Let's be real. The reason Gotenks and Gohan were epic fails were because Toriyama wanted DBZ to go back to being 'The Goku Show'. Same with Super. At least ToP let other characters pretend to be relevant.

No, it's because if you actually watched it when it aired on tv and didn't have the convenience of binge watching on streaming platforms, Buu saga had AWFUL pacing and writing. It's way more tolerable now when you don't have to wait a week or more for an episode.

Buutenks has to be my favorite form of Buu. It still makes no sense why Gohan didn't kill regular Super Buu in the first minute. With the knowledge of him killing Chi Chi, Videl, Ox-King, etc., and from his fight with Cell where he should've learned that dragging on the fight has consequences, he should've killed regular Super Buu immediately 🤦🏾♂️

actually absorption was a little different then turning them into candy, when he eats people they die, with the exception of fat buu because being broken in to bits doesn't destroy him, but the absorption technique just stores them in his body and gives him attributes of the absorbed individual, so tehnically the only person buu absorbed through eating was fat buu, the rest were just killed

Idk if y'all noticed but when buutenks and gohan were squaring off, it looked exactly like when vegeta and goku were squaring off in the saiyan saga. They even did the same battle stances.

The thing with Gohan. He has the power but what separates him from Goku is Gohan is a mental weakling… always afraid, always letting the battle dragged on when he reaches a new level.

And if it wasn’t obvious when Buu absorbs someone he takes on the look of his most powerful absorbed victim.
Most speculate that his absorption is an additive so his power has most likely been doubled, because Buu and Gotenks were about equal. Not to mention the little bit that Piccolo added as well.
Impressive that Gohan could hang at all with the likes of that. Even if Buu was probably just playing around at first.
Better than in the manga where Buu kicks the shit out him almost immediately.

There is no official source for power levels after the Frieza saga, that I know of any way so correct me if I’m wrong.
Seems like people tend to pull these numbers and multipliers out of nowhere. Or use unofficial guide books that Toriyama most likely never read nor used as a model in DBZ.

I can finally say it and it’s that I believe that this is the real reason why ppl down talk the buy saga salty gohan fans mad toriyama did him dirty
Darren Metts
2024-08-21 20:59:11 +0000 UTC
yeah probably looking at power scaling videos etc and the multipliers. but they dont make much sense to begin with. Hes alot stronger but 10x is like Ricoome vs Frieza level and i dont think the difference is that high.
Robin C

He was stronger than SSJ3 Goku at the time, but where did you get 10× from? Or are you speaking figuratively?
Hitrule
2024-08-21 12:33:44 +0000 UTC
This version of gohan is called ultimate gohan. He was literally 10x stronger then ssj3 goku. Which is no surprise he's keeping up with this buu.

No, I don't care about fusion. The whole fusion thing was dumb in my opinion. It was useless.

It's really truck and goten fault, piccolo and Gohan told them not to go and everytime they don't listen then something bad happened

Plus buu's healing ability, Gohan got good blows in even knocked the breath out of him with a kick but all Buu does is recover while Gohan gets weaker.
Bob
2024-08-21 03:31:51 +0000 UTC
1. Buu can heal. 2. Buu wasn't playing around in the beginning, they were almost equal. 3. When Buu started using Piccolo's mind games on Gohan he started to lose and get sloppy 4. When Gohan get's injured he can't heal, Buu gets an advantage. It's like going up against someone with the same strength as you but every punch you take hurts and every punch you give back they heal from it. 5. Better than what Goku would of been able to do 🤷

Well understandable but Buu had abilities to get stronger so Gohan strength didn't matter. Buu was suppose to be the first villain to throw away the transformation surpass villain cliche.

Buu was grilling Gohan the whole fight: "he doesn't, in fact he wonders why you let me take him, Piccolo isn't impressed, he thought you were smarter, and trunks think you're a cowardly deserter just like your father" LOL

It’s got to be that saiyan dna, makes them overconfident at the worst times when they have the upper hand.

Super Buu got into his head with those remarks. Plus the PTSD from Gotenks and Buu being absorbed threw Gohan off. He doesn't have the mental fortitude to brush off comments like Vegeta or either Goku.

“I’m tougher than Gotenks, and smarter than Piccolo”
Piccolo inside of Buu “tf did he say?!”

2024-08-20 22:02:52 +0000 UTC
Also why are you surprised by Gohan fumbling here he almost made the SSJ2 transformation mean nothing back when he fought Cell, but that time Goku had to save his sorry butt by sacrificing himself.

May favorite form of Buu, down right scary.
The trash talk that Buutenks is able to throw at Gohan to demoralize him because of Piccolo. Makes it so much worse than Gohan just getting a physical beat down.
Whiskeysour
2024-08-20 21:30:35 +0000 UTC
You'd think that after his fight with Cell, Gohan would've learned not to play with his enemies when he's got the upperhand. But if the Z fighters did that, I suppose we'd have nothing to watch.

Poor Gohan sells so hard here and never ever recovers in the franchise. Toriyama really hated Gohan for some reason and it showed here and in Super.

Sigh even tho Gohan fumbled the bag here I will cut him some slack because he was not aware of Buu’s ability to absorb others.

NGL this episode pissed me off so bad. Gohan's whole transformation meant nothing, it was thrown away smh. The only best parts coming up next for me was the main end fight, that was epic, much better than the whole fusion thing.
