Isn't Gast impossible too based on some arcane rule of Namekian fusion most people forget about? I seem to recall only warrior types being able to fuse or something, though I can't remember where or when I saw that.

It's dumb, but I kinda want an arc where ~100 saiyans that were off subduing a planet somewhere when Planet Vegita got exploded heard that there were some strong Saiyans on Earth, and came to either collect them into the last tribe of Saiyans, or kill them as traitors. But they're all ~S1 Vegita strength.

People just to fight them and be done with it, but Vegita insists that since they can't kill them all (and genocide the Saiyan race), they also can't let them find out about Super Saiyan, or they'd all start going SS, and might end up actually being a problem.

So they have to fight them in base forms only, and end up needing everyone's help. Yamcha, Krillin, everyone.

Basically, an arc where Vegita can truly press his claim to be Prince of all Saiyans, and we get to see the old squad in action again.

base vegeta was like way stronger than the average saiyan and generic frieza goons were stronger than him. you'd just have the beat down from the beginning of rof if a bunch of rando saiyans came in. I bet krillin could take them by himself

I don't think so. This was just at a bookstore and not a GUNDAM EMPORIUM so the selection was limited.

They sped up the fight scene animation in the last episode and I just wanted to say how enjoyable and out of place it was, drat near movie quality there.

How many victories has Goku actually had in Super?

He beat that one alien that was threatening Hercule, uh he beat Botamo, he beat Zamasu in that sparring match... He had to cheat to get the killshot on Frieza but maybe we could count that I guess. Is that it?

He won against the fake Vegeta thing in that one miniarc that no one cares about. It wasn't really a legit win though since Monaka (I think?) stepped on his core and made him vulnerable though.

Goku's wins are pretty limited in general after Dragonball to be honest.

He beats Nappa, Recoom, Berta and Frieza and then I don't think he wins a fight until the dude who absorbs light in the Buu saga.

dbz's pretty good about making it not a one man show usually; even when goku wins a fight, it's rarely by himself. dragon ball classic was more about goku winning all day, every day but even there he actually lost 2/3 tournaments in the grand finals

If it's anything like the rest of the series Vegeta is stronger than Goku if they were both fighting at an equal level but Goku has access to dangerous techniques which massively boost his overall power. That's pretty much been the status quo for the entire franchise except for the brief period where Vegeta still had his tail.

vegeta is often stronger than goku and the only character in the series that can consistently outpace him. he just only ever focuses on when goku overtakes him again

maybe watch some of the slice of life stuff if that interests you but the plot is just a rehash of the movies with worse animation, so

There's a few inbetween eps (I think episode 15?) that are pretty fun at least, but you can skip the rest without really missing anything.

-Episodes 1 and 2 are slice-of-life. Worth a watch.
-Episodes 3 to 14 included are the Battle of Gods adaptation. Skip, since you already watched the superior movie.
-Episodes 15 to 18 are slice-of-life/preparation for Resurrection "F". They contain Satan and Pan, who are great, so you should watch them.
-Episodes 19 to 27 are the Resurrection "F" adaptation. While overall better than the movie, it can be skipped if you watched it, the changes don't affect anything going forward.

Afterwards it's all new-content, so you can watch 1, 2, 15, 16, 17, 18; and then from 28 onwards. You won't be confused, the adaptations added little in terms of overall plot.

The lesson here is that whenever Vegeta surpasses Goku, he does something to make it completely meaningless five minutes later.

Well he already ate Kami so he may as well eat the evil half of King Piccolo.
