Kefka vs Goku

[Spooniest]

Kefka wins because he's mean and evil enough to open the battle by casting Stop.

Is Goku wearing a Ribbon? Great!

...Except that Ribbons don't protect from Time Magic.

This is the only imaginable scenario in which Kefka comes out the victor without Goku receiving outside help. Otherwise, Goku is waaaay out of Kefka's league.

@ Sephiroth: Sorry there, old chap. I'm a comm major too...I just focus on 5 minute songs.

But knowing Goku wouldn't know the FF verse's stats and items too well he might come a bit unprepared except for bringing his clothes on his back and his power and intellect (if it's that big). I think your scenario might be true since the rules of the FFverse don't apply to DBverse. But I remember one guy saying on DBZ forums that if Babidi the wizard who revived Buu was a fighter with the magic he was able to use, he'd probably the deadliest enemy they ever fought. Buu was something but his magic knowledge was limited to turning people into candy. Babidi had a far larger variety of magic attacks. So I guess a Babidi fighter would be a bit like Kefka in some ways. Not to sound bitter, but I think a lot of people overestimate the DBverse and Goku.

- Goku is a Super Saiyajin God and a Super Saiyajin 4
- though inconsistent Goku's power was always shown to be in range of space destroyers (Vegeta Saiyan Saga: planet, Cell Cell Saga, Solar System, et cetera)
- Goku can teleport
- Goku's movement speed is beyond imagination (certain situations, so ridiculous that it even is inconsistent)
- Goku does not only use Chi but also use mind powers like telekinesis and reading minds (vs Frieza, Kuririn, et cetera)
- Goku can charge the entire power of the universe in one move (Genki Dama)
- Goku's universe does not work with the flawed causality paradox-causing concept of making something not happen even though it has happened but with the concept of a multiversal tree so whatever is done is done and something else will only affect a new branch - still inconsistent but at least a bit more logical
- Dragon Ball characters already were able to make a long combo within 5 seconds during the first tournament (Roshi VS Kuririn)
- if Goku cannot be magically overwhelmed by Kefka so he he cannot even teleport away or anything like that there is no way to actually hurt him, if there is some actual way to bring them into the same system there might b a chance with magic being so different
- Kefka does not work within the concept of Dragon Ball, he is not even shown to be a real god - other than Goku - but only compared to a god "he is like a god" which is something entirely different; in Dragon Ball God Chi can also not be felt by someone else than a God (e.g. Beerus could not be felt by Goku but by Kaioh before Goku himself became a god)

Did you draw that? Because if you did I like it, it's awesome

Magic has always proven to be a 50:50 thing in Dragon Ball. Sometimes you resist, sometimes you don't. Also magic can be deflected. Boo counters the transformation magic, Vegeto is totally immune against being negatively affected by it as his candy form makes no difference for him, Babidi's mind control magic is useless for Vegeta as he is corrupted and stronger with it but does not follow Babidi's orders, et cetera. So basically it is all about the "if you are stronger than that you can resist it" again. And Dragon Ball characters are very resilient to magic that they do not want to negatively affect them. You would need someone who actually is shown to have really overwhelming power while wielding magic. Something Kefka was not shown to have. He devastated the landscape and made it infertile. Piccolo Daimaoh was able to use such destructive power already. Kefka's power is not fleshed out enough. Oh - and Boo is not limited to just making sweets.

You need to have power that is really shown to be overwhelming.

If we take X-Death for example he would be totally useless against Goku. The Void is not just shown like some space-time-less "thing" but also shown like a prison from which you can break out. Right before the final battle they do. And that makes the Void already another dimension even though it shouldn't be. Goku can break out of other dimensions. Boo and Gotenks also did. As a matter of fact Goku, Boo, Cell and others have even teleported between dimensions.

EDIT: Yes, I did draw it. Thank you.

Hmm. Makes sense but I have to ask. Which FF villain would have magic power that is straight up overwhelming? Next on the list I could say Ultimecia, Cloud of Darkness, and Zeromus. But I will say, Ki attacks can be deflected too. I've read that prominent Ki users don't exactly have good resistance against Magic kinda like Superman. But if what you say is true and being turned into candy doesn't affect someone like Vegito then you'd have to try something a little less comedic and a little more...upscaled. A attack like Big Bang, Particle beam, Ultima, Supernova (less of a illusion and more actual that destroys the solar system, and Flare. Kefka has a small advantage of being able to attack before Goku could get anywhere by simply calling out Forsaken and Goku wouldn't exactly see it coming since it'd come from everywhere. But if he knows Magic well enough to resist it or at least avoid it he'd have an advantage. SO I guess we can say that Transformation magic and mind control magic should be thrown out as it doesn't exactly apply here. Purely offensive and defensive and medical magic would apply here in Kefka's case. I say so because transformation and mind control can be resisted or may not affect the affected. I think Kefka has the advantage of range as well, then again Goku does too if he's using Spirit Bomb, Kamehameha, or Destructo disk. I read a few fanfics in which Dante from DMC (not the crappy reboot but the original) fought Goku and the much was a draw but it said that if it was a fight to the death Dante would more than likely win because of his regeneration, magic abilities, and Devil Trigger. Goku fought at SSG here but I thought it was alright and would hint the Magic>Ki barrier. Strange thing, Dante recognized he used Ki so I guess Dante's smarter than Goku?

[Galuf]

Goku wins. because he doesnt laugh and he aint a clown.

please dont fight

[Lazerface]

But Goku does laugh when he's enjoying something. But, that clown did actually achieve more than Sephiroth ever could. He actually destroyed the world. I think earns a title as one of history's most successful villains along with Diablo.

[Sephiroth]

Sephiroth Kefka comparison

By moving some statues and on a planet that did not even fight back.

No Sephiroth Kefka thing here please.

And Caius is the most successful Final Fantasy villain.

Well, yeah. Goku would get his ass kicked the first time and then train. His friends would then try to fight Kefka in the meantime and get their asses whooped, the usual suspects would all die, Goku would learn a new technique, come back and they'd fight for 20+ episodes and Goku would win and then use the Dragon Balls to bring his dead friends back to life. Kefka would make a return on a series of inferior quality and die in one punch by Gohan.

[Mirage]

It's a question of speed. Don't forget that magic takes time.

This is Kefka's weakness in the game. Even at battle speed 1 (the fastest battle speed; player characters are not affected by +/- battle speed at all), Kefka is ridiculously slow.

One wonders, if he has wings and the most powerful source of magic in existence, why all four of your party members can get a turn before he gets one.

Even in my mod where his speed is set to 128, for some reason his agility gauge (hidden) seems to start the battle at 0 by default. Your characters are allowed to begin inputting commands right away.

Kefka wouldn't come close to Goku's speed. He'd be speechifying and Goku's fists would already be on their way to his gut.

At "battle speed 1". What's next, tidus is stronger than cloud because his game maxes out standard attacks at 99999 instead of 9999?

While we're at it, anyone in disgaea can get more total HP than any final fantasy character can deal in one attack round.

[Spooniest]

The pool of games in which there is knowledge of Kefka's fighting techniques and strengths/weaknesses is extremely small compared to the towering library of DBZ info out there.

It's either FFVI or Dissidia you have to go by.

DON'T JUDGE ME

Ooooo. Which would be best to go off of in this case?
