Until some idiot breaks the seal. Law of narrative causality.

Kill it normally, then cast Miracle.

If it keeps a Tarrasque dead, it should work for Vorhees.
Thankfully, Narrative Causality has little effect on the enemies of Netheril. They stay sealed up until the Neth are ready to deal with them(Phaerimm under the Anaurach).

Netheril was destroyed by narrative causality (the subclause that if there's one thing someone really shouldn't be doing, it's the first thing the plot requires them to do), they're far from immune.

Suspend the sucker in space with no leverage at a Legrange point, and annihilate anything that approaches.

Transpose the target over an exact physical duplicate made of antimatter.

Call in Goku, after 78 episodes, and the total destruction of Earth/Namek/Random populated planet, he's sure to pull an unbelievable technique out of his ass that will miraculously not be regenerated/dodged. Either that, or he'll just contort his face more, and shout 'Kamehameha' louder for the same result.

Oh, I'm sorry. I thought we were being serious.

Retract my time corridor proposal, then...

Hey, the first two of mine were serious(the third one is too if it could be arranged).

Actually Goku wopuld be an effective deterrent.

He'd just stand there huffing and gurning until whatever it was got bored and went away.

Forgive me Vendetta for posting about your comment becuase I can tell you're joking, however I'm starting to wonder how many people, on this board and others, actaully belive the DBZ crew has to stand there for hours at a time screaming. Its such a common response I hope nobody is starting to belive it.

I'd like to introduce you to my friend the fire axe.

Chop them up. Burn the pieces seperately then bury the ashes in sealed containers (of various materials) with various wards and seals, in various sanctified, relgious and holy areas.

A mild exaggeration.

But a valid criticism of absolutely the wrong way to adapt a comic series into an animated one.

I've only been able to endure one episode of the show, and there were repeated pauses of a minute or more at a time, only occasionally with narration, where the characters just stood and huffed at each other,

This makes for intensely tedious viewing.

(not to mention that the entire storyline is based aroung thie current villain being no cleverer, no more attached to the characters, and no better a character than the last, it's just that this one only has to fart and a planet blows up, whereas the last one at least had to exert himself into pointing at it)

Some of the movies are actually enjoyable, but the series itself is severely lacking.

I totally agree on your points but I myself find it enjoyable....the thing that annoys me the most about that show is the sheer amount of it CN decides to play all the time. Way, Way, too much. But I do watch some of the more better fights.

See the thing I was talking about though really wasn't what you were saying as much as I see it said so many times people are making it sound as valid versus debate materal instead of show critizim....I saw you meant it as critizm it was just the straw that broke the camels back.

Donuts, is there anything they can't do?

Alternately, have Radical Edward eat the baddie.

Or feed it Akane's cooking

DBZ could actually be a fairly enjoyable series if someone just edited out ~9 minutes of pointless grunting, tense staring, scenes of shocked onlookers, and landscape pans per episode.

Oh, the topic, right. I'd find me a really good wizard or priest, have them study the metaphysical layout of the monsters power, and cauterize all the branches that could lead to the thing's self-regeneration. Then kill it very thoroughly indeed.

To try and get this thread back on topic, to kill Jason, you´d have to kill the spirit of his mom, because she´s the one that keeps bringing him back. Freddy flat out can´t be killed (remember that he exists as a dream entity, and always returns to that state even after being brought into the real world and killed there), but he loses his power as people forget about or stop fearing him.

BTW: My post assumes that bringing in people from other fictional universes is out. Obviously no one is invincible if you can just bring in someone from an even more ridiculous universe.
