Gohan is really impatient and really doesn't think things through here does he. Also his SSJ hair style keeps changing like crazy.

All the bullshit of the last pages could have been avoided if Dabura had simply said to Gohan exactly what he said in this page instead of fighting.

This version of Gohan is much more badass than the present one for sure.

Gohan going into this thin alone is more stupid and out of character then him trying to beg the androids for help or going to get Trunks. No way can Dabura hold back so much power to the point Gohan thinks he has a chance.

I still would have gone with the enemy of my enemy storyline with Gohan and Trunks begging the Androids for help and Dabura having too fight all 4 of them. At least with 4 targets Dabura would have a harder time then with just Gohan and less BS.

Gohan begging for the Androids for help would've been completely out of character. Even asking Trunks (who's still probably just a kid at this point) to help him fight an enemy he has know clue about how dangerous they really could be is even more idiotic. Gohan would rather risk his own life before begging the murders of his friends and mass majority of the human race for help or put Trunks' life at risk before knowing what he's really up against.

Another thing that doesn't make sense is Kaioshin not being there.

Kaioshin could still show up. It's possible Kaioshin doesn't believe there is enough power left on Earth to revive Boo. Babidi seams to think so though.

I really like how Gohan is drawn in certain panels here. He looks badass. It's a shame he isn't aware he has absolutely no chance and is about to die. Tragic... :cry:

Maybe not beg the Androids but between the Anime and the Manga we saw Gohan take Trunks to 2 out of 3 battles against the Androids, the one time Gohan didn't take Trunks was when he was sure he could beat the Androids.

Gohan's performance just gets more and more bullshitty. Present Gohan didn't even dodge Dabra's spit, and he knew what it was capable of.

@Rereboy it wouldn't be bullshit at all for Babidi to come at a different time, because DBM allows for different decisions to be made.

Future Gohan is a total badass, it's not like logic matters as long as you like a character :roll:

Seriously I don't see why people think Future Gohan is a badass.

It probably as something to with the fact that he'll fight to the bitter end no matter what. The dude is pretty ballsy.
Vegeta: "Funny... I seem to recall Kakarot being fed the same information right before he transformed; the distinct look on your faces when he went Super Saiyan didn't exactly inspire confidence. One does not predict or calculate power like ours."

So would pretty much all the heroes. Same with Bardock. Do people like them because they fight people stronger then them and die? Perhaps my definition of badass is different.

Besides everyone knows the King of Badassedry.

Kaioshin could still show up. It's possible Kaioshin doesn't believe there is enough power left on Earth to revive Boo. Babidi seams to think so though.
If Kaioshin showed up, the story would break. Gohan would be like "Hey Mr. King of Gods, can you help me with this one thing?" and then Kaioshin would say "Yeah sure bro" and then dismissively one-shot 17 and 18 by looking at them. Literally. Invisible eye beams FTW.
Seriously I don't see why people think Future Gohan is a badass.
Neither do I. Though I think Anime Gohan is what a lot of people think of when they say that, because he was actually able to beat one android at a time, it's only in a group when they were too much for him.

He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.
It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke

Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

Possibly. Even though he is no match for either of them and even at less than half power they can destroy him in reality.

Yeah, I don't think Future Gohan is very badass either. I think he's popular because he's serious unlike present Gohan, and because of his dark backstory.

It might also be because a lot of people (including myself) prefer the anime version of that special to the manga version of the events.
