• Why Mexicans Love Drag...
Legitimately one of my earliest thoughts after Toriyama passed was “oh god, Mexico is gonna gonna have a day of mourning”
On the positive side of things, the cartel is taking a break from their operations at least.
@@ginogatash4030is it a true story?! Or are just folks talking
@@ze_kangz932 there's no way of truly knowing but let's hope
Algorithm boutta bless this dude.
You know I had never thought about how relatable cartoons were to me while growing up as a mexican, but it does make a lot of sense when you explain the values we seek to relate to.
Incredible video, tienes un fan nuevo.
Love how down-to-Earth this was, I had zero clue that the love for Dragon Ball ran THIS deep in Mexico.
You seeing your dad as Goku kinda made me realize just how many people probably look towards Goku as a role model. That never really occurred to me before this video, I always just thought "Oh he's popular because of the cool factor." Now I know that factor comes from his resilience, both physically and emotionally, that helps get people back on their feet no matter how often they're knocked down.
Thank you for your analysis. Akira Toriyama will forever live on through his works.
Dragon ball was a family obligation for me, not that I'm complaining. We would rewatch that religiously.
I didn’t grow up with Toonami but i always loved visiting my grandparents in Mexico and having the chance to watch Spanish dubbed DBZ
Its not only México but all of South América.
Bro nailed it. 2nd Gen Mexican american here, loved visiting my family in mexico and we really got into Dragon Ball back in the day.
My western friends never could understand, and went on to work within disney to work on cartoons, and never understood why I prefered anime over the cartoons that aired in america while we were young. Fairly Oddparents felt unrelatable because it was a spoiled child just wishing for things to curve his lonileness when as a latino I couldn't relate to that because I didn't really see him going through any actual hardship as someone that would grow up the way we did, and we got our ass beat and jumped often, when this spoiled little whitekid is like "oh boo hoo i'm sad because i don't get everything i want" yeah he was like what 10? but werent we all at some point?
anyway rambling, Toriyama will be missed but his legacy lives on.
Isn't the main plot point that Timmy got the fairies because his parents were stupid/neglectful and his school life was terrible? He had his spoiled moments, but I think anyone would if they had genies who could grant wishes.
I mean yeah thats how he got them, but those are like first world problems considering they were only relatable to white suburbians, not trying to say that doesnt exist outside of it, but not the the point, you can't really take any lessons from that growing up if you were in more dire situations. Which is why anime is superior , it teachs people to rise to the occasion and not wallow in self pity and selfiness, which most cartoons are about that these days self congratulatory nonsense that elevate only self, which in anime is like a filler arc lol.

Not the point of the reply, Timmy is not relatable to a hispanic kid. he comes off as super entitled with first world problems.
He might relate to a surburban kid in america, but not any poc.
I think that’s why that, even if I do like cartoons of various nations, anime hits differently. And I’ll never forget that my first ever DBZ episode that I saw from beginning to end was the one with Arlia.
Sailor Moon and Pokémon this was NOT.
Algorithm just blessed this dude. He deserves it.
they had me in the first half... i was gonna quit but had to do it for Sensei Akira!
This was an amazing video man, it was really great to hear the depth behind Latin Americas love for DB. I feel like it added another dimension to my love for DB. Thank you for sharing 👍
amazing video. as a white american who was raised alone, the themes of something like fairly odd parents was a lot more resonant and its fascinating to hear the other side of it. Thank you for this! (ofc db is 900000% better than shit like fop)
In Brasil we have a similar mentality, the values Anime like DBZ, Saint Seiya, Naruto and many others provided really resonated with us.
Spongebob and Simpsons are popular here due to them being genuinely funny shows.
Some channels here used to shill stuff from Hanna Barbera and other American Cartoons but none caught on, the only Cartoon that was popular for a short amount of time was the Justice League that is until the Buu arc kicked in at full force.
finally, something good to watch on my lunchbreak at the cartel
When i told my brothers that akira passed away they couldn't believe it, it really affected us Mexicans... great video, i hadn't thought about some of this
Hahaha, I did love those Goku vs Jiren posters. Nice video!
Back in 98, a buddy of mine had a full.set of Spanish translated Dragon Ball GT Cards! All holo and were just beautiful. I was sad some punk stole them that day. 😢
Great stuff man and as a black and Puerto Rican person this made me think of how my house hold life made me like certain things
This was awesome man, thanks for the video
Awesome video bro
great video, I remember they used to buy me the whole sagas as CDs being sold at the flea market, I'm from Venezuela and it is just as culturally impactful as it was in México
Those flyers look legitimately dope af🔥🔥
This is a great take. I never understood why the US was so far behind in terms of anime compare to LATAM (& specially South America) when I emigrated back in 1999. You share the final piece of info... it was far cheaper to license the stories in LATAM than in the US. Travel anywhere around the world anime was already huge in the mid to late 1990s the only aberration was the US.
I've so glad I was born abroad and then moved to the States. It just makes you appreciate things a lot more.
Same thing here in South Africa
concise and short video, excellent content.
The way you presented this is great you cover all the superficial points and then go deep on each of them. I remembered i went to the special airing of the last episode and it still Is one of the greatest moments i ever been a part of . The amount and sense of community It created It was really like seeing the match of the Century of boxing like forgetting Its a Cartoon....
How do you create your presentations?
Do you use Canva?
What do you do for a living? Are you a teacher or instructor ?
great video
as someone who isn't from latin america this video was informative on how you guys grow up and live your lives
you made me also think on why anime is more popular in my part of the world than cartoons,
correct me if i am wrong but i dont think releatability seems to be the only factor, i noticed for example that new gen of anime is quit popular in latin america too, and the theme of family isn't as strong in them as much as DBZ
I think power of nostalgia plays a massive role in that, anime was very cheap to export at the time so dubbing studios had a bigger incentive to invest in anime and you kinda assimilated some Japanese culture through those old animes which made you more susceptible to new anime kinda like what happened in Italy and other European countries alike, obviously not all animes or cartoons for that matter will be equally relatable or unrepeatable to everyone equally, but apparently DragonBall just came at the right time at the right place to make the biggest cultural impact in Latin America especially, which on top of being something kinda never seen before made it extremely attention grabbing.
And also, if we're being totally honest tv animation in the states was kinda crappy compared to Japanese offerings, both were pretty cheap but pre 90's American cartoons were just always boring without fail, like it says something about industry giants like Annah Barbera that Scooby Doo is the only cartoon of theirs that actually stuck in public conscience and has any relevance in current culture.
Tv anime was much more ambitious abd daring despite their limited resources and reach while the US settled for disposable little distractions of very little artistic merit that especially in the 80's turned to glorified commercials, not that it's all bad but it's hard to find any American tv cartoon from before the 90's genuinely entertaining, comedies weren't funny, and action was dull, He Man was straight up not allowed to actually hit his opponents unless they were inanimate objects of some kind with his sword or fists, resorting instead to just throwing his enemies around, and it was all very babyfied all around.
Compare that to even the less than stellar shipmates fights in Dragonball and it looks like a fucking masterpiece in comparison, genuine drama, pathos, and action, no American action cartoon from the time could compete, American animation has been getting more ambitious since the 90's but back then you weren't gonna get anywhere near the same type of thrilling action found in anime, that helped making anime more appealing to non English speaking countries.
Even superheroes were extremely tame, silly, and watered down when animated or even adapted in live action, all the effort was saved for theatrical movies, with animation mostly stuck in family friendly territory while Japan was already getting a much more varied animated output since the 70's.
In my country, Italy, the most well remembered nostalgic cartoons are all anime, from Ufo Robot Grendizer, to the likes of One Piece or Dragon Ball, anime studios tried while to make something that would leave a truly lasting impact while American studios weren't allowed to, this I think helped tremendously the success if anime abroad.
Obviously there are exceptions like Top Cat being popular in Latin America for whatever reason, but that's got more to do with the localization of the original show than the show itself.
The theme of family surely isn't the only relatable theme. And in the case of family-related reliability, it might be more the case that American cartoons lean more into individualistic values and adventure for the sake of adventure which Japanese anime do much less rather than Japan overtly having these values anymore, the way that something reads for a culture as a whole can be much more subtle than the blatant tones and themes present. What I mean is it might be more important that one appeals less to the general public than it is that the other appeals to them more.
I really learned alot from this video man. Keep it up!
Thanks for making this video bro. U brought up alotta points which paints a very clear Picture. Kudos.
amazing video man!
This is incredible
This was well-put together and engaging.
This was deep. It helped me understand myself better.
great video! i did always wonder why Mexicans and Latin Americans love Dragon Ball so much and now it all makes sense.
Thanks!
great video compa!
Good video bro, shined some light on something I've wondered about before.
I truly feel like if he was designed differently he wouldn't be as popular, there's just something about him that fits in Latin culture.
I feel like dragon ball had a particular art style that resonates especially to Latin Americans in a way a lot of anime don't really which shows how Toriyama was able to create a work that can be universally understood by many, it also helps that Goku is an alien so he can blend in with anyone really.
Just subscribed! I’m your 100th sub. Great insightful video 😊
Also we have very different values with regards to vulgarity. Dragon Ball (the OG show) aired on public tv without censorship. Mexican's sense of humour is based a lot on vulgarity and sex jokes, it would've been inconceivable for Dragon Ball to air uncensored in the US without a massive moral panic in the mid nineties.
Great video
I had a conversation with my buddy about this. One thing that unites Mexicans. Black people. Japanese people. And more. Dragon ball
I find different countries relationships with anime fascinating.
Hispanic Dragon Ball z fans also make the best DBZ memes. And this coming from a black guy from New Orleans.
I still remember when I first saw the clips of all those people watching the ToP every week during my senior year of High School. I would honestly love to attend one of those just to experience the hype with so many others.
its the same for us Filipinos. its mostly because we were called monkeys by opressors, we had to fight for our freedom. we had to make friends and be family with other people and races that lived in our land , which is like the Z warriors in a way.
the values and the lifetyle are all relatable. goku being taken care of by his granpa gohan who is not his relative. gohan being pushed to study hard by chichi. having a rich friend like bulma. all those stuff are just completely like real feelings of real people
as a child already it was so clear the huge difference in variety japanese animation had in comparison to western cartoons. anime was way more all over the place and creative. American cartoons were so basic and predictable
Bro, your dad was totally Goku :3
11:43 "el cumbias" lmao
I love the dub en español latino the voice of goku in Spanish so iconic en vegeta too mario castañeda an René García those two voices carry my childhood
DBZ is indeed a Mexican thing fo sho! Way more than USA and probably even Japan. In the 80s and 90s, there were no Mexican cartoons. Only Spanish dub anime and Spanish dub American cartoons. But Mexicans were all about the anime in the 80s and 90s. Usa didnt even know wtf anime was at this point
Nostalgia bro just admit it !!! 😂😂😂
🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Gee why thanks a lot Amigo.
indigenous people in mexico love dragon ball too
Bro nailed tha shi de clavadito
how bro only got 27 subs??? (28 now)
2.4k now 🙂
I'm continuing watching dragonball super and the episode was about Goku going behind Milk's back to go train with Whis. Meanwhile Milk is trying to convince Gohan from not letting Pan learn martial arts and her and Bulma keep on shitting on their husbands. In the end Goku runs after Whis and Bulma calms down Milk with the planning of a party. This was so much like a telenovela I mean ... No wonder latinos eat this up
This isn't super related but honestly Milk is one of the best renames of a DragonBall character I've ever seen, it's crazy how the localization team picked up on the food/item theming behind names, they could've easily just settled for some random Spanish name but they went out of their way to have it make sense for the world of Dragon Ball.
Who is Milk again?
@@ZX-Gear I go more in depth in my reply to OP about the topic but basically Milk=Chi-Chi.
Because its good lol.
Everyone loves DBZ Mexicans just think they love it more.
Everyone loves dragon ball. If you don't go see a mental hospital.
Anyone know where i can watch the spanish dub of dbz? Im having a hard time finding anything online
Nice video, but is simpler than that, the voice acting, the dubbing, was high quality in Latam, like any Disney or Pixar movie would get in the US.
DB in English is poor quality, tolerable at best, a lot of people in English dub still enjoy the crazy stories, but never get the mass popularity because voice acting matters in making the world credible and characters relatable. Imagine DB with the quality voice acting than Frozen got, that is DB in Latin american spanish. So is huge in all Latin american countries, not just mexico.
lmao i wish i could go to a jiren goku fight wtf
think it's unnecessary to rethink the reason...and one thing is, if you like anime, another, is not like toons
I'll say it like this, Latam, is angry with the supposed Timmy from the new 3D show, many called the movie of paramount ,imaginary friends ...mansion foster in latam, shaggy ultra instint exists because of a meme in Spanish dubbed...MANY OF US ARE STILL ANGRY because Warner changed actors of scooby doo in Spanish just to make them sound like gringos actors , it bother us the way it sounds now (the same thing was done to Jake the dog, of Adventure Time lost a lot of jokes for us, because the original Jake in Spanish He improvised a lot, LATAM IS FURIOUS WITH THE CHANGE OF ACTOR).. the gringos hate scrappy, LATAM LOVES HIM...because of his dubbing. Do you think ed edd and edy is daring? They don't know the Spanish dubbing, the same with courage the cowardly dog. knd? latam loves it BECAUSE OF ITS INVENTED DUBBING IN SPANISH. but USA...which is its main target, doesn't care much about knd. just some examples of toons. OF SPANISH DUBBING FOR HISPANOAMERICA IN SOMETHING ANIMATED... do you realize that the Spanish dubbing is the biggest difference in a product, even if it is the same product, in 2 countries, let's say... USA... and Mexico? It is no coincidence that the impact differs in Latin America and the USA...that's all I'll say.
Um White boy here...we watched it also. Y'all gotta stop acting so special. It's really the Japanese we should be talking about.
You really gotta do this? And I’m saying this as another white American, people have their own ways of appreciating things.
Mexico literally had government sponsored watch parties with hundreds of people in local town squares all over the country watching DB Super episodes. People made actual bets on the Goku vs Jiren fight, and watch parties became such a big thing in Mexico that Toei animation had to ask state officials to stop just airing episodes out in public. Mexicans definitely have a different relationship to Dragon Ball than suburban Americans do and acting like it just boils down to “we watch it too” kinda misses the point.
Mexicans are violently obsessed with Dragon Ball in a way whites aren’t. To be blunt, the reason every other anime fandom hates Dragon Ball fans is because of the Mexicans (and blacks lol) going around saying every other anime is shit because “they can’t beat Goku.” Why do they act like this? Well, look at how they run their country.
Dude I mean this wholeheartedly, but if you're jealous of the attention other cultures are getting then make something that fits in your culture yourself, your appreciation is in your hands.
Talking about how Mexican culture is influenced by DB does not detract from or compete with Japanese or American experience. It enhances it. DB has influenced countless lives, it's so much bigger than any one of us individually. We're just getting another brick in the wall lined up here.
America is a very individualistic country so fairy odd parents is a perfect for America and i actually like thay show but being caribeño y garifuna American i love anime i relate to anime y eastern culture growing up dbz is something i love growing up and playing rpg games it has shaped me so much western culture alot of is very hollow almost empty all major of friends are caribeño. I can sum it up like this Dragon ball and the toriyama is the bridge 🌉 that brings everyone together he panned the way for the west to get into anime rip toriyama he was everything.💙🧿🧿🪬🙏
Yeah because Goku reflects the lifestyle of most Latin Americans in which is a warrior and not rich just like how kid goku became from a little poor kid raised in an urban place to becoming a god; this is literally in the Bible because the real Israelites are in tribulations and poverty but eventually some will go through the fire struggles and become a God. The Bible says that the real Israelites are Gods of the earth; this is how I see dragon ball and why I liked dragon ball more than any cartoon or anime out there.
😂 I used to watch DBZ in Español cuz I didn’t have cable 😊
keep making videos dude, loved this video and looking forward to more
