Earthlings are also the best chefs in the universe, and while he isn't food obsessed like Beerus Freeza does seem to like having nice things.

If you fed him some ramen or something you could probably get Freeza to just enslave the humans instead.

when Frieza came back, they should have just offered him some pizza to chill out, he would probably just stop fighting and eat.

same with Cell. All he ate was nasty tasting fat humans and an android or two. But has he tasted a good bowl of curry

I do like how it's implied that Earth has literally the best food in the universe, and that even Gods like Beerus are amazed by cheapo cup noodles.

it's interesting how you can see the seeds of things that become dragon ball. even in the beginning he had pretty solid fundamentals, though it's amazing how much he improved his anatomy over time

Would Cell eat food through his tail, too? This is the most important question.

Buu also loves being on earth just to eat. He, uh, is known to cook his own food sometimes though.

I found it weird in the last manga how Beerus and Whis were enjoying Lemo's cooking.

Maybe he picked up some recipes from earth?

its easy to miss but lemo is with frieza when he goes to planet vegeta at the start of super broly. beerus liked the saiyan food too (theres the flashback of him eating the feast king vegeta laid out for him in battle of gods) and lemo is cooking for broly too, so presumably lemos just cooking saiyan food, or something like it.

frieza will be next door neighbor and friends with Bulma, much to Vegeta's chagrin, and trade dragonball wishes back and forth to remove a wrinkle from bulma and make frieza taller by 1mm

Resurrection F showed that the core Z crew can handle just about anyone in the universe minus the big bads. They were clowning on the entirety of Freeza's army including Master Roshi (who seems to have been granted some scaled strength in Super).

He survived an attack from a God of Destruction so either he's insanely powerful or he has managed to unlock the power of comedy physics and thus could kick Vegeta's rear end if it was funny.

the average power level doesnt seem to be that high so if yamcha's power was in the tens of thousands he'd be stronger than most of the universe

I don't think Roshi got scaled strength, Roshi just was always a top-tier human until space aliens started to come into play. It's worth noting that Roshi is still arguably the strongest human being on Earth who isn't either an alien, descended from aliens, was given a powerup by an alien, or is a cyborg. Dude was an absolute fuckin' beast for humans.

Wait, but due to the decades of "Yamcha is weak" memes, Yamcha kicking anyone's rear end is now funny.

We've been unknowingly fueling his comedy power level this whole time.

Yeah, I liked that Super decided Roshi had been keeping up with training and was in secret still very formidable- he just was old and usually is fine leaving things to the younguns.

It still feels like they were setting up him dying during the ToP and then wimped out on it though.

Hell, Captain Ginyu was the single most elite fighter in his entire army, leader of his special forces unit, and he only achieved that role through his body change technique. He doesn't even really show any exceptional aptitude at fighting, so we're left to assume he just brute forced his way to the top of the pile by stealing the bodies of anyone more powerful than himself.

ginyu knows more about ki than the average fighter and knew that goku was suppressing his power but he didnt know that the real reason goku was so strong was because of the kaioken which is a bullshit technique taught by a god that lives on a tiny planet with a monkey and a non canon grasshopper

He just assumed Goku was a mutant like him and all his power was just out in the open. Apparently had no idea that Goku actually trained and could control his power to a degree that very few people could even fathom, which was his downfall. All that overwhelming power is useless if you can't access it.

I have to assume his power up came from a combination of the unspoken "seeing a higher power level makes it way easier to reach it" rule, and being inspired by his students hitting what seemed like a ceiling and smashing through it over and over.

Krillin in particular is a normal human who is more powerful than Roshi would have considered possible at his previous peak, and that probably taught Roshi that he had higher to go too.

He learned from his students. :3:

I wonder if Krillin ever told Roshi that he got his potential unleashed by an alien god.

"LET'S GET DOWN TO WORK!!"
Remember that Roshi basically fought Goku to a draw back in the first Budokai and then conceded to Tenshinhan in the second, who then fought the powered up Goku essentially to a draw.

This was the Goku that had trained under Korin, killed Taopaipai and taken out the entire Red Ribbon Army, not to mention Baba's Mummy and Devil.

Roshi had a lot of ground to cover even before his students started training with a parade of gods.
