Would you rather be a Kryptonian or a Saiyan?

Simple question.

You just found out that you're adopted and your parents found you in a space ship. Your powers are just now starting to form.

So...would you rather your origins be from the Planet Vegeta as a Saiyan warrior?

Or would you rather be from the Planet Krypton as a Kryptonian?


I'd rather be Kryptonian personally. No inherent blood lust, and pretty much immortal.
 
Saiyan would mean turning into a giant mindless monkey on the full moon. You'd also have the appetite of a hundred men. And becoming godly powerful would require training and getting your ass kicked over and over again, not just developing as you mature.
 
It depends if there are other beings out there that threaten the earth. If there are, Kyrptonian, if not, Saiyan. Saiyan powers are way cooler to me.
 
super sayian..the more you fight the more stronger you become ..you basically have all the powers of superman beside heat and xray vision which I could use without ..also supe's weakness kryptonite would suck but then again..every full moon I would end up destroying shit unless i yank the thing which I would guess would be pretty painful
 
Saiyan has to stand still and go AAAAUUUUUGGGH AAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUGHH AAUUUUUUUUUUUUUGORGHUGH for 30 minutes to get really strong. Superman can just get out there and start throwing punches.

So yes, definitely Kryptonian.
 
Kryptonian.

Sure you can only go to solar systems with yellow suns, but you can go into space.

Kryptonian, dude. They are born gods. Saiyan have to train and cheat deaths to be as powerful

Oh wow I completely forgot about that aspect of DBZ.
 
As cool as being a Saiyan would be, I'd prefer to be Kryptonian. Do absolutely nothing but soak up yellow sun-rays and I become a god.

How do you NOT choose Kryptonian?
 
Superman can tow whole planets. Doesn't get any better than that.

Although it's every kids dream to do a Kamehameha‎...
 
It's already been decided that Superman beats whatever that fuckin monkey-assed ripoff in Dragonball is called.

This is just a different question hurtling like a rocket from a far flung planet towards its unavoidable conclusion just outside of Smallville, Kansas.
 
Saiyan. Seems easier to interact with humans that way. I imagine Superman needs a laser focus every moment of his life just to avoid ripping people apart when he shakes their hand.
 
Kryptonian.

Most of the cool stuff you can do in the DB universe, like flying, shooting fireballs, super jumps and such don't require you to be a Saiyan, as they're just learn-able techniques.

Plus the food bills you'd rack up being a Saiyan would be painful.
 
Also another flaw of Kryptonian, put on some eyewear and no one knows who you are. Come summer you can't even wear shades lest people suddenly think you're a stranger.
 
-Kryptonians have so many unknown powers. All Saiyans can do is punch harder and merge with other Saiyans.

-Kryptonian-human hybrids have often been depicted as weaker than parents* while Saiyan-humans become more powerful. The benefits depend on whether you worry if your descendents will kill you for your property.

-Red and Black forms of Kryptonite are helluva drug.

-Mr. Mxyzptlk is a cooler extradimensional friend than King Kai. Justice League are way cooler than the Z Fighters.

-Superman eventually becomes Prime Superman and can do whatever he wants with reality. Goku absorbed the the Dragon Balls, but their wishing powers are finite.

*I'm referring to Superman dynasty/Legion descendants. Connor Kent is a clone. Hyperman is the son of Superman/Wonder Woman.
 
Why would it be any different for goku?


Superman may as well have skin made of invulnerable diamond and is far stronger than Goku. There is no comparison, Goku can at least live in a human world, Superman is out of place there and must remain constantly vigilant and somewhat isolated.
 
See, all of you who want to be Saiyans do understand that unless you're Broly or something, you'll be a couple thousand for power level at best, yes? And you'd need some way to train, or become intensely masochistic AND have a way to recover afterwards? Goku competes with Superman when he's Super Saiyan.

Everyone who chose Kryptonian would be able to whip your asses. Allllll daaaayyyyyy looooonnnnngggg.
 
Pretty sure a saiyan without training is only as strong as a really buff human. And I dont think they can breathe in space.
