Battle Power Guide

First let us preface this by saying we realize that years ago we swore that you would never see "power levels" on Kanzentai. However, we decided to create this guide in the hopes that it will provide fans with more accurate information about battle powers than what you'd typically find on other websites. We wanted to overcome all of the mis-information out there and really, we just wanted to do it better than everyone else. This guide is intended to be a comprehensive guide to the battle powers stated in DragonBall, relying only on official information. There are no speculations or theories to any of the battle powers listed in this guide, only fact. If you're looking for fictitious battle powers for characters like Cell, Majin Buu, or Gogeta, then you've come to the wrong place.

Here's a quick overview of the different sections that make up the guide:
