Can Piccolo regenerate entire parts of his body or is it limbs only? Has he ever been shown regenerating his torso? Head?

I agree with this.
I think Vegeta gave him his best fight.

Hopefully you mean the first fight, not the Buu saga.
People here like to talk of the impact hits in the original DBZ had and I know what they mean. But sometimes it was so damn repetitive and nothing illustrates that more than Majin Vegeta vs Goku.
In terms of pacing sure.
Frieza fight suffered a lot of pacing issues, especially in the original. Kai fixed it a little, but it still goes on too long.
Even the Piccolo fight, there are some episodes that were lackluster.
Maybe Goku vs. King Piccolo is up there.
Same for Tien and Goku.
I need to rewatch the Goku vs. Cell fight.
Of course. I think it is the best fight in DBZ.
As much as I like the Vegeta fight- How could the answer by anything other than Freeza?
That's​ one of the most iconic fights in the medium, and that's probably understating it a little.
Its not shown but when he was a stone statue during the Darbura fight he gets broken into pieces and somehow returns to his normal forms telling the kids that he regenerated lol
In the Buu saga, he said something like as long as his head remains he should be able to regenerate.
We see that in the Buu saga when Trunks knocks him over as a statue and breaks him.
Edit: Beaten like Goten.

As long as his head is intact he can regenerate the rest.

I think Goku had a much more persistent struggle with Cell than he did with Freiza. Iconic has nothing to do with it.
Agreed fully.

as long as his dome remains, the green man can become anew
That fight is certainly up there for me. Goku vs Frieza has some of the best moments in the series. Yet still, Goku vs Vegeta comes out on top for me. The beam-struggle is still my favorite scene in this franchise to date! Hell, anime period really.
And man, Vegeta simply refused to die! He just kept coming back like a damn horror villain. I love that damn fight.

You keep coming for goten it's gonna be a problem
17 doesn't have a bomb.
I loved this moment from the Trunks Special retelling of the Goku vs Frieza fight.
The 360 flip to land after the back kick deserves a fucking SSS rating from DMC.
The way he sticks the landing is soooo good.
Both Goku vs Piccolo's (not counting the very first time he got ganked by Piccolo Sr) leaned pretty heavily toward Goku. They only ever really got the upperhand through abusing some external inconvenience of Goku's, like taking Tien hostage or threatening the tournament's audience, or catching him off guard like at the very end of the last fight when Goku got all his limbs busted.

Isn't she like eight or nine? Why does the show treat her like a toddler?
Yup. One sided fights are lame.
That's why Goku vs Vegeta and piccolo vs 17 were among the absolute best.
Even fights are so fun to watch.
Have you seen what her dad looked like when he was 14?

I am willing to look past this because Marron is cute as a button. I hope she never grows a nose.
But yeah, she's more than old enough to show off her half-android powers by now.

Who knows they're treating the kids terribly and I use kids loosely because goten and trunks are teens
Yeah. She's older than Goten and Trunks were in the Buu saga now.
For the same reason Goten and Trunks still act the same as in the Buu saga.
Goes to show good choreography can do wonders for how good a fight looks.

The fact that they've shown us that they can still make stuff like this hurts more than anything
We need THAT in Super!

New headcanon: whis messing with Time on Earth has the side effect of no-one aging who was already born. Pan, Bra and anyone born after can age, but everyone else is stuck as is forever.

The more I think about it, the more I'm really going to be disappointed if this scene isn't reenacted by Caulifla and someone from U7, preferably Goku
Might explain the mannerism difference too, she's tribal but can act innocent to trick people into dropping their guard, then "Please, don't hurt little old SAIYAN HULK ME!"

I hope that somewhere down the line we get a small retelling of the Goku Black arc, along with better animation and choreography, they could do wonders for it.The fact that they've shown us that they can still make stuff like this hurts more than anything

Thanos acquires the fully powered Infinity Gauntlet in The Avengers: Infinity War, but loses when all the superheroes team up together to stop him.
The thing that's tripping me up is that FemBroly is seen with the U11 team in promo shots. It makes me think that maybe Toppo's group scouted her from U6 and added her to the team, which would make Caulifla a different character entirely.
They could very easily be the same person though. Who knows.

Removed? Or was 18 and 16 the only ones with bombs?
Just 16.
Wait, what? Thought 18 had one as well, which is why she was going to blow up against Semi Perfect Cell. Then Krillin wished the bomb gone.

I wish u was wrong....
But u not
She could self-destruct but unlike 16's bomb the damage wouldn't have been a big explosion. Krillin used the Dragon Ball's to wish away the self-destruct bombs in 17 and 18 anyway.
Don't worry guys I was holding back dot jaypeg

Base form Goku should still be strong. Even Whis said that they have to get strong in their base forms first to improve elsewhere.
But this could be magical fuckery and Goku willingly going soft on him to see how much he can stand.

It's as strong as a super saiyan god.
Ahah I'm kidding.
He trained for 4 years since that, so he's beyond a super saiyan god in base form.
That's not how that works tho. They've been walking back base form strength for a while now.
The return of Jackie Chun?

Well, the show specifically states that training your base form gives you a boost in all areas. That's what they were doing in RoF, after RoF, and more. It wouldn't make sense for their base forms to be at Buu arc levels, even if they aren't hitting God levels in their base form anytime soon.

fuckin' called it, man
The truth hurts
Hard to say but he was somewhat sidelined at the start of the Trunks arc too and then following 67 he was off-screen for a while. Could just be Toriyama doesn't know what to do with him again and Toei really wants to push the other characters like Gohan and Krillin instead.
