I've seen some crazy and I mean CRAZY feats recently.
She can toss planets.
Is she like toon force or something. If not, doesn't that make her the strongest character in DBZ, even though she only appeared for one episode.
How powerful is Arale ?

Around SSJ2 level if you want to quantify her gag scenes. She split the planet with a punch, made a crack on the sun by throwing someone at it and is faster than light if I recall.

Cracked the sun casually and single to double digit faster than light. So she is above Vegetto who's only small star level. Check my sig, GT will be in there in a couple of days

Re: How powerful is Arale ?
Someone humor me and tell me how much power it takes to "crack the sun." You know, because the sun is an incandescent ball of superheated gas that can't actually be cracked because it isn't solid or anything.

Depends on if she is in a gag manga or a shonen series.

Re: How powerful is Arale ?
This has got to be the best answer I've seen to this question.Depends on if she is in a gag manga or a shonen series.
Basically... In her own series she's as powerful as she needs to be for the current joke/scene, even if it's not physically possible. In DB/DBZ she's... probably just somewhere in the high Dragonball range. Stronger than Goku was when he met her, strong enough to embarrass General Blue just by goofing around, possibly even one of the strongest characters in the original Dragonball... but she's not going to be doing crap to Freeza, Cell, or Buu.
(Though I admit it'd be funny to see Freeza get pummeled by her... Especially since Freeza's such an arrogant bastard, which makes it even more satisfying to see someone absurd beating him up. Once you get beyond Freeza though it just becomes a "going too far" sort of situation and that's not really funny to me.)

She is more powerful than Whis & SS4 Gogeta combined.

Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.
Re: How powerful is Arale ?
Like others have said she's as strong as the joke requires. I don't think she actually has limits. Unless she ever mentioned she couldn't do a certain feat.

Re: How powerful is Arale ?
Well, there were some guys that she couldn't defeat: Caramel Man #7 & the Teapot Genie were stronger than her, she almost died from them (CM #7 even destroyed her body) and she couldn't even scratch them. Tsun Tsukutsun, while angry, became stronger than the Teapot Genie, who defeated Arale, but when he isn't angry, he is nowhere near Arale (the Teapot Genie defeated him with a finger-flick, but he was helpless when Tsukutsun got angry). The Ga-chans have also displayed insane strength like hers, and at least have greater durability, since CM #7's beam didn't even affect one of them, while the same blast defeated Obotchaman, who is a male version of Arale.dbzfan7 wrote:Like others have said she's as strong as the joke requires.

I guess so then. I don't know the series enough to be a good judge. I'm just going by toon force logic.DBZGTKOSDH wrote:Well, there were some guys that she couldn't defeat: Caramel Man #7 & the Teapot Genie were stronger than her, she almost died from them (CM #7 even destroyed her body) and she couldn't even scratch them.

Which proves Arale's might. She is far stronger than logic itself!Kamiccolo9 wrote:Someone humor me and tell me how much power it takes to "crack the sun." You know, because the sun is an incandescent ball of superheated gas that can't actually be cracked because it isn't solid or anything.

Almost as strong as Vegetto.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

She's a gag character, she can be as powerful as she wants to be. She could show up in Battle of Gods and kill Beerus with her foot if she wanted too.

Stronger than Saiyan are Vegeta, weaker than Buu.

Herms wrote:The fact that the ridiculous power inflation is presented so earnestly makes me just roll my eyes and snicker. Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.
