Yeah, I had a hunch that it was loosely based off of an actual torture method for humour. Well, like I said, wherever SRG got it from. I knew it went further back...

Edit: Ooh, here's some on topic stuff. If there's a guy in a box, and there's no holes or doors in the box, Goku would be able to get in with Instantaneous Movement. Of course, the guy would die soon enough...

What if he was an android so Goku couldn't sense his "ki" and so know that he was trapped inside? :D

Plus, any android ever built is strong enough to break out of such a thing. a piracy website.

Dai wrote:So, I've been thinking about this one for quite a time. Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't Goku's ''Shunkan Idou (sp?)'' consist of reverting his body to pure light and travelling in that form, meaning travelling with the speed of light? I've thought about that, but it doesn't make sense. For example, in movie 8, Goku simply teleports to the Southern Galaxy, almost instantly. But wouldn't the Southern Galaxy be hundreds of light years away? Same case with places like New Namek. They would literally have to be lightyears away. And with Shunkan Idou, it would take Goku years to reach places like that. And again, another theory comes into play here.. Just where is Kaiou's place? If my memory serves me correctly, each time Goku teleports to another planet, he does it via Kaiou's place. This could mean this ''lightyear'' system doesn't work there, and he doesn't have to worry about distance if he travels from Kaiou's.

But I'm probably either over-analyzing things, and this is just a consistency error, or my theory concerning Shunkan Idou is wrong. So which is it?

I am going to fully answer this with perfection. You see Goku an't really saiyan he is um well he is a lightyan yea a lightyan and he can go threw light. See funimation made a big mistake when they said saiyan because the translater doesn't know fully Japanese in Japan the word is Baka yea Baka and that mean lightyan. For you Japan heads you think that baka mean dumbass well it doesn't the guy translate played a big joke on the world. Dumbass in Japan really is Ichi-BanBan.......Yea so thats the whole story why it is like that. No need for thanks :D

Um... actually "baka" is Japanese for fool, idiot, et cetera... basically, a generalized insult. It might mean lightyear as well... I don't know, I'm not THAT skilled in Japanese that I know astrology words...

Just to let you know S, Jakez04 is just being a silly joker. Don't pay any attention. :wink: It's just the way he is. Most of us are at the point now where we just let him say whatever "gibberish" he feels like and pretend to nod our heads. :lol:

No, I didn't mean any offence Jake, I just meant that you have a quirky sense of humor, and that you weren't being serious when you stated that explanation in your earlier post. S thought that you really meant it, so I figured he didn't know the kind of joking you usually do. Sorry if I put you out. :wink:
