Do you think Goku would've let Cell absorb 18 if he switched places with Bejita and Cell egged him on about how powerful his perfect form is gonna be?
Nah, Goku wouldn't appreciate a third party getting hurt. He'd just tell Cell to stop being lazy and train if he wanted to get stronger.
>>281914802It would require Android 18 to die so no, I don't think Goku would do it
Proper Z Goku definitely wouldn't.
>>281914802I always figured that if Goku really wanted a good fight, he'd just ice Cell in a instant and then use Gohan as his training partner, since he knew that Gohan was way stronger than he was anyway
>>281914802at the back of Goku's mind he wouldve thought they could always bring back everybody Cell killed with the dragon balls so yeah its possible. The plot makes Vejita do the dirty work though.
>do you think about my brown slopNo.
>>281914872>>281914906He'd do it under the belief the balls can bring her back.
>>281916111>he would let this person get hurt knowing he could bring them back with the dragon ballsSuper Goku might do that, but Z Goku wouldn't.
>>281914802>>281914861>>281914906how is this different than frieza?
>>281916441Because frieza was powerful by himself.
>>281916441Frieza killed his best friend and Goku wanted to humiliate him and show that he had no chance against him even at full power as revenge.
>>281916441>>281916529Same thing with Kid Buu and Vegeta, if anything Cell really is the odd one out
>>281914802Goku wasn't a full Waku Waku psychopath until super. He was still mostly reasonable back then and would have just nuked Cell.
>>281914802Doubtful. He'd probably say something like "Well, dang. I'd really like to see that but I can't let you just go around absorbing people."
>>281916441Frieza wasn't wiping out entire cities and threatening to blow up the planet (until Trunks). Goku didn't give a shit about Namek. Same with the final Kid Buu fight, it was on a planet he didn't care about and Earth was already gone. The only time in Z where Goku fucked up was ssj3 vs fat Buu, but I wouldn't have called that fight a guaranteed win and if anything it was Toriyama retconning it after the fact.
>>281914802I feel like most people forget what 18 had previously done to Vegeta when he chose to accept this deal.
>>281917138>I feel like most people forget what 18 had previously done to Vegeta when he chose to accept this deal.>Vegeta demands a fight>gets his ass kicked>she leaves him in the care of Krillin instead of killing the entire squadIf anything 18 was too generous to Vegeta considering she KNOWS that he would not have returned the favor.
>>281914802>Do you think DBZ characters would make the dumbest decisions possible?Yes. This is the Goku who gave Cell a Senzu bean and who had multiple chances to end the Buu saga early but didn’t.
>>281916628I'm glad Uub turned out to be such an interesting character.
>>281914802Goku would have done the same or would have won against 2nd form cell since by that point he was stronger then androids and cell first form.Goku didn't even realize gohan was far stronger then he thought until they started training in kami sama place so that tells you a lot about how strong goku, piccolo and gohan were before training.>piccolo defeated android 20 with no issue even after getting energy absorved.>trunks super saiyajin got defeated by 18 in one hit with the toghest one being piccolo.>piccolo close to trunk ssj in power (vegeta was a bit stronger).>gohan training for 3 years with piccolo and goku.This gives you a rough idea of how strong they were in reality before making them not fight in base form.>goku as strong as ssj trunks in base form.>gohan getting close to ssj trunks in base form.Even if some deny it is the reality and goku battling 2nd form cell would have been either a draw or goku winning.
>>281914802Serious answer? No, considering Goku fears Cell.
>>281914802Android and Cell sagas had everyone acting fucking braindead.for the plot to happen.
