If they literally evolved to posses the Regen ability Piccolo can't get it unless he too evolves, which is not possible because biology

Why would they though?

If Piccolo had the ability and Saonel and Pirina didn't then I could understand Saonel and Pirina not getting it but Piccolo is from the main cast so if anything new gets introduced then Piccolo should get it somehow.Ki Breaker wrote:If we bring in the word evolution in picture then yes, honouring the word's meaning is something I see DB doing..Michsi wrote:Do you actually think anything in DB would be limited by something like 'it's not scientifically plausible' ?Ki Breaker wrote: I don't think it works that way if we go by piccolo being the less evolved one logic here..

The question isn't if they will or not, it's if they do, then they will honor the meaning of the word..Michsi wrote: Why would they though? Not to mention that the super healing thing seems to be ki/magic based, like most things related to namekians.
If Universe 6 version is indeed ki based, then they wouldn't have unlimited Regen, there is only so much ki, but that is going into speculation..
Jeez mate chill out, he should get it, it's in his favor, but I am 100% positive if it's evolution related, he won't just magically get it on his own..namekiansaiyan wrote: If Piccolo had the ability and Saonel and Pirina didn't then I could understand Saonel and Pirina not getting it but Piccolo is from the main cast so if anything new gets introduced then Piccolo should get it somehow.

My guess is that it's basically what Dende does, except it's directed inward, so I do think it's ki/magic related.Ki Breaker wrote:The question isn't if they will or not, it's if they do, then they will honor the meaning of the word..Michsi wrote: Why would they though?

But it's the same Universe with same species but slightly different features situation again, I can't see it being explained any other way than what the saiyans had, especially if it's Toriyama providing the explanation

Wait, I think I missed something. Was is specified that the U6 saiyans were evolved. All I know is about that tail thing, but it's the fans that came up with the tailess saiyans being stronger than tailed ones theory. Also, U6 saiyans can pretty much do what U7 saiyans can, they just do it easier.

Unless the manga does that too, then good riddance, Freeza, we get another planet full of monkeys for ya here!

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
I thought she was going to be eliminated at the end of the episode for sure. but i did expect her to have cool moment with 17 before going down. i did say for a character that has barely been hyped up and didn't even have a proper recruitment episode she had enough eliminations and after last episode i'm 100% sure nothing is left for her. she very hurt,outmatched, already had a big fight. she can always be eliminated in an upcoming episode out of no where.HeroR wrote:But you claimed last week that 18 was going out in 117 because she was hurt and already had shine.Lapislettuce wrote:Don't you mean "say" ? i know what i said doesn't change the fact that 17 will outlast 18 and that all what she was promoted for already happened. she'll get eliminated in a random moment next for sure.HeroR wrote:

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
In Universe 6 maybe Namekians evolved to only one clan so they have all have the healing ability. It would make sense then that Saonel and Pirina can heal themselvesMichsi wrote:Ki Breaker wrote:We will just have to wait and see..Michsi wrote:

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
I am not a fully sure about this, but I remember Dragonball class namekians being the one to give eggs and reproduce and having healing others ability, and warrior class namekians to be the one who fights can't reproduce and have regeneration..namekiansaiyan wrote:In Universe 6 maybe Namekians evolved to only one clan so they have all have the healing ability.

I don't think them being able to heal themselves is the same as having unlimited regeneration, when it's clearly been distinguished before..

Healing themselves means them taking away the stamina issue it costs to regenerate. I don't think we have seen Dende heal himself before but it could be possible.
Piccolo can attain it because of Kami and he never realised he could do it.
Piccolo could then heal himself from that blast he takes and then he could also heal Goku.
This is surely too good to happen and I am now going to be dissapointed after episode 118.
Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
So I'm feeling like the 3 pride troopers will survive to the end, saving their universe and Jiren may get the wish. Probably Goku and Gohan last to the end.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
This is all just a wait for Goku vs Jiren part 2.
Goku vs Beerus part 1 took 1 episode. Same with Goku vs Cauliflo and Kale part 1. Goku vs Jiren part 1 took 2 episodes.
So, Goku vs Beerus part 2 took 5 episodes (6 if you count the episode where Goku finally transformed into a SSG at the end of the episode).
Then, Goku vs Cauliflo and Kale part 2 took 4 episodes (5 if you count the episode where Cauliflo announced her intentions to fight Goku at the end of the episode).
While this is not necessarily indicative of anything, I'm willing to guess that Goku vs Jiren part 2 is gonna take 6 or 7 episodes. Or at least 5. Which makes sense, given that you don't introduce a monster like Jiren and have him be taken down in like 2 or 3 episodes. Now that'll be true Goku vs Freeza on Namek time right there.

Re: "Dragon Ball Super" Official Announcement & Discussion Thread
The 3 Pride Troopers look like they won't do any more fighting till everyone else is gone, so they'll be the last 3 fighters standing for whoever on U7 remains by the end.
Hell it may be Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Freeza and maybe 17 against 3 of them. It'd be like 5 against 3...even if Jiren is much more powerful than everyone.

Doesn't take away from what I said about Uub though.
"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
