what do?
>>134847525
Thank God it's not this.
>>134847646
Is the guy on the far right supposed to be Radditz?
>>134847525
Toriyama has gone so far down the deep end with his "le skinny unimpressive guy is actually le most powerful guy" that at this point it has not only become a cliché, but he somehow manages to jump the shark on that cliché. He's senile. Beerus is literally the only good thing that has come out of Toriyama's comeback.
>>134847646
This deviant fanart piece of shit garbage is actually better than the Super Cyan bullshit.
>Inb4 Superdrones
We have SSJ4 (which, shit on GT as much as you want, is actually a creative concept) and an uninspired SSJ4 recolor on the one hand. On the other hand, we just have an uninspired SSJ recolor.
Honestly I was hoping it'd be Arale.

I'd take Xicor over revived Frieza any day desu.
>>134848562
Nope.
>>134848378
Are you saying the epic strong muscle guy cliche was any better?
>>134847525
Simple design, easier to animate and less likely that Toei fucks up with QUALITY.
Seems good to me.
>>134847525
I hope he has no transformation and fights exactly as he looks right now.
>>134847525
I like it. Nipples doesn't have that cringy fanfiction feel that Golden Frieza had. I think all the Universe 6 designs have been vast improvements over RF.
>>134847525
>It must be big, strong and intimidating.
I'm pretty sure Toei would never ask that of Toriyama ever these days
I seriously love how mad this guy is making people. I almost don't want him to have a transformation even though I'm pretty sure he will
>>134848653
Better? Yes. Still shit, but better.
>>134848873
I'm not particularly mad about nipples, all the other designs look pretty shit and uninspired too. Even the robot is not the best robot Toriyama has done.
Winnie-the-Pooh, another brat Saiyan, some fuck from Frieza race, Purple Namekian. Even some filler characters from the old days were better than this group.
>>134849089
>Even some filler characters from the old days were better than this group.
Hell, even some troll pictures are better than some of Toriyama's most recent designs. When shitty fanart is less shitty than the shitty original, stop writing.
>>134849172
That shitty fanart is pretty shitty
>>134849089
Oh but more recolored Saiyans is fine.
>>134848448
oh i'm fucking mad now
it really should have been arale
>>134849387
It wasn't. Super cyan, Saiyan god, Frieza recolor. All shit. Beerus and Whis and by extension Champa and Vados were the only good DB character designs he made in recent years.
That's his "fuck you" to all executives and fans not letting him rest since his planned ending at Dragon Ball.

>strongest in the universe

>>134851661
Not necessarily the strongest, but Beerus says this is the guy that's gave him the worst fight in the past, before he met Goku, and not counting Whis.
Beerus hasn't fought Arale yet, so of course he doesn't know of her power.
Im pretty sure this guy is gonna be a transformation based character
>>134848763

So much shit taste in this thread, nipples is fine. It's like you don't know dragon ball outside the dub and funi rock song inserts
Pooh, notFreeza, and shota saiyan also look interesting enough.
So when is Toriyama finally going to announce that Dragon Ball, Dragon Quest, Blue Dragon and, Chrono Trigger are all in the same universe?

>>134847525
I don't mind funny designs for strong guys. Beerus is funny, but he's also a great design.
This is just lazy bland garbage. Probably the most boring alien and most boring character visually toriyama has designed in all of dragon ball.
When are Toei & Toriyama just going to fucking stop?
Dragonball has been dead for so long.

I'm sure you'd sell millions of yen if were to follow your advice.
Where's your hit TV show and manga, by the way?
Is GT canon? I got into a argument with a friend, him saying that GT could be a possible future, that Super isn't a prequel to the films (Battle of Gods and Resurrection of F) because they're being rewritten in the show. Is he correct?
>>134848663
>>134848829
>>134848853
Even the Toriyama cocksuckers have such pathetic counter arguments at how lazy the designs.
One thing you idiots forget to think about is that Toriyama had years, literally years to come up with this designs with no pressure at all and this is the fucking best he could come up with.
Absolute trash and it looks fucking stupid. Beerus is your counter arguement? At least Beerus looks badass and not some faggy 90s anime cartoon evil henchmen look a like. What in this entire design is creative and interesting? Nothing.
Toriyama lost his marbles if he thinks this can pass off as being a top tier fighter. This isn't One Piece where you can get away with goofy shit, this is DBZ where they take themselves too seriously. Fuck this.
>>134860038
>Toriyama had years
He wasn't working on DB all those years. What the fuck are you even.
>this is DBZ where they take themselves too seriously. Fuck this.
Oh, it's bait.
>>134860204
I was referring to brainstorming idea for Super you idiot.
Of course he's stronger than Goku.
He's probably immune to lasers too.
>>134860038
DB is funny, faggot. I read it only because it makes me laugh.
>>134860038
>Even the Toriyama cocksuckers have such pathetic counter arguments at how lazy the designs.
So you never played Chrono Trigger.
Silly designs has always been a Toriyama staple.
>>134860319
>I was referring to brainstorming idea for Super you idiot.
It's fine if it left you this salty, you DBZ secondary.
>>134860736
Compare Robo from Chrono Trigger to the new Robot from Champa's universe.
It's incomparably worse. Toriyama just doesn't give a fuck anymore.
And good god, how can you even imply Chrono Trigger's character design is so fucking bad it could produce Leotard Nipplelord.
>>134860976
>he doesn't know about the Nu
>he wants a Robo copypaste from Chrono Trigger in DBS
You have the creativity of a grapefruit.
>>134860569
After all these memes.. I'm wondering if Super will just cut this part out and have him fall some other way.
>>134861042
>Goku tripped on a pebble and went back to base form
I can't wait.
>>134861042
It's not even a meme, it's just some faggot trying to make it more than it is, while ignoring the time yajarobi snuck up on great ape vegeta and cut off his tail, or when vegeta lowered his power level so fucking krillin could mortally injure him.
>>134861039
The Nu are not only literally low-tier goons, they still look better than the NippleLord.
>>he wants a Robo copypaste from Chrono Trigger in DBS
Nice strawman you apologist cocksucker. My point with bringing up Robo is that Toriyama is capable of designing really good looking mecha. The new robot looks like a cheap toy, it's fucking shit by comparison.
>>134854451
>Universe 6's earth got destroyed by this motherfucker
>>134861177
>Comparing an attack to the Saiyan's weak point to getting one-shot by a shitty laser ring.

>>134861177
>lowered his power level so fucking krillin could mortally injure him
My problem with that is at what point did Goku lower his power level? He was still Super Cyan so that really doesn't make sense to me.
>>134861139
Funniest one I've seen.
>>134861177
>while ignoring the time yajarobi snuck up on great ape vegeta and cut off his tail,
>is just like being in peak god form before a grunt lasered him in the chest
How?
>or when vegeta lowered his power level so fucking krillin could mortally injure him.
Goku was still in SSGSS mode.
Here, watch the clip and tell me how your analogies are even remotely comparable to what happened here.
>>134861186
>The Nu are not only literally low-tier goons
>He doesn't know that in the Chronoverse Nus are the most naturally powerful being
Fucking play it and get back to me.
>>134861186
>Toriyama is capable of designing really good looking mecha.
Toriyama designed for animation and not for a video game here.
In anime, things are simplified so that they can be animated easier.
Are you retarded?
>>134861285
They are low level shitters from the Cursed Woods shut your stupid face.
>>134861313
And? Holy fuck even Dragon Ball had better looking mecha than this toy looking motherfucker. Stop sucking toriyama's dick, I don't expect something that looks as detailed as Robo, I just expect something that doesn't look like shit.
>>134861368
>They are low level shitters from the Cursed Woods
So you never finished Chrono Trigger, huh?
>>134861489
You aren't even trying anymore are you?
>>134861368
>Dragon Ball had better looking mecha
Nostalgiafaggotry at its finest.
>>134861549
>he doesn't know about the Nu built by Belthasar
Jesus Christ, a secondary in Chrono Trigger and Dragon Ball.
>>134861250
Sorbet is a space ninja.
>>134861554
That is a better design then than a nipplefart over there.
>>134860569
Here we go again.
>>134861674
>That is a better design
>People think the tournament will go as planned.
It's Dragon Ball, people. Something is going to turn horrible wrong.
>>134847646
Really?
Is it really fair to use this as a bad example when one of the new fighters is literally NotFreeza?
We just finished giving Freeza a fucking revival arc, we couldn't put the design away for one fucking arc?
It's kind of hard to make fun of the Latin fanbase went two of the designs in the new group are completely unfucking inspired.
>>134862493
>Is it really fair to use this as a bad example when one of the new fighters is literally NotFreeza?
Wait, you think that's a good design?
>>134861042
If they're smart, they'll have Sorbert distract Goku, and then have Freeza be the one to shoot the laser.
They won't, though.
>>134862522
The point I'm making is that it's kind of fresh to be making fun of people who were like GRR NO ALTERNATE UNIVERSE SSJ4 BROLLY, NO BAD GOKU, which is completely uninspired, when we have a character that is literally a recolor of Freeza on the other team.
It's just as uninspired as using an alternate version of another Saiyan character. MMORPG Saiyan-kid doesn't help much either.
>>134847525
I'm loving this, going back to his roots where comedy is part of the main focus of the series.
can't wait to see what's happening next
>>134861243
well his aura is down, and since he's neither fighting nor powering up.
you know I think people would give this less shit if this would happen a lot more in the manga. or if was warned more about this weakness.
>>134862631
People not seeing the brilliance in design in alternate Frieza. Maybe if you idiots could open your eyes and see the difference, you wouldnt post utter drivel.
>>134862631
>when we have a character that is literally a recolor of Freeza on the other team.
That's like saying SSJ3 is a Super Saiyan recolor of Raditz with little tweaks here and there.
>>134861250
ok I'm not apologising for any thing here, buy you want to understand why this shit happend.
you ever been suckered punched? shit like that can take the strongest guy down when he or she is not prepared for it.
now it's a tiny lazer that sicker punched goku, toriyama said you can only build muscles so far it's ki that's allows these guys to do the extraordinary.
ki control is very difficult for many thus why goku didn't just have a ki shield up. ki needs to be focused and goku's focus was on freeza who was on his hands and knees. Goku won the fight, his defence was down knowing freeza's ki was dropping. just like on namek, he wasn't a challenge anymore. now you ask he's in super saiyan blue wtf?! even in blue the body is still susceptible to outside attacks, and weapons.
now goku isn't fully god mode, he's more like a demi - god and even then japanese gods are different compared to western style gods.
eastern style gods can have mortal like bodies and be killed, what makes them imortal is that they can reborn as the same god with all their past memories.
I'm getting off topic but that's a eastern god.
now the lazer itself, this is advanced alien tech, mind you they were able to take freeza's body parts and put then back together with their alien spooj. it's surfing to say that if there is tech that can make humans stronger than freeza, then there is alien tech that piece some one in the heart while he is not looking.
>>134863194
>shit like that can take the strongest guy down when he or she is not prepared for it.
Weaksauce shit senpai.
>>134863194
>ki control is very difficult for many thus why goku didn't just have a ki shield up.
Nice headcanon.
>>134848562
yes
>>134848562
Maybe.
>>134848562
Easily
>>134860569
He never changed.
>>134863265
if it's so easy why doesn't farmer John do it.
do you even read dragonball?
>>134863479
Goku was able to keep his ki up before and only got damaged by lasers from people within his power level.
This is the first time he's even been blindsided by a being many magnitudes less powerful than him, and you know it.
>>134863253
Saitama is on a whole new level of stupid strong, don't use logic of one series to explain a completely different series.
>>134863479
>if it's so easy why doesn't farmer John do it.
>implying Farmer John can't
>>134863502
the lazer that was blocked by goku's dragonball?
>>134863530
then explain why roshi, took 50 years to make the kamehameha?
>>134863537
That doesn't explain why someone many magnitudes weaker than him was able to laser him.
>>134863561
>Reminder that Goku picked up that shit right away
Wait are people actually defending Toriyama inputting that a laser gun by a hencemen of Frieza was enough to take out Goku? Really? The discussion has dissolved to that.
>>134863502
you mean by a lazer that was alien tech? and tech that in the past created androids that fucked up super saiyans?>>134863510
>>134863587
>you mean by a lazer that was alien tech?
Are you claiming that the alien tech is somehow a universe-busting laser?
Oh boy I can sniff another power level thread again.
>>134863253
inb4 narutoforums copypasta
>>134863584
my point is the ki is difficult to control, never said goku had that much difficulty, just ment it as a general thing, plus that was goku's fault for being too over confident.
>>134863567
the lazer in question can have nothing to do with ki but acts like a gun. when the guard is down a high tech alien lazer can snipe goku's shit.
>>134863666
Goku can tank planet destroying blasts but pee wee shooter is enough to take him out? What?
>>134863613
no, but are you claiming that goku is impervious to attacks while his gaurd is down, or that he is superman and has invicibility?
>>134863666
>my point is the ki is difficult to control
He can tank a universe-busting punch but not a piddly laser?
>>134863694
he can take on one that he sees coming yes, when his gaurd is down he's easily killed.
>>134863700
>no
I accept your concession.
Goku is weaksauce if he drops his guard so low as to make him vulnerable to a laser pointer.
>>134863716
are you having a hard time understanding this or is it that you are really salty over something that points out the fact that goku is a mortal and not god?
>>134863740
yeah, just like you, I think your ego is out of control here. I was saying goku could be taken out when his gaurd is down, I never said the other way around.
>>134863768
He was tanking bullets and lasers when he was a kid.
>>134863768
Goku is a god at this point you fucking idiot, even Beerus admitted it.
>>134863803
>I was saying goku could be taken out when his gaurd is down
Not by someone weaker than him. Ginyu's power level wasn't far off his and yet when he got the drop on him it didn't affect him the same way Sorbet's laser did.
>>134863817
bullets aren't lazers, and your pick shows he blocking one, why is this so hard to understand? Goku, when his gaurd is down can be taken out. gaurd up he is much harder to kill.
>>134863831
no he didnt, chill your autism, goku has some god ki, he now has a means of fighting gods.
>>134863863
He can take on universe-ending punches but some laser from a grunt is enough to do him in?
Come on, now.
>>134863848
I never said it couldn't be by some one weaker than him, I was pointing out goku, when his gaurd is down, can be killed.
>>134863929
Not by someone weaker than him and definitely not by a laser from some grunt.
>>134862796
the weakness was literally stated in the same movie
you have to be a kid to not understand it
>>134863921
using ssjg and comparing it to ssj blue your problem here, ssj blue is a means of using god ki, ssjg is full on god ki. even then you are trying to compare what you think a god is capable of to what they do in the series.
>>134863905
You were saying? And this was Goku in his previous form you dipshit.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZmN79SDUlc&feature=youtu.be&t=65
>>134863970
obviously he can, I was pointing out the fact that there tech that is pretty powerful, it doesn't take a strong man to fire a gun, same with a lazer.
>>134863976
yet we're getting people who are over thinking lazers can't do shit to goku
>>134864003
>I was pointing out the fact that there tech that is pretty powerful
Not as powerful as a universe buster.
The last time Goku was lasered to the heart, it was by Piccolo and their power levels weren't that far apart.
>>134863977
Are you saying that SSJ Blue is weaker than SSG?
>>134863921
SSJB > SSG or else Freeza would've raped them.
>>134863981
you are comparing Bog to RoF you fucking sperg, if he was still full GOD then why did he revert back? ssjg was a a temporary thing, in the same movie he said goku managed to keep some of the god energy and make it his own, SOME of the god energy, jesus why is this so hard for you to understand.
>>134864055
It is.
>>134864055
yes, blue isn't there yet but can become stronger than god, but not yet.
>>134864068
you have no proof of that, ssjg wasn't even fully utilized till goku ran out of time.
>Goku could beat Superman
>>134864029
A metal sword in the hands of a character who can't even control ki cut off oozaru vegeta's tail. A being that is easily a planet buster at the very least.
The leader of a space empire with tech great enough to regenerate frieza from kibbles and bits has a laser that kills a galaxy buster.
You are trying so hard to make it seem like goku getting killed by a laser is some unforgivable sin that DB fans will never live down, when we don't even care/you can't understand the consistency of surprise attacks in DB being actually effective
>>134864003
You are just arguing with stupid, baiting kid you know?
In the same film Whis states to goku that he drops guard to easily and it will lead to his downfall
In the SAME FUCKING film he got his lesson when some fucktard turd blasted his chest with laser
Back in the DBZ just some stupid rock thrown by krilin could do some damage hurting like hell
In manga and anime its showed multiple times that in one moment powered up guys shrug off ki blasts but underpowered, tired etc that fucking blast do actual damage
You are trying to elcture guy that strongman should tank
1. Hit coming from weak guy who run at him from 15m distance yelling that he will punch his bals
2. Suprise falkon-punch his balls when he's not suspecting anything
In first example he can easily avoid damage. In second you can take anyone to his knees
Just ignore that fucktard spamming /a/ everyday with his laser goku meme
>>134864082
>>134864094
>>134864134
This headcanon bullshit tho.
>>134864068
Let's follow your logic here.
>SSJG gave Beerus a good fight even though Beerus was still stronger.
>SSJB stronger than SSJG would mean that it could possibly be stronger than Beerus
>Golden Frieza was stronger than than SSJB at the beginning of the fight before his power started going down
>Golden Frieza shat himself when he noticed a weaker being(Beerus) just standing in the distance
See how SSJB > SSJG just dowsn't make sense?
Plus, SSJG requires a whole ritual and 5 saiyans, SSJB just requires training to be able to use god ki.
>>134864082
>>134864094
>>134864134
>Goku and Vegeta trains with Whis
>they somehow become less strong than Super Saiyan God
For what purpose?
>>134864382
no its not, your ssjblue being stronger is head canon.
>>134848562
with One Punch
>>134864392
Let's follow your logic here.
see >>134864403
You're an idiot.
>Golden Frieza shat himself when he noticed a weaker being(Beerus) just standing in the distance
Beerus defeated SSG at 70%.
SSG < SSB < Beerus.
>>134864403
they have to build up to that power, they don't want to rely on getting ki from other saiyans. ssjg was just a cheat, to show the stage of power to climb to. this is the whole point of the wholes series. hard work trumps power that is just given, but you got to work for it.
>>134864470
>they have to build up to that power, they don't want to rely on getting ki from other saiyans.
Show me where in the canon material was it ever stated that SSB is weaker than SSG.
man you guys are fuckin pathetic arguing about kid cartoons n shit
>>134864443
doesn't mean freeza was stronger than ssjg, you seemed to think goku stayed at that power level after he lost ssjg. he didnt, or he would have turned ssjblue.
Name one legit funny moment from Dragon Ball Super.
I'll wait.
>>134864538
>doesn't mean freeza was stronger than ssjg
Citation Needed on your claim that Freeza is weaker than SSJG.
>>134864524
show where it was, it's simple story telling, if goku was able to take beerus to 70% just in god mode, then he would have no problem taking him on before freeza showed up.
>>134864565
where's your proof that he was stronger? you have none, goku explains he got a taste of God power, thus his blue form, but they never state that blue was stronger.
>>134864570
>show where it was, it's simple story telling
>no citation
I accept your concession.
>>134864607
there was no concession you shit lord, you have no proof either so all your banter is fucking moot.
>>134864603
>where's your proof that he was stronger?
You're the claiming that they trained in order to get a weaker version of SSG. Now it's time for you to prove it. Burden of proof.
>>134864563
Goku nearly killing Krillin with one punch
>>134864627
*the one claiming
>>134864625
So you have no proof of what you're saying?
>>134864627
ok, then why is vegeta, now as strong as goku? he never went god mode, yet now he's stronger than ssjg?
where is your proof that Blue is stronger, stop being a hypocritical faggot
>>134864653
neither do you it would seem.
>>134864682
SSB being stronger than SSG after intense training makes more sense than your fanon, tho.
>>134864627
I am claiming that they are training to gain the same power of ssjgod, with out needing other saiyans you fucking moron.
>>134864667
Because he was training with Whis. Duh.
>>134864627
Why did you assume they aren't still training?
They'll most likely reach SSJG power and probably surpass it on their own, their just not there yet.
>>134864719
so no proof, I accept your concession.
>>134864729
Nice headcanon.
>>134864754
>he has no proof with his claim yet asks me for proof when all I said was he's wrong and he should prove his claim
Burden of proof.
>>134864763
so he got there in a matter of months? you don't seem to understand the point of train and the struggle

I accept your concession.
So why cant super cyan just be 91% as strong as beerus if ssg was 90%
That seems to be the best middle of the road solution here.
>>134864879
well toriyama went on record saying goku in god mode was able to push beerus to 70%.
my thought in the matter was since they got this radical power up by sharing ki it's natural that they would want to achieve it on their own, goku even says that in the movie, so now to activate that God ki, goku and vegeta have to train to get that ki and go beyond what was felt from ssjg.
there are some people who are saying they are already there, but if this was true why does goku need to train with whis when he would be supposedly stronger than god alread? the answer is that goku has to train to gain that power again so he doesn't need the whole saiyan holding hands bit.
>>134864879
or its just neither are stronger ssj blue was just a means of achieving the same power as ssjg with out the saiyan ceremony
>>134863458
Fuck you, Tao Pai Pai was stronger than him! Goku didn't even put up a fight against him!
This fanbase is full of jackasses
>>134863010
>That's like saying SSJ3 is a Super Saiyan recolor of Raditz with little tweaks here and there.
A----are you fucking serious,.
The guy is blue Freeza.
We cannot, we CAN NOT be this fucking desperate to defend everything and anything Super does to ignore the fact that we have a literal Freeza recolor in the line up there.
>>134865077
oh yeah, though this one has shoes, but did you look at the namek recolor?
>>134859925
You and your friend are retarded.
>>134865077
Frieza has a race you know.
>>134865246
it's a clan aparently, his race however is that he's alien, and his clan are of mutants of that family. though that doesn't make much sense.
>>134865077
Fucking hell there are actually people denying that it's just recolor of freeza.

Why are you all being fucking fags. Everyone else in the damn series has super muscles? Can you guys not take a joke and accept that this guy is more than outer appearance.
It's sad when you guys don't even understand something as simple as this.
>>134864975
>there are some people who are saying they are already there, but if this was true why does goku need to train with whis when he would be supposedly stronger than god alread?
The main issue is that you're mixing up movie with the tv show. In Super, it was said that Goku (in SSJ) was just as strong as SSJ God after he absorbed its power - and it was never stated just how much power Beerus used against him.
So you can have Goku surpassing SSJ God afterwards with training, but still being bellow Beerus even with SSJGSS.
>>134866108
yes it was, in an interview with toriyama he said goku was able to get beerus up to 70% here I'll find you the interview
>>134864563
Mr. Satan and Gohan play fighting over Pan.
>>134866108
sorry that took so long it was in the movie beerus said he used about 70%
but here it says ssjgod is 6 to beerus 10. whis being 15

Concession of what? The burden of proof of your claim that SSGSS is weaker than SSG is on your hands.
>>134867343
what? no I'm saying they are training to get there, and beyond. goku didn't keep all the god ki right, so now he has to train what he does have to surpass the previous god mode. blue is going to get him there he's just not there yet. remember he didn't keep all the god power at the end of battle of the gods, so now we got a demi god who doesn't need the hand holding.
>>134864392
They fucked up because they regret putting Beerus on SSJG level. So they increased beerus power so he can be stronger than Saitama and Superman.
DBS has shit quality so they had to give a shit excuse to the fandom to like this shit
>>134867473
wow you're retarded. they littereally just said he didn't keep all the god power. did vegeta keep his power after he got his tail cut off in the saiyan saga? no, so now goku wants to train by his own streagth to get that same power. it's not that hard.

Thanks for confirming.
>>134867870
I accept your concession.
This is so fucking retarded. Vegeta had to intentionally lower even his base powerlevel to allow Crilin to hit him. Goku was still in SSJ God Form which means his base powerlevel is beyond fucking retarded even without any boosting or charging up, yet a stupid machine laser KO'ed him.
The only thing more insufferable than this asspull are the people trying to defend it.
>>134867910

That lazorz? Whel maybe you and other fucking retard incapable of explanating shit taki in acc some facts: laser made to kill goku when his guard is down. Made by aliens using tech to repair body from parts. Aliens that used space ships in times when on earth Bulma and Co builded space ship just by copypasting namek ship tech.
And that fucktards humans created cyborg stronger than SSJ before they even knew that Goku can transform into one.
And look, we have alien with more tech ahead of earth one.
Your fucking problem is only little laser because you retards want ultra big guns to kill actuall characters. Toriyama was always about using this shit. remember Buu turning people into chocolate and gaining his power? Gotenks, Piccolo and Gohan lost by this way.
Just get the fuck out with you "laser cant kill goku" shit. Whats next? "Superman can beat goku" shit?

Fuck, it's spot-on
Obvious plagiarism
For goku to be defeated by a laser of the kind used by Frezer's grunt soldiers, he should have lowered his powerlevels to less than 1200, and considering how much he trained, he should have at least one million powerlevels in his base form, off guard.
Therefore, goku went full retarded and not only lowered his guard against a villain well known for pulling low blows when he's getting desperate, he also lowered his ki to levels so low, even lower than in base form, that even Chiaotzu could one shoot him.

Funny how in the entire dragonball-verse such tactics where never employed or even hinted at, with even kid-goku effortlessly bouncing bullets and rockets like they were nothing
yet now that they've basically reached the level of gods a stupid mortal-made laser can one-shot them with ease.

Dumb rock throwed at him (being in fucking perma SSJ) caused extreme pain. What now?
Freeza congratulated his minion in "just as planned" mode.
And sure, EVRY FUCKING ONE know how stron was that laser. For christ sake.
ANd what? By being god you are perma-immortal? Kai was the god of our region ang get fucked by cell bomb. Fucking others Kais shited his pants when buu started doing shit. When beerus awakened they again shited themself. And they are fucking gods of our universe.
The main problem is:
1. Main character being mortaly wounded not by ULTRA POWERED DOOM CANNON but by laser. You all cant accept it
2. There are moves that can make serious pain or incapitate even the strongest guys. Remember Majin Vegeta sucker punching Goku near neck point and incapitating him?
I dont care anymore, do your shit woth your HE WAS HIT BY THE FUCKING LASER BUTT I WANT SOMETHING BIIIG BAAAW
>>134870434
So that laser has what, a million powerlevel?
Two? Three?
How much do you think "base" SSJG Goku's worth for it to hit like that?
>>134870468
The main problem is that at those level of Ki powers human tech weapons shouldn't count at all, not to mention how anti-climatic and stupid it is.
>>134870473
So the laser has the power level stronger than his off guard power level
that's how it worked out
>>134870468
Cry more, babby. People aren't gonna buy this bullshit.
>>134870525

>>134870525
Bullshit. That ring better have cosmic properties lol
>>134870547
No, it's not hard to follow this.
it can release enough power to kill a guy who was not prepared to face it.
It doesn't matter what this person can destroy
>>134870623
In the dragonball-verse power output IS also defense. If that weapon can pierce a defense of millions of powerlevel it means it can release enough energy to pulverize a planet.
>>134869417
Yes, that's exactly it. That was the whole point Whis wanted to drive home.
>>134870722
No he's not. There's a big difference between putting yourself off-guard and purposefully lower all your defences to the very minimum like Vegeta did.
>>134870701
No
in dragon ball you can release ki attacks like the kamehameha that output higher than your body
even piccolo did this with this Makankosappo
>>134870825
These are just exceptions, point stands.
>>134870870
they are not exceptions
it has always worked like this
anything else?
>>134870701
Planet busting is not something big in DB when Vegeta can do it and most of freeza soldiers on namek were stronger than him. At least most of guys shown
>>134870885
Ki soldiers, yes, hand-held weapons no.
>>134870788
No, there isn't. Their defences are active, not passive. Imagine when someone punches you in the gut and you instinctively contract your muscles, it's just like that, except it's a "shield" of Ki around (and possibly inside) them instead of just muscles. Goku has a habit of dropping that way too low when he thinks he has won, which is exactly what Whis said.
It's not hard, it's stated pretty clearly.
>>134870881
Anything else what? People's powerlevels equating not only to their attack but their defense too has always been a staple of the series. A weapon able to surpass said defenses must have an energy output similar to those planet-busting Ki attacks.
>>134870975
>Their defences are active, not passive
Total headcanon. A defenseless, off-guard Roshi doesn't have the same defense as a defenseless, off-guard Cell.
>>134871022
>Total headcanon
Wrong see this.
>>134868441
Is Roshi stronger than Yamcha?
>>134871072
You mean this? >>134870007
>>134871099
Nope this >>134868441 hence why I referred you to it.
>>134871072
Minimum implies both a normal and heightened power-level.
Goku going off-guard should take him from maximum to normal status not the minimum completely defenseless state Vegeta did purposefully.
That collage is fucking stupid and doesn't understand the very dialogue it quotes.

>>134871197
>Irony the post
DBZ fans continuously shit on every aspect of their show but still remain fans of it. Abused spouses.
>>134871022
Difference is Cell is not human so his base defences are probably still very strong, since his body is probably a thousand times stronger than a human one (much denser muscles and bones, for one), and he got some absurd regeneration on top of that. However the point still stands even for Cell, if he dropped his defences all that would be left is his body with no added strength (which might still be too much for a normal human to damage, but is nothing to the Z-fighters).
Also going back to the muscle example, if you are a massive hulking bear of a man that is a mountain of muscle you won't need to put much effort into taking the punch to the gut, while if you are an out of shape skinnyfat /a/non you're gonna have to contract those muscles hard unless you want to go to the hospital.
The same goes for people in DB, ever notice how someone like SSJ Goku can tank a planet-busting ki blast to the face with little effort while weaker fighters need to give it their all to resist it? Someone like Cell doesn't need much effort to just keep his Ki up to a level were a gun won't hurt him, unlike Roshi.
>>134871244
That's Goku jumping from normal to maximum, yes.
It still doesn't explain why SSJG Goku here would purposefully make himself super-weak instead of just dropping to normal base power.
>>134871270
Why would anyone drop "all their defenses" instead of just going normal?
Still no answer in sight.
>>134871294
>It still doesn't explain why SSJG Goku here would purposefully make himself super-weak
Yes it does three panel.
>>134868210
That's a fucking lie. How can you retards be so misinformed when a simple google search would you wrong? To get SSGSS you need to be a "Saiyan beyond god" that means you've already absorbed SSG's power into your base form, so obviously a powerup from sayian beyond god would logically be stronger than SSG. Literally know what you're talking about before you start spouting bullshit as fact. Here I'll spoonfeed you.

>>134871270
Exactly it doesn't make any fucking sense that a stupid laser would take him down, even if taken off-guard.
see >>134869417
>>134871357
Because Goku is extremely cocky and overly confident, this was plainly stated by Whis more than once.
>>134871357
Normal is all their defenses dropped.
Future trunks only had a power level of 5 before he began to power up. It most likely applies to the entire team
ITT
Retards who cannot grasp that there's a status called "normal" between maximum (fighting stance) and minimum (the thing Vegeta did to get hurt) which makes no sense for Goku to be taken down like that when even his off-guard, normal state should rake in millions of Ki defense.
>>134871399
Would that laser beam take down a normal human? If the answer is yes, then it makes sense. He lowered his guard completely, see >>134871406 , at that point he had the same resistance to that laser as a normal human, perhaps a little more but not much.
Now that it was stupid that he'd be so cocky he didn't even bother keeping his sense up to notice the guy shooting a laser at him or that he'd be so cocky to lower his defences completely is another matter, but it is perfectly logical within the rules that have been stated ever since Frieza saga.
>>134871294
Are the millenials a bunch of retard?
I can't understand how you still can't understand the concept of Ki in DB.
>>134868465
It was explained during the ginyu fight on namek. Goku was keeping his power at basically nothing then spiking it extremely high whenever he made an attack
>>134871446
>Normal is all their defenses dropped.
Nope that's minimum, as Vegeta specifically said.
>>134871454
You don't understand what he meant with normal, the guy who came up with it probably meant "normal" as "medium level". Normal IS NOT his standard state, he would not be in normal mode sitting at home watching TV, he would be at minimum.
>>134871470
Actually I think I do much better than you who seem unable to fluctuate to anything but "FULL POWER" and "NO POWER AT ALL".
>>134871446
>Normal is all their defenses dropped.
Headcanon again? >>134870007
>>134871511
The manga says otherwise.
>>134871511
Normal is normal. Normal state. Goku sitting on his couch is in normal state. Goku lowering all of his Ki to zero is minimum, which has to be done purposefully as Vegeta stated.
>>134863666
>when his guard is down he's easy to kill
Then why didn't he die when Bulma shot him in the very beginning. He certainly didn't expect the gun to fire a bullet.
>>134847525
End Super. Re-air GT.
>>134871244
Even here Goku mantained a steady 5000 even when "off guard", which sould be at least 100x times higher now that he's SSJG
yet somehow a stupid laser weapon manages to pierce through anyway.
>>134871244
This desu most characters in the series do this
Z Babies: The tread!
Alright lets try to put it in a way retards can understand it:
Forget normal (which isn't even stated anywhere official, that was just something an anon came up with), forget everything in fact, lets do this from the bottom up.
Goku is fighting Frieza, while he is fighting Frieza he keeps fluctuating his power between, say, 30% to 90% (this is how much Ki he continuously expends, 100% being the maximum he can fight at, NOT his total Ki reserves), this because Ki is not infinite and he does not want to run out of it like Frieza eventually did. Now when he is at those levels, his Ki protects him, whether it's passive or active we don't know, but it's fair to say it is passive, which means he does not need to manually raise or lower his Ki around his body to tank blows, but he will need to up his consumption of it to take stronger blows. Imagine Ki being like a shield or armour around him, when he is down to 1% it is much weaker than when he is at 30%.
Now, when Goku is not fighting, there is no reason for him to even stay at 0.0000001%. Because he is so cocky, he goes down to that level in front of Frieza, at which point he isn't that much stronger than a normal human.
>b-but why was his hair still blue
Because SSJ is like a multiplier, if his base power is down to basically 0% it doesn't matter if he's SSJ594 because x*0 = 0.
>b-but he needs to keep it high to be SSJ
Only when it is not mastered, we've seen that after it has been mastered they can stay SSJ basically forever no problem.
>>134871454

Retarded fanboys who can't accept that DB is broken.
>>134871608
>>134871675
"Normal" doesn't exist you autists, it was just a level some anon came up with to illustrate his point, there is no such thing as "normal".
You're Americans aren't you?
>>134871684
Kid Goku didn't know how to control his ki so he walked around at max power now go kill your self.
>>134871469
>a little more resistance than a normal human
I didn't know above average humans can tank shotgun blasts to the face because that's what 12 year old Goku did.

Maybe because it's not how the tone of the previous series was.......... There was tension and seriously good fighting and shit got real. In this, its like "where's the action bro?"
>>134871675
Kinda weird. Goku with a powerlevel of 10 when he first got shot in the head and met bulma didn't phase him in the first Dragonball. ??????
This better be some multi galaxy destructing laser ring... God form should be just that, it shouldn't matter if he's not on gaurd. Why have such a title?
>>134871969
This guy seems the be one of the handful of people here who knows what he's talking about,
>>134860976
What's wrong with you? I think Robo is a better design, but how is this robot any bad? Look at it, it looks fucking great, probably the best design Toriyama has made for Dragon Ball since perfect Cell.
>>134871969
Wrong. When they were participating in those budokai powerlevel detection punching machines, all the warriors had to purposely drop their powerlevels below their regular relaxed state to not break it, so even when they aren't buffing themselves with their ki aura, they are ridiculously strong
>>134871969
God, we KNOW that Goku was suppressing his power. The point that everyone is making when we complain about the scene is that Goku's being retarded, Freeza's in front of him and he nas no reason to drop his power, he should have sensed or seen Sorbet, he's out of character considering he has been taught twice already he shouldn't be overconfident and he has lectured his opponents in the past about dropping their guard. It's a fucking retarded scenes for more reasons outside of power levels.
>>134848932
anon confirmed for muscle fetishist
As a saiyajin that is unacceptable though.
They are just naturally tougher it doesn't matter.
That's why bullets and nukes didn't kill kid goku in Dragonball..... And back then he was just a human with a tail until z..... So I can't accept this newfound bs explanation which makes the entire casts vulnerability/durability pure shit and fodder.....
I swear this show is turning straight bitch, it used to go hard.
We will never get an over the top blinding speeds, craters, going through star systems, fighting in core of planets, destroying galaxies/ universes by the sheer impact of battles and transforming, the series could be so much more like a true fighting series.
This series is only the comedy of Dragonball...
May the action. R.I.P, and there's my fandom. One punch man set the stage for action, asuras wrath, Jojo, one piece, toriko, baki the grappler, shin hokuto no Ken, Dragonball should go ALL out.
I like edgy more than conservative.
People who think the show was not heavy action clearly never watched the series..........

Toriyama loves to make the strongest characters the most unassuming.
>>134869417
Sorbet was not a grunt, he was the general who took control of Frieza's army in his absence. And he put a specific emphasis on advancing their technology, like with the new healing tank. I'm not saying that Ressurection of F isn't stupid as hell, but Sorbet's laser was probably the most powerful weapon in the universe short of an Earth android.
>>134870473
Remember that Goku is specifically called out on relaxing too much though. So, his drop is bigger than usual.
Also, don't forget Yajirobe cutting Vegeta's tail, when it had been stated that Vegeta had eliminated his tail weakness.
>>134871684
you dipshit
Shit like that can't pierce him. A laser or a concentrated ki blast that is "sharp" can. Think Frieza's lazer or a destructo beam that is extremely sharp.
A normal ki blast can't hurt him, but the laser isn't like that.
Throughout Dragonball, that difference has been made apparent. How have you watched all of Dragonball and not have realized that? The only time this isn't true is when a fighter is so powerful that when it's directly in front of him, he is able to catch it, deflect it, or concentrate his ki so that the "sharp" blast doesn't pierce the skin.
>>134874342
Vegeta wasn't off guard, Yajirobe just had a superior japanese katana.
>>134873077
>That's why bullets and nukes didn't kill kid goku in Dragonball...
This wasn't a "bullet" though. It was a laser ring used by the commander of Freeza's army. Common soldiers with a PL around 1000 still use laser guns. This ring has to certainly be stronger than that at least.
>>134873077
>That's why bullets and nukes didn't kill kid goku in Dragonball...
Bullets caused pain to him in the beginning of Dragonball, just no serious wound. And, yet, after defeating Tao Pai Pai, he still took similar damage from a surprise shot, showing that his baseline wasn't really rising even if his fighting strength and resistance were.
>>134873077
>We will never get an over the top blinding speeds, craters, going through star systems, fighting in core of planets
Beerus and Champa already did that in the manga.
>destroying galaxies/ universes by the sheer impact of battles
That almost happened in the anime, but Beerus absorbed the explosion.

Thanks anon, now I want Bismuth. Hope it doesn't give me cancer.

DNA from sperm of former partners lingers in female flies, maybe humans from the Dragon World are like that.
Goku was NTR'd by Yamucha, that's why Gohan looks like Yamucha, but turns into a SSJ, he has the DNA of both.
>>134874342
Man, I really think you're taking Whis' comment the wrong way. When he said relax, he didn't mean that Goku relaxed his ki or somehow made his body vulnerable through ki. He just meant that he relaxes to the point of being caught off guard.
A powerful warrior who is caught off guard is always vulnerable to those sharp ki blasts. However, no matter how sharp a ki blast is, someone who is extremely powerful can deflect, catch, or I guess concentrate his ki so much that the sharp ki blast doesn't affect him.
For example, Trunks sword was acting like a sharp ki blast because he put his speed and ki into the sword as he swung it. Had Goku not been aware of the fact that Trunks would swing at him, he would have died. However, he knew Trunks would swing it at him so he concentrated his ki onto his finger so the sword could not pierce his skin.
Being powered up makes no difference when it comes to sharp ki blasts. It's not like they're skin is automatically "hardened" as they get stronger.

>>134847525
Here's is the actual explanation as to why the laser hurt Goku.
People keep asking why Goku lowered his power so much, and the explanation is given on his fight against Ginyu. Goku uses his power in bursts, meaning in a couple of seconds he elevates his power to the max to attack and defend, but when he isn't attacking or defending he lowers his power to the minimum to conserve energy.
I'll post a couple of the pages.
>>134874768
Majin Pooh will win the thing. Be's been through the toughest shit.
>>134875371
Doesn't work, his power is still extremely high even at its minimum that I laser shouldn't hurt him.
You are really pulling shit out of your ass, he is a god for god's sake.
>>134872888
The entire point of the movie is that Goku and Vegeta still have flaws that they need to get past, and the movie addresses and shows these flaws very directly. The movie establishes their issues so they can learn from it and get over it. Goku is always fighting in increments, going "Well I was only using 20% of my power anyway", even when he was fighting Beerus while using a time limited power up. He gets retarded at times in different ways.
Even if Goku logically knows he shouldn't let his guard down, he still gets arrogant when he thinks the fight is over, since his personality is very loose.
Vegeta's flaw is that he's uptight, which slows his reaction speed and makes it so he's always inside of his head thinking too much.
They both have the opposite flaw
/a/ loves to bitch about serious "edgy" DBZ but it's the medium of the series everybody grew up on, remembers, and ultimately likes the most. If you don't you're just an ultra-weeb who had no childhood.
>>134870075
He re-read the manga right before making BoG so he should
>>134870468
The rock was filler
>>134875713
Yeah, tottaly pulling things out of my ass. The trainer of gods said this shit himself.
>>134875775
That still doesn't make any sense. How does a hencemen damage a person who is many many more times then frieza who able to tank a destructo disk? Or when Cell tanked Vegeta's full power attack? Gohan took a powerful blast from cell guarding Vegeta and his arm didn't get pierced and he didn't revert back to normal.
Where is the fucking consistency? How the fuck does a laser take out Goku in his final form? Bullshit.
>>134875782
Just a few loud hipsters, almost everyone prefers good old DBZ over DB or Super, Super will be successful purely on the name, but remain relatively a flop compared to Z.
Post your favorite moment in the series
>>134871835
Trunks was infinitely more powerful than Ginyu force Goku
So Cell can tank bullets and energy blasts unguarded but when Goku does it in his God form he gets taken out?
Have any of you fuckwits stopped to think that maybe Sorbet's laser is the same shit as a Kienzan?
>>134876049
Yes because he's a Saiyan, Cell is most probably a lot more resistant without Ki.
How can it be that so many people are so stupid? How hard is it to understand? When he's down to no Ki he's not much more resistant than a normal human. Fucking hell Whis flat out states it in the manga, the anime, and the movie.
>>134871815
Uh no.
Remember this is Goku before he's a super saiyan and his base power level is 5000.
Remember when Trunks BTFO'd frieza? The scouters said his powerlevel was 5. If Trunks was caught off guard he'd be btfo's
>>134875984
It's impossible for me to pick. This one is up there though.
>>134873916
When he used it against the Pilaf gang, it barely broke a single rock, showing neither a massive explosive power, nor a great penetrating effect

>>134878908
But it's the Americans who watched dragon ball starting from the middle of the story with a made up translation and rock music on top, just ban them from discussing dragon ball and all will be well.

>it only has one setting!!!
The point of the scene was to bring Whis training full circle, as he reprimanded Goku in the beginning for letting his guard down
I bet you're one of those LOTR eagle posters.
Dragon ball makes no fucking sense. First vegeta says that he must actively lower his power from normal/passive levels to weakass levels to be hurt by Kuririn's attacks, and years later Whis says that at normal level, the body is completely void of Ki and is as frail as paper tissue.
>>134879324
Trunks had "farmer with shotgun" power level on this page:
>>134871835
If they caught him off guard he would be fucked
>>134879324
DB is about the characters, which is its main asset. Every main character passes the Plinkett Test with flying colors.
If you try to analyze POWER LEVELS too hard it's not worth it, as even the author admits he stopped caring about POWER LEVELS in the middle of Namek (and yet people still consider it one of the best arcs)
It's always been this way, too. Why can Tao survive a Kamehameha but is instantly killed by a human grenade?

People here are in such a hurry to prove that they're smarter than some casual boogieman that they forget all the times Goku actually was a hero. Protecting the weak and defeating evil isn't his only motivation, but it's his primary one.
>>134863194
It's literally impossible to be in a relaxed state while transformed, it's like constant flexing and stress. There a whole arc dedicated to Goku and Gohan learning to control SSJ before the Cell games.

>>134885864
So why didn't Bulma have one, since Jaco showed us she could make super powerful ones even as a little kid?
>>134868525
if this were true, then he wouldn't have been in blue mode.
>>134885979
Because Bulma is afraid to wield that kind of power. Too much responsibility, even for a super genius heiress who fucks genocidal alien warlords.
For the same reason Goku and Vegeta don't carry lasers either, it's just not honorable.
>>134867422

Toriyama likes misleading, comical, and strange designs since Dragonball. He's always done this shit, people hated the way Beerus looked at first as well.
We don't know anything about this guy; we just know that Beerus recommended him to the team since before meeting SSG Goku, this is the guy that's given him the hardest fight in the past, that he respects just a bit. Not counting Whis anyway, since Whis is a cheat.
Even reading Dr.Slump will tell you why its stupid to expect serious designs outside of Toriyama. He literally wants you to react like this, he wants you to think its strange design at first so it can mislead, he doesn't do standard cool guy design really. All of the main villains in DBZ start out looking stupid.

Frieza is a more naturally durable person. Kinda like how Kid Goku still has a skull hard enough to withstand bullets, Frieza and by extension Cell is naturally that durable.
>>134876049
Goku without Ki = marginally stronger than a human
Freiza or Cell without Ki = Still a fucking tank machine android
>>134888012
Kid goku without ki: tanked sniper bullets and rockets, which a normal human would die to, and could punch through steel with ease
>>134888455
And he couldn't lower his ki back then (I think, I'm almost sure). Meanwhile, Trunks here has the same power level as the farmer with a shotgun, and would be fucked if he was caught off guard:
>>134871835
>still thinking this hard about Dragonball
Jackie Chun blew up the moon 30 years ago.
>>134888555
If he got fucked would be because he was being a cocky little shit. Lowering Ki is an active ability, something they must do on purpose, otherwise when they are chilling they have a much higher default ki level that lets them tank stuff appropiate for their ki level.
>>134863194

Toriyama doesn't care about consistency. No one around him seems to care.
It's pointless to think hard about Dragon Ball. A bunch of things can be answered with "because Toriyama"

Why do so many mistaken Sorbet for some Frieza mook? At minimum he's one of the highest ranking in Frieza's army.
