That's one of the big benefits of having God Ki; energy blasts don't do a drat thing except create a colorful dust storm. It happened when Vegeta shot that gently caress-off blast to Beerus, it happened when Frieza fired off a volley strong enough to nuke a planet at Goku; both completely unphased by it.

It just doesn't work period. If you're juicing on God Ki and you fire a blast, that's another story...

This is also why I'd say Golden Frieza couldn't kill Buu when you think about it; it took an entire planets worth of life forms to pony up the energy needed to decimate Buu, something not possible to manufacture from a single fighter.

Unless Frieza's got a Spirit Bomb technique, he's gonna have to rely on blunt contact force to get the job done

Golden Frieza is able to go toe to toe with SSB Goku. We know this version of Goku is at or above Vegetto since that was the strongest Z era fighter and it was plainly stated that Vegetto wouldn't be enough to fight Beerus while SSB is.

Vegetto clowned the strongest version of Buu and could have killed him at pretty much any time. There is no reason to think that golden Frieza would be unable to kill Buu excepting absorbion on Buu's part.

Can Gohan gain back his power from the Buu saga again? Sure it was painfully boring, but standing in a circle for a couple of days beats training for ten years.

I think he passed on his power to Pan right? Does that mean he's done or can he bounce back?

he just got weaker because he went full nerd and stopped training. I seem to recall the manga saying that when he fought dabura, gohan was weaker than when he beat cell

he only ever trained when people threw him at mountains really

Future Trunks, Trunks and Gohan are pretty good examples of the pros and cons of half saiyan/earthling offspring.

Huge potential for growth, especially in how fast they can pick stuff up, but it's much harder for them to stay motivated to improve. Future Trunks is what a half saiyan could be if they stayed dedicated, Gohan and kid Trunks are what happen when the challenges disappear.

That is because Krillin has already hit the peak. He's the strongest member of his race, married, has a steady job and can call on his best friend the Strongest Guy Around to kill poo poo if it gets too serious.

Considering when Resurrection "F" happens, Trunks is most likely twice that.

This also makes him as old as the other Trunks when Gohan died, yet he looks much younger. Not living in the apocalypse does wonders for your health.

He goes crazy when he dies but they rarely hang out or know much about each other's lives. That's not friendship.

They're colleagues/childhood acquaintances, and Goku is brain-damaged. If Goku had a puppy and Frieza/Piccolo's minion killed it, you'd get a similar response. They took something weak that Goku thinks belongs to him.

gohan's deal is that he doesn't really care about fighting, he doesn't feel the ~thrill of the challenge~ or whatever

it's also why when he's genuinely pissed he's extremely blunt and straightforward. just "I'm going to kill you"

it makes him interesting but it also means he gets nerfed every arc
