the only person zarbull should be presenting any kind of challenge to by the time rof takes place is master roshi

tho speaking of that, it's still pretty funny that they say yamcha isn't up to the challenge but bring roshi along to fight. it was nice seeing him be useful again

No he should be given the human characters a run for this money. Krillen was never stronger than zarbon . Tien is kind of debatable.

Zarbon was stronger than Krillin in the Frieza Saga for sure, but he's spent years training since then and even held his own against Imperfect Cell for a few minutes, current Krillin would have eaten Zarbon for breakfast. Deliberately stating this guy 'is as strong as that henchman who died like a decade ago' remains an absolutely baffling decision

Krillin was able to hurt Imperfect Cell, of course he got stronger.

This was filler, but it'd be retarded if Krillin would be weaker than Zarbon at this point of time. "Two beings stronger than Freeza will come in 3 years - well I guess I can't even beat one of his ridiculously weaker henchmen, but by golly I'll join the fight anyway"

To be more accurate, it's possible Kriller never got stronger than Freeza. Tien did, in theory, but Tien is a training machine that thinks its human.

Also having seen Revival of F now

I love that Goku thinks its at all a good idea to tell Freeza to go off and train some more, when Freeza barely putting ANY effort into training for just 4 months made him the third most powerful entity in the entire DBZ universe so far. He just hosed up the endurance part again.

That's why Krillin was cool though. He always tried to help, even if he was never relatively strong.

This is exactly why Goku thinks it is though. He isn't thinking "Freeza is a threat to the entire universe", he's thinking "man, this dude is freakin' strong, he'll be one hell of a rival!". It's the same thought process he had when he stopped Krillin from killing Vegeta, he knows fully well how dangerous it is but STRONG FIGHTS are before saving the world in Goku's priority list.

I'm glad he gets shot for it.

I've always wondered if Goku would do the same thing vegeta did if he managed to get to imperfect cell first. On the other hand, he didn't want to fight vegeta as it would release majin buu, so I dunno what his policy is regarding strong opponents.

I feel like actually letting 18 get absorbed would be going too far for Goku, morally.

I'm pretty sure that Goku wouldn't go that far. He wouldn't let Frieza blow up the Earth just so he can train and fight him stronger later or whatever.

Don't be silly, Goku isn't getting a character arc: Frieza is. He'll keep turning up more and more powerful, but always a step behind Goku and ending up helping him for plot reasons. By the end of Super, Frieza will be the new Vegeta, Vegeta will be the new Picollo, Picollo will be the new Tien, Tien will be the new Yamcha and Yamcha will be the new Lunch.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

How could Krillin be considered the strongest human if the man who saved the world from both Buu and Cell is a human?

Mr Satan is a good character and he plays an important role in finishing Buu, but you do him a disservice by playing him up as the meme :razz: Savior of Earth :iamafag: as his role in the Cell Saga is solely that of Extremely Lame comic relief

I mean, he basically pays Goku's family to let people think that he stopped Buu.

Which is really great because I don't think either Goku or Vegeta(and the Briefs) particularly want reporters snooping around them, so they'd let him say he did it for free.

I honestly take it more as being that Satan is a cool guy and they're kinda buds now after Buu and also their kids getting hitched, so Satan is doing Goku's family a solid. (With the added bonus of them keeping quiet.)
