Where did all the energy go when Chiaotzu detonated? A sphere the size of the moon was not created. Or Vegeta for that matter - the planet didn't blow up. It's hard to believe that someone is suppressing energy that is vaporizing them.RandomGuy96 wrote: Otherwise, you're saying that the energy just disappears for no reason.
Actually, the suppressing argument is still weird even for regular explosive attacks. They can suppress a beam to stop it exploding, but what happens to the energy once they let it explode? If the suppression is just letting the energy expand to a certain size of sphere, where does it go after that? The problem is not at all solved. The energy doesn't come back to them, so what happens to the ki in the expanding sphere? Does the ki sphere turn into huge numbers of microscopic bits of ki which are all carefully and invisibly sent into space for every attack?
Honestly, even then how is the ki damaging the opponents if it isn't transferring the planet destroying energy to them? The energy still has to be suppressed once it hits the enemy, so that molecules are prevented from vibrating with planet busting energy to stop it being transferred to the air and ground. But then, how is the enemies body being damaged if their molecular bonds aren't being torn apart in some way?
The entire argument is that real physics applies and that in order to damage the strong characters every attack has to have planet destroying planet, and then because of that this energy has to only affect the target. Unfortunately, you still don't solve where the energy goes, because in order to damage the target, there has to be relative motion caused by the shockwaves which would tear tissue. Once you accept this, you are still left wondering how that motion isn't transferred to everything in contact with the target. If you wish it all into space then it doesn't get used on the enemy. If it's used on the enemy, then the vibration of molecules which causes damage transfers energy to the air and ground. Suppression begins to sound a lot more like not using the energy, which defeats the initial point of characters needing planet destroying amounts of energy input to their bodies to damage them.
Suppression doesn't do what you want it to. You say it's needed because of real physics, but real physics stops it from being able to damage the enemies without it being transferred to the planet defeating the point of "suppression" in the first place.
