[up] Hey, she never said they were canon. She's just making it up.

Although having the Briefs as Jewish would be hilarious. Imagine Trunks or Bra having a Bar/Batmitzvah!

It's weird that she has the only rich people being Jewish.

And that the giant, afro-having American Pro Wrestling man is Muslim just because.

I just assumed everyone but the space aliens were Japanese.

Except Android 13, he's from Android Alabama. It's like Space Australia or Space France, just robotic instead of space-y.

On a stupid note: So, the Elder Kai's ritual requires Gohan to sit on his ass for 25 hours and not move, right? Does he ever need to eat or sleep? Or go to the bathroom? I mean, he's still alive. Surely he needs to do this stuff and YES I AM thinking WAAY too much into this.

And yet they still use the Raditz as a currency...

[up]Saiyans have displayed a ridiculous amount of mental fortitude as well as fortitude overall.

We can go 25 hours without eating, and it's unlikely that you're going to need to poop or pee in an urgent fashion if you're not eating anything.

There's no Japan in their world.

The whole discussion on ethnicity really is moot. It only matters if you're human or not, by which I mean, if you're human, you don't matter.

He could go a day without eating or sleeping, he'd just be very hungry and tired. Bathroom is a bit awkward though.

Vegeta went on for like six days without an appreciable bathroom break, and the only sleep he got during that time was a short powernap and some time he spent unconscious, IIRC. So, yeah, Saiyans are badass.

Cool. So, apparently, Saiyans don't need sleep.

I was just going to headcanon the reason Gohan screwed up against Buu was because he had to fight immediately after going a day with no food or rest. Even though I know that's stupid.

They do, they can just tough it out.

And they get weaker if they don't eat regularly.

Does anyone have a power level list they trust, available online?

Here you go, all cited from official sources. This is what I use when I start pulling numbers out of my ass for battle power discussions in this thread, because it's a damn sight more reliable than my memory, and also because some of these battle powers were only ever mentioned in supplemental materials like Krillin's final results of Guru's unlocking.

Doesn't go past Frieza though, because there stopped being official sources after Frieza. Any battle powers in the Cell Saga and Buu Saga are fanwank extrapolations no matter where you get them from.

A new 2D fighting game was announced for the 3DS:

Dragon Ball Z: Extreme Butouden!

There's gonna be over 100 playable and assist characters, and the game is being made by Arc System Works. (Guilty Gear, Blaz Blue, Persona Arena, DBZ Super Sonic Warriors, etc...)

Vegeta was affected by the lack of sleep he had on Namek, which is why he only shows his true zenkai power after that nap he has. His repeated zenkai just meant he never looked like he was suffering.

Gohan was also awake for more than 25 hours. He doesn't sleep from the beginning of the tournament to breaking of the Z Sword, and that was more than a day. Didn't eat during that time either but he had a senzu bean so that wouldn't be a problem.

[up] inb4 No Export for You like Ultimate Butouden. Hope this is different, buuuut there really wasn't anything stopping us from getting an Ultimate port.

He was knocked unconscious by Buu, though, wasn't he?

Yes, he had a nice, restful concussion.

Sleep and unconsciousness aren't the same.

Looking over the scan, Extreme Butouden seems to have a gameplay fusion of the Butouden series and the Super Sonic Warriors series. (It's being done by ASW) Confirmed characters (playable and assist) so far are:

  • Goku
  • Teen Gohan
  • Gohan
  • Bardock
  • Chi-Chi
  • Vegeta
  • Kid Trunks
  • Bulma
  • Mr. Satan
  • Videl
  • Piccolo
  • Krillin
  • Yamcha
  • Dende
  • Yajirobe
  • Oolong
  • Dr. Briefs
  • Gotenks
  • Uub
  • Pikkon
  • Spike the Devilman
  • Raditz
  • Nappa
  • Zarbon
  • Dadoria
  • Jeice
  • Frieza
  • Chilled
  • 18
  • Cell
  • Cell Jr.
  • Yamu
  • Dabura
  • Kid Buu
  • Beerus
  • Nuova Shenron

That's already 36 characters! I wonder who the rest are...

Yeah, this roster is gonna be cray. I hope they bring back King Kai from the previous Butouden game, he had a fun moveset. (and I hope they actually add a Kaioken transformation and a Spirit Bomb super this time)
