To be fair, though, as much as I love him, what was Krillin ever going to do against Brolly?

He could have easily beaten Broly. He just had to float into the sky and use Solar Flare.

A blinded Broly flies up in the sky, enraged and trying to kill Krillin. Krillin floats out of the way, and Broly just keeps charging through sky, and then space, and then straight into the Sun. Broly then burns alive.

Flawless victory.

Alright DBZ thread I have a very important question.

Is Krillin better with hair, or without hair?

Thread's power level is now as strong as awakened Krillin, so here's the only fight that was relevant in.

Krillin vs. Imperfect Cell is an underrated fight IMO, as brief as it is.

Hahaha, why does he grab the plane, can't he fly on his own faster than that?

How far into the cell saga is that? Is it before or after Cell has absorbed a bunch of (normal) people? Because I think Cell after absorbing thousands of people is stronger than 17 and 18, and it would be surprising for Krillin to be able to put up a fight against an opponent like that.

I know Cell had absorbed a decent number of people at that point, but I can't remember how many more he absorbed after first meeting Piccolo but before absorbing 17.

It would certainly be an excuse to bring in Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Vegito down the line, if they really wanted to.

Personally I'm not sure I like what the manga did because now there's no drawback to using the Potara Earrings.

I'm pretty into the idea of defusing KibitoKai. I liked Kibito.

Super seems to be capping off plot points from the Buu saga it seems. Between Vegeta finally taking Trunks to the park in the anime, the defusion, and to a degree even King Kai complaining about never getting wished back to life we seem to be getting callbacks to everything except Uub.

Dude you just need to train more. No need to involve mountains, unless you're running up them Rocky IV style. In that case involve mountains and good 80's music.

Even if killing Kid Buu ultimately amounted to just Goku throwing the Spirit Bomb, it still took quite a bit of clever strategizing from Vegeta (Traits from him we hadn't seen since his pre-Frieza battle days on Namek) to ultimately set it up as well as Hercule helping in a neat way.

I genuinely thought people were over stating it until i went and rewatched the unabrdiged Freeza fight a while back, it's seriously fatiguing to listen to.

Yeah, you don't really realize how much ever-present the Faulconer score was until you go back and watch a few episodes now that you're not eight years old.

I had the same reaction when I went back to watch the original Star Wars about a year ago. They're playing music all the god drat time in that movie.

I wonder what they'll do for a Xenoverse sequel story. Will the they start covering Dragon Ball Super? Do Raditz to Buu + extra stuff again but with more wacky changes? Go back to the original Dragon Ball and have wacky changes there? Or maybe a purely original story?

Future Gohan was cool, but effective he wasn't. He lied to Trunks and then went and got killed for nothing.

That was a sort of ridiculous plot point in RoF. If Freeza could surpass every DBZ enemy they'd ever faced and almost match Goku at his most powerful thus far after only a couple months of training then Freeza is simply broken as a character. A year of training would make him Whis levels of power. So by the logic of that movie Freeza is literally the most powerful being in existence, at least potentially.

RoF, much like many other DBZ stories, is about arrogance. Frieza assumed that simply because he had the potential to be most powerful being in existence that he currently was after minimal amounts of training. He would probably be stronger than Goku had he gotten a grasp on his Golden Form, but he didn't, and that fact was exploited against him.

I absolutely love Shin Budokai with all my heart, but it angered me so much when it teased Yamcha and Tenshinhan fusing again...and then Tenshinhan just shoots that idea down hard and it never happens.

Hell, no game ever after Budokai 2 has used Yamhan, not even Budokai 3 that cut all the What-If stuff for reasons I fail to understand.

I love Budokai 3 but it has some definite weirdness. It has probably the most bizarre implementation of achieving Super Saiyan 4 ever.

Turns out there was actually a far more involved storyline for that in the voice files! It involved Vegeta wishing back Goku's tail, then wishing the Earth over to them to simulate a full moon, in order to defeat Kid Buu.

All characters were actually planned to have their own storymodes, actually. Kid Goku's was the most complete/bizarre, if memory serves right. It involved time machines and Broly.

Oh yeah...I vaguely remember hearing about that now. Sounds a lot cooler than what we got.

The Kid Goku/Broly thing explains why they're still sort of connected in the final product. I always thought it was weird you could unlock Kid Goku in Broly's story mode.

I don't think you can grant Kid Buu just to Goku. He may have launched the actual Spirit Bomb, but couldn't have set it up without Vegeta and Satan's help.

Well Goku does have a point that people can't just rely on him. That's partially why mostly everyone was killed in the variations of the Future Trunks timelines, where Goku died permanently way earlier than anyone expected, and before his friends were anywhere near his level.

Actually, the most likely explanation is that Boss Rabbit/Monster Carrot turned Goku into a carrot and ate him. With Goku no longer around to save the world, Pilaf and the Red Ribbon Army go to war with each other and destroy the planet in the process.
