The War Within Alpha - Warbands Feature Overview
MMO-Champion
Didn't he land on Namek, and locate Gohan fighting the Ginyu force and fly across the planet pretty much instantly? Like he left the ship and he was there. The only time it ever seemed to take hours was during the saiyan saga when he wasn't really all that fast. Namek? Instant travel by him on the planet. Buu Saga? Same thing from what I remember. Even when he's done healing in the ship after Ginyu he gets to Frieza within seconds to help Vegeta out. After that he just uses instant transmission for the rest of the show but I would assume he keeps getting faster.Originally Posted by Pendulous
The Goku at the end of DBZ(even pre-time skip) could prob do the entirety of snakeway within seconds going all out.
But yes I also would not put that by Goku lol. To busy thinking about food.

The generalist looks outward; he looks for living principles, knowing full well that such principles change, that they develop. It is to the characteristics of change itself that the mentat-generalist must look. There can be no permanent catalogue of such change, no handbook or manual.

I stopped when they put his base strength at 40 tons. His base strength should've been more than that (much more) after the Buu Saga. Originally Posted by Duncanîdaho

I mean i don't mind Superman winning there, that doesn't make it bad for me. I just dislike how they knew tons of shit about superman but missed a ton of key points about Goku and just said things that are not true and made assumptions. Like you didn't see them taking benchmarks of Superman from when he was a kid learning his powers in smallville. Why take them from Goku in the Saiyan saga. Just really biased was my beef. The fight itself actually looked pretty cool though. Originally Posted by Letmesleep

Whether or not the outcome was what we think it should be, I will still say that the fight was entertaining. The dialogue was a bit TFSish (and unless Im mistaken, they actually pulled in the TFS voice actors for it), which made the fight very funny at times (out of hair styles, eh?). The animation was pretty good for a fan-made fight, good enough at least to do it justice. So, bias math aside, it was worth watching

I knew their result was gonna be nonsense way back in the research phase when they tried to say power levels are meaningless and then tried to calculate Goku's speed based on the length of Snake Way and Super Saiyan multipliers.
The one thing that every fan got right though is that this battle will solve nothing.

Video was pretty entertaining, i just feel they didnt do Goku enough justice, like i dont think he would use that pole anymore at SS levels, also why the f does he fly there on nimbus when he couldve just insta transmission like he did later on... i mean they make it pretty clear he can sense him from Kame Island.

I finally watched it. Had to, if nothing else because they used the TFS cast. the problem at the end, after the fight, is they try to justify Goku's strength by using statistics from a time when he wasn't even that strong. You can't take his base power level from the damn Saiyan Saga and use that. He trained far and above after that, to the point he could destroy planets with merely a thought.
Other than him using Nimbus and the Power Pole, they got his personality down pretty good. Except I don't think he would even bother with Kaio-ken, unless they were just trying to demonstrate what it could do.
What I really don't get, is at the end they say the difference between Goku and Superman is that Goku has challenges that he has to overcome, then say "but he didn't here" basically. Goku would find a way, or at the very least, you have to allow him that possibility. Remember he used a Spirit Bomb that contained energy from an entire galaxy to beat Buu. Who's to say he couldn't do it here?

Well he would have to "ask" for the energy and i dont think people would grant him it to beat another "hero" in a semi-friendly match.

Is it just me, Or did Goku seem also out of character as well?
It seemed like he was going for the kill (Which he only does when he is forced to, I.E. Buu and Omega Shenron), Secondly, It seems he was fighting with no regard for the planet at all, Like fighting superman right in the middle of the city, Assuming it isn't an abandoned city, there are people there, And It's not like Superman started attacking first, Goku would've done like he did in the start of the android saga, Lead Superman away from the city to keep innocents out of the conflict, and also when he Kamehameha'd Superman into the sun, Surely Goku knew that he risked destroying the sun (With obvious consequences), A risk he would only take if, like I said, Superman was threatening to destroy the universe like Buu was
Also, Power Pole and Nimbus? He stopped using both of those after Frieza saga, Why on earth would he still use them? Using them would even decrease his efficiency at that point!
Lastly, I don't watch or follow Superman, But wouldn't Superman have been concerned about the planet too? The both of em were fighting with no concern for the planet at all it seems, they even destroyed the earth, when if they were so content on a fight to the death, Goku could have Instant Tranmissioned them both, (Or himself and Superman fly, Either or) To a lifeless planet and have at it
Does this make sense to anyone else or am I crazy?
(Yes I know it is a fan-made hypothetical fight, but personality and characteristics still apply!)

Fun Fact, did you know the sun is an endless amount of energy? Endless, like infinite, as in cannot be depleted! Remember when Cooler said he could destroy the sun? What a moron. Remember when Cell, quote, "Has enough chi to blow away the entire solar system"? Well, silly Cell forgot that the solar system has the sun, I know guys, THE ACTUAL SUN, The same sun that totally ISN'T dwarfed by other stars in the galaxy (which was apparently destroyed by Broly pre-LSS, whatever). I'm glad I watched this riveting, factual video

If anyone wants my full thoughts on the Goku vs Superman thing, I made a blog on screwattack.com to tell them how wrong they are.

Oh, and btw, the sun does not put out infinite energy. It puts out 4.26 metric tons of kinetic energy per second. And it can be destroyed.

She means you take these things way too seriously and back your "facts" up with numbers you pull from your ass. Originally Posted by Laurcus
