Did Grey Boo have some influence from the Kaioshins?

He still had the cape, boots and glove, which are the vests from Dai Kaioshin:

Maybe that's the difference between Grey Boo and kid Boo? The former still has some influence from the Kaioshins, although very suppressed.

 

[Evil Vegeta]

I think that was just a matter of how he was created. He was Pure Evil and Mr. Boo was devoid of evil. I don't think it'd make sense for Pure Evil Boo to have any Dai Kaioshin influence when Mr. Boo basically has it all. Super Boo has more Kaioshin influence than Pure Evil Boo and yet he resembles Kid Boo more so than any other Boo.

Super Boo seems strange. He seems like an adult version of Kid Boo.

What do you think it's the difference between Grey Boo and Kid Boo?

 

[Evil Vegeta]

It's weird. They're both pure evil. The main difference seems to be in personality and power. Pure Evil Boo isn't a mindless monster, but he's weaker than Kid Boo.

Fat Boo-Evil=Pure Evil Boo and Mr. Boo

So you're left with a Boo that no longer has evil and a Boo that's entirely evil. Super Boo is a weird hybrid.

Super Boo-Mr. Boo=Kid Boo after transitioning through another form.

Bringing Boo back to his original form.

Vegeta did see that Fat Boo created Pure Evil Boo and warned Goku that leaving him alive might lead to him creating another terrible Boo. Logically, Pure Evil Boo and Kid Boo should be the same, but we know they're not. Maybe Pure Evil Boo wasn't able to retain all of the power because he was popped out through anger or something. Removing Mr. Boo made Super Boo power-up (this shouldn't have even been possible) to the form that absorbed the South Kaioshin...before reverting to Kid Boo. We also know Kid Boo possessed a lot more power than they expected. Maybe awakening the South Kaioshin form of Kid Boo allowed him to tap into more power than Pure Evil Boo, who seemingly was created with a set amount of power?

I honestly got nothing here.

Super Boo going to Buff Boo before reverting to Kid Boo seems also somewhat strange. He seemed to have been through a huge effort when in the buff form and then, when changed back to kid Boo, he was sweating. I think Super Boo needed Mr. Boo to access most of the power granted by South Kaioshin... I believe both Dai Kaioshin and South Kaioshin were jammed inside Mr. Boo or something like this.

 

[Evil Vegeta]

Yeah, one of the explanations I went with was that Super Boo unlocked a significant portion of South Kaioshin Boo's power once he absorbed Mr. Boo. Since Mr. Boo still had that kindness, he was basically a limiter that kept the remaining power inaccessible. Boo was able to briefly access that remaining power when Mr. Boo was removed for some reason, but then it just..disappeared and Kid Boo appeared.

Boo is just magical shit thrown together.

I think the cape, boots, and gloves were to represent the pure evil side of Fat Boo. I mean, after all, Boo wasn't pure evil anymore after he absorbed Dai Kaioshin. He just did what Bibidi and Babidi told him to do.

 

[withheldforprivacy]

Maybe Kaioshins had some evil in them and that evil was the influence still in Grey Buu.

 

[Let's Go Fearless!]

RandomGuy96 did a theory about this.

What the thread title said. Let's ignore power level arguments about how much stronger than Kid Buu Super Buu is for the moment. I've been thinking a bit, and I think I kinda figured out one of the greatest mind screws of the series: why Super Buu reverts to Kid Buu after fatso is ripped out, even though Super Buu himself is just Evil Buu with fatso absorbed.

The premise is basically this: the Good Buu that Evil Buu absorbed and the Good Buu that Vegeta ripped out (who shall now be referred to as Mr.Buu to differentiate him from the previous Buu) are different, due to an automatic restructuring of Buu's body after Super Buu was formed.

When Fat Buu got angrier than he's ever gotten, his power spiked due to accessing his hidden ki and his anger swelled within him. His evil ki took a new form, the being we know as Evil Buu. Now, even though this being is pure evil, the fact that it came out of a Kaioshin dominated being means it has Kaioshin influence and probably even Kaioshin ki in it, albeit unusable ki. It's clothing and sickly appearance if anything implies that the Kaioshin influence inside is detrimental, as the Dai Kaioshin had a weakening effect on Buu when he was absorbed.

This piece of the Kaioshin influence and power is what makes Evil Buu and Kid Buu different; Kid Buu really ceased to exist after Fat Buu formed, as Dai Kaioshin and Pure Buu couldn't exist inside the same being. However, his essence and power were still there, falling under the umbrella of Fat Buu's evil. This essence and power was scrounged up along with said Kaioshin ki and influence (I will now just refer to that as "Evil Buu's impurities") to create Evil Buu. Evil Buu, unlike Kid Buu, could actually talk and recognize the gains of becoming whole, further showing his Kaioshin influence, which gave him more intellect (embodied in Super Buu). When Evil Buu and Good Buu united, the evil being dominate essentially resulted in Kid Buu being reborn, and becoming the base of Super Buu (just look at them; they look the same except Super is taller and more muscular). What happened next was essentially an automatic purification and rearrangement of Buu's body.

Which brings us to Mr.Buu. Due to the above rebirth, all of the impurities that diluted Kid Buu's essence within Evil Buu were taken out and placed in a new convenient package- Mr.Buu. This made Mr.Buu stronger than the earlier Good Buu. These impurities, unlike the rest of the Kaioshin power, couldn't be used by Super Buu (evidenced by Buff Buu being stronger than Super), but they could be used by Mr.Buu (post-split). Basically the second split between the Buus was the more perfect split, as both Buus were at their maximum possible powers and not missing pieces.

Evil Buu = Kid Buu + impurities (may be unusable and/or detrimental)

Good Buu = Rest of Kaioshin ki/essence

Super Buu = Kid Buu + Good Buu (most of Kaioshin power) + Evil Buu's impurities (unusable power)

Kid Buu = Evil Buu - impurities

Mr. Buu = Good Buu + Evil Buu's impurities

In other words, Mr. Buu = South Kaioshin + Dai Kaioshin. As in, their power and their essence, not the Kaioshin themselves; they've long since ceased to exist, and Mr. Buu is his own being.

This, among other things, explains why Super Buu didn't turn into Kid Buu, and why Mr.Buu was able to land hits and put up a fight against Kid Buu when he got annihilated by Evil Buu. Though from a strictly power level perspective it requires you to believe that Super Buu isn't multi-folds above Kid Buu- but that's not the point of this. Just from a basic logical perspective, how does this theory sound? What is your own theory?

Something interesting that a guy from neoseeker has brought up (I've already noticed Super Boo looked a bit different upon being formed, but just thought it was AT not being decided as to what his designer would look like).

When Grey Boo eats Good Boo, there's a version of Majin Boo that looks like an adult version of Kid Boo:

Which then suddenly turns into a different designer after the scream:
