SSJ2 teen Gohan (Cell saga) vs Broly (movie 10)?

Post by MadPrimate » Wed Jun 26, 2013 2:25 pm

I've been arguing with people over the outcome of that fight. I Believe Gohan would win.

All Broly did in his previous movie was smack the Z fighters around the map. Meanwhile on Gohan's side, he 1-hit 7 Cell jr (who were equal or if not stronger than Cell saga Vegeta) without sweat. I don't think Broly got that much zenkai in movie 10, he didn't seem much stronger at all. It is true that Broly kicked SSJ2 Gohan's butt in that movie, but that Gohan was way weaker since he hasn't trained in 7 years.

This is my opinion, what do you guys think?

Gohan would loose IMO. During his fight with Broli in M10, Gohan never considered getting angry as an option to defeat him. His only hope was sending him to the lava.

This is actually Super Saiyan 2 Kid Gohan, right?

If so, I think he'd pummel Broly.

This is better suited to the versus thread.

Anyway, Broly had trouble with a Gohan called "pathetic" by Vegeta, who was implied to be weaker than Cell Games Gohan. Broly did nothing to impress me here, I don't think he's all that strong at all. SS2 Goku also beat him in Movie 11, and he wasn't that much stronger than Cell Games Gohan.

That said, Gohan is one of the most unskilled fighters in the series, and I don't think he has a large enough power advantage on Broly to swat him like a bug. So I think he finds a way to lose.

Super Perfect Cell or Vegeta would wreck Broly's shit, though.

Gohan would win. Broly had trouble keeping a weaker Gohan down so I can only imagine what Gohan at full power could do.

Paikuhan probably didn't even do anything. He is nowhere near SSJ2 Goku so I don't see how he would be much help.

Or, maybe there was a reason that both Goku & Paikuhan were sent to Broli.

Well I don't think it's ever mentioned in the movie that Gohan stopped training, and he even appeared to be in a rage when he transforms. So I can't see the outcome being any different.

The movie takes place in the Boo arc time-frame, so this Gohan is the one from Boo arc.

He was also angry when trying to destroy Boo's Ball, but the problem was that he couldn't get stronger through his rage. Same here, I guess.

Judging by the producer's statement about Broly being set-up as the strongest Saiyan in the movies and the fact, that Movie 10 was released after SSJ2 Kid Gohan appeared even in the anime, I would say it's safe to say Broly has this, power-wise.
Gohan can probably use his small size to dodge Broly a lot and perhaps use his better skills and most importantly, rage boosts, to close and surpass their gap.
So I would say the fight could go either way.
EDIT:Pikkon's Burning Shoot can't be that strong, since the Thunder Flash is stated to be his secret, ultimate weapon in the Daizenshuu 7.

Which is stupid and most likely wrong, as the Burning Shot was stated to be like the kaio-ken while the Thunder Flash failed to one hit kill someone way weaker than him.

Toriyama has stated that the movies are of a different dimension from the original story, so a lot of what takes place isn't entirely applicable to it. I don't remember the Tenkaichi Budokai being mentioned either, yet Gohan is shown with his training gi on.

The movie was produced before that scene occurred in the manga and before it was established he had an issue with his rage-boost.

His Burning Shoot is basically the west Kai equivalent of Kaioken IMO. Broly doesn't start out strongest, his Omega Blaster is what makes him a threat IMO.

Thunder Flash could easily be a 3x increase where Burning Shoot is a 2x increase. Dead bodies are also a lot more durable. It's hard to die twice in this series.

More than that. In this filler, they couldn't die again. One of the Kaio's says that after the short fast guy gets shoved into the ground.

I disagree. There is no evidence to support that. Why would Kaio (who knows Goku's, Paikuhan's, and Broli's true power) send both of them if it wasn't necessary?

We see do see Videl flying & having short hair. And there is also no reason to assume that M10 Gohan is different from Boo arc Gohan.

Still, Gohan was never shown having control of his rage, unless something very bad was to happen.
