Can Mr Buu be the strongest warrior ever? (Spoilers)

Post by Berserker1921 » Mon Aug 24, 2015 3:14 am

After seeing episode seven of dragon ball super. We see the heroes fight Beerus like in well BoG but one big thing came to mind. Buu took hits and kept on coming. This was a character that was the main villain or one of the main villains of the Buu saga (I said this cause his evil side or original self was technically the main villain). But he was taking hits like a pro against Beerus. Yes. You can argue that Beerus was using 1/10000 of 1% of his power. However he kept coming back up never the less. I mean Ultimate Gohan for KO'ed with one hit from Beerus when he swung Buu at gohan. For goodness sakes Buu was the real hero of this episode. I mean he got supposely blow up by Beerus, smacked around, and then swing like a whip to knock out gohan.

Where I am getting at is if Buu did all this damage soaking without training ever. If he trained could he have really beaten anyone in the series so far?

Buu just didn't know when to quit.

While this is Dragon Ball, so who knows, I don't think Boo can get stronger by conventional means.

I think since Boo was the last previous villain that's why they made him get his ass whipped the most

Buu has absurd regeneration. That's why he kept coming back, not because of his strength.

It's pretty well established that Buu has the greatest endurance out of everyone due to his regeneration. Interestingly, he's never actually shown using it against Beerus.
"Dragon Ball once became a thing of the past to me, but after that, I got angry about the live action movie, re-wrote an entire movie script, and now I'm complaining about the quality of the new TV anime. It seems Dragon Ball has grown on me so much that I can't leave it alone." - Akira Toriyama on Dragon Ball Super

Give the man- err, pink bubblegum monster thing his credit. He showed some serious conviction by coming back over and over again.

Its easy when you have his regeneration and his personality (which is basically the same as a kid having a tantrum).

Did the wish of people of Earth forgeting about boo also include all of the Z fighters? Well theoretically why not, but were they not remmebered who it is later?

I mean seriously, they see Majin Boo - Until recently the very STRONGEST being in their known universe, destroyer of worlds, being so powerful that he could oblirate all of the Z fighters not counting Goku, Vegeta and Gohan in splitsecond, not being able to even land a punch on Beerus. And NO ONE coments on that, not only that they even decide it's a good idea to charge in. They wouldn't dare to attack Boo, why would they dare to attack being superior to him?

Sure they diodn't have that much choice, considering Beerus said he will destroy earth, but they didn't seem too scared while at it...

More on topic, of course Buu has been coming back, even if his opponent is Beerus, Buu is not a being like any other in the universe, he is easy to damage, but almost impossible to kill - reason for it is pretty obvious to me, knowing he can't be killed, he just does not bother using his ki to defend himself. He also seems not to be able to use as much Ki at once as the strongest Sayans do, but his Ki recharging ability is completely incredible, allowing to easily make enemy's Ki to fall below his own power. He can also greatly recover his strength in as few as several seconds of sleep.

Considering how freakishly powerful all the Buus were, it is a plausible theory that Mr. Buu does in fact possess the innate ability to grow stronger as time progresses. It honestly wouldn't surprise me if even a mild exposure to the lightest of training regimens turned out to be an exceptionally rewarding experience for him. That said, I highly doubt within him exists some mystical gift that allows him to magically multiply his strength while sitting around Hercule's pad eating all day.

Another debatable speculation is that during the time Mr. Buu was absorbed by his leaner counterpart, he regained some of the power he initially lost when he outwardly expelled the evil within. This could be supported by how well he performed against Kid Buu in comparison to the humiliating beat down he received from Gray Buu.

In any case, Base Gotenks never had anything on any of the Buus anyway, so it's not surprising he was outshined by Hercule's pink pal.

As for Gohan getting knocked out, Beerus probably exerted himself a tad bit more to get the job done.

Do you think kid Buu would have stood a better chance? I mean if fat Buu had that mentality but was a good guy?

Whether it's Mr. Buu, Kid Buu, Buutenks, or even Buuhan, the outcome wouldn't change one bit. Although by Buu arc standards, the gap between Buuhan and Mr. Buu was substantial, in the eyes of beings like Beerus and Frieza, the difference would be a trivial matter that would hardly even be noticeable.

Of course he can, but that'd mean he'd impede on Goku and Vegeta. So Boo now doesn't really care about fighting no more, when before he was really excited to fight the likes of Goku and Gotenks.

Was that because he was evil of well had more of that aggressive side in him?

No he really thought fighting was fun. So much so he'd stop killing for a bit. He adored a good fight so much he'd wait for Gotenks. Now he stopped caring about fighting, cause that'd mean he'd fit the stat trinity of importance. We can't have that.

Highly doubt it. The best Majin Boo can do is copy the techniques of other people. The only reason Majin Boo can endure as much as he can is because of his insane regeneration.

Quite frankly, I'm not sure why people are so shocked that Buu outperformed Base Gotenks. Unless the latter transformed, he was never anything special to begin with.

I honestly took the whole scene with a grain of salt. I mean, seeing as how Android 18 and Tien were all still standing after their brief scuffle, it's a very reasonable notion that the pudding craving destroyer simply had enough by the time Gohan jumped in.

What about kid Buu? He not only had insane regeneration. But he seemed to have unlimited stamina. Especially in his fight against Goku, Vegeta, and buu.

You honestly think that Buuhan or kid Buu wouldn't try to absorb Beerus?

Buu barely absorbed Vegetto, I doubt he has any chance of pulling it off against Beerus. Even if we put him in the best possible scenario and assume whatever little piece of himself he decides to use actually does engulf Beerus, he'd likely be unable to store such a power away into one of his pods. The destroyer would just bolt right out of the vile menace's insides, and the beat down would resume as though nothing had happened.

This is of course, assuming that Buu could even trap Beerus to begin with.

Realistically speaking, the latter would simply blast the slimy substance away, or stand around unfazed even if it did land on him.
