@ how other anime compare to DB: I was amused to discover recently that Digimon of all things is considered a stronger 'verse than DB. There are a number of time and space warpers among the higher-end Megas, and at least one (ZeedMillenniummon, the final boss of a Japan-only game) who can apparently cause big bangs and crunches at will.
Most Super Robot series end up being stronger then Dragon ball towards the end of their series.
Hell, many, many anime and manga verses are stronger then Dragon Ball.
Slayers has all the higher level baddies and the lord of nightmares, and Tenchi Muyo has the 12 dimensional trio of Chousin plus Kami Tenchi, who is so strong it makes the aforementioned Chousin seem like normal humans compared to an omnipotent.
There's also The Kirbyanime, where Cook Kirby threw an enemy to the sun and back, and Throw Kirby threw a monster of the week with physical force into a far away black hole.

Watch SymphogearKirby has survived being thrown into black holes. I don't think anyone in Dragon ball, not even Beerus or Whis has shown that kind of durability.
Watch SymphogearBuu can kill Buu sounds about right. Kirby can kill Buu with his own attack, though if you think about it Kirby defeats a lot of people with their own attacks.
Superman is overpowered and no one else has a chance of beating him. Except Batman, because he's Batman.
Everyone knows the only person who can even rival Kirby is Captain Falcon. Only he can withstand Caps sheer MANLINESS! All others would simply weep upon gazing at the Paragon of Manliness that is Falcon! Then die from a Falcon Punch.
Kirby won because "Fuck Buu" that's why. Buu lost because of bullshit reasons. The fight was kinda good though.
I'm mostly just joking around, having some fun with this whole thing.

What started out as a pleasant afternoon of drugs and surgery has not gone as planned.New 52 Superman is pretty overpowered, yeah, but he's nowhere near close to the real heights of power he achieved. Like in DC One Million, where it's revealed that he could become practically omnipotent whenever he wanted by just diving into the sun and staying there for a while.
Kirby has survived being thrown into blackholes, and he has also been killed by much, much less harmful things. Like being touched. His abilities are ridiculously inconsistent because the Kirby games have all sorts of different mechanics and systems and so basically you can never actually say how tough he actually is.
Incidentally, Buu showed the ability to survive his own Planet Buster. He destroys planets by teleporting to them, blowing them up right below him whether it be through Planet Buster or by just exploding himself.
The way they had Kirby beat Buu in the Deathbattle is pretty much the only way Kirby can actually kill Buu (because the stuff Kirby eats is not destroyed), and even then, it was bullshit, because it requires an extreme amount of convenience. Like the reflected Planet Buster just so happening to be in the direction of the sun and not exploding on contact with Buu.
I also like how they quote the fact that he was destroyed by another giant murderball, totally forgetting the fact that Buu actually stopped said murderball and was about to return it before Goku got a refill. That Death Battle was pretty bullshit.

himitsu keisatsu seifu chokuzoku kokka hoanbu na no da himitsu keisatsu yami ni magireru supai katsudou torishimariNot what I mean at all.
They seem to think Buu will just stand there gaping at the murderball without reacting in any way, shape or form. In this case, it is true that Buu wouldn't move. If only because it's very, very doubtfull that it can be killed with its own Planet Buster. It'd just vaporize it, which we've already established it can recover from.
himitsu keisatsu seifu chokuzoku kokka hoanbu na no da himitsu keisatsu yami ni magireru supai katsudou torishimariApparently IANCE hasn't heard of Gameplay and Story Segregation. Since that is the reason Kirby can be harmed by lesser things in the game, because that's the gameplay portion, not the story portion.
Kirby has ep dealt with much worse things then Buu and wins. It was inevitable That Buu didn't stand a chance against him. Hell, Hypernova Kirby is literally called "Big Bang" Kirby in the original Japanese version of Kirby Triple Deluxe.

Watch SymphogearIt's stated to have the power of an Actual Black Hole, as well.
He also beat two enemies that can warp the universe in their image (Drawcia and Yin Yarn) and beat them at their own game.
Watch SymphogearLatin American trailer:
The Latin American classic cast, reunited!
◊ Actually very heartwarming, probably even for IANCE, although it's bittersweet to see how old most of them are getting. Plus, of course, the fact they don't have Jesus Colin anymore.
I don't care how lesser shows compare to DBZ power-wise. For me to actually take that shit seriously, the series would actually have to measure up with DBZ in quality.
But that's just a me thing. I don't care about cross-series comparisons, especially for something like Dragonball that has wonky physics to begin with.
"If you weren't so crazy I'd think you were insane."@IANCE Superman didn't become omnipotent because he was in the Sun for so long, he became omnipotent because he spent years to millennia training with the Source of the Multiverse, stayed in the Sun for 15,000 years, while using the last Green Lantern Power Ring to keep it all in him indefinitely, and ultimately formed a contract with the other Supermen who had started to appear which let him get their powers, which also led to him getting the powers of those reality-warping imps because one of them married their princess or something.
Let's see if you can get past my Beelzemon. Mephiles, WARP SHINKA!Weirder than the series with the talking shapeshifting pigs, the pink blob monsters that turn you into chocolate, the space alien monkeys who turn superpowerful by gaining dye jobs, and the immortal hermit who teaches you how to shoot energy blasts from your hands while wearing a turtle's shell on his back?
![]()
And manga/anime — particularly one with a Chinese communist shapechanging pig, little monkey-tailed boys that turn into apes, and an old man that wipes out the freaking moon by turning into a giant and firing a laserbeam of all things — isn't weird as fuck?
Well played sir. Well played.

Krillin's already taken, though. Is there anyone else in the franchise without a nose?
The *Legendary* Super Saiyan is motivated by a crying infant! He is a literal giant f***ing baby!
