      @@gallenberger1 its worth noting too as you stated in your video Trunks' Vegeta shows when he plays with his enemies like with Frieza or King Cold, but the important difference is that his cockiness shows when fighting his opponents he knows he'll easily dispatch that have no hope of winning even if they do power up, but when it comes to the androids and especially Cell, his whole world crumbled to ruins and life became an endless struggle for survival because of them, he knew he couldn't afford to take them lightly and to take any chance he can get to destroy them before they become too much. It really adds depth to his character when you see him be extremely confident only to be so cautious and outright terrified of an enemy he came to the past to warn the Z Fighters about despite the FACT that he JUST straight up deleted the most powerful emperor of the universe and his father without so much as btraking a sweat.

    In the late 90s, as children, we didn't have the internet to tell us about these characters. No wikis. So, during the intro to DBZ in English, we saw Trunks standing there. But we were all like, "Who the hell is that?!" and "He looks like a badass, swinging his sword while being a Super Saiyan."
    Finally, after the Frieza Saga and waiting over a year for new episodes to be released, one afternoon on Toonami, he popped up on a Thursday afternoon episode. And we all had to wait an entire weekend, until the following Monday, to finally learn who this fella was. Even after that, we had to wait until Goku appeared to find out his origins, and it blew our adolescent minds.

  • @dantepatel
    @dantepatel 5 месяцев назад +30

    The reason why Toriyama's work is so groundbreaking is because he created a certain formula for action anime that guarantees to give consistent entertainment to an audience. I like to call it "the EDM (electronic dance music)" effect.
    In EDM music, there's a "build-up" and a "drop". Tension is created through different forms of amplitude, then we have the intense climax moment, and the song transforms into a new, more intense, song. This formula manipulates the brain's dopamine system to create a very satisfying outcome. The pleasure from the second half of the song is enhanced not only because it's more intense, but because we were made to wait for it. The added anticipation made things more dramatic, and thus, more pleasurable when we finally got it.
    What Toriyama would do with his writing is similar. He would constantly make Goku incapacitated ON PURPOSE. In the Saiyan arc, Goku is stuck in heaven. In the Namek arc, Goku is stuck in a spaceship. Same arc, Goku is stuck in a healing pod. Android arc, Goku is fighting heart disease. Cell arc, Goku is in the hyperbolic time chamber. We are constantly WAITING for Goku to join the fight.
    In the meantime, we see his new enemies showing off their crazy power and we see his allies struggling and coming closer and closer to defeat by the new enemies. All of this is done to build TENSION. Then when Goku finally joins the fight, the tension is released and we get our epic battle.
    Originally, we thought the Saiyans were the biggest threat. Then, the galactic emperor. Then, robots from the future.
    Immediately after one threat is resolved, Toriyama introduces a new threat. A guy from the future kills the galactic emperor. The tension is released, but IMMEDIATELY we have a new, "stronger", tension being created. Because Trunks needs help!!
    I hope you get what I'm saying here lol. Basically, Toriyama's writing is constant tension build and release- and he finds cool ways to create it. Whether it's with strongs aliens or strong future robots! Any anime with a "training arc" now, which is ALL of them, is using the same formula.
    Tension building = (Goku being unavailable and everyone else proving to be too weak)
    Release = (Goku finally shows up and fights the bad guy)

    I've always found it interesting how radically different Vegeta's relationships are with future and current Trunks. He's almost never hard on kid Trunks but future Trunks gets taken to the woodshed when he gets 5 minutes with him alone in Super. It's like he wants to shield kid Trunks from any sort of life his future iteration went through because he's there for him, and future Trunks needs Vegeta at his maximum whenever he shows up. He's seen what happens if he doesn't rise to the occasion after Cell killed him, so ultimately its two different sides of his love for his son.

    I don't think I've seen anyone mentioned this but 3:34 that hand motion is what android 18 does whenever she successfully beats someone or is taunting them. As a psyc major, this level of PTSD is what fascinates me to no end. He's associating this gesture as a sign of power, something that he seldom feels he has in his future. And then he goes back in time and for the first time fight someone who's so far beneath him, yet he doesn't gloat (too much), doesn't prolonged the fight (not as long as prince of saiyin-alot and son "I don't want to kill you because i want to fight you again" Goku) to revel in the power he has over his opponents. Just that one hand gesture that has basically been ingrained into him, whether he realizes it or not, that proves he has power over his opponents.

    I like Trunks because he is handsome. I know that's a superficial thing, but think about it: up til Trunks shows up, the Z fighters had to work with aliens and bad attitude folks. But Trunks comes in with his kinder attitude and can back it up with power. He's focused on his mission and the Z fighters start the Android and Cell saga with a powerful ally instead of being caught off guard. Trunks brings the team a symbol of hope, not just another figther to join the team.

    Dragon Ball first R&R arc: Terminator 1 without the time travel. There is even an Arnold Schwarzawhoseits looking robot in DB.
    DBZ Android arc: Terminator 2. Trunks is John Connor but he is coming back the past to fix things. Hairstyle kind of resembles John. Future Gohan has a scar like old John Connor (but so does Yamcha lol). Both stories with futures destroyed by robots/android aka sentient being made by humans.
    Also, on May 12th when the Androids attacked in DBZ, that is the same date Arnold(terminator) came back to 1984 to kill Sarah Connor.
    Toriyama definitely watched these movies and gained some inspiration. The Arnold looking robot is a given, along with Jackie Chan, Bruce Lee, Frieza 3rd form (Alien) and Superman looking characters in the DB series. Toriyama was not only pulling inspiration for other manga like many do.
