Tbh, those PLs are much higher than I would have ever theorized.

Regarding the simpliclity: it's the Kaio Ken and the uncertainty of the multpliers being consistant, across the board, at every SSJ transformation.

In all fairness, all Vegeta said is that SSJ2 Goku was "stronger than Gohan was when he fought Cell." This could mean that Goku was a lot stronger than Cell-era Gohan, or it could mean that he was only a bit more powerful. Either way, it still doesn't change the fact that Goku's SSJ2 PL wasn't above 12b-- and when he battled Majin Vegeta it would have logically been much less, given that they battled several years before the events of BoG.

Well, to be more fair, Vegeta would not have made that statement (in that way) if there was very little difference between cell-era Gohan and Goku's current form. To be more realistic, Goku would have to be significantly stronger to justify making that statement.

He's never used a kaioken as anything but a base Saiyan in canon, but we can accurately factor that in as well: as a base Saiyan, Goku's PL cannot be more than 2.4b(120m*20x kaioken.)

The multipliers *should* be consistent for at least an initial baseline. Then you have to consider variables like the power differential between a standard/n00b SSJ, an ASSJ, and a FPSSJ-- though by the Buu-era, most of the noteworthy Saiyans were FPSSJ's anyway(that seems to be a prerequisite for becoming a SSJ2.) What's odd, though, is that the Daizehshuu doesn't comment on a FPSSJ giving a base Saiyan more than a 50x boost-- it just comments on the stamina/endurance benefits associated with the form... So take that for what it's worth. /shrug

Thankfully, no other level of SSJ has 'tiers' like that, as far as we know(thank God.)

Vegeta simply noted that Buu-era SSJ2 Goku>Cell-era SSJ2 Gohan. Given the ambiguity of that statement, it's hard impossible to know exactly how much of an increase he sensed.

😂

I want Vegeta to be like the most badass SSJ2 ever--and he pretty much is. I really don't want him to reach SSJ3. That should stay with Goku as a defining/unique transformation just like Gohan being Mystic. So I'd like him to just be able to contend with people above his tier because of mastery over his form over years, or give him his own unique transformation.

I mean Jesus how many FKN prolonged, to the point of it almost being torture, beatings did Vegeta get after becoming SSJ2? Sucks when Zenkai boosts stop being integral to the plot.

That then puts him well above Frieza by many times....I suppose Bills would know about Kaio Ken since it is a Kai's thing/technique. He would assume that a x2 or x3 would be the limit (IIRC, King Kai said not to take it above a x2 or x3) for Goku and thus conclude that that was probably not enough.

They don't seem to be throughout the entire series.

Yeah, that's kind of the stuff I'm talking about but it is not everything. It seems there is quite a bit of difference between an "at-will" SSJ and a FPSSJ.

Based on the context and the author's style, I'll go with significanty stronger and not just fractionally stronger.

Here's what should have happened in the HBTC during the Cell Saga:

Vegeta, Goku, and Dende should have all 3 entered the HBTC.

Vegeta and Goku would continually shoot eachother, clean through. Dende then heals them. Zankai gives them a massive boost.

Dende would need to bring a massive amount of senzu beans and/or food to constantly recover. Too much healing exhausts him...at least when he was a kid.

But, yes, that would have been the best path, possible. If they could have pulled that off, they would have been so much more absurdly powerful than even Super-Perfect-Cell, that it would have been hilarious.

In fact, that's what the series should be about. Two Saiyans who caught on to this trick and found a healer-type.

I was thinking this ever since Vegeta did it on Namek. Why the hell wouldn't they give this a shot? Pride? Vegeta already used it and he's the most prideful by far.

I doubt Bill's was taking the kaioken multiplier into account, tbh. However, if he was, then base Goku was far weaker than I thought.

The multipliers themselves are consistent(that was one of the Daizehshuu's main purposes.) That said, we know that a SSJ is 50x>base. We know a SSJ2 is 2x>SSJ. We know a SSJ3 is 4x>SSJ2. What we don't know is how a FPSSJ factors into the equation. Although you'd think that if a FPSSJ were intended to increase a base Saiyan's power by more than 50x, the Daizenshuu would have specified such. In fact, the Daizenshuu's lack of specification, despite coining the title "full power Super Saiyan" in the first place, could indicate that a FPSSJ may still be 50x>base, but has no stamina/endurance drawbacks, as a n00b SSJ and ASSJ does. /shrug

On that note, the Daizenshuu also states that a Potara fusion is more like multiplication, rather than addition. ie. Vegito's PL would have been equivalent to multiplying SSJ2 Goku's PL by SSJ2 Vegeta's PL. If that holds true, then Vegito's PL=3.6e+19(assuming Goku/Vegeta each had a PL around 6b.) This is unreal. Even more unbelievable is that V-Jump flat-out states that Bills>>any other being in the history of Z. ie. Bills>Vegito. Just goes to show you(numerically) how far above SSJ3 Goku Bills truly was. Anyway, sorry about the OT rant. 😛

That is your opinion, and you are entitled to it.

Its hard to believe that base Saiyans are below Freeza :/

Also does this mean that on the same SS level Vegeta is over 4x Goku's PL?

I always felt Vegeta was the more powerful noob SSJ, but not 4x.

Still that feeling can just be my bias lol.

I don't think SSJ2 Goku was significantly stronger than Teen SSJ2 Gohan.

Vegeta's comment almost seemed like a back handed compliment. "Well at least you finally cleared that level" type of comment.

I think he was stronger. It may have been a back handed comment, but I think he was saying the truth. We just don't know how much stronger.

ASSJ Vegeta much more absurdly powerful than Semi-Perfect Cell (SPC) that SPC could do nothing to harm Vegeta.

We didn't see that much of a power difference since Goku fought some of the Ginyu Force and tooled them. Goku's base was 90k, then. Burter's was around 60k. But Goku completely tooled them. The difference was 1.5x.

On second thought, you might be right. If Vegeta was 1.5x stronger than base-form SSJ, that would be enough to tool SPC like Goku did to the Ginyu Force. That would also mean that Perfect Cell and Super Perfect Cell fell in a power range that was somewhere between 1.5x and 2x base SSJ...generally. But that would also indicate that his SPC to PC forms would have been closer to double that 1.5.x his SPC power because his power would have been somewhere between 1.5x and 1x stronger than a SSJ...but probably closer to 1x than 1.5x. However, he seemed to tool the Androids just as much as Vegeta tooled him?

But this all falls to mess when you consider that the SSJ state has different base powerlevel starting points throwing this whole thing out of wack. If the power multipliers are consistant, then the inconsistency is both the writing and the individual's own base powerlevels.

You could be correct, there. What Goku and Gohan did was vastly increase their base power-level, imo. The mode also makes their ASSJ state get all the benefits of the SSJ state but none of the drawbacks, as you stated. So the point of that state would be two-fold (no pun intended): increasing their base powerlevel while also reducing the massive drain that the SSJ state puts on the body. That would make sense.

But then that does not match up well with the ASSJ state which adds muscle so it is actually increasing by a multiplier unlike the FPSSJ state. Same holds true with the USSJ state: it further increases the powerlevel but does not alter the base power level. So, I think that would explain the FPSSJ state still be a 50x multiplier but the ASSJ and USSJ states adding their own little brand of multiplier (but a dead-end avenue for continual improvement like Vegeta figured out).

I would tend to think that an assessment like that would be false (the V-Jump implications, not necessarily your opinion on it (which I ask for a little bit later). To me, I would interpret that to be something like "add their power levels together and multiply it by X+base multiplier for Potara Earring Fusion. X is determined by how much of a rival the two are (as stated by the old Grand Supreme Ultra Super Kai...yes, I got carried away with the honorrifics there, for a moment).

So we could assume it would be closer to something like this:

Goku's PL: 7b
Vegeta's PL: 3.5b
Rival Multiplier: 1x
Base Mulitiplier: 3x

(6b+3.5b)(3+.5) = 38b

Which would make more sense.

Here's why.

Assuming SSJ3 Gotenks is stronger than SSJ3 Goku but not hugely more powerful:

SSJ3: 10b
Mystic Gohan: 14b
Evil Buu: 5b

Altogether: 29b

29b<38b

That seems about right.

Again, those numbers are arbitrary but I assume the ratios in powerlevels is about the same so we could adjust those power levels to anything we wanted as long as the ratios were around the same.

I am interested in your speculation regarding those numbers I threw out. What are you own estimates?

That goes for anyone that wants to speculate: I am interested in everyone's opinion. 😄

I think it's a bit more than just "the same" or "just a bit stronger" than Cell-Games SSJ2 Gohan.

Here is why:

My assumption was that Vegeta obtained SSJ2 during the time-skip after the cell games. He attained a power-level roughly equal to Gohan's SSJ2.

However, when he saw Goku put out tons of power to kill Yakon, Vegeta notes that he could tell Goku got something more in that 7 years than he (Vegeta) did so he opted for the Majin-amp that he so Spopovich get from the Majin status to bridge that gap (holy shizer, long sentence). We know from Mr. Satan's commentary on Spopovich that Spopovich was fodder (but still a strong human) and then became a massive threat to even someone like Videl. But I will note that part of Spopovich's amp was this weird recovery ability. Videl's stamina wore out and she got beaten by him.

So, for me, that indicates that Goku's SSJ2 state was significantly stronger than Gohan's SSJ2 state. Not necessarily 2x stronger but somewhere between 1x and 2x.

As it pertains to this discussion, it would seem we both agree that FPSSJ Goku is 50x> base-level Goku. If that is in fact the case(and I believe it is), then we can at least come up with fairly accurate PL approximations for his various SSJ transformations. We can do this because we know 120m is our absolute high-end, where his base form is concerned.

[b]I am interested in your speculation regarding those numbers I threw out. What are you own estimates?[/B]

Based on what we know, SSJ3 Gotenks was substantially more powerful than SSJ3 Goku. Why? Because as made evident during their battle, SSJ3 Gotenks~Super Buu-- Gotenks may have been a little weaker, but they were pretty close. Conversely, Goku(who can very accurately sense ki) flat-out stated that Super Buu was vastly more powerful than himself. And finally, we know Mystic Gohan was far stronger than any of the aforementioned, given the casual nature in which he trounced Super Buu.
ie. Mystic Gohan>>Super Buu~/>SSJ3 Gotenks>>SSJ3 Goku.

We know Goku's max PL as a SSJ3 several years after the Buu saga couldn't have been more than 48b. So let's assume he was around 40b during the Buu saga(just throwing a random number out there.)

If SSJ3 Goku=40b, I'd have Super Buu at 43b, SSJ3 Gotenks at 42.5b, and Mystic Gohan at no less than 46b... And since Piccolo was also part of the equation, we'll put him at 500m.

When we're dealing with power levels in the tens-of-billions, it's easy to forget that even a power difference of 1 million is massive-- it's essentially the difference between an average earthling and 2nd form Frieza. 😱

Anyhow, assuming the power of the beings Buu successfully absorbed were added to his own:
Super Buu+SSJ3 Gotenks+Piccolo=Buutenks=86b
Super Buu+Mystic Gohan+Piccolo=Buuhan=89.5b(Gotenks' PL cannot be counted here, because the fusion was no longer active within Buu.)

Anyway, if SSJ3 Goku's PL was 40b, it means his SSJ2 PL would have been 10b(40b/4.) Even if SSJ2 Vegeta's PL was identical to Goku's(which it almost certainly wasn't, given that he needed the Majin amp just to contend equally with Goku), Vegito would only possess a PL of 20b if their powers were simply added together-- moreover, that figure would have to be multiplied several times over by the 'x factors' you mentioned, just to approach Buuhan's level. However, given the obvious fact that Vegito's power was several orders of magnitude beyond that of Buuhan, I'd be more inclined to lean toward the guidebook's explanation(posted above) of blanket multiplication rather than simple addition.

I'm assuming that the better suited the 'hosts' are, the more power the fusion receives-- which might mean that the 'hosts' powers are only multiplied if they are the perfect fusion partners(which Goku and Vegeta were touted as by Old Kai.) I mean, clearly every Potara fusion doesn't receive that much of an amp-- Kibitoshin is a prime example: even if Supreme Kai and Kibito only possessed individual power levels of 1m, their fusion would come out with a PL of 1 TRILLION if powers were always multiplied. /shrug

Is this filmed dubbed already?

If yes to the above where can I view it?

If no to the above when shall it be dubbed?

It's not dubbed, just subtitled.

Hard to say when it will be officially english-dubbed, given all the legal BS associated with FUNimation acquiring the rights, etc. Although I suspect that an english-dub would still be years away, IF it is dubbed at all.

This is a lot of stuff to digest. I think this type of discussion needs to happen in a room where you get a dry erase board (or one of those digital marking boards) and you step everyone through your logic.

I'd want to get together a group of about 5-10 people and just go down each of our logic to get it right.

To go down your power levels.

Goku SSJ3 40b...

Okay, divide that by 4: 10b SSJ2

Divide that by 2: 5b

Divide that by 50: .1b or 100 million. Damn, son, that's a pretty good number you've selected for Goku. That worked out really well.

Bills said "probably"(about the Frieza thing) indicating that Goku wasn't massively weaker, just weak enough that it seems improbable that he could defeat Frieza. I can't speculate very much so I'd just conclude that Goku's base is 100m like you've suggested. That's enough of a gap that Frieza would beat him almost every time and Goku might get a win every now and again.

So, we agree on 100m for base Goku. That's a damn good number and very closely matches up with the math. Hooray!

Now I just need to think through the other characters like you have and then arrive at an estimate to see if ours match up.

Damn, we should hold a mother ****in' convention on this shit. I think a lot of people could benefit from our discussion.

Speaking of which, is Goku still being voiced by a woman?

Should probably watch this movie in order to join in on your conversation.

Agreed. Tbh, I'd even be willing to put Goku's base PL a little higher if need be--between 110m-115m, but a difference of 15m is ultimately inconsequential when were dealing with numbers of this magnitude. So I'd say 100m is a good approximation for his base.

I'd bet our estimates are close enough. The values I mentioned seem logical enough based on the info we have.

Haha, that would be awesome. I've waited YEARS to debate PLs in depth.

I like when people try to put so much effort in power levels post namek when Toryama clearly didn't care about them plot wise.

Anyway, regardless of power levels and multipliers, what the movie seems to establish is:

1) Base goku, and base sayans for that matter, still seem weaker then a full power frieza. For a small margin probably, but that seems the case. And it's not like this is such a big deal.

2) At this time, 5 years after the boo saga, Ssj3 Goku was stablished as the top dog around, regardless of mystic gohan. Several comments point on that, from the Vegeta acknowledge that if ssj3 goku lost to bills, nobody else could harm him, or from kame senin comments when Vegeta was enraged "he even surpassed goku". Yet this is not impossible, because even if mystic gohan was stronger then ssj3 goku at the end of boo saga (what it was never stated, but I repeat, I don't want to enter in this kind of argument), 5 years later is reasonable that goku trained himself to become the top dog again. I mean, it's goku after all. Just dealing with facts until now.

3) Goku had a gigantic power leap. Seeing how his freaking BASE level could do better then Ssj3 goku pré-god form, his boost was massive. That is supported by Bills comment about how goku got used to this new world of power, absorved it and didn't lost much power after getting back to base power. As for the multipliers, they were throwed out of the window in the moment that a base goku can kind of keep up with Bills, yet a Ssj Goku is still not good enough to beat him, and yet Goku ssj god form seems still stronger then either of the previous forms.

4) Vegeta will eventually get his God like form as well

5) There will be more movies, more god villains and a new saga probably.
