  • In this video, I go over Piccolo's new power up in the Dragon Ball Super Hero, called Orange Piccolo. A form that defeated Gamma 2 in one hit and pressured Cell Max, and theorize how strong he actually has become.

    I think Piccolo increasing his size against Cell Max is more for leverage. Kind of like lifting a mattress. You can be strong enough to lift it solo, but the size and lack of rigidness makes it awkward and difficult.

    I've always had a theory about Piccolo.
    I feel that his training being mostly meditation was building up his potential significantly. I feel he obtained all his power on his own, and Shenron merely unlocked it for him.
    More-or-less, if Piccolo didn't spend his time meditating and honing his Ki control, he wouldn't be nearly as strong as he is in his Orange form.
    It also explains why he has so much control over his form. I would say he's already mastered his Orange form, but I'm sure there are secrets/abilities yet to be revealed.

    To be honest….piccolo should be very eligible for god ki. I mean considering that he was once considered god as he is fused with kami and kami being able to travel back and forth between other world and such, id say that if anyone has the right to have god ki it’s definitely piccolo. That would be a great boost to him as it gives him something to work at with his new power and potentially letting him be on the level or past gonna.

      I would agree, but does it even matter at this point? God Ki has been a completely wasted concept that hasn't been explained or expanded, and doesn't seem to offer any real benefits, besides possibly being more potent than standard Ki. Aside from that, there seems to be little to no seperation between those who do and don't use it. It's just another example of the abject faliure of DBS to do anything interesting with the concepts it introduced. Instead of deepening the ideas it has, it just moves onto one after the other. But all of it remains pretty shallow as a result. Little I've seen has convinced me to care about god Ki, so I personally don't care...

    • @Peanutbutter_madden

      @@AndrewAce. What are you talking about? God ki is more efficient and last longer then regular ki. Yes it has been explain as its just god teir ki control and what’s there to expand? Goku and vegeta has reach insane heights with god ki alone as they are simply stacking it on super saiyan. That’s it….The truth is goku and vegeta are not strong at all, gohan, piccolo, frieza, gotten, trunks, universe 6 saiyan and broly are all more genetically stronger then goku and vegeta. They have to train day in and day out and even use god ki to be as strong as they are and then you have gohan and piccolo catching right up with out it….so if they had god ki they could be insanely stronger.
      No one in the t.o.p could truly beat ssgss except for they major powerhouses like hit, jiren, broly and frieza. Goku and vegeta was holding back constantly against many of the opponents. In the show you see goku use blue on many other people and many people see that and assume that he needed it, he didnt. He used it simply becuase it was more comfy to fight that what not becuase he truly needed it. In the t.o.p he used it many times but since that that a big battle royal where goku and vegeta needed to conserve power that plays a huge part. The final point is that ssgss can actually be weaker too, its god ki control so goku can fine tune just how strong the blue is, before we new what level of super saiyan he was using becuase of ssj 1 2 and 3 having differences but now its just….blue.

    • @AndrewAce.
      @AndrewAce. Před rokem +48

      @@Peanutbutter_madden And yet my point stands: What is the difference between characters who use it and characters who do not? The series doesn't show use one. Everyone is as strong as the plot needs them to be with or without it.
      Answer me this: How has the introduction of God Ki changed or added to the story, or even just the combat? What interesting thing has it done? How has it changed the dynamic? If this question has no answer after all this time, the writers have failed to make it count.
      1) No offense, but where is any of what you just claimed about god Ki being better explained in depth the series? I don't believe it is? We're just told that it's better, and meant to assume that it is because Goku and Vegeta use it to unlock more powerful forms. But we aren't told why it's better, and how it distinguishes it's users. There are plenty of people who don't have it that are on their level, and the idea of it being the next level of power seems to have been dropped all together. Simply saying that Goku and Vegeta a just really weak, but it puts them on everyone else's level like steroids just doesn't do it for me. It sounds like a bad excuse. Most of the the prominent characters in DBS don't use it - other than the gods - it's really just Goku, Vegeta, and Toppo, and they get done in left and right by characters without it. This, and the fact that the concept hasn't been developed in any way subtly communicates to the audience that it isn't that important, aside from exclusively benefitting two characters who are routinely challenged and surpassed by those without it. This is bad writing.
      2) The only things you've told me about God Ki is that it's stronger and more efficient, which I basically stated myself already. Where do those features even come into play? Show me an instance where a character with it is fighting a character without it, and these aspects you mentioned become relevant? It's just better? Is that seriously it? It doesn't have any special properties or utilities besides being nebulously superior? We don't get to find out about it's origins, or who can access it and why? Goku and Vegeta never find out any ways to develop it further, and nothing concretely differentiates it from the standard variant. It's called "GOD" Ki, and it doesn't even grant any special abilities to it's users that they couldn't otherwise access. If you didn't know it existed, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between those who did and didn't have it. Even the aspect of it being undetectable by those who do not use it is completely wasted and ignored. You think it would at least give an advantage to its users when fighting against non-users who couldn't read their ki during combat, but even such a basic element as that is ignored. If all it does is make Goku and Vegeta stronger/give them new forms, GT and other series already did that. Super just found a different excuse for it.
      I'm sorry for the long comment, I definitely could have condensed it if I wasn't ranting and impatient, but to sum it up:
      Let's face it, the concept of God Ki began and ended as a way to make Goku and Vegeta stronger. There was no plan for it outside that, and it really doesn't distinguish those with it from those without it in any meaningful way. It doesn't even have any interesting new uses or characteristics. Most anime that add a new dimension to their power system at such a late point in the story would bother do something with it - such as Haki in One Piece, and how it completely changed the dynamic of the series, and the prospects of characters if they did or didn't have it - DBS has completely failed to do this, and God Ki will likely be ignored or forgotten in future works as a result. DB has always had a simplistic approach to its power system, but this is just too lazy.
      If you're satisfied with the show just telling you it's better, and giving a powerup to Goku and Vegeta as a proof, then my criticisms probably aren't gonna resonate with you, but I personally expect a bit more when a writer introduces a whole new level to their power-system.

    The Special Beam Cannon is definitely one of the overpowered attack continuities as it seems to be always just enough if well charged. Personally, I think what makes the attack 'special' isn't just a simple power increase. I think the attack is essentially piccolo concentrating and fine tuning his ki to such an absurd level it bypasses any sort of defense. Kind of like krillin's destructo disk (though for piercing instead of slicing). Which explains the drastically increased power level as focusing ki into a single attack or point is much stronger than just doing the attack.

    @WickedKnightAlbel Před rokem +59

    What makes Special Beam Cannon so deadly is how monstrously efficient it is. He's drawing more force out of a comparatively small amount of Ki than most finishing moves and firing it in a single high-powered shot. The sheer complexity of the Ki control that goes into it is why most don't seem to utilize it very well, since if you look at other Ki control techniques like Spirit Ball, the characters tend to use much larger blasts that are harder to miss with while his attack is essentially _two_ separate shots that cling together, of which he has to account for both shots traveling at the same speed with one acting as the spear point and the other forming into the shape of a drill. There's so much going on with the move that it makes sense other characters fire it so lazily like they're using a Death Beam or Dodon Ray (both of which are clearly reliant on overwhelming the victim with superior Ki whilst just so happening to do so in a piercing fashion)

      Exactly. There is only one recurring move with a comparable charge time to Piccolo's Special Beam Cannon- that being the freaking Spirit Bomb. And, out of the two, the Special Beam Cannon has shown itself capable of being deadly to enemies far stronger than the user, where Spirit Bomb is only a finisher vs ones who're stronger but the user can conceivably still fight with.

    Also something to note, Kamehameha when hit by it, it's like taking one bit explosion or punch across your entire body.... It's more of a blunt attack that melts you if it overpowers your resistance.... Special beam cannon behaves more like a spear that has much more powerful pin point piercing damage... Same goes for the disctructo disc by the way, even though much less powerful, it has slicing damage and may cut you in half. Freezer survived the spirit bomb, but did not survive a disc attack.
    So to sum up, the type of attack is also a factor in the special beam cannon

    Piccolo has always been a special attacker who can always fight people massively over his power level. Sorta like mr po po can actually defend against attacks that should kill someone at his power level by eating Ki attacks as well as ultra instinct. The only way he died was because the plant he was on blew up. Piccolo having solar flare is by far one of the more useful skills in Dragonball regardless of power level.

    My personal head cannon for Piccolo is that the Namekians created the dragons within the dragon balls and the dragons look suspiciously like Namekians. So to me that means that Namekians aren't slug people, they're dragons and Piccolo's potential can only be measured by the mythical Dragon God, Zalama who was apparently the creator of the Galactic Dragon Balls... just like the Namekians.

    • @ribsmeat2333
      @ribsmeat2333 Před rokem +21

      That's already canon tho. The Namekians DID create the Super Dragon Balls, and the Dragon Balls themselves are made by Namekians, Namekians are also the oldest race with the most information. It isn't possible for Piccolo to become a dragon, but Piccolo should instead create his own set of Dragon Balls which would be cool. Plus, only the Earth & Namekian Dragons look similar to Namekians, if you read the manga there's a blue dragon that doesn't even resemble Namekians, and Super Shenron doesn't either. Essentially your whole head-canon just falls apart and doesn't make sense.
      P.S; The Namekian balls even specifically speaks Namekian language, so of course they are made by the Namekians.

Read the rest of my comment before you belittle my opinion and perhaps the lore as well. It's where I got my information in the first place bub not just looking at a screen shot of Piccolo and the dragons and saying, "They don't look alike."
      I'm not talking about faces and body builds, I'm talking about color schemes and basic body structures; like the muscles of Porunga being the same color and texture as Namekians. And the Blue Shenron dragon was made by a weaker Dragon Clan member so perhaps that's why that dragon doesn't look like it's much stronger cousins.

    It saddens me that piccolo's special beam cannon was stated in Raditz battle to be a two-handed form attack, but since he had only one arm in that battle, his attack was supposedly slower to charge or something like that, and they never got his two handed special beam cannon back, and to really make my point, piccolo taught Gohan Masenko, which uses two hands and is kinda similar as charges energy from the forehead, and can be used one handed like future Gohan used when lost his arm, so, Sepcial Beam Cannon should be in his complete form, a two handed attack 😢

    It’s also worth mentioning that in the Moro Arc, 17, who was around SSJ3 Goku level right before the ToP, had a hard time keeping up with Saganbo (one of Moro’s minions) while Gohan and Piccolo were still able to keep up. This same Saganbo was able to knock down SSJ3 Goku in a single blow.

    I think the problem with Special Beam Cannon is a lot of characters just throw it out, they don't understand it's a more complex technique that pushes and focuses that energy into a very small area, causing massive damage at the sacrifice of speed, so when someone like cell or Buu chuck it out they don't add any power to it, so it becomes a glorified dododon ray or death beam.

    Giant piccolo is just better grip and leverage, this technically is just making it easier to lift or handle/grapple as shown, however it won’t make him stronger or more powerful. I think this logic is sound, only thing I’d say is that it’s possible that the extra size can cause more damage do to more weight and surface area landing blows but to these characters that extra power is probably just a drop in the bucket.

    Piccolo does state in Super Hero that using Become Giant doesn't increase his strength but uses it as a bluff. True, he gains leverage against other giant characters such as Cell Max, but it doesn't raise his power. None the less, his Orange transformation is a significant power up.
    EDIT: I think Orange Piccolo was a much needed upgrade for Piccolo, but the Beast transformation wasnt necessary, more of a fan service type thing. But its still cool. And Special Beam Cannon is a teqnique that can pierce the barrier made by Gods which it did in the ToP. Super Hero was more about Piccolo's growth than Gohan's in all honesty.

    Well that was why I always liked the special beam cannon. Piccolo can infinitely charge it up way past what level he is on at the time. It just takes a while. So theoretically piccolo can one shot characters that are far more powerful than he is if he can get the opportunity to fully charge his special beam cannon. But I like how the writers don't just use that as an easy win for piccolo. Sometimes he misses or doesn't have time to charge it all the way. But it always states how lucky the enemy got that they weren't hit by it. I think if orange piccolo fully charged his cannon he could one shot Beerus with it. But it seems the problem with the special beam cannon is it is so slow to charge and obviously telegraphed. Kind of like Goku's spirit bomb. You see them charging it. You know what they are planning. So one on one you see it coming a mile away. But in a team fight where they have someone to keep the enemy too busy to notice it charging or dodge it. They are screwed if they get hit by it.

Someone would have to distract the Beerus while piccolo charged, which could take a very long time to charge it up enough. And they would have to somehow stop Beerus from simply dodging it. So it is a slim to none chance. But in theory it could work.

He can't get hit with the flash since its a beam but he does get hit with the explosion.

    Piccolo's size change alters mass + strength to me. Makes him physically larger, but in terms of the typical ki "power" I don't think it alters it. As in a Special Beam Cannon in his normal size and his enlarged size would yield the same output. Like his stretchy arms, its just a physical augmentation not something that would alter his ki. However, larger muscles would mean larger strength, hence why he can topple Cell Max where before he was struggling.
    Otherwise I imagine a very quick end to any fight if he just enlarges his size and does some supercharged Light Grenade to clear the field, er hemisphere.

Compressing it down into a tiny point, and then drilling it through the enemy. It's a force multiplier, by focusing the force into that tiny point.

Piccolo was always thought of as a brilliant fighter but sadly raw power mattered more I felt the tournament of power was the ideal moment to go back to the roots of the dragonball series and focus on special skills and hidden techniques that would show where the real fighters would surpass raw atrength which would allow krillin and tien an opportunity to reenter the series on par with atleast many of the opponents the z fighters would have. I even remember having that same feeling with pikon as pikons thunder flash attack was able to overwhelm goku and it gave both valid strength and weakness to a fighter but it basically went back to giant beam battles. I still want piccolo on par with the saiyins I want gohan yo not be cast aside anymore I want krillin and tien and even master roshi to show that its not just about transformation and power but what I want doesnt matter sadly so I'll just have to keep my dreams to myself 😔
