#

who

#

Yharim

hollow isle
#

yharim

sleek halo
#

Yharim in the last year has trained yeah

manic coral
#

yharim or xer- actually the answer is yes either way

sleek halo
#

For reference

#

the exo mechs strength are based on the last time here Yharim & Draedon met

manic coral
#

yeah

deft vessel
#

Continent, small continent. Pretty much the same thing

sleek halo
#

meaning in those few months

hollow isle
#

which was how long ago

manic coral
#

that was Draedon's goalpost for the exo mechs

sleek halo
#

Yharim has gained

sleek halo
#

a good deal of strength

mighty zenith
manic coral
#

that's anywhere from a 5x to 20x difference in strength

manic coral
hollow isle
#

oh thats all?? damn

sleek halo
#

st least enough to put a substantial difference between him and the exo mechs

manic coral
#

anywhere from a couple of months before the game

#

to a couple of years

sleek halo
#

months

manic coral
#

asusming both opponents are equally skilled in a fight

#

x2 stronger is enough to basically curbstomp your opponent

sleek halo
#

I see no reason for Draedon to be incorrect about the time frame lmao

deft vessel
manic coral
#

it's nto a matter fo remembering jsut a matter of

hollow isle
#

i guess i fail to understand how the power scale is as low as it is. don't we have a supermassive interdimensional snake that can rip open a hole to his home dimension and come out at will

manic coral
#

comapring the size of two continents

sleek halo
hollow isle
#

that sounds like some dragon ball shit and yet he's apparently nowhere near that

manic coral
#

it's just a portal

mighty zenith
#

yeah i dont think chell portal is multidimensional level tbh

hoary cape
#

He just opens a portal and comes through it closes right after

mighty zenith
#

just a hunch

manic coral
sleek halo
#

like

hollow isle
#

hmm i see

sleek halo
#

the most impressive use of a portal like that

hollow isle
#

sorry if i sound dumb im genuinely trying to wrap my head around it

mighty zenith
#

its oke

sleek halo
#

is Ceaseless Void

#

Because it just

#

doesn’t close

manic coral
#

i mean there is oen difining frame of reference

hollow isle
#

is void sentient or is it just a void

manic coral
#

calamitas evaporating like half a sea over the course of about 3-4 days

#

void is void

hollow isle
#

ok its an object

sleek halo
#

Which honestly

#

the most impressive thing is

#

her endurance LOL

#

or well stamina

mighty zenith
#

imagine she had to take breaks to drink water

sleek halo
#

She probably took breaks but they couldn’t have been that long

hollow isle
#

why did she do that again

mighty zenith
#

yharim

sleek halo
#

Yharim

manic coral
#

and like

sleek halo
#

Using her as a super weapon

mighty zenith
#

living nuke basically

sleek halo
hollow isle
#

does she have nuke level destructive power even

sleek halo
#

she’s like a living asteriod LOL

split mortar
#

Storm weaver is comparable to 8 megaton nukes iirc

manic coral
#

some people will go "city level characters are so weak :/" meanwhile the bomb dropped on hrishima is hardly city level

mighty zenith
#

powerscaling brainrot

sleek halo
mighty zenith
#

if its not interdimensional its weak

sleek halo
#

even imagine that

#

like imagininng a city being wiped out is hard

#

and also it doesn’t sound that impressive

#

like it’s just a “city” but like

manic coral
#

like i dunno i think the fact that yharim is comparable to a nuke with jsut pure physical might in terms of hitting power is pretty impressive imo

mighty zenith
#

way easier than imagining a universe being erased tbh

sleek halo
#

cities are big

hollow isle
#

i feel like people do forget how much stronger than any living being in the real world, a city level guy is

mighty zenith
manic coral
#

just large building level

sleek halo
#

Hell

#

wall level

#

Imagine seeing someone obliterate a fucking concrete wall

#

that’d be out of this world

manic coral
#

wall level already makes you stronger than pretty much everybody alive

hollow isle
#

being able to smack a building in one hit irl would be actually terrifying

mighty zenith
#

a regular-ass green slime could kill you in under a minute

sleek halo
#

A zombie would rock ur shit

hollow isle
#

id fuck up a green slime idc

sleek halo
split mortar
#

Yeah like
Killing king slime makes you a local legend

sleek halo
#

it hurts you

split mortar
hollow isle
#

ill concede that id lose to anything else

split mortar
#

Elaborate

sleek halo
#

u need to shoot it

hollow isle
#

im not losing to a green slime

manic coral
#

i feel like some people don't undersatnd how massive the jumps from normal human level to jsut wlal level is

sleek halo
#

with something

manic coral
#

or wall level to building level

manic coral
#

that's like

sleek halo
#

especially because being able to put out that much force

#

means u can take it

#

so if you punched a wall level dude

#

you just punched a fucking wall

#

your hand probably broke

#

LOL

manic coral
#

no wall level to building level is like

#

a power jump of around 100 times realistically

sleek halo
#

probably more

hollow isle
#

putting it in this perspective makes it all make a lot more sense

sleek halo
#

like

manic coral
sleek halo
#

for perspective

#

If someone like Yharim punched u

#

you would basically be atoms

manic coral
#

jsut being 2x stronger usually results in a curbstomp for that side

#

yeah

sleek halo
#

effectively just atoms

manic coral
#

that really puts things into perspective

sleek halo
#

there’d honestly be no gore LOL

#

you would just be

#

gone

#

like if a nuke hit you tier

hollow isle
#

like a nuke but it hits only specifically you

manic coral
#

people think of being able to atomize somebody with a punch as like planet level sometime sbut no realistically that'd be more like just city level or large town level

hollow isle
#

thats assuming the large town level individual is punching a regular human right

sleek halo
#

Touching auric would probably just

#

explode u

manic coral
#

most people really just don't realize how utterly MASSIVE the jumps from normal person to wall to building to city block to small town to large town to city to country to continent are

#

there is at least like a 100 times difference in strength in between all of those

split mortar
#

Touching Auric alone is prob
Uh
Stronger then most to all normal bombs made

small jay
#

-# sry to interrupt, but despite me peeking into this channel a lot this is probably the most headache-inducing topic I've seen so far

manic coral
#

fair

#

:p

hollow isle
#

thats what we do here in lore-discussion

#

we induce headaches

manic coral
#

is just something i see people complain about with cal sometimes and it's jsut like

#

????

manic coral
#

i don't think some people actually understand the implications of strength just being able to destroy a building in one punch has

hollow isle
#

i just think it would be funny if calamitas could throw hands with goku thats all

spring helm
#

i thought they were about the same

hollow isle
#

it def makes a lot more sense that thats not a thing

sleek halo
#

but tbf

#

think about this

#

calamitas can probably beat any living human ever

#

in a fist fight

#

LOL

hollow isle
#

like irl human?

#

yeah

sleek halo
#

yeah

hollow isle
#

not even close

#

0 diff

indigo glade
#

Brimstone punch.

manic coral
#

calamitas could beat anybody weaker than like ML in a fistfight

sleek halo
#

LOL

spring helm
#

wow

dusk laurel
#

Amazing

sleek halo
#

makes sense

split mortar
spring helm
#

there goes my headcanon

sleek halo
#

I mean tbf

#

if she couldn’t take any physical damage

indigo glade
#

Can magic be used to enhance one's physical prowess?

sleek halo
#

killing her would be

#

well

hollow isle
#

easy

sleek halo
#

reallt fucking easy

#

like she’d have been assassinated so quickly

manic coral
#

calamitas runs out of mana and gets mocked for not being able to do anything anymore but then she just starts throwing hands

sleek halo
#

i kinda imagine she doesn’t really run out of mana

#

she just

#

gets tired

wheat walrus
manic coral
#

yeha basically

hollow isle
#

she has the ethereal talisman guys!!!!!11!!11

sleek halo
#

she can could theoretically go on for probably weeks imo

#

if she didn’t have bodily functions to worry about

#

like eating food

#

or drinking water

#

or sleeping

manic coral
#

or sleeping

#

yeah

hollow isle
#

all jokes aside do the other human characters use equipment to enhance themselves too

manic coral
sleek halo
#

or mental shit

indigo glade
#

If the Incineration took multiple days, did she need to take a break to piss.

sleek halo
#

like using her magic for weeks would

#

fucking suck for her mentally

hollow isle
#

how has she not completely fucking lost it

split mortar
sleek halo
#

scal is probably one of the most

#

mentally strong individuals

indigo glade
sleek halo
#

Scal is her

manic coral
#

calclone had her pwoers for like a month and began to already lose it

indigo glade
#

Did the Ilmerans have toilets?

sleek halo
#

Yharim was put through less hell than her

#

And he’s a delusional maniac

#

LOL

manic coral
#

and devolved into a murder monster

hollow isle
#

clone is like giganerfed from actual cal tho isnt she

manic coral
#

over the course of like

sleek halo
#

yeah

manic coral
#

a year

manic coral
untold oracle
manic coral
#

it's jsut that

#

cloning cna replicate a body, yes

#

but not training

sleek halo
#

Ngl I think

hollow isle
#

ah ok so her base powers were similar but without any of the refinement she gained from experience

manic coral
#

calclone uses the same brimstone magic yes

sleek halo
#

if 99% of ppl were responsible fornkilling literally everyone they knew

#

they’d be mentally broken forever

manic coral
#

it's just not at all refined

eager bluff
#

aoe flush

untold oracle
manic coral
#

i like how you're jsut ignoring the more obvious solution here since ilmerians can live just fine on land

indigo glade
#

I meant

hollow isle

LMAO

indigo glade

in the kingdom.

eager bluff
manic coral
#

yes. which wasn't ENTIRELY submerged

eager bluff
manic coral

it has air pockets and aprts without water and stuff

sleek halo
#

probably the best teacher

manic coral
sleek halo
#

for the job

#

LOL

hollow isle
#

theory time

sleek halo
#

I cannot imagine a better teacher than Permafrost

indigo glade
hollow isle
#

what if permafrost trained clone

indigo glade
#

What.

sleek halo
#

Scal is probably worse than Permafrost at teaching brimstone magic ngl

manic coral
#

anywyas let's move on from this topic please

spring helm
sleek halo
#

also when to push and stop

#

signs of shit going wrong n whatnot

#

also just comforting

#

LOL

manic coral
#

yeha no permafrost is a fantastic teacher

sleek halo
#

unfortunately

#

Yharim

spring helm
#

still holding on to the deliquent Calamitas headcanon
she ruled the streets of Azafure, that's why she was the first to start boxing with Brimmy the moment she started destroying things

sleek halo
#

imagine how great of a life Scal could’ve had without the influence of Yharim

manic coral
spring helm
#

guh

manic coral
#

and still is too much of a nerd for that

spring helm
#

Cei you're killing me

manic coral
#

she mostly read books

sleek halo
eager bluff
#

without exclusively yharim or without having ever looked for him

manic coral
#

wasn't masively social

hollow isle
#

i mean she would still be hyper strong inherently wouldnt she

manic coral
eager bluff
indigo glade
#

Speaking of young Calamitas.

sleek halo
#

P sure she was found

hollow isle
#

are her powers not innate?

untold oracle
sleek halo
#

wouldn’t be hard to find

#

one of the only living ppl

at probably the epicenter

#

of the conflict

eager bluff
sleek halo

did she?

Wasn't it confirmed that Yharim sought out Cal

sleek halo
#

what child

hollow isle
#

when he makes sweet potatoes theyre called Yhams

sleek halo
#

would do so

#

Like no child is going to do that

#

especially not after a horrific conflict like that

manic coral
#

i mean when crags overhaul does happen

sleek halo
manic coral
#

there will be Crag Yams

#

.

dusk laurel
#

👁️

manic coral
#

shit maybe i should call them Crag Yhams

hollow isle
#

Yhams would go hard

sleek halo
#

you should

#

I could totally imagine Azafure changing it to that

#

as a way to show respect LOL

manic coral
#

and yharim just being like

#

"???????????????????????????? ok"

hollow isle
#

i think that would be great tbh

sleek halo
#

“As long as u continue doing what ur doing, idfc if u call them Yhams”

spring helm
#

the population keeps naming things after Yharim and he's just super confused because all he wants is the gods dead what the fuck are his people doing

eager bluff
# dusk laurel Wasn't it confirmed that Yharim sought out Cal

Prostrated in my court, garbed in charred rags as she trembled.
I could not grasp the unfathomable, raw power of the fell magics that coursed through her.
She could scant control it herself. Permafrost recognized this immediately. With a pained face, he counseled me to look after her.
i have a feeling perma wouldnt directly tell yharim "hey look after this kid" if yharim sought out the kid

manic coral

Godseeker knights

manic coral

that'd be like trying to call Greenland instead Red, White, and Blueland!

Sent out to check what the fuck happened

no way they don’t damn near immediately notice

indigo glade
manic coral

so true!

sleek halo
#

Azafure being just gone

spring helm
#

that's crazy

#

who would even do that

sleek halo
#

so true

manic coral
#

yeah who would EVER try to do both of those things

sleek halo
#

That would be childish and completely fucking redundant

#

manic coral
#

nobody would ever be stupid enough!

indigo glade
manic coral
#

those would be priorities that ANYBODY would question.

#

right??

#

right????????????

hollow isle
#

i'm sure it would never happen

manic coral
#

RIGHT?????????????????????????

indigo glade
#

Thankfully, everything we are talking about is fictional!

sleek halo

So true

manic coral

hollow isle

manic coral

eager bluff
#

greenland is owned by denmark but it has the legal right to declare independence at any time

indigo glade
#

Territory of Denmark. Despite that, they treat it like its own country for the most part.

at all

manic coral

but just something ppl use

easier to say than

it's jsut a title

wheat walrus
#

Ok ok

split mortar
sleek halo
#

“The continent ur on”

manic coral

not a name

wheat walrus

Heartlands is a cool name tbf

#

Frieza is cool but Cell is literlaly the culmination fo consequences from the ENTIRE series up until him

wheat walrus
#

Peak arc and guy is just cool

manic coral
#

Cell is literally and physically part of everybody, both having their DNA and inheriting all of their most sinister and toxic traits

#

Cell is a mirror for all of the main characters

#

and while Frieza is cool

#

that's cooler imo

shell jewel
#

maybe a strange thing to ask, first it seems calamity didnt change the bestiary for all the vanilla bosses, if this is fully correct does those information conflicting the calamity official lore ?(didnt find a full answer in chat history on my side )

sleek halo
#

Also Imperfect Cell is

#

#

design wise smei perfect cell is fairly cool imo

#

2nd form frieza vibes

sleek halo
#

Though it is honestly kinda cathartic

#

To watch him give vegeta hell

#

I’d say though semi perfect is my least favorite of the 3 by far

manic coral
#

imperfect cell is for sure my 2nd favorite form since the whole concept is cool

#

imperfect cell is baiscally a slasher villian

sleek halo
#

yah

#

And perfect cell is jsut wonderful

#

just don’t watch him in the dub if u want him to be intimidating lol

#

he sounds too much like plankton for me

split mortar
#

-# mandatory abridged mention, idk if it is mandatory but it has been mentioned

sleek halo
#

abridged cell is great

spring helm
#

i like how Cell's voice in the dub changes as he transforms

#

it stays the same the whole way through in the original japanese

sleek halo
#

yeah I do like that

#

just

manic coral
#

unless we're tlaking the english kai dub

#

thats fine

sleek halo
#

I meant the uh

#

Just basically his voice

#

it’s too much like plankton

#

not his fault just

manic coral
#

ok but let's be real most OG dub voices are kinda just goofy

sleek halo
#

it’s fucking plankton

#

like perfect cell is about to steal the krusty krab formula

instead of having both goku and vegeta's voice at the same time they had vegeta's va do a an impression of goku

sleek halo
#

is the only fucking time

#

it did anything

#

ever

#

in canon media

#

coolest one too!

#

but other than that, it has done a grand total

#

of fuck all

#

LOL

manic coral
#

"yeha Final Flash is the strongest single beam in the saga"

sleek halo
#

Makes sese

#

it damn newr 1 shot cell

#

he had to dodge

manic coral
#

yeah

minor moon
#

Lore discussion to dragon ball, peak channel ngl

manic coral
#

If cell didnt dodge last second

#

thats it

#

it would have been over

spring helm
#

i find that so stupid tbh

sleek halo
split mortar
sleek halo
#

Gohan’s

manic coral
sleek halo
#

true

spring helm
#

like Goku gaps Vegeta so hard after training in the HTC and the final flash is still stronger?

sleek halo
#

Final flash took literal minutes

manic coral
#

dont worry this is a semi-regular occurence becuase i am autistic and i like dragon ball

sleek halo
#

to charge up

#

lol

spring helm
#

in the anime maybe

#

not that long in the manga

sleek halo
#

I mean it’s also basically Vegeta literally putting

#

every last drop of energy

#

into it

manic coral
spring helm
deft vessel
#

so sad, Cei is gonna get banned for off topicclueless

manic coral
#

and also Goku after HTC isn't that much stronger than Vegeta

sleek halo
#

I would say he is

manic coral
#

the difference is how well Goku can control his power mastering the super saiyan form

spring helm
#

okay well what about Gohan's Kamehameha

sleek halo
#

Gohan put like 2 seconds

#

LOL

#

he literally waited last second

#

he just power diffed cell that badly

spring helm
#

not that one lol the one against Cell's solar kamehameha

#

the last one

sleek halo
#

he had help from vegeta iirc

#

at least in the manga

manic coral
#

yeah vegeta's distraction is the only reason Gohan managed to overpower Cell

sleek halo
#

but tbf, it doesn’t really matter because well

#

It’s not like Vegata can ever pull off a strong final flash

#

without an opponent just

#

standing there

#

LOL

manic coral
#

which i like how the manga handles that way better, vegeta helping instead of everybody at once just solely because

#

it's way more poetic that way

#

since Perfect Cell is Vegeta's fault

sleek halo
#

Yeah

manic coral
#

and don't give me "oh it was equally Krillin's fault" no it was not Krillin had an actual ethical dillema on hand about killing a so far innocent person.

#

vegeta did what he did for shits and giggles.

sleek halo
#

Krillin could’ve at least held onto it…

manic coral
#

more like 30 - 70 imo

sleek halo
#

Like incase the absolute worst happens

manic coral
#

ok no

sleek halo
#

better than literally everyone dying

manic coral
#

25 - 70 - 5

#

the last five is Trunks

sleek halo
#

tu

manic coral
#

He totally could ahve chosen to jsut blow up 18

sleek halo
#

Yeah

#

Especially cause he gives 0 fucks about her LOL

manic coral
#

25% krillin's fualt, 70% vegeta's fault, and 5% trunks' fault

halcyon raft
#

lowkey if krillin hadn't bagged 18

#

he would've been the most hated character of all time

#

bro would've fumbled a baddie and the lives of all of humanity

manic coral
#

i love krillin he's a great character

sleek halo
#

i dislike him and 18’s romantic shit cause well

#

Toryiama is bad at setting it up

manic coral
#

he's a normal human on ground zero of stuff more often than GOKU is

sleek halo
#

he didn’t do a good job

#

p sure he admitted that too

halcyon raft
manic coral
#

he's just a normal human really trying his best

sleek halo
#

it was so underdeveloped

halcyon raft
sleek halo
#

yeah I mean

halcyon raft
sleek halo
#

Krillin is great

manic coral
#

one of those cases being 16, 17, and 18

halcyon raft
manic coral
#

they absolutely wrote that trio better

sleek halo
#

yeah

#

psure thee issuebis

#

the editors

#

being

#

on toriyamas

#

ass

halcyon raft
sleek halo
#

during that arc

#

Cell was not planned

halcyon raft
sleek halo
#

the androids

#

were not planned

manic coral
#

tbh i honestly think that

#

if they weren't

#

we wouldn't have gotten as good of a story

sleek halo
#

yeah

manic coral
#

i fudnemtnally think most of the decisiosn that WERE made were the correct ones

sleek halo
#

the issue is that he wasn’t prepared for a lot of it lol

manic coral
#

even if, yeah

#

that

sleek halo
#

so characters like them

#

suffered

#

badly

manic coral
#

i think namek is the consistently better saga but the the whole adnrorid saga has the better peaks imo

#

though i will say

#

quite honestly?

#

a take that'd be me burned at the stake by most dragon ball fans

sleek halo
#

and the final season was fucking

#

good

#

really good

#

but mannnnn

#

until late namek it was pretty damn rough LOL

manic coral
#

meh

#

probably the part of Z i care the least for

#

it's entirely whatever imo

sleek halo
#

I dislike it a lot cause

#

man

manic coral
#

i dunno it jsut feels kinda boring to me

sleek halo
#

It was so much

#

waiting

manic coral
#

i wish Jeice and Burta got used more

sleek halo
#

real

manic coral
#

Jeice is my favorite Ginyu Force member though too so

sleek halo
#

worst part imo about namek

#

well not the worst worst part

#

but

#

powerlevels

#

holy fuck

#

powerlevels

manic coral
#

ok

sleek halo
#

thank god they were dropped

manic coral
#

it was fine until Goku arrived on Namek

#

then it all went to shit

sleek halo
#

I dislike it because well

#

it effectively means anyone with a higher power level

#

wins

#

goku vs vegeta was peak because he had a way to close that gap

manic coral
#

and when it was a more skilled fighter vs. a less skilled but stronger fighter

#

it became elss iotneresting because oh. ok. ginyu is as equally skilled of a fighter as goku.

#

or well

#

not quite but

#

still damn skilled

manic coral
#

and then YEAH

#

it jsut does that but

sleek halo
#

literally goku could do

#

NOTHING

manic coral
#

ok to be fair

#

he did do shit

sleek halo
#

because 3 million compared to 60,000,000 is literally nothing

manic coral
#

it wasnt 3 million actually

sleek halo
#

what was it?

manic coral
#

was it was but wasn't

#

ok so a reveal that wasnt handled well in the anime due to hwo the anime did kaioken

#

Goku was using Kaioken x10 the whole time to keep himself in the fight

sleek halo
#

yeah

manic coral
#

which is onyl revealed right before the spirit bomb

#

though even though goku goes from 90,000 to 3,000,000 ven thoguh that a fucking stupid ass jump

#

at least there's an epxlaination

#

.

sleek halo
#

strongest zenkai boost in fucking history

manic coral
#

Vegeta takes a nap some goes from slightly stronher than Ginyu to auaring up vs. 1st fomr frieza

#

there is 0 explaination for that one

sleek halo
manic coral
#

but yeah like

#

Ginyu is where pwoer levels really went wrong

sleek halo
#

yeah

manic coral
#

the climb up until him speicfically is acceptable

sleek halo
#

It was cool when frieza went second form and the number was lkke

#

intimidiating

spring helm
#

power level gaps are so inconsistent

sleek halo
#

and then back to straight dogshit

manic coral
#

right before him the stronegst is like 50k with fairly gradual growth

#

so reasonably i could see him being like 60k or 65k

#

.

#

not fucking 120k

#

ginyu is where this REALLY started being an issue

sleek halo
#

yeah

manic coral
#

and then fireza is 530k in 1st for becuase yes

#

and then 1 million and 2 million and then oh hey logically by this logic it'll be 4 million for final form right?

#

no

split mortar
#

120

sleek halo
#

60,000,000 seems like a logical jump

manic coral
#

thats where the kinda notable ssue turns into an actual problem

spring helm
#

goku was like 50% stronger than nappa but had more difficulty finishing him off that Vegeta did with Cui even though the gap between Vegeta and Cui is relatively smaller

#

whack

manic coral
#

ok like

#

here's how i think it could have gone

sleek halo
#

is the main thing

spring helm
#

no but he was trying to put him down

manic coral
#

make ginyu 65k

#

make first form frieza 125k

sleek halo
#

Vegeta just fucking exploded Cui LOL

manic coral
#

2nd for 250,000

#

3rd 500,000

#

and THEN have final form be the "1 million" reveal

sleek halo
manic coral
#

shut

spring helm
#

he also had to go use kaioken to catch up to Nappa which is kind of nuts

manic coral
#

tbf nappa was closer

sleek halo
#

I think personally

#

it all would’ve just been better off

#

without powerlevels

manic coral
#

oh for sure

sleek halo
#

But u could definitely make it work

manic coral
sleek halo
#

I think the simplest explanation for why Toriyama went that high is simply because

#

big number make brain go

#

woohoo

manic coral
#

also super saiyan being x50 according to that one daizenchu guidebook just feels like bullshit

manic coral
#

it is NEVER, EVER treated as a QUARTER of being that strong of a boost

sleek halo
#

it makes the characters as strong as he needs them

manic coral
#

yeah

spring helm
#

toriyama had even stated before that it's more like a 10 times

sleek halo
#

like realistically if goku is like

manic coral
#

yeah

sleek halo
#

struggling against someone

manic coral
#

10 times is WAY more reasonable

sleek halo
#

super saiyan should be an effective instant win

#

unless they’re literally blitzing and demolishing him

spring helm
#

the 50x is never stated in-universe, and is something that was calculated because of the powerlevels

sleek halo
#

super saiyan should never even a fight

split mortar
#

Wait is super saiyan 2 being 100x also bs and its closer to like
20-30 story wise

sleek halo
#

it shouldnjust

manic coral
#

also i do like SSJ2 being 2x SSJ! and SSJ3 being 4x SSJ2, making SSJ#

spring helm
#

surprise surprise powerlevels were the problem

sleek halo
#

be onsided

manic coral
#

literally

#

to the power of three

sleek halo
#

SSJ2 honestly felt

#

so much much much

#

stronger

#

like Gohan went from

#

literally cannot contend with cell

#

to

#

2 shotting him

manic coral
#

Oh no Gohan absolutely could

sleek halo
#

well more like

manic coral
#

Gohan durign the cell games was stronger than Goku was

sleek halo
#

it was not in gohans favor

manic coral
#

somethign explicitly stated twice

sleek halo
#

because well

#

he’s not a great fighter

#

unlike his dad

spring helm
#

he's not bad

manic coral
#

but also it wasn't just SSJ2

sleek halo
#

Rage boosted ssj2

split mortar
#

So it could make sense as a 100x?

sleek halo
#

lol

manic coral
#

WITH SSJ2

spring helm
#

the whole problem was that gohan didnt even want to throw a punch

sleek halo
#

only

#

reason

manic coral
sleek halo
#

It makes sense Gohan could contend with a Zenkai boosted Perfect Cell LOL

manic coral
#

"damn he could actually give me trouble"

sleek halo
#

Based on how much stronger

#

Zenkais make you

manic coral
#

the senzu bean

indigo glade
#

Drag on these balls, am I right?

spring helm
manic coral
#

otherwise Cell probably would ahve jsut

#

paniced and blown up the planet or smth

#

if he started losing

spring helm
#

which he did

#

lol

manic coral
#

which agaisnt an SSJ1 gohan who actually wnated to fight

#

he MIGHT HAVE

#

i could see SSJ1 Gohan winning that fight against a fairly exhuasted Perfect Cell

spring helm
#

yeah i can see that too

#

even though Goku was weaker than Cell he was still putting up a decent fight

sleek halo
manic coral
#

speakign of the cell games i will say

#

something Z does that Super, as much as i do like it still, does fail at

sleek halo
#

It’s pretty fair to say Goku might’ve unironically been stronger

#

than Perfect Cell

#

or at least tied

manic coral
#

somebody aiming a beam at the ground is always treated to utmost panic

sleek halo
#

Or only very slightly weaker

spring helm
#

broly lmao

manic coral
#

nah CEll was def the stronger opponent

spring helm
#

excellent ki control for someone who has succumbed to rage

sleek halo
#

Like they were pretty damn equal

manic coral
#

we see him actually power up to full against SS2 Gohan later

sleek halo
#

and Goku definitely was more skilled

manic coral
#

He purposefully pwoered himself dwon a bit to make it fairly even with Goku

sleek halo
#

Did he?

#

I might be crazy

manic coral
#

i wouldn't say by a LOT

sleek halo
#

it’s been a long tkme

manic coral
#

i'd say Cell fighting Goku was still at like

#

70%

#

75%

#

aroudn that ballpark

#

Goku was clearly pushing cell somewhat regardless

sleek halo
#

would brutalize Cell

#

in like 3 seconds

#

LOL

#

brother would be cooked

#

unfathomably cooked

spring helm
#

i was referring to when Cei was talking about aiming beams at the ground

sleek halo
#

ic..

#

imm so blind

manic coral
#

yeah as said Super treats that way less seriously which i find sad

#

i did appricate how seriously that was treated in Z

#

it was a nice consideration that

#

oh shit

#

these are actually planet destroying beams

split mortar
#

Acknowledged people could blow up the planet

sleek halo
manic coral
#

even Vegeta jsut doing final flash near the ground, Trunks and Krillin are afraid that it's gonna blow up earth

spring helm
#

idk if i can send videos here but i'll try anyway

sleek halo
#

real

#

so fucking real

split mortar
#

How strong the brocoli compard to majin buu

spring helm
#

a lot

sleek halo
#

I remember when even Cell was like
