If you count Gohan, Trunks, 17, 18, and Tien as humans, which they all are to some degree, he's def not the strongest of his species. He is way up there though, and 7th place isn't even close, but special K is for sure not the strongest.

Gohans half saiyan, 17 and 18 use infinite energy cybernetics for their combat power - none are comparable to Krillin.

Tien though, totally. Toriyama has come out and said Krillin is the strongest human (I believe), so he either forgot about Tien or were just supposed to understand that Krillin is stronger than him despite Tien being far more dedicated to training and facing down bigger threats.

C'mon Tien? K Dog would hose him. Destructo Disc his three-eyed ass in half. But yeah the robots and the half-Saiyans don't count, that's cheating.

Maybe. I'm pretty sure Tien mopped the floor with him in DB, but that was a long time ago. I don't think either of them have enough feats in Super to definitively say who would win, but Tien is consistantly more dedicated to training and has an even trickier arsenal of techniques, so I'd put my money that ways.

And being half human is still being human. That's genetic diversity, which is not cheating.

Being able to go super sayan is cheating tho. Pan would probably count better, given she's 3/4 human

Tien vs krillin is kind of debatable, but they still both bald, along with Roshi, so....

Can we all just agree that Abridged is the best way to rewatch the show? Abridged Vegeta is my spirit animal.

[–] ZC3rr0r@lemmy.ca 2 points 12 hours ago

At this point it's practically the official dub. As it should be, because it's hilarious.

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 7 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

It's a masterpiece of fan art. It's the best way to watch that story, period.

Abridged Vegeta is my spirit animal.

Man has the personality of an ornery housecat. What's not to love?

[–] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 5 points 14 hours ago

It started out as a parody and then just turned into one of the better dubs of the show.

The beginning is rough but it comes into its own quickly.

I am not enough of an Otaku to have this debate to any sort of conclusion; I'll take your word for it. I do have one question though: if we discount the Saiyan hybrids and androids, what puts Tien over the top?

[–] kelpie_returns@lemmy.world 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Three eyes = 150% as cool and that's all I've got tbh

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

That's 50% more eyeballs than Krillin, and Tien has a nose. Plus, he can turn triangles into squares, now that I think about it. That math checks out.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

Yeah but all these squares make a circle. You ever think about that?

Fuck.
