28th Goten and Trunks

[SSJ2]

I forget how strong they are.

Goku said that Good Boo should have been easy for them, but they were scared to take him on. Do we assume the tournament was Base only?

I don't think the Base only rule is necessarily in effect during the 28th TB. Gohan's secret is already out of the bag, and he doesn't even have to worry about it anymore because he's not in high school anymore. It's a possibility it is, but again, not necessary.

 

[SSJ2]

So SSJ Goten/Trunks << Good Boo?

So maybe SSJ kids = Boo arc SSJ2 adults?

 

[Six Trails]

It doesn't have to be a << gap, I don't think. Just a solid < gap. I think there's enough room for Goten and Trunks to be in between Boo and the SS2s.

 

[SSJ2]

Calling them SSJ2 tier seems easier to me. Goten being deathly afraid to go against Boo tells me that there is still a very good gap.

I thought I remembered goku saying goten didn't keep up with his training

I thought I remembered goku saying goten didn't keep up with his training

He said he "keeps slacking off" in his training which means he kept doing it but also kept slacking. It is a present form of sentence.

If he had never trained since buu arc the proper tense would be "kept". Or it would not contain either and the verb would not contain +ing (usually +ed in those cases. ).

 

[Pyro]

I interpreted Goku's words as, "If you had kept training consistently, Boo would be no problem for you." In other words, Goten could have potentially been able to easily beat Boo, but he slacked off, so he never got to that point. It doesn't mean Goten isn't nearing that point (at least in Super Saiyan), but he'd get beat for sure.

SS Goten (28th TB, Goku's intention) >>> Good Boo >>/> SS Goten (28th TB) >>> SS Goten (Boo saga)
