38 KB Hulk v. Broly Anonymous 05/22/08(Thu)22:40 No.4222093  
Alright /v/, attempted to think out a Heaven vs. Hell a bit here.

Let's go with Broly vs. The Hulk, a battle of two beings who can pretty much keep getting stronger ad infinitum in much the same way.

Hulk's comes from his anger, and will grow stronger the angrier he gets, with no discernable top level as many comics have shown us. Broly doesn't necessarily have to be angry for his power to increase, but it speeds the process up. Basically for those who haven't watched any Broly stuff, once he goes Legendary SSJ, his power just rises continually. Which is why he is so feared and controlled, because it doesn't really have a cap. If he is left alone as a LSSJ for like, 40 years, his power will grow and grow and grow for 40 years. The problem being, his power doesn't grow slow at all. During the course of the movies, it becomes a thing where they can't drag the fight out because he'll become stronger than all of them in short order and really be unstoppable. His rage against Goku for shit only speeds this up, so they have even less time to beat him.

So, between Hulk and Broly, how would the fight go down? Hulk and Broly both have a sort of plot armor'd "that should have killed him, but since it made him angrier/took some time it didn't actually kill him" Both's power will just get bigger and bigger as time goes on. Assuming of course Broly did something to make Hulk rage forever like kill his wife by skull-fcuking and Hulk...I dunno, slapped him when they were in crib together as babies or some shit.

Hulk'd probably win, because Broly is certainly killable, he just has to pretty much do it before Broly starts ramping up. Then again, same might be said for Hulk.

Thoughts, /co/?

Broly > Hulk, sorry to say.
Even though Hulk is infinitely stronger than Broly, that's all the Hulk has.
Broly would be faster and while not strong enough to do any damage (or at least anything noticeable) he could still do something like use ki to blow him into the sun.
Broly cannot breathe in space, by the way, but he can create a shield around himself which lets him survive in space.

Well, the OP does say that Broly has SOME reason for super-anger at Hulk. Theoretically, let's say that Little Hulkie took Goku's place in history, so all the anger directed at Goku is at Hulk instead.

Beyond that, since Broly's isn't based on just anger, he doesn't necessarily need to be angry to keep growing stronger.

How does Broly have a limit? He's the Legendary SSJ. The whole reason they beat him wicked fast is because his power just keeps growing. It's not a level thing like SSJ1-4 or anything, it's something completely different.

This. Broly has to continually release energy so he doesn't explode. It's why he throws those ki blasts and sometimes just shoots that shit out like steam.

In a fight with the Hulk, it'd pretty much be equivalent to (as Broly keeps powering up) landing an extra blow with the strength of "a million exploding suns" behind it.

Also, speaking of power blasts, Broly has ranged attacks. That...could be bad.

Half and half. If you watch how he does it, it's actually kinda...interesting, as far as fighting styles go. He doesn't shoot from his palm like almost everyone in the DBZverse. He wings those things underhand or overhand like actually throwing shit. Also, he kinda just chucks it in that vicinty and never makes concentrated ki blasts. Most of his shots are simply a lot of blasts at once in a big spread.

Also, he almost never punches. All his hits are with the sections of his arms or legs. He only uses his hands to grab faces.

Moron. You're wrong. He shows the exact same signs as Trunks did when he went USS2, namely:
1. Spikey hair that is spikier than regular SS hair
2. Stronger aura (not made of lines, but of bolts of energy, like Trunks)
3. Huge gain in muscle mass (like Trunks)
4. Lack of pupils (like Trunks)

Broly was just a USS2. A powerful one compared to the other Saiyans, but a USS2 nonetheless.

Goku is the legendary Super Saiyan, by the way, because there IS no legendary Super Saiyan. There is a legend about Super Saiyans, but nothing else.

Yup. Then why don't Goku or the other Saiyans have that happen to them? Vegeta states that Saiyans have infinite potential when it comes to strength, yet they are the same size.

...because he's the Legendary Super Saiyan. His body doesn't work the same as the other Saiyans.

So how come as the battle goes on, he gets stronger and not weaker? When in SSJ Saiyans get weaker until they power down and can only remain SSJ for a limited time. If that were true, Broly would've also gotten weaker, not stronger, as time passed. Broly didn't get weaker. Watch the second movie as well. The dude has no limit to his SSJ-ness.

You're missing the point.

Broly has a base form, basic super saiyan, and a final super saiyan stage that is entirely separate from the ordinary progression stages.

It does not slow down like USS or USS2 does. It does have an immediate spike in power similar to each progressive stage of the super saiyan, but instead of leveling out or decreasing as time goes by, it continues to scale UP.

Dude shows up in 2 non-canon movies, does nothing but really say "Kakarot" and gets huge and destroys shit. Normally, shit like that in comics/anime (Doomsday, other big/huge strength guys) get frowned upon. But Broly is generally un-frowned upon. Whyzat?

I dunno.

Since they're movies, they have very little time for super-charging up. So it's just impressive that Broly doesn't even really have to do that, it just is an automatic thing. That and as someone mentioned earlier, he has a really weird fighting style.

Also, the fights in both movies are pretty cool. We're not expecting too much from DBZ. Just cool fights, and both of Broly's are pretty durned cool.

I like him because he mostly just pummels shit. There's few beam attacks, and practically no "zwee"-fighting at all. He just brutalises everyone with clotheslines, grapples and the scenery.

Also, the first film has none of that lining up to take turns fighting like happens so often in DBZ. Broly takes on Goku, Gohan, Trunks and Piccolo's co-ordinated assault without breaking a sweat.

In the second one, he wears Trunks like a little hat.

I like Broly because they had to cheat to beat him. In the first film he didn't take a lick of damage or pain until Goku used his plot-godhax at the end of the movie, and in the second one they had to use the dragonballs to beat him, when he was still injured from the fight in the previous film.

Okay, time to fill in what I said.
I will be using Marvels scale of power, 0-100, in terms of strength to make it simple. We will start with Goku, training with King Kai.
He started off at 10x earth gravity, and struggled for a bit before adjusting. His weight, according to the manga with his weights on, was 220 lbs. 10x that is 2200. At that point in the series, he could lift 1 ton in weight, putting him on the max human scale of strength. Not that much really.

So an Everlasting fountain of Energy that is for all purposes, untrained and fights in a brawler mentality, vs an Everlasting fountain of Strength that recently was forced to train againt people who could beat him.

Norm vs Norm, Broly can probably win, but with WWH, its not even a fight. They cancel each other out in raw power, and it comes down to a gladiator vs a street fighter. Hulk will actually do the smart thing down and break arms and legs to win the fight rather then classic "hulk smash"

That was his power level at rest. And his Kamehameha was much stronger (in efficiency, not overall power) then Goku's was. I'd argue that his powerlevel was a lot higher then that.

But yeah, even a baseline human could become able to kill the planet. If hulk got the DBZ training from hell, he'd quickly dwarf Broli or anybody else with his Gammaki.

I thought you were hiding the thread? Continuing on, will skip to the end.
Vegeta did enhanced gravity training, to the tune of 400-430x earth gravity. He went past that and nearly killed himself, making about 440 his max limit being able to stand, much less fight. At this point in the series, he was stated as being equal to Goku in terms of strength, with his traing weight being about 120-130 lbs. That equals 52500, taking average weight and gravity, or 50 odd tons. He and Goku could press a maximum of 50 tons at their reasonably recordable peaks.
This is not including their SSJ transformations, this is them at their base strength, disregarding red herring "power levels". They were middling level Marvel strength, half of the Abomination, the standard 100 strength.

Power level of around 100-200: Sufficient to destroy a moon with charge time.

Power level of 300-400: Sufficient to destroy a moon casually.

Around 20,000, it's plausible to destroy a planet with charge time.

At 1,000,000 or above, accidental planetary destruction is possible with a high enough yield attack, such as a full-power kamehameha.

However, regardless of the power level involved an individual must TRY to destroy a planet in order to actually do so -- except for Kid Buu, nobody casually uses attacks that can destroy planets.

Oh shit, someone with sense.
And to include the SSJ transformation, all available information points to it creating an increase of 4-5x physical strength initially, and petering of as additional levels are added usually +1x their base power. So SSJ4 Goku has a strength of 400 tons, give or take around 30 tons. That does not put him on equal standing with Superman, who is readily recorded at 600 ton press.
All of this compiled from official information released by the respective authors and franchise owners without the need to place any group on a pedestal over another.
So eat DB whores, your people are not as strong as you think.

And this applies to Broly how? He's not like the other saiyans so who cares what Goku's capable of or not. Not to mention judging power based on blowing planets up is just stupid. So Broly can blow up a planet--good for him. It's not a good way to measure his power, but why do we even need to? We already know he's insanely out of the league of the story characters.

And I said, this isn't based on power levels, this is based on their actions and accomplishments during the anime and manga itself. The power levels have just proven themselves to be a plot device past the introduction of the Ginyu Force, because the numbers just don't make sense with what they can DO.
And for that matter, the official RPG released back when the series was still not old as fuck stated Frieza's power level was around 4 million and Goku 4.5 million. I would honestly like to see this book you speak of so I can verify this bullshit.

Official numbers on characters end at the Frieza story arc, around 1.5million as per Goku and Frieza's power levels.

100-200 is where Master Roshi sits, which we know from the beginning of the series when he was scanned by Bulma. We know he can blow up a planet.

300-400 is the range that Goku and Piccolo sat in -- we know Piccolo could casually blow up a planet.

20,000 is ROUGHLY where Vegeta sat at the height of his power in the saiyan saga, and he CLAIMED to be able to blow a planet away.

I am generally inclined to believe that he could, since 20,000 is a tremendous leap from the casual moon-destroyers of 400ish, and the attack he claimed would do this was unusually slow even for DBZ if I recall correctly.

1,000,000 is my estimate on 'accidentally' blowing up a world, since it is much more than 20,000 and...

Because that's what Frieza could do. In all likelihood it actually comes much earlier than that, since Frieza's first form was the one that casually destroyed Planet Vegeta.

I should further note that Frieza more than likely had this sort of casual planet-destroyer because he was quite capable of SURVIVING this sort of an event, even when dismembered and near-powerless.

The only reason his deathball on Namek took so long is because he did it on the fly and after fighting for ages, IMO.

Yeah, the power levels got pretty meaningless. They were punching each other through mountains in the Frieza saga, and by the Buu saga, they're supposedly thousands of times stronger, but being punched through mountains still has pretty much the same effect. If they were really that much stronger, at that point you'd think they'd walk through mountains like a regular person walks through fog.

Even if Toriyama ditched numerical measurements of power levels, you still get comments like "He's thousands of times stronger than Cell ever was!" or "He's far stronger than anything I've seen before!" Yet the fights didn't seem all that functionally different in regards to being punched through mountains, size of craters left by attacks, etc.

My point is, it seems like at a certain point, the increased strength levels stopped really making that much difference.

well. in buu saga earth was beaten a lot before kid buu finished the job. 1/3 of the world majin buu blew up with kamehamaha. During gohan's fight ball of energy went through whole planet. there was a difference.

and during kid buu fight they were on gods' planet. much more resistant than earth.


anyhow. DBZ characters are thousand times physically weaker than supermen, hulks etc. but they can shoot nukes with their fingertips, lift stuff up with mere ki and use energy beams/balls to send stuff away from earth.

there wouldn't be much of a fight. either hulks gets a clean shot at brolly and rip him to pieces
or brolly shoots huge green ball obliterating hulk
or sends hulk to space with some greenish energy beam.

This is an important point, DBZ characters are much less focused on direct use of physical strength than Hulk or Superman. So even if Superman can lift more weight, that doesn't really mean he can do more damage than a DBZ character.

The problem with that is durability. What is their durability when it comes to direct blows? As it stands, they are still flesh and blood. Yajirobi sliced Vegeta clean thru his armor and flesh with no problems at all, Yet also showed Raditdz catching a rifle round.
Throwing ki blasts is usually held of on in DB because it is literally their life enrgy they are throwing away, meaning if it doesn't work they have wasted stamina better used later in the long haul. Assuming that a foe will hold off and allow someone to build up an attack powerful enough to one-shot them (idiocy), ki spam is far more dangerous and risk heavy than what most people give thought to.

I didn't mean Broly was compared to Cell, I just mean that with each saga, they indicate the new badguys are relatively far stronger than the last one. Yet the dynamics of the fights don't change that much.

For example, Goku punched Freeza against mountains, it seemed fairly painful. Two sagas later, where the comments indicate that the strength levels make that power level small-time, Vegeta is punching Goku against mountains, and it seems to hurt. But if they are like, exponentially stronger, Vegeta punching Goku should just push Goku through that mountain like, well, less than cardboard. My best explanation is that at some point, more fighting power stops adding to physical strength all that much. That would explain the mountain conundrum.

I would like to point out at this stage that Hulk doesn't actually need time to power up.

In the Buu Saga scene I'm thinking of, Vegeta has Goku pinned against a mountain and is pummeling him. This is one of those scenes where Vegeta was briefly at or near the top current power level and feeling awesome. Anyway, if two sagas ago, they punched people through mountains, and now, it's two cycles later of multiple "OMG UNIMAGINABLY POWERFUL COMPARED TO THE LAST GUY" jumps in power, Vegeta punching Goku hard while pinned against a mountain should push Goku right through that mountain like it was jello.

You're wrong again.

The Legend of the Super Saiyan is a tale of a Saiyan who achieved such great power that he was feared throughout the cosmos. Eventually, from utilizing all of his power, the strain on his body was far too great and he imploded.

That's the legend. A being of such great power that every entity in the known universe will tremble in fear as it breathes let alone inhales. Broly was born with an incredibly high power level. Feared as a potential threat, he was to be killed. His father intervened with a direct order from the King, was charged with high treason and executed on the spot. Or whatever.

The only thing worse than being a tripfag is being a tripfag and arguing with other tripfags.

It's really sad just how in depth this debate has gotten considering it's fucking DBZ

All of you seem to be forgetting about the speed element. The first English dub said that Raditz was "faster then light." Almost every fight after that they can't be seen by the naked eye.

Also, let's not forget the plothax that ki energy eventually became. It could stop things, trap things, cut, create matter, tear through the fabric of reality, power up physical blows, sexually gratify a woman, and of course the classic blow shit up.

You forget one thing hulk has: poor writing. No Opponent of the Hulks will ever use any speed they have against him. Otheriwse they might win and the Hulktards will rage

Hulk is smart. Very smart. If someone is faster than him, he'll eventually think of a way to negate their speed. Not like the can klll him in the mean time.

No they just won't let a less popular character beat him. Spider man or captain America can dodge him all day, but put him against Gladiator or the silver surfer and he grabs them out of the air

Gladiators so fast that when the fantastic four and Thor were sped up millions of times he still kept pace with them using his superspeed.

Although when Stan lee wrote SS and the Hulk fighting, hulk was unable to even touch him.

Brolly STARTED out weaker then SSJ 2 but the powerup he got from nearly dying from the first fight boosted him past SSJ 2. He had to be killed by a SSJ 2 Gohan and SSJ Goten plus hax from Goku.
