Saying that he willed it into existence with reality warping is just headcanon but actually worse since it's not supported by textual evidence.Bruh that last point is literally head canon.

Potentially, yes. Dragon Ball canon is also that there's only 20 something planets with life in the universe. Akira Toriyama doesn't use numbers that big.He says providences not cities though, within the very scan I linked? You think there are 43 cities in the entire planet?
This point is irrelevant. We scale to them when they are done through like, instantaneous reality warping and stuff like this. Creation Feats when they take time or specific processes don't scale to AP for the same reason real world architects aren't High 8-C.Ignoring the fact that we do scale creation feats with AP,
Most of the Dragon Ball world isn't composed of huge sprawling metropolises, we see this in the early arc of dragon balls. There are plenty of isolated areas with little technology.The world is not divided into 43 cities, we blatantly see areas outside of cities.
Wait so it was toriyama who wrote that or Toyotaro?Potentially, yes. Dragon Ball canon is also that there's only 20 something planets with life in the universe. Akira Toriyama doesn't use numbers that big.
And we see one of the cities / provinces Piccolo intends to blow up. They're not that big.

When we see the place Piccolo blows up it's just a city. Sure there's area outside the big city that's technically part of the province's territory but he wasn't wiping out a huge chunk of the world.Yeah, that's the point. Piccolo said the world is divided into 43 providences. To say its divided among 43 cities is just pushing this argument to ridiculous.
Kami and Popo creating Shenron is literally an example of this. They do a ritual involving glue and a paper machie doll.I don't think at any point did magic in DB, specifically creation magic, wasn't instantaneous.
Ah yes because the amount of aliens there are is absolutely comparable to the amount of cities there are. Despite IRL there being no proof of aliens yet and the amount of cities we have being a key aspect of how society and humanity as a whole functions.Dragon Ball canon is also that there's only 20 something planets with life in the universe.
Amazing how me simply going against the grain of this subjective hobby makes me wrong."I never said I don't believe in Outliers, I do! For example, I think the Hulk shaking infinite dimensions with a thunderclap is an outlier. I am very reasonable."
Just because you're not wholly absurd doesn't mean you're not wrong still.
The point of my argument is that Toriyama often uses unrealistically low numbers for things we would instinctively assume are bigger.Ah yes because the amount of aliens there are is absolutely comparable to the amount of cities there are. Despite IRL there being no proof of aliens yet and the amount of cities we have being a key aspect of how society and humanity as a whole functions.
I would definitely still classify it as part of the magic abilities that Kami and Popo have, and one which we actually see on screen. Kami bringing back the moon is kind of unquantifiable since we have no idea how he did it.@Matthew_Schroeder I said creation, not life manipulation.
What exactly stops him from just, flying around and blowing up each overtime with 7-B blasts? It's a pretty big jump to assume this statement refers to him making a single attack to wipe out a continent when many 7-B attacks is much more in line with what they actually demonstrateI was referring to King Piccolo stating he'll just destroy 1 /43 of the world on Piccolo Day. Actually find out what I'm talking about before you try "debunking" it.
... You know, I entirely forgot there was even other stuff on this thread, which really demonstrates this idea. They really should have just made 3 rapid fire if they wanted to dump Dragon Ball Upgrades post CRT allowanceI don't know why this thread is actually 3 threads in one. Literally all those 3 topics in the OP deserve their own threads otherwise this will get nowhere. I don't even know which point to address. We should only focus on one of them for this thread.
According to King Piccolo, the Earth is divided into 43 provinces. When he pulls a number from his box, he says "Province 29! The city of the west!" which would seem to imply that Earth is divided into 43 cities.@DMUA that's a good point, but he then clarifies after saying he'll destroy the 43 regions, he clarifies he'll destroy the region instantly as mercy. (Vol 11. pg 49)
Understood. I just thought maybe it would help.Because the lowest value is still High 6-A and a massive outlier, even if you actively ignore the actual context of what happens.
