No we don't.
Edit: Alright! So I can't do quotes! ;(
It took me a long time to figure out - 'cause I'm stupid - but we have a quote button. It does everything for you, and makes life a bit easier.
I imagine you're trying to create your own quote template like I used to do.
Believe me, it's a waste of time. Use the button.
Question. - Super Buu - 11-02-2006
EMO (Electronic Mainframe Overdrive) Upgrade FTW!
But yeah, I think Rad's hair should just grow a little in SSJ3, as opposed to the 'whole lot' for Goku, if at all (then have the thick wavy spikes and no eyebrows to differentiate). For the same reasons as Kibbles said - maybe 'cause Goku is bred as a low-level, average soldier, his body actually has to transform in order to contain the power, whereas someone who already has the right build wouldn't have to so much. Doesn't make all that much sense since Rad and Kak are brothers, but hell ... maybe the older brother got all the good 'fighter' genes.

Rad's hair wouldn't grow because the whol growing of hair in Goku's case was probably his body adding new mass to contain the enormas amount of energy that Goku was out putting.
According to that, though, Rad's hair would still grow. His body is accustomed to his current mass, so he would need to add on to it for the same reason Goku did.
Not necessarily. It could have simply meant that Raditsu potential to hold power was higher than Goku's because he had the long hair, where Goku needed to add muscle mass as well as hair, Raditsu might have been okay since he had more mass to distribute through his body.
So by that logic, Nappa has about as much potential as a bag of dead gerbils.
Interesting theory, but I doubt it.
No it doesn't mean that. Nappa has considerably more mass than Goku, Vegeta, and even Raditsu even though he's bald. And as Goku showed he can always change himself to hold more energy.
This is all temporary though, as their body gets used to holding so much energy they likely don't need to obtain as much mass. Take a look at Goku during the Saiyajin Saga. His body was bulking up to very large proportions just using KaioKen, but during the Namek Saga he is capable of using considerably more energy without physical damage or a need to bulk up- except with SSJ.
Question. - Super Buu - 11-02-2006
Quote:Originally posted by KollifumI actually think it's highly plausible. I mean, one of the major, if not the biggest theme of DBZ is that hard work can overcome birth. Look at the proof. The main character was born with an 'average' powerlevel, nothing special. When Raditz first comes along, Goku is shit by comparison. But he keeps at it, and eventually overcomes royalty, and becomes like the strongest saiyan, and one of the strongest entities, to ever exist. So it's not like blood is the deciding factor in who lives and dies - it just gives you an edge, albeit one which can be overcome with effort.

The two people who can reach SSJ2 have base power levels times four of any new joinee.
Good point, but there's 3.
Edit: A SSJ3 Nappa would look like Kane from WWE.
Question. - Super Buu - 11-02-2006
Quote:Originally posted by KollifumPretty much. All 'MARTIAL ARTSMAN GETTING PROGESSIVELY MORE RIDICULOUSLY POWERFUL-esque animes pretty much follow that premise, and Naruto is no exception.
So basically the plot of DBZ is the same as Rock Lee's outlook on life. Or some other nerdy comparison.
And if potential is limited, how come Goku, a low-level soldier, becomes one of the most powerful being in the universe, outdoing Vegeta who's a friggin' pedigree warrior at every turn? :p And Bardock is able to change his ways and become good. It's basically saying that you're not limited by your birth. In the real world, of course, that's a crock of shit, but we're talking about a world where your bodily strength can continue to escalate exponentially with no limits whatsoever, as long as you continue training.

...dude...I already said that, in much greater detail. Read plz.
Looks like I skipped your post, crucify me.
Question. - Hellfighter 17 - 11-02-2006
Actually, mystic merely "said" that any power-up Gohan may have won't be as effective as mystic, but his base can still grow by much, much more.
Question. - Kaden - 11-02-2006
Just to save Kakarot the trouble:
It was stated multiple times that Goku possessed unlimited potential.
Question. - Super Buu - 11-02-2006
Yeah, but they also said they unlocked Gohan's potential when he went to Guru. And when he first went SSJ2. It's more likely that there is no limit to his potential, he's only limited by the power of the person/process unlocking it. This is all speculation, but it would fit the theme of the series. Goku did, after all, say that there were probably even more Super Saiyan transformations.
Question. - Kaden - 11-02-2006
Gohan had a finite limit to his potential, that's why he was able to be... uh... Mystified. Mysticified? Mysticied?
Anyway, and that's why Goku was never... a mystic. Old Kai would have been sitting there forever because Goku's potential would never be tapped.

Actually, there are three SSj2, one UNS, no transformation 5's, one SKK, and 3 R.A.G.E. upgrades.
So out of 130 members, 8 can reach the 40x power up. That's like...6.15 % of the forum's population, leaving 93.85% without that level of power . Just so you all know.
There are 73 members, not 130.
