    How strong is Goku really? Are Dragon Ball characters really that strong? If so why are the weight numbers given to them always to low? Is Akira Toriyama trolling us or is Goku not as strong as we think?

      6:36 why did you ignore Super where they literally dropped of clothes that would just dig into the Center of the planet? That would also be considered Planet weight and they did it in Base and also trained with it instead of just lifting. That scene literally makes his feat much much more crazier than what Superman did since these clothes must be multiple times heavier than the planet itself if it digs right into the ground. As we know Objects can balance on other Objects even if they´re couple times heavier and lets not forget the Gravity on Beerus his planet 💀 So we went from weird 40ton to probably 15000+ sextillion Tons. Dragonball truly is weird and inconsistent

      Actually, it's very easy to explain. Goku regulates his ki unconsciously, and he is very precise with it. He didn't expect to need to increase his ki to pick up a simple apple. Plus, he actually does lift it once he realizes. If you really want to be technical. 10x Gravity means 10x more every part of your body. Organs, blood and all. That's very very different than lifting a dumbbell of that weight.

We can at least explain the Earthlings easily, in that Human organs aren't designed to be able to function at higher atmospheric pressure, so even if you could lift twice your own body weight with ease, being in 2x gravity would be hell because your body isn't designed for it. Your heart would be under so much more effort, breathing would alone be harder, and it's doubled weight minimum on every square inch of your body; it's twice as hard to do ANYTHING.

    From how many Colossal Titans could actually fit within all the walls surrounding Paradis to Dyspo's feat of being faster than light somehow being something super amazing in late-DBS just goes to show that most authors are writers and artists first and mathematicians tenth... and for good reasons. The higher you scale something, the harder it becomes to visually - and consistently - depict such grand moments while still keeping it grounded and realistic. Dragon Ball's world never struck me as something Toriyama carefully crafted together with intricate lore and characters: if he needed cyborgs stronger than a space dictator, he'd do it; If there's a grey alien as strong as some top gods, then there is one. With current media so obsessed with worldbuilding and lore, Dragon Ball sticks out a like a sore thumb where new characters and ideas get introduced for one saga... and then are forgotten for decades once a new storyline rolls in. Expecting consistency in regards to feats and/or statements in a series like this will leave one but a sobbing mess if you dare to start powerscaling and not resort to reciting the old mantra of "Just an anti-feat, just an anti-feat, doesn't count!"

    It was actually confirmed people like King Kai or Supreme Kai can alter or add gravity to their planets in their realms so even if it was just 40 tons you could literally say that King Kong was adding more gravity to the already 40 tons Joseph makes sense given the fact that his Planet definitely has a higher gravity sense of gravity which would definitely mean heavier things would more than likely weigh more especially considering they could just add gravity to it we literally saw Supreme Kai do this and it was mentioned that something pretty much anyone as a high status can do basically you have to be a kai at least

    For the 40 tons that Goku has difficulty carrying, it depends on lots of things, we don't know the gravity of the planet, we're going Gohan as a great sayaman to carry a plane that weighs much more than 40 tons, also it depends on the way the load is carried, I can lift 240 in deadlift, but I cannot lift this same load in deadlift or squat, and I think that I would have a lot of difficulty moving if we spread 100kilo over my body.

      Yea, one of the major feats we saw, was the fight between Jackie Chun and Krillin. It was over in a flash, and they had to reenact their fight in the most hilarous scene.
      However, we don't know if this really happened or was just a joke of the two, but given the feats we see before that, like the After-Image Technique (Phantom Star) Goku and others used several times.
      But the car lift/throw in the first episode should have increased the powerlevel of all stronger characters in the series by far. I think Tao Pai Pai, and maybe General Blue, where the only other Characters that showed their immense physical strength, if I remember correctly.

    This is a topic I've long been passionate about, so this video made my day beyond what I can express in a comment section. I'd also like to add that, as far back as the 21st Tenkaichi Budoukai, Goku has exceeded light speed, as he ran to Rôshi from Tenshinhan's Taiyôken, grabbed Rôshi's glasses, and ran back to where he originally stood, all before the light faded. As for my favorite feat of strength, I'd have to say that's SS4 Goku benchpressing a literal tectonic plate to keep a city from collapsing, which is on the scale of quintillions of tons. Eat that, Superman.
    Edit: My final sentiment was more of a, "You ain't the only one, Superman," not a, "Goku can but you can't, Superman."

      I loved that bit. He lifted half a city with the dense Earth underneath. Kinda how people say he "struggled" to push back a building that was falling. It wasn't him struggling, they should look at it like this. Goku in his small child body was able to hold the building, push it back with his tiny arms WITH nothing to push off of like a ground. He wasn't struggling there, it was him trying not to break the goddamn glass that is in clear view. So, to get better ki control he goes SSJ4 and instantly plops a roughly 200.000 - 350.000 ton (judging by normal a skyscraper's weight) skyscraper back into place. It was showing how good his ki control is. I feel like people didn't even watch the full episode cause after that he lifts half a city with the Earth underneath it easily, imagine how dense that shit is.

      To further go into it. There's also infinites between each and every number we have. The difference between 1 and 2, can actually be an infinite range because 1.XXX can go on forever. You can break a single number into an infinite number of pieces, .001 would be one hundredth of 1. But you can expand that concept to any degree.

And I agreed with them. I compared the Infinite Void to an empty room where the floor hasn’t been finished and measured, as the idea of shaking emptiness is bonkers.

    Maybe we can explain it away as Goku and the others training without their ki. As Toriyama said, their muscle strength has a limit and then they power themselves with ki to get even stronger. Goku can just be "turning off his ki" and is just doing muscle training.

    • @gamgamesplayer4506
      @gamgamesplayer4506 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Exactly. He didn't get math wrong. The characters very rarely go full power in the anime, so it's really hard to see how strong the characters are because they are never at full power on training, as doing it will just make it cost more ki and not give any better results. These "Goku 0.001% power" stuff is real. Also, you must consider the transformations multipliers.
      With all that considered, lets see how much % goku would have to struggle with 40 tons but be able to lift the earth
      According to research, earth's weight is 5.972.000.000.000.000.000.000 tons
      Goku was struggling with 40 tons
      40 tons x 400 (ssj3) = 16000
      5.972.000.000.000.000.000.000/16000 = 3.732.500.000.000.000.000
      100 divided by 3.732.500.000.000.000.000= 0.0000000000000000026791695
      Considering ki can be concentrated to multiply the power level even more, and considering that explosive power doesn't need as much energy as the one needed to carry such weight, we can assume the minimum percentage goku was using there is somewhere around 0.0000000003%
      We can see that this is not a joke as goku can get hurt by a gunshot in super, where he is a billion times stronger at minimum on base compared to when he won against freeza, which could destroy a whole planet

    On the flying g force thing. The reason high g forces are dangerous is because a part of our bodies are undergoing acceleration while others aren't. Accelerating object pushes against our skeleton which pushes against our squishy organs which can obviously cause problems. If that acceleration was unanimously applied to every molecule in our body, then you essentially wouldn't feel a thing because nothing internally is being jostled about.
    It's pretty reasonable to assume that ki flight works like this seen as it's a nebulous power that exists within the whole body and soul. If it were explained that ki flight specifically pushes someone's feet and only their feet then g forces would be significant.

      Exactly! In that moment with the 40 ton weights his base form was struggling, which was the point. Soon as he went ssj they went to become weightless. That's when goku figured out how to get stronger. It wasn't the transformations, granted the boost is helpful. It was their base form strength determined how strong their transformations became.

    The problem isn't inconsistency or author being clueless (although Toriyama is arguably both), it's fans trying to view STORIES as if they are some kind of RPG or fighting game with hard stats. Dragonball fans in particular are so obsessed with their characters strength, they sometimes don't even care about the story quality as long is "new shiny strong" is presented. Which pushes DB further downhill into being an uninspired repetitive screaming fest with new ultimate strongest ever guy being revealed every other week. Can't really blame Toriyama tho, as long as fans are content with subpar writing and endless powercreep he has no reason to improve anything.

    I figured that the lifting 40 tons feat was without enhancing his body with ki, so that was just pure saiyan muscle. Remember that without actively using ki, even someone as strong as Goku can get fodderized by a random freeza grunt laser weapon, when in the previous movie he was trading blows with Beerus and the two of them were collectively shaking the whole macrocosm that is the infinitely sized universe 7 universe, plus its afterlife (which is many times larger that the physical universe itself), and the supreme Kai planet that can orbit said afterlife like it’s a moon or something.

    Maybe ki really is the answer to all this inconsistency. Besides obviously the writers and artists not being mathematicians or scientists themselves. An in-universe explanation could just be that DBZ characters have Ki levels that just are constantly changing and although you can train and improve your ki control through hard work and skill there is also a bit of randomness or the character could just be caught off guard and not be focusing their ki or even they could just be having a bad day and the energy just isn't flowing like it should be. ect. Something as vague as Ki can easily be explained away through a thousand different ways for being inconsistent.
