About Dragon ball and its cosmology (Manga)

[TheGunsFinalWrath]

What do most people agree with in this site about dragon ball cosmology? It being infinite, or not infinite? I'm confused. Seen lots of guidebook scans referring to the cosmology being infinite. so... Is it really? from what I remember, i've seen some threads about this, but it doesnt seem that people agree with the others that argue it isnt infinite, and vice versa.

 

[Hasty12345]

I believe the universes in DB are currently accepted as finite.

 

[Shubham_Sonsurkar]

Yeah, only the game version has infinite universes via having infinite timelines

 

[Hajunn]

I think the Dragon Ball's cosmology is clearly finite.

 

[Alexander]

also if it were infinite, it contradicts the super and the universe looking finite and it is even said that it has an edge (very large to reach the edge) it is better with cosmologies that do not show how big the universe is and use trips to others universes and dimensions

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

The only thing almost infinite in DBS would be that the creation of Timelines is still applied

 

[Gilad_Hyperstar]

Looking finite or having an edge is not necessarily a contradiction to infinite universe

Even an infinite series can be bounded in some cases. For example, the collection of all rational numbers between 0 and 1 (aka 0 < x < 1) is both infinite and is bounded between 2 edges. Using all real numbers instead give us an uncountably infinitely many points befween 0 and 1

So just because it looks finite, doesn't necessarily means it is in fact finite.

I'm not saying that this proves infinitely sized DB universe though since that's another topic from what I said now

That makes sense, after all, the concept of the number 0 is different from the concept of the number 1.
because 0 is, well, nothing, and one is something greater than zero,and you will never reach 1 only putting:

until infinite,practically the numbers are infinite in some way

 

[Vietthai96]

No, just no, please don't bring back my nightmare.......

 

[Alexander]

No, just no, please don't bring back my nightmare.......

me,about what?about that the numbers can have infinite

hierarchies through the numbers 0 and 1,1 and 2,2 and 3,and etc.

 

[Vietthai96]

I say about the thread in general,

 

[Alexander]

I say about the thread in general,

oh well

 

[TheGunsFinalWrath]

No, just no, please don't bring back my nightmare.......

 

[TheGunsFinalWrath]

what about Z then?

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

it is the same, each change in the past generates its own timeline

 

[TheGunsFinalWrath]

it is the same, each change in the past generates its own timeline

are you talking about Z cosmology being finite or..?

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

are you talking about Z cosmology being finite or..?

finite, but is multiplied by each time travel which in turn can generate more time travel

 

[TheGunsFinalWrath]

finite, but is multiplied by each time travel which in turn can generate more time travel

ah ok.

I was about to post something similar to this in response to the other person, fortunately you already have.

 

[SatellaTheWoE]

So....how do we scale the comoslogy then? Is it 5D?

 

[Quantu]

Expanding 2-B.

They are more like "dimentional edges", not the end of any space time structure. Bulma even manage to locate the "center of the U7", being that center something we probably cannot even imagine to understand (Bulma intellect is ridiculous).

 

[DanielX7]

About that, the "creation of timelines" is just an idea of many gods, and on DB, gods are always wrong, more or less. I think is more an "infinite multiverse, and you can enter one from another with thing like "time machines" and "time" rings...
