Three years later, after lots of training, we can assume Goku has grown stronger in that time. Now, when Vegeta goes SS, he claims to be stronger than Goku (This is just my memory, plus Vegeta always thinks he is better than Goku when he gets stronger).

    19's power-absorption might give him an edge, though I think that would only work if he grabbed one of Frieza's biological parts, which is only about a quarter of his body.

    I'm going to bed now. My favorite character better not be dead in the DBZ story one liners by the time I wake up.

    Or I'll hit all of you with my Genocide Breaker.

    I see. Sounds like fanon to me. Of course it seems like they no longer have the ability, power levels are never mentioned again. At least, on a cursory glance. There is actually evidence that the ability isn't for some reason lost after becoming Super Saiyan. Aside from the Cell thing, think about Goku vs Frieza. One year after their fight, Goku comes back to Earth and he's strong enough to beat Frieza with one finger. Trunks said it himself. He used the same attacks against Goku that killed Frieza almost instantly, and Goku defended himself easily with one finger. Sure, he spent most of that year in training, but he also said that he only had time to learn one technique, the instant transmission. So one could argue that he was just learning that instead of doing actual training.

    Besides, it just seems like a silly assumption to me. It's said that Saiyans have this ability, and there's no mention of them losing it. It also doesn't make sense logically. Super Saiyans are supposed to be the ultimate warriors. That ability is so ridiculously useful, it doesn't really make sense for a Super Saiyan to not have it.

    Indeed. I figure at the power levels that they are at they kinda just forget about the abliities they had pre SSJ. Probably more along the lines of "hey we don't need to do the same things we used to do before we got this power (aside from spirit bomb of course).

    Oh also I found another reference to Saiyans being able to breath in space. In the "Trouble On Arlia" episode, both Vegeta and Nappa are outside of their pods after blowing the planet up and both seem to be just fine without breathing. I know it's been theorized that they are inside a bubble of sorts from their space pods, but consider this: How man different planets did the saiyans originally get sent to? Now, out of those planets, how many of them had oxygen as a main source for breathing? I think it's much more likely to just assume that Saiyans don't need oxygen to breath and are fine just about anywhere.

    I already knew about the Arlia episode, but that's a very very good point about them conquering planets. Most planets don't have breathable atmosphere so that makes perfect sense.

    I just figure that's got to be the most reasonable explanation. Otherwise you'd see them at some point wearing some sort of breathing aparatus. Not to mention all the times during the Frieza saga where they're breathing just fine underwater.

    exactly they all speak perfect japanese/english (well not really) and breath the same air

    Well, other languages are mentioned. Bulma makes a universal translator that allows Captain Ginyu to talk with her as a toad. It's not inconceivable that aliens have similar technology, possible built into their scouters. We also don't know the physiology of the various aliens. It's possible that at least some of them can master new languages instantly. Namekians and the Frieza species also have their own language.

    And lack of breathable atmosphere on planets is also mentioned. When Bulma, Krillin, and Gohan land on Namek Bulma berates them for exiting the ship without space suits on, as she hadn't tested the atmosphere yet.

    It is also possible that most races actually speak the same language. It would kind of make sense if you think about it. Daikaio could have just made the universe that way, and then certain species developed their own languages and dialects over time. It would certainly make sorting out things in the afterlife a lot easier.

    These are all of course just theories though.

    One of Frieza's ancient ancestors (before Chilled) successfully conquered the universe, and made everyone speak his language. Then he died and his empire collapsed.

    Maybe the Saiyan healing ability tops out? So by the end of the series when their power levels are in the billions or trillions that gaining that say max 6 million from the Zenkai, it might as well be gaining 6 because it's insignificant now.

    As for the language thing you can say that with absolutely any TV series that goes into space. There is always a universal translator on the people somewhere, or a common galactic trade language or something like that. Without something like that you can't have cool conversations with badass aliens, it just comes with the territory. No need for their to be logic behind it.

    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.

    Was banned during it. Also, favorite and best show ever, aren't the same thing. That comment hurt my brain so bad I had to comment.

    Goku is Ginyu?! And Ginyu is Goku? This could be bad. Surely Gohan and Krillin will recognize that isn't Goku's voice, personality or "good energy".

    Was just watching some D3 videos. Came across a recent one on the barbarian. At one point (fury resource talk) in this video you can swear they are talking about Saiyans lol. The Barb even goes SSJ5 mode when they start talking about his fury resource and the Battle crys. Made me laugh anyway.

    Well favorite to one person can mean to them, it's the best show ever. Obviously opinions will differ. If that comment hurt your brain, go get yourself checked out, might have a neurological disorder.
