Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
During the 10 days before the Cell Games, she asks Gokuu and Gohan during their picnic, "Do you really have to be Super Saiyan while we eat?" I doubt she'd go for all the time knowing about and mentioning "Super Saiyan", without actually knowing what it meant. She's not dumb or as single-minded as you think.

Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
I never thought she was dumb but you can't say she's much of a cut above Goku in the intelligence department. I mean she walked up to a genocide freak like Super Boo who is obviously bigger and stronger than she is and slapped him across the face, excepting him to feel mercy and guilt for doing what he does.Piccolo Daimao wrote:During the 10 days before the Cell Games, she asks Gokuu and Gohan during their picnic, "Do you really have to be Super Saiyan while we eat?"

Plus why didn't Piccolo stretch his arm out to save Chi-Chi?

She didn't expect him to feel mercy or guilt. She just couldn't stand being around her son's killer and not do anything.DBZAOTA482 wrote:I never thought she was dumb but you can't say she's much of a cut above Goku in the intelligence department.

She has no feats.

I was always torn between understanding her for doing what she did and thinking this to be way too stupid even for the given situation. There was something about just marching up to him and slapping him upside the head that didn't quite feel like grief made her loose her common sense. Also that she still had her youngest to think about.

Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
I'd be pissed and probably wouldn't be able to think straight if some lunkhead had just intentionally killed my son without any sign of remorse, and currently was practically holding her and everyone else hostage as he threatened to kill what was now her only son. She didn't expect him to feel mercy and guilt for what he did; she was just angry sitting there doing nothing.DBZAOTA482 wrote:I never thought she was dumb but you can't say she's much of a cut above Goku in the intelligence department.

And Piccolo probably didn't know what she was going to do, and/or Boo may've been too fast for him.

Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
Lol yust what kind of thread is this ? Who cares about Chichis powers ? Btw Chichi is strongest during 23rd Tenkaichi Budoukai. There is no way that she got stronger after that. Probably got even weaker but still has powers above averge humans...

Also, please work on your spelling and grammar; your posts are becoming increasingly difficult to read.

Alas it was her inability to think outside her own maternal instinct that became her undoing and she was ultimately crushed faster than her sex life with Goku.Piccolo Daimao wrote:I'd be pissed and probably wouldn't be able to think straight if some lunkhead had just intentionally killed my son without any sign of remorse.

..And you'd think Gotenks would have taken the battle more seriously.

But I think Gotenks is practically a different character to Goten and Trunks individually. When they first entered the RoSaT, while Trunks was complaining about the food and stuff, Goten had started right off with his training, recently angered by the death of his mother. But later, Trunks, the more arrogant one of the two, coerced Goten into going along with his plan, which was only exacerbated by the buffoonery of Gotenks himself.

Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
That kinda pissed me off when goten transformed because ChiChi was basically like "you monster freak get away from me"
Also why doesn't Goten have a tail?

Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
Chi-chi's reaction was filler and a dubline. In the original, she thinks Goten has become a punk because in Japan there is a stereotype of delinquents dying their hair blonde.son veku wrote:That kinda pissed me off when goten transformed because ChiChi was basically like "you monster freak get away from me"

Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
Goten and Trunks were born without tails. This is mentioned in the Daizenshuu and also by Toriyama in a inteview.
Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
Toriyama said in an interview that the tail gene is recessive. A weird answer, but it doesn't contradict the Daizenshuu's comment about Trunks and Goten being born without them.son veku wrote:Also why doesn't Goten have a tail?

Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
The actual reason Trunks and Goten didn't have tails was that Toriyama simply forgot to give them any.
Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
That's wrong, because in present Trunks' first appearance the lack of tail was noted.Majin Boo wrote:The actual reason Trunks and Goten didn't have tails was that Toriyama simply forgot to give them any.

Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
Yeah, she said the same thing about Gohan after he and Gokuu returned to their house after leaving the RoSaT. Presumably, it wasn't only the blonde hair that made her think he'd become a punk, but the fact that it was spiky too.Saiga wrote:Chi-chi's reaction was filler and a dubline.

Yeah, Toriyama had Kuririn ask Blooma, "Where's his tail? Did you cut it off?", but he didn't include an answer from her, for some reason.Saiga wrote:That's wrong, because in present Trunks' first appearance the lack of tail was noted.Majin Boo wrote:The actual reason Trunks and Goten didn't have tails was that Toriyama simply forgot to give them any.

Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
Well, maybe. But it's look like Goten SSJ didn't need rage, but desperation.OzzyApu wrote:Not very strong. I really doubt she was well beyond what she had when she fought Goku at the Tenkaichi back in DB. She took on the motherly role for the duration of Gohan's upbringing. When it came to Goten, there's no indication that she pushed to another level of power beyond what she was. The way Goten was given SSJ just reeks of bad writing, so I wouldn't make any sense out of it.
Re: Exactly how strong was Chichi during the Boo Saga?
Huh, that's weird; I could've sworn I read an interview where Toriyama said he forgot to give them tails, but I can't find any such thing now searching for it.
Maybe it was that Toriyama simply didn't want to draw the tails anymore and didn't really care whether it was consistent or not?
