How strong is base Goku?

[Power Level Guy]

It’s obviously Toriyama. People think he can do no wrong, but 90% of DBS’s problems come from him.

It was the manga that brought SSJ back first. Toriyama changed his mind from SSJG becoming base and Toei didn’t get the memo.

So where you at with Base power nowadays?

Base EoZ > Base ToP?

Really? Then how come the movies seem consistent with the normal form thing? Goku & Vegeta vs Broly & stuff seemed indicative of it.

It wasn’t. BoG had Goku absorb SSJG, and in RoF it was just base (Saiyan Beyond God) and SSJB.

Who knows. EoZ base isn’t the same anymore since Oob has god ki.

Yeah & they normal forms were power-full in the Broly movie.

That doesn’t mean he can access it at will though. Dai Kaisohin held his hand to bring it out.

Goku has forgotten about Uub as well.

Not really. They fight Broly a bit, but Broly wasn’t that strong in the beginning of the movie. The fights were 100% Toei too, Toriyama only does the words.

What in the anime made them feel weak? The anime is where we have the most base form action.

“He’s awesome! He’s starting to hold his own in his base form!” (or something like that)

I didn’t even think of this until today thanks to something else but this was Goku about Broly (when he was fighting SS-Jin Vegeta). Clearly their regular forms are supposed to be power-full on their own when AT writes.

I don’t get it? Your issue is that nobody calls them strong in the anime (even though they do)?

Yeah, except Goku fights Kuririn as a SSJ-Blue or Kuririn fighting with #18 or Kuririn & then being chosen-over Goten & Trunks despite the writers saying that Goten & Trunks were still more power-full. Or Goku fighting against Kale & Caulifla in his normal form & only winning because he’s more skilled (that skill sure helped him against Freeza on Namek.) Are you really trying to defend DB-Super anime writing?

It was retconned. Gokuu doesn't absorb shit in the manga.
