Canon Numbers, Not Vibes
Power level debates die on made-up numbers, so these tools are built on the stated ones: the calculator’s nine race ladders hold 52 forms with multipliers that are strictly ascending and sourced where canon sources exist, and the reference tables on the calculator page list the actual scouter readings — from the farmer with a shotgun at 5 to Super Saiyan Goku on Namek at 150 million. Where the series stopped publishing numbers (everything after the Frieza saga, officially), the estimates follow the community-standard scaling and are labeled as such.
Settle the Argument Properly
The comparator takes two fighters with any race, form, and base power and gives you the verdict with the ratio between them — plus five one-click presets for the fights people actually argue about: Goku vs Vegeta at their Saiyan-saga numbers, Gohan vs Cell at the Cell Games, Goku vs 100% Frieza on Namek, Piccolo vs Android 17, and Goku vs Gohan on the same base power, one rung apart on the Saiyan ladder. Saved fighters persist in your browser, so your roster of custom characters survives between visits.
Name Characters the Way Toriyama Did
Every Saiyan is a vegetable pun, every Namekian an instrument or a slug, and the Frieza Force runs on dairy products — that is the real naming scheme, and the Saiyan name generator builds new names from those same stems across seven race styles. The fusion name generator goes one step further: its syllable-boundary rules rediscover Gogeta and Gotenks from their parents unaided, and they work just as well on your own name and your best friend’s.
Which Tool Settles Which Argument
Four tools, and the one you want depends on the sentence you are trying to finish.
- “How strong is my character?” The power level calculator turns one fighter into one number. Race does double duty there — it decides which form ladder you get, and it carries a multiplier of its own, from Human at 1.0 up to Angel at 2.0 — and each race clamps base power to its own range, so the starting point lands in the right neighbourhood before you touch anything.
- “Who would win?” The power level comparator runs that same formula twice and reports the winner plus the multiple between them. Reach for it when the argument is relative rather than absolute. Name a matchup and it is kept, up to twenty of them, so a long-running debate keeps its receipts.
- “What do I call them?” The Saiyan name generator covers seven naming schemes rather than one: vegetables for Saiyans, instruments and slugs for Namekians, cold words for the Frieza race, incantation gibberish for Majins, dairy and fruit puns for the Frieza Force, food puns for Earthlings, and numbers from 22 upward for Androids, because Dr. Gero’s canon line stops at 21. Its reference table pairs Saiyan stems with the vegetable each one puns on, and drops the handful with no single source rather than inventing an etymology for them.
- “What do we call the fusion?” The fusion name generator splits both names at syllable boundaries and combines them in both orders, ranked. Add a third name and it chains the way the series does: the winning pair fuses first, then that fuses with the third, so Goku, Vegeta and Piccolo resolve through Gogeta.
Why the Name Is Part of the Math
One thing surprises people: the name field is not decoration. The calculator folds it into a deterministic modifier between 0.85 and 1.15 and multiplies it in alongside the race and form multipliers, so two fighters with identical race, form and base power still read differently — and the same name always produces the same reading, on any device, forever. Leave the name blank and the modifier is exactly 1.0, which is the number to use when you want the ladder arithmetic on its own. The comparator calls the same function for both sides, so who you type is part of the verdict, not a label on top of it.
