the idea of goku getting mugged and actually going along with it is so funny to me. like, someone walks up to him with a knife and the man who can literally bench press a planet just goes “aw shucks :(“ and hands over his wallet. comedic genius.
Honestly, I always thought he said "I have no mug" instead of money. I don't know, I just think it fits Goku better, knowing he could get mugged, but doesn't really know what it is .
Is that what he says? I can never make out the last word of the sentence. It sounds like a clipped, awkward version of šhłût, which is especially awkward since sluttiness has nothing to do with attractiveness lol
“Does he mean Freeza day?” I think that’s one of the best things about DBZA, they have hindsight and a completed continuity to draw from and it makes the series feel more cohesive.
As someone who simply thought the "WHAT?!"'s were just hilarious, the Stone Cold connection has helped me reach closer to Enlightenment. You is a Genius.
I thought I was the only one, but yeah, the way he delivers that whole line so deadpan was really funny to me; "That meteor kicked your ass; turns out it was full of bad guys, who knew."
Ahh Lord Slug, an old, powerful Namekian who uses the dragonballs to regain his youth and become stronger in a plot to conquer Earth. Wait, that seems familiar...
@@self4797 i mean atleast moro had to work for that They used the dragon balls But my man moro *succed* Goku and vegeta to get a good chunck of his power before that
That makes way more sense then what I thought. I thought he was saying "don't JEW lie to me." My brain went to a weird and fucked up place on that one.
I love how much Nick loves this movie. It’s so easy as an artist to hate everything you’ve ever made. But it’s genuinely lovely to watch someone enjoy something they made as much as I do.
Its literally why I got frustrated watching their commentary on the earlier episodes where they really didnt give themselves enough credit. The entire time I'm like "noo stop crapping on the masterpiece you guys made! stop it you talented bastards!!"
I actually really liked the idea of Lord Slug being the good half, just because it kind of makes him different by being the anti-piccolo. Piccolo was an evil half who, still being a person, eventually developed empathy, compassion, and principals, re-fusing with his good half and becoming a true hero as a result. And here we find out that Lord Slug was the opposite, a good half who, still being a person, eventually fell from grace and became greedy, cruel and desperate... re-fusing with his initially evil half to go try and make a final play at longer life and conquest.
Lord Slug Goon: OH MY GOD ARE YOU BATMAN?! >Piccolo throws Lord Slug Goon into spotlight > *STONE COLD STEVE AUSTINS THEME SONG PLAYS* Iconic entrance for an iconic character

to quote Kaiser "don't overthink it". 😂 although I would say Slug probably died in the regular canon TWICE considering he died as a result of Guru being a dick and a second time when Moori devours Guru.
@@kiriuxeosa8716 False, because Kami came back to life immediately when Piccolo did, and he was all the way on King Kai's planet. Not only was he across space, but in the afterlife dimension as well.
Lani: i cant believe taka's cover of wonderful world got claimed, it wasnt even that good. Meanwhile taka: i felt a disturbance in the abridging, its as if someone insulted my beautiful singing voice. 😂
It's like I said before: As a Piccolo fan, it's these wonderful moments where they milk every little bit of coolness out Piccolo's few-and-far-between "good" scenes that make me forever grateful for the TFS writing crew.
It's always really cool when they manage to get (for lack of a better word) "real" voice actors to do a cameo. It's so easy to draw a hard line between RUclips and like, the "real thing" that it's exciting to see that line get broken every now and again.
@@Bawgle By contrast, Abridged Goku has probably had a mugging experience or two where the mugger convinced him to hand over his wallet before he realized what was going on.
As we see throughout the series, they LOVE repeat animation gags. If they can loop footage for comedic effect, they will. That also lines up with my funny bone so I love it too
They cut it for pacing if they don't think it's funny enough to justify the time dedicated to it or if the footage doesn't work for it or if it doesn't look that interesting. Jeice getting punched in the face is simple and funny.
@@dskylight17 I'd assume that Cooler would actually take place in the 2 years they were training for the Androids, since Goku actually goes Super Saiyan.
Can we appreciate how good Masako is at portaging Goku and Gohan. It's amazing how close, yet different they sound as a father and son. His voice just IS goku for me now.
I really love the art style in this movie. Unlike most DBZ fights which happen in ruined wastelands with lots of nice, simple rocks to get shattered, they went full out in showing a street level battle with destruction of buildings and shopfronts. It's a really nice touch
I was going to say, this is a beautiful movie for its time and hand drawn art that brings dragon ball/dragon ball z together, using narratives from previous arcs.
The Batman line has been ingrained into my brain for a decade. That entire scene played a weirdly huge part in my life, my tastes, and my friends up until even now.
"Hey, how it's going?" "Oh hey! I'm just waiting for that green jerk to so i can suprise him!" "Neat!" "Yeah...he will never see it com-" *"Oh."* Best joke of the whole movie for me.
This movie had such an impact on my life. The iguana street lines, when he squeezes Goku and says "this is amAAAAzing!" The line "in a trunk, off a cliff" was my text signature for months after this... This movie just really hit my life hard
@@pinkcupcake4717 yep! He's the reason why so many of the gay jokes even the ones that aged poorly always felt like actual jokes and not just being rude!
@@beburs no I’m pretty sure you’re the disgusting one here, people being gay doesn’t affect you in any way, let people love who they love. They’re not hurting anyone. You’re the one hurting people by calling them disgusting for something they have no control over.
Gotta admit, this is one of the more quotable movies for me. "Son of a bitch, my whittling hand!" and "I swear to god, in a trunk, OFF A CLIFF!" have worked their way into my regular vocabulary.
So, fun little fact that makes a joke even better: In the original manga, Piccolo DOES use a two-handed Makkankousappou/Special Beam Cannon against Nappa, complete with the spiral effect. The anime replaced it with a generic two-handed blast, which shows up in Legends as the Double Demon Burst.
I went and confirmed it for myself. He did that during the combo attack with Kuririn and Gohan. That one scene where Gohan was too scared to shoot Nappa.
@@BlusterTheBenevolent i wouldn’t personally count them as movies. I do hope that Taka is able to come to America to talk about them though. If they do end up doing a full Hellsing Ultimate Abridged commentary like this.
The "Lucky Wristbands" joke was definitely something my friends and I would quote while playing the games. Like here's a planet killing attack that should leave nothing behind but minimal damage because wristbands.
I love the small detail of the pause symbol being in the center of Vegeta's tv instead of the center of the actual media player while talking about the clip
That moment KaiserNeko says he was introduced to Dream Theater through History of Trunks and you get a flashback and realize that your own music career literally started with that as well. I feel that on a spiritual level!
Or too dumb to even remember that he was always bulletproof. His very first encounter with a human after Grandpa Gohan died was getting shot in the head by Bulma and going "ow." Seriously, how do you successfully mug Goku?
Don't worry Kaiser, I never realized Bulma's line was cut off. Also, something I really like about false Super Saiyan is how his aura sticks onto Slug as he punches him, like it's fire. Woulda been cool if Ultra Ego vegeta worked like that since he's got swirly flame-ish ki stuff.
as someone who has been a fan since episode 13, lord slug has always held a special place in my heart and may still be my favorite project of yours to date. i think it's genuinely a perfect project - consistently funny throughout, excellent delivery from all your talent, perfectly paced, and almost every single line is memorable always appreciate your work, and really loving this retrospective commentary - thanks so much for all the joy y'all have put out into the world
45:53 "NAIIIIL, come and MAIIIIL this for me!" I love this line lol. I wouldn't be too surprised if half the reason they had that scene at the end was for that line.
6:44 you know it speaks to the power of our mind to fill in blanks/trick us that I legitimately never noticed the audio being cut off at this point. I ALWAYS heard “think it’ll work?” With no errors
No, I have the perfect way to explain this timeline: This is the timeline where Guru trained Nail in the _NEW_ way. He still lost to frieza, but when he fused with Piccolo, they rekt Frieza, so Goku never had to go super saiyan, and they all went home early, till Guru's other half showed up, who was also trained in the "new" way, due to being part of Guru. (Guru didn't die in this one, so he wrote the letter)
Also the epilogue of this movie, where Guru narrated his letter to Slug, solidified in my mind that Abridged Guru is basically just Space Plinkett. Something about his tone and cadence just really reminded me of him.
@@MulletSuperman "'Skygina II: Mr. Satan vs Dr. Boy-Man' is one of the stupidest movies ever made. Nail could have made a better movie, and Nail don't know nothin bout movies."
Also, I started watching them around 18-19 when episode 7 or 8 was coming out. I'm 30 now. So glad these guys stuck to it as long as they did and found so much success!
Piccolo arriving reminds me of the Directory's Commentary livestream they had, where they watched all the movies. During this movie, when Piccolo shows up, Lani and Taka just start yelling "STONE COLD STONE COLD STONE COLD!!" "MY GOD, MY GOD! ITS THE TEXAS RATTLESNAKE! ITS THE TEXAS RATTLESNAKE!!" And it _killed_ me.
Piccolo's lines in this movie were some of your absolute best. It's a shame that those seconds-long snippets are probably gonna be the only parts of Bojack we're gonna get, though.
I just realized that Piccolo shouting "WHAT?" Has a double meaning! The first obviously being that he ripped his ears and can't hear, but also a Stone Cold Steve Austin reference since his catchphrase is also "WHAT?", fitting since he came in with Stone Cold's theme earlier! Lani, I fucking love you!
I love it when Kaiser and Lani spoil us with these long movie ones! They are such great people. I hope they are very successful with their Original shorts and new content that isn't based on abridging.
Stone Cold Piccolo and "Papa Metamacha's gonna make you his bitch" are some of the peak moments in this series for me. This is easily top 3 DBZA movies IMO.
The movies being non canon also hurts my brain with Piccolo all the time, cause in certain movies he should be the strongest character after fusing with Kami.
14:10 Now that I think about it, it would’ve been funny if they found some way to incorporate the “Bitch, I’m adorable” line here with Bulma like they did with Vegeta and Trunks
32:08 I may be 8 months late but I HAVE to tell you guys it melted my heart to see Vegeta using TiVo! I'm a Gen Z but a lot of my friends growing up had no clue what TiVo was (I actually had to explain it to my friend who introduced me to DBZA) so I had always thought it was a lesser known system. I had pretty much forgotten about it when I had finally come around to watching Lord Slug abridged so when Vegeta paused his Television I had a Core Memory Unlocked moment and proceeded to freak out. Thank you SO much for including that little bit of TV history!
So happy they are able to look back and love their old stuff. They haven't become cynical to it or view it as something to be forgotten like so many artist do. I am glad they stayed humble and are able to look back on so much of their work with the same love we give it.
I love everything about these. Lani quoting along, all the amazing lore about the behind the scenes stuff, Scott’s tidbits about the editing, and the obvious love that you have for both the source material and your work is just so heartwarming to see. These videos are a wonderful “replacement” for DBcember in my eyes, nothing keeps the vibes fun at Christmas like TeamFourStar!
Ahh yes, the first DBZA video I’ve ever watched😌, literally watched it like a few weeks after it was published 😂. Love the whole series and will never stop!💯💯
I consider this era the height of TeamFourStar. Lord Slug, Helling Ultimate Abridged #2, and the Namek starting to wrap up is when they really hit their groove and everything just worked.
my favorite part of this series has to be the gradual jump from "ugh, oh yeah THIS joke..." to "OH, YES! THIS JOKE!"
Lmao it's great to see them enjoying this more.
WES!!!!!!
Greetings funny Raiden woman!
you know, i was just worrying about you. good to see you're still up and kicking.

I love that Lani remembers word for word his old lines.
To be fair, he wrote a good few of the lines himself and probably had to do dozens of takes
True and some of those are great meme material.
He also has mentioned that he watches reactions of people going through DBZA every now and then so he may have rewatched the series recently
@@LatiosNationI've seen him comment on some of those reactions too.
He mentioned he rewatched the series on his own time quite a bit

Jokes on them. He has no money
It would probably go like this
“Well… i have no money, but i can give you my tractor if you like!”
“Wait no no No NO!-“
*crunch*
“Oh crapbaskets…”
Does Goku even have pockets?
Honestly, I always thought he said "I have no mug" instead of money. I don't know, I just think it fits Goku better, knowing he could get mugged, but doesn't really know what it is .
Masako's delivery of "DON'T JULY TO ME! IT'S SNOWING!" never fails to make me laugh.
"I FROZE YOUR PLANET!"

Having Taka around would have been nice. Maybe we’ll get him for Hellsing Ultimate.
Does Episode 60 count as a movie? His most sincere performances as Perfect Cell are there.
RIP taka
@@BlusterTheBenevolent i wouldn’t personally count them as movies. I do hope that Taka is able to come to America to talk about them though. If they do end up doing a full Hellsing Ultimate Abridged commentary like this.
We need to buy Taka a plane ticket.
The "Lucky Wristbands" joke was definitely something my friends and I would quote while playing the games. Like here's a planet killing attack that should leave nothing behind but minimal damage because wristbands.
23:52 I don't think it can be understated how frequently I quote Piccolo's deadpan delivery of "spectacular" on a regular basis.
Kaiser's look into the camera cause he knows what episode of HIFL is coming out after this airs is gold
I always took Lord Slug's timeline as the Spirit Bomb working on Frieza. So Goku never went Super Saiyan, which is why he "does so" here.
Yeah that was my interpretation as well.
A timeline that the Cooler duology also fits nicely into, I suppose.
I like this idea.
I subscribe to the idea that the movies are just "What If" timelines of the series
I never knew Talking Movie Bubbles was played by the same VA as Professor Layton, what the hell?! That's incredible!
I love the small detail of the pause symbol being in the center of Vegeta's tv instead of the center of the actual media player while talking about the clip
When I first saw that, it freaked me out. I thought something was wrong
I use “I’m not the brightest knife in the crayon” box un-ironically now. Best quote
That moment KaiserNeko says he was introduced to Dream Theater through History of Trunks and you get a flashback and realize that your own music career literally started with that as well. I feel that on a spiritual level!
These episodes are now my DBcember.
Change my mind.
Oh yeah, if the trade off to losing DBcember was getting these we came out way, way ahead in that deal
33:20 i like the idea of Goku being to dumb to realize he can defend himself, and just gets mugged from time to time.
Or too dumb to even remember that he was always bulletproof. His very first encounter with a human after Grandpa Gohan died was getting shot in the head by Bulma and going "ow."
Seriously, how do you successfully mug Goku?
@@patrickcoyle5469 Confidence and mind games.
I just like to think someone will try to mug him and hes just like “aw shucks” and hands over his cash
Gotta say I'm pretty sure "Hell there's even a new building"
Is one of my favorite random lines
I love that 90% of Slug's lines seems to just be Taka improvising xD
"YOU WERE DOING IT WITH YOUR MOUTH! .....WHAT?!" is easily my favourite moment in this movie. Makes me lose my shit every time
Perfect timing, just got finished with the workout. THE TIMING IS ACTUALLY IMPECCABLE
I literally thought the line was supposed to be “think it’ll work”
Until you pointed it out, my brain smoothed it over. But now I can hear it.
Don't worry Kaiser, I never realized Bulma's line was cut off. Also, something I really like about false Super Saiyan is how his aura sticks onto Slug as he punches him, like it's fire. Woulda been cool if Ultra Ego vegeta worked like that since he's got swirly flame-ish ki stuff.
as someone who has been a fan since episode 13, lord slug has always held a special place in my heart and may still be my favorite project of yours to date. i think it's genuinely a perfect project - consistently funny throughout, excellent delivery from all your talent, perfectly paced, and almost every single line is memorable
always appreciate your work, and really loving this retrospective commentary - thanks so much for all the joy y'all have put out into the world
45:53 "NAIIIIL, come and MAIIIIL this for me!"
I love this line lol. I wouldn't be too surprised if half the reason they had that scene at the end was for that line.
"AHH son of a bitch my widdling hand!" will never not make me die laughing
This is one of my favorite dbza movies!
6:44 you know it speaks to the power of our mind to fill in blanks/trick us that I legitimately never noticed the audio being cut off at this point. I ALWAYS heard “think it’ll work?” With no errors
This one is so great. It's just one word in the entire thing, but the delivery of Piccolo's line, "Neat!" slays me every time.
Can we take a second to shoutout to the person who edited the pause symbol to be in the center of Vegeta's tv screen?
It's the little things.
No, I have the perfect way to explain this timeline: This is the timeline where Guru trained Nail in the _NEW_ way. He still lost to frieza, but when he fused with Piccolo, they rekt Frieza, so Goku never had to go super saiyan, and they all went home early, till Guru's other half showed up, who was also trained in the "new" way, due to being part of Guru. (Guru didn't die in this one, so he wrote the letter)
22:42 what I love about that part: in Germany Piccolo IS Batman! Both are voiced by the same voice actor. Nice coincidence :D
Also the epilogue of this movie, where Guru narrated his letter to Slug, solidified in my mind that Abridged Guru is basically just Space Plinkett. Something about his tone and cadence just really reminded me of him.
Now I wanna hear Guru's opinions on movies
@@MulletSuperman "'Skygina II: Mr. Satan vs Dr. Boy-Man' is one of the stupidest movies ever made. Nail could have made a better movie, and Nail don't know nothin bout movies."
The Charlie Brown joke is underrated, and I think it works fine the way it is
Also, I started watching them around 18-19 when episode 7 or 8 was coming out. I'm 30 now. So glad these guys stuck to it as long as they did and found so much success!
Piccolo arriving reminds me of the Directory's Commentary livestream they had, where they watched all the movies.
During this movie, when Piccolo shows up, Lani and Taka just start yelling
"STONE COLD STONE COLD STONE COLD!!"
"MY GOD, MY GOD! ITS THE TEXAS RATTLESNAKE! ITS THE TEXAS RATTLESNAKE!!"
And it _killed_ me.
Piccolo's lines in this movie were some of your absolute best.
It's a shame that those seconds-long snippets are probably gonna be the only parts of Bojack we're gonna get, though.
I just realized that Piccolo shouting "WHAT?" Has a double meaning! The first obviously being that he ripped his ears and can't hear, but also a Stone Cold Steve Austin reference since his catchphrase is also "WHAT?", fitting since he came in with Stone Cold's theme earlier! Lani, I fucking love you!
I love it when Kaiser and Lani spoil us with these long movie ones! They are such great people. I hope they are very successful with their Original shorts and new content that isn't based on abridging.
Stone Cold Piccolo and "Papa Metamacha's gonna make you his bitch" are some of the peak moments in this series for me. This is easily top 3 DBZA movies IMO.
The timeline of Chi Chi moments in Dragon Ball is literally "Oh yeah, she was a fighter!" to "Oh, she *was* a fighter."
i cannot wait for the World's Strongest commentary, and im loving this series. Shaz' "please dont break my arm" has always made me howl
The movies being non canon also hurts my brain with Piccolo all the time, cause in certain movies he should be the strongest character after fusing with Kami.
Watching Lani just fanboy out with us brings me life.
14:10 Now that I think about it, it would’ve been funny if they found some way to incorporate the “Bitch, I’m adorable” line here with Bulma like they did with Vegeta and Trunks
This was way too long before that line, I think. Maybe they would have if it had existed then.
32:08 I may be 8 months late but I HAVE to tell you guys it melted my heart to see Vegeta using TiVo! I'm a Gen Z but a lot of my friends growing up had no clue what TiVo was (I actually had to explain it to my friend who introduced me to DBZA) so I had always thought it was a lesser known system. I had pretty much forgotten about it when I had finally come around to watching Lord Slug abridged so when Vegeta paused his Television I had a Core Memory Unlocked moment and proceeded to freak out. Thank you SO much for including that little bit of TV history!
So happy they are able to look back and love their old stuff. They haven't become cynical to it or view it as something to be forgotten like so many artist do. I am glad they stayed humble and are able to look back on so much of their work with the same love we give it.
I mean, there are some things that they say they would rather do differently. Mainly the humor. But otherwise yeah, they view it rather positively.
I was looking forward to this creator commentary on the king piccolo movie!
GO TEAM SLUG!
GO TEAM GURU!!!
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH
13:37 I love the small, precious windows of actually intelligible Slug Speak 😂
Maybe but nothing tops "ohhh bsshh bsshh bsshh" imo :D
Leet
"The kid in the ghost costume" MF THAT'S CHARLIE BROWN! PUT RESPECT ON HIS NAME.
Election night is over, and I’m heartbroken. Thanks for being my comfort show
I always loved that "That's what makes it special" joke
This is definitely one of my top favorite DBZA movies and probably the one I've rewatched the most.
I love everything about these. Lani quoting along, all the amazing lore about the behind the scenes stuff, Scott’s tidbits about the editing, and the obvious love that you have for both the source material and your work is just so heartwarming to see. These videos are a wonderful “replacement” for DBcember in my eyes, nothing keeps the vibes fun at Christmas like TeamFourStar!
Ahh yes, the first DBZA video I’ve ever watched😌, literally watched it like a few weeks after it was published 😂. Love the whole series and will never stop!💯💯
I consider this era the height of TeamFourStar. Lord Slug, Helling Ultimate Abridged #2, and the Namek starting to wrap up is when they really hit their groove and everything just worked.
