broly: Second Coming

Gohan- 70,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 3,500,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 7,000,000,000
Trunks- 20,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 500,000,000
Goten- 18,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 450,000,000

(Buu Saga levels. No biggy here.)

Broly- 68,800,000
-Super Saiyan- 3,440,000,000
-Legendary Super Saiyan- 8,600,000,000

(Having gotten a zenkai since Movie 8, Broly demolishes the kids in his regular Super Saiyan form, but needs to go LSS when Gohan shows up. And while he does beat Gohan, it's nowhere near as completely one sided as his massacre of the cast in Movie 8 was. He actually manages to hurt Broly and break his hold, not to mention leave bruises on him and kick him into lava.)

BUU SAGA

Tournament

Goku- 102,500,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 5,125,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 10,250,000,000
--Super Saiyan 3- 41,000,000,000
Vegeta- 86,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 4,300,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 8,600,000,000
Gohan- 70,000,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 3,500,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 7,000,000,000
Eastern Supreme Kai- 3,200,000,000
Piccolo- 2,450,000,000
Trunks- 20,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 500,000,000
Goten- 18,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 450,000,000
Kibito- 65,000,000

(Goku and Vegeta improved significantly, but Gohan slacked off. Vegeta seemed to heavily imply that he was still not on Cell Games Gohan's level- he considers surpassing that level to be an incredibly impressive feat and Goku apparently has a huge gap over him, even though Piccolo was barley able to tell the difference between Goku's ki and Cell Games Gohan's. Even when he did tell the difference he described it as "no, strong even...". Speaking of Piccolo, he also got stronger due to training, raising himself to Cell Junior level. I left that tiny little gap unfilled because it just fits better with Super Buu's absorbptions later. It means him + Goten + Trunks = 4,000,000,000 flat.)

(Trunks and Goten are ridiculously powerful for their age, and make 18 crap her pants with a blast at the tournament. They're mostly where they are for the convenience of the fusion multiplier. Kibito was stated to be slightly weaker than base Gohan in the Daizenshuu, so he is here. Piccolo says that Kaioshin is worlds above him in power, and the Daizenshuu confirmed this when it said that he possesses power "far superior to the Super Namek Piccolo". On top of that, he seems to be grouped in the same "tier" as SS1 Gohan when Buu arrives, but he's still not quite up to par with any of the Super Saiyans.)

Krillin- 570,000
Tien- 360,000
Chaozu- 120,000
Yamcha- 95,000

(This is generally where I see the humans by the end of the series. Krillin's boost from the elder didn't just stop- after all, he kept getting several times stronger on Namek. The same continued on Earth, and the android arc training further accelerated his growth. With such a large head start none of the others could hope to compete. Tien comes the closest. After the Kai training, I'd say he increased his power to maybe 50,000. After his android training, I'd place him at 100,000, and after his Buu Saga training (for seven straight years), he's at 260,000. Trash compared to even Krillin, but still one of the strongest beings in the universe. Chiatozu was exactly 1/3 of Tien in the Saiyan Saga, and they did the same training, so the gap wouldn't change. Yamcha only did the Kai and android training, and neglected even trying to train after that. However I still think he got at least a little stronger naturally, otherwise he'd only be 80,000 here.)

Gotenks (pre-ROSAT)- 180,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 9,000,000,000

(Goes by the above fusion formula. Gotenks was stated to be inferior to Vegeta before he went into the ROSAT in the Daizenshuu, and he does nothing to prove otherwise here, so that's where I have him.)

Babidi's Henchmen

Dabura- 7,500,000,000
Yakon- 130,000,000
Mystery Level 2 Fighter- 15,000,000
Pui Pui- 10,000,000
Yamu- 36
Spovovitch- 31

(Pretty simple. Gohan was stated to be a SS2 vs Dabura in the Daizenshuu, and Dabura had a very slight lead on him, in part due to Gohan's rustiness and Dabura's magic. Yakon is strong enough to force Goku to transform, but not much else. Pui Pui is one of the strongest fighters in the universe, but... that means very little at this point, as base Vegeta still tools him. The Mystery Level 2 Fighter was apparently way stronger than Pui Pui, but not enough to completely destroy him like Vegeta did, while Yakon is considered severe overkill for a Pui Pui stomper).

The Many Forms Of Buu

Vegetto- 20,250,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 1,012,500,000,000
Ultimate Gohan- 160,000,000,000
Gotenks (post-ROSAT)- 300,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 15,000,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 30,000,000,000
--Super Saiyan 3- 120,000,000,000
Goku- 102,500,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 5,125,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 10,250,000,000
--Super Saiyan 3- 41,000,000,000
Vegeta- 100,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 5,000,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 10,000,000,000
---Suicide Attack- 40,000,000,000
Kibito Kai- 9,600,000,000
Trunks (post-ROSAT)- 16,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 800,000,000
Goten (post-ROSAT)- 15,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 750,000,000

(Gotenks improves significantly in the ROSAT. His normal Super Saiyan is said to surpass Fat Buu, and in Super Saiyan 3 he even manages to have the upper hand against Super Buu. Too bad he's an idiot times an idiot. Gohan is much stronger than both him and Super Buu, that much is obvious. Majin Vegeta and Goku were stated to have "practically no difference" in power. Despite his significant strength, Goku is by his own admission completely outmatched by Super Buu, and craps his pants at the thought of facing the monster.)

Super Buu- 100,000,000 (Slightly Restrained Pure Buu + South Kaioshin)
--Buuccolo/Super Duper Buu- 104,000,000,000 (Slightly Restrained Pure Buu + South Kaioshin + Piccolo + Trunks + Goten)
--Buuoshin/Mega Buu- 110,000,000,000 (Pure Buu + South Kaioshin)
--Buutenks/Ultra Buu- 222,050,000,000 (Slightly Restrained Pure Buu + South Kaioshin + Gotenks + Piccolo)
--Buuhan/Ultimate Buu- 264,000,000,000 (Slightly Restrained Pure Buu + South Kaioshin + Gohan + Piccolo + Trunks + Goten)
Kid/Pure Buu- 45,000,000,000
Fat Buu- 13,000,000,000 (docile, true power locked)
--Evil Buu- 50,000,000,000 (Unrestrained Pure Buu + Minor Evil Kaioshin Power)
--Good Buu- 32,000,000,000 (Dai Kaioshin + Sealed South Kaioshin Power)

(Long one coming up. The first form of Buu that our heroes encounter is his fat, childish form. In this form, he demolishes Majin Vegeta, but he is still clearly out of his league dealing with any SS3 tier fighter. After Satan gets shot, he splits into Good Buu and Evil Buu. This is where some people might have disagreements with me.)

(I think both Good and Evil Buu are significantly stronger than Fat. Let me explain. It was said that they both took portions of Fat's power, and that's true. But not portions of the power he could actually use. Indeed, the only difference between Super and Fat, power wise, is that Super could actually USE the power that was sealed away by the Dai Kaioshin's influence. When he splits, both Buus take portions of his power. Simple math would determine that Evil Buu takes Kid Buu's power. The fact that he's in a different form than Kid Buu though indicates they're different beings, even though Evil was explicitly stated to be pure evil and is Super - Good, just like Kid Buu. So I figure Evil actually has some minor evil South Kaioshin power with him. This is somewhat supported by Evil Buu actually doing better against his Good counterpart than Kid does later. Good Buu actually managed to hit Kid Buu twice, placing him in the Super Saiyan 3 tier, while he couldn't lay a finger on Evil Buu.)

(Speaking of Evil Buu, Super Buu is obviously significantly stronger than Kid or Fat, as stated by Goku. He's basically Kid Buu allowed to use MOST of the South Kaioshin's power and intelligence, with the fully unrestrained version being Buff Buu, who's just a sliver stronger than Super, as Goku had to wonder whether his ki was even rising. Super can put up a good fight against Gotenks but is obliterated when Gotenks starts fighting seriously, only being saved by his regeneration. He also gets dominated by Gohan. But when he starts putting his plan to absorb people into action, he dominates Gohan. His absorbptions are simple: just his battle power + the absorbption's battle power.)

(Kid Buu, the original monster, is stronger than Goku but significantly weaker than Super Buu. I believe that when he absorbed the South Kaioshin and became Buff Buu (45 + 65 = 110) and then absorbed Dai Kaioshin, Dai Kaioshin locked away the South Kaioshin's power and subtracted his own battle power from Buu's, resulting in Fat Buu (45 - 32 = 13).

Southern Supreme Kai- 65,000,000,000
Grand Supreme Kai- 32,000,000,000
Western Supreme Kai- 7,000,000,00
Northern Supreme Kai- 5,000,000,000
Eastern Supreme Kai- 3,200,000,000
Old Kai- 30,000,000

(mostly based on Buu's levels, and the implications East made about South when he said that Buu "somehow" absorbed him.)

Fusion Reborn

Gogeta- 2,000,000,000
-Super Saiyan- 100,000,000,000
Goku- 102,500,000
--Super Saiyan Full Power- 5,125,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 10,250,000,000
--Super Saiyan 3- 41,000,000,000
Vegeta- 100,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 5,000,000,000
--Super Saiyan 2- 10,000,000,000
Gotenks- 180,000,000
--Super Saiyan- 9,000,000,000
Great Saiyaman- 70,000,000

(Another alternate universe. This time, Goku killed Fat Buu immediately rather than relying on Gotenks, who never got to train in the ROSAT. Everyone is at the level they were when Fat Buu was around.)

Janemba- 26,000,000,000
-Super Janemba (suppressed)- 52,000,000,000
--Full Power- 65,000,000,000
--Non- ki powers- High level reality warper. Probably should've taken advantage of that.

(Goku's Super Saiyan 3 is severe overkill against normal Janemba, but Super Janemba kicks his ass while suppressed. Doesn't help him against Gogeta, though. Probably should've used some of those high level reality warping powers, like making a clone of Gogeta, or making a portal so Gogeta punches himself, or carving through Gogeta without touching him, or sealing him in a pocket dimension.)

[Mjb1985]

Nice list man. One question regarding the official levels, is Nappa more durable than Cell?

[RandomGuy96]

Thank you.

I don't know. Probably. Regenerating characters are made unusually fragile in-story so you can actually see their regeneration. Not to mention, what you can and can't survive at a certain power level is very inconsistent anyway. See: 50% Freeza vs Goku, 50% Freeza vs Piccolo, Kid Buu vs SS2 Vegeta, Kaio-Ken x4 Kamehameha vs Vegeta, Super Kamehameha vs Piccolo's face, et cetera. In each of these cases, characters survived attacks that were way stronger than them. So Nappa's official number works fine for me.

[Mjb1985]

No problem. Yea I usually run into the same problems as well. There is a lot of inconsistency in the manga. Here is my thinking process on some of them.

Kkx4 Goku Kamehameha vs Vegeta

First off I like to think that Kkx3 Goku has weakened to a point in which he is around Vegeta's level considering how shot his body was at this point. Many people generally give Vegeta's Galick Gun the edge but I don't think it's absolutely necessary. I would probably be ok with a slight edge though. So Kkx3 Goku starts out around Vegeta's level more or less. Perhaps 20,000 at this point and maybe Vegeta has a slight lead in amplification.

Goku's Kkx3 power starts to wane either to 18,000 or 16,000 and uses Kkx4 to bolster him up to Kkx3 levels.

Anyway that's getting a bit long winded.

In terms of Vegeta surviving that I don't see much of an issue considering Gohan survived Buu's Kamehameha in similar fashion. Kaioshin did save him but in terms of being taken for a ride on a blast.
