Re: Gotenks was FASTER than the speed of light...
Gotenks talks to Piccolo and says only a coupe lines before flying off. 30 seconds elapsed, at most.
Gotenks flies to the ground, into the distance, then takes off. If he's THAT fast, this would have taken less than a thousandth of a second. Too bad the speed of light deal is wrong, and Gotenks isn't that fast. Another 1 minute gone by.
*whole stupid "around the world" bullshit happens*
Piccolo finds Gotenks, they bicker for a few lines. Two minutes elapsed here, tops.
Gotenks takes off to Buu's "house". Again, it should tkae less than a millionth of a second if he's that fast. Too bad he's not. 5 minutes taken here.
Gotenks yells out for Buu. 30 seconds tick away...
AND FUSION ENDS.
Duh, fusion's a half-hour. Everything Gotenks did other than "flying around the world" took a MAXIMUM of 9 minutes (probably took about three minutes, if that).
That means that one panel that people are fawning over lasts for 21 minutes.
Few dozen = 36. Period. Not more.
Lightspeed = 1 lap = 1/8 second. Fact of life, so deal with it.
Laps light makes in 21 minutes = 8 * 60 * 21 = 10,080.
10,080 vs. "a few dozen"
Doesn't take the Professor from Gilligan's Island to do the math here. Gotenks is NOT as fast as light.
In fact, he's only about 1/280 the speed of light (and that was giving him the benefit of the doubt, by the way).
Period. Proven. Stop saying that Gotenks was faster than light.
