In trunks future after the androids killed everyone, why didn't he just use the dragonballs while piccolo was still alive to just wish goku back after he died from heart D? That would have saved everyone from dieing? Just thought about that!

Kento
Trunks was just a baby when everyone but Gohan died. And nobody thought they'd need Gokou. And by the time they did, they were all dead except Gohan.

ShadeSlayer15
Well why didn't he when he grew up and then why didn't gohan? or den or mr.popo? shit there are even dragonballs that arnt namek ones

juggerman
He couldn't. Dragonballs can't bring back someone that died naturally. He wasn't killed in combat so he couldn't come back.

Where does it say no natural deaths?

Way back in DB I believe.


The basic problem as I understand it is, they come back without any wounds... but he'd still have the heart disease and keel over again.

King piccolo wished himself back to his prime, natural deaths seem easily avoidable. Just wish goku back without his heart virus.

But he was already killed by natural death. I recall them saying in that case the people couldn't be brought back period

I remember them saying it on Namek

NotAllThatEvil
Namek dragonballs function differently than earth balls. They can only bring one back per wish but don't have a use limit.

I'm more annoyed at how come everyone dies in the Boo saga yet they try their hardest to try and stop Boo. Goku gets resurrected without the balls, Vegeta even comes back without the balls. But they are still somewhat in contact with the living.

In Future Trunk's world apparently Goku and the rest gave no fvcks that the world is basically dead.

Im more annoyed Trunks traveled threw time and told everyone everything and tried to prep them for the battle instead of just telling maybe a handful of them, gathered the dragon balls then wished the androids into oblivion.. #20 and #19 might still have been but #17 and #18 wouldn't have and that in itself would of limited cell to being imperfect when he gave chase.

Did they ever say why they didn't Just do that? Sure the Z fighters wouldnt Have trained (well not counting vegeta as he mad dashed to become ssj) and the remaining androids would most likely kill a few but much like before vegeta would school them and be the hero. Goku might die and the biggest threat is the sleeping #16.

They can't wish anything into oblivion because the dragon can't grant a wish that exceeds his creator's power.

ShadeSlayer15
who is his creater

Bro SMASH
Kami (though in the main timeline after Kami merged back with Piccolo, it was later Dende).

ShadeSlayer15
so then your saying that it is within dende or kamis power to bring people back to life?

That's two wishes.

ShadeSlayer15
No it is not, I wish goku back without his heart problems that's one

ShadeSlayer15
if spoken right

Q99
No, Dragonball wishes don't work by clever phrasings. This isn't D&D. You get one thing.

Dragonballs have required multiple wishes to bring someone back to life to a specific location. I.e. wish someone back to life at a destroyed planet and they'll die again due to lack of air, but wishing them back *and* to a safe place required two.

"I wish Piccolo back to life on Earth," was two wishes.

By that logic they could of simply asked Kami to resurrect some of the heroes instead of finding the dragon balls. If Kami had the power to attempt to bring back all those who were killed by frieza and bring them to earth why didn't he just try instead of needing the dragon to do it?

Because his power isn't as flexible- he powers the dragonballs, the dragon can use that power to do whatever.

ShadeSlayer15
kami or dende are do not have that kind of power, so I think you would be incorrect

ShadeSlayer15
Dragon Balls is that their creator must be alive for them to function, otherwise they will be stones for eternity, such as in Future Trunks' alternate timeline, due to Future Piccolo's death;

Yes. Dende has his healing powers, for example. It's not ki, it's not useful *fighting* powers, but there's still a lot of power involved.
