MastG posted:Why do aliens have such a boner for Gohan? Piccolo got so attached he stopped being evil, Dende might as well be Gohan's little brother, and Supreme Kai for no adequately explored reason decided Gohan was so amazing that he'd be the savior of the universe. Gohan was stronger than literally everyone currently active in the universe by the time he was eleven. That's a pretty loving good reason.

Flippinlikebirds posted:At that point Goku had died himself. He had seen that the afterlife was not that bad and he had come back to life. I could see it being hard to care about people dying after that. He still later get's pretty upset about Krillin's death on Namek though. Maybe Goku only likes Krillin. At that point as far as Goku knew Piccolo was more or less going to die and the Dragon Balls were about to be gone for good. Krillin's death at that time was the closest death gets in this series to being very real and final.

Because you see the pink god aura up against frieza's at one point without the golden hair etc. The god form actually raised his base power level to be almost as high as when he's transformed, so there's not actually a huge amount of difference.

Momomo posted:So why does it seem like Freiza is always the go-to villain when it comes to DBZ? I've never really thought of him as the most significant or most important, so did Japanese fans just latch onto him or something? Dude has his own heavy metal song. Frieza was built up for an entire arc as being preposterously strong, whose power and influence were on a scale completely removed from anyone in the series up to that point, and when they finally fought him he lived up to it and then some. Cell was the last in a villain bait-and-switch, and Majin Buu's more powerful but not really more intimidating or sinister looking. And unlike Piccolo or Vegeta, Goku never overpowered him during the fight. It took literally everyone working together for Goku to land what was at that time the largest energy attack in the whole series on Frieza. And then he shrugged it off, blew a hole in Piccolo's chest, and killed Krillin, which at the time looked to be for good. So basically it comes down to him being monumentally stronger than anyone that came before, and having his shtick copied by anyone that came after.

I just realized, Frieza got chumped hard by Trunks but outside of that he's never been treated as anything less than a big deal by anything Toriyama did, right? It's all the Toei parts where he gets poo poo on? E: Even in Battle of Gods, Beerus does a double-take when he's told someone actually killed Frieza.

Covok posted:I think the Trunks chumping Freeza thing was to establish that the Androids were a HUGE threat as someone who could defeat Freeza could not defeat the Androids. Yeah, everyone there not named Trunks was essentially making GBS threads themselves at the thought of Frieza right on their front door, especially with Goku not around at the time. Which makes me think Toriyama might not have him get beaten down by everyone from Yamcha to Krillin in the new movie. Besides, even if Frieza was only as strong as he used to be that would still make him someone who could blow up Earth that has a serious vendetta against pretty much a quarter of the main cast. Speaking of Trunks though, I hope they have him interact with Frieza a little bit, seems like something great could come out of that.

Esroc posted:I always found it funny that the big threat was cyborgs, but Freeza was also a cyborg at that point and this was never even mentioned. Which means tech an old man cobbled together in a cave is somehow more advanced than what a Galaxy spanning empire controlled by the most powerful non-God in the Universe has at their disposal. I think Frieza came back as a cyborg for this exact reason, though.

MonsterEnvy posted:I should note that Beerus (Who is a pretty good judge for stuff like this.) Said that he seriously doubted that Goku could have beaten Freeza in his base form when they first met. To be fair that was with Goku at about as low as he could go without being weakened somehow. If they pull something like Frieza just not using his final form on Namek the new movie can go gently caress itself though

e X posted:Again. Honestly, I complete agree that transformation got incredible stale after SSJ, but Toriyama replaced it with he one gimmick that was actually more played out by that point. Gohan having more power to use will never ever get stale. I'd love it if the next movie just had someone go "nope turns out Gohan's still got more energy left to bring out" and then bam he's stronger than God Goku.

Esroc posted:Ah. So that's the convoluted deus ex machina they'll use to make Freeza a threat. Give him a new form and then gimp the other characters by taking away one of the coolest aspects of the entire show. Goku's base form at this point is head and shoulders above where Frieza was or even the strongest Super Saiyan form he had available, since he kept most of the god power.

He just observed that Beerus isn't really that visually intimidating, which is... honestly, true. It's mostly the writing and the fight scenes that sell him as a bad motherfucker.

SALT CURES HAM posted:Also, visual intimidation isn't just "URRRGHH MORE MUSCLES *flex* *flex*", all those were legit scary looking. Beerus is a scary motherfucker, yeah, but he just looks like a skinny catman until he starts beating on people. Beerus design still looks pretty creepy, which really isn't a DBZ thing often outside 1st form Cell.
