In fact, this isn't much hard to understand if we see that freeza 1 was at 530 000, freeza 2 over 1 million (both stated) and yet base goku was even with freeza 4 (with 2 extra transformations) and after using kaioken20x (multiplies his power by a factor of 20) and kamehame he couldn't kill a freeza using 50% of his power. Anyway, yeah, in fact if you actually talk with some of the best DBZ experts around (in decent forums) you will see that according to this the escalation of power, cell was already in the billions (note that piccolo was 329 when blasted a moon with a regular blast, and kame blasted the moon with probably less power seing that he was 139 by the begining of DBZ)

Ah, another thing, these are comics, so even if cell wasn't this widely stronger it wouldn't matter because the comics create an alternative reality, and in this one cell has enough energy to blow the entire solar system. Yet, it actually follows common sense.

So? What's the point here besides the fact that kid boo had enough power to blow the earth?

The point here is, it was stated and nothing proves otherwise. Besides, were talking about a guy whose power was on the level from a ssj2 gohan, which was MUCH stronger then anything we saw before by the cell games (see how ssj goku surpass by miles anything we see before too).

I am not downplaying super-man or something, I am just saying that if super-man's power comes from the sun and if goku has enough energy to blast the sun, then maybe goku has more energy then super-man.

So? I think you are confusing realities. In dragon ball reality, even though characters can blast the hell of a planet, they can still be hurt by trivial stuff like throwing a rock on his head. Yet, don't forget that dragon ball always had more of a comic side that other comics has not.

By the way, weren't we suppose to stop using non-canon?

Um....there wasn't any alternate reality in DBZ when Cell fought the Z warriors. The fact that Cell, and Gohan's power combined did little much of nothing to the solar system has to mean something.

It means that Gokou nor Vegeta who were more powerful than Cell didn't have the power, combined, to stop a blast from Buu that ONLY destroyed Earth and nothing more. Yet we have to believe Gohan blocked a stronger blast when he was weaker than Gokou and Vegeta? Right.

No it was stated and nothing proves it to be the least bit true. Just because Batman says he can take out every hero on DC Earth if they went rouge doesn't make it a fact since they would more then likely kill him before he even realized they turned evil.

Ya know something....I'd take Superman's durabilty over that of the sun any day of the week. Just because you can destroy the sun doesn't mean you can destroy Supes with the same blast. Lets not forget he'd also have to hit a bloodlusted Superman with the blast, and he'd have to survive long enough to charge a blast like that. And nobody is doubting Gokou has more energy than Superman but while the bigger the ki in the DB world means you're stronger it doesn't in DC. Heck if Gokou came to Earth and looked for the biggest ki I'd think Batman would have a bigger one that Superman but that's just what I think.

The fact that Gokou could be hurt by a rock or punches from weaker being also doesn't help that he'd win against Superman who is a lot stronger, and faster than anybody in the series.

Then read it again. They were fighting each other the whole time.

isn't ki a life force? spiritual energy?

It's not the same for every universe. Humans in DC can't train and get DBZ powers.

yeah but theres also a scan where he couldnt reach her and time and she caught her after shed been shot,

Considering that she's alive and unharmed, that must not have been canon (or an illusion or some such thing)

also (just a question) does bloodlust mean the character are fighting simply to kill and not themselves?

It means they are fighting at their full capacity with intent to kill.

goku can at least move above the speed of sound most of supermans enemies didnt have super sppeed and they were able to pull off moves, especially one where it takes him miliseconds for his finger to touch his head.

You got milliseconds from where, again? Show your math.

Actually the beams should be easier to see than the ki balls since they are connected to the person. I'd also think the beams would travel slower. Not sure why I've always pictured it that way. Maybe because of the rapid firing of ki balls.

movement, still not above light (I know he can travel, I dont know baou fight

He's reacted at FTL speed multiple times. Stop ignoring the evidence.

doesn't one of the scans have gokus travel speed at light speed?

No, unless you're talking about that photoshopped one.

and gotenks was just showing off, I dont believe he was going at his top speed (but it did create streaks across the world like weh nsuperman went to save lois after she'd been shot, would those streaks of light illustrate the breaking of the light barrier?)

Um, no.... that has no basics in physics whatsoever.

Those were ki trails. You know, the things that everyone in DBZ leaves behind when they are flying?

Haven't goku sent cooler from the earth to the sun in less then 30 seconds?

Not canon.

Is or isn't true that superman's power comes from our red sun?

😆

Yet super perfect cell had the power to not only blow the sun also the entire solar system.

Or so he claimed. Considering his attack only made a small crater in the ground, it's pretty obvious he was bluffing. Not to mention Superman has taken actual solar system and even galaxy destroying attacks and survived.

Or, and by the way, ssj4 actually beat a guy hotter then sun himself (Nova Sheron)?

Common plasma torches are "hotter than the sun". It's irrelevant since they don't have as much energy.

Not to mention GT is non - canon.

I am not saying that goku will beat super-man, neither the other way around. Just rised this questions in order to make people think a bit.

Then you should have done some research first.

I know what canon is, you don't need to tell me. But i also though anime was included in this discussion.

The anime is simply an adaptation of the canon manga (original source). The movies are even less canon as they don't fit into the timeline at all.

Ok, yellow, whatever, pointless, the fundamental is, his power comes from our sun. And yes, cell HAS the power to blast the sun. Have you any proof that says otherwise and this was stated?

If you really think this could destroy the sun, you're delusional

Not to mention Cell is known to bluff and overrate himself.

besides, i don't even see what's the big deal about it, if master kame and piccolo by the begining of DBZ can blast the moon or vegeta in the sayan saga could blast the earth, i don't know what's the big deal about someone thousands and thousands times stronger to be able to blast the sun.

First of all, you have no evidence that they are "thousands of times stronger".

Second of all, Vegeta didn't destroy the earth in the Saiyan saga. He just claimed he could (and he was completely freaking out at the time and not exactly in his right mind).

Third of all, you have no idea of the energies involved in this.

Destroying the sun would take approximately a billion times as much power as destroying the earth. Destroying the entire solar system would take so much more power that I'd have to express it in scientific notation.

Go look up Gravitational Binding Energy and the Inverse - Square Law.

You and canon. FINE, whatever, I will use only manga in this discussion. But my point here is, nobody said in the begining that GT wasn't included... Because ssj4 goku is something really comiscally powerful.

Um, no he's not. He has hardly any impressive feats at all.

Actually, yeah. Did you know that Toryama himself, through the Dainzenshu, stated that ssj goku and frieza were already over 100 millions when they fought? In fact, this isn't much hard to understand if we see that freeza 1 was at 530 000, freeza 2 over 1 million (both stated) and yet base goku was even with freeza 4 (with 2 extra transformations) and after using kaioken20x (multiplies his power by a factor of 20) and kamehame he couldn't kill a freeza using 50% of his power

Power levels are not consistent and meaningless for extrapolation and cross - universe comparisons. Based on Roshi's PL and destroying the moon, the farmer that Raditz killed (who had a PL of 5) would have had more power than a nuclear arsenal.

Anyway, yeah, in fact if you actually talk with some of the best DBZ experts around (in decent forums) you will see that according to this the escalation of power, cell was already in the billions

Appeal to (anonymous) authority fallacy. No power levels were ever stated after the Frieza saga (except Trunks having a PL of 5 when he was suppressing his power).

(note that piccolo was 329 when blasted a moon with a regular blast, and kame blasted the moon with probably less power seing that he was 139 by the begining of DBZ)

Note that it takes 1800 times more energy to destroy the earth tha the moon, and a billion times more energy to destroy the sun.

Ah, another thing, these are comics, so even if cell wasn't this widely stronger it wouldn't matter because the comics create an alternative reality, and in this one cell has enough energy to blow the entire solar system. Yet, it actually follows common sense.

....what?

So? What's the point here besides the fact that kid boo had enough power to blow the earth?

The point is that Goku and Vegeta (who were both stronger than Cell at that time) could have easily blocked his blast if Cell had been that powerful (but they couldn't).

The point here is, it was stated and nothing proves otherwise.

Again

No one in DBZ ever demonstrated that kind of power. It's a hyperbole statement.

Besides, were talking about a guy whose power was on the level from a ssj2 gohan, which was MUCH stronger then anything we saw before by the cell games (see how ssj goku surpass by miles anything we see before too).

Unless you can quantify how much stronger, that means nothing.

I am not downplaying super-man or something, I am just saying that if super-man's power comes from the sun and if goku has enough energy to blast the sun, then maybe goku has more energy then super-man.

First of all, it's Superman. Spider-man has a hyphen, Superman doesn't.

Second of all, no one in DBZ ever destroyed a sun.

Third of all, Superman has done things that required way more power than the entire sun has. Considering that only a tiny amount of the sun's energy can hit his body at any one time, it's pretty obvious that his powers don't work by simple electromagnetic conversion.

So? I think you are confusing realities. In dragon ball reality, even though characters can blast the hell of a planet, they can still be hurt by trivial stuff like throwing a rock on his head.

So you just accept this absurdity and don't try to rationalize it? Non - scientific mindset unsuited for debate.

By the way, weren't we suppose to stop using non-canon?

You brought it up.

It's not the same for every universe. Humans in DC can't train and get DBZ powers.

I probably heard wrong from someone, they said karate kid used ki

Well he does know every martial art style extant in the 31st century, so I suppose it's possible, but that doesn't make it the same as DBZ ki

Other than the fact the attack did little more than scar the earth and was nowhere near the size of it, let alone the size of the solar system?

Plus there's all the times when something was 'stated':

Let's see...
Freeza: I'll rip you to shreds
Freeza: You'll never beat me!
Freeza: I'm the strongest in the universe.
Vegeta: I'm the strongest in the universe.
Baata: I'm the fastest in the universe.
Ginyu: No one's stronger than me, except for freeza.
Piccolo: I've done it - no matter how strong he is, it doesn't matter, I just obtained ULTIMATE POWER.
Freeza(to trunks): For us to get rid of a piece of trash like you is a piece of cake.
King Cold (about Trunks): Freeza! You did it. He was no match for us.
Kind Cold(also to Trunks): You definitely can't beat me!
Vegeta(to 16, 17, and 18): I'm going to grind you to bits!
17: There can't be anyone in this world strong enough to fight me.
Cell: When I achieve my perfect form, I will be the most powerful being imaginable!
17: I'm the ultimate Warrior.
Cell: I'm impossible to kill
Cell: No one can stand against me!
Cell: If I had my perfect form, I'd be perfect in every way! I wouldn't lose to anyone!
Cell(to Gohan): Even if you lived for a hundred years, you'd never be able to kill me.
Cell(to Gohan): You can't possibly believe you could beat me.
Cell(to Gohan): There's no way I can lose to you!
Cell(to Gohan): I won't let you win!
Cell: I've gathered enough ki not only to destroy the planet, but the whole solar system!
Cell: I'm going to finish you now.
Pipi: Babi-di is on the bottom, but you'll have to get through me. You'll die here.
Dabura: If you use Yakon, they'll be defeated!
Dabura: Yakon should be strong enough to beat them easily!
Dabura: I'll finish them off.
Dabura: No one can beat me with strength.
Buu: No one could be stronger than I!
Buu: They're no match for me! Even if they Fuse!
Buu: Super Vegetto? So what?
Buu: Do you actually think you have a chance?
Buu: I won't lose to someone like you!
Buu: Haha! You're helpless.

It was stated, which means Goku died the first time someone said they'd beat him... oh wait...

So no more circular reasoning BS. YOU have yet to prove that he did.

He's not exactly running light speed in that scan but he does later on. But that is Flash saying the power of Superman's muscles break the laws of physics and gravity as they are running over two thousand miles per second.

..thats a lot sloer than light speed, it's still very fast though

by the way do you think his mach up would be better if it was animated superman (like from superman doomsday) vs anime goku

I know thats why I said he wasn't going light speed. A bit later Flash outruns heat vision which is light speed and Superman is still close behind while running.

I think cartoon Supes would loose hardcore. He was never that powerful. Though I think if Supes got a hit on Gokou with all his strength like he did against Darkseid he may have a chance but he doesn't have the speed advantage or the durability. Doomsday Superman didn't show much in the way of speed either.

Good thing this isn't cartoon supes then, huh?

no check out superman doomsday, thats one of the strongest cartoon supermen,

also in his fight with the doomsday clones, he appears an reappears doding a laser visions blast with ease, and travels to and from the atmosphere extremely fast

I have seen Superman: Doomsday. But he didn't use any speed really except for his suicide bomb that killed him. I'm sure Gokou can create a blast stronger than that without even resorting to the kamehameha.

...well what about all of the animated supermen combined in terms of strength superman has it...even thoug hthe shockwaves are about equal..but yeah youre probably right

I think Superman from Superman: Doomsday would be a better match considering he was pretty tough and didn't he mention something about how he held a dwarf star? Anyway Supes from Justice League Unlimited is too weak. I don't even want to mention Superman from Superfriends

superman from superman doomsday seem to be equal in strength and durability goku...goku would probably win though if goku was as strong as people think he is this would be a much better fight

See I think Superman from JLU and even more so Superman😄oomsday has the strength advantage but Gokou can use his ki to put out a lot more damage that what hurt Superman in JLU and what killed Superman in Superman😄oomsday. Superman doesn't have the speed in the cartoon which is why I don't think he'd win. If he had the speed advantage I'd go with animated Superman cause of the strength advantage.

Superman from the JLU/SD movie would not last a minute agaisn't Goku. In regards to speed,strength,durability and sheer overall power those incarnations of Supes would be oneshotted....Supeman couldn't even destroy a city lol. In fact those versions of Superman were at ebst mid-Meta while Goku is sitting at Mid-Herald.

Animated Superman is stronger than Goku but thats about it.

i don't even know about that, animated superman has more strength feats but those feats could easily be duplicated by Goku. Goku at his peak is sitting above 100 class in strength, he just never had any real reason to display it.

You assume Gokou could do any of cartoon Superman's strength feats. But the thing is that Gokou is an unknown when it comes to his strength level. People believe he's over 100 tons sure but there is nothing to say for sure. And there is also Superman's strength is unknown. The only time he ever went full power is that one punch to Darkseid at the end of JLU. He said that he always held back because the world was like cardboard to him and he didn't want to break anything. Both are really unknown but the fact that you even said Superman has the better strength feats he wins that battle. Speed he looses and Durablity it really depends. Energy would go to Gokou while Physical would probably go to Superman. The only other strength feat Gokou has besides at the start of the Buu saga is in GT. He lifted a building in ssj4 pretty easily and then had to struggle to lift..whatever he lifted under the city. I don't even remember much of what Superman has done in TAS/JL/U it's been so long.

It's fair to assume Goku is above 100 class in stength (he easily lifted 40 tons with one hand in SSJ) and we already know a SSJ transformation is a tremendous amp in speed/strength/durabilty and anergy output. The exact limits to Goku's power will never really be known while JLU Superman had obvious limitations on his power. Like I mentioned before, any strength feat of Supes could easily be duplicated by Goku. Remember the shockwaves from Superman hardly did any damage to the surroundings while Goku's shockwaves often erupted in blinding lights that literally rocked the ground he was fighting on (plus if u dont believe hes above 100 class in strength hes at the very least a 100 class).

As far as durability is concerned, Goku has endured energy blast capable of leveling entire cites while JLU Supes was knocked out cold by the watch tower laser that only destroyed a small sector of a city. Speed isnt a contest since Goku's combat/travelling speeds are literally teleportation-like while Supes couldnt even speedblitz clayface lol. Overall JLU supes was mid-meta while goku is mid-herald...its not even a contest guys.
