Just finished rereading volume 1, decent twist with the body double of the King and the other plot development so far. I'll post my thoughts volume by volume until I finally catch up on the 800 chapters this manga has :king
Cell wins mid diff. He's considerably stronger than Trunks, moreso than Vegeta and can take hits from Kamiccolo far better than Vegeta did once #18 got serious.
Nothing can surpass Beerus unless they were written as superior to him from day 1 (angels, Zen-oh)
SSJ2 PM Vegeta :kenshi and SPC vs. SSJ2 Boo arc Goku
Vegeta was over double his base power and the only times Goku surpassed his power were when he pushed his body past its limits and crippled himself as a result. Think of it like how Goku could only beat #13 and Janenba using moves that weren't his original power that he can use stably without...
I sometimes just go by the fan theory that the weaker blast that got overpowered cushions the blow from the stronger blast. It's the only way to make sense of Piccolo, Vegeta and Freeza not being vaporized from Goku's blasts.
That's why I go with Gohan being SSJ1. Makes everything make more sense, other than that retarded dialogue of Kibito being told he hadn't seen the Saiyans at their greatest power. I also think the Majin charm unlocking Vegeta's SSJ2 for him is retarded because he only went SSJ when suffering...
Goku already revealed his ace move against suppressed PC so my money's on SPC due to his regen and more haxed abilities. It'll be a very close fight though.
I go with Gohan > SSJ1 adults. He's still able to keep up with and even briefly overwhelm a Cell tier opponent (regardless of whether he's using MSSJ tier or SSJ2 tier power), I see no reason to inflate PM Vegeta to the extent that he can defeat an SSJ2 when even with the Majin Boost and SSJ2 he...
Wasn't Cell's time machine destroyed from the inside? If 17 and 18 weren't around, I'd think the first thing he'd do would be to interrogate one of the weaker Z senshi or ambush Trunks again for information and then find them in Gero's lab. Even if he were to steal Trunks' time machine he'd...
