It's a game guide from what I know.

Here any third-party opinion is worth more than the author's opinion, which is very funny.

it’s also why people bring up obscure and mid manhwa/LN characters no one cares about that “beat” Goku which is really just a classic case of OC fallacy most of the time. your comment may be satire but to anyone reading this don’t think for one second there isn’t any truth to that. I’ve been in powerscaling circles for over 12 years now it’s absolutely true

Nah I absolutely mean this, saw a goku vs sonic fan animation where sonic did nothing but beat up on goku and it reminded me of those DB vs Sonic threads where certain people would only ever argue against the DB character even if they had never even seen the character's profile.

yeah dragon ball gave these people ptsd and traumatized them it’s honestly funny how explicitly desperate they seem most of the time

People love doing this with Goku, this is to get fans' attention to get more views,since Sonic doesn't have a very large community like DB.

right these people willingly and knowingly enter the lion’s den and try to be provocative and antagonistic and then go “wHY aRe DB fANs so MeAN

Sonic has a massive community dude, it's just that a smaller percentage of them are power scalers compared to Dragon Ball's fandom.

most of them have zero universal ap/durability feats. showed some hax on a universal scale but nothing jaw dropping.
funny thing is, they say dragonball is just statements and zero feats while they fail to grasp that the universe/author they are voting for is known for flowery language and super consistent with keeping things around casual planet/ star level or below galaxy aka zero universal feats (No Beerus v Goku, no Zamasu, no Zeno situation).
They wish to be as clear cut as Dragonball when it comes to Galaxy - Universal stuff.

I always found it hilarious that the Saiyan cast can't survive in space
But Goku could survive in a nuked timeline
Gogeta and Broly could fight in the DoSL

this is exactly why I find Dragon Ball so amusing. no complicated hax/magic spells or anything. Just two dudes punching each other too hard is enough to threaten the destruction of a universe, its that simple. It doesnt get much more raw than that. Like even other high scaling franchises like Saint Seiya are unfortunately never gonna have someone like Seiya for example punch someone and threaten to nuke the universe. Its just never gonna happen at least in no canon work that's just how it is.
dragon ball has more casual planet to universe busting feats than any other series I follow lol especially the anime versions

Really, most of us aren't even toxic, so much so that we don't even need to insult someone, people insult themselves, lolright these people willingly and knowingly enter the lion’s den and try to be provocative and antagonistic and then go “wHY aRe DB fANs so MeAN

Me when I see animations of Sonic characters beating DB characters or DB characters beating Sonic characters and I don't let such things affect my enjoyment and love for both franchises
Like all in honesty, does it matter who wins an animation on the internet or not? It's just made for entertainment at the end of the day and I doubt that the people who have Sonic beat Goku are doing it to bother DB fans, but just because it's meant to be entertaining. Don't put too much thought into such things lads, it'll make you feel better mentally.
And then there's Dragon Ball Heroes where Saiyans can casually fly through space without any issues, that's one score in non canon Dragon Ball's favor/

you can hold that opinion while still criticizing the toxicity thats seen many times. I've been in powerscaling circles enough to know that people who make what seem like bait threads....are probably doing it to bait. Comicvine to this day is a great example of this

In DBZ or DBS?
They could at least go the viltrumites way, and allow then limited space survivability......I heard it was Toriyama himself who kept insisting on this

DBS really, Bulma takes out the notebook about time travel and things from the machine (Trunks himself wants to give her this notebook to rebuild the time machine again so Trunks can go to the future again, after Black goes to the present and destroys it)

I mean frankly, the whole Sonic beating Goku thing from my personal observations has only become a recent phenomenon in the last couple years. Because up until games like Sonic Frontiers came out and Sonic became more shonen, Dragon Ball was absolutely smacking around Sonic for years in animations and there are still certain circles like on Reddit that still think Sonic doesn't even reach Universal levels of power.
And mind you, because I don't want my words to be misinterpreted, this doesn't excuse the baiting of DB fans and I think it's equally as irritating as the people that bait Sonic bros. But what I'm trying to say is that it's going to always be there regardless of what you do and, to me, the best you can do is not let it bother you at all.

I wasn't doing anything more than diagnosing what I see. My only personal take away/opinion on it all is that Goku just really is that guy. But as a result of being that guy, everyone and their mother knows where he scales compared to other characters like Sonic or Saitama or generic manhwa MC who can get away with a lot more wank/higher end scaling.
Heavy is the head that wears the crown, and I don't say that to glaze, I mean this site probably wouldn't be here without DB and Goku.

he is. Its the near-perfect combination of being old, iconic, powerful and influential. few characters check all these boxes

For the past week I've been thinking about making a FC/OC page based on this guidebok, where it's the anime with this entire thing canon to it. It's got other great stuff apart from the cosmology scalingIs this an official DB info book?

It's not terribly surprising that Goku is often the stepping ladder that people compare fictional characters to. When you're the main protagonist of the biggest and most influential anime franchise out there with stardom that extends to nearly country on the entire planet, on top of being a franchise that is famously known for being strong as can be, then people are going to want to compare and see if their characters are the next hot stuff or not. And honestly, I think the vast majority don't come close.
I can think of another character that checks out those boxes, and coincidentally their name also starts with a G

Like Naruto is just Goku but a bit less popular, newer and much weaker. he's like a mediocre goku. A goku you can point towards and say "you should improve your education/training"

The cringest thing is when people say "DBs hax is weak cause it can be resisted" ... like bro? Ive read some good amount of fiction and I can tell you that everything and their momma has a potency, including hax. Be it stuff like durability negation to more jumbowumbo things like laws/concepts etc.
Im not sayin Dragonball every damn hax, but hax resistance/immunity via power isnt something new.

Agreed tho these days Naruto is lacking behind the rest of the HST with One Piece still having a iron cast monopoly on shonen manga industry plus the surprising success of the Netflix live action adaptation and Bleach's resurgence with the TYBW anime adaption, Kubo getting super involved with the community and ofc JJK as well as KNY essentially being Bleach's kids.

Maybe hust say that Goku is the OG? Like, saying that another series is just "mediocre weaker immitation" is def not okay to say, specially when the series in question has......honestlt very little in common with Dragon Ball

I mean...........i don't think that fits in the context of the point, but i guess? The Boruto Anime was in the tops in popularity iirc

i was gonna make an analogy and say Goku is like a Harvard graduate while Naruto is a community college drop out but that just sounds worse...

Even Naruto, which was one of the few with good anime games, is getting bad lately.
We have to be thankful that most DB games are good.
Seriously, that JJK game and this new HxH game look horrible. Not counting the older ones like OPM.
Meanwhile we have Xenoverse, Fighter Z, Kakarot and the new budokai tenkaichi looks incredible.
Even SandLand, which is not DB and is more unknown in the West, seems to be made with great care.
I mean, with the exception of THE BREAKERS. I don't know what happened in that game. But I won't complain too much because at least they tried to try a new style of gameplay and it is updated with new characters to this day even though there are few people.
