You can't train eyes though since there's no muscle on them.

What do you know of Saiyan eyes?

[up]Don't you mean half-Saiyan eyes?

Anyone else wish 8 was used more? I really like him, but I guess a character that doesn't like fighting yet can kick ass when he gets pissed doesn't belong in a show about guys who love kicking each others asses. Now am I talking about Gohan or 8? Obviously Cyborg 8 since I specifically mentioned him first.

[down]I blame my subtitles. It keeps calling him Cyborg #8. It also claims - or rather it claims that White claims - he was dead and brought back to life so shouldn't that make him a Cyborg?

Pfft, as if the human part of Gohan matters at all. And it's not Cyborg 8, he actually was fully mechanical.

Well, that's how we used to understand it. Until recently, anyway.

Being allowed to train? Evidently not. But keeping your body? Apparently if they want you to suffer.

Not so.

Whatever that was, it wasn't Frieza's body. It's a ghostly self-image or something. Frieza's head was cut into giblets when he died, and was still in giblets when he was revived. Whatever we're seeing on that panel, it is not his physical head.

When Goku kept his body, God healed the gaping hole in his chest. That's why he didn't have a gaping hole in his chest during his training under Kaio-sama. The gaping hole remained gone when he was revived - which it would have anyway since that's what killed him, but the point is, his mortal wound was addressed.

Frieza was killed by being vaporized, which is why he came back as giblets, because that was the state he was in when he was killed and nobody did the work of restoring the damage to his corpse to return it to him in the afterlife. Because Frieza, like all the other villains, didn't get to keep his body, despite the acid trip we see in our brief excursion to Hell.

Fortunately, Freeza's so insanely resilient that he's able to survive as gibs.

You know, that's probably the reason for why Shenron can't revive someone who died of natural causes.

He restores your body to the state it was in before the thing that killed you did so. If the state your body was in is "Dying of natural causes," that don't do you much good.

Guru can vouch for this.

It actually makes perfect sense. It's probably also the reason why Goku can't be immediately revived either. He's revived, sure... but then he immediately dies because the heart virus just kills him again.

Couldn't they wish for him to be revived without the virus, or hell, just wish for the virus to be removed when he's alive?

Well, the main problem was that no one saw it coming. In Trunks' timeline, they had 6 months where they were just like "OK, Goku's dead. I guess we'll just have to deal with it." They didn't know the Androids were coming. And in the main timeline, Goku already had the medicine, so that wasn't a problem.

Anime news network have revealed the Shonen Jump leak with Goku's new form in it.

If their translation is right, the form is officially called Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan. Yeah.

Mix "You'll never beat an android." with "Bwa ha ha! Got you!" and I get "Bwa ha ha... Thanks for the energy." I just need one for Z Soul before I can make Super 17's Z Soul now!

I personally find 'I am...Super Vegeta!' useful for my Saiyan. I might switch to one I just got that boosts Super Kamehameha's power - Can't remember the name at the moment - since with Goku as my mentor i'm guessing a Z assist will make it extremely powerful.

Hopefully they'll just dumb it down to God Super Saiyan.

It's sufficiently different from Super Saiyan God.

They really should have called the form from previous movie just Sayian God and have this be Super Sayian God.

  • GOKU: With this new form, my power increases by a factor of 1,000!
  • FRIEZA: Please. You may find that impressive, but I've only ever revealed 0.05% of my true power.
  • BULMA: Okay, done with all of this.
  • FRIEZA: Who the devil are you?
  • GOKU: Bulma! It's not safe!
  • BULMA: No! F*cking no! I'm sick of this shit!
  • FRIEZA: If you don't mind, we're in the middle of a fight.
  • BULMA: No, you're in the middle of power wanking, and I'm done hearing it.
  • GOKU: Bulma, Frieza will literally kill you.
  • BULMA: No, he won't. Because I've been following this long enough, and now I have the power to destroy him.
  • FRIEZA: Do go on.
  • GOKU: You can't even fly!
  • BULMA: No. But I can do better. I can math.
  • GOKU: ...what?
  • BULMA: *clears throat, then loudly announces* You may be strong, Frieza, but I'VE only ever shown the root of one side of the polyhedron whose shape resembles MY power.
  • FRIEZA: ...I...wha—
  • BULMA: Square-Cube Law, bitch. *vaporizes Frieza*
