How to use it
Pick two entries and a unit in the top row. The three boxes below stay linked. Change any box and the other two update. Try Z total against Super total to see the series gap. The result line prints the equality plus the per unit ratio. Click a table row to load that entry as Entry A with amount 1.
Fan splits like Saiyan 35, Frieza 42 and Cell 70 vary across Toei, Funimation season and fan saga cuts and are left out. Season and arc overview sums are used so totals check out. Movies and specials use separate film tables. Omitted: GT counts, which need a separate series table.
