It's funny, but at the same time that's the fanbase by the end of this arc. Krillin ends up being the luckiest son of a gun with maybe Gohan and Videl being a close 2nd in relationship goals.
Fun fact: Cell’s line about “A young girl shooting a little boy in the face” is actually how Dragon Ball started and is also how Goku and Bulma met for the first time. You see, Goku had grown up in the mountains and was raised by his grandfather, Gohan. Some time after Gohan passed away, Bulma shows up on the mountain trail in a car, following the signal of the 4 star dragon ball that belonged to Gohan. Goku had never seen a car before since he was raised in the mountains, and mistook it for a demon monster. When Goku started to lift the car over his head, Bulma, believing herself to be being attacked, sticks herself out the window and shoots Goku in the head with a pistol.
That Kamehameha that can be heard in the background on that video Bulma found was Kid Goku attacking the Red Ribbon Army HC, and that Android 16 was actually Dr. Gero's son, Gevo, who died in that attack and thus Gero wanting revenge against Goku. Android 16 was modeled after Gero's son as Trunks stated in episode 44 when they went to the sub lab
@@danielstephens9533 AND it was confirmed in the latest MOVIE!!! I think Toriyama is a TFS fan! edit : I mean that 16 was the son and not that goku killed him.
Two things: 1) “Cornucopia of Namekians” is referring to how a group of slugs is called a cornucopia and Namekians are slug people. 2) If you want more info about Mr. Satan, there is a Death Battle where he fights Dan Hibiki from Street Fighter
Goku "Please tell me that no one here wants a piece of me?" Trunks "Uhh, well when Dad is out of the chamber he'll probably want a swing at you." Goku "......I KNEW it." The fact that Goku has just been assuming Vegeta was gay for him this entire time is hilarious. No wonder he always calls him "Best Buddy" all the time, he's trying to make sure Vegeta knows that he is in the friend Zone.
When Cell is talking about his origin, he was making a refrence to the original Dragon Ball Anime. In the very first episode Bulma shoots Goku in the face with a SMG.
14:38-15:04 I love this scene. Shoutout to the writing because it's simple things like Bulma being completely unbothered by Goku spontaneously appearing and reappearing in her lab and dropping info that serves as an important reminder that she's his oldest friend. Canon Z didn't play with that too much.
I love how they "came" up with Goku and Chi-chi's second kids' name. Gohan in the series has a little brother named Goten. Hence, he's named after Chi-chi trying to get Goku to "Go for ten".
"You are calling them artificial humans" is a reference to how the androids are called in the original "Jinzoningen" Yugioh players might recognize the "Jinzo" part.
Fun fact. Whenever DBZ aired on daytime TV in the USA/UK/Canada the name of Mr. Satan was changed to Hercule. This change is not present on the DVD/Blu-ray/streaming releases or any nighttime airings (like on Adult swim)
yes it was the same for France, i remember finding it a bit weird when they called him Mr.Satan in my VHS, i think i've heard a wile ago that his real name is Mark 🤔
@@ferreiraisabel1655. Toriyama said in an interview not long ago that Mr Satan is his stage name, and that his real name Mark (Maāku being a play on the word Akuma, japanese for Demon, its a pun ). Mark was a street fighter that did so for money to eat, and he entered a Dojo that gave him his Nickname. I cant remember the name, but Mark's teacher was the one who teach him to always speak big and be a big bluff. A certain day, Mark's master stepped a bit too far, and decided to act all big and loud against Mercenary Tao Pai Pai (who we knoe also worked for the Red Ribbon army and almost Killed Goku) Mark's master was killed brutally and Mark was left half dead. Mark decided to never, ever again take a fight that he wasnt 100% sure he would win.
@@ero-senninsama1734 aaah~ so i did remember his real name 😁, i was wondering what "Mark" had to do with demons thanks for the explanation and confirmation 😊 edit: oops i forgot to read the rest, i remember the teacher's fate too, i think i learned it on a Geekdom video 🤔
Fun fact, Mr Satan's name is actually a continuation of Dragon Ball's food pun based naming conventions. He's Mr Seitan, the vegetarian meat substitute, which is fitting for a fighter that's all talk
“It’s starts with a little girl shooting a boy in the face” I believe this is how Dragonball started with Bulma freaking out and shooting Goku in the face
That was a great idea of TFS showing the real "16" as the original son of Dr. Gero, getting killed by Kid Goku many years ago.. + It's princess Trunks (soon) 😁
Funnily enough the person who would be the basis for Android 16 was confirmed to be Dr. Gero’s son in the actual series only a few months ago in the newest movie.
It was also confirmed (or rather, first stated) by Toriyama in an interview years back. I forgot if it was before or after the BoG movie, but it was somewhere around that time period.
5:10 The beginning to Cell's story is a reference to the very start of Dragon Ball. The girl he's talking about is Bulma and the boy is Goku, her first instinct when she met him was to shoot him in the face. 10:15 That's the near-unanimous fan agreed theory on why Dr. Gero had such an obsessive hatred and desire to kill Goku. Goku wiped out the entire Red Ribbon army as a kid and inadvertedly killed Dr. Gero's son.
She shot him not because it was her "first instinct", but because Goku thought her car was a monster and flipped it over, so she was defending herself.
Also regarding the 16 video. He says at the start of it that it's May 12th. The day the Androids began their attack on humanity. Dr Gero began his revenge on the anniversary of his son's death.
Since this episode had a lot of references to Original, pre-Z Dragon Ball, I actually think it's worth you guys reacting to OG dragon ball (as well as the rest of DBZ that DBZA doesn't cover) once you finish DBZA.
Ah yes, Mr. Satan. Unfortunately, he didn't get much chance to shine in the Android Saga, but he gets a lot to do in the Buu Saga... which didn't get abridged... Also, he's in a Death Battle against Dan Hibiki from Street Fighter, and I DEFINITELY recommend checking that one out at some point.
"I'm already pregnant.." "...HOW!?". Actually...i think that is a thing even Goku would say in the original show. 😅 Because.. he is..Goku. Body knows what to do, but not the rest.
That small part with a completely human Android 16 was a callback to the original DragonBall show where Goku as a kid single handedly defeated the Red Ribbon Army. That Kamehameha you heard in the background was Goku kicking ass and taking names.
You have two movies to watch and the 'Cell Vs' mini series before finishing the show. Cell's comment "a young girl shooting a child in the face" refers to the very beginning of the entire franchise-Dragon Ball-where Bulma as a teenager shot Goku as a child in the face (because he was monstrously strong and could flip the car she was in). That background noise in Android 16's film was Goku destroying a military base back when he was a kid in Dragon Ball. And Goku saying 'Go For Ten' is a joke inspired by the 'Hold The Door' scene from Game of Thrones. Everytime he repeats it the line gets closer to Goten-his second son.
In Japan, he was known as Mr. Satan. Supplementary material says his first name is Mark. The American dub names him Hercule to avoid religions connotations. Toriyama liked it so much that he confirmed his name as Mark "Hercule" Satan, as in a stage name.
I always thought you were that couple from ChicagoReacts so I never clicked on your videos, but I'm happy to now realize you're different people. Thanks for enjoying a show I love
@Joel Sasmad Well, in most monarchies, they don't need to have a Coranation, especially when everyone knows who the heir. For example, if a king dies in battle, the heir automatically gets the throne
Oh god, listening to the discussion after the episode and the discussion about Vegeta being King and Trunks prince is killing me. I really hope you two have watched the Broly movie, you will have an incredible time.
Remember what I said back when Trunks first warned everyone about the androids? Remember that date I told you to keep track of? That scene with "16" is why Dr. Gero specifically chose to attack on May 12th in this version of the story.
Team Four Star added Goku being the one who killed Gevo, Gero's son whom Android 16 was modeled on. Original it was mentioned he died to a bullet from a soldier. It is a great change as it gives Gero a reason to blindly hate Goku. Gero made 16 extremely powerful but also non-aggressive so he wouldn't get destroyed in battle. The writers of the recent movie might have made this change canon.
I am here for all these channels watching / rewatching DBZA. It is unironically one of the best pieces of content the internet has ever spawned. TFS are magicians
It's funny that TFS chose to emphasize Goten's conception so much considering that he was a surprise in DBZ. We don't hear a peep about him until he shows up as a new character in the Buu saga.
the video Bulma found was an original animation TFS had done, this is due to info we learned that Android 16 is modelled after his dead son, who was a fighter for the Red Ribbon Army. Back during the Dragon Ball days, Goku fought and destroyed the entire Red Ribbon Army single-handedly and in the original animation done, TFS added the date for Goku's attack to it and likely a correct timezone change too, which fits with what date and time Andoics 19 and 20 appeared. It's REALLY well done but subtle enough that most miss it.
It's funny. A lot of people thought TFS made it up and praised them for it when it was a plot point in FighterZ, but it was from one of Toriyama's notes.
Just to let yall know in the DBZA creator commentary they note that, "but if you had a wig," line is Goku thinking if that would work not that he would actually do that.
I think it's been said in the comments somewhere before, but if not, Chichi and Bulma's strong personalities are why Goku and Vegeta are attracted to them.
Fun fact: that little "Boo!" that throws the book at Chi-Chi is Lanipator (Vegeta, Krillin, Piccolo, etc.) and he is playing the ghost of Goku's grandpa Gohan. I never know that was who it was.
The 'clan' thing can be chosen by the namekian. Kami was from the Dragon Clan, and thus so was king piccolo. When King piccolo died he used up all his his remaining life to create Piccolo as a pristine Namekian Warrior (like Nail). This made Piccolo from the Warrior 'clan' the word Clan is more like choosing Healer, DPS or Tank class in an MMO; clan is probably a bad translation of class. Back to the topic, when piccolo absorbed kami their body class was still Warrior, so even though Piccolo knows how, he doesn't have the ability to do it. Technically Piccolo could spit up a baby Kami to be guardian of Earth but that would take like 10-15 years of raising a dragon clan baby... Warrior babies grow up way faster, Piccolo was only 4 years old when he lost to goku... who was 18-19
Luchadores are masked wrestlers from Mexico. Mr. Satan is parody of Hulk Hogan I believe. Also, remember calling him "Prince Trunks" when you get to the Broly movie, very much relevant.
So in the original Dragonball starts off with Bulma looking for the Dragonballs and meets with Goku who held one from his adopted earth father. Bulma and Goku had a rough start but filled with much hilarity, and yes Bulma did shoot Goku. Also the part with the Android 16 mp4 clip is TeamFourStar's custom made portion to include the clues that 16 is based off of Gero's real son that was in the Red Ribbon army, an enemy faction the old Dragonball gang dealt with back in the day. As you guessed it, Kid Goku attacked the base and the clip sets it up as Goku killing Gero's son, setting up motivation for wanting Goku dead. 16 is later brought back again in FighterZ game where he is rebuilt and Android 21 is the main antagonist who is based off Gero's wife and 16's mother. There's 3 endings, and the more canon extended game ending has A21 split into her more humane self while her evil buu self runs amock. The good A21 shows herself to be very caring and motherly, and cared for 16.
The best part of Mr. Satan is how the TeamFourStar guys felt the need to change basically nothing about his character from the original in the abridged version
14:57 Lowkey one of my favorite moments. It's such a small interaction, but it's easy to forget Bulma and Goku have been friends since they were kids since they never do any casual friend stuff together.
Fun Fact: the audio file was reference to Goku as a kid storming the red ribbon armies base and destroying it. the Kamehameha you heard was Goku during the events of the original Dragonball.
5:15 This might not be clear to you 2 so I will explain it: Dragon Ball started with Goku and Bulma meeting for the first time. Bulma hit Goku with her car and Goku thought Bulma's car was a monster so he picked it up and threw it so Bulma shot him in self defense but it didn't have any effect because by that time Goku was so strong that his body was as hard as steel. 5:33 "go for ten" Goku's second son is called Goten (You seen him for just a few seconds in the super android 13 movie). 9:24 The Red Ribbon Army was the big bad in the first half of Dragon Ball and Goku single handedly crushed the entire organization at the age of 12. The date sounds familar to Bulma because that was the day Goku crushed the HQ of the Red Ribbon Army. You can hear Goku yelling Kamehameha in the background. 16 died that day and it was Goku who killed him accidentally.
Luchador = wrestler in spanish Mr Satan, in case you didnt notice... is the champion of the world martial arts tournament that was talking to Nappa for the Cell Games presented by Heat Tap
Yup. Bulma was right saying to Piccolo and Tien she is longer in this than any of them. Goku meet her in the very first DB episode. After he attacked her car (believing it to be some kind of monster), she freaked out and shot him in the forehead with her gun. Also "go for ten" is TFS' origin of Gohan's little brother name - Goten (fun fact: he looks just like kid Goku and becomes best friends with Trunks)
To clarify, there is a theory that says that 16 could be a model created in the image of the dead son of Doctor Gero, android 20 is also coming to be Android 20.
"Did we miss a tournament?" "Yeah, there was one last month." A small detail I love about TFS's continuity is something the original anime barely touched on compared to the anime: what time of year it is. At this time, we're in mid-May, which we know because it's been several days since "two androids attack on May 12 at 10am." The last month joke lines up because Torunaments are always held in April. The original Red Ribbon Army saga took place after the first tournament of the series, hence why "May 12" in Android 16's video file sounded familiar; it was the day Goku took down the RR Army base. Piccolo's Dad, King Piccolo, took over the world and announced May 9 (my birthday, let's go!) as Piccolo Day, which was just a short while after the 2nd ever tournament. Again, a minor detail, but they do a great job of tying that together in a way that the anime sort of let fall to the wayside.
You guys should react to the mini-episodes leading up to the Cell Games where it's a bunch of other characters from other shows trying to challenge Cell before the tournament starts. They are really damn funny! ♥
Hercule Satan is actually VERY strong for a human being able to break cinder blocks and punch through a literal bus. He’s just weak compared to the Z Warriors
Bethany calling Piccolo exclusively Mr. Piccolo is just precious.

Fun fact: Cell’s line about “A young girl shooting a little boy in the face” is actually how Dragon Ball started and is also how Goku and Bulma met for the first time.

When Goku started to lift the car over his head, Bulma, believing herself to be being attacked, sticks herself out the window and shoots Goku in the head with a pistol.
All that scene was missing was a quick snap to Bulma doing one of those 'somebodies talking about me' sneezes, and _then_ cutting to Goku.
Oh, and the bullet just bounced off him because even as a child he was that strong
"My Story begins at the beginning of all DragonBall.." we would stan a green king, if he wasn't this one.
@@magne7771 was that a thing in early anime?
@@nolyfe4814 still is- it's as common as that goddamn _instant 180 faceplant_ thing
That Kamehameha that can be heard in the background on that video Bulma found was Kid Goku attacking the Red Ribbon Army HC, and that Android 16 was actually Dr. Gero's son, Gevo, who died in that attack and thus Gero wanting revenge against Goku.
Android 16 was modeled after Gero's son as Trunks stated in episode 44 when they went to the sub lab
And the scene is a completely new scene made by TFS to give 16 a proper backstory. They really went all out in the last ten episodes.

The fact that both goku and gohan have martial artist wives is also interesting
It's funny that TFS chose to emphasize Goten's conception so much considering that he was a surprise in DBZ. We don't hear a peep about him until he shows up as a new character in the Buu saga.
the video Bulma found was an original animation TFS had done, this is due to info we learned that Android 16 is modelled after his dead son, who was a fighter for the Red Ribbon Army.
Back during the Dragon Ball days, Goku fought and destroyed the entire Red Ribbon Army single-handedly and in the original animation done, TFS added the date for Goku's attack to it and likely a correct timezone change too, which fits with what date and time Andoics 19 and 20 appeared. It's REALLY well done but subtle enough that most miss it.
One of the reason i love DB and DBZ because all characters are also growing old as i get older..
The video that shows Dr. Gero's son which Android 16 is based on is one of the best things Team Four Star created that was never in the original show.
It's funny. A lot of people thought TFS made it up and praised them for it when it was a plot point in FighterZ, but it was from one of Toriyama's notes.
Just to let yall know in the DBZA creator commentary they note that, "but if you had a wig," line is Goku thinking if that would work not that he would actually do that.
I think it's been said in the comments somewhere before, but if not, Chichi and Bulma's strong personalities are why Goku and Vegeta are attracted to them.
Fun fact, the "go for ten, go for ten!" is a joke on the name of Goku's next kid: Goten.
something you do miss since you haven't seen the original, Goku's second son is named Goten, "Go for Ten" she yells, "Go For TEN!"
Fun fact: that little "Boo!" that throws the book at Chi-Chi is Lanipator (Vegeta, Krillin, Piccolo, etc.) and he is playing the ghost of Goku's grandpa Gohan. I never know that was who it was.
literally my favorite DBZA episode, so legendary
9:50 artificial humans is the term used in the original japanese, the dubs mixed cyborg and android.
When dende whistles at Gohan you hear piccolo say ow it's a reference to the lord slug movie
Oh god I just realised that ChiChi saying "Go for ten" when Goku's record is 9 is why they named their second son "Goten".
The 'clan' thing can be chosen by the namekian.
Kami was from the Dragon Clan, and thus so was king piccolo. When King piccolo died he used up all his his remaining life to create Piccolo as a pristine Namekian Warrior (like Nail). This made Piccolo from the Warrior 'clan' the word Clan is more like choosing Healer, DPS or Tank class in an MMO; clan is probably a bad translation of class. Back to the topic, when piccolo absorbed kami their body class was still Warrior, so even though Piccolo knows how, he doesn't have the ability to do it. Technically Piccolo could spit up a baby Kami to be guardian of Earth but that would take like 10-15 years of raising a dragon clan baby... Warrior babies grow up way faster, Piccolo was only 4 years old when he lost to goku... who was 18-19
Luchadores are masked wrestlers from Mexico. Mr. Satan is parody of Hulk Hogan I believe. Also, remember calling him "Prince Trunks" when you get to the Broly movie, very much relevant.
nappa sure got ballsy with how he got vegeta swept up in the moment
I love Mr. Popo’s response to Dende not taking his s**t.
I like how whistling for Gohan hurt piccolo's ears. It's the little things!
So in the original Dragonball starts off with Bulma looking for the Dragonballs and meets with Goku who held one from his adopted earth father. Bulma and Goku had a rough start but filled with much hilarity, and yes Bulma did shoot Goku.
Also the part with the Android 16 mp4 clip is TeamFourStar's custom made portion to include the clues that 16 is based off of Gero's real son that was in the Red Ribbon army, an enemy faction the old Dragonball gang dealt with back in the day. As you guessed it, Kid Goku attacked the base and the clip sets it up as Goku killing Gero's son, setting up motivation for wanting Goku dead. 16 is later brought back again in FighterZ game where he is rebuilt and Android 21 is the main antagonist who is based off Gero's wife and 16's mother. There's 3 endings, and the more canon extended game ending has A21 split into her more humane self while her evil buu self runs amock. The good A21 shows herself to be very caring and motherly, and cared for 16.
“But you know dads right?” “Goku killed mine” kid Goku was a menace
Don't forget you have to watch all the "Cell vs" videos before the next episode!
Let's hope they read you
The kamehameha in the background was from the Old dragon ball where kid goku blowed up the red ribbon army's HQ
The best part of Mr. Satan is how the TeamFourStar guys felt the need to change basically nothing about his character from the original in the abridged version
Cell's dialogue is some of the best material in this whole series.
The realization at the intro is fantastic
Edit: "prince trunks" ooh boy, broly movie soon
Dende calling piccolo, nail is great
I’ve watched team 4 stars so many times I just realized the back door joke Lmao
I envy you guys watching this for the first time, i'm very much looking forward to hearing and seeing your reactions to the upcoming episodes.
14:57 Lowkey one of my favorite moments. It's such a small interaction, but it's easy to forget Bulma and Goku have been friends since they were kids since they never do any casual friend stuff together.
Fun Fact: the audio file was reference to Goku as a kid storming the red ribbon armies base and destroying it. the Kamehameha you heard was Goku during the events of the original Dragonball.
TFS didnt get that far, but when goku's next kid is born, his canon name is Goten.
The ka me ha me ha you heard was a reference to goku destroying the red ribbon army in original dragon ball series
Fun fact. Mr Satan is basically the exact same person as he is in the actual show
"Our story starts with a young girl, shooting a little boy in the face". Ah, Dragon Ball episode 1. When Goku and Bulma first met, and she shot him.
5:15 This might not be clear to you 2 so I will explain it: Dragon Ball started with Goku and Bulma meeting for the first time. Bulma hit Goku with her car and Goku thought Bulma's car was a monster so he picked it up and threw it so Bulma shot him in self defense but it didn't have any effect because by that time Goku was so strong that his body was as hard as steel.
5:33 "go for ten" Goku's second son is called Goten (You seen him for just a few seconds in the super android 13 movie).
9:24 The Red Ribbon Army was the big bad in the first half of Dragon Ball and Goku single handedly crushed the entire organization at the age of 12. The date sounds familar to Bulma because that was the day Goku crushed the HQ of the Red Ribbon Army. You can hear Goku yelling Kamehameha in the background. 16 died that day and it was Goku who killed him accidentally.
In canon I think Gero's son died in battle but it was neat for TFS to alter that up and make it personal.
Luchador = wrestler in spanish
Mr Satan, in case you didnt notice... is the champion of the world martial arts tournament that was talking to Nappa for the Cell Games presented by Heat Tap
Yup. Bulma was right saying to Piccolo and Tien she is longer in this than any of them. Goku meet her in the very first DB episode. After he attacked her car (believing it to be some kind of monster), she freaked out and shot him in the forehead with her gun. Also "go for ten" is TFS' origin of Gohan's little brother name - Goten (fun fact: he looks just like kid Goku and becomes best friends with Trunks)
3:43 4:05 The hot asian wife bit is a very specific reference to a pro wrestler called Karl Anderson from his 1st stint with WWE
To clarify, there is a theory that says that 16 could be a model created in the image of the dead son of Doctor Gero, android 20 is also coming to be Android 20.
It's not a theory, 21 literally talks about that in FighterZ.
"Did we miss a tournament?"
"Yeah, there was one last month."
A small detail I love about TFS's continuity is something the original anime barely touched on compared to the anime: what time of year it is.
At this time, we're in mid-May, which we know because it's been several days since "two androids attack on May 12 at 10am." The last month joke lines up because Torunaments are always held in April.
The original Red Ribbon Army saga took place after the first tournament of the series, hence why "May 12" in Android 16's video file sounded familiar; it was the day Goku took down the RR Army base.
Piccolo's Dad, King Piccolo, took over the world and announced May 9 (my birthday, let's go!) as Piccolo Day, which was just a short while after the 2nd ever tournament.
Again, a minor detail, but they do a great job of tying that together in a way that the anime sort of let fall to the wayside.
Well at least all the citizens now know the whole story of DBZ unlike everyone in the regular show.
You guys should react to the mini-episodes leading up to the Cell Games where it's a bunch of other characters from other shows trying to challenge Cell before the tournament starts. They are really damn funny! ♥
"Pince Trunks!"
* snort * ... When is the Broly Movie?...
Hercule Satan is actually VERY strong for a human being able to break cinder blocks and punch through a literal bus. He’s just weak compared to the Z Warriors
That’s fair 😊
