Death Battle Calculated Ssj4 Goku at just over 2x the speed of light, i think it was 2.4x the speed of light. They calculated that by determining Goku's speed across Snake Way, then multiplying that up by 586x gravity, which is roughly equal to base Goku topping out at 40 tons, then multiplied that up by the Super Saiyan forms. I think it needs some work, but I think it is a close estimate. |

I don't think they are as fast as the speed of light, nowhere close, in my opinion and according to many facts. |

I decided a while ago they go one speed, and that's: Spoiler: click to toggle But seriously there's no way to know. Feats and statements contradict each other. Characters never give specific statements like this: Krillin:" Goku and Cell are moving at relativistic speeds!!" It's just: Krillin:"Goku and Cell are moving so fast i can't keep up!!"

There completly wrong and foolish the calculations of them first of all they take saiyan saga Goku to see his speed,and they said he was the same fast to stupid in the end of GT his million times faster than that,second go and check Base Goku with ssj2 Goku they have the same numbers if you take his base and make it x4000 which is the ssj4 multiplier you will see that his speed is over 237 times speed of light,so no wrong calculations😀 Oh and we have some statements about there speed we know Popo is faster tha lighting which is 0.5 speed of light by the manga we know it so I can say that Goku is MFTL😀 |

You don't know what the F*** you're talking about. They took Goku's training beyond the Saiyan saga into account. Base Goku topping out at 40 tons means he can withstand 586 times Earth's gravity. Which means he is 586x faster than he was in the Saiyan Saga. We know his raw power level was thousands of times more than it was in the Saiyan Saga but remember that Ki and strength and speed are not linearly connected. Uub had a crapton of ki when he faced Goku at the End of Z but he wasn't super fast. Conversely, Burter had the same power level as Jeice and Recoome but he was many times faster than they were. The problem with Dragon Ball is that there are few clearly defined feats of strength and speed for fans to use to decide who would win a battle between other fictional characters. Superman's strength and speed are clearly measured and calculated. A lot of DBZ character's strength and speed is up for debate with so few facts and so much fanboyism. |

Incredibly fast. Gotenks circled the Earth about six times in 30 seconds. |

I agree the calculations are worthless because, well, calculating something like this is never going to give reliable results. However, what you said is also wrong. Lightning is half the speed of light? When was this stated?
I saw no light speed travel there or anything hinting at it. We don't know how long it took Goku between the scans to get there. Even if it was ten seconds, that puts him pretty far behind light speed.
There is no time frame telling us how quick Gotenks did that. It could have taken him 20 minutes for all we know. |

Copy ninja: saw no light speed travel there or anything hinting at it. We don't know how long it took Goku between the scans to get there. Even if it was ten seconds, that puts him pretty far behind light speed. - planet nameke is bigger then Earth, Goku was on the other side of the planet and got there in a reaction, Fast enough to get freeza attention in striking vegeta. Not to mention you got SSj which is 50x |

Lighting speedi think this says that an average lighting is moving half the speed of light in part 3-4 not sure though😋or the comments of this page toTopic comments

Hang on, we've been over this before in several threads. I think even "The Most Powerful Anime Characters Thread." So, that being said, what's wrong with Wiz and Boomstick using the Snake Way theory and scaling it linearly? They acually determined that base End Goku (The one they used for the battle) was something like Mach 8200 and just went from there. That's just kinda ignoring the calculation. (And why are we still angry about this? We won the Wizard Magazine battle as a Super Saiyan, tied 1 to 1 right now, let it go brothers) And further more, the Anime version of the feat took about 7 seconds to circle Earth 12 times or so. That put Gotenks' max speed as a Super saiyan at about 151 million miles per hour. That's just under a 5th of what light speed is. So End of Buu we're talking near light, and if we scale linearly, then by GT we're talking Lightspeed and up. Also I think we talked about this, there's no such thing as "Combat speed." You can have Attack Speed, Super Cruise and Max Speed, but Max Speed is just that, maximum, and is used for highest movement (Like a Jet). Also like other airborne units, Attack Speed is lower. Take an F-22 for example. According to my fly boy brother in law, it's supposed to be somewhere just under or just above mach 2 or something (He was pretty vague about it, but from his implications he's used the thing on bombing runs at around mach 1.8 and some "dog fights" in the 2.2 region). And I do believe that "Super Cruise" Aka the speed that F-22s travel from target to target at without after burners is about mach 2.0. That being said, it makes a lot more sense to just move at high speed for travel without urgency, move at max speed with urgency, and attack at high speed with enough room to react and manuver. I mean, the difference between mach 2.5 and mach 2.2 is 230 mph. That's a big difference in reaction time. Ex: Moving at that speed, you'll pass an extra half mile every second you move, never the less react. So unless Goku has the brain of a Super Computer (And let's be honest, fighting genius or not, he's doesn't and can't possible calculate trajectories like that without STOPPING) he can't ATTACK at maximum speed. It's just not possible. So where was I? Oh yes. Saiyan Saga: Speed of Sound Plus Frieza Saga: Hypersonic Speed Android Saga: Ultra Hyper Sonic Speeds Buu Saga: Relativistic/Semi-Light Speed Baby Saga and Up: Speed of Light Plus Besides, Lightning's speed is inconsistent as previously mentioned and isn't really a great way to measure a character's speed unless we're talking about reflexes (I.E. "Lightning/Jedi Reflexes"). But that's about it. |

Death Battles' scaling is extremely just garbage. The only time anything goes lightspeed in GT is Trunks' spaceship. No character has ever gone lightspeed unless you bring in Instant Transmission (which is Instant). IF however you would like to bring a quote or a scene showing a character going lightspeed then please go ahead and show it. Also going off the anime Gotenks feat is extremely inconsistent, why did it take Buuhan roughly a minute or two to get to Goku if Buuhan>>>SSJ3 Gotenks? Ultra Hyper Sonic Speeds is the fastest id put someone in DBZ Edited by Goddess Ultimecia, May 3 2013, 04:53 PM.

But WHY is their scaling garbage? Everyone keeps saying it but never says WHY specifically. I just think that people don't dig Wiz and Boomstick. And as far as a "Quote" or "Scene" you got me on that one, it's conjecture based on linear power scaling. But there isn't a quote or scene that directly contradicts it. By GT they do a lot of goofing off and don't ever really seem to do anything full force unless they're fighting Super 17, or Omega Shenron. Probably a plot thing, but I digress. And as far as Buuhan vs Gotenks in speed... well Buuhan is just slower than Gotenks. That's it. I'm sure Chuck Lidel is probably stronger than you, but that doesn't mean you can out run the guy. Speed is relative. That's all. Vegeta admited that Gohan was "Faster" in GT (Faster than his Baby Counterpart who is presumed to be stronger than regular Gohan anyway). So yeah, Gotenks is probably just faster. Besides, if we calculate that out, even assuming that Super Buu was something like 100 miles away from them, that would put his movement speed at 12,000 mph to get the hundred miles in the 30 seconds it took for him to get there, which is BARELY above what base Goku was doing back on SNAKE WAY! So yeah, Buu's just slow as all get out, that's it. But we're on the same page as Z topping out at Ultra Hyper Sonic. |
