Can Dragon Ball Characters Destroy Stars?

[RandomGuy96]

Some things:

-The DBO timeline has Goku and Vegeta causing a Supernova (or multiple, depending the translation).
-An anime based guidebook confirmed that Cell can indeed destroy the solar system.
-An anime only flashback had Pure Buu extinguishing a significant portion of a galaxy's luminescence, heavily implying the destruction of stars.

So, with all that taken into account, particularly the DBO line, wouldn't Gohan, Gotenks, Goku, and any form of Buu be star busters?

[DBZGTKOSDH]

Everything says they can, and nothing says they can't. So, it's possible, but only if the character is at least from Super Perfect Cell's lever & up, and can use a powerful technique for that.

[The Monkey King]

The Chozenshuu confirmes Beers has been destroying stars since that's his job.
Calcs put Kid Buu's Vanishing Ball at star level because of the way it exploded.

In the first Cooler movie, Cooler was thinking about destroying the Sun and letting them freeze to death.

Imagine how many villains asses could he save if he did that.

Wait, wasn't the sun destroyed in the end of the movie? Though it was restored immediately.

[TheMightyOzaru]

Yes. Cell could certainly destroy the Sun IMO. It would take someone of Super Buu's level to destroy something like VY Canis Majoris though IMO. Here is what I use for my busting calcs:
Earth: 1 x 16,000 = 16,000
Moon: 0.0123 x 16,000 = 196.8
Pluto: 0.0021 x 16,000 = 33.6
Mercury: 0.0553 x 16,000 = 884.8
Mars: 0.107 x 16,000 = 1,712
Venus: 0.815 x 16,000 = 13,040
Namek: 0.92 x 16,000 = 14,720
Planet Vegeta: 10 x 16,000 = 160,000
Uranus: 14.536 x 16,000 = 232,576
Neptune: 17.147 x 16,000 = 274,352
Saturn: 95.159 x 16,000 = 1,522,544
Jupiter: 317.83 x 16,000 = 5,085,280
Sun: 332,946 x 16,000 = 5,327,136,000
VY Canis Majoris: 9,988,380 x 16,000 = 159,814,080,000
Milky Way Galaxy: 416,182,500,000,000,000 x 16,000 = 6,658,920,000,000,000,000,000

Well not ALL stars but certain stars can easily destroy.

Sun - Mass 332,768 - Power - 3,329,000,000 billion
Gliese 581 - Mass 106,644 - power - 1,066,440,000

I'm sure anyone at least in the Android Arc could destroy these stars. So yes in fact they can destroys stars.

Don't you think it'd be more convenient to just use scientific notation? This is, you know, the standard way of writing very big or very small numbers, and is able to avoid the huge mess that frequently arises in these discussions. Also, there's no need to display several significant figures when said numbers are simply very rough estimates by nature.

Anyway, on-topic, I don't see why not. I've certainly always looked at them as such. From the moment Muten Roshi destroyed the Moon in early Dragon Ball, and bearing in mind the non-stop exponential growth in power that the characters display throughtout the series, I wouldn't find it the least bit surprising.

None of these are very small or very big numbers for dbz . Plus not everyone understands the Scientific Notation.

Seeing that BOG is canon to the manga, I think the later characters could. Destroying the sun takes a lot of power and being stronger then Character A does not mean you can do the same 10X over. #18 is much stronger then Freeza, but I doubt she can destroy anything other then Planets.

In the first Cooler movie, Cooler was thinking about destroying the Sun and letting them freeze to death.

I remember it was a small black out in the end. Besides I remember Coola saying that he could destroy the Sun was a Funi dub line.

I believe they can. But I don't believe in Galaxy busting. Though Anime Boohan was a universe disrupter who could destroy it all if given enough time.

I think anyone is a Galaxy buster if Given time. If humans(Real life) can destroy Earth given time. Just imagine if we fuck up and destroy the ever expanding universe

[Kamiccolo9]

Personally, I find the term "galaxy buster" to be kinda dumb.
Vegeta "I can destroy planets!"
Cell "I will destroy the Solar System!"
Proposed Galaxy Buster "I will destroy something that is 99% empty space!"

Hey it's a great feat. Do you know how hard it is to destroy empty space. Been trying to beat up space for a long time. I lost......

[dbzfan7]

Vegeta "I can destroy planets!"
Cell "I will destroy the Solar System!"

Exactly why I think it's ridiculous

Now ask yourself this. Does Akira Toriyama think that? Most likely. But remember the other 1% is hard to destroy. Lastly it's harder to destroy empty space than filled space.

Hell the distance between Solar systems is probably massive.

Yup. SCIENCE RULES.

I say thee nay.
