What if it was impossible to revive the same person twice?

Post by Linnom » Tue Oct 08, 2013 9:07 pm

Hello my fellow Kanzenshuu friends, what if it was impossible to revive the same person twice using two sets of dragon balls, in my opinion this could be a good idea because death would become something more feared, I know who some parts of the story should be rewritten because of this rule, like:
Chaos could be dead forever after the Saiyajin arc without change the story so much, in the beginning Tenshinhan don't wanna be wished back because he want to stay with his friend, but Chaos will change his head saying he will live forever in his heart or something like that, in the end Tenshinhan will be revived and this could be a good opportunity to bring Lunch back to the story, she and Ten will live together.
Goku will stay dead after the Cell Games not because he want, but because he can't be wished back!
Vegeta don't need to die against Buu, Kuririn and the others Zetto senshi who died in the Saiyajin arc could be in the Kaioshin planet during the earth explosion.
With some changes we can implement this new rule without affecting much the story, don't you think? Discuss!

Wait I thought the dragonballs can't grant the same wish twice. Then again only the Earth dragonballs seem have that limitation. I'm not sure if the ones on namek have that limit.

I believe he means a person in general can't be revived twice. That means disregarding different Dragon Balls and all the other ways they avoid this 'no double wish' rule.

Once you're dead, you're dead.

Would't that be pretty much the same story? I mean after being wished back once. The story goes the same. So instead of Krillin getting the device yamcha gets it(Implying that Yamcha gets the kiss from 18). Tien does he shit. Goku stays dead but Elder Kai gives him his life. So..would't pretty much everything be the same?

I don't think so, Vegeta, Yamcha, Tenshinhan, Mutenroshi and Piccolo won't come back to life after the battle against boo.

It would make things more serious as characters would have to be more careful next time. In the Buu saga, only Goku, Gohan, Goten and Trunks will be alive.
