Once again Vegeta loses because he didn't take his opponent seriously. He should have taken Raichi out rather than wasting his time with the Ghost Warriors.

Yeah no I doubt that. Most likely Cell Jr. got a sneak attack in and Vegeta is badly injured because God's Blade is meant to be a clean cut that goes through everything yet Vegeta's cape isn't cut in half, his wound doesn't go all the way through his armor and the cut on Pan isn't a clean one.
Prefect time for a cliffhanger and we'll see weakened Prince Vegeta against Tidar and Cell Jr next chapter
It was a pun :wink:

Oh shit, I did not see that one coming! I guess Vegeta's armor is tough enough so he didn't get completely sliced through, or did he? Hard to tell.

According to the comments on the DBM site, some are theorizing that Vegeta got his immortality wish, so that cut was just a flesh wound. Man I hope not.

I seriously doubt it. Otherwise evil Goku and the others wouldn't be so shocked.

They could be shocked that he was hurt. Remember this Vegeta is the strongest in hos universe and it's probably been a while since he was actually hurt.
Either way I expect this not to be fatal and a wake up call dor Prince Vegeta to stop playing around

Maybe they're just surprised someone managed to land a hit on Vegeta, rather than shocked in a "OMG he's dying" way.

I could see them still being shocked even if Vegeta was immortal - maybe this was the first time he's been really hurt since, and they assumed that it wasn't possible anymore - but I dunno if I'm banking on it or not.

And holy shit, good job evil Pan. :lol:

Concerning why God's Blade didn't cut Vegeta completely in half: it looks like it didn't directly hit him due to the angle of the attack, instead only slicing open his torso. You can even see a small cut in his cape where the slice cut through.

Well that's just silly. These weapons are supposed to be cutting-edge.

He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.

Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. 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.

Come on guys, cut it out with the puns. ( 8) )
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.

It's not my fault that I have a sharp wit.

(does that even fit? Ah screw it, it does to me)

I do agree though; there is a cut-off point for when it starts getting tiresome.

Anyway, either the wound isn't deep or Vegeta is dead because the way it's draw it looks like his right lung has been sliced through. And he doesn't have the excuse of non-human anatomy like Zarbon in that one special.

I thought the excuse in the last special was Krillin needed glasses.

Zarbon is dozens of times faster than Krillin or his attacks. He dodged at the last moment.
