   And the answer is...

Drumroll please! *magically a drumroll sounds in your head* ... .... ..... NO ONE IS SURE! Sorry for the trick question, but I wanted to see if all the arguments would be stated, and almost all of them have! Super Saiyan 2: Many believe this is the height of Super Saiyan power for Half-Saiyans, especially considering no single Half-Saiyan has attained Super Saiyan 3 or higher. Gotenks: I say "single" in the pervious argument because Gotenks can indeed reach level 3, but he is fused. There is a lot of vagueness here as Gotenks is still *genetically* a half-saiyan (both Goten and Trunks are half, therefore so is the fused version) UNLESS Saiyan DNA overtakes Human DNA when fusion occurs, in reality this doesn't hold up too well, but in the DBZ universe, many might agree, especially Vegeta, as he believes human DNA is "weak". Now if this is the case, then why don't the fused forms of Goku and Vegeta ever go SS3? (they go 4 in GT) Some argue that a fused fighter can only go as high in SS as the lowest the two parent characters can go. In the Buu saga, for example, Goku can go SS3, but Vegeta could only go SS2, so the fused version Gogeta, or Vegetto (forget which one is for earrings and dance *hint on next question*) can only go SS2. Now we aren't entirely sure they even went SS2 in the Buu Saga, but we do know they at least went SS. This also throws the power level arguement out of the window, unless Vegetto/Gogeta just didn't feel that going SS3 would be necessary or energy-effiecient. Barring that part, then Vegetto/Gogeta have a WAY higher power level then Gotenks, yet Gotenks can go SS3 and Gogeta/Vegetto can't which doesn't make much sense. SS Mystical Gohan: This is a more rare argument, but has some grounds. Some state that if Gohan (the only unfused Half-Saiyan to ascend past the SS2 level) had trained harder between the Cell and Buu Sagas, that he would've been able to reach a "Mystical Super Saiyan" level upon attaining the power to reach Mystical from the Old Kai. In relative terms, a "Mystical Super Saiyan" is stronger then a SS3 by about 7-8 times! This estimation comes from the fact that the power level of Mystical Gohan is about 5 times of that of Super Saiyan 3 Goku. (here's my evidence among others http://www.myfavoritegames.com/dbz/power-levels(new).htm) Super Saiyan to Super Saiyan 4 - An even less known argument, this is perhaps the most mysterious as it has no evidence whatsoever other than logic and theory. The rumor is that if a Saiyan reaches Super Saiyan 1, and still has their tail, then they can become a Super Giant Ape (the name of the the giant gorrila espaces me right now) After mastering the power of the Super Giant Ape, the Saiyan (or half saiyan maybe) can finally reach Super Saiyan Level 4. The reason why this is only theory is because noone was able to go super saiyan while they still had their tail until GT. In fact the only Super Saiyan around while any of the Saiyans or Half-Saiyans had a tail was Broly, but he was not known of at the time. The main arguement against the Super Saiyan to Super Saiyan level 4 theory is that a Saiyan or Half-Saiyan must master the power asociated with levels 1-3 before being able to control the super ape form which unlocks level 4. This makes sense, as only Goku and Vegeta ever reach this level, Goku manages to reach all Super Saiyan levels, thus enabling him to become 4 after getting his tail back when being wished back into a child. Vegeta is able to master all the forms through help from evil forces (Babidi allows him to go and master SS2 and Baby-controlled Bulma brute ray allows him to go Super Ape and then ultimately SS4). Also, Goku is unable to stay fused with Vegeta at SS4 for very long, as his child body can barely sustain such power- this further solidifies the power level and Super Saiyan Mastery requirement for SS4. I know this was long, but it can cause a lot of discussion among DBZ/GT fans, especially the hardcore ones.

   Hmmm

I had a Japanese oral interview test yesterday, and I have no clue what grade I'm going to get. We were first assigned roles- we were supposed to be at a party. My partners had to introduce each other (which we've done MANY MANY times) but I had to introduce someone (my teacher actes as the introducee) to them. Now that would've been ok, but we only went over that a couple of times in class, and I completely forgot what I was supposed to say when I actually wanted to say "this is my friend..." I was able to convey the information aout her though, so I did redeem myself on that part somewhat (I could see my other teacher who was grading us nod in approval at some points.) We were then given a second senario- we had run in to each other on the street and were all going to the post office for various reasons so we decidecd to go together. I did ok at this part, I remembered what to say and didn't studder too badly. We then got to the post office, and, with out teacher acting as the clerk, we had to by assined items, or send certain pieces of mail. This is where things started to go down hill. I got VERY nervous, and forgot like half of my Japanese vocab and what to say. I did remember some of it, but I probably sounded like a japanese kindergartener at best. We then each took turns being inetrviewed by our teacher and then asking her questions. I was last, and I was once again able to answer, but not well. I started getting even more nervous and nearly forgot my tenses. I was able to keep my sentance structure ok though, SO, I have no clue what I'm going to get. I didn't comepletely shut down or pause for a long time, but I did forget a lot of what would make sense in those senarios. It's funny because we were asked very similar questions two nights before and I was able to answer easilly, but yesterday I almost completely freaked out and got super nervous, which probably screwed me up even more.

Hmmm

It's interesting that rav brings up Mario's Missing, because not many people know about/ remember that game. There is at least one more though, think a more recent system!

   No one...

No one even attempted to answer my quiz question lol, anyone alive out there?! Anyway, I think I'm finally turning the tide in the war against Japanese class. If I manage to learn katakana withtin a reasonable timeframe, I just might have a shot at staying afloat in the class. As it stands the only thing that's saving me is my homework!

   Quiz time!

BunnieGirl has started to do quizzes on her site, I think it's a good idea as it draws more attention and makes my page more interactive so here's the first question (I know it's easy!) What is Mario and Luigi's last name?

   Weekend Time Again

*Now that all the patch stuff is out of the way, we now return you to your regularly scheduled Otaku life* Well, classes are done for the week for me, and once again I find myself wondering what I'm going to do for the next three days. I SHOULD study Japanese, I SHOULD read for English and Government, and I SHOULD start on my Computer Science Project, but, like every other weekend, this stuff just DOESN'T happen until Sunday, lol.

   Patch Notes!

Now that I've given everyone some time to get a feel for my new site, I'm going to now explain a couple things about it- -New Windows: Most of the buttons on my site upon their coresponding destination in a new window, this makes it easier for people to look at other people sites and other parts of my own without needing to use "Back" to get back to the hub. This is also useful if you like the current music playing, and don't want it to go away when you click on something! I will, however, take feedback on this, as I'm sure some people may think its annoying to have several windows open. I can change that system through a button by button basis, so I don't have to make ALL of them open new windows or not. -Boxes: I have put an immense amount of effort into making the new welcome, nav, aboutme, and button boxes, but I have also made it easy for me to change their content (backgrounds, banners, text, pics, etc.) So now my site will have a theme change every now and then. Now that you all know a little but about me, I'll trust you guys to make suggestions on what you want the next theme to be. -Buttons: As you can see, I have a part of my site devoted to buttons to different people's Otaku sites. I have sent out PMs to some of my friends for their buttons, but I'm not sure who has buttons and who doesn't. So, if you want me to add your button, just send me the url of the image! Also, if you are unsure as to who's site the button goes, just keep the mouse over the button, I have programmed alt messages for each friends button I added. This also helps when friends' buttons break. -Extended Bio: I have added a LOT more information about myself in my welcome window, especially my history in anime. Unlike posts, I will put more long term info here, in conjunction with the "About Me" box. If you would like anime pictures, music, music vids, etc to be a more long term part of my site, give me your suggestions for this box! -New(er) Post Banner: I've updated the banner for my post boxes, nothing major, but I made it slightly easier to see. -Optimal Viewing at Higher Resolutions: If you like running your computer at higher resolutions, or have a wide screen monitor,(both of which I do) than this is the hib for you! If it is TOO wide for smaller monitors, or low-res users, please tell me, so I can tweak my table dimensions.
