Are we sure Goku is literate?

Roshi did teach Goku and Krillin some stuff as kids. I don' think we know what it was, but I assume some sort of basic numeracy/literacy type stuff. But then Goku has also been hit in the brain by things which would crack planets.
So my answer is no.

I assume Krillin, being a monk, probably already knew how to read.

They're going to say that, because the World of Void is outside reality, conventional time and space doesn't apply to it. The potaro fusion will last as long as it needs to (please ignore all other instances of time being relevant in this tournament)

Fusion lasts half an hour, and there is less than half an hour left in the tournament.

fusion time is shorter when you're making GBS threads out power, unless you want to pretend like vegito blue fought zamasu for a full hour before defusing. that'd be some reverse namek time right there

As long as they don't go SSj3 they should be fine. I am sure they are not as powerful as Vegitto Blue.

Even if they don't (which seems unlikely), Legendary Super Saiyan is pretty close to it, can't imagine the Fusion won't fizzle out pretty quick if Kafla uses that.

Super Saiyan 3 is a huge energy hog, but Legendary Super Saiyan can't stop gaining energy. It's the perfect union.

Because it makes for very cool toys.



Also Korean preview is out and Kafla is more powerful than Goku as a Super Saiyan Blue, which was expected. She'll likely be the one to push him to full UI for the eventual Jiren rematch.

That should just be super obvious.

Kale is already stronger than SSB Goku by a loving ton. While Cauli isn't boosting Kale as much as Vegeta can boost Goku, she's STILL adding a lot of power because Fusions are broken as gently caress. Kafla would likely be a good match for Jiren at this point. Remember, Kale going out of control is what made Jiren act first, and she basically shrugged off his attack after she came to. The only reason it rocked her as hard as it did was because he hit her from behind without her even defending. Kale is stupid strong, she just has to get control of that power.

No, that was just regular Super Saiyan. It took Kale going Berserk to push Caulifla to SS2 and she wasn't able to replicate it until fighting Goku later and it took the threats against his universe and friends to drive Cabba to SS2.

It seems consistent that for SS2 you need to have people killed/threatened in front of you who you just met.

Cabba rage boosted SSJ. He was really bad at getting Caulifla to do the same so she told him to explain how he does it without getting mad and was able to do it (but not on the first try!). Then she went SS2 to save his life when Kale tried to vaporize him, not from back tingles. Goku taught her how to replicate it when they fought the first time, and since she had been there before it wasn't that hard to do anymore. Then Cabba got SS2 through another rage boost when the u4 bowling ball started threatening his waifus.

Manatee Cannon posted:

I mean, if we're counting going SS2 after already attaining it previously you can throw Gohan on the list too since he went SS2 at the WMAT

It's kind of like when Roger Bannister broke the 4 minute mile. It was a huge deal at the time because no one had done it before, and no one was sure it was even possible. It has since become the standard for distance runners because knowing something is attainable makes it much easier to attain.

She has to be Potara. She doesn't have the funky genie outfit that Dance users get.

Okay, okay, so hear me out here:

There are Eight Namekians. Each of them fuse together into two Namekians, leaving you with four. Two pairs of those four Namekians fuse using Potara Earrings, and then those two fusions do the fusion dance. Then Captain Ginyu steals their body but before they unfuse he splits himself into all his good and all his evil like Kami did. Then all the time limits resolve at once. Solve for X.
