GOTENKS IS WEAK O.o ---> AP Buu Saga Review

Hello Everyone. Well while I review the Dragon Ball's Attack Potency Blog I see that put Gotenks (Pre-RoSat) > Majin Vegeta SS2

But the problem is that in the Daizenshuu 7 says that Gotenks after the training in the RoSaT supassed Majin Vegeta

Also the argument to put Gotenks Base (Post-RoSaT) > Gotenks SS (Pre-RoSaT) is for the Piccolo's statement that possibility that Gotenks can defeat Super Buu. But in posterior panels Piccolo doubts if he can beat Buu

For this motivo I considerate that the scale should change like this:

  • Post-RoSat training Base Gotenks surpasses Majin Vegeta SS2 - 1.053 KiloFoe (Solar System level)
    • Super Saiyan Gotenks is 50x base - 52.65 KiloFoe (Solar System level)
    • Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks is 8x Super Saiyan, Potential Unleashed Gohan is superior to both - 421.2 KiloFoe (Solar System level)
  • Super Buu is around the same level as Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks, later absorbing him adding his power to his own, and later absorbs Gohan after Gotenks defuses inside him, becoming even stronger - 842.4 KiloFoe (Solar System level)
  • Base Vegito is superior to both Super Saiyan 3 Gotenks and Potential Unleashed Gohan - 421.2 KiloFoe (Solar System level)
    • Super Saiyan Vegito is 50x base - 21.06 MegaFoe (Solar System level)

Actually, I think it was Krillin who outright compared Gotenks to Majin Vegeta even without the SSJ form. Though as for Post RoSaT surpassing SSJ Gotenks Pre-RoSaT; Piccolo still remembered what happened last time and insisted SSJ transformation, but sense his PL later and did rethinking that maybe they could without it.

But my main problem is that Daizenshuu puts Gotenks Base Post RoSaT superior to Majin Vegeta implying that he was previously weaker.
 
Daizenshuu is not the primary canon compared to the original manga. It is simply secondary canon.
 

I don't agree with this reasoning for their Post-RoSAT base form surpassing their previous Super Saiyan form. Piccolo says nothing about them being able to beat Super Buu just in their base form, he is obviously still aware that they can transform into a Super Saiyan still. There's no reason to think he isn't taking into account their Super Saiyan form for this since if their base is massively stronger than they'll be massively stronger as a Super Saiyan too.
 
Yeah I'd apply that statement to SSJ Gotenks, not Base Gotenks. As for the Daizenshuu statement, I'm torn. It's not like Krillin is an unreliable source, though iirc it was Gotenks's confidence that had him thinking "maybe he could beat Buu" even though Piccolo clearly thought otherwise. Based on this, I'd probably defer to the Daizenshuu statement and only scale Post-RoSAT Base Gotenks above Majin Vegeta
 
Also, Krillin never explicitly compared base Gotenks to SSJ2 Majin Vegeta. He just states that maybe Gotenks will pull it off (defeating Buu, that is), but Piccolo who is more intelligent than Krillin knows better has no faith at all that Gotenks can do it.


@Tom4t0GG789 You can put me down as Agree.

Okay, I was making the changes for my speed blog taking this into account, I'll have to make the changes again :'v

Thanks for your participation anyway
 
It could've very well been an even match with Gotenks still being much weaker than Majin Vegeta and Buu. Buu's durability is highly flexible and for all we know Gotenks could've landed several amazing hits on him and be no closer to killing him due to Buu's regeneration.

I still think it'd be better not to directly scale him over Majin SS2 Vegeta.
 
I'm not sure how? Buu was manhandling Majin Vegeta. Having an even match with him would absolutely give Gotenks better scaling
What I meant was that Buu can sometimes get hurt pretty badly even by someone weaker than him (such as Kid Buu getting half his body evaporated by SSJ2 Vegeta despite Vegeta being weaker than him), the damage just doesn't stick and he doesn't get weaker.

So even if Gotenks "siezed the initiative" in these off-screen battles, he'd absolutely lose.
 
Obviously, Gotenks obviously couldn't beat Super Buu even in base or SSJ; he needed to go SSJ3 in the end just to be his equal. Or arguably, have an upperhand.

But, Gotenks in base doing better against Fat Buu than SSJ2 Majin Vegeta did and Krillin's statement about higher PL are given. And Piccolo was confident tables are turned in SSJ Gotenks. As for the Super Buu, Piccolo insisted to go SSJ due to what happened last time, but when he sensed the base PL of Gotenks, he noticed they've been training and calmed down realizing they might stand a chance.

So I think base Gotenks is should upscale from Majin Vegeta, though more neutral about stacking another 50x multiplier but leaning towards still keeping it.
 
This isn't really stated as far as I can tell. Vegeta also held the initiative against Buu at first. It was just an inevitable loss.
Buu was holding back that entire fight because he wanted to enjoy the feeling of taking hits, and when he got serious, he outright stomped Vegeta.
 
Vegeta also held the initiative against Buu at first.
Vegeta unleashed upon Buu a flurry of strikes and a Final Impact, only for Buu to completely ignore the damage,—asserting the attacks only hurt a "tiny bit",—nearly incapacitate Vegeta with an Angry Explosion, and then brutalize him without resistance until Trunks stepped him.
