DBZ

[C0FFINCASE]

I was thinking today and if I existed in DBZ I'd have found the dragon balls twice. First to wish that I could beat anything that has, is, or shall ever exist in any contest or conflict. Second to wish that all dragon balls would cease to exist and nothing like them could be created again. The next billion episodes are me beating the shit out of everyone. I still can't figure out why Krillian didn't do that after dying a hundred times.

I actually lol'd

edit: I actually put some thought in it and figured why Krillin or any of the other Z Fighters never did it - they were all pure of heart that wanted nothing but peace on earth and tranquility. Power in the long run can really mess with your head.

Secondly, wishing that the Dragon Balls cease to exist could be a problem with Shenron; not sure he'd approve of it.

Third, your wish technically was already pursued by the likes of Frieza, Vegeta, etc. Immortality/infinite power.

But when you wish for infinite power or immortality you've left too much open. I didn't wish to be powerful I wished to always win. There are loopholes in that where I could die but achieve my goals but ultimately I've secured that my intentions are always carried out. That's why it's wish one, so when I go wish that the dragon balls can't exist and Shenron gets piss I can challenge him to a contest and win the right to have my wish granted.
Also I'm uncertain of Shenron's motivations. I don't know if he lives to grant wishes or existence is dependent on the dragon balls.

Well if we want to get technical, your wish makes sense. But in the context of Dragon Ball Z it is flawed for the aforementioned reasons.

1. Earthlings too pure to wish for power of any sort
2. Frieza/Vegeta pursued the closet thing to your wish, although there are obviously specifics in each wish.
3. Why did nobody ever wish for infinite wishes? Or for the dragon balls to only work for a specific person(s)? There are things like that left to be answered, but there are indeed wishes even Shenron cannot grant. Furthermore, there are multiple sets of Dragon Balls (and different dragons) so each wish probably can only apply to the set in use if we look at it logically. So while wishing away one pair may work (the dragon balls have vanished before -- when Kami/Piccolo died and they had to go to Namek to collect the Namekian dragon balls), wishing away another might be an invalidation.

All in all, your wish did make me laugh and it makes sense, but I do see potential flaws in doing so. Everything carries implications whether it was foreseen or not.

Conquering the world (although in this case it's the opposite) through the dragon balls isn't implausible but your idea was oversimplified and honestly if it ended up working out it would probably be too boring to watch anyways.

im gonna go watch dragonball now.

Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z were epic. GT was significantly out of that league of awesomeness, but I thought it was still pretty good I guess.

But those two were definitely the best.
