Evidently Roshi would rather kill himself with a failed suicidal attack than ever fight seriously in the new Toriyama world...

What a sad joke.

 

[Fantastische Hure]

Is that real, because AT actually says something with numbers?

 

[Papasmurf]

The volume of F comment appears to be real. The mention of the 100 quintillion battle power might have just been something the news source added to the entry.

 

[FutureProtagonist]

Fuckin' hell. Is Toriyama incapable putting more than one second of thought into these questions? How about "he trained in secret after Boo" or something?

 

[Papasmurf]

This is somewhat even worse than the "Mr. Popo being Super Saiyan tier" shit in the Boo arc fillers considering that Roshi's made it abundantly clear he can't even approach Piccolo Daimao/Raditz/Nappa and died against one of them at that.

 

[Captain Cadaver]

Maybe he did train in secret after Boo, learning the power of "being as strong as I want". Either that, or he's DB's Aizen and was stringing everyone along as part of his grand plan, even planning both his deaths.

Roshi final villain confirmed. He may even have a climactic epic fight with Lord Spopovich.

This is now my favorite article of all time l0l.


Forgive me, as i have only seen the anime regarding this, but when Roshi beat Goku, didn't he say it was only because he duped Goku into that kick. Roshi himself has some kind of internal monolog about how his leg was longer, and would therefore be the first to impact.

Was Roshi lying to himself, and holding back the whole time? Answer me, Toriyama!

 

[Captain Cadaver]

That was in the manga too. I'm guessing Roshi's losses were for the same reasons as Spopovich not tearing shit up and making everyone his Spopobitches.

Okay, this just crossed the line

Don't ever forget to address him as Lord Spopovich

 

[FutureProtagonist]

There was actually some pretty brilliant setup to this. Remember how Gohan couldn't follow Yamcha and the Saibaimen? Remember how Roshi could follow Cell and Goku? Yeah.

It makes me wonder, does he even have to go buff to attain this Ultimate power, or is that all show for the ladies.

:what

 

[Captain Cadaver]

Obviously he still needs his Buff power. It's only through this that his testosterone can fully circulate around his body and awaken his infinite power of manliness. Don't you see his pythons, brotha?
