So...something occurred to me; in a hypothetical Dragon Ball/Fire Emblem crossover, would it be possible for the Saiyans to use Beaststones to turn into Great Apes at will, or would that not work?

Huh if Genome turned red cause he became a God then that means he becomes blue if he goes blue.

Huh then he & Cell would look like oversized Cell Jrs.

Can you wish someone back to life as a good person, especially if they're an artificially created being? I guess there's Buu, but he came back via reincarnation as a human rather than a good version of Kid Buu. I don't think you'd be able to modify Cell's personality against his will with the Dragon Balls.

Kid Buu didn't really have a personality tho.

Cell might have been artificially created, but he's very much a real being and almost certainly had a soul.

Yes, he was born in a glass jar filled with stuff that looked like Namekian pee, but he is a purely, 100% organic being. Just not one that could've existed naturally.

That reminds me: why did Beerus have a negative reaction to hearing about the Androids? Do the gods in this series have something against cyborgs as well? Because if so they are approaching Greek Pantheon levels of Jerkass Gods... well, okay, maybe not Greek Pantheon levels, but still...

[up]I think Beerus is more annoyed by the fact that Shin has a problem with it than Beerus being against mechanized beings in general. I mean, there's already a robot God of Destruction, so I think it may be a Kai thing.

That actually does make sense. Goku with android upgrades is a scary thought.

Gero got killed by his own folly in the end but man can he build his shit right .

Theoretically android Goku would only be as strong as the power source used to give him his strength, since he wouldn't be able to use ki.

Oh hey, IANCE. Fancy meeting you here of all places.

The one where they summon giant monkeys?
And had more or less two thirds of the entire show censored out to absurd degrees, to the point where many episodes mostly consisted of constantly repeated scenes to replace the removed material.

You want an example? Most of Bulma's scenes were censored out this way simply because of her Ms. Fanservice-ness — and that includes such "innocent" fanservice as her wearing short shorts or revealing even a hint of cleavage. Oh, and if you go by the dubbed dialogue, she never flashed anyone, ever. No siree!

Because Cell is a bio-android; he was made completely and utterly organic. Every other Android is either completely mechanical, a cyborg, or whatever the fuck Lapis and Lazuli would be considered.

Cell was unique: an incubated-from-scratch collection of genetic copies of ki users, rather than the various augmentation processes Gero used on everybody else.

Frost got in trouble for having built-in weapons on the last tournament. Beerus likely believed the Androids fell within the same parameters.

My point is: Gero clearly does Lego Genetic Engineering, and the alterations made to 17 and 18 are supposed to be mostly organic, so what makes you think that Goku wouldn't be able to access his ki at all?

Gero, if he had Goku as a test subject, would likely try to capitalize on that, not suppress it. He's not smart enough to create beings he can control, after all.

Except 17 and 18 don't use ki either; that was the whole reason why they couldn't be sensed.

Why can't [Cell] go Super Saiyan?

Too much estrogen from absorbing Android 18 17.
