I think that either was me, or I agreed with it. I can't fully re-call.

But yeah. It would be cool. I think it would require some of Doctor Gero's notes however. He did make tech that enhanced humans to the point of being as strong as Super Saiyans. And Bulma not only studied some of it to create the Remote to shut down 17 and 18, but also got a chance to look at 16 when he was damaged.

Two Geniuses combined would make something incredible.

  • BULMA: Alright, guys, I've built this amazing super-suit that will power up a human to be as strong as the Androids are. Who wants to wear it?
  • TIEN: Well, naturally, as the strongest human, I think I should—
  • KRILLIN: You are not the strongest human.
  • TIEN: Talk to the fans.
  • YAJIROBE: Why am I here?
  • BULMA: We needed one more person for this skit and I don't want to get Yamcha all over my amazing new invention.
  • KRILLIN: Does it amplify our powers?
  • BULMA: No, it uses its own power. Your battle power is completely irrelevant.
  • YAJIROBE: Then why don't you drive it?
  • BULMA: My husband's ego is fragile enough, thanks.
  • VEGETA: *from offscreen* I WILL DEFEAT YOU!!!
  • KRILLIN: Wow, he must be training hard.
  • BULMA: No, that's just how he snores.

...Having sentient beings that have a dyno-cap function would be freaky.

I mean, what would it be like to be in one of those capsules?

Of course, having a time travel function that you could activate at will would also be weird.

Quite frankly, there's not a lot that's keeping Bulma from taking over the world other than the fact that she's so rich she practically owns it already.

I think it might have been something added for the dub, but it's not out of place considering what the actual names are like.

Well, he is a king. And he's covered in fur. So King Furry. At least he's not King Fuzzybutt.

Although, if that one guy is king of the Earth, then what is Ox King in charge of?

Also, why exactly did Chichi decide to give up her royal palace to live in the woods with some bum?

Also also, why aren't Gohan and Goten royalty?

We also see a number of regional rulers in filler, if that means anything.

I mean, Ox King's castle does seem to have this inexplicable tendency to spontaneously catch on fire.

I guess you're asking for it when you build in a place called Frypan Mountain though.

And then they rebuilt it and it caught on fire again.

Ox King isn't actually a King though. He's just a very big and strong guy who was very rich and lived in a castle.

That's basically what a king is though.

And beating people up to give you their money and food.

Like that one village.

Ox KingWATCH OUT  is as much a "King" as Emperor Pilaf is an Emperor; he's a rich guy who rules over his own property. If we want to be really generous, we might call him the leader of a micro-nation; Pilaf rules over a sum total of two subjects, and we're never given much indication that Ox King has any subjects at all.

Every kingdom starts somewhere.

Most start as protection rackets.

EDIT: What about King Chappa?

Come to think of it, wasn't there a thing where Ox King didn't even feel Goku's attacks when they first met?

He doesn't seem to know the Kamehameha, but. He does seem kinda ridiculously strong aside from that.

EDIT: Going back a bit, wasn't there a thing where, when 19 and 20 were introduced, Goku punched 20 and knocked off his hat and revealed the brain case?

Why would android 20 have a brain case if he wasn't Dr. Gero?

Rest in pieces, Frieza! Since I already read Cell, that's just the Buu arc left!
