As Villains go how can they top a God of Destruction?
As Villains go how can they top a God of Destruction?
Going by all the main villains throughout Dragon Ball you had
Piccolo - A Demon King who really was just a regular evil alien.
Vegeta - The strongest alien of his race that lived for fighting.
Frieza - The strongest alien in the universe (till later proven otherwise).
Cell - A Biological Android made up of some of the best fighters in the universe.
Buu - A magical demon Genie.
And now BoG introduces a God, specifically a God of Destruction. It all seems sorta logical and is a nice progression on the level of threats but how do you top that?
They've done Aliens, Androids, Demons, Magical entities, Gods. What could they possibly do to top that?

More robots and cyborgs. However, they MUST be built by a crazy old man alone with limited resources, otherwise they won't be powerful enough.
And seriously, why does Beers keep getting categorized with King Piccolo and the rest? He's a movie character.

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.

If they ever make more movies, only thing that can top Bills is Other Gods of Destruction (from other 11 universes).
And all of that can be toped by God that created every universe and other gods...

Aliens, Artificial Humans, Demons, Hakaishin, Makaio, and Makaioshin from other universes.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.
Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

EXISTENCE ITSELF.

Let's not forget, there's also this fertile Makaio and Makaioshin stuff they bring up in one of the guidebooks and Online (or at least speculated to be, I think?) that they could bring up, though that would still be in the 'Gods' territory. Honestly though? I have no problem with WHAT a villain they bring in is, so long as the story around him or her is interesting, as is the plot around them. Hell, they can throw out a new human villain that's amazingly strong and I'm fine with it.

Re: As Villains go how can they top a God of Destruction?
Galactus. It's only a matter of time
But seriously, probably an invincible, demonic entity with the ability to drain the powers of his enemies and leave them powerless until someone's able to effectively stun him--which would help them regain their powers. Attacks powered by Chi would have no effect on him, so they'd have to find another way to defeat him.

Well Buu is already similar to that.Polyphase Avatron wrote:A strong ki user who is also a wizard.
Going from a God to a Wizard would be a step down aswell.
God level is pretty much as high as you can get. As someone else said the God of the multiverse and all Gods would be a logical step up but it'd be kinda silly if he just happened to be a villain that had fighting ability. You can expect that from a God of Destruction but a God of all Gods seems....I dunno.
As for those who mentioned Demons, maybe it has already been done before though with Dabura who was supposed to be the strongest in the demon realm.
I think probably the way to go would be like how Vegeta was a very powerful alien and then Frieza was the most powerful alien, Bills was a powerful God of Destruction and the next villain could be the most powerful God of Destruction.

Buu was a magical being that was also a ki user, I mean maybe someone who is not only stronger than Buu but makes Babidi look like a novice in magic.Bullza wrote:Well Buu is already similar to that.Polyphase Avatron wrote:A strong ki user who is also a wizard.

If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are!

Re: As Villains go how can they top a God of Destruction?
Honestly I didnt think they could come up with anything past the "Shadow Dragons"... I mean, the freaking Dragon Balls turning evil.. there are very few things that could come after that.
The only difference that might be there is that the not so nice z fighters wont be afraid to "cut loose" or restrict themselves.. So SSJ "Justice Lords" Vegeta just might crack the planet with his fist.
How would that work exactly? Most of the Z fighters were already "bad" at some point already.Gonstead wrote:Justice Lords versions of the Z-Warriors ^_^

Re: As Villains go how can they top a God of Destruction?
A lot of people, including myself, incorporate him into the manga's continuity. That's why he's categorized with Piccolo. He's also the first "villain" not be beaten AT ALL. He's ridiculously strong in comparison to the main cast, and he has a very likable character. I honestly prefer him to every villain excluding Vegeta, though I almost don't count him since he's a dynamic character.RandomGuy96 wrote:And seriously, why does Beers keep getting categorized with King Piccolo and the rest?

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."

Re: As Villains go how can they top a God of Destruction?
I don't think it would be impossible to make a character stronger then the Shadow Dragons. Gero made Cyborgs stronger then Freeza who can destroy a large Planet and Doctor Myuu was able to make a Machine Mutant stronger then Kid Buu (I guess Kid Buu since Goku never stated which Buu he was talking about. If he was stronger then Super Buu 3/Buuhan then he would gone SSj3 against General Rildo). If we go by power scaling in GT then Super Bebi Vegeta is stronger then Birus. Goku stated that Bebi's ki was greater then anything that he has seen.

Re: Topping Beers
Long answer - A reality-warper with a wider array of what he or she can do and a high enough level of intelligence where he or she can exchange regular dialogue with the cast.
Short answer - A smarter version of Janemba (not the same origin though) with a bigger variety / crazier number of reality-warping powers.
