I feel like you missed a ding when Piccolo called Gohan a "Good kid" after he heard Vegeta call Trunks a bastard. It showed that even Piccolo thought that was cold of Vegeta, and as Gohan's godfather, he didn't want Gohan to feel as unloved as Trunks. This happens in the 38th episode at 3:27.
I’m curious have there been other literal godfathers and godmothers in fiction. We’ve had god Waifus and Husbandos, but I haven’t seen much in terms of GODparents.
I think the conversation Piccolo has with Kami before they fuse should be it's own ding. mainly for the fact that Piccolo is not only trying to get the power buff so he can save lives rather than out of selfishness, but he also get's angry at Kami for trying to put the fusion off while people are dying, that is until Kami tells him the real reasons why he's reluctant to fuse.
It is also worth mentioning that Piccolo *does* see that as a valid reason to not wanting to fuse since was he "kind of a dick", but that the current situation was more important that their own issues. It may not be ding worthy, but it's important to take note of it.
Super also arguably made a reference to the Sixth Rule of Popo’s Training, especially since they zoom in on Mr. Popo’s eyes as he threatens to banish Vegeta
Funny thing is that initially they didn't plan to keep Nail around. As he said when they fused, he was supossed to eventually dissapear in his subconcious, but they had to much fun with it that they decided to keep it and double it down with Kami later. Though they do admit it was a bit of a cruch to have Nail and Kami there to make comedic moments. 😅
@@Dadan-dani belive in the creator commentary they said the disappearing into the subconscious thing was a potential out for if they didn't want to keep the joke, as it was basically just a thing for piccolo to do while he was alone, similar to ghost nappa
Funny thing is, before dbza a high school buddy of mine joked that Nail and Kami were why it seemed Piccolo was going ever so slightly more insane as the series went. XD
I'd say letting Vegeta get humbled is Lawful Good. His pride causes way too much emotional, physical, and financial collateral damage, although it also prevents him from destroying the planet out of spite.
I love the depiction of Piccolo in the abridged series. I really like Piccolo in the normal series but TFS gave Piccolo something to do by putting Nail and Kami in his head to talk to since in the normal series outside of Gohan and his family as well as Goku, Piccolo doesn't really interact with anyone much. In my opinion Piccolo is an amazing character and I think that TFS hit the nail on the head with the way he is depicted.
Like I said with the last DBZA Piccolo video, he remains my favorite character in Dragon Ball and is one of the most solid characters in the series overall. Just the growth of him turning from the final true villain in the OG series to becoming a unofficial member of the Son family, even competing with Krillan for being the best family friend, just enthralls me
I hope we get at least a mini episode about the androids or something. They may not have much, but they're some of the best characters in the series regardless.
@@TheLoadingCrewyou can’t say next year so close to the news year considering you could be joking and mean January or do you mean like end of 2025 P.S love the vids
Always saw Piccolo was more of a "Cool Uncle" type in a tv sitcom family dynamic of sorts than a Godfather, but that works too. Also the thought of Piccolo looking like Marlon Brando does make me chuckle. P.S. Huh. Now that's getting me thinking if a Godfather alignment video be interesting to see happen.
Hey Stuart. I don't have much to say about the Episode, Piccolo is a great character in both canons. What I actually want to say is that I shared the Waifu Handbook with my game master, and his opinion is, and I quote "This is the most brilliantly made trash I've ever read! I love it!" So take that compliment as you will.
Ngl it’s between Piccolo and Cell for my favorite depictions thar TFS did of Toriyama’s characters. They made Piccolo so incredibly fun and ESPECIALLY after Nail and Kami fused with him. Makes me wish there was a spin-off with just a whole lot of Piccolo shenanigans 😩
4:15 I’d put the “maintaining your friend’s lie to their spouse about training that will help save the world” as somewhere in the chaotic good range, myself.
Piccolo has always been a personal favorite of mine and his dynamic with Kami and Nail in DBZA had me laughing myself into an asthma attack all through college. His interactions with Vegeta are hilarious, his friendship with Goku is genuine, and I love his interactions with everyone else. Him and Tien, the team stoics, betting over who screws things into oblivion between Krillin and Vegeta is something I never demanded or expected but absolutely kept craving more of when I actually received it. Piccolo is so much fun throughout the series. Having Nail and Kami remain inside his head took advantage of a lack of need for lip flaps to write in some additional comedy and to explore Piccolo's personality even more. Dragon Piccolo - I refuse to call him Orange Piccolo, dumbest name ever - being a thing in Super has had me hyped as hell for getting my favorite green giant back off the bench and onto the battlefield. As for DBZA Piccolo, I will always come back for second or 9,000th helpings of this surly but sweet slug. On a personal note, I have to agree with you on one thing: Piccolo is more like Gohan's godfather than a father. He was Gohan's first martial arts teacher, his friend, his mentor, and without a doubt a member of the Son family in his own right. Piccolo is without a doubt family to Gohan. But he's not the boy's "real dad." That's just people taking a joke too far and misinterpreting a gag or a meme as the canon interpretation of a character dynamic. That does not subtract from the touching and heartfelt moments between Piccolo and Gohan. What they have is its own familial relationship and I love it. It's a model for how to be a good mentor - aside from throwing a child at a plateau of course - and helps me in forming a good relationship with my friends' kids along with my nieces and nephews. Hell, I based my dynamic with my nieces on how Piccolo interacts with Gohan and it has yielded some great results since I'm not naturally good with kids. As always, thanks again for another informative and entertaining video. Piccolo holds a very special place in so many people's hearts and hearing you talk about him with so much joy and amusement is some of the love that our Godly Green Giant deserves so much more of.
The idea that more male role models equates to being a better person is a myth. Just as long as the role models are good, it doesn't matter if they're male, female, or nonbinary. I've had practically no male role models in my life. And I turned out well.
it's really not a myth. I also made sure my language said "positive male role models" and mentioned it in terms of statistics rather than certainties. but you're correct in the sense that multiple good role models are more important than just having an adult male in your life
Piccolo is such a hypocrite in the finale, he murdered Goku and kidnapped Gohan with the intention to turn him into his minion for world-conquest/world-saving and that was all fine and dandy; when Goku does it, he's the worst dad ever. I wish Goku had pointed that out when Piccolo is lambasting him, something like "So how is this any different than when you forced Gohan to fight Getes and that big guy exactly?".
Piccolo was 1) evil (at least in TFS’s version he was) and 2) still an immature person. This is Gohan’s FATHER throwing him to the wolves. Tl;dr Piccolo saw Gohan as a pawn and didn’t know better. Goku saw Gohan’s potential as an ace in the hole and should’ve known better
@@pvg342 That is really not an excuse, Piccolo was fully grown in the Saiyan Saga and should be held to the same standards that people want to hold Goku to especially if they want to say Piccolo is more of a father than Goku. Add to this, the fact that no one ever acknowledges that Gohan in the TFS version is a Stockholm Syndrome case; really ruins the whole "Piccolo is real dad" thing don't it...
@@Luxord5294 You responded to my second point, but didn’t address the first. Most people see that version of Piccolo as a bad guy who has to unlearn a lot of bad behaviors. Goku, as the protagonist and moral compass across Dragon Ball, is held to a higher standard, especially when it comes to how he treats his 10 year old son vs how is erstwhile enemy treated Gohan when he was 4?
@TheLoadingCrew (fixed it) Since I got your attention, I like this plug cause u let it flow into the review rather than just stopping it. I thought it was Clever.
Speaking as somebody who has had a kinship for Piccolo since I was basically a little kid anytime DBZ showed up, I always enjoy it when there's a positive character in media like this. Sure, Piccolo can be cold and often can be distant but really his quiet demeanor and often aloof nature can just been seen as defense for him since really he is the only one of his kind on Earth and probably can't be understood from a personal stance. He has a reason to act the way he does unlike Vegeta who tends to be really cold just because. Sure he grew pass that but the guy's pride is very fragile and his false confidence can really bite him if he pushes it too far. Piccolo meanwhile is usually cautious and often self aware when he's at his limits. Not only that but despite not being his father he does try give a good influence on those like Gohan who he only helped out because Earth was in trouble but he kept being a strong influence after the fact and that to me saids alot about him as a person. It's just the abridged series takes that trait and overflow it inward to the point where people just think he's more a father than Goku which really undersells Goku as a character and treats him as some unaware, self obsessed punk kid. Plus I'm surprised you didn't mention this but NEWS FLASH: This is action anime and Toriyama has admitted he doesn't know how to do things like romance because his greatest strength is being a gag manga writer. The scenes we see where they act more intimate like say Bulma and Vegeta are anime only because stuff like that hardly show up in the manga. Plus this is 90s anime which means you're gonna see alot of abuse because Vegeta is abusive to future Trunks and kid Trunks even Piccolo often gets this treatment but everyone seems to forget that, because this is a shonen anime which means it's aimed at young boys and young teen boys which means you're not really going to see alot of the intimate moments in said anime.
Alright, now that the vid is public and I’m not driving around for work reasons, *IT’S KRILLIN SHILLIN TIME!* How can you possibly do a complete set of DBZA alignment vids and *not* include Krillin? Sure, he’s not at the center of the fights, and sure, he’s a non-factor during Radditz. But during the actual plot moments of the DBZA story he’s involved more than anyone else! Who tells Chi-Chi about Piccolo taking Gohan? KRILLIN! Who gathers the Z-warriors? KRILLIN! Who is the one Z-warrior to survive Nappa and Vegeta? KRILLIN! Who’s the one to go to Namek, knowing combat and strategy well enough to keep Bulma, Gohan, and Dende alive? KRILLIN! Who makes two out of three wishes on the Namekian Dragon Balls? KRILLIN! Who finds Gero’s lab? KRILLIN! Who makes the call to prevent a second cell from becoming a problem? KRILLIN! Who saves 18’s life? KRILLIN! Who wishes 17 and 18 back to humanity (mostly)? KRILLIN! WHO BRINGS THE SENZU BEANS TO KEEP EVERYONE ALIVE CONSTANTLY?! *THE BALD BADASS HIMSELF, KRILLIN!*
Its kind of wild that Piccolo in Z is basically just what Kami was supposed to be in original Dragonball. He's basically acting as a legitimate guardian of earth, down to the spiritual stuff. Yes he unloads a lot of that on Dende, but he still acts as a guide and mentor for him as well.
Piccolo is a character that i think they did better in DBZA... Mostly by actually making full use of Nail and Kami. They help explain how Piccolo changes.
if I can't have a threesome with hot twins in my video games, that game is woke trash! also! I need more sexy brown women and a hard alignment system for my games or they're woke trash!
@TheLoadingCrew two women is too much for me, you absolute stallion lol. My question to gaming is why would you choose to alienate the people who are giving you money consistently to please people who BOAST about hating you and your company for "Muh Capitalism bad money evil" KNOWING it hurts you and your competitors.
Can I request Kain & Raziel from The Legacy of Kain series? The channel @StrictlyFantasy has covered the series extensively, so collaborating with them would be pretty kewl.
I'm gonna hold that while Goku is not a Bad Dad, he definitely isn't a Good Dad. After namek he specifically chose to not be there for his kid, and while yhe Hyperbolic training arc was necessary for the greater good, beating the shit out of your kid for a year straight isn't good dad material. That last bit is why Piccolo is also not falling into Good Dad territory. Badlands training arc for Gohan is the same story. The fact is though, when Gohan is going to therapy, Piccolo is getting less discussion time than Goku.
I don't always approve of self-shilling and reaction farming, but when I do, it's because something extra is added by the content creator to make it special and not just reading from a copy-pasted script. Hope this helps the algorithm, and best of luck with that steady climb to 90K subs and beyond!
Piccolo in normal DBZ and DBS was more or less just a tough love kinda father figure for Gohan, which didn't change much in DBZA all things considered. However I feel like he's a far better strategist in DBZA because he deliberately takes L's in having his arm drunk by Cell, backs himself into a corner with Gero, and constantly tries to play possum to lure his enemies into a false sense of security to get the upper hand or information. By far the smartest character in either adaptation barring Gohan himself. Even in DBZ and DBS Piccolo was still very smart and combat-smart, almost more so than Goku, and that's saying something.
i wonder if youd do dnd alignments on other beloved fan series such as if the emperor had a text to speech device, hunter the parenting or even critical role animated series
I comment to help the algorithm and also to say you keep fucking getting me with the stealth shills. Is my perception just dogshit? How do i keep getting blindsided by this? Smooth as silk my man, smooth as silk.
Piccolo responding to the threat that is Frieza is good but not lawful, many countries have laws pertaining to civilians in regards to threats and quite often is by law required to call the cops, this is lawful. Not stepping up to the plate.
This isn't a grift. Honestly, I can't call it a reaction either. Character analysis is genuinely its own genre of content and whether or not it involves official IP of multinational media companies or fan made parody projects, it doesn't matter. It is your work done with the intent to present your findings/opinions and make it entertaining for an audience, and that is just not, in any way, a grift or stealing other people's content. It's good work and much more than simple reaction content.
TFS has said they think one joke in Super was their influence and that was something about everyone being terrified of Popo. I don't remember the exact joke though.

Your ki master PDF mentioned something about a pure majin subtype, but I couldn’t find it
piccolo is more so a mentor, not necessarily father figure i'd argue
A Godfather Piccolo, huh? Wonder if something or someone like that exists
Maybe save it for April 1st, but TFS Dr. Briefs?
here my part in tricking the tube
I think I missed a video, so uh Lina Lina?!
Jokes aside, I love these deep dives thank you for finishing up season 3 of DBZ Abridged!
6:12 viejo sabroso
How about a special episode where you cover Dense, Nail, and Superkamiguru?
Use the grift, get that bag.
i wonder if youd do dnd alignments on other beloved fan series such as if the emperor had a text to speech device, hunter the parenting or even critical role animated series
I like your grifft
and I love you random citizen!
I comment to help the algorithm and also to say you keep fucking getting me with the stealth shills. Is my perception just dogshit? How do i keep getting blindsided by this? Smooth as silk my man, smooth as silk.
Ding dings make brain buzz
BIG GREEN
Ive got nothing else to say, but for the sake of the algorithm
Ham, beans, and collard greens
This is SO MUCH BETTER than xQc or sssniperwolf reaction content. This is transformative AND you credit the creators!
Grift gud, gives me another way to consume DBZA without watching the whole thing again
15:45 can it really be someone's fault if it is not a problem to begin with?
ENGAGEMENT!!!
I just watch for the franchises I know
Ok here's a comment. Rock on Stuart
What about dragon shortz?
Piccolo responding to the threat that is Frieza is good but not lawful, many countries have laws pertaining to civilians in regards to threats and quite often is by law required to call the cops, this is lawful.
Not stepping up to the plate.
Ok wtf, nvm they crash the damn car, probably speeding on the highway, he and non of the Z-fighters are LAWFUL they're great good but not lawful.
Love big green
This isn't a grift. Honestly, I can't call it a reaction either. Character analysis is genuinely its own genre of content and whether or not it involves official IP of multinational media companies or fan made parody projects, it doesn't matter. It is your work done with the intent to present your findings/opinions and make it entertaining for an audience, and that is just not, in any way, a grift or stealing other people's content. It's good work and much more than simple reaction content.
Do you plan on doing sao abridged or have you done it
I have actually! I did asuna and kirito s1
I like your grift because you add entertainment value
U should dnd alignment ouat especialy rumple
I like your funny words, grift man!
At least you do something with other people content instead of staring blankly or leaving the room
LOL fair enough :) but thank you
@@TheLoadingCrew np, big fan of your content 👍🏾
Battle Kung Fu Dragon Monk Class.🤔
Yup! Just grab the Ki Master PDF and/or Waifu Handbook from the website! :)

TFS has said they think one joke in Super was their influence and that was something about everyone being terrified of Popo. I don't remember the exact joke though.
❤ love the vids.
Goodyng the polyma-.... I mean, Stu the polywaifumaster, is my favorite youtube D&D alignment grifter.

DOOODGE!!!!!!!
Grift! Grift! Grift! Grift!
I audibly laughed out loud and choked on my spit with this comment xD
I sacrifice this comment to the engagement gods! DODGE!
I fully support the grift! Screw the algorithm!
