* NormalFishInATinyPond: Per canon, Gine and Kakarot/Goku are viewed as unremarkable weaklings on Planet Vegeta, but are treated as absolute powerhouses on Earth. Compared to the majority of Earthlings, Gine is a overpowered FlyingBrick who easily claims the title of WorldsStrongestWoman, while Goku is a kid-sized [[TheJuggernaut Juggernaut]] able to singlehandedly curb-stomp full-grown monsters by himself. Gine's {{Flight}} in particular is considered incredible on Earth where it's a rare ability only mastered by a few, as opposed to be Planet Vegeta where it's a weakling by the other Saiyans, but she's easily the strongest woman on Earth.universal skill that practically every Saiyan knows.
