The Origin Of Elder Kai's Great Magical Capabilities

Where did Elder Kai's ability to use magic so well come from? Well, Elder Kai could already use magic very well. But, when explaining how the Potara Earrings work in Dragon Ball Chapter 502, he mentions that accidentally fusing with a witch enabled him "to work magic like the..." then his explanation is cut off.

In the world of Dragon Ball, there is good magic & bad magic. To do the unnatural, such as unlocking power beyond the natural abilities, we are shown that sorcery (wicked magic) must be known. And as shown with the wizard Babidi, his minions were given power beyond their normal abilities through his sorcery.

So, when Elder Kai fused the witch, her knowledge of witchcraft was combined with his own knowledge of godly magic. This granted Elder Kai the unique ability to use his new understanding of dark arts for good in order to give Gohan power far beyond his normal limits.

Godly magic can awaken latent potential.

Wicked magic can grant power beyond natural abilities.

Combined knowledge of good & bad magic can grant power FAR beyond normal abilities.

The magic of the Dragon Gods is beyond wicked magic & Elder Kai's godly magic. This is why Shenron was able to grant power FAR beyond normal limits to Piccolo within a few seconds instead of doing a process that takes 25 hours or more to do. Dragon Gods have the greatest magic capabilities that we have seen so far. I believe it is because as gods, they are beyond good and evil. So their magical knowledge is not limited by what people consider good or bad.

It's here. Official title is officially "Dragon Ball: DAIMA". Launching Fall 2024 as a 40th-anniversary celebration. Though the focus appears to still be Shin and Goku traveling to undo this, it appears EVERYONE winds up kids again. And I do mean everyone.

And yes, for those who asked, the Power Pole has returned.

made the mistake of clicking on the "for you" tab and saw the worst dragon age text post I have ever seen. It was like "man, I hope Bioware goes back to exploring [idea they thoroughly explored in all 3 games] like they did in Origins. I just know that they're just so obsessed with [idea that has been the main focus of everything from the very first cutscene of Origins]. I'm so sick of it."

This is what 10 years of not actually playing any of the games and playing them in your head is like. 10 years. I think some of you guys need a break. I know it did me some good.

Here are some female characters known for being blank faced/expressionless.

I don't really know what it is I like about these types of characters, maybe it's because they remind me of myself usually.

The Most Loyal Anime Characters

It’s funny to contrast for magical girl animes the rival is just like kinda rude and tsundere-ish and sometimes not even consistently to everyone and just only towards the protagonist specifically but overall a good person

while in shonen animes the rival regularly is like a genocidal war criminal but he’s chill now OKAY lmao

I just think it’s a REALLY funny contrast🤣

really old drawing made for a really niche audience

MAGICAL GIRL GOKU

[hikikomori-route]

You can really see the resemblance.

The power of friendship, although this is definitely supporting my hc of him being a bit of a tsundere. Now, unfortunately I didn’t get to screenshot everything from the Festival of Universes for Raditz I wish I had more as it’s so interesting. I can remember bits and pieces but he’s fun.
