    Ki Amp

    I get that, but I chalk that up to bad writing that we just have to work with. This is why p likes discarding the 2.2x amp these days. I wouldn't say it's nonexistent on Namek btw. It's pretty reasonable that Vegeta's blast against final form Freeza is amped, no? It has to be. Freeza kicks it...

    Ki Amp

    Ki amp has never changed your power level, not in the way you’re describing. It’s only the ki blast itself that reads higher. You’re fundamentally misunderstanding what ki amp is. Raditz: “He…He can raise his battle power by concentrating it into a single point!!!”

    50% Freeza

    You do not need redundant statements when there's already another statement telling you what you need to know.

    Why are manga more gag than their anime counter-parts?

    I find it’s pretty hard for some jokes to translate onto the screen in terms of comedic timing. The “punchiness” of the static visual form is lost.

    Clannad is the worst anime I ever had the misfortune of subjecting my eyes, ears and brain to

    That scene where the mc laments the fact that he can't shoot a basket anymore and the fmc faints is peak comedy, funniest shit I've ever seen

    Freeza kicking Vegeta’s blast > increased speed?

    It almost killed him. Whatever. Nothing says he should've died there (but he really probably should've, even more so when Gohan bashed his head in than when he fell on him). In all seriousness, Vegeta's durability is the same as Burter being faster than Jeice or 17 being quicker than he is...

    Freeza kicking Vegeta’s blast > increased speed?

    Krillin vs Vegeta showed that durability correlates with your current power. Stamina loss is a different thing. Cell can beat Goku even with a senzu despite his own stamina loss because he has additional reserves to pull from (though if Cell was mortally wounded and couldn't regenerate like...

    Freeza kicking Vegeta’s blast > increased speed?

    No. We're shown directly with Krillin vs Vegeta that it doesn't work that way. The Freeza and Cell fights as a whole don't work if it works that way. Spirit Bomb is explained by it not being strong enough.

    Freeza kicking Vegeta’s blast > increased speed?

    Non sequitur. Durability scales with your current power (directly shown when Krillin maims Vegeta), and if you're strong enough then you won't take damage. That's all that proves. This is Piccolo taking no damage from an attack, proving nothing except that the attack (possibly after being...

    Ki blast amp discusssion thread

    Nappa and Vegeta powering up is like flexing a muscle. Krillin and Gohan etc suppressing their ki is like magically reducing their actual muscle mass.

    Freeza kicking Vegeta’s blast > increased speed?

    I used to headcanon a small amp but it looks like the more popular route now is no amp. But I think a small amp makes sense. There must be some advantage to using KHH over, I dunno, an unnamed blast. Daizenshuu 7 probably undersold 50% Freeza because it assumed no amp too. Goku already...

    Freeza kicking Vegeta’s blast > increased speed?

    Yes, it is. It doesn't need to be tremendous, it needs to be enough to barely block KHH at the last second. Freeza is not so good at ki control that he can freely use e.g. his full power in bursts like Piccolo can later on (70% might be the most he can manage.) Goku's statement functionally...

    Freeza kicking Vegeta’s blast > increased speed?

    Goku commented on how Freeza wasn't bluffing about using 50% after all, there's no good explanation for that if all Freeza did was block at his current level. He had to have powered up there, but he wouldn't necessarily need to stay at that level after because Goku was dead meat. After the...

    Freeza kicking Vegeta’s blast > increased speed?

    Logically he must have because it actually threatened to kill him. No one says anything about it but we can cut them some slack, they weren’t really paying attention.

    Freeza kicking Vegeta’s blast > increased speed?

    Yes, it would've been a quick burst like Goku vs the Ginyus.

    Freeza kicking Vegeta’s blast > increased speed?

    Goku's still hoping against hope that Freeza's bluffing about holding back, all the way up until he charges up Kaioken x20. If Freeza powers up a little bit to block the KHH, then that confirms he's holding back, and it's most likely by 50% since there's not much reason for Freeza to be honest...
