In terms of a list from least to most favorite, it would go Quitela, Rumsshi, Belmod, Mosco, Heles and Sidra.

Quitela's in an odd spot for me in that I want him to be my favorite for being a smug jackass who relies on trickery and deception, but his execution is just bad. Or more accurately, his team's performance is bad enough that he looks like an idiot by association.

Mine would be Quitela, Belmod, Sidra, Heles, Rumsshi and Mosco. Rumsshi gets second place not because of any positive traits, but just because the others annoy me a lot more.

Vegeta never regew his tail and his post zenkai power only matched Goku's Kaio-ken x3 so if Goku got a zenkai it's no guarantee he'd win

You know things are bad when your best guys are some random duck dude, an invisible gecko, and a microscopic bug.

At least the bug eliminated Piccolo.

It also doesn't help that 3 of his fighters were eliminated by an old pervert as well. [lol]

Vegeta would logically get a Zenkai boost as well and Goku needs Kaioken to just keep up with Vegeta, something he can't spam. However you slice it, Vegeta's ahead and too dangerous to keep alive, since unlike, say, Freeza Goku didn't have a clear overriding superiority in power.

He just said Veggie's boost only brought him up to Kakarrot's Kaioken x3 from their first battle.

Yes, something Goku can't spam. Goku's Kaioken is not enough of a lead to kill or maim Vegeta before it burns Goku out. Or rather, it's possible, but it's far from guaranteed.

Meh. All Goku needed to beat Vegeta easily was a week in the artificial gravity ship, and that was after Veggie got another big Zenkai.

People give Freeza a lot of crap for his "four months", but I found this to be at least as bad.

That was a week of basically getting Zenkais constantly.

Not that Zenkai is any less bullshit.

Yeah, it's extremely inconsistent, but you can't argue that Goku just hopped past Vegeta in a clean week. There was another factor there, one that had been previously established.

I think we're kinda talking past each other here. I'm not too much bothered by Zenkai (though it is complete bullshit). I'm bothered by the timeframe. Goku went from barely able to keep up with Vegeta using his strongest Kai-o-ken, to ragdolling the entire Ginyu Force without any multipliers in a week.

I mean, talk about making power come easy whenever the protagonist needs it. At least the hyperbolic time chamber demanded you to maintain that sort of regimen for an entire year.

If Vegeta had decided to just go back to Earth, he would've come back while Goku was still a quadriplegic and everyone would've died instantly.

That depends on how long Vegeta was in that healing chamber.

Also, on how long it would have taken him to come back from that random Frieza planet.

which is your least favorite and favorite?

Design-wise I like the one that looks like a black Kuriboh. I kind of like Belmod, but only for the external reason of likening him to the Joker.

Belmod would be my favorite for that petty reason, and least favorite would probably be Champa since there's really not all that much to him. I like how his and Beerus's rivalry resembles Goku and Vegeta's.

Who would win, Saiyan Saga Yamcha or Buu Saga Videl?

As we all know, if a villain who's been defeated comes back again, he's already so far behind that it's laughable he was ever a threat.

It happened with Tao Pai Pai, it happened with Frieza the first time, and it should have stayed a thing.

But Toriyama suddenly started riding the Frieza hype train.

With Freeza, I've been suspecting for a while that they're trying to position him as an "archenemy" figure to Goku (suggesting an intention to keep the revival going without a definite endgame), a thing this series has never really had before.

Videl might beat Nam or General Blue, but Saiyan Saga Yamcha beat a Saibaman. A better fight would be against 21st Tenkaichi Budokai Yamcha.

Nah see, all Videl would need to do is pretend to be unconscious then when Yamcha has his back turned jump and kick him in the head.
