What can Kill Dragonball Z Characters, especially Saiyans?

consequences · Post by **consequences** » 2002-09-26 04:50am

I'm posting this in Off-Topic because I'm not sure if it counts as anything resembling Other Sci-Fi.
The thread title says it all, I don't care what source the method of execution comes from, just please explain what it is, how it will work, and why DBZ characters resistance to kinetic impact and wide spread energy blasts will not save them. DBZ characters are from the end of DBZ
To start things off:
Weapon; nerve gas blanketing the characters houses in their sleep
Source; Any modern military arsenal
Mechanism; shuts down the nerve functions of anyone unprotected in the area who does not take the antidote
Reason it will work; They breathe our air, eat our food, and successfully breed with human women, this means their biochemistry is very similar to that of humans. By blanketing the area with a massive overdose while they are asleep they are not given the opportunity to actively defend against the effects of the gas.
Drawbacks; There is absolutely no guarantee this will work on the Nameks, and the Saiyans character shields may be strong enough to fight off the effects.
Reasons for doing it; Short of using the Dragonballs, this is the only method modern militaries have access to with even a slight chance of success

Bugs Bunny + Eraser

or.

General Disinterest in the Lousy Series.

or.

During the 15 minute Narrator's End Cap, calmly walk up behind while they are striking that frozen pose before taking forever to power up an attack, shove a brick of C4 up their intestinal Tract, walk away and detonate.

Well if they survived 1E39 sized expolisions before some-how I don't think C-4 no matter how far shoved up anywhere will do it

Simple lack of Oxygen kills nearly all of them Along with Bio-chem agents killing the ones who don't need to breath

Step 1: get a super-powerful fighter similar to ones that they've had to spend 10+ episodes to defeat.

Step 2: Have him forget all those stupid energy attacks that can be dodged by a blind old lady, and simply have him rip their heads off with his bare hands.

Or just tell him to break into their house in the middle of the night
and suffocate them to death with their own pillows.

My own character, Tahalshia, God Of Time. Any attack that could seriously wound him causes him to rewind time just enough to dodge, and strike back with attacks that seek through Time itself for a weak point, and ruthlessly blast it.

The Jjaro and the Wyr'cackntr could do it rather easily, but that's going overboard..Them vs. the Culture is like DBZ characters vs. a fly

A rifle... apparantly swords could cause damage if a saiyan wasn't paying attention. Get an ordinary human sniper, hide a long way aways (apparantly they can't sense someone whos not a powered up fighter unless they are specifically looking for them), and BAM, not fancy Chi power to sense, and unless they are fully charged expecting it, it would seem to me that the round would pierce right into them like it would into any normal person.

a saiyan caught a bullet once, without using his ki.

You know what? DBZ characters can talk in space where there is no sound, that along with the fact that time goes much slower in their universe (how about that planet with 5 minutes until it blew up that lasted about 30 episodes) proves that their physics are different.
By different I mean weaker, partly because I hate them, therefore I say a Redshirt weilding a small carrot and a leather shield that smells faintly of cat pee would be able to beat them all to death.

Actual storylines.

They'd die of shame and confusion.

And they wouldn't yell at each other all the time.

Ex-lax. With their sudden "freedom" they won't be able to grunt and groan their constipated way to ultra-super-mega power. Then we cut loose Vash the Stampede.

Didn't we want to limit the collateral damage? At least you didn't bring in the Dir^H^H Lovely Angels.

Then we get a railgun shooting at a significant portion of the speed of light (ie. 0.25c). Even at 10 km, that's a travel time of maybe 34 microseconds tops. I doubt that their nervous system would have even had time to start reacting before the round got there.

Or just go for a lightspeed energy weapon -- a true lightspeed weapon, not the subluminal "anime" weapons. 8.34 microseconds to target from 10 km out is too short of time to respond, especially if you shoot for the brain...

Against a Saiyan? What brain?

You're right... except they're heartless, too, so there are no other vital organs to hit.

Maybe a spleen shot?
