unnoun: Ah, that's right. I knew it was even less often than on Earth but I couldn't remember the number.

Yeah, the ability to mate only once a century or whatever makes it a terrible waste of energy. There we go, problem solved.

[up][up]First, that's not necessarily confirmed, Frieza mentions his parents plural getting dust on him at one point.

I think. Ask Saiga.

Second, I really, honestly don't care about the genitalia involved and never have, my actual concern is why and how clothes appear when they were gone and disappear when they were there. Because I think it's dumb.

Clothes beam and declothes beam.

Even then, you know that America would be the censoring the hell out of that, since it's still supposed to be a children's show.

...I'm still confused about what there would even be to censor if Super Saiyan 4 had no pants, but there weren't any visible genitalia.

Like. There's nothing there to cover up is my idea.

...I found some fanart of what I'm talking about but it's weird and dumb and it involves Krillin going Super Saiyan 4 and I'm like whaaaaaa

Like. Here it is.

Ignoring everything that is dumb about that picture, just. The crotch. What is so bad, so lewd, so NSFW, so explicit, graphic, etc. about that crotch. That pelvis. That place where the legs meet the body.

What is there to censor about that image? What even can you censor? Like. I'm legitimately curious because it got brought up and I'm confused.

What can you censor there, especially when Goku's junk has been onscreen uncensored before?

(only Vegeta knows how to make the power ball thing; Goku doesn't)

Well surely it wouldn't be too hard for Goku to learn. I mean, obviously Vegeta wouldn't teach it on purpose, but maybe Goku could pick it up by observation, or Bulma could show him the right type of radiation he'd need to create.

[up]x4 Yeah see, that looks weird to me. It's like someone completely gave up on designing the lower half of the body and just decided "Forget it, he's a monkey, it doesn't matter."

Does Goku even know how to produce radiation though? Like, physical radiation should be fairly different than releasing a metaphysical form of energy. Plus, didn't it just convert sunlight reflecting off it into the same frequency as Blutz Waves?

[up][up]...It's still less painful to me than the bright yellow pants.

Like, Vegeta's pants get a pass from me, because they look better, and he was wearing them when he transformed and they weren't shown getting destroyed.

And, like. If Goku ever learned the clothes beam from Piccolo I'd also be slightly more okay with it.

The pants being ugly is one thing, them being nonsensical is just insult to injury.

I mean, the form also naturally makes you taller, seeing as how Goku towered over everyone not named Piccolo when he's in that state.

What about Buu? Why would he even need pants to begin with?

[up][up]See, I'm not even interested in that. Maybe Buu just wants to look fashionable. He's a magical creation of a wizard ancient eldritch abomination that can look like whatever he wants.

...Also, given his pants reform and regenerate when he does, including when he turns into smoke, I imagine they're actually part of his body. So.

Goku's clothes aren't part of his body, because we've seen him without them. Several times! Like, even in Z, there was that one filler where he was taking a bath with Goten and Trunks and they fused into Gotenks and he turned Super Saiyan 3 and they got out of the tub and we saw Goku's bare ass.

So. It's glaring when he goes from not having pants to having pants without explanation.

Like, have Pan throw them to him. Have him teleport to his closet on Earth using Instant Transmission, or just fly there really fast because how high his power level is makes him super fast.

I think you might be taking this a little too seriously. Vegetto, Gogeta, and Gotenks all spontaneously grow new clothes and, as said in TFS, Goku went to the afterlife with clothes he wasn't wearing at the time. Clothes magic is a thing in-universe.

Yeah I'd just go with "the immense amount of energy generated from going Super Saiyan 4 produces enough clothions to create a new pair of pants".

[up][up]...But none of those other instances look as glaringly bad though, so they're less offensive to me.

[up] ...But not enough for a new shirt?

Because the other weird thing is that it creates one but not the other.

I mean, Kami is the reason Goku had his body at all. He probably just took his clothes for him too.

I'm gonna have to go on a rampage here if this shit continues.

I guess we could talk about Yamcha's genitalia, if you really want to Rob, though I'd rather not.

And you're the first victim PMC. I hope you're proud of yourself.

Now, y'all know me. HandsomeRob is a rational, reasonable human being.

But I will destroy all things everywhere if this keeps up.

unnoun. Super Saiyan 4 Goku has pants because nobody wants to see him without Pants. Argument finished.

I win. Mwa ha ha ha.

See. You can't stop me. I have the strength of a million troopers, which is equivalent to 1 Whis. That's ludicrous strength. You can't deny it. It's proven by science.

So no more penis talk.

For the love of god, no more Penis talk.
