I mean, Beerus has called him the strongest there is (although he's not a fighter). Strength generally correlates with what can or can't hurt characters. Though, yes, we've never actually seen anyone try so that is a bit in the air, I guess.

Dragon Ball characters may not be able to hurt him, but he definitely isn't omnipotent. Not from what we've been shown.

After some arbitrary level of power, I'm sure you could kill him.

Whether he's omnipotent or not really has nothing to do with it.

And I do not believe it has anything to do with power either.

Because he's not destroying. He's erasing from existence, those are not the same thing. And it really doesn't seem like anything can hurt him. If it could I doubt things would be as they are.

During Goku and Jiren's spirit bomb struggle, El Grande Padre put up a shield to safeguard the Zenos, so I assume they could have taken some damage if things went wrong.

And I figure Zamasu just didn't know how to do Kaioken. Until the TOP arc when Goku started throwing it around willy-nilly, they were portraying Super Saiyan Kaioken as incredibly difficult to pull off and deadly if you get it wrong.

Can I say how much I love that chart, and how the meme names seem to be sticking?

I don't think Gohan Calvo will come until it's revealed that El Grande Padre is Goten Black.

So, I found this fun website for comparing heights, and it's really helpful to contextualize how bullshit some of the official heights of Dragon Ball characters are.

Here's Goku compared to Vegeta using their official heights.

Goku to Bulma

Goku to Piccolo

Goku to Krillin

Goku to Chiaotzu

Goku to Goten

[up][up]Like, pretty much is too tall compared to Goku in those.

Here's a website that allows comparison of up to 6 people.

The code for comparing some characters is Vegeta|male|164_Bulma|female|165_Goku|male|175_Gohan|male|176_Krillin|male|153_Piccolo|male|226 (though it's less of a code and more just a list of the character's names, official heights in cm, and genders).

I can at least say that these characters have looked this tall compared to each other occasionally in the series. Not consistently, though.

A new Heroes commercial shows off Super Saiyan 4 Bardock and Kafla:

Interesting that Bardock's fur is a really dark shade of red.

I miss when Bardock was just a jerkass Saiyan who got karmic comeuppance instead of a slightly less heroic version of Goku. sad
