I understood that, I was merely pointing out that Goku said that about the potara because he thought he wouldn`t have a chance to charge his SSJ3 for a whole minute (which was what he needed to finish Kid Buu).dbgtFO wrote:Hey hey, I wasn't talking about his power, I was just pointing it out, that Goku later on retracts his statement, that they won't need the potara.
Being unable to do so, and that being the only way he could think of to kill Kid Buu at that moment, since his attacks weren`t wearing out Kid Buu at all because of his abnormal stamina and regeneration, the potara would have been really useful, and this is what he regrets and states. Not that he wouldn`t be able to kill Kid Buu without the potara, just that he wouldn`t have the opportunity to do what he needed to finish him by himself, so the potara would have been useful.
But then Vegeta says that he will give Goku that minute, so it all becomes a non issue.
Of course, then Goku realizes that he can`t charge his SSJ3 while being alive, which he didn`t predict at all and caught him by surprise. So, he could again regret not having the potara but fortunately Vegeta came up with the alternative plan of the Genki Dama. And the rest is history.
So yeah, they actually didn`t need the potara like they said, even though they had more trouble than they thought they would have because of Kid Buu`s stamina and regeneration. They wouldn`t even need the Genki Dama if Goku had been able to fully charge his SSJ3.
But enough offtopic
