Buu's a character whose fighting style is so out there it's more or less an instant win, though.

[up] It's probably why he's never used as a fighter. Heck, even GT had him fuse into the human and more vulnerable Uub.

Somehow Pure Buu was able to hurt him, and I'm not sure why.

He's only effective against himself.

My personal idea is that they used very-high energy attacks to harm each other, and had to use energy to regenerate (like Cell or Namekians) and due to Kid Buu having more energy and a higher power level than Fat Buu, he won.

Pretty much.

Fat Buu lasted as long as he did cause he can take a lot of punishment (likely due to his body being like Playdoh and absorbing the bulk of any blunt impact), and his own regeneration ability, but anything Fat Buu could do, Pure Buu can do better.

We know it takes complete incineration to destroy Buu (which most characters probably can do) but if you don't know that and you're not Beerus (who would probably be willing to use that much overkill, even if he didn't back during their fight), most would likely be bushwhacked by his regeneration power.

So how is Vegeta going to go SSG in Super? Try to get Bulma pregnant with quadruplets, or go see his brother and hope he has a few kids to use.

Great Saiyaman and Videl, drawn in a realistic style.

Great Saiyaman looks almost as Bad Ass as he thinks he is.

Though Gohan is a legitimate Bad Ass.....when he's not doing those damned poses and just punching things.

Ya know, if Gohan is chosen as one of the five fighters, I fully expect him to show up his Saiyaman outfit. And Goku & Vegeta are like "Oh god why"

@deadpoolrocks: According to Vegeta, he said he'd achieve it without the ritual.

But who knows?

Frieza managed to obtain a similar level of power without any confirmed ritual, so, eh, it's not impossible.

Vegeta's brute-forced just about everything else.

But that was apparently just Frieza's natural potential. Vegeta presumably doesn't have that because if he did he would have brought it out already.

[up]You know, if Goku still had his "I hate this because I didn't achieve it on my own" hangup from the movie, that would be an awesome way for Vegeta to one-up him! [lol]

Ok, who let Light Yagami in here?

Not only was a different (still bullshit) reason given for Freeza achieving that, but the power of Super Saiyan God has specifically been said to be something that can't be achieved alone.

They had better not make Vegeta get god on his own. That would be so many levels of stupid.

For gods sake, we already did a "Vegeta temporarily surpasses Goku" moment in Super. They've played their trump card. Giving Vegeta ANOTHER new powerup that he gets because man isn't Vegeta so awesome guys will be really annoying. At least imo.

I really don't think they'll have Vegeta do the ritual. Maybe Whis will help him to find an alternative way to reach a god form. But I don't know why they'd have him say he wants to reach super saiyan god on his own if he's going to give on that idea a few episodes later.

Dragon Ball stuff on the latest V-Jump.

  • Dragon Ball Heroes: SSJ4 GT Gohan is gonna have a second card, there's gonna be a bunch of new cards related to DBS and for some reason McDonalds exclusive cards. Also, one screenshot shows that Champa will be a boss.
  • DBH Ultimate Mission 2: The latest DLC for the 3DS port will unlock SSJ4 Broly, SSJ4 GT Gogeta and a mystery character.
  • Dragon Ball Discross: Champa will make his first playable appearance in this game. Weird choice, I surely thought he'd appear playable in DBH first.
  • Dokkan Battle: Broly and the Meta Cooler (5 different versions) army invade the game.
  • Extreme Butoden: An update adds Farmer Goku, Dancing Vegeta, Cop Krillin (not pictured), Mira and Towa assists.

In fact, here's gameplay of the new assist characters!

It's funny how DBH is now weird what-if characters and Extreme Butoden has wacky and obscure assist characters. Now imagine a DB game that has both crazy what-ifs AND wacky characters!

Farmer Goku and Super Satan vs Beebus and Dancing Vegeta.
