Wait tell they hear goku only lives to 100
 
The most significant thing to me here is that in this episode Super Saiyan Power makes a reappearance. It briefly seemed to appear in DBS: Broly when Vegeta was first transforming, but that could be argued to simply be Vegeta drawing out how long it takes to power up as the energy rises in his body. This is pretty inarguable, though. Goku turns SSJ, goes back down, and maintains his SSJ Aura in Base to strengthen himself and defeat fodder. Now, what does Super Saiyan Power add to Powerscaling? Absolutely nothing. I just think it's amazing how a concept made up by the old Z Anime to write off a last second change and effectively a "correct animation error" (as strange as that sounds) has become a completely and totally accepted part of Dragon Ball. It's great and I love it.

I was about to mention that too. Super Saiyan Power might have just been made canon.
 
So just a general question, but how strong do you think the Tamagami warriors will be? If I had to take a guess, they are probably around the SSJ2 Gohan, Vegeta and Goku level given that no one's ever beaten them, which presumably includes Dabura. I think it's a stretch to assume they're at the SSJ3 level, but then again, we still have no idea how the story's gonna go. What do you guys think?

This is a good guess that I think has value in it. My only detractor is we don’t know how much the Wish nerfed Goku yet, exactly, so for all intents and purposes it’ll probably only be nebulously stronger than Dabura. Especially because—You have to remember—So far the final boss (outside of any leak info) is gearing up to be Gomah with the 3rd Eye, which he was confident would make him unbeatable to everyone, including SSJ3 Goku and Buu. So unless the Tamagamis end up superior to 3rd Eye Gomah, they have to sit between “Above Dabura” and “Beneath SSJ3/3rd Eye Gomah.”

They could play around it by having Dabura simply have never tried, though.

Yeah, it's a slippery slope to make these guesses since we don't have enough info like you said. Thinking it over, it's possible that the Tamagami could rival Buu. Glorio was confident that Goku could defeat Gomah since he'd already defeated Buu, but when Goku expressed the desire to fight the Tamagami, Glorio believed it wouldn't be possible at first. This is another large stretch, but I just wanna mull over everything we know so far. I'm sure that 3rd Eye Gomah is going to end up being the strongest in this arc since there's already been a set-up, and I imagine he's going to rival or potentially surpass Buu when he gets that power. But overall, I think the SSJ2 level would still be the safe bet for the Tamagami's level.

Okay, I find this bit interesting but I am kind of lost. What do you mean with Super Saiyan Power and "animation error"?

Depends on how you interpret the statements. At the very least it can be assumed they are superior to Dabura, so top-tier Cell Saga level at the bare minimum, but I think this is lowballing.

Gomah states that the 3rd Eye would grant the user unbelievable/absolute power, and even says that the 3rd Eye would be more useful than turning the Z Fighters into children. This suggests that Gomah believes the 3rd Eye would make him stronger than SSJ3 Goku. If you wanted to wank him a bit you could even try to make the argument that it means he believes he's stronger than Vegito, but that's definitely not the case imo.

From there, you just take the statements from both Gomah and Kadan, paired with the fact that people have presumably used the Evil 3rd Eye yet never beat the Tamagami's, and you could extrapolate that the Tamagami's are possibly stronger than SSJ3 Goku and etc.. This can be supported by the fact that they are the big threats ATM after the Buu Saga.

But this is a lot of guessing and extrapolation. Realistically we're probably giving them too much credit as Mini Goku will likely be able to fight them and potentially beat them. I'm more interested in the diff he'll have and if we can get a more hard-coded statement about their strength compared to characters like Dabura. If they really are stronger and Mini Goku mid-diffs them or so, it gives more context to scaling for both Daima AND the Buu Saga.

But I digress. Obviously we don't know and have to wait and see.

Super Saiyan Power is the nickname for the anime filler scene in the Otherworld Tournament arc where Pikkon and Goku leave from the Grand Kai's planet to deal with some old villains in Hell (the infamous anime speed feat calced to quadrillions of times FTL that base Goku casually performed, fyi).

There, Goku transforms into a Super Saiyan to beat up the Ginyu Force for some reason. But the studio looked back on this and decided they didn't like it, not because of the weird thing of Goku using SSJ to beat fodder but because they wanted him to "save" it so it would be more eventful when he used it in the tournament portion of the filler arc. But instead of redoing the whole sequence, they kinda lazily just turned his hair black but left it spiky with the golden aura. And thus, Super Saiyan "Power" was born. Since then there's been subtle occurrences where base Saiyan's have a SSJ aura, and people think this is a reference.

Ah, yeah, I remember that. It drew my attention as well when I first saw it. I can see the Studio's reasoning, IIRC when Goku goes SSJ against Paikuhan during their fight it's treated as an important moment. But yeah, kinda neat they built a bit of lore from what was essentially an animation patch.
 
Maybe we can get some interesting hax from Daima. Aside magic being actively brought up opposed to a minor power of specific characters, Glorio has explained on a few ocassions the many hazardous conditions of the Demon Realm.

I mean, I doubt Goku and Vegeta will end up using magic, but Piccolo maybe? And I can see the guys powering through magic using demons and other Demon Realm related conditions.
 
Does Ssj1 Daima have the same power as adult Ssj1 level?
We have no idea how strong Mini Goku is lol.

SSJ is a fixed multiplier so if his base is 10x weaker then his SSJ form is also 10x weaker. But realistically it seems like he's not even comparable to his adult self, based on what's been happening in the show. On the other hand him, Supreme Kai, Glorio, and others after seeing his strength think he can match potentially high-tier Buu Saga characters anyways so that could be wrong. If so his Ki isn't really different, just his physical form, which has so far only impacted his balance and melee range. This could definitely be the case but it remains to be seen. It just doesn't make sense to me that they would want Goku to immediately go fight the Tamagami's and then beat up Gomah and Degesu if he's not still very powerful. Unless they're just overhyped fodder. But I mean Goku needed to go Super Saiyan for actual nameless fodder last episode so eh.

Just doesn't seem consistent right now.

To be fair, in-universe the reason why Goku WANTS to go is because he was told they were strong. He just ended up also simultaneously pointing out a good reason why they should fight them. But also, Goku has no actual reference to their strength outside of "Stronger than Glorio, who is stronger than a Nerfed Shin." At best he could think "Stronger than Dabura" since he knows he's the King and never got a wish either. So it's totally possible for the Tamagamis to under or over perform in general because our reference point for them (and Goku's reference point) is very nebulous and vague. It's also possible, given how JRPG this has been, they're gonna do some level grinding. Goku goes, gets his ass kicked, leaves, and then returns after some leveling up to fight the Tamagamis. Seems very Dragon Quest, which is clearly what Toriyama took inspiration from.
 
I would say my first impression is that the Tamagamis must be stronger than Cell at least. I have a hard time believing Babidi wouldn't have been interested in using Dabura to use the Dragon Balls if Dabura were strong enough to win. And we know from the trailer that Goku will use Super Saiyan 2 so we can say that Daima Goku is probably stronger than Teen Gohan.
