I know it's not exactly a power levels discussion, but this thread has had me thinking about this the last couple days https://twitter.com/WeebSimpsons/status/928024531750531074

Blueberry Pancakes posted:Piccolo most definitely could've beaten 19 and 20. Getting shot by Gero did nothing to him, and he even smacks him around later and cuts off one of his hands. I feel like him being able to basically beat Gero came out of Toriyama deciding to not make Gero the main villain after all, since there's no reason for Piccolo to be lying on the floor pretending to be hurt or let 19 almost murder Goku if he was always capable of that.

Honestly makes it interesting to have the instigator of the whole arc dying early on with everything to follow being totally out of his control. Kind of the opposite of the usual thing where you beat the guy in charge and everyone else scatters.

He was written as feeling that he was near par with SSJs from close to the jump of that arc, though, so whatever he had planned, Piccolo was still up in the rankings.

Ya Piccolo trained with Goku so presumably they were pretty close because that's how DBZ works.

Piccolo was so cool and able to keep pace until the Buu Saga, it really sucks he's been dropped since then. They even teased a Piccolo v. Super Buu fight before Gohan got teleported to earth.

Kurui Reiten posted:Well, Piccolo might have been a bit weaker, but he went from "Too weak to take on 19 or 20" to "able to fight on at least the level of 17" just by absorbing Kami. With 17 and 18 being significantly weaker in Trunks' timeline (to the point he comments on it in the Z timeline), presumably Kamicolo would have also been a game changer in Trunks' timeline. Piccolo definitely could have taken down 19 or 20.

The androids are stronger in the main timeline because they're fresh out of the box and don't have 20 years of miles on the clock with no servicing.

I finally dropped the bux for Fighterz and am just completely blown away, not only by how this is the first technical fighting game that I've been able to get into quickly and enjoy, but also by Tien not just completely sucking rear end.

I like to think that by now, and for certain after the ToP, that 17 really has calmed down and chilled out, but he gets such a mean thrill out of doing the Cold Killer Cyborg bit that he does it whenever he can get away with it

It's really wild to see how much of a dork 17 is compared to the timeline where he and his sister just go completely apeshit on humanity. Kind of shame Future Trunks never got to meet him (and Majin Buu for that matter), but I guess he did see the changed 18, so that's good enough.

There is something really charming about the fact that two of the strongest beings in the universe who had the very real potential to be mass murdering monsters decided to settle down and be chill cool people. .. I mean I guess five if you also count Piccolo, Vegeta and Buu.

Dragon Ball is very good at getting you emotionally invested in characters who wanted to kill millions deciding to settle down and raise children.

She did push Goku off the Nimbus earlier, but that was after he checked whether she was a boy or girl with his foot.

They both seem to have stoic and understated personalities in general, so it's not hard. A lot about them might make sense considering they've lived their lives with only each other for most of it, and went through some serious poo poo being turned into cyborgs and thrown up against superpowered martial artists. And then their horrific experiences at the hands of Cell.
