Off-topic, but I earlier realized it could've been kind of cool if Goku managed to pull some strings and gotten Grandpa Gohan to participate in the tournament, taking Tien's place. I mean Roshi did train him and he kicked Kid Goku's rear end, so he could've done some damage to the other teams, possibly.

EDIT: Got that backwards.

Gohan was trained by Roshi. Roshi is like 1000 years old

Clark would never fight Goku because he's physically repulsed by violence and only does it because he follows Spider-Man's creed of power and responsibility.

Depends on the version.

Superman's not a fight maniac, but he sometimes gets to the point where he wouldn't have a bad time if he went in for a friendly spar someone else suggested.

I can see Silver Age Superman agreeing to fight this martial arts champion for charity, and then going all "Great Rao! He's almost as strong as I am!" and then having it all turn into some elaborate scheme to pull a prank on Lois and Jimmy.

Also let's make no bones about it, Silver Age Superman would wipe the floor with Goku


Mostly because he himself is effectively a gag comic character.


Silver Age Superman gets a lot of shade thrown at him, but he's actually really great. You just have to go into his stories not expecting like, a superhero struggling against impossible odds, but instead an all powerful bored deity who decides to dick around with the mortals for funsies and does whatever the gently caress he wants however he chooses.


The comics code of the time took the teeth out of super hero books, so by God did Silver Age Superman just get WEIRD with it. The fact that he married Jimmy Olson to a gorilla twice isn't even touching some of the poo poo he got up to.

I still like my idea of a Kid Goku era ToP. :/

Beerus is neat in that he could fit in real well right after King Piccolo dies. Have him float in with Whis. "Hi, the Demon King is dead, maybe you're the Legendary Super Saiyan, who I need along with nine other warriors with attitude for the Tournament of Power, fight me", have an arc of some training and discovery and BoGish stuff, arc after is the ToP, have Grandpa Gohan along as one of the 10.

It really amazes me how passionate everyone working on this monkey punch man series are, no matter the language. Him, Nozawa and the US Dub team are just so into it that if someone told me they were doing it for free I would totally belive it.

Fun trivia: The guy who did Goku's voice for the most part in the Latin American dub also did the dubs of most of Jim Carrey's movies which I always find amazingly distracting

Good, because the dude's got serious talent. He has that perfect mix of cool poo poo and gags that Toriyama had back in his prime.

These X vs. Y fights always seem to forget that "power levels are bullshit."

Straight fight between Goku/Superman: Neither wants to kill each other, they fight to a stalemate, satisfied, and find out Cell and Doomsday have teamed up to destroy the world, and Supes/Goku team up to defeat them.

Goku vs. a mind-controlled Superman: Goku wins, Goku knocks Superman out of his mind control, and they both look forward to the fight described above.

Superman vs. Goku Black: Superman wins. Goku shows up and looks forward to the fight first described above.

Goku vs. Saitama: Neither wants to kill the other, they fight to a stalemate, satisfied, and find out Cyborg-Broly is a crazy monster level threat, and team up to defeat Cyborg-Broly
Edit: this one would probably have Saitama send off Goku to defend Saitama's favorite grocery store from some impossibly strong threat that doesn't exist, while Saitama kills Cyborg Broly with a punch

And you can repeat this formula for any combo of "your favorite hero" vs. "another similar hero."

It's not a weakness. He's just has the same amount of magic resistance as an average human.

Yeah and even then his powers can mitigate it somewhat. If you cast a spell at Superman to turn him into a rabbit, he'll turn into a rabbit like anyone else, but if your particular brand of magic happens to call down lightning bolts, he'll be durable enough to withstand what would turn a normal human into a pile of ash.

So in reality, Superman's biggest threat in the Dragon Ball universe isn't Goku, it's Buu.

It was weird. If it were possible I'd say Toei mixed up their animes cause that's definitely something that usually happens in Saint Seiya when someone is raising their cosmos (Saint Seiya's version of ki/reishi/magic)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BMjV-RRPZ8&t=63s
(sorry for the gratuitous spanish but it's the only version I could find)

Regardless, I think that galaxy represents Goku's ki/heat that he had been building through the last portion of the battle, and him breathing it in goes along with Whis' teaching him how to control his ki from leaking from his body, I think???

Most likely the director thought the shot looked dope and there's not much explanation behind it.

like idk it just struck me as super weird and strange. like remember when he first turned UI it was with the spirit bomb backfiring and infusing him and that comes from other sources. im probably way too high while thinking about this but it just looked real strange and thats what i was thinkin of

This doesn't work, though, because at that point, Beerus would probably just recruit Frieza and his army's members. Plus maybe Babidi's two non-Dabura alien lackeys. Not even Vegeta and Nappa would make the cut; they were weak compared to the rest of the army.

It would be Frieza, the Ginyu Force, Zarbon, Dodoria, and Babidi's lackeys.
