I just noticed those frogs today. I don't remember seeing them earlier so I was wondering if their appearance was related to story mode progress.

I saw them when I first started playing.

EDIT: Parallel Quest 16 is a bag of dicks.

I double checked, and it seems that ROF Goku Dragon Ball Heroes card does have a transformation, but it's essentially a "Hidden" Super Saiyan God form. Essentially, having all the power of a god without changing his appearance, kinda like Ultimate Gohan's Unlock Potential transformation.

Speaking of Launch, Kuririn asks Tenshihan how Launch is doing (in a very teasing tone) when they face each other in Xenoverse versus mode. tongue

I've done Piccolo's, Vegeta's, and Captain Ginyu's, and I feel confident saying they are not the same difficulty.

Piccolo's was easy enough to be completely unmemorable afterwards. All I remember is beating it on the first try at about half the level I am now.

Vegeta's was tough and took a few tries and a few healing items to get through.

Captain Ginyu's made me want to cry, and now I'm putting that on hold until I'm of a higher level. He makes you fight the entire Ginyu Force "sequentially" which, here, has the definition of a new member joining the fight at time checkpoints rather than when you win, so if you don't beat the previous opponent quick enough, you're outnumbered. This would be all well and good if those checkpoints weren't, like, five seconds apart. It is functionally 5-on-1.

So, not only are Abo and Kado in DBH, but so is Aka:

Ya know, it wouldn't surprise me if Dodoria is a fusion of 2 aliens. Abo and Kado do seem to be of the same race as Dodoria, so power fusions could be their thing.

If it is, their race got shafted. Given how OP fusion is even when it was just a Namekian racial trait, if Dodoria was the product of a fusion, he got thoroughly gypped.

Off topic but I was just reading about Dragon Ball Minus and the reason Bardock gives for him and Gine not going with Goku is they'd be found with their scouters. Does he not know he could just leave his scouter behind? Maybe I misread something but if that's the best reason he's got, he's a damn idiot. Just off the top of my head, a better reason would be something like it'd be harder for the three to get off world as opposed to just Goku or they were waiting to grab Raditz or something, not "Our easily removable accessory would make us easy to find". That just seems like lazy writing to me though i'm sure others see this as a valid reason.

Also, Goku apparently believes Bardock is Yamcha. At least when the two fight in a VS match. Picking Goku to play as, match starts, "I've got a full belly and tons of power. Just like the good old days, right Yamcha?" of course after restarting the match he then assumes Bardock is a shapeshifted Oolong. Guy just needs to make up his mind. 4/5 times he said the first line. Kinda funny.

Well, If Dororia is a fusion, I can say it isn't made of love. It's a fusion of hate, kinda like Malachite.

I'm re-reading some volumes of DB and I have a question: The Supreme Kai states that he is a thousand times stronger than Frieza but IIRC the only ones who knew Frieza had more than two forms were his family and Goku+friends when they fight him. He's also afraid of the mook that Goku kills just by turning SS and of Dabura(who my translation states is about Perfect Cell level).

Maybe he's actually just 1000 times Frieza in his "default" form? It would explain why he's scared of fighters that he should be way stronger than.

Saiga, do you know if any of the databooks actually mentioned how strong he actually was because him being stronger than Frieza and Cell I can understand storywise but it feels like his power isn't as strong as he says he is what with being afraid of mooks that should be weaker than him?

Could just be a bad/old translation making him seem way weaker than he actually is supposed to be.

Five hundred and thirty effing millions (AKA one thousand times Freeza's default, weakest form) should still be more than enough to one-punch kill Freeza. That's still just short of five times Freeza's strength.

Regardless, the point made is that by the time of the Buu saga, Freeza was so insanely weak that he didn't even rate a mook.

That might be a translation issue, the version I've read just had Kaioshin stating that each of Kaioshin's could one shot Freeza.

Also, as a interesting trivia, the panel where Kaioshin talks about Buu destroying countless planets we've seen a chared body that looks like Freeza.

Parallel Quest 16 is still a bag of dicks.

Beating it isn't the problem, but.

Goddammit I want that skill.

Also, a lot of the members of Frieza's clan in Toki Toki City seem like they're naked.

It's weirding me out, guys.

They are naked. Remember, they can wear 'clothing' that is actually part of their body. So yeah, they're not wearing 'clothing' at all.

All the parallel quests are annoying if you're trying to get a certain skill/item. Especially when the bonus objectives don't trigger, preventing you from getting an item/skill that's only obtainable by beating said objective. I don't know how many times i've gotten the 'beaten in 3 minutes' thing, yet didn't get the second stage for beating it in under five. Games random as fuck and that sucks.
