Fanmanga - DB Multiverse

Actually, I'm kind of wondering if the point was that sheer power just can't defeat Buu, and Vegetto had to use the kiai 'technique' to kill him.

[Fionordequester]

If that was the case, Salagir didn't communicate that very well, nor does that really make a lot of sense when even Goku was able to kill Kid Buu without such a thing.

...which doesn't make sense, since Buu fears for his life multiple times and nearly dies multiple times (unless the characters were all stupid and Buu was just going along with it for the lulz) and Pure Buu was actually beating Mr. Buu to death.

I still don't get this technique. Wouldn't a Kiai just push Buu? Why does Vegetto just automatically know this after he's born? And most importantly, why does it seemingly allow a fighter to hit waaaaaaaaaaay out of their weight class?

I wonder how Satan will win those Budokais now that mister Boo is dead.

With Gohan or someone else. Hercule is still Hercule> most of the fighters anyway.

No, the Kiai technique is just the most effective method. Buu can regenerate even from ashes and the way this technique works nothing is left. All other attacks would have to compensate in exceeding power to make sure nothing would be left. Vegetto could have killed Buu any way he wanted to, but why not use the most effective thing?

I have a feeling that this is what Salagir believes. Not only because of this special, but also because of this:

He did the same thing in the manga:

Its easy to understand it... That kind of technique has a high degree of effectiveness in disintegrating Buu's body into less than ash and thus killing him. However, that's not the only thing that can kill him as proven by the fact that Kid Buu was killed by the Genki Dama.

Thus, Buu can be killed in a great number of ways, but without the effectiveness of that Kiai technique, an attack must have such power that it completely overwhelms Buu's power and body, which is pretty hard to do unless Buu's opponent is much stronger than he is.

Vegetto could have destroyed Gohan-Buu or Kid Buu in a great number of ways since he was much stronger than either of them, but he just chose the most effective method of killing him when he went for the kill, which shows us just how serious he was about killing him.

I have a feeling that this is what Salagir believes. Not only because of this special, but also because of this:

SSJ2 Bra is weaker than Zen Buu since Zen Buu saw Vegetto's SSJ3 and stated that he could defeat him.

Therefore, Bra is only dangerous to him thanks to that technique and its effectiveness in destroying Buu's body. That is why he was surprised and why he stated that she had the means to destroy him (if he wasn't careful, of course).

If she didn't have that technique, she wouldn't be a possible threat to Zen Buu since she is weaker than Zen Buu, and thus she wouldn't be able to launch another kind of attack capable of overwhelming Zen Buu.

No he is alive can't you see that spec in the middle of the panel or is that a piece of dirt.

[rereboy]

He's dead.

You know, I just noticed something. Is it just me, or is Multiverse really inefficient in how large it's panels are in order to display action? Because with that DBZ Manga scan that someone posted, Mr. Toriyama actually packed way more on just one page than Multiverse usually does, in which they only have something like 4-5 panels per page...

Has anyone noticed this? Looking at it now, it's actually shocking just how much Mr. Toriyama managed to pack into just one page, isn't it?

It's 8 panels, that's not even that much in comparison to many pages. While DBM indeed tends to give us less panels per page, I believe Toriyama started pushing many panels per pages later in the series, perhaps by wanting to finish DB quicker. Not saying that there weren't many panels in some pages in earlier arcs of DB, just less frequent. (And I may be talking out of my ass, it's just how I remember it.)

Nope. Its quite the opposite actually. DBM tries to tell everything we need to know in as few panels as possible while trying to not waste many pages of the main story (the specials exist only to buy time for the main story). This is so because its a free fan manga. The authors don't get paid and they don't have that much time to work on it and to draw it. In contrast, the original Dragon Ball manga had a lot more freedom and could easily include more character reactions and more dramatic a big panels, and it did.

Wow, this page looks really well drawn. The best one so far

Just asking but could't the dragonballs separate Goku and Vegeta

Don't read this if you don't want spoilers from the novel.

Oh okay. Makes sense. OR they can do(I know this is bullshit and is just for LOL so don't take it seriously)..give Bulma and Chi Chi the potara from Supreme Kai and give Goten and Trunks Vegetto's potara. One big famliy

[RandomGuy96]

I'm tempted to say that the following fusion would be "Bichi".

I thought that as well until a page showed up on the main storyline with the Kaioshins and Gohan saying that the earrings only work with the Kaioshins and that the Old Kaioshin enchanted them to work with Goku. So, I guess, no Bichi/Chulma or Trunkten

[TheGmGoken]

So he can't enhance them for the Z fighters for family sake. Psh
