Shin Kikoho

[GSM123]

Seriously, how strong is that shit?

 

[SSJ2]

About as strong as Pikkon.

 

[Future Warrior]

Stronger than the Kikoho.

 

[withheldforprivacy]

As strong as SSJ Blue (this is how strong everyone is anyway).

 

[Captain Cadaver]

It's power is almost as vast as Tenshithands' shoulders are large.

Seriously, if talking about how powerful it was, pushing back Cell when he tanked a hit from #16 without budging should make it >> #16. In terms of what kind've amp, I'd give it a 125x amp, though that's due to running with a 10x SSJ multiplier during the pre-Rosat section of the Cell Arc to fit in line with Gero's calculation, otherwise it'd obviously be 5x that (625x amp).

 

[GSM123]

I don't know about it being >> 16... Tenshinhan pretty much watched Cell rape Piccolo and 17 saying he couldn't do shit.

 

[Captain Cadaver]

And yet he still did more than #16

I think it could be that Ten was also factoring in the prep time it'd take to launch the Shin Kikoho. He didn't expect #16 to do much against Shello, so he would've probably expected Cell to absorb #17 and maybe #18 by the time he could use it.

 

[Papasmurf]

I think Tenshithands is just deluded about the degree of his importance so it took him a while to accept he's worth more dead after kikoho spamming than he is alive

Or maybe just said "Fuck you reader" pulled out the Kikoho on the last second not caring about plot holes

I mean, taking all the statements seriously, the Shin Kikoho would be weaker than suppressed Cyborg Freeza.

 

[SSJ2]

Why?

 

[Evil Vegeta]

I don't think he was thinking about using the Neo Kikoho when he was watching Piccolo and #17. It was a last resort. The attack should be way above #16's shitty Hell's Flash attack, which only briefly stopped a weaker Imperfect Cell.

 

[GSM123]

Why?

Being able to kill Freeza is pretty much the benchmark between the SSJs and the plebs. If Tenshinhan can just pull of a Kikoho and kill Freeza there's nothing to worry about.

Why not? When Piccolo was pressumed to be death and 17 is about to be absorbed is the perfect time for him to act. Instead, Tenshinhan just watches like a bitch and says he can't do shit.

 

[SSJ2]

He didn't have the Neo Kikoho yet.

 

[GSM123]

Wtf is a Neo Kikoho

 

[SSJ2]

 

[GSM123]

Fuck Viz.

And what do you mean about him having no Shin Kikoho? A retcon?

 

[SSJ2]

When did he first use it again? Perhaps he gained the technique during the 3 year gap.

 

[Evil Vegeta]

Tien also said he was pretty useless when he left the group after the Android battle.

Chalk it up to the Neo Kikoho not being thought of by AT yet (likely occurrence) or him just refusing to use it for whatever reason.

It was risky for his life.

So were the Mafuba and Kikoho against Nappa. Didn't stop him trying in either case.
