If Namekian racial bonuses were actually better, Piccolo would be stronger than Goku and Vegeta instead of being so far behind them that the only way he'd ever catch up is by undergoing Freeza's four month workout regime.

Immediately following his second fusion, he was.

You are right that he's fallen behind, though. He should use Namekian Fusion a third time. Then he'll make Super Saiyan 3 look like a joke.

This guy in Xenoverse I lost to 4 times sent me a PSN message offering to "train me" if I gave him a 20 dollar psn card or game-shared some Xenoverse DLC. I told him no thanks. Beside I don't have any DLC.

Next movie is about Yajirobe saving earth, because he was training for 4 months while Goku slacked off slightly.

I have a message from another time...

A fourth fusion might kick him up to God tier.

No no no, he needs to go and train every Namekian, then have all of them get their potentials unlocked, and then have everybody fuse together into Piccolomega.

Piccolo now has problems with guys on Zarbon level. He'll need a lot of fusion to be relevant again. tongue

But what if the Zarbon level guys trained for four months when nobody was paying attention?

Piccolo should never have allowed his battle power to atrophy in order to pursue a scholarly life and raise his child!

Something about what I just said doesn't sound right.

he's secretly raising an army of Piccolo Jr Jr to try the Super Namek God ritual.

When we've got homoerotic Super Sentai and magic spells that turn people into kung-fu action chocolate?

The humor in the early parts was rather... crass, for lack of a better term. Stuff like Oolong practically trying to date-rape Bulma, and the 7000+ penis jokes. I'm not losing sleep over that stuff going away.

Don't forget Goku's serial molesting phase!

When you consider that his marriage to Chi-Chi is solely the consequence of the fact that he grabbed her crotch during his serial molesting phase, that element never left, it just got named Gohan.

Also consider: Gohan got married to the first girl whose crotch he came into contact with. Of course it never went away.

He didn't; she flung her crotch in his face.

Well, one would assume it happened at some point after they became an Official Couple, given Pan's conception.

[up] ...I'd forgotten about that.

I mean, to some extent a series where the MacGuffin is balls is practically asking for dick jokes, but...

Case in point, I was going to make a crack a page or two ago when a point was made that Dende tweaked God's balls to the effect of "Dende fondled God's balls a bit more than that" but couldn't figure out a good way to word it.
