Is anime goku MFTL?

I've heard a lot people say that anime goku is faster than light. One of the reasons they say this because the saiyan space pods are massively faster than light and king kai could follow their movement but couldn't follow frieza and goku fighting at one point.

And then there's this: Goku could dodge a lightning bolt in db in an anime scene. Average lightning bolt is 3,700 miles per second. Light is 186,000 miles per second. Kaioken is stated to increase abilities linearly. I know he didn't get only 2x faster from when he dodges the lightning bolt to his fight with frieza but just to make things quick and easy lets say that's how might faster he's gotten. That means KKx20 goku could react to something going 148,000 miles per second. That's already pretty close to light speed and that's really low balling it

So what do you guys think? Is anime goku much faster than light in combat? Is there anything to counter these 2 arguments?

They've been MFTL+ since the Frieza Saga in the anime. King Kai could track both Goku's and the Saiyan's ships through space but couldn't keep up with SSJ Goku and Frieza fight.

Raditz dodged the Special Beam Cannon. He's faster than the speed of light.

Goku can. I am not sure if this counts but Goku is able to use IT technique, which allows him to 'travel as a mass of light'. It makes me wonder how fast of the speed light they'd have to move to perform the after image technique.

IT beats all speeds, it's instant, faster than even a gamma ray burst.

Yes they are, Goku's combat speed is FTL Frieza Saga and afterwards, King Kai can follow FTL space pods but can't follow SSJ Goku and 100% Frieza, what else do we need?

Sorry to bump such an old thread but I'm wondering about king kai not being able to follow goku and friezas movements. I heard that their power levels and namek was interfering something like that

Might be an anime only line. I can't find it in my manga. I assume this is SSJ Goku vs 100% Freezer?

I don't mind anime lines in this thread. Whether they're faster than light in the anime is what I'm wondering. I've heard people say that king kai couldn't track their movements because of namek interfering

Ah, yes. I would imagine that's true. The planet was on the verge of destruction and giving out a lot of static etc. Kaio followed them pretty much all the way, iirc.

That's a bad dub line, and nothing says that ki blasts travel at light speed. Clearly they don't.

Anyone else know whether namek was interfering with king kai trying to follow goku and friezas movements is true or not?

There's no way. Unless power levels and speeds don't correlate as directly as we thought. But if that was true then Gotenks would have had a way better speed feat in season 8
