Better question, why did everyone else turn Super Sayian? Why wasn't a Goku exclusive, but be very energy intensive or something similar to keep it to limited uses? Short answer: Because the Super Saiyan Swagger of Vegeta could not be held back.

Thinking back on it, why did Yamcha even think of wishing for money in the Cell Saga? Being one of the strongest humans in the universe and the fact he's on a baseball team, he could easily ask for humongous salaries since he can consistently send balls into the stratosphere and pitch so fast it goes through the stadium walls.

projecthalaxy posted:Xenoverse is OK, it just needed less RNGs and more Super Janemba taking over worlds. That's a cool dude, Super Janemba. Xenoverse would be better if it cribbed more from Heroes and was full of what-if bullshit. That and the races being more legit and everyone getting some transformation. Also, yeah, less RNG and less Super Armor.

projecthalaxy posted:I agree. My favorite part of any DB video game is the What If stuff, with BudoTen 2/3, the Shin Budokai games, and even Ultimate Tenkaichi all being stellar in that regard. While some Parallel Quests in Xenoverse have that charm to them, and the Broly/Bardock chapter qualifies, I was annoyed at how little there was. Imagine if one Parraell Quest was being ambushed by Majin Bojack, Majin Garlic Junior, and Majin Super Jenamba with Adult Gotenks being your ally?

Amorphous Blob posted:Mecha cooler is the only one I've seen that outright sucks. Brolly 2 was kinda average(Krillin was too much of a joke and it was very B team) tho I haven't seen Brolly 3 which is supposed to be even worse. I don't know. I just watched World's Strongest (literally minutes ago) and it handled the Kaioken pretty well by implying Goku can only use it rarely because of body strain. Had quite a few tactics in those battles and was pretty awesome. That said, the main villiains were pretty milquetoast and the exposition scenes felt forced.

Speaking personally, the movie dvds were relatively inexpensive compared to the season boxsets. So, you could rewatch Return of Cooler and Broly when you felt like watching the series. I also had Android 13, but didn't rewatch it too often. Liked watching my cousin's copy of World's Strongest, IIRC. I remember really wanting to see Lord Slug because of an ad in a magazine, but never did. Probably should. I feel I drifted off to nostalgia midthought. Edit: Definitely helps that my first exposure to the entire franchise was an old, VHS copy of Deadzone that my late uncle got me for my birthday. I remember rewatching that a lot.

Petiso posted:I get the impression that, over there, only hardcore otaku buy anime DVDs/BDs, and people who only watch it casually never does even if it's cheap (unlike manga which is more widely bought) and that's why they try to squeeze as much as they can. Feels like a self-fullfiling prophecy.

I'm surprised Funimation hasn't bothered hosting some of the older movies like that. It's nice to be able to toss $4 bucks at google for a thing that I want to watch exactly once. You say Funimation, but it can be Toei's dictations limiting their options.

I think the point of the Goku fight was two-fold: give the audience what they've been waiting for and establish Cell is above Goku thus, later on, establishing that Gohan has surpassed his father when he beats Cell.

Two Finger posted:Yes this was outright stated. The point that seems weird is cell clearly being exhausted by the time goku gives up and gladly eating a senzu (pretty much acknowledging he was worn out) then going well mwa ha I have yet to actually fight at my FULL strength like if that's true then why did you need a senzu and well there we go I've put more thought into it than toriyama did Oh, my bad.

StrifeHira posted:Turns out there was actually a far more involved storyline for that in the voice files! It involved Vegeta wishing back Goku's tail, then wishing the Earth over to them to simulate a full moon, in order to defeat Kid Buu. Further proving Broly is just a chump and not "the strongest character in the series, no really!", Kid Goku beating his dumb rear end.

I think what we're all forgetting is that DBZ dropped power levels as a plot device when Freeza hit his Second Form and all power levels from that point forward is just fan speculation.
|
# ¿ Oct 16, 2015 21:13 |

The important thing to know is Freeza got stronger than Goku in SSJGSSJ by training for four months, but got killed by the energy drain. Trying to put exact numbers to it, especially when the creator clearly did not care, is kind of obsessive and nerdy.
