    Derp, I missed your post earlier.
    Oh it was being looked over by mods or some such I think so it didn't appear when I actually posted it.

    What you've all said makes as much sense as anything.

    Kind of surprised you don't have a DB/Z/GT avatar Laurcus since you seem to like the show so much, even saw you post in that US navy thread about how Goku would win.

    Not wanting to go off on too much of a tangent what is your avatar? When I first saw it I thought it was Doctor Doom, although on much closer inspection these days I can't imagine it is.

    Also, to say something DB related, although not massively related to anything recently discussed I really did dislike how they brought back Frieza to have him get effortlessly smashed by Trunks, I get that they were trying to establish him and show him off and stuff but I really feel like they made what was easily the most powerful enemy in the series up till now look like a joke, which they further told at least two more times when Frieza showed up, at least once with Cell to be humiliated for no real reason.

    Also, talking about transformations some pages back (albeit Saiyan transformations) how do you think Frieza's kind get theirs? Do they all know say 1, 2 and 3? Cooler made out that he discovered the 5th so perhaps they gain them through training or something? King Cold never expressly stated (and nothing canon ever has?) that he could go beyond his second form so what do you all think?

    My avatar is Nero Angelo from the original Devil May Cry. I originally put him down as my avatar because, well, he's just a beast. Observe. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZYfb...eature=related

    One of the most difficult bosses, ever. I think the only boss that's ever given me more issues was Theseus in God of War 2 on Titan mode. But anywho, the avatar just kind of grew on me. DMC is my favorite series of games, and I like the fact that I can represent both my favorite anime and my favorite game series in my profile. I've thought about changing it a few times, but meh, I don't really want to. I already have my sig devoted to DBZ.

    As for your DBZ question, not much is known about the Frieza-species. The only bit of data we really have on them, is they run the Planet Trade Organization, and they might be the Arcosians mentioned by King Kai. Hell, we don't even know if they age. For all we know, Frieza may have been alive when his ancestor Lord Chilled was killed. I would pay money to know more about them though.

    Precisely.

    I've watched the episode of GT when Goku is fighting Baby in Great Ape form ...... Grand Kaioshin said that he wasn't able to control himself due to suspending his training in the middle .....

    Which would mean that Vegeta wasn't anything special for controling his Great Ape form, it just mean that he trained to control it. Still, it's GT ..... I have mixed feelings about this.

    ---------- Post added 2012-04-17 at 11:18 AM ----------

    Ok, I have some crazy theory about the Saiyan tails ..... Based on original series, DBZ and GT episodes.

    What if they grow back when they train using their body strength ?

    I mean, after they learn how to control their Ki/Chi (depends on translation, I'm used to write it as Ki like in subtitles I've seen) they're training only using Ki, which is used to amplify their speed and power of attacks. They completely ignore their body strength, which is shown in DBZ episodes, when Vegeta lowers his Ki so that Krilin can hurt him.

    In GT episodes, when Grand Kaioshin was training Goku for a fight with Baby, he told him to grind him Coffee using that ridiculously large grinder. Goku's tail started growing back at that point.
    In original Dragonball, Goku's tail kept growing back after he's done some training (back when he didn't know how to control his Ki).
    In DBZ, when Gohan was young and didn't know how to control his Ki, his tail grew back during the fight with Vegeta, but earlier he's been training with Piccolo.
