Nappa is boring. He's a big dumb brute.

Freeza got a lot of face time in the ep with some really crazy faces, they even did a Metal Cooler lineup of copies of him. Nappa was just where Krillin won.

Even Bardock got to be a dashing rogue who made his mark on history.

This is the man who forgot he had a son.

No, shut up, don't you know about the new canon? Bardock was a loving father and husband who sent Goku to Earth so he could escape Freeza and achieve his deeeeestiny.

Ugh. I wish there was a puke emoticon on TV Tropes.

[up][up] Now, I will say this about that retcon: it really does assuage my annoyance at the Contrived Coincidence that of the four Saiyans that weren't on Vegeta at the time, two of them were Bardock's sons. Him actively trying to get his kids away (especially since he had some idea at what Freeza was planning) actually does make more sense.

Bardock: You will travel far, my little Kakarot. But we will never leave you... even in the face of our death. The richness of our lives shall be yours. All that I have, all that I've learned, everything I feel... all this, and more, I... I bequeath you, my son. You will carry me inside you, all the days of your life. You will make my strength your own, and see my life through your eyes, as your life will be seen through mine. The son becomes the father, and the father the son. This is all I... all I can send you, Kakarot.

I mean, only Goku was sent away; Raditz was on a mission with Vegeta when the recall happened, and Vegeta pretty much told him that they weren't going back for whatever dumb thing Frieza might have wanted.

What makes it weird is that Frieza not only knew about the legend of the Super Saiyan, he knew about the legend of the Super Saiyan God as well.

He could probably kill Goku if he wasn't paying attention.

I've often wondered: how much of his battle power is Farmer and how much is Shotgun?

That's foolish Tobias. They are one, together joined as a single warrior.

He's no longer farmer or shotgun. He's the warrior who has long since forgotten his name.

We just call him Farmer with a Shotgun because he lets us.

Right but, like, if we used Shenron to undo the Potara, what would the batlte powers of Farmer and Shotgun be?

1 for Farmer,1 for with,1 for a,and 2 for shotgun.

I really hope their battle power was 5. tongue

That would make him one number below Goku at Super Saiyan God level. Goku was a 6, and Beerus a 10.

Farmer with Shotgun confirmed strongest mortal.

If they were still putting out Tenkaichi games, I'd say Farmer With Shotgun has to be in the next one.

No, you don't get it guys. The Farmer has a power level of 5, obviously, BUT...

Lets take into consideration what we've learned recently about guns in Dragon Ball Super. See, a regular barrel gun has a power level of at least 75-100k, seeing as Krillin was harmed by a bullet from one. And since this is CLEARLY true, that means a weapon like a shotgun has double the power level of a regular gun due to having two barrels, so it'd be at around 200k.

Unfortunately, the shotgun's power was dormant due to be in proximity of a weaker specimen. Had Raditz not been there and instead say...Ginyu, he would've awoken his power to the fight. And that's not even getting into his Super Shotgun form, which increases his power level 50 times, making him on par with Frieza (Hands behind Back/Final Form)

It's a shame guns or even weapons in general aren't really utilized in Xenoverse.Made DCUO so much fun in my memory,screw that filesize though.

If a gun can't even kill Goku at his absolute weakest, then it can't be helped really.

Honestly, I'm kinda sick of Guns Are Useless as a trope. It's just a cheap excuse to keep them from being a Game-Breaker from a meta standpoint, but I'd like to see some more creative ways to keep guns from become so powerful, while not making them completely valueless like so many series feel the need to do.

But that's not a relevant discussion in Dragonball really.
