* [[EvilSorcerer Babidi]] has finally released [[TheDreaded Majin Buu]]. Despite Buu's quirky nature, he's vastly more powerful than anyone else in the situation (with the exception of Goku with Super Saiyan 3, though Babidi is unaware of this). [[AllThereInTheManual Super Saiyan 3 is 4 times stronger than Super Saiyan 2]], so Buu is probably 2-3.5 times as strong as Majin Vegeta and Super Saiyan 2 Goku, given he held his own against Goku at full power later on, even if he was losing. Aside from Majin Buu, he still has Dabura, who is roughly even with Super Saiyan 2 Gohan[[note]]Although Gohan was weaker than he was against Cell, he wasn't overwhelmingly so, and while Majin Vegeta and Goku are stronger than Cell Games Gohan, they're only slightly so, as Piccolo notes[[/note]], and has a power level of over 4,000 kili compared to Son Goku's 3,000 kili as a Super Saiyan (and thus 6,000 as a Super Saiyan 2, again [[AllThereInTheManual as per guidebooks confirming Super Sayain 2 to be twice as powerful]], with Goku noting he defeat him without "too much" difficulty, but presumably not none, meaning Dabura is at least 2/3rds as strong as Majin Vegeta and Super Saiyan 2 Goku, probably closer to 70-80%. However, although the weakest of Babidi's minions (perhaps even including Vegeta himself from Babidi's viewpoint), Dabura has shown to be much more controllable and loyal than Majin Buu (and to a lesser extent, Vegeta), who is infantile and quite volatile, attacking Dabura for insulting him and doing serious damage immediately (though Dabura survives initially). In addition, Dabura, unlike the other two, has shown UndyingLoyalty to Babidi. He is also warning Babidi that Buu is uncontrollable and will turn on him.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' Ignoring the obvious solution of just listening to Dabura and/or attempting to flee, as Buu just easily and severely injured, as far as Babidi knows, the 4th or 5th strongest person in the universe, for Babidi to try to rein Buu in. Even if he thinks Dabura is a far less desirable servant than Buu, and he doesn't care about Dabura at all, Dabura isn't useless, being capable of slightly injuring Buu and being roughly comparable to the Super Saiyan 2s, albeit weaker than Goku and Vegeta, and being loyal to him. Even if he prefers Buu's rampages, Dabura could still be useful as a bodyguard to protect Babidi from surprise attacks (such as from Piccolo, who nearly kills him this way), even from the Super Saiyan 2 combatants, as well as defending him should Buu turn on him, even if just as a distraction.\\
'''Instead:''' He tells Buu to just kill Dabura, spitefully telling the latter that he [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness is just a useless servant now]].\\
'''Result:''' Buu kills Dabura, and not even a day later, Babidi is killed when Buu is fed up with him.\\

* Cell has regenerated from his near-death, and has gained his [[MemeticMutation Perfecter Form]]. He's now roughly in Gohan's league, give or take (though unbeknownst to him, still a little weaker). He also killed Trunks immediately, the only one besides Vegeta (and maybe Piccolo) who could hope to even slightly threaten him, before incapacitating Vegeta and breaking Gohan's arm. So far so good.
'''You'd Expect:''' For Cell to fight a battle of attrition with Gohan and avoid big energy clashes, as the only way to kill him is to destroy his entire body (see Goku's Instant Kamehameha). Close quarters combat will favor Cell as a broken arm is a weak point, and Gohan only has one arm to fight with.
''Instead:''' He has a BeamOWar with Gohan, leading to him being obliterated.

* A major problem, starting from early Dragon ball and being coming clear in late Dragon Ball and made even worse in Z, GT and Super is that nearly all the earthling fighters can not keep up with Goku or other Saiyans in combat against enemies. No amount of training seems to help them keep up or if they do get a way to keep up, they get overclassed almost instantly by the Saiyans anyway. Goku has tried to find a new protector because he knows one day he will be gone for good and the earth and universe will need a new protector.\\
'''You'd Expect:''' The earthlings use the Earth or Namekian Dragon Balls and ask the dragon if there is a way, technique, power up, trick or something that the earthlings can use or learn that would let them keep up. The series itself has shown the dragon can provide knowledge or help for new powers (super saiyan god, orange piccolo). Even if this seems like cheating or not truly earning their power, it should be pointed out that the safety and lives of the earth and universe must take priority over this. Also, this provides a way in the future for the new generation of z fighters to protect the earth and universe.\\
'''Instead:''' No one ever thinks of using the dragon balls for this and the earthlings are basically useless and are no real help in battles and often die pointlessly.\\

Goku has tried to find a new protector because he knows one day he will be gone for good and the earth and universe will need a new protector.
'''You'd Expect:''' The earthlings use the Earth or Namekian Dragon Balls and ask the dragon if there is a way, technique, power up or trick that the earthlings can use or learn that would let them keep up. The series itself has shown the dragon can provide knowledge or help for new powers (super saiyan god, orange piccolo). Even if this seems like cheating or not earning their power, it should be pointed out that the safety and lives of the earth and universe must take priority over this. Also, this provides a way in the future for the new generation of z fighters to protect the earth and universe.
'''Instead:''' No one ever thinks of using the dragon balls for this and the earthlings are basically useless and die pointlessly in battle.
