Lord Beerus ain't happy...

Fat Boo was definitely weaker than Pure Boo. As soon as Fat Boo separated the "evil" within him, in the form of Pure Boo, he got his ass kicked technically twice by Pure Boo, who was technically Evil Boo... who then turned into Super Boo after turning Fat Boo into chocolate and eating him... and then when Fat Boo was separated from Super Boo, Super Boo reverted back into Pure Boo instead of Evil Boo for some reason... but not before briefly reverting into the form he had taken when he had absorbed Southern Supreme Kai... and when Pure Boo was kicking SSJ 3 Goku and SSJ 2 Vegeta asses, Fat Boo was still technically inside him... then Pure Boo spat out Fat Boo due to him still having some mental influence over him when he was about to attack Mr Satan... then Pure Boo beat the shit out of Fat Boo and Vegeta again and apparently had become more powerful.

It's all really confusing.

Yeah, I do kinda wonder if Fat Buu has more potential power than Kid Buu and is on par with Super, but unconsciously holds back a tremendous amount of his power level, while Super and Kid don't.

In fact, since it's just a rearrangement of the same components, you could say Super Buu IS Fat Buu using all of his potential and shedding the restraints imposed on him by the Kais.

The fact that Fat Buu could even exist inside of Super Buu is its own Head scratcher.

[up] Its not really a head scratcher because Fat Boo was already the result of a fusion between Pure Boo and Grand Supreme Kai. Once Fat Boo pulled a "Kami" and separated the "evil" within him, the original Pure Boo was once again free to wreak havoc. The real head scratcher in my opinion is how Super Boo didn't revert back to his Evil Boo form instead transforming into the original Pure Boo. But then again Pure Boo and Evil Boo are essentially the same being with Pure Boo being Evil Boo's original form but reincarnated at the same time... or something... I don't know, like I said, its all really confusing and you can't get your head entirely around it all.

Yeah, according to Saikyō Jump #6, Pure Boo was not actually created by Bibidi, but has existed since time immemorial. He cycled between rampages and long hibernation. During numerous iterations of this cycle, he absorbed the evil elements of mankind, becoming steadily more violent. Bibidi merely knew the means of calling Boo from out of his long slumber.

So a wizard couldn't have done it.

And again this is another significant recton or revision of a significant Dragon Ball character which only adds more credibility to my argument that a Dragon Ball reboot is necessary. Information like than can't afford to be swept under the rug as "miscellaneous fact".

With all these revisions and retcons, we need to think of a way we could make sure fans who don't know this information, aren't out of the loop.

Hmmmm...

I know! How about a Dragon Ball rebo- *Gets hit in the head with a brick*

He also completely changed the information we had on the Supreme Kais, with the biggest change being that there are only three of them at any given time.

Also, it goes Good Buu, then Evil Buu, then Kid Buu, then Majin Buu, then Super Buu, then Buff Buu, and then all of Super Buu's transformations at the top.

What really? But we saw 5 of them back when Buu first attacked.

Is Toriyama just pulling stuff out of his ass now? It seems like he's just making it up without caring for what he did in the past.

And then there's Gine.sad Oh man, then there's Gine.

[up][up] He's also a) confused Super Saiyan 2 with Super Saiyan 3 a few times, and b) once asked Oda who Tao Pai Pai was.

Also, here's the Supreme Kai revision:

No one can. Kaiōshin are born as Kaiōshin. There are three of them, and they work in shifts. Though there are two of them on duty now, if one of the Kaiōshin were to die in an accident, then the currently-inactive Kaiōshin would grow in the Kaiōshin Realm like a plant. If there aren’t any accidents, then it’s said their lifespans are about 75,000 years.

Their lifespan being 75,000 years doesn't work either! East Supreme Kai has been around since Buu's rampage 5 millions years ago.

I think it was stated that boo became weaker after absorbing Dai Kaioshin.
