It... doesn't really work.
'Cause Goku wouldn't know what the thing Milk is holding is.
...
Wait, was Chichi breasts, milk or breast milk?
Shit, I can never remember.

If I'm not mistaken, that fourth wall breaking attack is during his first fight with Yamcha.
I think Toriyama was telling us something there.
One Strip! One Strip!Poor Yamcha.
I recently realised that you could write Yamcha, Tenshinhan and Chiaotzu out of the plot of Z entirely and nothing would actually change. Against Nappa, the only person where it mattered that they died was Piccolo, and he ended up dying, anyway.
The only important thing that they did was when Tien stalled second-form Cell. And even then...did that really matter in the end?
The *Legendary* Super Saiyan is motivated by a crying infant! He is a literal giant f***ing baby!Sure, Raditz is laughably weak in the grand scheme of things.
But that doesn't mean that during his fight there wasn't tension, 'cause, guess what, he was the first ever villain to succesfully kill Goku.
In fact, he's the only villain to succesfully kill Goku. Against Cell Goku kinda killed himself.
Yes, I know technically Piccolo did it, but Piccolo would never have done it if it weren't for Raditz.

himitsu keisatsu seifu chokuzoku kokka hoanbu na no da himitsu keisatsu yami ni magireru supai katsudou torishimari@ Saiga: What I'm saying is, I'm not sure you need to build up the strength of the minions that much, because there will always be better villains and better heroes right down the pipeline.
Do this wrong and you end up with disappointments like (to use a recent example) Diamante. Not that Nappa isn't a better character than Diamante, of course.
But honestly, even within that saga, I found Nappa a little TOO invincible for my liking. Chiaotzu blows himself up, and it does NOTHING! Same with Tenshinhan's Kikoho (which at least affects Cell). And Gohan's Unstoppable Rage. I get it was to hype up Goku's eventual return, but I think Toriyama overdid it a little.
The *Legendary* Super Saiyan is motivated by a crying infant! He is a literal giant f***ing baby!I just think minions in manga tend to have a pretty high turnover rate, you know? I mean, sticking with Diamante here for a second, even if he had been impressive, I guarantee you that when we run into the guy with the equivalent role on, say, Kaido's crew, he'd make Diamante look like a chump either way.
Or a possibly better example from the same series, Lucci. Built up as the stuff of legends in his own arc. Two arcs later, we see his bosses already have mass-produced Mecha-Mooks better than him.
I've just been thinking of a way to make the power levels from Start of Z - Super Saiyan Goku grow a little less drastically. There's still that glaring issue where Vegeta says he can blow up the Earth (maybe), but it's only until Freeza's final form when destroying the planet actually becomes a big deal again. If Vegeta with a power level in the 20k range can blow up the Earth, then does that mean Zarbon and Dodoria can? Or the Ginyu Force? Or Nail? If so, why was that never an issue when they were fighting?

The real reason Goku didn't mind dying to Cell.
