Toriyama was always a hack

>reincarnation grows up to be stronger in three years anyway

He's also a better father.

Does Piccolo get a power boast every birth?

I'm pretty sure Piccolo isn't the same person at all

I think it was just eating two other of his race that did it, which makes me wonder what the limit on that is.

Didn't he just wished to be younger? I don't remember well, watched it when I was a kid

One thing I did really like about Super were the two Universe 6 namekians that were fusions of their whole planet.
I thought that was clever.

user are you pretending to understand the biology of a race of fictional slug aliens that can shoot lasers out their mouths?

They also share 7 balls between all of them.

What I really believe is even if you have the same exact copy of something, they'll still both have a sense of self and evolve differently.

Isnt this like the philosophical dilemma where transferring your mind into a computer, or robot body, wouldn't actually be preserving your consciousness?

Yeah, I thought the same. I guess DBZ is 2deep for OP

Nah, that debate can be rendered moot if you consider that a computer is a circuit we know completely, we built it after all, so we know a computer can't do much other than interract with various peripherals, read and write to memory and do some maths.

This is different from the human spirit which is able to imagine and dream, to create fictional worlds, to imagine a woman in his arms, etc. This can't be replicated by a machine.

They stole the idea from dragon ball multiverse

Yeah, exactly. So Piccolo Jr. isn't a full replica, in the sense that your mind and soul go into him. Just like how an AI clone could have your memories and personality, but it's still not 'you.' It's just a being very similar.

Are they even aware of it?

>human spirit
>this can't be replicated by a machine
LMAO

Nah DBZ was lit, but I agree DB is an overrated piece of shit.

idk man, it's kinda just taking the namekian fusion idea to it;s extreme

Toriyama flip flops on who Piccolo Jr. is supposed to be. He was originally a completely different person, referring to Sr. as his father. And if I remember correctly, his motivation for fighting Goku at the Budokai Tenkaichi revolved around getting revenge for Goku killing Sr. But when the Android saga came along Piccolo was suddenly Sr.'s reincarnation and Kami considers Piccolo Jr. to be the same person as Sr.

Piccolo grew to be a different person for sure but when he was born he may not have had the memories but he definitely had Demon King Piccolo's will embedded in him.

>made a gag comic
>people treat every aspect of it like it's fucking philosophical
Toriyama was never the hack, his fans are.

>transfer all of your life force and strength into an egg
>die
>have "son" use dragonballs to wish you back to life
>perform Namekian fusion
>repeat

This. Also, did they unfuse after the ToP? Did they job badly?

He is kinda supposed to be. He has all of his fathers memories and will to kill Goku but he at the same time doesn't have his personality much, for whatever reason.

He did, op is retarded

I don't think so. Namekian fusion is, like, the only fusion in canon that's actually permanent.

>bitch-ass son uses dragon balls for immortality
>leaves you dead

Still would get destroyed by every enemy that showed up later

In one game Piccolo went back in time and fused with Piccolo Daimao.
