I honestly forget a lot of the time that even this current incarnation of Buu is still stupid powerful

I've started thinking Mr. Buu is actually no, or not much, weaker than he was as full on Fat Buu.

Sure, Evil Buu had the lion's share of Buu's full power, but Buu's FULL power was Super Buu, which was being restrained by Dai Kaioshin's good nature. Super Buu is the exact same constituent parts with the only difference being the lack of Dai Kaishin holding them back. I figure Evil Buu's power was primarily the difference between Fat Buu and Super Buu, making him much stronger than Mr. Buu without actually reducing his power now that his evil side is gone.

The evil Buu never died, Buu is 100% immortal. Off-screen, after Goku disintegrated the Kid Buu, a pink mist cloud coagulated into the Fat Buu and reintegrated him.

Fat Buu does not act like all evil has been removed from him, he acts like the same spoiled child he was when he was released from that egg thing. The only difference is the Z-FIghters have replaced Babidi.

Buu should deliberately explode himself into thousands of tiny Buus. That way he can fight everyone at once, and you can only push a portion of him off the edge.

Buu should make a ton of copies, Piccolo should start spitting out eggs, Tien multiforms, Krillen and Goku do that go-fast multiform thing, just pure chaos out there.

Even Gohan - the most boring fighter - could pull some cool stuff off if they plan this out properly.

He'll probably try to impress his dad by straight brawling like always though.

As much as we like to think otherwise, spoiled children aren't evil.

Mr. Buu acts innocent, which is neither good nor evil. It's lacking the understanding of a good or evil. And where Buu does understand these things (killing is bad, for example) he doesn't choose evil.

He needs a good beating to teach him not to be a brat then.

He spent most of those millions of years trapped inside of a ball. Depending on how long Bibidi has him, Buu might literally have only been active for a couple of years at this point.

buu's full, unrestrained power was kid buu

I actually don't get how the evil/kid buu thing works. when they removed all of the people that buu'd eaten (including fat buu), why didn't he just go back to being evil buu?

Kid Buu was his original form. I'm not exactly sure how the stuff with the Kais he absorbed works since Fat Buu has existed forever thanks to the Grand Supreme Kai but Super Buu didn't stay in his South Supreme Kai form after Buu was removed.

Inaccurate. Kid Buu is the 2nd weakest Buu

Fat Buu = Kid Buu + South Kaioshin + Dai Kaioshin with Dai Kaioshin's good nature restraining his power.

Evil Buu = The lion's share of Fat Buu's power without Dai Kaioshin

Super Buu = Fat Buu without Dai Kaioshin's influence holding him back.

Mr. Buu = Fat Buu - Evil Buu. Basically Dai Kaioshin and some Buu stuff.

Buff Buu = Kid Buu + South Kaioshin

Kid Buu = Buu in his purest, weakest form.

it's not inaccurate, kid buu is the actual buu and the rest are just fusions of various things. that is his full power; he's not the strongest but that doesn't matter at all because the rest are adding other people into the equation

Grand Kai specifically made him weaker. Absorbing the South Supreme Kai made him stronger, when Super Buu regressed to Huge Buu, Goku pointed out his power went up, before he became Kid Buu.

It just occurred to me, when Buu absorbed Piccolo he became smarter, but when Buu absorbed the fat Dai Kaioshin he became retarded. I think this goes a long way in explaining why universe 7 has such a low mortal level.

But all the kais seem to be retarded.

And their bosses are uncaring monsters.

Perhaps "mortal level" is a bullshit metric.
