Gohans masenko vs Tien's Kikoho; nappa fight

gohans madenk was the highest reading until goku got there and for story telling reasons almost seems to imply that it was the strongest amount of ki used yet.

however no scouter was in use for any other attack prior.

given the reactions and what we know about the attack, was Tiens Kikoho stronger?

Also, what about chiaotzus self destruction? or the way Piccolo reacted to krillins huge attack unsplit?

Was gohans attack overhyped in context of everything else we saw?

Tien's Tri-Beam should have been much stronger. Nappa would have suffered severe damage if he didn't block it at the last second. While Nappa was able to flick Gohan's Masenko away without too much effort.

Edit: They weren't really that impressed, just by how much Gohan's power went up. It was no real threat, there wasn't any shock from them until they read 5,000 as Goku's suppressed power level.

You could argue that the Kikoho that Tenshinhan launched was a lot weaker than it would've been due to him being exhausted and near-death. Considering that it uses Genki, it would make sense.

Tri-Beam gave Nappa a scare while he met Gohan's Masenko cheerfully.

Didnt Nappa casually punched Gohan's Masenko like a volleyball? Even if stunged him a little

Tien'a KiKoHo flat-out shocked Nappa & Veggie.

Former's case was "underestimation" at how a useless, ragged child could summon such power (via rage) & unleash it Full Force

Tien's case was absolute power display along "element of suprise" considering his forearm was sliced, survived 2-3 heavy blows of brute Nappa, emotionally broken due to Chaotzu's sacrifice & YET, dude managed to astound every freaking mfker at battlefield. Now dats called real power

Darn sure it musta eclipsed Gohan's Masenko by fair margin

Nappa tanked the Kikoho with nothing but cosmetic damage, and he was unprepared for it.

On the other hand, he at least admitted the Masenko made his hand sting, which to me is better than him straight up tanking a blast that he didn't know was coming until the very last second.

And he didn't cheerfully block the Masenko. He clearly put effort into deflecting it, and showed more aggravation from it than the Kikoho.

But imagine if Tien was at full power.

Masenko is a concentrated move that can be heavily amplified the longer the user charges. It doesn't use the user's life force, which makes it considerably weaker. In my opinion, Gohan got a 2-2.5x boost.

Kikoho (Shin) is a move that uses Tenshinhan's life force and can potentially kill him (which is did). His boost was probably 2-2.25x due to him being pretty weak at that point.


However, I'd also like to point out that Tenshinhan can massively improve the Kikoho the longer he practices with it and the stronger he gets. This is why he had such tremendous power when holding back Cell in the Cell arc.
The Masenko is more like the Kamehameha, where you can amplify it to a certain degree but never go past your own power.

But we're not talking about a full power Tenshinhan. We're using the one that actually fired the Kikoho.

It always felt to me like this fight was just one surprise after another for the Saiyans.

O, the 3-eyed guy defeated a saibaman.
O, the guy with the scars also defeated his one (before it jumped back up and blew himself up).
O, the little bald one has an attack which killed 3 saibamen at once.
O, the green one killed the last one without effort.
O, the dwarf just used a selfdestruct attack, this was a close one.
O, the 3-eyed guy "was still alive", had so much energy left and had such a good attack.
O, the little bald one has an disk attack we should dodge!!!
O, Kakarot is coming? Maybe it would be interesting?
O, the kid has power after all. What, 2800?
Huh, where is the kid? Kakarot?
Over 8000?????????
Why can't I kill you???????
So much energy, in one attack???????
Another one? He cut my tail!
F*ck, the kid has his tail again!!!!
A, my back, that f*cking fat one is back!
...
Defeated, how is it possible?



----

Vegeta (and Nappa) constantly underestimated their opponents, which is why they lost. I think there were multiple times they were surprised by the Earthlings, which was why they thought it would be fun and an interesting fight.

The Masenko (or at least the battle power of 2800) was a surprise for Nappa and Vegeta, it came from the kid who didn't show this yet. Tenshinhan's Kikoho also surprised them. How could an Earthling (known as a weak species), who lost an arm and received a bloody beating already, still has such a powerful attack?

IIRC Nappa blocked Tien's Kihoho in the last second, hence the "Whew, don't scare me like that". Given his surprise at that attack, I'll side with Tien's Kihoho being stronger.

He was almost dead though. Nappa could have just had his defenses lowered.

Nappa didn't block the Kikoho. He got hit by surprise with it and came out with the usual cosmetic damage.

He had his arms up guarding.
