That's a jump of at least 8x in the span of six months, all the while being forced to work, so his training entails whatever he can "get away with". In comparison, it'd be a stretch to say that his strength even doubled during the seven years of intense (by his own words) training he did in the afterlife between the Cell and Buu Sagas. The end of Z still left it open as to how much of Buu's power Uub was actually using against Goku, as it could very well have only been a portion of Pure Buu's strength (just enough for Goku to know full well who Uub actually was).h0kuten wrote: Why can't it be an indicator of strength? Goku was training to be able to defeat Kid Buu on his own. EOZ implies he is able to do so in normal Base form.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
Well the episode has aired.
- Goku never fought Frieza or Cell so most of that discussion was for nothing in the end.
- Beerus tapped his nail and destroyed half a planet (best feat in the series so far?)

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
The Manga should always be superior to the anime in terms of accuracy. Some events in the Manga of Fukkatsu no F didn't happen in the Anime movie.Bullza wrote:Well the episode has aired.

So I wouldn't say Goku didn't imagine how much improvements he's had and compared them to his former enemies.
Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
The manga would usually come first but this Dragon Ball Super is an anime first and a manga adaptation second just like the RoF manga which also had some differences from the movie
Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
Yea the manga is the secondary source with recent material. The anime/movies are the main sources this time around. So if scenes that happened in the manga happened differently in the anime/movies then it would be the latter that would come first.
Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
Pretty much. The manga this time around is literally just the advertisement for the anime. Just like how the ROF manga was an advertisement for the movie.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!
Spoiler:
Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
The Dragonball Fukkatsu no F Manga & Dragonball Super Manga all came before the actual show. So I'll still take the Manga over the Anime adaption, especially if the Manga makes more sense.
An example that comes to mind is when Whiss knocks out Vegeta, it never occurred in the Manga and was obviously something to power up Goku just for the sake that he's Goku.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
Except not, since Whis could just as easily knock out Goku. Additionally, the manga for Super and RoF are adaptations. They do not supercede the Mangah0kuten wrote:The Dragonball Fukkatsu no F Manga & Dragonball Super Manga all came before the actual show.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
You're going to take the secondary material over the primary material? Toriyama is working on the anime and the manga is done by other people based on the anime. DBS is anime first.h0kuten wrote:The Dragonball Fukkatsu no F Manga & Dragonball Super Manga all came before the actual show.

OT: Holy shit I'm not even amazed by the striking feat, but the travel speed. They moved at least millions of miles away in seconds. From finger tapping the planet to being far enough away it looks like a tiny ball in approximately 3 seconds? MFTL confirmed. Feats wheeee.
Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
Well it sure didn't take long for someone to attempt to calculate the striking feat.

What's more impressive is that the same guy was punching Goku in the face at 70% of his power while pretty serious and Goku was tough enough to fight through it.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
Now we're going to get people saying "that was a ki attack" without realizing characters in DBZ use ki for their punches already anyway.Bullza wrote:Well it sure didn't take long for someone to attempt to calculate the striking feat.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
Calcs are annoying at times, to me that's just to show that Beerus can destroy a planet with ease with a poke. Maybe Beerus is FTL, I'm really expecting it to be in the series sooner or later.
RE: Anime vs Manga
In this case the anime is the true source, the Manga's just an adaption.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
This and the Revival of F manga aren't like how it was with the original Dragon Ball manga though. In these cases, it's Toriyama that's working on the anime/movie, while Toyotaro's working on adaptations of the story to pre-date the release of their animated versions. We don't know exactly what Toyotaro's going off of, but in this situation, it's the anime that supersedes the manga in terms of story accuracy, not the other way around.h0kuten wrote:The Dragonball Fukkatsu no F Manga & Dragonball Super Manga all came before the actual show.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
It doesn't matter, these manga aren't made by Toriyama himself. The original manga was superior because it was the original thing done solely by the original author, not because it was in the manga format. These mangas have no such privilege.h0kuten wrote:The Dragonball Fukkatsu no F Manga & Dragonball Super Manga all came before the actual show.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
So you'll take something that's literally only meant to advertise the anime? With no guarantee that it'll be 100% accurate?h0kuten wrote:The Dragonball Fukkatsu no F Manga & Dragonball Super Manga all came before the actual show.

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
Beerus also has a casual ftl feat
Not my Calc BTW
Not my Calc BTW
He appeared behind a another planet 4* seconds after destroying a planet he was inside.
Approximate estimation via real world examples
The distance between earth and Mars is
closest = 54.6milliion kilometres
average = 225 million kilometres
furthest = 401 million kilometres.
Since the chances of it being the closest and the furthest are unpractical, we'll use the average. So using a real world estimation he travelled 225 000 000 km in 4* seconds. That means he was crossing 56, 250, 000 km per second . Light travellers 299,792 km per second.
Meaning he was 187.33 times faster than light

Re: Dragon Ball Super: Power Level Discussion Thread
That calc is better than the other one Saiyan007, but it seems a bit high. I believe Beerus is FTL, I'll just wait for more feats until I call him MFTL.
