What if Boo Passed?

Post by Darkron2151 » Tue Jul 12, 2016 4:44 pm

For Dragon Ball Super's Universe 6-7 Tournament, how do you all think the tournament/fights would've changed if Boo had passed the initial test and was able to participate? The fighter order would be the same as before, but with Boo fighting first instead of Goku.

I think Frost would have beat him. Goku would have fought afterwards and I think Goku would end up fighting for most of the tournament.

Well power level wise he'd be no match for any of them except for maybe Botamo because they're all at least as strong as Base Goku and Vegeta and they're stronger than SSJ3 Gotenks who is vastly more powerful than what Buu is.

But with his magical abilities, maybe he could catch one off guard with a candy beam perhaps but then anyone who fought him afterwards would just be aware of it and would have no problem knocking him out the ring.

Boo seems stupid at times. He'd probably find a way to lose to Botamo. If he somehow won, Frost stomps.

If we're going by the manga, Majin Boo would have shitstomped the entire U6 team, except Hit. If it's the anime we're talking about, he wouldn't get past Frost.

I think if buu passed, he would turn everyone into candy and eat them. Not even kidding.

Buu is not so smart.
So, anyway...

He could loose vs Botamo if can't find the trick.
He could win very easily against Cabba (no SSJ stuff).
He could win against Frost, that depend if poison harm him. If not, Frost=Frieza, so not an issue for him.
He struggle with Magetta (I dunno if mechanical stuff can be turned to candy, and I believe he suffer more than Vegeta the hot lava).
Obviously Hit could defeat him anytime.

Frost in his 4th form would be enough to beat him. Goku after three years of training use SSj against him. Frost could easily defeat any form of Buu after transforming out of his 1st form.

I'd say I agree.
Of course if we're talking about a legit fistfight. If Buu can use the Candy Beam or is allowed to absorb the opponent, then everyone minus Hit is royally screwed even in the anime (unless Super Saiyan Cabbe or Final Form Frost speedblitz him/ throw him out of the ring immediately).

He'd beat Maggeta because buu has a tendency to insult his opponents. He'd probably call him stupid or something and Maggeta would lose the will to fight.

Not sure about Frost's power level, but I don't think his poison would work on buu.

He'd lose to hit.

If his candy ray doesn't work on Botamo then he might lose to him as well.

I don't think he'd be able to beat Cabba cause his base seemed to be just as strong as Vegeta's.

He tends to insult when he gets mad so he'd probably win against Maggeta.

If poison doesn't work on him he'd defeat Frost.

.
Considering that Vegeta wasn't really taking that fight seriously and was mostly 'training' Cabba, I don't think we can really measure Cabba's power from it.

Pretty sure Buu is stronger power-wise than all U6 opponents except for Hit.

While Buu might lose because of him doing something stupid or being "outsmarted," I think raw power wise he's way above all the others.

Buu is only a pegs stronger than SSJ2 Goku and Vegeta from the Buu saga. Base Goku and Vegeta now are stronger than SSJ3 Gotenks and Frost, Magetta, Super Saiyan Cabba and obviously Hit are clearly above their base level.

Agreed.

In the manga, we never got any indication that Goku absorbed the Super Saiyan God power. Meaning Base Goku/Vegeta by Champa Arc in the manga was probably only a good deal stronger than he was before he became SSG. So Boo would probably able to beat Botamo and Frost, and Cabba. Magetta in the manga is basically invulnerable, only way for Boo to beat him is to turn him into candy or absorb him, Magetta will technically still alive if he will get absorbed or turned to candy by Boo, so Boo wins until hitting a brick wall at Hit.

In the anime, Boo fell asleep, so even if he passed the test, he still wouldn't be able to participate. Throwing that aside, Copy-Vegeta (Who is equal to Base Vegeta) stomped SSj3 Gotenks. Gotenks even in Base is vastly stronger than any of Boo's forms barring Evil Boo and his absorptions. So Boo would get stomped by any of the Universe 6 Participants.

Depens if you believe gohan and gotenks slacked off in time of peace or not. For once we know gohan did as shown in the rof as he needed picoolo to retrain him from scratch, while both goten and trunks seem to be just goofing around and not having time to train or at least neglect it, so this way:

bog gohan: 80% of buu arc ultimate gohan, bog gotenks: 80% of buu arc gotenks
rof gohan: 40% of buu arc ultimate gohan(while as ss), rof gotenks: 60%-70% of buu arc gotenks

By purple vegeta fight against ss3 gotenks, we know that at least they are stronger then 60%-70% of buu arc gotenks. Also We can easily conclude that goku and vegeta improved after fight in u6, but anyway at the least they would be as string as buu arc ss2 gotenks in u6, which could be enough for Mr. buu, even while enraged.

Botamo: He could win by tricks or throwing him out of the ring
Frost: Until Assault form I can see buu holding his own with help of magic and rage, but loose to Final form Frost
Magenta: Only by using insults or candy bream he may win, otherwise he is lost
Cabba: He would beat him quite easily, because even if Cabba has slight advantage he would run out of his stamina fast.
Hit: Hit stomps

There is indication that Trunks or Goten got weaker. If they did, Copy-Vegeta or the real Vegeta would've criticize them for it, but they didn't. Heck, even if you say Gotenks lost more than half his former power, he would probably still superior to Mr. Boo in Base.

He wouldn't be smart enough to throw Botamo out of the ring. If he tried transmutation on him that might count as killing and get him disqualified. Assuming it doesn't and he wins, then it depends whether you think Goku was using god ki in SSJ1 or just his normal SSJ1 state against Frost. The poison couldn't affect Buu, so if it's the former Frost beats him, but if it's the latter he wins. Against Magetta, again it depends on how much power you think SSJ1 Vegeta was using. However there's also the possibility that Buu would insult him way earlier than Vegeta did. Against Cabba, again it matters how strong base and SSJ1 Vegeta were in that fight. Against Hit he loses.

Isn't Boo's regeneration impervious unless he's getting beaten by another Boo? I'd say that fact alone would give him a pretty good edge against the anime team. Against the manga team he'd probably be able to solo everyone up to Hit.
When someone tells you, "Don't present your opinion as fact," what they're actually saying is, "Don't present your opinion with any conviction. Because I don't like your opinion, and I want to be able to dismiss it as easily as possible." Don't fall for it.
