Uhh.. Caulifla is very likely a teenager, fellas. She even calls Goku an "old man." Let's not be weird.

Rhjamiz posted:I'm really hoping Kale mastering her power makes her more confident because as much as I like Kale, I really loving hate that stuttering, simpering personality that tends to show up in anime. Yeah, between Kale's super anxious behavior, Cabba taking on the role of student and insisting on Vegeta being his master/senpai, and all three of the U6 Saiyajins being rail-thin and fairly small, that's why I'd guess they're between 16-19 years old. With the exception being Kale in her Berserker form. I mean, the Saiyajin race doesn't age anything like humans, so who knows. Vegeta and Goku are apparently "old men" but look like they're in their prime physical condition, and the same could be said for Future Trunks, who was, what? About thirty years old?

Well just wait, Pan will kick rear end kinds of rear end. She'll probably reach SSJ2 by age 7 or something. She won the genetic lottery by being Gohan's daughter, plus Videl was quite powerful for a human. And with Mr. Satan as her cool grandpa manager, nothing will stop her. Plus, she was part of Goku's SSJ God ritual, which has gotta count for something. They could use it as an excuse to give her Blue the time she's a teenager. Basically, she should be even stronger than Caulifla.

Caulifa is good. She's gonna look strange without eyebrows, though. Didn't the last episode foreshadow that she's gonna sacrifice herself for Kale? Hit is the ultimate teammate, he can just keep saving everybody right before they get knocked off. He'll probably have to job to Jiren, he's too cool to make it to the end of the tournament.

Blue Star posted:Freeza is stronger than Hit. Maybe in terms of raw power, but Freeza hasn't fought against his Time-Skip gimmick yet. Freeza's also at a disadvantage because he can't outright kill Hit, whereas Hit can just Time-Skip and continually escape. Goku has defeated Hit's gimmick, so he'll probably steer clear of fighting him. Jiren will probably defeat Hit, would be my guess. Now Jiren vs. Freeza, that poo poo needs to happen.

a cartoon duck posted:Plus, Caulifla isn't exactly smart and calculating enough to intentionally ignore Kale to draw out her power, she's as, if not more, impulsive than Goku. To be able to watch Cabba go SSJ and then copy it immediately, and then to see Goku's SSJ2, and copy that immediately, requires a certain kind of intelligence. Maybe not traditional Bulma/Gohan research & book smarts, more like possessing strong instincts and extremely high combat intelligence.

# ¿ Jul 29, 2017 18:44 |

Oh for sure, I agree with you guys that Goku is a fighting savant, which means Caulifla is likely in the same boat. Bulma is our super smart scientist character who comes up with Time Machines and other cool inventions. She and her father fit the description of traditional intelligence. We don't need to go into Howard Gardner's theory of multiple types of intelligence; this is just an anime about fightmans and space cats with bad attitudes, after all. But a savant is still "smart," just in an extremely pointed direction. So Goku probably wouldn't do very well on a standardized test, and may not necessarily possess a high I.Q., but he can still travel instantly across the universe like an omnipotent being (again, thanks to his fighting savant abilities). I'd hesitate to give "savant" any kind of a negative connotation, since in the DB universe, it's one of the most useful and powerful gifts a person can possess.

IcePhoenix posted:She's gone SSJ2 before the tournament though Regarding how that happened, your guess is as good as mine. She also figured out the ultra-beefy SSJ version on her own, too. I guess it's just being a fighting savant and possessing insane natural power and talent, just like her mirror, Goku. The best thing that ever happened to Vegeta was getting access to Blue. Dude struggled so hard just to go SSJ for the first time, remember when he was fighting those meteors and crying out of frustration? Tough times for a super elite Saiyajin. These days, he can apparently tap into god ki. Could it have been due to his participation in the SSJ God ritual? Or maybe when he went off and trained with Beerus and Whis on his own? They'll probably never explain it. Edit: To make things even more confusing, I remember Whis saying something about Vegeta reaching Blue all on his own, without the need for a ritual. Whatever, I'm just glad our favorite jobber didn't get left in the dust like he did in DBZ. Jedah fucked around with this message at 20:45 on Jul 29, 2017 |

I really like Kale and Caulifla, and I'm cool with them going SSJ, too. But man, Vegeta's transformation into SSJ was still one of the coolest moments. He's alone, training on some god-forsaken planet (or moon), fighting against a gigantic meteor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j22HCEaVBEE Totally over-the-top dramatic scenes like this one and Future Trunks freaking out over dead Gohan were

Kanos posted:Presumably it doesn't work like this, since Goku had to ask Baba for help and King Yemma for permission to bring Freeza back, as opposed to simply teleporting to hell and prison breaking him. I got the impression that was Goku needing their permission to release Freeza from his punishment in hell, and that they had the ability to free Freeza for 24 hours. But I won't pretend to know how this works. If he just randomly decided to release Freeza from hell without notifying anybody, Beerus would probably catch wind of it (from one of the Kaiohs), and erase him on the spot. Don't you think?

Nessus posted:Goku might not be able to take other people with him or leave the Afterlife if he or they are dead at the time, but there's the 24 hour clause which they're milking. That's a good point, maybe he can teleport there, but can't prison-break dead people on his own. I can't think of a situation where a living Goku has tried to grab somebody from the afterlife and brought them back to the living realm. The Freeza situation was unique, since he had King Yemma's permission and Baba to help aide him. Kanos posted:Yeah, that's what I mean. Goku actually went through the process instead of saying "Hey let's add Freeza to the team" and then teleporting to hell and bringing him back, which implies the process is actually necessary instead of instant transmission making you immune to being dead. We love to mock Goku for being dense, but he actually did something... somewhat intelligent here. Freeza hasn't turned his back on his teammates (yet), but he probably won't, since all the other universes are quickly losing their numbers. It remains to be seen if he'll try to team up with Frost and backstab his teammates, but my guess is that he'll think Frost is weak and not worthy of being on Team Freeza.

TheHan posted:Considering how fast SS3 burned out Gotenks, Gogeta Blue would split so fast it'd set off a chain reaction and vaporize everything in the resulting explosion. Definitely true on Earth, but I wonder if the "rules" work differently in the World of Void? Part of the reason the tournament was held there was so fighters could take advantage of the full extent of their powers. Plus, Whis is always indicating that Goku and Vegeta should work together, and that they'd be formidable if they teamed up. Fusing into Gogeta wouldn't break the rules, it's just a kind of technique. So assuming Vegeta and Goku have the stamina to maintain it, maybe they won't instantly split? If Gogeta doesn't happen, we might just get more aura-stacking from Goku. That's cool, too, but I wanna see Gogeta do that awesome move where he casually lifts off the ground, floats towards his opponent, and suddenly they've been hit by 100 attacks at once and they're full of huge dents in their body. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQoDh8-AKJc&t=9s
