    Tea in parts of England means your evening meal and a cup of tea depending on context.

    It doesn't specifically mean a meal where you drink tea. It specifically means evening meal. And "teatime" is the time when you eat in the evening.

    I always wondered why the planet that was the source of the magical wish granting dragon that people were always trying to use to become immortal superbadasses didn’t actually have any immortal superbadasses when Frieza invaded.

    Things would have gone a little differently if a hundred people with wish-powered giga-muscles had shown up and and done stretchy Kung Fu on all the trespassers.

    Frieza kinda arrived and started killing everyone right away.

    If the Namekians had done their Final Strategy of having every Namekian fuse into one they might have stood a chance.

    EDIT: Or shit, if Piccolo had merged with Kami before showing up he would have bodied Frieza.

    When I was an admin on a DBZ game back then, I actually had two AMVs made for me by players. That's how ever present they were.

    I developed my musical tastes from AMV playlists after I was raised on mostly country and classic rock and didn't really know of anything else.

    It was AMV's that showed me the existence of things like power metal, buttrock, and nightcore.

    I mean, how did nobody think to wish themselves into an immortal superbadass to guard them, or something. Or just out of greed. Or whatever.

    They'd have to travel to each individual village to request the Dragonball to do so. And I'm not sure they ever ended up using the things themselves.

    ...Why did they make the damn things anyway?

    A very good question. I mean, why did Kami?

    Edit: A plausible explanation would be for dealing with natural disasters and such though. Wish away the giant asteroid, etc.

    Probably outside the scope of the dragons powers.

    Considering that the only time we see a wish for immortality actually granted it’s with the Super dragon balls, there might not even be a way to get immortality from the dragon balls.

    Nameks don't need to eat and hes like 800 years old so he basically just meditates and trains Dende. I think once he merged with Kami he found inner peace of a sort

    I think Garlic Jr legit got immortality from the dragon balls.

    I guess even with immortality the namekians might not really have posed a threat to Frieza. Still would have been annoying to have unkillable green guys karate chopping your neck 24/7 after you blow up their planet.

    We know you can wish to be younger because of the Broly movie.

    Plus there is also that herb that makes you immortal that Roshi takes.

    Namekians seem to be immortal anyway.

    Why didn't Porunga the largest of the dragons simply just eat Freeza?

  • PlatyPlaty Registered User regular
    Maybe Namek had their version of a King Piccolo in the past and that's why they don't use their balls anymore

    Maybe they didn't exist yet when the drought killed off most of the life on the planet

    Maybe they created and used them to wish for more water because there seems to be water everywhere

  • WearingglassesWearingglasses Of the friendly neighborhood variety Registered User regular
    So Namekians are single gendered, produce via eggs, don't need to eat, and can regenerate limbs, and can make devices that allow for wish granting

    They're like the mystical cousins of Orks, then?!

  • PlatyPlaty Registered User regular
    The fact that they're all in different villages maybe means that all the village elders have to agree to use them

    And they're also protected against use by outsiders

    Goku also never used them to wish for Immortality

  • King RiptorKing Riptor Registered User regular
    Elder Kai mentions Nameks were allowed to make Dragon balls for some reason. I assume to repair their planet

    Broly addresses this. Freeza realized immortality means nothing because
    A he's functionally immortal already as his bucket of chunks form in resurrection F showed
    B when he was in Hell he wouldn't repent so he couldn't die or escape.

    He's basically a half time dad and grandpa now. There's a reason Piccolo is the one explaining to Chichi how to take care of Pan, and not the inverse.

    EDIT: Honestly, it's kind of hilarious how the asshole that started out throwing Gohan at cliffs ended up being, like, the best father figure in this entire series.

    They actually took their experience at bug planet to heart. At their next stop, they had bug men come out of the ground and explode.
