I could maybe see her having skills without him, but there's no way an Ultimate won't include Gohan. Not only because such moves in Videl's moveset mostly include him, but also because she has nothing of note that could be one.

One thing I imagined though, while Videl would more likely to be a Technical, they could make her into a Tank considering how long she got beaten up by Spopovich kek.

I think Cabba should inherit SSB. Caulifla should get an original evolution of super Saiyan (like youngjiji's ultimate super Saiyan). Kale should get something that looks like SS3 like God Belly.
Thoughts?
>>
>>539224698
Caulifla has pretty much nothing going for her if you give it a deeper analysis than her tits. >>539224930 is a truth nuke. Caulifla is utterly outdone by her own fusion that acts exactly like her.
Goten and trunks on the other hand are just underdeveloped. Trunks has his future counterpart to bounce off of and Goten's the son of the main character so there more potential with the two of them.

I don't think so. I always visualized it It'd be fairly short and more wide than downwards.

IIRC it's because Japan finds the movie impossible to take seriously, so they dunk on it with MAD videos, and despite him having so few lines, him and Broly say every Japanese syllable, so sentence mixing with them are pretty much endless.

Broly one is the best one. Bio broly is overrated though. Gotenks vs broly was a missed opportunity and would have made the movie an 8/10. Second coming is bad. It marks the third time Gohan begs his daddy to come save him.

I don't even know why they bothered with the new kingdom, Vegeta doesn't give a fuck about it and only goes along to fight the super saiyan. And yes, the plan is overly convoluted since he could have just left Vegeta in that planet then flew away, or just let Broly kill him.

>>

I'd assume M8 (And only M8) is so memed on is because it takes itself way too seriously. The Janemba movie is silly, but has significantly more goofiness (Such as fat Gogeta).

>>539253739
I never watched Daima but I thought Super Hero was good so that's not too bad.

>>539253739
No one will have nostalgia for it because it was unremarkable. It was a standard seasonal show unlike the sensational genre defining Z and the world shaking Super. They're more likely to remember dandadan.

Still wondering who I should get between those 3. Previous thread had these replies:

>>539202646
>apparently Cell is ass, I'm going to pick Hit since I like the Technical role the most (C17 and Freezer are awesome). Also I'm going to pick caulifla and cooler for tanks so I'm good

>>539202780
>Hit is good for sneak attacks, clouds and bushes are your enemies worst nightmare
>Cell can heal himself and trap people preventing them from running from battle
>18 is great for chasing people, all her skills have range and aoe
Reminder this is a big decision to make since the next time another character from this group becomes available is at level 109. Anyone has anything else to add? Hit looks like the oddest of the 3 from what I've seen, like a stealth version of Krillin.
>>
>>539257573
Stay near people to boos their damage
Rush Attack them to debuff them
Charge his kick to stagger or use it raw to debuff
His ult buffs everyone and makes his debuffs faster
His shield debuffs people if it hits them and prevents like half a second of energy damage
All of this is good in a vacuum but he is so extremely squishy (especially late game) that it's more like he just hangs around for his buffs and throws out a masenko and kick because if he actually attempts to brawl he'll get fried.
>>
>>539258310
I'm confident in saying that Hit is the hardest to play, possibly in the entire game. He's weird. Very weird. He's closest to 17. I have no idea how to use him effectively.
>>
>>539259430
Yeah I'm considering to get him because he seems to be weird... But maybe he's too weird? I just wish I could at least mess around in training mode before making a decision...

what level was she compared to you guys?
>>
>>539261456
It's just that the tanks in general are overtuned. If a tank is at full health and I'm playing a technical and I see them while I'm roaming I just shake my head and move on because I know that unless I get immediate dps help it literally won't matter what I do to their health bar.
>>
>>539261089
When I played Caulifla while leveling her up to 2 I never transformed even once any match I played because my health never reached 1/4th.
>>
>>539261456
Zamasu is a monster in early game but he falls off pretty hard in late game.
Caulifla is solid in every phase of the game.
that said every single tank in the game melts to Goku

But yeah it's by far the most insane rule. Everything else is so-so but everyone starting off with a maxed ability just goes nuts
>>
I tried making a tier list and put more than half the cast in A tier. I'm only A4 right now and main tech so I don't have much experience against early lane tanks but the cast feels pretty balanced to me.
It's just that there are a few outliers: Caulifla and Goku on the high end, and Buu and Bojack on the low end. Gohan and Daimaku also feel like they underperform, while Krillin feels like he's almost up there with Caulifla and Goku with how frustrating the bastard is to play against.
>>
>>539264139
That one is particularly insane since the "skill 1 will be more powerful" is not nearly as busted. The beginning is so explosive because of that...
>>
>>539264139
Yeah, I highly recommend EVERYONE to turn off auto. It doesn't take long to get used to leveling and it gives you way more control over your character, same with cards.
Doesn't make me hate super start any less, though...
>>
>>539264650
I'm scared.....

Super start should just give two levels of a skill. That way it'll be strong and noticable but not retardedly strong.

Just today I had a Goku who refused to leave the safe zone and kept grinding. Very poorly too because when I was level 6, he was level 4.

Yesterday I had a Vegeta who went for the top lane while I was alone at the bottom lane trying to do, something. Both times we lost of course... I can now understand why Freeza and Baby hate saiyans so much.

I have like 8 games in a row where the my allies get confused on what lane to go to within 1 minute. Dying immediately, going afk for 30 seconds, and then going to the opposite lane as before being the most common.

Laser is clearly the weapon of choice by virtue of the low cooldown meaning it's your tops dps and triggers you passive more often.

>>539284342
His minion summon skills are ass because they have too long of a cooldown
Most Heroes can kill them with one skill that they can use again in 8 seconds while Frieza loses his skill for nearly 20 seconds and he has to set them up cause they aren't instantaneous, everyone just shoots a beam but you got to place the summon skill and wait for them to reach max range for them to be effective.
Lastly if you have both summon skills in use you only have the Royal decree skill and ultimate for attacking Gods, this rule does not apply to other characters so Frieza is just lacking, if you have a character that counters his turrets with AoE range skills then you've effectively shutdown Frieza.
He's just too predictable, either his summons are chilling somewhere protecting a God, fighting a boss, or hidden in clouds and bushes.
>>
>>539284931

>>
>>539285542
soak up 99% of damage as Baby
possess ally at 1% hp
they heal you both back to full
kill them or retreat

but yeah he's a support tank, extremely strong with a good dps, probably top 3 tanks in the game I'd say
>>
>>539260936
Jeeta only has his gay ball stun, all his other shit is worthless. His only benefit being that he is impossible to kill late game, but he doesn't do shit so it might as well be like hitting a wooden dummy

Cooler is the best tank in the game by far
Both him and goku can solo carry games
>>
>>539285542
He's a hybrid character, part tank and part technical, possess allies to heal yourself and whoever you possessed, possess enemies by using a finisher on them so you get a new health bar and can use their skills against the enemy, use energy explosion to deal slow down enemies and finger barrage to deal damage over a wide area.
The problem is that you got to have an ally that also knows how to use him, too many times I've possessed an ally and they decide to run wasting the possession.
Hypothetically If you got a good ally Baby will likely never be defeated

Yeah, his skill 1 even pushes opponents away, which's more of a move to be used to mess with enemy positioning, which sounds more fitting for support.

Uub's moveset is interesting...
>Skill 1 and 3 cause ki blasts to fly above Uub, Skill 1 doesn't have to hit for that, but you get double if you do
>Ki blasts are used either with his rush attack, super attack
>Skill 1 is a big distance beam

>Skill 2 also has less cooldown if you use do rush attack while ki blasts are flying above him
>Also it undoes being transformed into a candy (Referencing when he used the move when inside baby, undoing his own candy transformation)
>Skill 3 is a dash in that the more you upgrade, the more times it can be used. Sounds like it can be used to escape if you're surrounded, since at level 3 you can use it 3 times
>Super attack does good damage, does more the more ki blasts you have
He seems to be a "win more" kind of character, unimpressive at first until he can do a little more when he has ki blasts above him... A cool idea, but kinda pointless when Goku exists. Still find him fun though.

It seems the only thing Dimps was allowed to mess with was Rosé, since SSR2 and SSR3, and even a form beyond it, were allowed.

SSR beyond SSR3 now looks funny, since Daima made SS4 be the next step from SS3 (GT's SS4 wasn't the case, it's basically a transformation path).

>>539292361
Stabilizing a bad situation is worse than winning a neutral one. The heal might save someone through some noncommittal burst but if it doesn't turn the whole fight around so you can score a kill and get some momentum then it's inherently more niche

Those are logical extensions of what Goku/Vegeta can do, Kale and Caulifla getting new forms are not (They could in theory reach those forms, but whether or not there were plans for it we don't know, which's also why no one besides Goku/Vegeta are getting god forms).

That one is a very temporary power up at least, it's stacking an original power into SSB (Which's also what Controlled Berserk is now that I think of it).

She is, but she wasn't that popular even in Heart's arc. Not to mention mechanically she's made redundant by Baby. Most standout thing they could do is having her brother fight alongside her, maybe a Gammas 1 and 2 situation (Even though Oren and Karmin are even more interchangeable with each other than Gammas 1 and 2)

>and Hearts could be fun.
Yeah. I don't know how they could implement his heart reading (Maybe if you use on someone you get to automatically vanish if they attack), but the gravity cubes could be a projectile that slows down opponents at least. There's a lot that could be done with him.

Okay so Piccolo imo is a sorry ass DPS. Yeah yeah Zoning but that means fuck all when Goku and Vegeta hit you with blinding speed and kill you.

Also, while playing as Goku, I kept getting killed by the enemy Trunks and was 3 levels under him. So I said fuck it and went back to farm all those enemies that pop up near your spawn. A minute of doing that and I went right up to Trunks, killed him, and ended up a level above him for the rest of the match kek. Don't be afraid to go farm if you're under leveled, your teammates can hold their own for at least a minute.

>>539297919
It just levels you up so you can unlock more characters
>>
>>539297919
All it does is raise your star level, nothing else. Star level is used to obtain other characters for free. Try to make as many characters as possible level up once before putting the characters at level 2, as this allows you to get more levels. Don't spend Zeni at the daily shop, use it exclusively for star level upgrades.

If you're wondering if star level affects anything combat related, the closest thing it does is unlocking assists, but that's all.

Grab Daimaku to have an extra character, the more characters, the better to level up.

It blew my mind flipping through the manga out of curiosity and finding out that Goku vs Majin Vegeta, one of the best fights in the entire series, was almost entirely anime filler. It was like 3 panels in the manga just to show you that they were fighting. Toriyama was honestly a hack and Toei gets way too much hate considering they're the ones responsible for most of what people actually like about dragonball.

It's literally just this one fight, almost every iconic moment comes from the manga. The combos that become basis for game Super attacks are mostly Toriyama's choreography.

Were these improvements? Yes. Were they "most of what people actually like about dragonball"? No. It's cool they're there, but they're not the most iconic part of the franchise.

Some sembalnce of consistency is required for fights to be meaningful. Also, funny how you picked just that one complaint.
>>
>>539315273
>Gohan vs Buutenks, SSJ2 Goku vs Kid Buu and Vegeta vs Kid Buu
All of these were padded fights that were stalling the plot at hand. These were used to stall for time to allow the manga to pull ahead. Nothing of value is lost from them not being there. Especially SS2 Goku vs Kid Buu.

I just checked. I thought that was in the manga. Kek the anime made him get hurt by rocks and elephants.

>>539316752
I think Cell Jrs. fight is a funny case of thoughtlessness. And I'm not even talking about the famous Yamcha/Tenshinhan scene but Piccolo. He's clearly the strongest of the team in the anime, capable of taking multiple Cell Jrs. at once. But they still adapt the manga line claiming Vegeta and Trunks are the only one holding their own, contradicting their own version of the events.

>>539316280
They're infinitely more fun to watch than one-sided stomps where the other character may as well not be doing anything. This is the most important thing for a shonen. Also made Gohan look like less of a massive bitch which was sorely needed I would say.
>>539316752
This is such a non-complaint. It just shows that the characters can be caught off guard. Does this ever even come up in a fight? What's the issue? You're just looking for irrelevant shit to complain about

>>539317374
>made Gohan look like less of a massive bitch
Gohan was a massive bitch in that fight. Really fucking internalize what happened. He sat on his ass for 70 hours for a powerup after jobbing pathetically to fat Buu, acted cocky in a 5 minute encounter with super Buu, let super Buu come up with a plan, and allowed super Buu to do it for free. Gohan literally lost to someone he started out stronger than.
He is absolutely a dumb bitch. Anything that makes him less of a bitch is a bad adaptation of the manga.

Kid Buu is the strongest Buu bros... What the FUCK is this?
>>
>>539311443
there are a lot of moments like that! the anime production back in the 90's often made good use of its "filler" to enrich the story, in a way that i WISH had been done for Super. some other notable anime-only scenes include Vegeta appearing to Goku as a spirit after Freeza kills him, the scene where Vegeta confronts Super Saiyan Goku and Freeza for a moment immediately after Dende resurrects everyone but before they're teleported to Earth, pretty much all of the Time Chamber training scenes including when Gohan first becomes a Super Saiyan, and Gotenks first fight with Buu (in the manga, Gotenks and Buu don't fight until they're in the Time Chamber).

also the obvious moments, like Piccolo and Goku driving, a lot of the downtime slice of life stuff leading up to the Cell Games, and Kid Buu going to Other World and HFIL to terrorize the dead before Goku leads him to the Kai's planet.
>>
>>539317374
>Bro what, it's a battle shonen, of course the fights are the iconic part.
And these aren't the most iconic fights. No.one says "Kid Buu vs. SS2ku, best fight in the series".
>Vegeta climbing out of the pit against Buu
I assure you that's not the most iconic part of the confrontation.
>You wanna talk about filler "ruining" character moments how about Vegeta's whole number one speech which in the anime is a heartfelt and sincere conclusion to a character arc several sagas in the making, meanwhile in the manga it's just a setup for a shitty gag
It's word for word the manga, most of us are capable of feeling emotions without flashbacks and music. And gags have always been part of the series, both manga and anime. If anything, anime-original content has higher gag proportion. The point that Goku's way of life yields better results still stands.
>>
>>539316280
I agree btw that dragonball is only good when it's Toriyama's source material adapted by Toei. When Toriyama doesn't have a wrangler you get shit like daipa, when Toei has full control you get nonsense like movie 8

I personally wouldn't defend dragonball's filler that much. There's a lot of good additions like the aformentioned majin vegeta fight. But the dragonball anime is an absolute hell of microfiller.

>>

>>539317981
I agree with everything you said except movie 8 being bad. I like it because nostalgia for AMVs kek. It's a bit edgier than something Toriyama would make. I despise how TFS turned the thing into a lame meme.

Yes they do it's always brought up when referring to examples of good animation and choreography lol, everyone loves the exchanges in that fight they're some of the best.

Yes it is. Him getting out of the pit along with his fight in the saiyan saga are why he's a tank in gekishin

The point of that speech in the manga is for Vegeta to talk up Goku just so he can turn around and say "well actually I'm not that strong haha". It's so lame and unfunny it doesn't even register in most peoples' heads that it's supposed to be a joke.

that's what the fast forward function on your remote is for. lol

>>539318338
i don't know, they changed the whole context of that single panel for the anime. in the manga, Goku looks surprised Gohan can almost transform if he concentrates. in the anime, Goku has this almost precognizant faith in Gohan's ability to transform, and uses a Kamehameha to create conditions under which Gohan can utilize that power. the anime version's Goku comes off as being more in-tune with his son and demonstrates wisdom teaching him to tap into his power. plus you get Goku telling Gohan he's proud of him and doing positive reinforcement, which i don't see in that one panel.

i would say hands-down the best instances of Goku being a good Dad both come from filler (the Time Chamber and the slice of life stuff before the Cell Games).
>>
>>539318704
In the original manga the only character who gets Super Saiyan in a well justified manner is Goku. Everyone else off screens it. The anime hard carries super Saiyan.
>>
>>539318848
I'd argue Goku and Gohan simply don't even get to interact that much at all onscreen. There's like what? Goku arriving to beat up the saiyans, the tail end of namek saga, and the very beginning of cell saga before the heart virus?
>>
>>539318338
I can never consider movie 8 as anything other than complete garbage after learning that Broly is takao koyama's OC donutsteel and the entire movie is just his wet dream fantasy of having his OC beat up all the main characters for 40 minutes straight. It's also why Vegeta is such an out-of-character pussy in that film, solely to gas up his OC as the bestest and most legendaryest super saiyan ever. The dude even got vocally butthurt that Beerus was placed higher than broly on the powerscale
>>
>>539318848
Huh you visualized the manga differently than I did. In my mind that manga panel takes place after Goku getting Gohan a little angry over something off screen. Like Goku has been hyping up Gohan. To me it seemed like this was at the end of some long ass attempt.
>Goku telling Gohan he's proud of him and doing positive reinforcement
Huh manga Goku doesn't give Gohan any positive reinforcement. It's like he just expected Gohan to do it. What an ass. He could've said something

Goku and gohan go fishing and have a picnic in the manga and that's basically it for what we see.
Another thing the manga adapted differently is Gohan's hair.
>>539319235
Broly heavily relies on hype and "aura". If you don't think him rolling over everyone is cool then there's nothing much cool about him.
And yes, he is a donutsteel. I guess that's part of the appeal.
>The dude even got vocally butthurt that Beerus was placed higher than broly on the powerscale
Koyama said he couldn't imagine anyone being stronger than Broly during the 90s. Then he said he was in disbelief Beerus was stronger.
This soft implies broy is stronger than SS4 Gogeta.

he has so many cool lines of dialogue. the way he taunts the Shamoians and then effortlessly destroys their planet is so goddamn tough. i need to watch the Broly movie subbed to see how cool his dialogue is in Japanese.

I hate how slow early game is. Have to unlock every ability one by one and they're all shit until level 2 at least, some are crap even until 3 like bejita's technique. Do you guys reckon the game would be overall better or worse if you started with all abilities unlocked from the get-go? I think it'd be way better but maybe I'm overlooking something
>>
>>539322172
This just goes to show that the old man lost his touch. "People like Vegeta so Vegeta spin-off will be successful" is something a clueless suit would say, editor needs to think a step ahead like Torishima himself once said. Though I agree on how Toyotaro can't structure his pages.

It's faster paced than Overwatch in a lot of ways. If you want to generalize then the grand majority of hero shooters and mobas boil down to teams standing behind their tanks until someone fucks up and loses a backliner and shit just falls apart.

Would Squadra's balance suffer of they allowed a Damage/Tank/Tank/Technical teams? Tanks appear versatile enough for that to work methinks. Or perhaps the games would stalmate too often? Just thinking about it since they have the longest queues, so there's some demand here.

I like freezer, and I understand that they want to punish bad positioning of the characters by giving him long cooldowns.... but it is really punishing.

I know is my fault if I put Zarbon on the wrong direction, but If I call them back and they dont get killed they should get a fast refresh or something, some times we win top, and I cant do damage to the GoD because my first 2 skills are on CD or are on the battlefield. so cant do damage to it....

would not like them to just give them 0 CD, but sure need a little buff or change.

I dont own 18 or 17, but I would say, her Z costumes... which they will come no brainer.

I've been coping since 2018, but anytime we get a new DLC with 100% new models, it becomes increasingly clear that there either isn't a Xenoverse 3 hidden deep somewhere that they get their assets from, or there is and the new models, while still better, aren't/won't be that big of a jump in quality.

And if there isn't one, they'll probably just reuse these and tweak them if we're lucky because there'd be no sense in making it all from scratch.

I think it's incredibly retarded that even if you interrupt a burst some of the damage still goes through.

I just realized ever since his debut this game will be the most canon broly will ever speak and interact wit hteh world around him because his screen time since his debut has been so limited, Toei didn't bother to add him to Super Heroes just like Android 21.

Still, It's surprisingly wholesome to be targwangling Cheelai and Broly and be stupid together, I'm down, through I won't pay for this not unless either Wrath or Legendary Super Saiyan is an awokening.

And now for more important business, we need to keep Cheelai away from the troublemakers she's just as bad as them but not as powerful

False. Dragon Ball Legends.

I actually liked it more than DBS Broly because He and Paragus get some character development. Mr Satan even gives Paragus some fatherly advice

Yeah. Shallot and the two of them all worked together to bring Broly back to his senses and Paragus stopped forcing him to fight.

But then Zahha brainwashed everyone but Zahha (and goku?) into thinking Shallot was a bad guy so for like 15 months we had to deal with that, and then a grueling set of raids leading into a new story thing during the anniversary, and we're still as close to the climax as we've been since July.

Turles is too smart to be Kakarot unironically. Goku only takes steroids when he's jobbing from other people, he doesn't seek them out.
>>
>>539373665
And that's what makes him the mirror. Goku would only go for steroids selflessly as his preferred method of attaining strength is training. But Tullece doesn't care about it, and "cheating" is his first answer.
>>
>>539373665
Goku isn't as dumb as you think. The difference is that Turles is a ruthless saiyan bastard. If given the option, would you train for years to get stronger or eat a piece of fruit that yields 10 times the results? Not to mention most saiyans don't even know you can get that much stronger if you train hard enough. They just see it as honing your skills. Instead, they rely on their zenkai boost, like Bardock.

Not really. Cell would have either lost to Mastered SSJ/SSJ2 Gohan after killing someone because he wouldn't fight back if he was actually close to Goku or he would've triggered SSJ2 by being a cocky dipshit if he was just holding back a lot against Goku. It was Cell's ball to fumble the entire time; if he just blew up earth after learning IT and his freak accident he would have won but he's a cocky dipshit so he didn't. He likely would have remained a cocky dipshit even without the senzu bean. I blame the Vegeta in him.
>>
>>539377281
Cell was way too strong for any MSSJ, they NEEDED SSJ2 Gohan that's what Goku said in no uncertain terms

Giving Cell a senzu didn't change anything about that. If anything it was a nice taunt that baited him to bring out Gohan's SSJ2, he could have not cared and killed him or been impatient if he was starting to feel tired and killed him same way. Giving Cell a senzu had only ONE downside and it was that they had no more senzu after they used the remaining 7 after the Cell Jrs (which was a dumb choice they should have kept some for Gohan)

It's not the senzu, it's that Goku didn't realize Gohan doesn't enjoy the thrill of battle like he does and needed to have Piccolo scream it in his face.

He's just lucky that Cell was so cocky and wanted to goad Gohan into showing his true power

I don't think Goku was really WRONG. Piccolo's speech was compelling, but really it mostly just highlighted how dire the situation was and Goku's reasoning for not telling Gohan the plan went probably way beyond just "he likes to beat up people so I'm not telling him anything"

People keep saying Goku fucked up because Gohan hates fighting, but you know what prevented Gohan from transforming? Not that, rather he wasn't able to get angry on command. He tried, he couldn't. It was the first time he was asked to do so on the spot and he choked.

I don't think Goku miscalculated as much as "he saw a pretty desperate situation and took the only path forward". I'm not sure telling Gohan about the plan would have been any different: Gohan KNEW what the plan was after 2 pages of fighting Cell, and he was still unable to bring out his anger.

I thought Kale was really good when I first played her but now I think she kind of sucks. She's a squishy zoner who wants to stay back and has a beam that deals more damage from further away, but at the same time she has a passive damage buff that only works if you're right next to a team-mate. The slow ball thing also feels like a mostly useless gimmick. And lately I've been getting matched against people who know to just run away when I pop the ult. Maybe I just don't get how to use her properly

The thing is, Gohan has asked what Goku was planning on doing, and he dodge the question. Goku was being a piece of shit in that regard. Not asking Gohan if he wants to throw Cell a senzu, never letting Gohan know he's far stronger, never telling him of the potential he felt, never telling him what his damn plan was.

>>539378551
The arc is fundamentally fucked because it hinges upon the good guys fucking up over and over so Cell can locate the androids and absorb them. Namek was obviously different because the good guys actually had to SUCCEED to get the balls. One could say Buu was similar to Cell in the sense that it relied on the good guys messing up for Buu to absorb people but in truth things happened in a much more chaotic, unpredictable way and the good guys reacted instantly to Buu's absorptions (Vegeto being the payback for his second one).

I think you're misrepresenting this part a little. Here's Goku explaining his rationale, and he's pretty clear about Gohan's power being awakened. He just doesn't give out specifics about "get angry, turn Super Super Saiyan" but that wouldn't fit a Toriyama manga.

He says later it isn't, and Gohan needs to get mad to stand a chance against Cell at all, so all Goku did is make things better for Cell.

>>539379183
Everyone tells Goku he's being a retard here for throwing that senzu... Later on Piccolo convinces Goku to gang up on Cell because letting Gohan fight alone is a terrible idea.

I like Goku, but the way he avoided telling anyone what he was planning, specially never telling Gohan about it he was going to be the plan B just in case Goku himself failed, it's just a massive dick move on his part, and Piccolo convincing Goku to gang up on Cell shows that even Goku himself realized he fucked up.

Piccolo understood Gohan better as a person but Goku understood Gohan's power more because he was the most competent Super Saiyan.
One thing Piccolo also understood more is that the mental state needed to be trained too; a good amount of his training of Gohan was getting him to mentally prepare for battle against the Saiyans. Goku failed to adequately prepare Gohan, he merely focused on mastering Super Saiyan. That was his real fuck up- power over actually tapping into power. In another world where Piccolo and Goku (or if one of them had the other's expertise on the subject) could both train Gohan in the HTC he would have faired way better.

>He says later it isn't, and Gohan needs to get mad to stand a chance against Cell at all, so all Goku did is make things better for Cell.
That's the point people don't seem to get, Cell was murdering everyone, senzu or not. That's what Goku says in the very page you posted. Cell only got serious here, and the senzu didn't change anything about that. Hell, he spawned 7 Vegeta level fighters without breaking a sweat. Goku didn't tire him out nearly enough to make Gohan or anyone else strong enough to have a chance.

>Everyone tells Goku he's being a retard here for throwing that senzu... Later on Piccolo convinces Goku to gang up on Cell because letting Gohan fight alone is a terrible idea.
They were all wrong. Goku even says "I knew it" when Gohan goes SS2 and kills the Cell Jrs.

It's exactly as shown in the page you posted. They had ONE path forward, it was Gohan SS2. It involved putting Gohan on a difficult path. Ganging up would have meant JACKSHIT, and Gohan didn't even need to be told specifically about his anger, he figured it out in seconds.

Really it comes down to >>539379673
Piccolo's speech is compelling, but the flaw with Goku's plan had nothing to do with Gohan's personality or love for fighting. It was 100% about him being unable to get angry.

I wouldn't put it like that. They both understood parts of Gohan's personality very well in their own way. Goku spent a long time bonding with Gohan as well. Piccolo might have seen some of the more vulnerable parts of his personality when they trained for the Saiyans, of course.

It's quite interesting how Gohan has two father figures. I just don't vibe with that stupid "Piccolo understood Gohan better" myth propagated by burgers and TFS. Piccolo was doomposting while Goku was giving Gohan the moral support he needed to defeat Cell but because there's no compelling speech to highlight that people don't even notice it. Worse even, TFS replaced Goku with Piccolo in that sequence.

Tbf these go hand in hand. Gohan couldn't make himself get angry enough because he didn't want to kill Cell, even as the world was at stake. That's what Piccolo is talking about, and he's right. If 16 and Mr Satan couldn't clutch it they all would have died.

It's mostly just that Goku didn't understand the parts where it mattered most.

I actually do think Piccolo understood Gohan the person better, and the story seems to agree. Goku isn't a bad dad persay, but he's not a good one. His biggest flaw during Cell saga was really not connecting with Gohan during their year of training, and that's what Piccolo's telling Goku; he fucked up. Goku knows he fucked up too. If you disagree with the writing I get it because Cell saga's pretty poorly written, but the intent is that was Goku's character flaw.

I disagree. Goku said it himself, he knew it. Piccolo was doomposting before that and even during the father son Kamehameha, Goku was the only one who could take Gohan down this hard path. Piccolo was just the one with the comfortable position of calling it crazy without actually having to call the shot. Goku called the shots and he was right.

Piccolo didn't understand shit, he just knows he made the same mistake in the Saiyan Saga, when Gohan panicked instead of joining in the attack.

16's speech seems to paint that as the reason. He wants to "beat" Cell, but he doesn't want to beat Cell. He really did want to be gentle and to not have to kill him, and 16 made him understand that he would have to let his anger out and kill him. Him dying afterwards made Gohan understand where he went wrong too.

>His biggest flaw during Cell saga was really not connecting with Gohan during their year of training
I completely disagree here too, if anything the ending of the Cell arc is about Goku being a good father and moral support for Gohan. The entire Cell arc can be interpreted through the lenses of fatherhood, creation, legacy, with Gero's legacy being Cell, a crude imitation and perversion of the enemies he wanted to destroy while Goku and Vegeta had to bond with their sons in their own ways.

>That's the point people don't seem to get, Cell was murdering everyone, senzu or not.
And you're not making things better by using one of your senzus on Cell, that means it's one less in case you actually need it, and in that page he says he did it to make things fair to Cell, which is retarded... Whatever damage Goku did to Cell, he felt it was enough to warrant a senzu.

>They were all wrong. Goku even says "I knew it" when Gohan goes SS2 and kills the Cell Jrs.
Fact is that Goku made a massive miscalculation about Gohan and how he can access his own power, Goku realized this fuckup to the point he decided to gang up on Cell.

The way Goku wanted to go about it would only result in failure too, because Gohan couldn't access his power if he was the one getting killed, which wasn't part of Goku's plan, and he was completely sure it would work, and Cell deciding to play along and try to kill them was so clearly not something he ever expected. Even seeing everyone else almost getting killed was not enough to get Gohan to transform, he needed pep talk from 16.

>It involved putting Gohan on a difficult path.
And Goku did jackshit to make it better. Telling Gohan about it? No, and dodge the question whenever Gohan asks. Training an extra year to see if they can access Gohan's power in some other way that doesn't rely on a life or death situation? No. Once Goku himself failed he just kicked Gohan into the fight and told him to solve everything, no preparation for it despite having so long. Let Gohan fight a slightly weakened Cell? No, fight has to be fair.

The way Goku acts makes more sense in a meta way, he says nothing so the reader knows nothing, and everyone else is as surprised as the reader. In-universe he's being a frustrating jackass with a dumbass plan that could have failed in a bunch of ways. It worked in the end, but that doesn't make the plan less frustrating.

Goku was correct on his bet that Gohan could release his rage but that didn't mean he was right. He was lucky Cell didn't kill Gohan and instead tortured him, which he WASN'T betting on. It was their only means available BECAUSE Goku trained Gohan poorly, and that's what Piccolo is saying. He isn't doomposting and doing nothing when he could otherwise do something, and he was ready to pointlessly join the fight against Cell anyway. He was telling Goku that he fucked up, he was right. They got lucky and won.
>>539382493
Gohan didn't NEED moral support from Goku, it was 16 that brought out his rage, not Goku telling him he can do it. His father's spirit helping him with the One-Handed Kamehameha is something but for the most part Goku was a bad father;
The key issue is he failed to prepare Gohan to fight Cell, just made him strong. He never at any point really connected with Gohan. He just saw the power in him, but didn't see what was holding that power back, and they all almost died for it.

Gohan never had any issues with killing. A 2 pages "let's not fight, it's useless, we can speak and I'm not into this" speech doesn't suddenly make him a pacifist. I think the difference is that you're framing this as a conscious, rational refusal to kill, while in truth it's a mixed bag of emotions and inability to bring forth a state of insane rage on command. And we know exactly why it was so hard for him to pull it off, because the moment he did that he went full school shooter. It wasn't an easy task, but it was completely necessary. Maybe Gohan could have been better prepared emotionally for it but I don't see anyone being able to do so, Goku or Piccolo, it was extreme.

>And you're not making things better by using one of your senzus on Cell, that means it's one less in case you actually need it
They had 7 remaining ones and he stole them effortlessly. The senzus were a non factor. Ganging up on Cell was a non factor. This senzu was nothing more than a formality. It was a taunt to Cell, and, most importantly, an important part of the arc theme wise: Goku was proud of his son and knew he'd destroy Cell, that was meant to show the level of trust he put into Gohan, more than fighting ethics.

>Fact is that Goku made a massive miscalculation about Gohan and how he can access his own power
He didn't quite miscalculated. If anything he knew how desperate the situation was in the first place >>539380018 Look at the face he's making there. He knows it's hard but it's the only way forward.

>Goku realized this fuckup to the point he decided to gang up on Cell
Not really. He finally folded when he saw Gohan was in (real) danger and wanted to save him there, but that doesn't mean the ganging up strategy had become viable. It was doomed, no matter what. SS2 was the only thing to do.

>because Gohan couldn't access his power if he was the one getting killed, which wasn't part of Goku's plan
That's why he taunted Cell with the senzu and telling him Gohan was about to fuck him up.

>Cell deciding to play along and try to kill them was so clearly not something he ever expected
I think it was not only expected but very easy to foresee actually.

>Even seeing everyone else almost getting killed was not enough to get Gohan to transform, he needed pep talk from 16.
First death would have been enough to make him transform, pep talk or not. Cell himself says he was almost there.

>And Goku did jackshit to make it better. Telling Gohan about it?
Useless. Gohan knew it was about anger. It was clear as day, and they trained one year together.
>>
>>539382865
>It was their only means available BECAUSE Goku trained Gohan poorly
Goku literally gave Gohan the best training possible to the point he was way above everyone else, Goku included, what are you on about?
>>539382656
>And you're not making things better by using one of your senzus on Cell
But you're not actually making them worse either AND it actually DID make things better because it's what made Cell curious enough to accept Goku's surrender instead of going 'fuck all of you' and killing everyone on the spot.
>>
>>539382875
He never had issues with killing but he couldn't unleash his rage like Goku was counting on... because Goku failed to understand Gohan. 16's speech helped him understand that he could unleash his rage, and his death let him do it. The story is framed in a way that without 16's speech, Gohan couldn't unleash his rage, and that's where Goku failed; it isn't a complex speech and can come from anyone. In the year with his son, Goku didn't understand anything other than
his power.

>No, and dodge the question whenever Gohan asks
"Yeah Gohan we're going to fight Cell in 10 days, I'll be first but honestly he's going to fold me, I can tell he's like thrice as strong as I am. Thankfully you're a bit stronger than I am so I'll be relying on you to fight him instead, please get angry and hope you powerup like you did on day 318 in the room of spirit and time because if you don't we're all dead"

Or... he could give him the pep talk he needed on the day of the fight >>539379059
Notice how serious and focused Gohan is after that. He's not hesitating, he's not doubting himself or anything. Goku understood this far more than 90% of the fanbase. You vastly overestimate what Goku could have said.

>>539382865
>He was lucky Cell didn't kill Gohan and instead tortured him, which he WASN'T betting on
That's exactly what he was betting on though. And he easily knew that from Cell's personality. He made this tournament to prove himself the strongest and fuck with people. If you were to ask fans reading this for the first time back then "will Cell let Gohan transform or will he kill him asap?", what do you think would be the answer?

>that's what Piccolo is saying. He isn't doomposting and doing nothing when he could otherwise do something
He was literally doomposting during the Father Son Kamehameha while Goku was giving Gohan the pep talk he needed despite the odds being stacked against him. And Goku was fucking dead, Piccolo was right there.

>Gohan didn't NEED moral support from Goku
He got moral support from Goku twice, with the pep talk before the fight and during the Father Son Kamehameha. The second one was more critical than the first one.

>>539383461
>Goku literally gave Gohan the best training possible to the point he was way above everyone else, Goku included, what are you on about?
Giving him the best training available doesn't mean it wasn't poor. If Goku actually understood Gohan he would have trained him to unleash his rage, or at least attempted. He was unironically completely oblivious to Gohan's issues and they almost died because of it. He could make Gohan stronger but he couldn't teach Gohan how to use his power.

That's just factually wrong. The Cell arc revolved around Goku being a good father. That's why Vegeta says he was defeated by father and son. That's also why Vegeta and Trunks failed, THEY didn't connect as much. Trunks hid things from Vegeta for the sake of his pride. It took until the very end for Vegeta to be able to accept his love for his son (although he had already some feelings of pride for him against Cell 2)

That's because at no point in Gohan's life did they have to 100% rely on his rage coming out on demand. It always happened in response to something else.

16 delivered a great speech but if you think Gohan would have just lied down and let everyone die, you're obviously wrong. Cell himself said "almost there" and nobody had died yet. Someone dying would have tipped the scales.

I swear, people would look at pic related and say Goku doesn't understand Gohan because he's telling him to go get the job done even though it's hard. Yeah it's hard, but Goku knows Gohan can do it and guess what, he can. It's that simple.

What was Goku supposed to do?
Take Gohan to the PTSD room and have him reenact simulations of Cell killing his loved ones over and over until Gohan becomes edgy like in the fanfictions and can tape into Super Saiyan 2 at will?

Is that your idea of a Dragon Ball story beat?
>>
>>539383998
>That's exactly what he was betting on though
Not in that way. He was betting on Cell torturing Gohan to make him mad; he wasn't betting that someone would die before Gohan. It wasn't that "will Cell torture Gohan" it was "will Cell KILL Gohan eventually". His panic made this clear, in the story itself he realizes he fucked up. If Cell got bored the world would have been fucked, but he got lucky that Cell was counting on killing others.
>And Goku was fucking dead, Piccolo was right there.
It's easier to give peptalk when you're dead unironically. Also, didn't Piccolo help out or was that anime only?
>He got moral support from Goku twice, with the pep talk before the fight and during the Father Son Kamehameha. The second one was more critical than the first one.
He maybe only needed the second one, which came after he fucked up. The first one didn't do anything because Gohan was never psyched to let out his rage.

Yeah, in hindsight if you know about the events, they didn't matter. It's still a terrible idea to use one of your emergency instant heals and give them to the villain who's trying to kill all of them.

>Goku was proud of his son and knew he'd destroy Cell, that was meant to show the level of trust he put into Gohan, more than fighting ethics.
"Hey son, I trust you. I trust you so much I'm going to help out the guy trying to kill you. You go this kid!"

He did

>Doesn't work to the point Goku considered ganging up on Cell
>Cell beats up everyone with Cell Jrs anyway
>Even that isn't enough and Gohan needed 16's pep talk to transform
Goku was right about Gohan's potential being the way to defeat Cell, but his plan was still retarded and relied on only one specific factor, that Cell would be interested in Gohan's potential and focus only on Gohan, and Gohan would get mad enough to transform. The moment Cell decided to change how he acted, Goku was caught with an egg on his face.

>That's why he taunted Cell with the senzu and telling him Gohan was about to fuck him up.
Just the fact he gave up and said Gohan will take over is more than enough.

>I think it was not only expected but very easy to foresee actually.
Doesn't matter, Goku quite clearly didn't predict it.

>First death would have been enough to make him transform, pep talk or not. Cell himself says he was almost there.
Yeah and that's not part of Goku's plan.

>Useless. Gohan knew it was about anger. It was clear as day, and they trained one year together.
Emotional preparation. And they had one extra year to try to control it with other means, but Goku decided not to.
>>
>>539384815
>He was betting on Cell torturing Gohan to make him mad
Okay, that's the first time I'll agree with you. He thought Gohan would be able to conjure enough rage to awaken his powers as Cell tortured him. He didn't expect it to get to the point where Cell would have to torture others for that. Was it a bad assumption though? Did he drop him there defenseless?

He gave him the speech beforehand (what you're fighting to defend, and so on), he knew Gohan knew what power he banked on, and Gohan had shown that power while training with his father in the room of spirit and time.

There just wasn't much else to do or say. Gohan knew what he had to do, and couldn't do it. There was no way to prepare him for it. There was no plan to discuss with him in ways that would have mattered (except making things worse).

>He maybe only needed the second one, which came after he fucked up. The first one didn't do anything because Gohan was never psyched to let out his rage.
I don't think Gohan really fucked up, I think Gohan was put through so much emotional pain that his reaction was natural. That's why Goku was still very proud of him when he died.
The first speech was probably necessary too, Gohan would have been hesitant and doubtful without it. With that one, Gohan knew everything in a matter of seconds.
>>
>>539384232
At what point did Goku actually connect with his son emotionally? He only saw power in him and told him to do his best. Again, they all almost died and they got lucky.
>>539384443
The training was poor, you can have an option between 1 or 2 but both are lesser than 3.
>You can't train emotions, that's retarded.
You unironically literally can.
>He wasn't, there just was 0 alternative where they don't actually all die.
He literally was oblivious to Gohan's issues. That's what his reaction to Piccolo's speech is about. It wasn't just a bunch of hot air.
>16 delivered a great speech but if you think Gohan would have just lied down and let everyone die, you're obviously wrong.
Story wise, the entire point of the speech is that it lets Gohan unleash his rage. That's the way it's framed. Feel free to consider it bad writing, but Toriyama didn't write a good speech for it to be pointless because people dying anyway would have set off Gohan's rage; that's not how a dramatic story would work. Goku is never framed as being right; he acknowledges that he was wrong, and the story wants you to think he was wrong. It's a writing issue if you don't agree, which is understandable.

The villain isn't trying to kill all of them, he's hosting an event to prove his superiority and their win condition is for him to be entertained enough that he doesn't interrupt it midway before their only warrior can awaken his hidden strength. The senzu is absolutely meaningless, there are no revives that can help in any way and half of the people that showed up are utterly useless and a waste of senzus in the first place.

>"Hey son, I trust you. I trust you so much I'm going to help out the guy trying to kill you. You go this kid!"
That's not what happened. I literally posted the pages and the senzu shit was swept away the second Gohan powered up and everyone knew Goku meant business.

>Goku considered ganging up on Cell
Never happened. Wouldn't have worked.
>Even that isn't enough and Gohan needed 16's pep talk to transform
Canonically wrong. 16 just took the bullet for someone else. Pic related

>his plan was still retarded
There was literally no other plan and telling Gohan about it wouldn't have helped.
>relied on only one specific factor, that Cell would be interested in Gohan's potential and focus only on Gohan
And guess what, Goku was right. He knew Cell's personality and taunted him with speech and the senzu. He got what he wanted.

The only miscalculation was Gohan needing to see OTHERS suffer to truly get angry. It's only that.

>At what point did Goku actually connect with his son emotionally
Are you retarded? Goku connected with his son all the damn time. Dragon Ball is a series that rarely bothers with these things but you can point out scenes of emotional bonding/respect/love between Goku and his family in every big arc. I can post them if you want.

Hell, they spent some of the days to rest and have family picnics. I suspect Goku felt he would die.

>You unironically literally can.
Dragon Ball isn't a series about learning to control your testosterone to get angry on command or something. It has never been a thing and was never considered.

>Story wise, the entire point of the speech is that it lets Gohan unleash his rage. That's the way it's framed
It's the trigger. That doesn't mean it was the only possible trigger, that's your headcanon. Cell is very clear >>539385796
Gohan was about to erupt. It's that simple. That panel is as unambiguous as it gets.
>>
>>539385346
>Was it a bad assumption though? Did he drop him there defenseless?
It unironically was a bad assumption because Goku failed to understand it would have been effective because he didn't understand Gohan.
>he knew Gohan knew what power he banked on, and Gohan had shown that power while training with his father in the room of spirit and time.
But he forgot to actually get Gohan to tap into the power, which he couldn't do when push came to shove. He never trained Gohan to tap into his rage; he just saw that Gohan COULD tap into it and decided "yep good enough."
>There was no way to prepare him for it.
We know SSJ2 and rage based transformations CAN be tapped into, but Goku failed to help Gohan tap into his rage. In fact, a good amount of Piccolo's training in the Saiyan saga if I remember correctly was helping him tap into his rage, but I might be wrong here.
>The first speech was probably necessary too, Gohan would have been hesitant and doubtful without it. With that one, Gohan knew everything in a matter of seconds.
But it wasn't good enough. Instead of Gohan being oblivious that he had to tap into power to beat Cell, he was left knowing that he could, but couldn't do it.

Goku could have told Gohan he's relying on Gohan's own damn potential and tried to find ways for Gohan to use it that don't rely on Gohan getting killed for it.

Yes, because then he doesn't get to stew in panic for a week and actually saw firsthand he's stronger than Goku and can handle Cell.
>Goku could have told Gohan he's relying on Gohan's own damn potential and tried to find ways for Gohan to use it that don't rely on Gohan getting killed for it.
Which would have just wasted time and got them killed because there IS no other way outside Gohan seeing OTHER people get killed for it.
Should Goku have brought Chichi and killed her in front of Gohan for his training?

It was a gamble. Nothing is certain. It was a reasonable gamble and Goku didn't ace it but he did good enough that, indeed

It just so happened that Gohan was a bit late and Cell had to torture the others for that. That's the miscalculation. Everything else was perfect. Meanwhile, Piccolo

But somehow nobody brings up Piccolo misunderstanding Gohan or failing to support him at his time of greatest need. I don't blame him for that but somehow ONLY Goku gets blamed for a very small miscalculation.

>But he forgot to actually get Gohan to tap into the power
There was no way to do that other than putting him into circumstances so extreme he turned into a school shooter.

Took Goku and Vegeta 7 years to get there. Again, if Goku needed Gohan to get so angry he'd start torturing his enemies, that's because the situation was fucking desperate. And it was. Pic related.

>Goku training Gohan to tap into his rage
This never happened in any part of Dragon Ball.

Piccolo trained Gohan for 1 year and he was already banking on Gohan's rage. Well guess what, Gohan was not only unable to properly use his rage, he even failed to attack Nappa normally when they had that setup with Krillin. Did Piccolo fail to emotionally train Gohan? Did he fuck up? Is everyone in the Dragon Ball universe unable to muster their emotions? Lol. Maybe some things can't be trained, at least not there.

>Spending time with your son is not connecting with him. Goku never really knew about Gohan's issues. This is clear.
What issues? You should be watching less Linkin Park AMVs, retard. Gohan never really had "issues" and Goku and Gohan always had near perfect understanding and connection.

>>539386789
>It quite literally is, what do you think Super Saiyan is?
Super Saiyan MADE them angry, but they didn't control their anger for it. In fact it's the opposite, they had to work to suppress their anger, which is exactly the contrary of what Goku needs Gohan to do.

Goku literally says "I knew it" later.
Piccolo was wrong multiple times in this arc. At the end of the day, it was Goku and Gohan's bond that saved the day, and nothing else.

>Why would Toriyama include something like that when 16 could have just been crushed and everyone moved on as Gohan went into his rage?
Because it's more compelling narratively? Because it avoids killing a random Z Team member?

Why would Toriyama write this panel >>539385796 including Gohan's hair rising up if the intent was not to show "he's almost there"?

>The senzu is absolutely meaningless
They brought the senzu along in case something goes wrong, so they expected an use out of them.

>That's not what happened. I literally posted the pages and the senzu shit was swept away the second Gohan powered up and everyone knew Goku meant business.
The narrative ignoring a retarded decision doesn't make it less retarded.

>Never happened.
It did. When Piccolo spelled out Gohan is just afraid when getting killed Goku told Krillin to give him a senzu and was about to attack with the rest, it's just that Cell put an end to that.

>Wouldn't have worked.
Yeah, but Goku realized he fucked up so bad that he was going to try anyway.

>16 just took the bullet for someone else.
16's pep talk was about Gohan accepting that fighting is not wrong and letting his emotions go free, him being killed was the final nail needed. So Goku's plan is so horrible that Gohan still wasn't on the right emotional state to unleash his power, and it got the one being who can't be resurrected killed. Congrats...

>There was literally no other plan and telling Gohan about it wouldn't have helped.
DB isn't just rage boosts. You can train to obtain new transformations that aren't just get angry. Fact Goku figured out how to get SS2 without seeing someone killed in front of him, and even got SS3, shows there are other ways.

>And guess what, Goku was right. He knew Cell's personality and taunted him with speech and the senzu. He got what he wanted.
He was right about Gohan's potential being necessary, he was so wrong about how it could be obtained everyone else almost got killed for it.

>It's only that.
That's a massive miscalculation, quite a retarded one since he saw Gohan only unleashing his power when someone else was getting killed.

>Yes, because then he doesn't get to stew in panic for a week and actually saw firsthand he's stronger than Goku and can handle Cell.
And could have trained with Gohan in a way that showed Gohan was the stronger one. Telling Gohan he was the plan B all along is a lot of pressure to put him right before he has to fight for his life.

>Which would have just wasted time and got them killed because there IS no other way outside Gohan seeing OTHER people get killed for it.
>Should Goku have brought Chichi and killed her in front of Gohan for his training?
Transformations can be achieved with other means. Gohan himself got SS1 without seeing anyone dying in front of him.

They had an extra year to try, but Goku was overconfident in his plan and decided to not bother. If they tried for that extra year, and failed, then I would give more leeway to Goku's plan (Though him vagueposting about it is still a massive dick move), but Goku felt like not bothering.

>They brought the senzu along in case something goes wrong, so they expected an use out of them.
And they did use them. Well, they used 1 in a way that mattered (taunting Cell) and wasted like 4 or 5 of them on jobbers.

>The narrative ignoring a retarded decision doesn't make it less retarded.
That's not the narrative ignoring a decision, that's you ignoring what the narrative is saying. The narrative is clear: this senzu vs no senzu debate is meaningless. There was only one thing that mattered at that point and it was Gohan's strength. And it works in universe because Cell was so obscenely strong the senzu didn't matter. They were at his mercy from the beginning and entertaining him even a little bit more was worth one, or multiple senzus in fact.

>When Piccolo spelled out Gohan is just afraid when getting killed Goku told Krillin to give him a senzu...
Yes...
>and was about to attack with the rest
... no...
Goku was about to save Gohan from Cell. That's all there was. They had no plan of defeating Cell by ganging up on him. EVERYONE knew it was meaningless because Cell could kill them all at any point. It wasn't even close.

>Goku realized he fucked up so bad that he was going to try anyway.
Goku was about to jump into the fray to save his son from being killed. Can you understand that, you soulless redditor?

>You can train to obtain new transformations that aren't just get angry
That's not how this arc worked. It was 100% about Gohan's potential and nothing else. No other solution was on the table, period. It took Goku and Vegeta 7 years to get there in the first place.

>he was so wrong about how it could be obtained
You're retarded. Goku was right and he even says so. It's so incredibly obvious.

Which is why Goku did a speech that made Gohan confident. Literally all your alternatives would have been at best a waste of precious time.

Yeah, after the first guy unlock it the normal way and the rest of the team gets years to analyze it and get it offscreen.

Would have done nothing except wear out Gohan and probably make things worse as Goku himself said, the extra year had 0 benefit.

Even though the execution is/was half assed, it's still the only DB fighting game (no WoW combat like DBO, or rock/paper/scissors shit like UT) with CAC, and to top it off it has Frieza's race and humans.

Lmao. Sure let their friends die I guess.

>And it works in universe because Cell was so obscenely strong the senzu didn't matter.
And even then you still don't give it to the villain. They have limited amount of senzu and Goku used one of them in a villain for a fair fight.

>Goku was about to save Gohan from Cell. That's all there was. They had no plan of defeating Cell by ganging up on him. EVERYONE knew it was meaningless because Cell could kill them all at any point. It wasn't even close.
>Goku was about to jump into the fray to save his son from being killed. Can you understand that, you soulless redditor?
Why do you talk like ganging up on Cell means Goku isn't trying to save Gohan? Plan isn't working, Gohan could die for real, time to attack. At the bare minimum, Piccolo was also planning to attack (He was taking off his weighted clothing).

>That's not how this arc worked. It was 100% about Gohan's potential and nothing else.
And said potential has other ways to be accessed. SS1 was a form that Goku only obtained when seeing Krillin die, but later Vegeta and Gohan himself got the form without such sacrifices. Something being obtainable under extreme conditions doesn't mean it's the only way to be obtained. They had an extra year to try. If it failed, Goku was backed into a corner but still felt confident Gohan could do it, I would find the plan less frustrating (vagueposting aside), but they had more time to try other means and didn't bother.

>No other solution was on the table, period. It took Goku and Vegeta 7 years to get there in the first place.
And Gohan's potential outclasses both of theirs'. Just because it took them 7 years, doesn't mean Gohan would need that much time.

Maybe let's not give a senzu to Vegeta, Trunks, Piccolo..? Actually maybe just get Dende to heal those guys, Goku can even teleport them there. They wasted the senzus for nothing. And that doesn't make them retards, that's just the plot taking one or two shortcuts here and there. Senzu and healer (Dende) management wasn't what the plot was going for here, and you're the only autist stuck on it.

>And even then you still don't give it to the villain
You do if you want the villain to take the bait instead of getting annoyed and killing you all

>Why do you talk like ganging up on Cell means Goku isn't trying to save Gohan?
There are two different things. One is Gohan being bearhugged to death by Cell, and Goku tried to stop that. Another is everyone trying to kill Cell by 7v1ing him, and it's hopeless and Goku knows it and isn't trying to do that. I'm pretty that wouldn't be his plan after he saved Gohan, he'd probably try to take some time to help Gohan get in the right mood.

>And said potential has other ways to be accessed
Not here. If Goku went all in on that and made it clear and explicit it was their only hope, then it was. Your retarded fanfictions don't matter. The narrative is clear here, Goku hit a wall, he can't torture his body to get real gains anymore, all he can do is bet on Gohan. The extra year meant jackshit.

>Which would have wasted time compared to making Gohan stronger.
Goku already felt they were as strong as they could go, and they trained a few times (offscreen) after leaving the HTC. One extra training session that makes it clear Gohan is the stronger one wouldn't waste time.

>Which is why Goku did a speech that made Gohan confident. Literally all your alternatives would have been at best a waste of precious time.
Why is telling someone ahead of time what he's planning a bad idea? It's not like Goku telling Gohan earlier means he can't show confidence in Gohan. Goku only told Gohan (and the audience) the plan that late for meta reasons, so everyone finds out what Goku was planning together, but in-universe that's iffy.

Thinking of it, that's a dumb issue with Androids saga and not just Goku. Trunks also tells Goku nothing about the a androids besides "they're too strong", and that's for meta reasons, so the readers find out alongside the characters what the androids can do, even if it makes no sense for Trunks' to explain things so poorly (Conveniently, that allowed Toriyama to replace 19/Gero with another type of androids instead of having to make another absorption type).

>Would have done nothing except wear out Gohan and probably make things worse as Goku himself said, the extra year had 0 benefit.
It's not like it would be a training to become stronger, just trying to access a new form. But hey, if that can make Goku look less incompetent I'll accept it.

>did you forget the 'Rest well' part of the Turtle School?
I always find that part funny since Goku's training session for Namek was essentially "Get himself almost killed multiple times for a week and become stronger than ever!" (Although he did rest on the day right before getting to Namek at least). But again, if it can solve the whole "Could use HCT to try to access the form" then there's only Goku's vagueposting to annoy me, that sucks less.

Yeah, after the year of training, at which point doing anything more would be overstraining.
>Why is telling someone ahead of time what he's planning a bad idea?
Because then they have to deal with a week worth of anxiety over the situation, instead of just being pep talked on D-Day after already seeing they can do it.
>It's not like it would be a training to become stronger, just trying to access a new form
It would be overstraining regardless, you can't separate the form and the body, also it was a form they had no clue even exist, Goku only knew about Gohan's hidden power.
>I always find that part funny since Goku's training session for Namek was essentially "Get himself almost killed multiple times for a week and become stronger than ever!"
He only did that for a week, not for 2 years.
