Dragon Ball's cold immunity

So in the last episode Vegeta was able to survive with no damage absolute zero's temperature,shouldn't that make all top tier of DB with cold immunity?
 
I haven't seen the episode so I can't judge. But why would you scale a resistance?
 
Do you mean Hyssop's attack? Because that wasn't actually absolute zero. Absolute zero temperatures wouldn't encase your arm in ice. It's when all particles become almost completely motionless.
 
Why all? It's only proven Vegeta can survive absolute zero. At best (and I mean at best) this would go to all sayains because they share the same physiology.
 
Kaltias-Well resistance is the ability to resist something to a certain extent i guess,but since absolute zero is the lowest temperature exist that make them completely immunity to cold i think

LordGriffin1000- I didnt mean the whole sayains race i mean all the top tier which around the level of vegeta and above

The kioshin stated that the attack was absolute zero and that a single touch would freeze you to the bone.
 
Being stronger than someone else doesn't grant you all their resistances. Hence why this thing doesn't have a whole paragraph describing her resistances just because she is stronger than this guy.

Absolute Zero

This seems to be a case of a series using absolute zero to mean "incredibly cold and able to freeze things", which is rather common.
 
Kalitas- is was Base Vegeta who survive the absolute zero come on.. obviously if Base Vegeta can tank that with no damage there is no reason Whis\Beerus\Hit etc cant,dont be fixated

That's not how it works
 
There is a perfect reason and it's the fact that AZ attacks do not care about who you are/how strong you are. You tank a AZ attack if you are resistant to it. Not based on how powerful you are
 
Absolute Zero

It could still be absolute zero just with ice incasing them as well.

It seems more like the ice encasing his hand was what was inhibiting him, considering once he went SS, the ice shell shattered and he could immediately use his hand, again.
 
Just because he uses his hand again doesn't mean it's instantly not absolute zero, it could also mean he's just resistant.
 
Azathoth the Abyssal Idiot said:
That could apply to literally any feat said to be "absolute zero", though.
That is true but the statement does come from a supreme kai (though he's a dick) he like all supreme kais should be very knowlegable.

I understand that it doesn't have all the proof but even the absolute zero feats in fiction page says it's unlikely you'll actually get visual proof of someone's atoms freezing.

I think this still should be a possibility.
 
The only thing they will get is resistance to poison via that barrier and it will only apply for Goku and Vegeta.

Well if you agree with not giving Vegeta resistance to absolute zero then I won't keep arguing even though I personally believe he has it.
 
The absolute zero page is literally for "feats" like this. It has nothing going for it but a name and doesnt act any differently then your usual ice powers.

What you need for absolute zero to be accepted is a statement that its -273c or molecules stopping their movement. Like Rukia

Of course there's going to be another 5 threads on this though. Its DragonBall afterall.
 
If it was truly absolute zero, universe 9's kaiohsin wouldn't later boast something as unimpressive that it's so cold it freezes bone on contact. For it to be truly absolute Zero it needs to act like it in some way or be more specific on the ability itself and provide more solid examples why it's absolute zero instead of just a freeze gun.Otherwise it's just complete hyperbole(Considering the universe 9's kaioshin does nothing but boast his fighters throughout the time he is shown on DBS, I'm confident he was just boasting for show.)
 
Jesus I already said I not going to argue.

@Aizen the attack has no name, it's just stated that his ice is absolute zero.

I wasn't specifically talking to you per say, just merely providing an answer to the thread itself and anybody really who argues for it.
 
From the Absolute Zero page:

"Completely stopping all movement and vibrations of the target's particles, effectively freezing them at the atomic level."

But all ki blasts in DB cause atomic level destruction, probably lower. So I mean its not completely a stretch :^)

BUT ALSO

That would make Geryuganshoop's gravity attack against Saitama an actual black hole (when we clearly see it's not), or amaterasu is as hot as the sun.


Clarification is needed.
 
Closing this shit.

Firstly: it's entirely possible that it will be confirmed as Absolute Zero with further explanations and side-material like official character profiles from Toei.

It's possible that it won't.

Secondly: Wait for the damn tournament arc to end. And then people like me, Dark 649, Ryukama and other staff that agrees that Super needs some revisions will make a thread.

Preferably Staff Only to avoid it being flooded by 200+ comments (It likely still will, though.)

Generally for something to be accepted as Absolute Zero we need:

  • Statements (Preferably multiple) from Omniscient Narrators or Official Guidebooks
  • Explanation that the attack freezes the atoms
  • Explicit statement of -273 Celsius
Also, other freezing feats of an approaching scale by lesser characters, such as - 200 Celsius attacks or colds stated to "Approach Absolute Zero" help as well.

Regardless, it's very annoying that Dragon Ball people make new upgrade / revision threads every week, something that's rarely done for any other series. Most people tend to wait for story arcs or seasons to end first.

Thread closed.
