CONFIRMED PLOTHOLE: Android 8/Android 16

[Warmmedown]

Android 8 is brought back to life after the Earth (GOAT planet btw) is destroyed. He's shown in DB Super and in the Z anime.

But Android 16 couldn't be brought back to life, because he wasn't made from a human. Plothole? Or did Shenron lie? Fucking snake.

cry dbz fans

Android 8 appeared to be made from a human based on the Frankenstein-like appearance. Likely the reason.

 

[Warmmedown]

Toriyama is a genius.

I beg his forgiveness

 

[Power Level Guy]

Android 8 has a human base

Android #17 also gave Ki to Goku’s Genki Dama. Another plot hole.

He has life force energy by being a living organism, so that would suffice. Could also prove the spirit bomb is not based on ki.

Funny thing is with Dr.Hedo probably
has the means to re-create 16 if he’s
presented the challenge to.

Weird. I always took it as #8 being fully robot.

Lol no, Ki itself is life energy. Seventeen and Eighteen clarify that they lack life energy in the Moro arc.

Genki is just general energy. The Genkidama takes all sorts of energy including life energy (Ki) and the artificial energy of the androids.
