the last time he really fought he was on par with the small cells

when buu absorbed him and gohan buu mentioned that it was for piccolos brains (no homo) and gohan's strength, so by the buu saga he was pretty much irrelevant

Yeah, he was pretty much Batman in the Justice League status after Cell Games. Tactical as hell, but he ain't leading the charge against anyone.

Minimum ascended SSJ but weaker than SSJ2.

I bet Akira would change a few power levels if he had to do it over again. Gohan should be the strongest, then Goku... Piccolo and Vegeta should be at the same level and then everybody else.

No fukkin way. Majin vegeta proved that he was more powerful than goku until ssj3. He outclassed goku when they were both ssj2. There is no reason to think it wasnt intended to be this way.

Toriyama originally intended to leave Goku dead after the Cell Saga and make Gohan the main character from then on out. He only brought Goku back because the Japanese fans were whining.

Honestly though, he pretty much admitted that he made it up as he went along. He originally wanted to end the series after the Freeza Saga, but it was too popular.

Then, he originally intended for Androids 19 and 20 (the fat one and Dr. Gero) to be the main villains of the Android Saga, but his editor thought they were lame and wanted him to make some better villains. So then he created 17 and 18, but his editor still thought they were lame since they just looked like regular people and weren't threatening. After that he created Cell, so 3rd time's the charm.

But I guess the point here is that he really didn't plan the series out at all, he was making it up chapter by chapter. And I'm not hating, he pretty much admitted this.
