Poll: Kryptonian or Saiyan?

[Soviet Heavy]

Most people here seem to be construing the Saiyan's with Goku. Average Saiyans are nowhere NEAR Goku's level. Most of them would be around Raditz or the like. Goku and Vegeta are super saiyans, they aren't indicative of the whole species.

a true kryptonian 'superman' grown and trained in the presence of a yellow sun then sent to earth is basically god.
the superman we know was a farm boy that happened to have superpowers
if you gave batman krypton cells.. well, you have god.

even goku cant compete with that power, sorry but no
goku is damageable by being physically hit, superman is not.
he has 'passive invulnrability' and goku can be *****-slapped when his guard is down
( vajeeta does this in an episode )
and he's not even the most powerful kryptonian and he was never properly trained, only taught by his crystals
( unless your including alternate universes, expanded story-lines.. yadda yadda. )

goku has been to the end of the universe and trained by all the greats his whole life
the average sayan only has a power level of about 3000 without this kind of mental and physical training

i would go as far as to say sayans are unimpressive compared to the 'just awesomeness' of kryptonians

and, everyone has their flaws before you point out kryptonite
i'll just point out that a regular disease put goku down for half a season.
seriously.
what? just no.

so, kryptonian, it's the only real choice here!
let's be honest who wants to be a giant ape when you can be batman+superman in one
( seriously, superman is a dumba@@ he could benefit
from batman's mental capacity quite allot. )

I don't think you know much about superman if you believe he can't be injured when physically hit.

Kryptonian, because I don't want to turn into a monkey by a full moon and squash my friends and family. That seems really inconvenient.

 

[ZombieMonkey7]

Well I would say saiyan because they have UNLIMITED POWER!
All you have to do is have a near death experience and you become even more insanely powerful

People always forget to double tap on that show.

 

[Atmos Duality]

Both options suck.
Either my homeworld gets annihilated and I grow up to be a boy scout.
Or
My homeworld gets annihilated and I grow up to be a retarded monkey (or alternatively, an asshole).

 

[Vausch]

Saiyan. Cause Superman needs a yellow sun to be super. As a Saiyan is awesome wherever.

Also I like DBZ better. And Superman wears his underwear on the outside. What a goofball.

Not any more, he doesn't. His undies were a victim of the reboot.

In any case, nobody's saying you have to wear the suit. You'd just have the powers.

 

[Vausch]

hmm, well for this I'll be assuming this universe is an combination of the DBZ universe and the DCU. Both would inquire me having superpowers. And, in this hypothetical universe there are several alien civilizations So i guess interstellar travel would happen quite a bit.

Kryptonians have better powers, but they are dependent on the color of the nearest star, there's also the kryptonite thing.
Saiyans have lesser ability's, but they can use them anywhere and have a harder to exploit weakness.

I'd go for saiyan, but make sure to keep a lump of kryptonite on me.

Perhaps I should have said this is like Earth Prime or something, though fairly recent events such as Final Crisis have shown Earth Prime has other aliens in that universe.

 

[Deadyawn]

Superman's powers are all very well and good but seriously, everyone in the DBZ universe is so wondefully overpowered that it isn't really a contest. I mean, some of them can blow up ENTIRE PLANETS. So yeah, I pick them.

Who said you have to get their personalities? Clark only is a boy scout because that's how he was raised, same with Goku.

Sigh...internet humor is beyond my capabilities it seems.

But really? Goku was raised to be an imbecile? Talk about mean-spirited.

Allegedly, Super Boy Prime punched the walls of reality so hard, it caused a shift in the multiverse.
So yeah...I think Superman actually wins that one, and that's compared to a show whose entire premise is about a bunch of assholes floating around in the middle of nowhere one-upping each other.

...Scary.

 

[Zen Toombs]

Superman, because I am America and So Can You.

Seriously though, ignoring the possible reproductive problems [http://www.rawbw.com/~svw/superman.html], Kryptonians get the better deal. Superpowers biased solely on being in the solar system (as opposed to needing to learn techniques that you won't have a teacher for)? I'll take that.

 

[DarkhoIlow]

Saiyan all the way,their hairdo's and power levels are aaawesome.

Not so much, he was just raised by a hermit most of his life and the rest was pretty much him alone or with a pervert. Plus he didn't go to school so there's that XD

 

[The Lugz]

I don't think you know much about superman if you believe he can't be injured when physically hit.

qft, i am not a comic book nerd nor do i usually look into expanded universes
it's much less headache.

point is, how he is depicted in things ive seen him in makes him indestructible, and he is quoted as being indestructible on several sites, so you can understand my confusion.

anyhow, if it's possible for a cryptonian to charge himself to the point as quoted from his expanded universe that he can throw entire star systems around, i think we can agree that physical stress on his body is a moot point anyway as either way, he has the mass of the solar system pressing on him, or his 'telekinetic strength' if that's what it's supposed to be, i read that somewhere too
that's allot of force, either way.

like i say, it's a nightmare if you want to have lore arguments.. just don't do it

 

[Hookman]

Kryptonians are only powerful under a yellow sun. The monkey-men are powerful all-the-fucking-time. So in other words, KAKAROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT!!!!!!!!

 

[titankore]

Actually I wrote a speech about whitewashing where I made the comparison between superman and Goku. They are both Aliens who arrive on earth and happen to look enough like the native population to pass as the actual offspring of their adoptive parents.

I did this to talk about how the F#@$$ing Dragon ball movie along with several others were racist piles of Sh3@! for hiring white actors for clearly non white roles.

The movies I talked about included fictional and true stories.

 

[Aethren]

Saiyan, clearly. Kryptonians can be killed, and once dead, they're gone for good. Saiyans? Just need to fondle some dragon's balls and bam, they're back in the game.

 

[Furioso]

Saiyan, I would just let people beat me up constantly, since they get stronger when they are beat to near death, why didn't any of them think of that? Just take turns destroying each other, eat a sensu bean, become a God, bam, done
