Default Re: How can the Kaioken times three exist?

Kaio-Ken is a power multiplier. KKx1 doesn't exist. A regular KK and a "KKx2" are the same thing (thanks for confusing people, Mr Toriyama), and straight-up double your base power. KKx3 triples it, KKx4 quadruples it, KKx10 by ten times, KKx20 by twenty, etc...

The term "fold" in this context MEANS multiplication of. It's just a fancy way of saying "multiply." Look it up.

If the stress didn't make the Saiyan explode, I suppose it would. Why bother, though, when later stages of SSj are so much better and easier to sustain?

Then again, I suppose Goku's "Super Kaio-Ken" against Paikuhan would count. Using a Kaio-Ken to double the 50x boost from Super Saiyan means a 100x boost. :D
