Why do people think Vegeta didn't die from the earth exploding?

DBZ fans seem to think that an increase in ki automatically means an increase in durability(ie. Super Saiyan transformations),but this was never stated in the manga or the anime.It was stated abd shown in the manga and the anime that Super Saiyan transformations give an increase in strength,strike force,speed,and overall destructive power and or potential but it has never been stated to increase durability.Now of course there are different forms of durability in DBZ and super Saiyan transformations two increase durability in two of these forms.The first is durability to blunt force attacks which of course increases with there power level,the second is ki resistance which of course increases there resistance to ki as their power levels go up,and the third is planet level durability which only a handful of DBZ villains.Goku and Vegeta may have surpassed Frieza in speed and power by a long shot but it is frieza and his species physiology that allows them to survive theost horrific injuries.Think about it,cooler survived going into the sun but broly was killed,frieza survived a planet blowing up on him but Vegeta died.Now guys in no way am I bashing DBZ, I love dbz but certain things just don't make sense and I would love to hear your opinions.So guys let me know.

Gods can breef in space maybe?

I have a theory that the SSJ forms make one more durable, allowing for more power output with less harm to oneself. This would explain why Mystic Gohan doesn't need to go SSJ, he's already durable enough in base form to use his maximum power.

Well we simply don't know how he died. It could have been from the explosion or it could have been from suffocation. It wasn't shown.

@raizel: I sense fanboying. :P

@raizel: Broly is movie only for mow,if you know what I mean.

I came here to see if anyone said

"Because he didn't"

He didn't

But that's all I'll say

I won't take your bait

Your a DBZ hater

Cause he's their Husbano

@darling_luna: flagged.

Don't post in threads i post in.

Because they don't understand that durability is not the solution to all problems.

1. Vegeta is definitely capable of surviving the explosion - heck, first form frieza, final form frieza devoid of any ki, cut in three pieces and severely beaten down still tank exploding planets. Durability is not the problem at all.

2. What goku/vegeta do not have is the ability to survive space - without oxygen and what not. It was made clear by frieza in his own arc, and it was confirmed by whis in the movie - the question of surviving came down to ability to survive space.

Also: I am simply going off the title - OP is.. lacking paragraphs for a start. Tl; Dr.

@midnightdragon18: Never !

@darling_luna: flagged again.

If you continue to post in threads i already post in, there will be consequences.

@josteinfleurme65: I honestly don't think it matters. He could be durable enough because of the form he is in, but then suffocated. It was a 4 second scene lol. I don't think there should really be that many debates over the rules of this character who's limits are unknown....

@midnightdragon18: @darling_luna:

@midnightdragon18: *whispers* Neber

@princearagorn1: But you must understand,it was not ki that allowed frieza to survive,it was hjs physiology.

@w0nd: I understand and I respect your opinion,it was just never implied to increase his durability.

@mysticmedivh: flagged.

Don't mention us in the same sentence.

of course. That's exactly what makes the entire ordeal so impressive. If he had any ki left, one could argue 'he used ki to defend himself' - but here, he did it just with the durability of his body.

That's what made super saiyan goku's punches and physical durability so incredibly impressive.

@midnightdragon18: That wasn't a sentence though.

@mysticmedivh: ahh, you got me

you're right, but it's hard to say that didn't either. I mean he casually strolled throw a blast that was intended to kill him right...what ever the reason may be, and then in his weakened depowered form he blew up the planet. Why didn't he just do that right off the bat? Why use a weaker attack to kill vegeta?

if vegeta could handle his golden attacks should he be able to withstand the planet blowing up too? or react fast enough to do something. It wasnt an instantaneous explosion, he probably could have out flew it....but then he would suffocate i guess. Either way he dead

@princearagorn1: Once again there is a huge difference,Goku's punches are concentrated on one point of friezas body while the planet bust is everywhere,just because Goku's punches hurt him doesn't necessarily mean they did more damage,it's essentially the force of the blast dispersed vs. the force of the punch concentrated.

Huh, goku is hitting a full power a very healthy frieza with maximum ki. Frieza who took the explosion had his internal organs exposed and had no ki left to amp his durability..

@w0nd: That of which you are describing is blunt force durability and ki resistance.To answer your second question,PLOT.

i was just trying to see the other side of the argument lol. I honestly think he would be killed.

Same reason he tried to impale goku on a sharp rock...because unlike superman they aren't invulnerable.

@princearagorn1: I mentioned this in my paragraph below my title,that is blunt force durability,totally different from planet exploding durability.

@w0nd: Nice to know where you stand.

'planet exploding' deals a good amount of blunt force anyway.

@princearagorn1: But also huge amounts of heat and pressure hitting every corner of friezas body.

pressure is blunt force, but yes, a good amount of heat.

@princearagorn1: Which we can both agree did most of the damage,(I'm talking about the heat).

He died because he can't breath in space and durability had absolutely nothing to do with it since Vegeta would have easily survived the explosion.

@josteinfleurme65: Where are you getting this ki resistance from?

@knightsofdarkness2: But how do you KNOW that?

@knightsofdarkness2: you know that thing in dbz where the higher your power level the less damage ki attacks do to you like cooler and broly tanking point blank kamehamehas with no damage.

Ignore the fanboys, he did died.

Vegeta is a joke fighter.

Because he would've easily survived the explosion and it has been stated that Goku and Vegeta can't breathe in space.

I know but that has nothing to do with the discussion since Vegeta would've survived the explosion with relative ease anyway. It's just that he can't breathe in space yet which is why he died.

A lot of things won't make sense about this series if you take it apart. That's one of the trademarks of the series. It's not really meant to. Even most of the names are jokes and puns.

Anyway, ABC works fine in this series. If "A" can survive ___ explosion/attack/hit, and "B" is stronger than "A," Then "B" can survive whatever as well. Barring some special circumstances (and plot) such as Spirit Bombs.

@knightsofdarkness2: Once again it is NEVER stated in any official or unofficial sources that Super Saiyan transformations even ones that give the user GODLY KI increase concussive explosion durability in any way,now I don't know for certain what killed Vegeta only Toriyama knows,but in my personal opinion I think it was the explosion amd there is NO evidence otherwise.

@yodaprime: It is all about Physiology not ki level so in the durability section abc logic falls short.

@josteinfleurme65: It does increase durability.

nope

@omega_kai: @josteinfleurme65: Now omegakai I last thing I would want to do is offend you but you must provide proof.
