So king Piccolo and Roshi are moon busters

Should be in the dragon ball forum but I don't see the issue. In the case of King Piccolo you need to use power scaling granted.

i mean...yeah

Why not. KP claimed to be planet level.

with toriyama idk tbh.

becouse you cant base how strong a character is on explosions in dragonball.

its simply impossible.

what i am trying to say is , saying king piccolo is not a moon buster and roshis moon feat is outlier becouse king piccolo showed city level feats only is stupid in db.

you have nappa using the same atack in the same arc twice and guess what did more AoE the serios one or the casual one?

i personly believe roshi is not moon level.

i actualy take feats only from king piccolo and up seriosly.

King Piccolo is literally nuke level.

At best, Roshi’s Buff Form is moon level, not his base...if you wanna pretend outliers and PIS feats don’t apply to Dragon Ball.

You can only see this in comic vine boys..Roshi destroys moon literally and people say he cant LOL ahhahaha.....Just because King Piccolo didnt shown same feat that doesent mean he cant replicate the same....I have a firecracker and grenade from war in my house....Just because i dont want to release grenade that doesent mean firecracker explodes better...

Maybe master roshi and piccolo make certain people feel insecure about their favorite character from other manga or comic...

@straja: There is a lot of this around here. Feats mean more than logic and common sense on vine and it's sad.

Roshi yes, KP no.

Those are just gag feats. It happened only for the sake of a certain episode plot.

@ps4gamerdude: gag feats lol? do you have any evidence or just what YOU want it to be

am i missing something ? Roshi literally busted a moon on panel...

Yes

I mean toriyama didnt say anything about goku taking boss rabbit to the moon being an outlier or that it doesnt count, as a matter of fact he even confirmed the distance from earth to the moon to be like ours.

Toriyama pulls feats out of his A** when he feels like it.

Again, prime example nappa.

@arthur_morgan:

Still waiting for feats from King Piccolo that are anywhere near moon level.

Anything to disprove the Daizenshuu nuke level statement. No one seems to want to provide anything.

@mainjp: already said above KP is not moon level so calm your tits.

But knowing toriyama, he will not discredit roshi moon busting but at the same time probably doesnt think king piccolo is moon level.

Idk tbh, toriyama cant be consistent for shit wether its feats, statements or even simple numbers.

No wonder we dont get big numbers, this guy thinks 20kg is heavier than 40kg going by his manga.

I wasn't talking about you.

Lol.

@mainjp: they trainined 3+ YEARS before this with 40kg shells.

3+ years of training and they got weaker.

The fact that tien is shocked about 20 kg is ridiculouse.

This is not how you show a character got massivly stronger.

The fact that ppl take the 40 tons training seriosly when this is in the manga is funny.

@arthur_morgan: That's pathetic because Rock Lee did it better. I know it came after but still.

His weights shattered the effing ground. I love how that scene also implies Krillin can't lift a ton despite pushing 754.71 metric tonnes worth of boulder after training with Roshi.

And it was already embedded into the ground from Goku already pushing it which would have made it a harder push for Krillin. Pushing and lifting aren't the same but the gap between his push and lift feats don't make sense. He should lift a lot and he should push a lot.

Buff Roshi energy projection >>>>>>> King Piccolo's. OR...it's an inconsistency.

He's already been stated to be city-level IN THE MANGA and nuke level in the Daizenshuu. (not directed at you)

Let's talk about the characters explicitly being surprised and frightened by a giant hole Recoome blasted into Namek despite apparently being planet level by that point.

Yea early DB - Z scaling makes no sense

Roshi can bust moon but is scared of a city leveler

Piccolo can bust a Moon with unnamed attack but is surprised at the size of a crater Nappa created when piccolo should logically be able to create a moon sized attack even bigger than nappa’s small feat

Arale destroying moon with a rock

Arale piercing the moon with a telephone pole that causes massive cracks on the surface

Vegeta statement of being able to destroy the planet with a power level of 18,000 yet fast forward on Namek Piccolo, Gohan, and krillin are surprised that Frieza being able to destroy planets like nothing if he wanted to. And piccolo is at least beyond 1 Million I’m Power Levels, for matching second Form Frieza.

I call it Toriyama Gag Scaling for Dragonball to early Z.

@token1300: no, its not only db and early z.

Its all of dragonball.

things like nappas two finger blast makes it look like toriyama doesnt care for AoE and only shows it when trying to make a point.

Also recoomes blast should also be thrown away becouse after him stronger characters didnt do as much damage.

Statements can equaly be wrong and inconsistent as feats.

Krillin and gohan being shocked doesnt make sense when i look at it the otherway.

I mean krillin was shocked becouse of 22kg shoes.

You simply choose to take their statement over the feats and statements before.

Toriyama doesnt care for AoE most of the time.

We only get feats when toriyama trys to tell us something or actualy moves the plot forwards.

piccolo destroying the moon to stop gohan(him not cutting his tail instead makes the feat legit btw since piccolo knew it and actualy cut the tail after destroying the moon iirc.)

Showing the saiyans power and them being savage(nappa, the same atack literaly was like hill level while being serios later).

Frieza blowing up planet vegeta casualy becouse he is that powerfull and been allways implied to be that powerfull and to kill off the saiyans.

Frieza failing to destroy namek becouse he held to much back but in reality it was just a way to make the final battle more dramatic.

Frieza knows how much it takes to destroy a planet and done it before and probably alot of times not only planet vegeta.

After that it feels like toriyama does whatever the fuck comes to his mind.

Buu saga base gohan traveling as fast as beginning of z piccolo makes me question every feat in buu saga.

Especialy the 40 ton one.

Recoomes feat impressing krillin is nothing to take seriosly tbh.

@mainjp: yh, pushing that boulder and being shocked about 20kg shoes makes zero sense.

Thats toriyama.

Tbh, krillin is a pussy, he is scared of anything.

@jooosh1996: Of course because people have trauma from Goku vs Superman battles where Goku dominates...

the moon feats are gags. toriyama literally stated that roshi blowing it up only sent the rabbit gang off to space...

if that's not a gag, I don't know what is.

Those were gag feats. They were for the sake of plot for certain episodes (prohibiting/reversing kid Goku's or Goha's Great Ape transformations).

Nah. Roshi's moon feat is honestly an outlier and King Piccolo certainly ain't a moon buster.

>says that roshi busting the moon where rabbit men were blasted into space unharmed being a gag is ''one of the stupidest''

>says rabbit men survival is PIS and toriyama words shouldn't count because ''meta reasons''...

kek

yeah.... didn't you watch Dragon ball ?

i know, right? they watched dragon ball and remember the rabbit guy and are aware of toriyama statement yet think roshi actually destroyed the moon...like what

Remind me how roshi got Goku to turn from a great ape to normal Saiyan form again?

The moon was destroyed.

@takenstew22: but somehow people think he didn't blow up the moon.

I can understand if people think it's an outlier/high end, but yeah he did destroy the moon no question.

this fact have been since ages so why making a thread about it?

Yes

Buffed Roshi is, King Piccolo don't seems to be.

Yes and they stomp naruto

yes
