>dude, that warrior class / dragon class has never been mentioned in the series that is something that was made up.
They were mentioned by Guru lol. Warrior class Nameks can't create Dragon Balls, i.e that's why once Piccolo Jr merged together with kami he couldn't create a new set of dragon balls, and why Dende was brought into the picture as the new guardian. If the classes didn't exist all Namekians would be able to create dragon balls which they can't do if they could Dende wasn't needed since piccolo merged with Kami would be able to create his own set of dragon balls. now, this might sound tricky, but it' because of how Nameks create their offspring. The nameless Namek was a dragon class prodigy which was said by Guru in the Namek saga. After splitting himself both Kami and King Piccolo were still considered dragon Class namekian, King Piccolo was just evil and went against the naturally peaceful nature the dragon class had. When King Piccolo created Piccolo Jr before his death, he made Piccolo Jr a Warrior class namekian, that's why he was so much stronger then Demon King Piccolo. Once Piccolo Jr fused with Nail that solidified his status as a warrior class namekian. When Kami and Piccolo Jr remerged together they mixed the classes making Piccolo Jr the only hybrid of both classes. But once they merged together the old dragon balls became useless. Warrior class Namekians have a different physical build than the dragon-class Namekians. They are taller and much more muscular as well as have keen fighting senses and abilities. If the classes didn't exist, every single Namekian would have fought frizeas soldiers and eventually overwhelm them by their numbers but they didn't because the average Namekian were not fighters.
>piccolo was an average namek and he alone was strong enough to conquer the whole Earth with his most powerful warriors.
No, he wasn't lol, the son of Katas or the nameless namekian wasn't an average Namek. Grand Elder Guru even stated that the nameless namekian, when merged together, would have had a power equal to that of a SSJ. Which was proven true when Piccolo jr finally merged back with Kami and was even stronger than a SSJ. But Demon King Piccolo had a PL of over 200, the average human had a PL of 5, it wouldn't have been hard for Demon King Piccolo to conquer the entire earth at all actually.
>the namekis we see fighting Soldiers in the anime are most likely a third generations of namekias. dendei and his younger brother being the youngest of that generations. they most likely are at the same age with piccolo at the cell saga.
Piccolo jr aged rapidly due to how Demon King Piccolo wanted him to be. Nameks can control how they want their offsprings to come out and grow, this was evident with Demon King Piccolo and his demon clan offspring as well as with piccolo jr himself. So it could be possible that they where that age or even older because again Namekians can live up to 500 years so yeah that's a toss up.
@AnyEdge
>I still believe humans have a greater potential than the Saiyans. >The fact that the humans were able to reach the levels they did--without any transformations or fusions--speaks volumes.
the strongest natural human is either Tien or Krillen. Currently, both of them can't hold a candle to cyborg 17 and 18 who are confirmed to be above SSJ level. No matter how much they train, a natural human won't be able to reach the levels the likes of 17 and 18 showed. They can become better fighters off of improving fighting technics and stratagy but raw power humans just don't have.
>2. You're right. I should have added the word "warriors" when talking about the Saiyans and Namekians power levels. However, notice that you have two classes of Namekians with different skill sets. As warriors, Namekians are incredibly durable, very strong and they have that dreaded regeneration ability. Imagine an army of Namekian warriors going up against an army of Saiyans. Equal numbers and power levels. The Namekian warriors would more than easily hold their own. In fact, I would see the Saiyans as the ones at a disadvantage. Saiyans may get stronger after recovering from near-death, but first--they have to recover. The Namekians have healers who can create Dragon Balls. That's not to mention all of the other random abilities Namekians have shown(fusion for instance).
this entire scenario is flawed lol. One Namekians are peaceful by nature even warrior class namekians, two, the warrior class namekians have always been low in numbers, in the namek saga 86% of the planet was made up by dragon class namekians while 14% were made up of warrior class. Three the scenario you presented leaves the Namekians at a disadvantage honestly lol. Equal numbers with equal power levels. so let's say 10 saiyans vs 10 namekians, the namekians would be split into a group of combatants and support, so we can say 7 warrior class combatants with 3 supportive dragon class. the Dragon class are weaker and more fragile, and all of their abilities take time to accomplish. They can't heal anyone instantly, their regeneration cuts stamina and merging are not instant either all of that would leave them open for attack making it easy to pick them off as the fight goes on. The saiyans would actually be stronger due to the Oozaru form but that takes time and would leave them open for attack, but still put them above the namekian fighters if pulled off but I doubt it.
>The Namekians natural physical abilities, combined with their wild array of skills is why I believe they have a greater potential than the Saiyans. The Saiyans are just brute force.
most of their wilder abilities aren't used for combat, so their potential combat wise is stifled plus like you said it depends on the class because both of them have different abilities. A warrior class can't heal someone, and a dragon class by nature can't fight. What use is materalizing clothes in a battle or laying and egg in the midst of a conflict?
>3. I stand by my belief that Piccolo would have been the strongest character in DBZ if he had learned the Kaio-Ken technique. There was a flaw in your argument where you said "[Piccolo's] base power will never grow unless he took the time to train on getting stronger..."
Nah, Piccolo wouldn't be the strongest cuz he would be stagnant power wise. No matter how far he could push the Kaio ken he would just be straining his body. Goku can utilize it the way he can because the strain on his body makes him stronger as he pushes his limits, Piccolo would have to first master the kaio ken then try not to kill himself while he uses it while also attempting to increas his base power by training so ghe dosen't fall behind.
>That applies to everybody! By the time they reach the Cell Saga, the Zenkai boost is practically useless. Cell was the only person who benefitted from it. Vegita sure as hell didn't after getting broken in half by Cell.
Lol, Cell was the only person to get a massive Zenkai boost during the cell saga, so no he wasn't the only person to benefit from it. A zenkai boost is a zenkai boost no matter how little the boost is. If a saiyan had a power of 5 and got a zenaki boost after almost dying and his or her power is now 6.5 or even 7 that saiyan got stronger even if it was by a little bit. If a Namekian was in the same situation with the same power level that Namekian would still have a power level of 5 and would have to train in order to increase it. Saiyans also learn either in the middle of battler or after a battle, they are very adaptive when it comes to fighting, Namekians are not unless they are prodigies like Piccolo and Nail who are not average namekians.
>Piccolo was able to keep up with SSJ levels of power(with some help from fusions--mind you). SS2--which completely dominated Perfect Cell--is a 2x boost from SSJ. SS3 is a 4x boost from SS2(8x from SSJ). Goku was able to push the Kaio-Ken to a x20 multiplier. Piccolo, at SSJ-levels of power, with a 20x boost--would completely stomp over everyone else. Remember, Piccolo trained constantly throughout DBZ.
You do realize that Piccolo would have to first train his body not to give out before he could reach kaio ken x20 right lol. Goku has been using the kaio ken since the saiyan saga and when Goku first used Kaio Ken he could only push it to up to x3 without almost destroying himself. the moment he jumped to kaio ken x4 Goku's body gave out and he could barely fight anymore if he went beyond that he would have killed himself. Piccolo would have to first master Kaio Ken, then build up to the multipliers without overdoing it like Goku did when he used Kaio Ken x10 against Hit and almost ended his fighting career completely. That's why I keep saying Piccolo would have an issue with kaio ken as it's not all that simple especially if it's in the higher multipliers like you keep suggesting.
>It wasn't until he fused with Kame that he gave up his training(I know he stopped training after Cell's defeat, but his personality up until that point, was one similar to Goku and Vegita. I believe Kame was what changed his personality as Kame never trained). If you believe Piccolo could take the KK further than anyone else--imagine how powerful he would have become!
Piccolo relaxed on his intense training because he couldn't reach perfect cells level from what I understand. I believe he stated that in the buu saga but I'd have to check again. If memory serves me right it was in the HBTC with Goten and Trunks when they became SSJ 3 as Gotenks for the first time. but Kami had nothing to do with it.
>4. From what I remember, the HTC ages everyone the same way. One day on the outside was equivalent to one Earth year on the inside. There was nothing to indicate the HTC aging different species at different rates--outside of what was already naturally established. In other words, a human spending one full day--outside time--in the HTC, will come out one year older. That's it.
You misunderstood me. Saiyans have longer life spans and age slower then humans, they stay in their prime longer which was inferred by Vegeta by the end of the buu arc because he was almost 80ish during that tournament with Uub. When Nappa arrived on earth he was 50 but looked to be 30, vegeta was in his 30's but looked to be a late teen or in his early 20's. A humans lifespan is between 80-100 aside from Roshi of course, which would make using the HBTC dangerous. Lossing a year of your life in only a few days is not very beneficial for someone who can't stay in their prime longer than 20 years. Goku and Vegeta at 80 would still look young and be in prime condition, while Krillen and Yamcha at the same age would be older and not in very good condition to keep up with extremely high levels of combat.
>About the stress of the HTC...IIRC, it had a gravity ten times that of Earth. To put it in perspective...Yamcha was able to survive 350x Earth's gravity--without any previous prep AND without dying! Vegita had to build his way up to 350G. Goku had to build his way up to 100G. Yamcha...one-shoted 350G. No broken bones or ruptured organs. Just saying.
Yamcha was in 300x earths gravity, not 350 lol and he almost died when he did that. The gravity isn't the only issue, There is no night or day in the Room, but the surroundings remain a constant bright iridescent white that alone can cause someone to go crazy. you can lose your sense of night and day and your body will be thrown out of whack unless you mentally are prepared for something like that. The temperature also changes drastically from extreme heat to extream cold randomly and the air pressure is a quarter of the earths and changes the deeper you go into the chamber. If you are not prepared both physically and mentally for the HBTC you will go crazy or get stuck inside and eventually die there. again Yamcha almost died when he did that lol ill link you the video. But both Goku and Vegeta got accustomed to 10x earths gravity first, then built their way up, Yamcha jumped the gun and almost killed himself by skipping steps. You can equate what Goku and Vegeta did with the gravity room to strength endurance training that you can do in the gym. If you can personally curl let's say 65 lbs dumbells, if you want to increase your strength endurance you start to crul lower weights first not your max. so start out with let's say 10 lbs and curl them 30x's for each arm until finally, you notice that your endurance level has increased to where your arm isn't tired after curling the 10lbs 30xs, what you would do next is increase the weight and repeat the process. So 15 lbs 30x's up until you reach a point where your muscles aren't tired anymore when you do your reps. What Yamcha did is equivalent to deciding to say I'm going to instead start with 65 lbs and curl that 30x's when in reality you can only curl that maybe 5xs before giving out or hurting yourself. There is a level of progression that needs to be done to get the best results. so your example with yamcha was a really bad choice lol.
>My whole point about humans was their apparent lack of drive.
Because it's not their nature to fight constantly. In DB humans don't go looking for conflicts constantly like saiyans do.
>They could be so much stronger. In fact, outside of the Namekians, humans had the best techniques. No one in Frieza's army had even heard of the concept of detecting power levels without a scouter! Saiyans are purely physical strength--nothing more. >Namekians have durability, regeneration, and a wealth of abilities. >Humans may not be the physically strongest, but have creativity and skill.
Goku learned and perfected the techniques that they made lol. Vegeta even picked up these techniques and knew how and when to utilize them without even having to train to figure them out. He learned how to detect Ki and mask his ki by simply seeing someone else do it lol. saiyans, for the most part, are purely physical strength, but they are also tactical fighters as shown by both Goku and Vegeta. your speculation on Saiyans is kinda faulty cuz we don't know what techniques they could have developed if they were not killed off. Nappa destroyed an entire city with two fingers and opened an abyss with one lol, Vegeta made a saibaman and Cui exploid without shooting ki at them so saiyans have developed some really strong techniques. Saiyans naturally can utilize Ki easier than humans and are better skilled at using ki then humans are, they already have a level of ki control from a young age that humans have to train to achieve, they are physically stronger and more adept to combat without training and have combative instincts that both warrior class namekians and humans don't have.
>The "drive" is something the fighters themselves should have had--considering all of the times the Earth was in danger.
Saiyans have a drive to get stronger no matter what is going on, humans in DB had a drive to get stronger when the earth was in danger, but when it was safe they relaxed cuz they had no need to get stronger cuz there was no threat. Saiyans have the higher potential because all the things they could do naturally the human race has to train for, and the namekians would have to ignore their nature or be corrupted to change. Not to mention the transformations that the saiyans have as they increase their power.

@Danfabber86
I agree that he could be immortal but thats not a proven scenario or is it a fact by any stretch much like how vegeta was never proven to be ssj2 thanks to the majin seal.
so if he is immortal that means he'd need to be immortal without radditz knowing it, and kakarotto not being smart or sane might have gotten the dragon balls and wished for it, and not known what the fuck that even was, likely assuming it was food and was disapointed when shenron granted him his delicious immortality. granted it sounds dumb in theory, but thats not quite as stupid as one would think if he were learned in db lore. goku thought marriage was a food item, so kakarot over hearing from piccolo that he wanted immortality for his sweet delicious revenge might think "sweet? AND DELICIOUS?! I must have it!"
so thats one scenario where he could be immortal, and if piccolo were to be set free he might have joined with kakarot thinking he were a demon and would maybe make him one of his clansmen in an attempt to wipe out all humans. The 2 of them working together would make kami and popo nervous. Didn't kakarot say he had killed kami? I don't recall exactly at the moment.
If he's not immortal, I'll be fine with that. It's just a pet theory I thought of, and it's already nice that my favorite child hood theory of majin vegeta getting ssj2 from the majin seal was made a reality in dbm, so I'll be satisfied if its just the 1 and not the other. What a great time to be alive, seeing this comic with asuras sweet art style.
Edit:
correction, he killed piccolo, so that shoots down the theory I posted above...or not quite. a civil war between the 2 might have broken out, ot he thought piccolo and kami were the same guy, because they are and also he's racist and stupid enough to confuse a geezer and a young king piccolo, unless he never got his wish to become young.

@Nick Name aggy
I get your points, but there are a few things I disagree on:
1. I still believe humans have a greater potential than the Saiyans. You're right about the Saiyans being a warrior race. They spend their entire lives in combat...presumably starting from childhood. The humans--including Master Roshi et al.--are trained fighters who spent their lives training in seclusion and fighting in tournaments for sport. When it came to their survival, the humans clearly showed their ability to surpass all known human "limitations"--time and again. The fact that the humans were able to reach the levels they did--without any transformations or fusions--speaks volumes. As a side note: I always got the impression the humans were the youngest of the species portrayed in DBZ. I could be wrong, but that's how it always felt to me.
2. You're right. I should have added the word "warriors" when talking about the Saiyans and Namekians power levels. However, notice that you have two classes of Namekians with different skill sets. As warriors, Namekians are incredibly durable, very strong and they have that dreaded regeneration ability. Imagine an army of Namekian warriors going up against an army of Saiyans.

Saiyans may get stronger after recovering from near-death, but first--they have to recover. The Namekians have healers who can create Dragon Balls. That's not to mention all of the other random abilities Namekians have shown(fusion for instance).
The Namekians natural physical abilities, combined with their wild array of skills is why I believe they have a greater potential than the Saiyans. The Saiyans are just brute force.
3. I stand by my belief that Piccolo would have been the strongest character in DBZ if he had learned the Kaio-Ken technique. There was a flaw in your argument where you said "[Piccolo's] base power will never grow unless he took the time to train on getting stronger...". That applies to everybody!

Namekians have durability, regeneration, and a wealth of abilities. I believe Guru even mentioned that most of their techniques and fighting arts had been lost after the cataclysm. Humans may not be the physically strongest, but have creativity and skill.
The only "limitations" humans have are: 1)no Zenkai boost, 2)no rapid regeneration abilities and 3)no natural transformations or fusions. The "drive" is something the fighters themselves should have had--considering all of the times the Earth was in danger.

Goku was not equal to perfect cell, hence why goku conceded and everyone watching the fight was commenting on how goku can't last much longer..
Goku said himself that Gohan was comparing his power to his own, and goku said he was going full power, while gohan was stronger than goku,but didn't know so he assumed that goku wasn't going all out.
This is also shown when perfect cell powers up to fight gohan, everyone (including goku) comment on how perfect cell had way more power than they thought and realised that perfect cell hadn't been going full power on goku this entire time.

There’s no reason to accuse ANYONE of ignorance since it was never expressly said in the anime or the manga. @Vegeta69 says it was said in daizenshuu, but when I looked the only thing that found from daizenshuu was that it was unclear if he had it before the Majin enhancement. Instead of accusing people of ignorance, help broaden there horizons by providing solid and sourced information to answer a question that’s been in debate long before this page :/.
@ice cube
Embarrassing... can’t believe I forgot about BOTH of those stances xD. Though I have always said “on par” as in “is comparable to” not “equal” it’s clear when going back to confirm what you said that he was indeed holding back. So thank you for correcting me :). That being said, it’s still true that after 7 years, Vegeta would not need to be a SSJ2 to be able to beat Cell. Just master full power SSJ and a base power stronger then what he had back then.anywhere from x1.5-x2.5 and his full power SSJ would be strong enough to take on perfect Cell/super perfect Cell respectfully.

@Nick Name aggy
did he ever said dragon class and warrior class?
no mate. some can create dragon balls yes. I do not know due if thats due their magic is stronger or they get to practice magic the same way others practice training. the elders seem to be able to create dragon balls. picolo split into 2 beings and one was able to create dragon balls and the other could not? if they are one and the same been how can the be the Clans? and all of them are the Children and gran Children of guru so there is not being any Clans there but individuals who show different abilities. and all their strength seem stronger than the average human and saiyan. Hell their stronger fighter was stronger than the saiyan royality, had vegeta not gotten 2 zen kais boosts.
Now how do you see him stronger than a super saiyan when he fused with kami? i mean why do you Think this is solely becuase of their fusion? picolo had trained long and hard he was stronger that king piccolo, after that he kept training to fight against goku, he kept training to fight the saiyans. he fused with Nail who alone as stronger than dodoria or zarbon. then he achived a level of around fresser 2 form. after that he kept on trraining for the Androids and then he fused with kami to become stronger than a super saiyan who had trained for 3 years. now if his original forms was stronger than a super saiyan from the begining then all that training and the fusing with Nail would have matter nothing. because he was stronger from the begining. I dont know where you hear all this tuff from piccolo, is that from a new dub? is it kai or something or is it from an other language than Englsih? or is just from team four stars or just specualtions?

@Nick Name aggy
I just wanted to add that people seem to also forget that Kaio Ken doesn't exactly multiply one's power by the amount it's used. Hence Kaio Ken x20 doesn't multiply Goku's power by 20... either that or the "Super Saiyan doubles his strength!" is way off. Take a look at Namek, when Goku fought Frieza. He used Kaio Ken x 20... and barely made a scratch on half power Frieza. He turned Super Saiyan and destroyed half power Frieza, even defeating maximum power Frieza. If Kaio Ken multiplied by that amount and Super Saiyan only doubles... well, he should've easily destroyed Frieza with that Kamehameha that barely scratched him. I've personally been under the impression that it multiplies another variable (not sure what, maybe just a fraction of his power? So like 180,000 x .1, then that added to the 180,000, making it 198,000 for Kaio Ken x1 on Namek, just as an example?) before adding to strength, hence Kaio Ken x1 (anything times 1 is still just the original, after all :P) still increasing his power.
For further support, also note the Saiyan Saga; Before powering up Goku was stated to be over 9,000... but Vegeta was, if I recall (if somebody has proof that I'm misrecalling, please post!), officially stated to be (at max) about 24,000 at that point. Yet Goku was still overpowered (or at best, equal to Vegeta) even at Kaio Ken times 3, which should've put him around 30,000, and barely overpowered Vegeta's Galick Gun with his Kamehameha at Kaio Ken times 4...
Also to those who said Goku could win the tournament because he always does... Didn't Goku technically only win a single tournament in his entire life? He lost to Roshi, Tien, beat Piccolo Jr., lost to Cell, resigned to take on Babidi, essentially forfeited to train Uub... And if you want to count GT (know people both love and hate it) he lost to Mugley the human there, thanks to being tickled and Vegeta distracting him. So 4 (or 5 counting GT) tournaments he fought through, counting the Cell Games, and only managed to win 1 and 2 in which he resigned/forfeited.
And to those talking about Dragon clan: Yes, it was mentioned. Guru flat out stated, at least in the manga, and I believe in the anime as well, "How could a scion of the dragon clan be killed by a saiyan? It's true saiyans are terrible, but... was he, perhaps, a Super Saiyan?" when he learned of Piccolo's/Kami's death upon the invasion.

or were STUBBORNLY -> refusing to accept, that Freezer was indeed transforming into that Form, when One could STILL SEE THE WOUNDS from where Piccolo shot him into the Chest!
Seriously, Folks! HOW HARD could it possibly be, to spot that this Frostdemon was freezer?
I get it, it get it -> he could be easily be confused with his Father, but the Chest Wounds were RIGHT THERE !! Like IN YOUR FACE!
and all the People ... ...
" This isn't Freezer ... "
" This is Cold in MID-transformation between fourth and fifth Form ... ... "
" This can not be Freezer. Freezer can not transform into the fifth Form ... ... "
While the Chest Wounds were actually there - and PROVING THEM RIGHT WRONG - while they ACTUALLY went on with spouting this Crap!
Jeez'l~ouiese, Folks! HOW HARD is it NOT to be a stubborn, recalcitrant Child? Just accept that THIS FREEZER here can actually transform into the fifth Form!! The Majin-State enhances his Energy. It makes his Cells more resilient! Freezer has more Potential to dive deep into what his Species can do AND HAS the needed Majin-Durability to endure this Transformation!!
You know?
In the Ginyu Special? When Ginyu murdered Cold - and felt like he was about to probably explode any Moment ?? Frost Demons need to train their Bodies to unlock their full physical Potential. Oh my! What a Surprise ... ...
Freezer never trained, right? I could imagine Cooler trained a bit, in his Life. After all,
Cooler once stated that his Father "also" discovered the Augmentation-Forms, right?
That implies that " Cooler " had ALSO first to discover that he could transform into the fifth Form. Means -> he HADN'T had it from the Beginning!
The Majin-Boost unlocks for Freezer the fifth Form he was always to lazy to unlock himself. He even wondered that he "could" actually do that, when he saw the Ghostversion of him fighting for Raichi.
No Shit, People! Freezer CAN actually transform into the fifth Form.
Only because he never did before in this Tournament ((his living Self, not the Ghost one)) doesn't mean he isn't able to.
And this annoyed me the last Pages. People were like stubborn AntifaMembers - hellbend in denying Freezer the Possibility of being able to.
Last fxxxing Time! You have two Eyes in your Heads when You are a undamaged Person. USE THEM!!! The Chest Wounds were right there!

You live up to your name that's for sure. There are warrior type namekians aka Warriors (Senshi), and the dragon type namekians are from the Dragon Clan (Ryūzoku). Even in the official Dragon Ball Online game you have Namekian Warrior and Dragon class/type/caste.

@royaken,again what i said,there was no reason why the one stronger than the one can go SSJ2 can't go SSJ2,and your ignorance is thart you said Full power SSJ1 is able to beat cell,what a asinine,SPPC power level was close to SSJ2 GOHAN in the Cell game,be smart,please

@Royaken: "i.e." means "id est", which is Latin for "that is". Another way of saying it is, "in other words". I think you were looking for "e.g." ("exempli gratia"), which means, "for example".
This doesn't affect your point at all, but may explain why some folks were confused.

"Piccolo was able to keep up with SSJ levels of power(with some help from fusions--mind you). SS2--which completely dominated Perfect Cell--is a 2x boost from SSJ. SS3 is a 4x boost from SS2(8x from SSJ). Goku was able to push the Kaio-Ken to a x20 multiplier. Piccolo, at SSJ-levels of power, with a 20x boost--would completely stomp over everyone else. Remember, Piccolo trained constantly throughout DBZ. It wasn't until he fused with Kame that he gave up his training(I know he stopped training after Cell's defeat, but his personality up until that point, was one similar to Goku and Vegita. I believe Kame was what changed his personality as Kame never trained). If you believe Piccolo could take the KK further than anyone else--imagine how powerful he would have become!"
What you are missing here is that there are levels of Super Saiyan. When Piccolo was stronger than a SSJ, was against relatively entry level Super Saiyans. Before Vegeta and Trunks unlocked Ascended and Ultra, and before Goku and Gohan unlocked Full Powered Super Saiyan. If there is a doubling it is from THAT point.

Vegeta used first time SS2 while being Majinized/Demonic, and while fighting Super Buu (only in the anime) and Kid Buu (in the anime they forgot to add the lightning aura that was present in the manga, ironic considering they added ss2 fight against Super Buu what wasn't in the manga).

Everything looks so nice.
A problem I have is the somewhat awkward delivery of lines at times.
Like the "transform yourself son" line a couple pages back.
My first thought was of just how dumb that sounds when read out loud.
Why on earth would any of them even need to be told when to do something like this after the effortless beat down they just got from piccolo?
This page the first and third line just feels off and generally kind of pointless. They are basically saying out load what can very easily be seen with the amazing artwork.
The second line feels far more natural.

@Lv37bizarro
I think the first line is a thought bubble so its not supposed to be said out loud its just a thought ginyus having that they are telling the reader.
As far as some of the bad dialogue part of its because they are translating from french I would assume. ginyu telling his son to transform is just a hidden jab at freeza and cooler since hes still pretending to be their dad. I dont find the line that wierd so much as the fact that that troll line by ginyu did not piss freeza off. I would assume babidi has less control over ginyu then his sons though given his higher power level and somewhat less evil motives.
Some of the poor dialogue could also be because of just how little freedom weaker majinized people have. I bet babidis mind dom severely lowers iq when its complete.

Neat thing is I don't think any of the fighters will lose what they unlocked when this Majin crisis is over. So Kakarot and Frieza got some serious quality of life going forward.

I'm looking forward to the next page. In a way, I think ssj3 kakarot will come in and wreck peoples shit. salagir retconning the majin boost is a great way to turn these low level mooks into credible threats.
can we all look forward to cell turning into a 5th form beyond perfection? I think so!

The transition from Frieza to Kakarot wasn't the smoothest it could've been. Kind of a "hard cut" if you will. But jeez.. crazy Babidi powered Kakarot is awesome looking. And should've gotten it's own page.
I get that they need to cut back and forth between all the fights regularly since this all is supposed to be happening simultaneously, but I wish they'd give one or two more pages for each fight so transitioning between them didn't feel as jarring.

@Royaken here is what Diazenshuu #7 has to say about SSJ2. Daizenshuu 7 also says Vegeta acquired Super Saiyan 2 through training:
Super Saiyan 2
First Appearance: chapter 408
People: Son Goku, Son Gohan, Vegeta, Gotenks
Special features: This form has power that surpasses Super Saiyan in all ways. Gohan naturally transformed into this form from his anger at Cell's brutal actions, while Goku and Vegeta learned it from harsh training
2018-01-22 22:05:47
Your nickhuu
Haha people and marjin vegeta arguments. Whoever thinks the marjin magic did not give vegeta the boost or was the catalyst for ssj2. How does this page make you feel hahhaha

>dude, that warrior class / dragon class has never been mentioned in the series that is something that was made up.
They were mentioned by Guru lol. Warrior class Nameks can't create Dragon Balls, i.e that's why once Piccolo Jr merged together with kami he couldn't create a new set of dragon balls, and why Dende was brought into the picture as the new guardian. If the classes didn't exist all Namekians would be able to create dragon balls which they can't do if they could Dende wasn't needed since piccolo merged with Kami would be able to create his own set of dragon balls. now, this might sound tricky, but it' because of how Nameks create their offspring. The nameless Namek was a dragon class prodigy which was said by Guru in the Namek saga. After splitting himself both Kami and King Piccolo were still considered dragon Class namekian, King Piccolo was just evil and went against the naturally peaceful nature the dragon class had. When King Piccolo created Piccolo Jr before his death, he made Piccolo Jr a Warrior class namekian, that's why he was so much stronger then Demon King Piccolo. Once Piccolo Jr fused with Nail that solidified his status as a warrior class namekian. When Kami and Piccolo Jr remerged together they mixed the classes making Piccolo Jr the only hybrid of both classes. But once they merged together the old dragon balls became useless. Warrior class Namekians have a different physical build than the dragon-class Namekians. They are taller and much more muscular as well as have keen fighting senses and abilities. If the classes didn't exist, every single Namekian would have fought frizeas soldiers and eventually overwhelm them by their numbers but they didn't because the average Namekian were not fighters.
>piccolo was an average namek and he alone was strong enough to conquer the whole Earth with his most powerful warriors.
No, he wasn't lol, the son of Katas or the nameless namekian wasn't an average Namek. Grand Elder Guru even stated that the nameless namekian, when merged together, would have had a power equal to that of a SSJ. Which was proven true when Piccolo jr finally merged back with Kami and was even stronger than a SSJ. But Demon King Piccolo had a PL of over 200, the average human had a PL of 5, it wouldn't have been hard for Demon King Piccolo to conquer the entire earth at all actually.
>the namekis we see fighting Soldiers in the anime are most likely a third generations of namekias. dendei and his younger brother being the youngest of that generations. they most likely are at the same age with piccolo at the cell saga.
Piccolo jr aged rapidly due to how Demon King Piccolo wanted him to be. Nameks can control how they want their offsprings to come out and grow, this was evident with Demon King Piccolo and his demon clan offspring as well as with piccolo jr himself. So it could be possible that they where that age or even older because again Namekians can live up to 500 years so yeah that's a toss up.
@AnyEdge
>I still believe humans have a greater potential than the Saiyans.
>The fact that the humans were able to reach the levels they did--without any transformations or fusions--speaks volumes.
the strongest natural human is either Tien or Krillen. Currently, both of them can't hold a candle to cyborg 17 and 18 who are confirmed to be above SSJ level. No matter how much they train, a natural human won't be able to reach the levels the likes of 17 and 18 showed. They can become better fighters off of improving fighting technics and stratagy but raw power humans just don't have.
>2. You're right. I should have added the word "warriors" when talking about the Saiyans and Namekians power levels. However, notice that you have two classes of Namekians with different skill sets. As warriors, Namekians are incredibly durable, very strong and they have that dreaded regeneration ability. Imagine an army of Namekian warriors going up against an army of Saiyans. Equal numbers and power levels. The Namekian warriors would more than easily hold their own. In fact, I would see the Saiyans as the ones at a disadvantage. Saiyans may get stronger after recovering from near-death, but first--they have to recover. The Namekians have healers who can create Dragon Balls. That's not to mention all of the other random abilities Namekians have shown(fusion for instance).
this entire scenario is flawed lol. One Namekians are peaceful by nature even warrior class namekians, two, the warrior class namekians have always been low in numbers, in the namek saga 86% of the planet was made up by dragon class namekians while 14% were made up of warrior class. Three the scenario you presented leaves the Namekians at a disadvantage honestly lol. Equal numbers with equal power levels. so let's say 10 saiyans vs 10 namekians, the namekians would be split into a group of combatants and support, so we can say 7 warrior class combatants with 3 supportive dragon class. the Dragon class are weaker and more fragile, and all of their abilities take time to accomplish. They can't heal anyone instantly, their regeneration cuts stamina and merging are not instant either all of that would leave them open for attack making it easy to pick them off as the fight goes on. The saiyans would actually be stronger due to the Oozaru form but that takes time and would leave them open for attack, but still put them above the namekian fighters if pulled off but I doubt it.
>The Namekians natural physical abilities, combined with their wild array of skills is why I believe they have a greater potential than the Saiyans. The Saiyans are just brute force.
most of their wilder abilities aren't used for combat, so their potential combat wise is stifled plus like you said it depends on the class because both of them have different abilities. A warrior class can't heal someone, and a dragon class by nature can't fight. What use is materalizing clothes in a battle or laying and egg in the midst of a conflict?
>3. I stand by my belief that Piccolo would have been the strongest character in DBZ if he had learned the Kaio-Ken technique. There was a flaw in your argument where you said "[Piccolo's] base power will never grow unless he took the time to train on getting stronger..."
Nah, Piccolo wouldn't be the strongest cuz he would be stagnant power wise. No matter how far he could push the Kaio ken he would just be straining his body. Goku can utilize it the way he can because the strain on his body makes him stronger as he pushes his limits, Piccolo would have to first master the kaio ken then try not to kill himself while he uses it while also attempting to increas his base power by training so ghe dosen't fall behind.
>That applies to everybody! By the time they reach the Cell Saga, the Zenkai boost is practically useless. Cell was the only person who benefitted from it. Vegita sure as hell didn't after getting broken in half by Cell.
Lol, Cell was the only person to get a massive Zenkai boost during the cell saga, so no he wasn't the only person to benefit from it. A zenkai boost is a zenkai boost no matter how little the boost is. If a saiyan had a power of 5 and got a zenaki boost after almost dying and his or her power is now 6.5 or even 7 that saiyan got stronger even if it was by a little bit. If a Namekian was in the same situation with the same power level that Namekian would still have a power level of 5 and would have to train in order to increase it. Saiyans also learn either in the middle of battler or after a battle, they are very adaptive when it comes to fighting, Namekians are not unless they are prodigies like Piccolo and Nail who are not average namekians.
>Piccolo was able to keep up with SSJ levels of power(with some help from fusions--mind you). SS2--which completely dominated Perfect Cell--is a 2x boost from SSJ. SS3 is a 4x boost from SS2(8x from SSJ). Goku was able to push the Kaio-Ken to a x20 multiplier. Piccolo, at SSJ-levels of power, with a 20x boost--would completely stomp over everyone else. Remember, Piccolo trained constantly throughout DBZ.
You do realize that Piccolo would have to first train his body not to give out before he could reach kaio ken x20 right lol. Goku has been using the kaio ken since the saiyan saga and when Goku first used Kaio Ken he could only push it to up to x3 without almost destroying himself. the moment he jumped to kaio ken x4 Goku's body gave out and he could barely fight anymore if he went beyond that he would have killed himself. Piccolo would have to first master Kaio Ken, then build up to the multipliers without overdoing it like Goku did when he used Kaio Ken x10 against Hit and almost ended his fighting career completely. That's why I keep saying Piccolo would have an issue with kaio ken as it's not all that simple especially if it's in the higher multipliers like you keep suggesting.
>It wasn't until he fused with Kame that he gave up his training(I know he stopped training after Cell's defeat, but his personality up until that point, was one similar to Goku and Vegita. I believe Kame was what changed his personality as Kame never trained). If you believe Piccolo could take the KK further than anyone else--imagine how powerful he would have become!
Piccolo relaxed on his intense training because he couldn't reach perfect cells level from what I understand. I believe he stated that in the buu saga but I'd have to check again. If memory serves me right it was in the HBTC with Goten and Trunks when they became SSJ 3 as Gotenks for the first time. but Kami had nothing to do with it.
>4. From what I remember, the HTC ages everyone the same way. One day on the outside was equivalent to one Earth year on the inside. There was nothing to indicate the HTC aging different species at different rates--outside of what was already naturally established. In other words, a human spending one full day--outside time--in the HTC, will come out one year older. That's it.
You misunderstood me. Saiyans have longer life spans and age slower then humans, they stay in their prime longer which was inferred by Vegeta by the end of the buu arc because he was almost 80ish during that tournament with Uub. When Nappa arrived on earth he was 50 but looked to be 30, vegeta was in his 30's but looked to be a late teen or in his early 20's. A humans lifespan is between 80-100 aside from Roshi of course, which would make using the HBTC dangerous. Lossing a year of your life in only a few days is not very beneficial for someone who can't stay in their prime longer than 20 years. Goku and Vegeta at 80 would still look young and be in prime condition, while Krillen and Yamcha at the same age would be older and not in very good condition to keep up with extremely high levels of combat.
>About the stress of the HTC...IIRC, it had a gravity ten times that of Earth. To put it in perspective...Yamcha was able to survive 350x Earth's gravity--without any previous prep AND without dying! Vegita had to build his way up to 350G. Goku had to build his way up to 100G. Yamcha...one-shoted 350G. No broken bones or ruptured organs. Just saying.
Yamcha was in 300x earths gravity, not 350 lol and he almost died when he did that. The gravity isn't the only issue, There is no night or day in the Room, but the surroundings remain a constant bright iridescent white that alone can cause someone to go crazy. you can lose your sense of night and day and your body will be thrown out of whack unless you mentally are prepared for something like that. The temperature also changes drastically from extreme heat to extream cold randomly and the air pressure is a quarter of the earths and changes the deeper you go into the chamber. If you are not prepared both physically and mentally for the HBTC you will go crazy or get stuck inside and eventually die there. again Yamcha almost died when he did that lol ill link you the video. But both Goku and Vegeta got accustomed to 10x earths gravity first, then built their way up, Yamcha jumped the gun and almost killed himself by skipping steps. You can equate what Goku and Vegeta did with the gravity room to strength endurance training that you can do in the gym. If you can personally curl let's say 65 lbs dumbells, if you want to increase your strength endurance you start to crul lower weights first not your max. so start out with let's say 10 lbs and curl them 30x's for each arm until finally, you notice that your endurance level has increased to where your arm isn't tired after curling the 10lbs 30xs, what you would do next is increase the weight and repeat the process. So 15 lbs 30x's up until you reach a point where your muscles aren't tired anymore when you do your reps. What Yamcha did is equivalent to deciding to say I'm going to instead start with 65 lbs and curl that 30x's when in reality you can only curl that maybe 5xs before giving out or hurting yourself. There is a level of progression that needs to be done to get the best results. so your example with yamcha was a really bad choice lol.
here is the Youtube link to the video of Yamcha almost killing himself
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQQc-TcQSCo
>My whole point about humans was their apparent lack of drive.
Because it's not their nature to fight constantly. In DB humans don't go looking for conflicts constantly like saiyans do.
>They could be so much stronger. In fact, outside of the Namekians, humans had the best techniques. No one in Frieza's army had even heard of the concept of detecting power levels without a scouter! Saiyans are purely physical strength--nothing more.
>Namekians have durability, regeneration, and a wealth of abilities.
>Humans may not be the physically strongest, but have creativity and skill.
Goku learned and perfected the techniques that they made lol. Vegeta even picked up these techniques and knew how and when to utilize them without even having to train to figure them out. He learned how to detect Ki and mask his ki by simply seeing someone else do it lol. saiyans, for the most part, are purely physical strength, but they are also tactical fighters as shown by both Goku and Vegeta. your speculation on Saiyans is kinda faulty cuz we don't know what techniques they could have developed if they were not killed off. Nappa destroyed an entire city with two fingers and opened an abyss with one lol, Vegeta made a saibaman and Cui exploid without shooting ki at them so saiyans have developed some really strong techniques. Saiyans naturally can utilize Ki easier than humans and are better skilled at using ki then humans are, they already have a level of ki control from a young age that humans have to train to achieve, they are physically stronger and more adept to combat without training and have combative instincts that both warrior class namekians and humans don't have.
>The "drive" is something the fighters themselves should have had--considering all of the times the Earth was in danger.
Saiyans have a drive to get stronger no matter what is going on, humans in DB had a drive to get stronger when the earth was in danger, but when it was safe they relaxed cuz they had no need to get stronger cuz there was no threat. Saiyans have the higher potential because all the things they could do naturally the human race has to train for, and the namekians would have to ignore their nature or be corrupted to change. Not to mention the transformations that the saiyans have as they increase their power.
Gast Carcolh
I agree that he could be immortal but thats not a proven scenario or is it a fact by any stretch much like how vegeta was never proven to be ssj2 thanks to the majin seal.
so if he is immortal that means he'd need to be immortal without radditz knowing it, and kakarotto not being smart or sane might have gotten the dragon balls and wished for it, and not known what the fuck that even was, likely assuming it was food and was disapointed when shenron granted him his delicious immortality. granted it sounds dumb in theory, but thats not quite as stupid as one would think if he were learned in db lore. goku thought marriage was a food item, so kakarot over hearing from piccolo that he wanted immortality for his sweet delicious revenge might think "sweet? AND DELICIOUS?! I must have it!"
so thats one scenario where he could be immortal, and if piccolo were to be set free he might have joined with kakarot thinking he were a demon and would maybe make him one of his clansmen in an attempt to wipe out all humans. The 2 of them working together would make kami and popo nervous. Didn't kakarot say he had killed kami? I don't recall exactly at the moment.
If he's not immortal, I'll be fine with that. It's just a pet theory I thought of, and it's already nice that my favorite child hood theory of majin vegeta getting ssj2 from the majin seal was made a reality in dbm, so I'll be satisfied if its just the 1 and not the other. What a great time to be alive, seeing this comic with asuras sweet art style.
Edit:
correction, he killed piccolo, so that shoots down the theory I posted above...or not quite. a civil war between the 2 might have broken out, ot he thought piccolo and kami were the same guy, because they are and also he's racist and stupid enough to confuse a geezer and a young king piccolo, unless he never got his wish to become young.
AnyEdge
I get your points, but there are a few things I disagree on:
1. I still believe humans have a greater potential than the Saiyans. You're right about the Saiyans being a warrior race. They spend their entire lives in combat...presumably starting from childhood. The humans--including Master Roshi et al.--are trained fighters who spent their lives training in seclusion and fighting in tournaments for sport. When it came to their survival, the humans clearly showed their ability to surpass all known human "limitations"--time and again. The fact that the humans were able to reach the levels they did--without any transformations or fusions--speaks volumes. As a side note: I always got the impression the humans were the youngest of the species portrayed in DBZ. I could be wrong, but that's how it always felt to me.
2. You're right. I should have added the word "warriors" when talking about the Saiyans and Namekians power levels. However, notice that you have two classes of Namekians with different skill sets. As warriors, Namekians are incredibly durable, very strong and they have that dreaded regeneration ability. Imagine an army of Namekian warriors going up against an army of Saiyans. Equal numbers and power levels. The Namekian warriors would more than easily hold their own. In fact, I would see the Saiyans as the ones at a disadvantage. Saiyans may get stronger after recovering from near-death, but first--they have to recover. The Namekians have healers who can create Dragon Balls. That's not to mention all of the other random abilities Namekians have shown(fusion for instance).
The Namekians natural physical abilities, combined with their wild array of skills is why I believe they have a greater potential than the Saiyans. The Saiyans are just brute force.
3. I stand by my belief that Piccolo would have been the strongest character in DBZ if he had learned the Kaio-Ken technique. There was a flaw in your argument where you said "[Piccolo's] base power will never grow unless he took the time to train on getting stronger...". That applies to everybody! By the time they reach the Cell Saga, the Zenkai boost is practically useless. Cell was the only person who benefitted from it. Vegita sure as hell didn't after getting broken in half by Cell.
Piccolo was able to keep up with SSJ levels of power(with some help from fusions--mind you). SS2--which completely dominated Perfect Cell--is a 2x boost from SSJ. SS3 is a 4x boost from SS2(8x from SSJ). Goku was able to push the Kaio-Ken to a x20 multiplier. Piccolo, at SSJ-levels of power, with a 20x boost--would completely stomp over everyone else. Remember, Piccolo trained constantly throughout DBZ. It wasn't until he fused with Kame that he gave up his training(I know he stopped training after Cell's defeat, but his personality up until that point, was one similar to Goku and Vegita. I believe Kame was what changed his personality as Kame never trained). If you believe Piccolo could take the KK further than anyone else--imagine how powerful he would have become!
4. From what I remember, the HTC ages everyone the same way. One day on the outside was equivalent to one Earth year on the inside. There was nothing to indicate the HTC aging different species at different rates--outside of what was already naturally established. In other words, a human spending one full day--outside time--in the HTC, will come out one year older. That's it. About the stress of the HTC...IIRC, it had a gravity ten times that of Earth. To put it in perspective...Yamcha was able to survive 350x Earth's gravity--without any previous prep AND without dying! Vegita had to build his way up to 350G. Goku had to build his way up to 100G. *Yamcha*...one-shoted 350G. No broken bones or ruptured organs. Just saying.
5. My whole point about humans was their apparent lack of drive. They could be so much stronger. In fact, outside of the Namekians, humans had the best techniques. No one in Frieza's army had even heard of the concept of detecting power levels without a scouter! Saiyans are purely physical strength--nothing more. Namekians have durability, regeneration, and a wealth of abilities. I believe Guru even mentioned that most of their techniques and fighting arts had been lost after the cataclysm. Humans may not be the physically strongest, but have creativity and skill.
The only "limitations" humans have are: 1)no Zenkai boost, 2)no rapid regeneration abilities and 3)no natural transformations or fusions. The "drive" is something the fighters themselves should have had--considering all of the times the Earth was in danger.

I honestly don't know how I missed that. Cold's chestplates are a different color than his lower torso and legs while Freeza is a smooth solid white over his whole body. I feel really silly now. Thanks for pointing that out, guys.

Goku was not equal to perfect cell, hence why goku conceded and everyone watching the fight was commenting on how goku can't last much longer..
Goku said himself that Gohan was comparing his power to his own, and goku said he was going full power, while gohan was stronger than goku,but didn't know so he assumed that goku wasn't going all out.
This is also shown when perfect cell powers up to fight gohan, everyone (including goku) comment on how perfect cell had way more power than they thought and realised that perfect cell hadn't been going full power on goku this entire time.

@Danfabber86,

There’s no reason to accuse ANYONE of ignorance since it was never expressly said in the anime or the manga. @Vegeta69 says it was said in daizenshuu, but when I looked the only thing that found from daizenshuu was that it was unclear if he had it before the Majin enhancement. Instead of accusing people of ignorance, help broaden there horizons by providing solid and sourced information to answer a question that’s been in debate long before this page :/.
@ice cube
Embarrassing... can’t believe I forgot about BOTH of those stances xD. Though I have always said “on par” as in “is comparable to” not “equal” it’s clear when going back to confirm what you said that he was indeed holding back. So thank you for correcting me :). That being said, it’s still true that after 7 years, Vegeta would not need to be a SSJ2 to be able to beat Cell. Just master full power SSJ and a base power stronger then what he had back then.anywhere from x1.5-x2.5 and his full power SSJ would be strong enough to take on perfect Cell/super perfect Cell respectfully.
monkeyboy
did he ever said dragon class and warrior class?
no mate. some can create dragon balls yes. I do not know due if thats due their magic is stronger or they get to practice magic the same way others practice training. the elders seem to be able to create dragon balls. picolo split into 2 beings and one was able to create dragon balls and the other could not? if they are one and the same been how can the be the Clans? and all of them are the Children and gran Children of guru so there is not being any Clans there but individuals who show different abilities. and all their strength seem stronger than the average human and saiyan. Hell their stronger fighter was stronger than the saiyan royality, had vegeta not gotten 2 zen kais boosts.
Now how do you see him stronger than a super saiyan when he fused with kami? i mean why do you Think this is solely becuase of their fusion? picolo had trained long and hard he was stronger that king piccolo, after that he kept training to fight against goku, he kept training to fight the saiyans. he fused with Nail who alone as stronger than dodoria or zarbon. then he achived a level of around fresser 2 form. after that he kept on trraining for the Androids and then he fused with kami to become stronger than a super saiyan who had trained for 3 years. now if his original forms was stronger than a super saiyan from the begining then all that training and the fusing with Nail would have matter nothing. because he was stronger from the begining. I dont know where you hear all this tuff from piccolo, is that from a new dub? is it kai or something or is it from an other language than Englsih? or is just from team four stars or just specualtions?

I just wanted to add that people seem to also forget that Kaio Ken doesn't exactly multiply one's power by the amount it's used. Hence Kaio Ken x20 doesn't multiply Goku's power by 20... either that or the "Super Saiyan doubles his strength!" is way off. Take a look at Namek, when Goku fought Frieza. He used Kaio Ken x 20... and barely made a scratch on half power Frieza. He turned Super Saiyan and destroyed half power Frieza, even defeating maximum power Frieza. If Kaio Ken multiplied by that amount and Super Saiyan only doubles... well, he should've easily destroyed Frieza with that Kamehameha that barely scratched him. I've personally been under the impression that it multiplies another variable (not sure what, maybe just a fraction of his power? So like 180,000 x .1, then that added to the 180,000, making it 198,000 for Kaio Ken x1 on Namek, just as an example?) before adding to strength, hence Kaio Ken x1 (anything times 1 is still just the original, after all :P) still increasing his power.
For further support, also note the Saiyan Saga; Before powering up Goku was stated to be over 9,000... but Vegeta was, if I recall (if somebody has proof that I'm misrecalling, please post!), officially stated to be (at max) about 24,000 at that point. Yet Goku was still overpowered (or at best, equal to Vegeta) even at Kaio Ken times 3, which should've put him around 30,000, and barely overpowered Vegeta's Galick Gun with his Kamehameha at Kaio Ken times 4...
Also to those who said Goku could win the tournament because he always does... Didn't Goku technically only win a single tournament in his entire life? He lost to Roshi, Tien, beat Piccolo Jr., lost to Cell, resigned to take on Babidi, essentially forfeited to train Uub... And if you want to count GT (know people both love and hate it) he lost to Mugley the human there, thanks to being tickled and Vegeta distracting him. So 4 (or 5 counting GT) tournaments he fought through, counting the Cell Games, and only managed to win 1 and 2 in which he resigned/forfeited.
And to those talking about Dragon clan: Yes, it was mentioned. Guru flat out stated, at least in the manga, and I believe in the anime as well, "How could a scion of the dragon clan be killed by a saiyan? It's true saiyans are terrible, but... was he, perhaps, a Super Saiyan?" when he learned of Piccolo's/Kami's death upon the invasion.

I'm not an Asshole. You're the Asshole. ;-) Kidding ... ...
I was simply answering on one of those People who ((and this is annoying)) STUBBORNLY refuse to either believe -> that Majin-Freezer can unlock his fifth Form,
or were STUBBORNLY -> refusing to accept, that Freezer was indeed transforming into that Form, when One could STILL SEE THE WOUNDS from where Piccolo shot him into the Chest!
Seriously, Folks! HOW HARD could it possibly be, to spot that this Frostdemon was freezer?
I get it, it get it -> he could be easily be confused with his Father, but the Chest Wounds were RIGHT THERE !! Like IN YOUR FACE!
and all the People ... ...
" This isn't Freezer ... "
" This is Cold in MID-transformation between fourth and fifth Form ... ... "
" This can not be Freezer. Freezer can not transform into the fifth Form ... ... "
While the Chest Wounds were actually there - and PROVING THEM RIGHT WRONG - while they ACTUALLY went on with spouting this Crap!
Jeez'l~ouiese, Folks! HOW HARD is it NOT to be a stubborn, recalcitrant Child? Just accept that THIS FREEZER here can actually transform into the fifth Form!! The Majin-State enhances his Energy. It makes his Cells more resilient! Freezer has more Potential to dive deep into what his Species can do AND HAS the needed Majin-Durability to endure this Transformation!!
You know?
In the Ginyu Special? When Ginyu murdered Cold - and felt like he was about to probably explode any Moment ?? Frost Demons need to train their Bodies to unlock their full physical Potential. Oh my! What a Surprise ... ...
Freezer never trained, right? I could imagine Cooler trained a bit, in his Life. After all,
Cooler once stated that his Father "also" discovered the Augmentation-Forms, right?
That implies that " Cooler " had ALSO first to discover that he could transform into the fifth Form. Means -> he HADN'T had it from the Beginning!
The Majin-Boost unlocks for Freezer the fifth Form he was always to lazy to unlock himself. He even wondered that he "could" actually do that, when he saw the Ghostversion of him fighting for Raichi.
No Shit, People! Freezer CAN actually transform into the fifth Form.
Only because he never did before in this Tournament ((his living Self, not the Ghost one)) doesn't mean he isn't able to.
And this annoyed me the last Pages. People were like stubborn Antifa Members - hellbend in denying Freezer the Possibility of being able to.
Last fxxxing Time! You have two Eyes in your Heads when You are a undamaged Person. USE THEM!!! The Chest Wounds were right there!

You live up to your name that's for sure. There are warrior type namekians aka Warriors (Senshi), and the dragon type namekians are from the Dragon Clan (Ryūzoku). Even in the official Dragon Ball Online game you have Namekian Warrior and Dragon class/type/caste.

What you are missing here is that there are levels of Super Saiyan. When Piccolo was stronger than a SSJ, was against relatively entry level Super Saiyans. Before Vegeta and Trunks unlocked Ascended and Ultra, and before Goku and Gohan unlocked Full Powered Super Saiyan. If there is a doubling it is from THAT point.
IchigoMait
Vegeta used first time SS2 while being Majinized/Demonic, and while fighting Super Buu (only in the anime) and Kid Buu (in the anime they forgot to add the lightning aura that was present in the manga, ironic considering they added ss2 fight against Super Buu what wasn't in the manga).

A problem I have is the somewhat awkward delivery of lines at times.
Like the "transform yourself son" line a couple pages back.
My first thought was of just how dumb that sounds when read out loud.
Why on earth would any of them even need to be told when to do something like this after the effortless beat down they just got from piccolo?
This page the first and third line just feels off and generally kind of pointless. They are basically saying out load what can very easily be seen with the amazing artwork.
The second line feels far more natural.
veritas
I think the first line is a thought bubble so its not supposed to be said out loud its just a thought ginyus having that they are telling the reader.
As far as some of the bad dialogue part of its because they are translating from french I would assume. ginyu telling his son to transform is just a hidden jab at freeza and cooler since hes still pretending to be their dad. I dont find the line that wierd so much as the fact that that troll line by ginyu did not piss freeza off. I would assume babidi has less control over ginyu then his sons though given his higher power level and somewhat less evil motives.
Some of the poor dialogue could also be because of just how little freedom weaker majinized people have. I bet babidis mind dom severely lowers iq when its complete.

can we all look forward to cell turning into a 5th form beyond perfection? I think so!

I get that they need to cut back and forth between all the fights regularly since this all is supposed to be happening simultaneously, but I wish they'd give one or two more pages for each fight so transitioning between them didn't feel as jarring.

A few rules to follow when you post
Your comments may be deleted if they don't comply with any of the following rules. Moreover, you may be banned, depending on the content or the insistence of your messages. These rules may be applied even if your comment is about DBM!
#0. Comments, discussions or issues about the forum should stay on the forum.
#1. Do not comment about the moderation. Don't ask why your comment has been deleted either. It's out of topic. If you want to discuss it, please send your question or argument to the team (in menu "The authors")
#2. In that comment space, comments are only about DBM, and mostly about the current page. Not anything else. Debates linked to DBM but drifting to something else than the current page must not last for too long. Also, if the two sides just stand firm, then it's useless to let it go on further. For longer argument, there is the forum.
#3. Do not post insult, provocation, racist, sexist, (etc) comments.
#4. Follow the rules of the English language as much as possible. No sms.
If we consider a comment isn't readable, it'll be deleted.
On your side, don't correct the writing of other comments.
#5. No flooding. So, do not send twice (or more) the same message. Don't repeat links. Don't post comments with content written with capital letters. The 'first' and other comments of the kind are not tolerated either.
#6. Don't post ads in the comments, even if it's just once. Even if it's well writen. Even if it's about DBZ. Even if it's short.
The "Promos" page is here for that.
Don't post links, unless it had a direct connection with the current page.
#7. No “signatures” (a signature is a sentence or a link at the end of your comment, that is repeated – or not – and that doesn't have any connection with what you just said and with DBM)
#8. Please, make sure that your comment does make sense, at least a little. So, please, do not send comment that are just "yeah!" "oh!" "huh?" "pfff"... People need to know what you're talking about.
Comments are full sentences, not just one word.
#9. Do not double post (two posts one after the other). You can use the "edit" button. But you are allowed to send several comments on the same page (well, no flooding either).
#10. Do not pretend you're another commenter.
#11. Do not write several messages with exactly the same idea.
#12. No value judgement! Provocation and/or judgement (such as "you're an idiot", "you certainly are a kid", "learn to read", "your comment is rubbish", "such a debate is useless"...) are not welcomed. You comment and debate about the comics, not about the readers and their intentions. Moreover, if a debate doesn't interest you, do not take part in it.
#13. Besides, do not try to second-guess what the authors (or even the readers) have in mind. For instance: “It's obvious they're not motivated anymore”, “DBM will soon end”. You can't read people's thoughts.
#14. Please, avoid political, religious, identity, community etc... references.
#15. Do not accuse one another of this and that. For instance: a reader who dislike Bra isn't necessarily misogynous, a reader who dislikes Uub isn't necessarily a racist.
#16. Do not be extreme to the point you lose every objectivity, even if you're defending DBM. Do not think you're a moderator. So, for instance, do not write: "Don't read if you don't like it." "Go and try and draw better!" or "Stop criticizing!!" Readers may, or may not, approve of the scenario, the characters or the drawings. Debate if you wish, but stay objective. Really: do not try to do the job of the moderators, you just give them more work to do.
#17. If you ever have questions about DBM (the publication of the next page, how we work...), do not ask it here. Read the FAQ. If you can't find the answer in there, you can send a mail to the DBM team in the "The Authors" section.
#18. Do not reply to anyone who doesn't follow the rules, or your comment will be deleted as the same time as him, even if it's about DBM too.
