I mean, from what we saw, Burter was really damn fast when he got going.

I have a message from another time...

Burter and Jeice bring that they are complementary to Ginyu. Burter is taller and blue, while Jeice is shorter and red. Ginyu is average and purple. It makes sense.

Really, you should be wondering why Recoome isn't yellow.

Wait, King Cold isn't as strong as Freeza? Didn't someone say that they had about the same power level when they were approaching Earth? You know, when Freeza was a cyborg and King Cold was clearly in his second form?

[up]The anime made someone say he was stronger than Frieza, but in the manga he's clearly weaker. The anime, rather paradoxically, had King Cold later say Trunks was now the strongest in the universe since he killed Frieza.

Maybe it's the fact that Burter is dead that makes Whis the fastest by default!

But is Burter faster than the sound of one hand clapping? Is he faster than the answer to why kids love Cinnamon Toast crunch? Is he faster than Rob's hatred lighting up at the sound of the name "Uchiha"?

So it finally clicked with me that Raditz is Goku's brother.

Why is Raditz so weak then? Like is it just a lack of opportunity to reach Goku power levels or?

Raditz was over two times stronger than Goku when he came to Earth.

Also, I don't think the Saiyans trained ever. At least, it didn't seem like Vegeta really trained until after Namek.

Well it's like yeah he's his brother but it I just sorta realized that he's the blood relative of Goku and son of Bardock. He should have power levels out the ass.

Like on paper Raditz has the potential to be the most powerful dude in the universe.

Goku isn't as strong as he is because of genetics. It's all nurture baby.

Also, I think King Kai says in the manga that the Saiyans train at high gravity with weights so.

Bardock and Raditz are low-class jabronis. The fact that Goku is as strong as he is is the entire point of the character. With nothing but hard work and blind luck, he became millions of times stronger than he was ever supposed to.

Goku is an anomaly.

...well, him, and Vegeta, too. But Vegeta only managed to break the system because of Goku.

Well genetics are partly responsible for Goku being as strong as he is. It's just general saiyan genetics instead of familial ties, mixed in with his insane training.

Yeah. Raditz is as powerful as he is because he's an adult Saiyan who lived a Saiyan lifestyle of traveling the cosmos genociding planets and getting zenkais whenever he got his shit kicked in so hard it came out of his face.

And "as powerful as he is" far outweighed Goku until he got to train under a magical divine being on a planet with 10x Earth's gravity that only exists in the afterlife, while wearing his weighted training equipment - which, so far, Earth seems to be the only planet that's thought of that.

...I'm not really willing to hold it against Raditz that he's never had the same opportunity. The closest he came is Planet Vegeta being a 10x gravity world and, despite that being used as a Hand Wave for why the Saiyans are so strong, most of the survivors were children when it exploded so it's impossible to say how much benefit he even got from that.

Meanwhile, he pales in comparison to Vegeta and Nappa because they're elites while he and Goku are the Saiyan equivalent of garbage, genetically speaking.

Going back a bit, I think King Cold is weaker than Frieza, but because he's in his second form, whereas Frieza is in his fourth and final form.

What happened to your third form?
