Three of the Kaioshins were killed, and the Dai Kaioshin was absorbed, becoming a permanent part of the demon (and thus making him fat in appearence). Unlike most absorbtions, the Dai Kaioshin maintained some control over Buu. The West Kaioshin, the one remaining overgod, killed Bibidi, thus freeing Buu from his control.

As a Changeling, Frieza has numerous stages of power, each with its own distinct appearance. He has four forms total: His first is weak, but wastes little energy; the second is enormous and twice as powerful; the third looks very much like the queen from "Aliens;" and Frieza's fourth, "true" form is small again, but much sleeker (and of course, more powerful).

Bio: Gotenks is the creature that results after Trunks and Goten perform the fusion dance. He has a tendency to over-dramaticize the situation a bit (Alright, a lot), and makes up names for all of his attacks. Since Gotenks is young and naive, he believes that he can defeat anyone.
