Dragon Ball Super Discussion Thread 100

What I mean is, if its bigger than at least one of its suns, would it be olan inflation to use our sun as it's conservative diameter?
I mean, the default assumption would be our sun, actual rule, unless we have an explicit reason to think otherwise, our sun usually serves as a baseline.
We could do a beyond-conservative low-end with the smallest known orange star, but that's kinda sussy, it'd be assuming as such just to avoid big numbers, as opposed to being "safe and conservative", which, is just as bad as wanking. Maybe average range? But iirc that's bigger than the sun, aka, it'd fall back to the sun again.

we probably can't use colored versions since they aren't canon otherwise in almost all of those depictions the stars look like a G sequence star just like the sun

All this talk about Suns reminds me of one thing.

We wouldn't use any color scan, none canon, I'm just assuming it's orange tho as it's drawn like earth's sun in a few shots (that being white circles), and, planet namek's light evidently isn't fucky.
 
we're using the word inflation a bit too comfortably
Its dragonball, you can't be too safe

Yea, but....can't be too safe at this point

We could do both, one of the sun and one of the smallest known orange star, the planet parameter app makes it easy, what's the diameter of the smallest known one?

For diameter of the sun, or gibes about 71.701 Ronnatons, dwarf star level

It’s definitely not inflation. When we calculate a planet we use the earth as a baseline. For stars we use our sun as a baseline. It would be like using Pluto for the average planet we don’t know the size to. It’s just the baseline that we use unless we get stated sizes or statements that’d say otherwise.
 
You can still get a warning after being warned for the 9th time?

(interesting 🤔)
 
Are the "World" entries containing anime-original lore retroactively integrate said lore into the primary canon, then?
Like the events surrounding Goku and Chi-Chi's wedding, including encountering Annin, are referenced in the Z-Encyclopedia.

I guess it depends if it contradicts anything or not

Suppose it’s case by case. If it was dependent on something contradictory it just doesn’t count

Which would make sense, because, according to the people who worked on the Anime, a lot/most of/“usually” the ideas/concepts/lore made by filler was created by Toriyama.

I don’t know if it was ever intentional for this overlap to occur, but I do think it’s interesting nonetheless.

Didn't we see a photo of Goku getting tired with in super? I remember there being something like that in some super episode.

Since it doesn’t contradict anything it’s prolly canon tbh since we do know according to luffy’s thread that many anime-original scenes are things that “probably happened” in the manga and this is likely an example of that
 
Damnit, Chi-Chi's only noteworthy feat throughout the wedding arc is one-shotting Mai and Shu—fodder.
To be totally fair to Chi-Chi, in the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai, she was able to match suppressed weighted Goku in Jump Height, and surprised him with her first attack. She was even considered "amazing" by Krillin. This is all important because King Chappa was absolutely clowned on, and couldn't even realize Goku had eliminated his presence. (Which the Z-Fighters make as a mark against his skill.) It's even explicitly noted he didn't use any of his real power, whereas Chi-Chi, while obviously held back on, was able to get up basically unharmed from an attack that created an air shockwave on raw force. And that's ignoring that Chappa was considered to be a threat to Goku before the 22nd TB, even by Roshi. In fact, this very fight is what makes Roshi think he may be in trouble. (Mind you, these judgements are based on his performance Post-Korin Training with Projected Gains before they see the fruits of his training). And this is all pretty consistent with her Power Level, (130 relative to Roshi's 139 at the 22nd TB/Resting in Saiyan Saga). So I think it's pretty safe to scale Chi-Chi above Chappa.

So who wants to start up the CRT for Otherworld/Subspace being 1-A for transcending the concept of time?
