  1. Captain Cadaver

    Manga/Anime where the final villain loses to a previous main villain?

    Can't really think of a case where it was the final villain, though if broadening it to an arc's villain being defeated by previous yet active villains, there's Strong the Budo/Chojin Enma being defeated by Akuma Shogun (still very much the main villain of the franchise) in the continuation of...

    Good Mango With Historical Settings?

    Lone Wolf and Cub does an excellent job at capturing the Edo period setting and immersing the audience within it, as well as avoiding any major historical inaccuracies. Rurouni Kenshin is another good ronin manga with a traditional Japanese setting (Meiji Period rather than Edo), though it's...
  3. Captain Cadaver

    Goku Base (Arc Super # 17) runs the DBZ Gauntlet.

    Wouldn't make a difference when the best destructive feat there was a Galaxy level one of Goku shaking Other World by going SS3 (something far inferior to Base GT Goku's similar feat). Hard to say, but I'd probably give it to Goku via scaling.

    Rereading Berserk

    Finished Volume 21 the Conviction Arc. Puck making a Saint Seiya reference is a sign of the way his character will go downhill into a tonally inconsistent 4th wall breaker. The fight with Mozgus is otherwise pretty good though with Guts' declarations about "God" being fitting of one who went...

    How strong is the Golden Monkey state?

    If Golden Oozaru brought a Saiyan's battle power to its utmost limits, saying the same for SS4 as well as referring to it as the mightiest warrior and strongest form would be a tad redundant. On top of that, the damage Baby was receiving from SS4 Galu's punches were far more significant than the...

    Goku Base (Arc Si Xing Long) vs Baby Vegeta Golden Monkey?

    I'd probably place them as equals, so SS4 Goku wins due to having Shunkan Ido and the 10x Kamehameha.
  7. Captain Cadaver

    Goku Base (Arc Super # 17) runs the DBZ Gauntlet.

    Someone who can produce a Multi-Galaxy level feat just from flaring up their Ki solos Z, unless perhaps if we include hypothetical characters like SS3 Vegetto.
  8. Captain Cadaver

    SSJ Future Gohan (1 arm) vs SSJ Goku (Namek)

    Gohan wins without too much difficulty, if any. Trunks wasn't suggested to become any stronger between being beaten by #17/18 and killing Freeza, and was stated at that time to be comparable to Gohan.

    Since the bandwagon for this has appeared...

    In fairness, Sasuke basically up and leaves his wife and child whenever he feels like it without any sort of quest for deeper meaning, so Kishimoto's at least consistent in presenting it as a one-sided thing :troll. @Fantastische Hure The first three are serviceable, though a bit run of the...

    Rereading Berserk

    Volume 20: The Egg of the Perfect World is easily one of the most interesting Apostles within the manga with its overall selfless goals as well as how it manipulated both factions upon the holy ground to accomplish the God Hand's desires. Luca also displays her uniqueness with her dialogue with...

    Blutz Rays increase Baby Vegeta's power?

    Nothing suggests Baby powered up from the Bruits Waves. A fatigued Goku saying he thinks Baby looks a little bigger than before doesn't really say much as, not only could this just be in size rather than power, but this is from the perspective of a very tired individual. All that is known for...

    Rereading Berserk

    Volume 19: Isidrobi-Wan Kenobi coming through with his use of the high ground :troll. Seriously though, this is one of the few times where Isidro's input will be pretty valuable and it's good to see him act a little selflessly. I'd also say Luca shows herself to be in many ways a female...

    Do Your Main Stores Sell Manga?

    Depends whether or not you count WHSmith as a book store. If so, then no.
  14. Captain Cadaver

    Since the bandwagon for this has appeared...

    Hard to say for Naruto/Hinata since there's at least something going on there with the whole opposites attract aspect (and maybe Naruto realising she's a far more healthy relationship choice than Sakura), but definitely makes more sense than Sakura going full Stockholm Syndrome on the guy who...
  15. Captain Cadaver

    Goku SSJ4 Kamehameha x10 (Initial) vs Goku SSJ4 (FP)?

    FP SS4 Goku most likely. Even though the 10x Kamehameha knocked Baby out, it still had a delayed effect and Rou-Dai Kaioshin was also attributing the forced nature of the Golden Oozaru transformation as stressing Baby prior to that. Meanwhile, FP SS4 Goku was able to easily best a fully...

    Gap between Trunks and 100% Mecha Freeza

    They're both Super Saiyans. That's more than enough reason for them to have similar Ki signatures when it's been made apparent Ki can display certain personality traits (eg. the many references to evil Ki) and it's apparent the SSJ state has many changes (eg. Kaio noting how the desire to fight...

    Piccolo (Post Roast)

    Pot-Roast Pickle's displaying quite a bit of age. Guess Kami's the one in charge when he's grilling :troll.
  18. Captain Cadaver

    Did Roshi have his buff form in in his prime?

    Iirc, most sources that comment on the form such as the Tenkaichi games mention how the Max Power state took Roshi years to attain this state, so most likely not.

    Rereading Berserk

    Volume 18: Silat shows some good development for what's quite the minor character in his cameo with him learning from his arrogance in his fight with Guts and placing value on the lives of the Bakiraka, something that also says much about how the deaths of those seen in the Golden Age impacted...

    Metallic vs General Blue

    Blue displayed far better durability feats than Metallic with him surviving his plane crashing into a mountain, whereas the Goku that Metallic fought was likely comparable to his 21st TB self who displayed nothing close to Large Building level feats. Regardless of how he compares in power, Blue...
