Resolved: If Goku and Superman were to fight without holding back, Goku would be the winner.

RE SPEED: My opponent states that he has provided a source to suggest that Goku could achieve a state of intangibility, but this is false. In the series, it is explained that Goku was moving so quickly, that it merely appeared that he wasn't moving at all. This is the reason the animators took the time to show Goku in slow motion as he was hitting Recoome (the big stupid looking guy with red hair)(as it just appeared that his body had instantly come into contact with Recoome earlier on) Also, if you examine "0:24 –0:36 on that video my opponent cites, it explains not only the bit about Recoome, but even shows that Goku was actually moving due to the irregular shape of his foot prints on the ground beneath him. Speed is certainly a factor as Superman's is superior by a large margin. Even if Goku moves around with instant transmission, he is merely limited to light speed movement. And for those who don't know, light speed is translated at a speed of 180,000 miles per second. As shown in my earlier comic book citation, Superman can move trillions of miles in mere seconds, so his speed is obviously superior. Goku would never be able to get away from him. Finally, my opponent has raised no objection to the fact that Goku's instant transmission can merely move at the speed of light. If he attempts this in round 4, you can drop any such argument on that matter since he did not so when I had the chance to respond. RE STAMINA: I claimed that Superman was only harmed by that bullet because of kryptonite, but made another claim as well. Allow me to quote it: "Superman used to weaken while just being around Kryptonite." "And since the topic concerns Goku and Superman at their best, this link which my opponent presents is dismissible." In the first quote, notice the words "USED TO WEAKEN." In other word, the implication was that it was a common occurrence of the past. In the second quote, the implication was that the comic which my opponent cited did not present Superman at his best. Not only can Superman at his strongest withstand kryptonite more so than he could in the past, but he has also developed a tactic of melting the kryptonite with heat vision while maintaining his distance. However, if my opponent wishes to use moments where the characters were at there weakest, then I see no reason not to cite this video: http://youtube.com... Pay special attention to 8:47 and see what you think of Goku's strength/durability. Or better yet, pay special attention to 7:56 – 8:30 on this video: http://youtube.com... Goku may not be harmed by natural substances, but he can be injured and killed. In fact, he has been killed off twice in the series. As for those bean things (senzu beans), they wouldn't do Goku much good. Superman can't run out of energy as the Sun (or stars of equal/greater class) constantly provide him with energy. Superman can keep this fight going thousands of years if he wants to. My opponent has provided no means at which Goku would be able to find out about kryptonite, find kryptonite, or even be able to use it without Superman destroying it with his heat vision, so most of the substance in this part of his rebuttal can be dismissed on those grounds alone. RE STRENGTH: My opponent concedes that Superman is immensely strong in the physical department, but still insist that Goku has the advantage in the energy department. I'm not sure what his definition of energy is, but will remind him that Superman is constantly supplied with energy from the sun (or similar stars), not to mention that Superman could counter Goku's beams with his heat vision. Given that scientist couldn't even measure its intensity (despite that they are able to measure the intensity of the hottest of stars), this would lead us to accept that Superman's "energy" is highly destructive. RE STRATEGY: My opponent adds in a new factor within this battle, but I will prove that Superman has the advantage here. My opponent concludes that "not holding back" justifies Goku using kryptonite, but this is non sequitur as Goku holding back none of his power has nothing to do with wanting to use kryptonite. My opponent continues to state that Goku would not have time to charge up and even supports this with his speed argument, but I have already thoroughly refuted his speed argument, so this can be put as having been refuted as well. As for the pure of heart argument, the spirit bomb doesn't require that the user(s) be flawless (as in they have never committed a mistake). Gohan is listed as having been pure of heart (adult Gohan is too since he rode the nimbus), but ruthlessly tortured Cell rather than killing him. The cost of his selfish actions was Goku's life. So yes, someone with flaws can still be pure of heart. As for Superman III, the Superman clone's version of evil was getting drunk and breaking a few laws. Nothing evil about that (just cartoony). Furthermore, what my opponent forgets to mention was that this being was completely made up of whatever negative energy there was within Superman; he was a being based on Superman's flaws. We know Superman can be harmed by kryptonite due to the fact that he is a FICTIONAL character in our eyes. Goku does not know this and has never even heard of Superman. Furthermore, by my opponent's argument, I could argue that Superman knew everything about Goku merely because we know everything about Goku. My opponent insist that Goku could find the dragonballs with instant transmission, but as I've already shown, Superman can still move faster than Goku can even with instant transmission. Not to mention that Superman could simply go back through time before Goku had even realized that the fight began. A point of my own: Superman actually has a super intellect as shown here: http://img224.imageshack.us... So in terms of who can come up with the best strategy, Superman by a long shot. NOTE: If my opponent attempts to bring up any evidence which he hasn't in the previous rounds, you are obligated to dismiss it. If you don't understand why, I will be more than happy to explain below. Closing Statements: I've shown that Superman is FAR stronger, FAR faster, FAR more durable, and FAR more intelligent than Goku. On top of that, Superman's stamina is limitless. I've addressed all of my opponent's evidence and my opponent hasn't addressed all of mine. I've even pointed out that Superman could simply travel back in time and prevent Goku from ever gaining his powers if he wanted to. No matter how you look at it, Superman has Goku beat. Thus, I urge you vote in favor of the instigator. I thank you (the audience) for reading and I thank my opponent (cody30228) for taking the time to debate (as I had fun). Good night everyone! :D
