simple:

Millenia from Grandia II with a few Final Fantasy Black Mages backing her up for good measure. Throw in a Valune Empire Air-Battleship from Skies of Arcadia and the SS wouldn't even get a first shot off.

No, it's a piece of shit Japanese cartoon based on a comic that was entertaining for the first few issues, if you're eight, and then quickly betrayed the absolute lack of range of it's principal writer and artist.

Hell Toriyama can only draw about four people, and he reuses them in everything. (see Chrono Trigger for details).

Dragonball is pathetic. The plots in WWE wrestling are more imaginative.

Don't abuse your brain, read some real manga, like Lone Wolf and Cub.

i certainly hope you're not insulting the best Console RPG of all time :shock: .

Crono Trigger and Crono Cross are both a hell of a lot better than DB(tryingtobethenexdtpokemon)Z.

No Chronotrigger is first a Manga, then an RPG game. The manga characters look almost ID to all of the artists OTHER Manga characters. THe play of both games is so much better then the story of the Manga they are based on.


Hmm, Squaresoft RPG characters vs. all of DBZ?

Look at the Chrono Trigger character designs.

Notice how they're EXACTLY THE SAME as the designs for the DBZ characters.

Notice that they're th esame artist.

Realise that he can only draw four people.

not arguing that, i'm just saying "those four characters" were put to better use in Crono Trigger. I also have noticed how Goku and Crono look the same.

Also Crono Cross used the same guy who did the characters from FF VIII and FF X.

Within Cartoons

1. Bugs Bunny *Knows about the 4th Window (can step outside of the flow of the cartoon, knock out the animation staff, and do whatever he wants to the any and all of the Z fighters), can survive the destruction of the universe, can remove things from continuity, Indestructable, hell of a lot better written/Drawn

2. Daffy Duck *Aware of the 4th window (To almost the same extent as Bugs), can ALSO survive the destruction of the universe, nearly indestructable, also better written.

3. Speedy Gonzalas, Road Runner, & Taz: Actually faster then anything in DBZ, Partial 4th window awareness (They can rape reality), Indestructable, still Much better written.

4. Droopy: Miles slower then anything, always wins by having the perfect defense and timing.


Within Fiction:

1. Any Amberite: can manipulate realities, can bring whole armies to their aid, use magic, etc.

2. Alice as White Princess of Wonderland: Fully aware of scale, proportion, and unreality, in Wonderland after defeating the Queen of Hearts Alice, could use a culture vessel as a Croquet ball and not think anything wrong with it. She can play marbles with the kids at the end of M.I.B.

3. The Culture: Enough said

4. Monkey King from Chinese Legend (First he would give Goku a whack between the legs for being a shameless rip off of him. (Gee, how many staff wielding cloud riding Monkey like beings that can transport themselves across the universe, and beat up gods can their possibly be.) Then he would make everyone of the Z fighters wear a crown identical to the one Buddha tricked him into putting on, just to teach them a lesson. Actually Monkey King may qualify as the 1. threat to dragon Ball.

No it didn't.

It was Nobuteru Yuuki, who did the characters for Record of Lodoss War.

The FF character designer for 7, 8, and 10 was Tetsuya Nomura.

What I have realized by watching this thread is that most of you have no conception just how ludicrously powerful these DBZ guys are.

I'm amazed that the DBZ fanboys have missed the truth of the matter, that Goku cannot survive within a vacuum, I mean he states this against Frieza on Namek. And before you claim Vegita and Bardock, Bardock was not in space but the upper atmosphere and Vegita was within his space pod...neither were in the hard vacuum of space.

Seriously they are ground based creatures with the exception of a few villains, the Saiyans are pathetically weak unless story dictaes by the very fact, once you destroy the planet below, they die...unless Toriyama reneged this FACT and decided otherwise, which then makes no sense given the climax of the Frieza saga was just that.

Why Dragon Ball is just a pathetic rip off of the Monkey King legend.

Smiling Bandit, I know exactly how powerful they are, how much power they waste, how much of their potential they never use, and how much their moronic level of intelligence shines compared to the remaining population of their universe. I don't think that gaining their power is likely, which is why I want to know how to kill them efficiently.

That was my suggestion long ago.

Of course I still say that Rei is far cooler then Kenishiro.. I mean the I punch things and they explode isn't as fun as my fingernails rip you into many piecies two frames later.

On the other hand, I would actually like to see a Trigun crossover with those idiots. Think about it. Buu and Cell vs. Vash :twisted:

And just think about how much more meaningful and tragic Wolfwood's death was compared to all of the not quite deaths in Dragon Ball Verse.

WOLFWOOD's NOT DEAD!!! He's just been healing, and he's hiding out at my house right now, and we're having a great time together and... Okay, he's dead, and I guess I can accept it, but it still sucks, he was my favorite character in the series.
