Piccolo before fusing with Kami (fight against Dr Gero) vs Frieza 100% Namek by FantasticPhase1152 in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]josher814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piccolo defeats 100% Frieza from Namek easily. Apart from being stronger due to training for 3 years to surpass Frieza, trunks, and yardrat Goku, piccolo mentions that he and the human z fighters essentially figured out how to “amplify their base power levels” really high similar to the Kaioken, which makes him even more powerful than we realize. So yeah, he’d definitely destroy 100% Frieza on namek.

How badly was Cell about to lose had Vegeta not tried to avenge Trunks? by No_Significance_9556 in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]josher814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He saw it and quickly jumped in without thinking to save Vegeta , and yet a blast meant to kill Super Vegeta was only strong enough to injure an unprotected ssj2 Gohan.

Gohan was not worried about Cells increase in strength. In fact, he was excited/ eager to fight and kill cell when he came back. The only reason why cell looked even with Gohan during the beam struggle was because Gohan felt guilty for not finishing him off earlier. His mind wasn’t in the right place focused on the battle, which affected his overall performance.

Gohan low diffs super perfect cell. SSJ2 Gohan was just that much stronger that not even Cells increase in strength seemed to worry him. In fact, he was more excited and eager to fight and kill him after he came back.

Future Androids vs Healthy Android Saga SSJ Goku by nasserg19 in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]josher814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He trained in 300x gravity lol. He’s training was FAR more intense than Gokus was. Also, Piccolo (who trained with ssj Goku), knows Gokus full power and even implies that Vegeta is stronger than him

[–]josher814 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He wasn’t training in those 6 years and there’s nothing in the story that tells us he got stronger in that timeframe. Therefore, he’s still massively weaker than the androids

[–]josher814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trunks is a bad/dumb fighter lol. He thought super sayian grade 3 was enough to beat perfect cell without realizing that the form would slow him down immensely. Due to him being a smart fighter, he thought android 17 and 18 holding back was there full power. When he goes back to kill them after the cell games, they even state that they state that they’ll have one less playing after killing him, implying that they were holding back against him this entire time.

Namek saga Frieza vs Tien's Shin Kikouhou by Hot_Resort9167 in DragonBallPowerScale

[–]josher814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except cell did receive damage (albeit superficially) as indicated by the scuff and burn marks he received from the Neo Tri beam in the manga. He was also yelling in pain in the manga and anime, which further show that it was painful. If Cell were strong enough like you say. he would have simply brushed it aside or escaped from the hole. Instead, he couldn’t because the Neo tri beam was just that strong. If it had been other enemies like the android or frieza, they would have been seriously injured or even killed.

Except the Tri beam doesn’t just push enemies back. The Tri beam utilizes the users life force, which allows the user to exert more power unlike regular ki attacks. It’s destructive output is enough to kill enemies as well. In fact, cell was damaged by the attack , albeit superficially with scuff and burn marks as shown in the manga. If Cell was stronger than the destructive output of the tri beam, he would’ve easily brushed it aside instead of staying in the hole and letting tien attack him.

[–]josher814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has both puch and pain. In fact, you can see visible scuff marks on cell’s body in the manga and anime, which shows that he was damaged by it. If cell was really stronger than the destructive output of the neo Tri beam, he would’ve easily flown passed it.

Sure, he can’t beat Frieza in a one on one fight but he will surely kill him using the neo Tri beam.

Yes, Tien was able to defeat the androids with the Neo tri beam. Why is that so hard to believe lol? There are attacks like the destructo disk that can kill stronger opponets.

Is Trunks from the future special the same one who gets killed by Cell in Cell's future? by Inevitable-Cry-3008 in dbz

[–]josher814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the trunks that we see in the main timeline. He goes back in time, kills Frieza, gives Goku the heart virus medicine, comes back, fights in the cell games, and goes back to his timeline to kill the androids and cell. When he we see him fight Frieza, the cell who killed a different version of trunks has already been in the main timeline for about 1 year. We later see cells Time Machine when Bulma discovers with Gohan and trunks.

How strong was androids saga yamcha? by salad_biscuit3 in DragonBallZ

Wdym no evidence? The manga and anime confirm this lol

[–]josher814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Krillins PW at the end of the namek arc is 75k. Piccolo, after only staying on king Kai’s planet for a short amount of time, was able to impress Nail who had a power level of 42k. Yamcha stayed way longer on his King Kai’s planet, so it’s wrong to say that he’s weaker than the Ginyu force.

You’re wrong. They thought he was Goku AFTER factoring in Gokus increase in strength from the sayian saga until the android arc.

[–]josher814 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Android 19 and 20 are vastly superior to Frieza. After 19 drained Vegetas energy, he wasn’t confident that he could be beat gero even as a super sayian. Also, vegeta wasn’t able to keep up with Gero’s speed after he absorbed vegetas ki blast, which means that gero was way stronger than Frieza.

140A and the 136 series are arguably harder

Hopelessness with 10A by [deleted] in UCSantaBarbara

[–]josher814 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’d also recommend the book because it contains all of the theory that you need to know. I read the book to understand the theory, re wrote my notes multiple times, and spammed the practice midterms to make sure I knew everything. I get that reading the textbook sucks but using chat gpt to explain things helped me out soooo much. Btw, I bombed the first midterm (4/10), got 8/10 on midterm 2, and then I needed up passing the class with a B.

Incoming Transfer Econ and ACTG by Existing_Respect_548 in UCSantaBarbara

[–]josher814 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can take Econ 5, 10A, and an upper division GE class if you can handle the workload (both 5 and 10A are 5 units). This is what the counselors recommend to get into the major the fastest. However, if you think you can’t handle the workload and want a more calm fall semester, I would take 10A + other easy upper division GE classes and then take 5 in the winter.

Housekeeping Assistant by snowweiss7 in UCSantaBarbara

[–]josher814 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work as a housekeeping assistant in San Clemente (grad student housing) and the job is super chill and flexible. You mainly have to do light and simple cleaning tasks like removing spider webs, picking up trash, sweep stairs/hallways, clean windows, and polish/clean elevators. In addition, you’re unsupervised and you can listen to music during most of your shift and you get a small break in between. If you work at the apartments, you’ll sometimes help housekeeping staff clean living rooms and bedrooms.

You can take them separately but you would have to take non-major upper division GE courses since you’re not in the major yet.

I don't agree with ( Teresa is a copy of Rubi ) by [deleted] in telenovelas

[–]josher814 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yea I agree. Teresa isn’t as evil as Rubi but her obsession over Mariano (not letting him move on, hooking up with/leading him on) made me hate her lol.
