Ok well i'm going off the anime. And in the time chamber they weren't ssj when the slept, but when they were chilling by the lake with Krillin, they were ssj while they were taking a nap. Remember Krillen threw that rock at Goku's head? That might not be in the manga either, but i'm going off the anime.

all of that is filler garbage

Yeah power levels are pointless in a sense that they can never be read correctly and in theory they can all be infinite. Frieza probably is a better fighter than Broly, it's like comparing Iron Fist to Solomon Grundy. I'm sorry if you're having comprehension problems. Maybe you should smoke some hydro and work on your attention span.

Frieza -- Very Powerful, semi skilled fighter
-More Powerful than Goku
-Not as good of a fighter as Goku
-More than likely wouldve bodied Goku on Namek if he wasn't so worried about his reputation

*Footnotes
Frieza was stronger than Goku, all he had to do was kill Goku. Was too busy talking and let his ego get the best of him by showing everyone he couldn't sense power levels. Goku was a better fighter but not as strong. Goku outclassed him as a fighter but in this instance, power would've outclassed fighting.

Broly -- Very Powerful, not a very good fighter
-More Powerful than Goku
-Probably not as Powerful as Frieza
-Not as good of a fighter as Frieza

*More Footnotes
Raditz was weaker than Gohan, didnt know it til Gohan showed it. Regardless, Raditz sonned him. Why? Because he was a better fighter. Which makes...power levels pointless...

ERM... NO

MaYBE because Gohan was a fsggot cry baby during that arc

Like anybody cant fukk up a 5 year old who cries aLL the time...

These levels do matter, because Vegeta could have killed Cell before he absorbed the female android. Here's the thing, I think these in between levels were made to show that Goku is smarter in his training. Vegeta trains hard as hell, even harder than Goku, but when it came to mastering ssj to the point where you could walk around and sleep in that mode like Goku and Gohan did, simply busting your ass didn't work. That's why Goku and Gohan spent less than a year in there, compared to Vegeta and Trunks doing two years. That's why Vegeta and Trunks weren't walking around in ssj mode like Goku and Gohan because they didn't reach that level of mastery like they did. You keep saying Vegeta didn't train as much, nah man Vegeta trained more than anyone. That's why he became an ssj2 after the cell saga, when he was only able to train on earth, while Goku was able to train in heaven with no limitations with King Kai, fighting in that dead tournament, and not having to worry about blowing up the planet.

So again, those levels were made to show that Goku was more heads up and trained smarter than the others, and he steered Gohan in that direction too. Also, please don't mention ssj4, and dragon ball gt, that shyt isn't cannon. It also sucked too.

you're confused about what i'm saying...I havent said the levels they reached didnt matter, i'm saying the names of those in between levels doesnt matter...just like you dismissed ss4 cause it wasn't cannon, so are all the names of the in between levels....those levels didn't have names, fans made that shyt up cause of character favs...the only names of levels that matter are: ss, ascended ss (ss2), and complete/perfect ss (some shyt like that) (ss3)...

we're not talking about imperfect cell though, we're talking about perfect cell...the cell vegeta wanted to fight, that's why he let him absorb all the droids...that cell was stronger than vegeta and trunks at that current time cause they weren't ss2...they were in between ss1 and ss2...that's all that part showed....

vegeta trained hard, but never harder than goku and never as long as goku...goku trained his whole life, even in death...vegeta didn't...he didn't start training like that until after the frieza saga...and even then, he didn't do it as consistent as goku cause of his pride...he always believed since he was the prince, he didn't have to do it like a common person like goku...that he should've been naturally like the legendary ss...that's why he never got as strong as goku, ever....he was always playing catch-up

also, they never slept in ss...in the chamber, they walked around and chilled in it, but never slept as ss...and that's only during the cell saga...they rarely did that regularly cause they saw no point since they could go ss with such ease...

yea, vegeta became ss2 after the cell saga, goku and gohan were already there before the end of the cell saga....so he was still playing catch-up...the only reason he caught gohan was cause he stopped training cause of goku not being there; cause of that, his power level stopped growing like that until he became mystic...

as for the mastering thing, that part plays no part in reaching higher levels like that...the only thing they had to master was raising their power levels by unleashing their power...and the hardest part of that was becoming a ss in the first place...just look at the series...it took them longer to reach ss than it did any other level....after they got to ss and mastered getting to that level, look how easily they could go ss...they were doing it in secs...as for the other levels pass ss, no one knew they existed until goku found out...he was always the first to do something, then he came back and let the others know...ex: the cell saga...they thought going ss wouldve been enough to beat anyone after frieza, until cell started whopping they ass...then goku shows up, shows them they can go to another level of ss, and the rest is history...

I'm seeing Cell name pop up in this thread, but if Goku never existed, would Dr. Gero have even created Cell, seeing as he used Goku's genes? :ohhh:
Shiiiiiit, if Raditz, Nappa, and Vegeta conquered Earth during their first visit, they would've probably crossed paths with Gero anyway and dead him loooooong before he even begins work on the Androids.

I think the only logic answers are Broly or the Supreme Kai.

Maybe Gero would create androids using different Saiyan DNA. They could likely become strong enough to destroy Frieza and Broly.

-yamcha would've focused on his baseball career and went pro. Would've banked maad dough.

-Bulma would've stayed with him

-Yamcha would then use his cash to fund dr briefs work and really give him the edge for innovation

-Dr. Briefs company becomes the leader in defense weaponry and he creates a suit for yamcha to wear ala tony or lex luthor.

-Yamcha sons everybody

:lolbron:

VERY.. PLAUSIBLE :ohhh:

No suit can match Frieza's strength. Krillen and Tien could son Yamcha respectively.

@lutha Gohan was the 1st to go SSJ2. Goku didn't show him how to do it.
Seriously tho, why y'all still arguing over Super Saiyan forms. Get back to the topic. This was actually a good thread. Now y'all derailed it.

Both Vegeta and Trunks spent 2 years in the time room, Goku and Gohan spent less than a year.

It had everything to do with mastering ssj1, because they clearly said simply trying to increase your power level won't work. That's what Vegeta and Trunks did, and they put in way more work too.

Goku and Gohan simply have better natural talent, and Goku was able to train in heaven and shyt with no limitations.

Also, Cell admitted that Trunks was stronger when Trunks was whooping up on him at first, then Cell showed him it didn't matter because he was way too slow.

:ld:

This is true, but you forgot to mention that Goku and Gohan both understood the value of a REST DAY.

Think about it like weight training, you can't go into the gym lifting heavy 7 days a week without something breaking, popping or overtaxing your body. Taking a rest day is essential to come back and work out @ 100%. Vegeta never understood this and trained 24/7 which plateaued his progress, whereas Goku and Gohan specially took rest days all the time, and in the chamber. Remember when Goku was giving Gohan those life lessons while in the hot tub?

Ok you're right those names like "ascended ssj" and all that are made up by fans to make sense of it all.

I still disagree with the Vegeta training thing, after the Frieza saga he nearly killed himself to become an ssj. He busted his ass for 2 years in that chamber to get stronger, and he became ssj2 on his own without having a deadly foe to push him or being in other world like Gohan and Goku had. All Vegeta did was train, Bulma even said it herself, that's all he does it train. She said that when Gohan was grown and went to visit at the beginning of the Buu saga. So Vegeta trains just as hard if not harder than Goku, I mean how the hell else is he gonna keep up without the natural talent, and without all the other world/heaven/king kai benefits?

Also you're wrong that Goku was ssj2 before the end of the Cell saga, he wasn't an ssj2. Goku didn't reach ssj2 until after the Cell saga like Vegeta, but you are correct that Gohan reached that level against Cell. Also, not only did Gohan's power level stop growing after the Cell saga, it went down a lot.

Yes you are correct, Vegeta had a habit of pushing himself beyond the limit. That's why he nearly killed himself trying to become an ssj in the first place, which is why I don't understand how @lutha can say that Vegeta didn't train as hard as Goku. He trained just as hard if not harder than Goku, maybe not as smart, but there was no lack in intensity that's for sure.

Judging how DBZ storylines always work...... someone 10x stronger would have eventually just showed up and probably destroyed Frieza and his crew. This whole strongest in the universe is far fetched...


Sometimes the writing of the show confuses me. So you mean to tell me they got all these powerful Kais that look over different sections of the universe and they just let Frieza do wtf he wants to do and destroy planets. But when Majin Buu shows up, now we got the supreme blessing us with his presence trying to stop him. nikka where the fukk was you years ago when Frieza was destroying planets and shyt?

Kais = Gods

They're not really allowed to interfere with the affairs of the mortal realm unless it's a threat that concerns mass destruction of galaxies or the universe.
