Krillin actually, no cap, canonically, has no nose. This has its roots in gag manga humor from Toriyama's early days that was carried into early Dragon Ball. Krillin faced an opponent who was really stinky and used this as his fighting style, however once he remembered he doesn't have a nose, he was fine.
3:58:52 Goku's instant transmission works by sensing a person's energy he's familiar with and willing himself there, he can't go somewhere he can't detect someone he knows, so there was basically nowhere he could go with Cell that wouldn't result in collateral damage, King Kai's planet was the absolute least loss of life, since because King Kai is already in Other World, he technically wouldn't have to go anywhere
Fourstar didn't stop because of the copyright claims. They won every single claim they had. They stopped because they were burnt out. The started on Bojack and they weren't having fun doing it. And they called it quits. It was burn out. They stated that themselves.
@@majora919I'm certain constant copyright claims played a hand in it but yeah TFS absolutely also had creative burnout they've been very open about that recently especially on their creator commentary series
I just wanna point out that Krillin thought 18 was a smoking babe at a 9 . . . without the prospect of ever having sex with her. That's how hard he fell for her.
It's actually very deliberate too, because they showcased Krillin gaining a pure heart from og into Z; it's essentially how you act when innocent. He failed to ride Nimbus when meeting Goku initially, but then he can wield the Spirit Bomb against Vegeta.
If I’m not mistaken, the reason they made 16’s speech less heartfelt is because the goal isn’t to get Gohan to “just stop holding back” or something like that, the goal is to piss him off, make him snap, or otherwise DRAG Super Saiyan 2 out of him, which is the LAST thing Gohan wants.
The episode was also released 2016-2017, when the US was going through some things. "Grow up and take action, pacifisim is cowardice if it allows others to be hurt" was very much a message to their audience of the time.
2:36:11 Dende (Little Green) whistles at Gohan, Piccolo says "ow", Dende says "that hurt me more than it hurt you". Seems like everyone missed this as a tie in to Namekian heightened hearing, like when Piccolo heard Trunks talking to Goku when they (Trunks & Goku) first met. It'd be like if someone with super advanced arthritis cracked their knuckles to appear intimidating
They did make a full version of the mustache song. and they pulled in just about every single RUclips content creator on the Internet at that time to make cameos in it. It’s one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen.
the song was much better received then the idea was in Dragonball GT... seeing how Vegeta does sport a mustache for most of that series till Bulla/Bra finally tells him it looks stupid XD
15:22 "Well, we can't climb down that - it's broken." apparently this is a line from one of the games as a absolutely weak excuse as to why you couldn't go somewhere.
The song when Gohan goes ssj 2 is the song from the actual show. It places in the original Japanese dub. TFS just remade the song in English to use over abridged, but it was originally in Japanese in the show.
1:38 the story of Dragon Ball Z was supposed to be about how Gohan gradually becomes stronger and more powerful than Goku and takes up the mantle of earth protector from him. But in the end, Goku and his rivalry with Vegeta just stole the show in every opportunity and so they just kept bringing him back from the dead and making him and/or vegeta the main focus
True, Toriyama did say the original story was supposed to be about how Goku passes on the mantle of protector of earth to his son, the eventual progression of responsibility passing from father to son trope, but in the end through DragonBall Z the fan reaction to Gohans character was so mild and negative that he chose to keep the story focused on Goku.
@@josephthiel9695actually Gohan was voted fan favorite after Cell, Toriyama shifted back to Goku because Gohan is a passive protagonist and Goku is active. That’s why Dragon Ball turns into a super hero comic for an arc before Buu shows up because Gohan was only reactive. However Toriyama didn’t think that made an affective protagonist
@@Braffman I think in the Buu Saga, Toriyama just kept flip flopping. Buu was turning good, and no fighting. So nope, let's turn him evil so much fighting. Gohan was deemed as "The One" and made into a Super God, the most strongest mortal to exist. But then nope, he lost anyways so Goku could save the day. With how powerful Super Buu was, Goku couldn't kill him logically, so had to literally retcon how Buu's 'Candy Beam' works and logic, and literally retconned how the kai earings worked, to set up the removal of Good Buu and turn him into kid buu, "The weakest form" so that Goku could kill him. The story just heavily flips flops all over the place on who will beat Buu, how they would beat him, and even why they would beat him.
Yes, the rabbit sent to the moon was true. It was an early episode of DragonBall (within the first 10 episodes). It was when dragon ball still indirectly did folklore in the series. DragonBall was originally just Journey to the West with a new skin. Like Saiyuki. One of the reasons I enjoy dragon ball more. Also, the young girl shooting a boy in yhe face line is the very first 5 minutes of dragon ball. It was how bulma and goku met. She shot him in the face.
Chichi is fairly strong, at this point in the story she is probably the most powerful human woman in DBZ. Edit: *at this point* in the timeline Chichi is the strongest human woman, i.e. with 18 absorbed and Videl a little girl.
@@piusdoe8984 18 does become the strongest after becoming human, but I find it difficult to believe that Videl at roughly 9-11 years of age with no ki training is stronger than Chi-Chi
14:14 yes that happened in dragonball King Piccolo and his minions killed Krillin, Master Roshi, Chiaotzu and yes even the dragon Shenron. 1:57:17 no that’s 100% true Goku sent a rabbit to the moon and it’s been blown up twice since then so the rabbit is dead. 4:18:56 the reason king Kai is so mad at Yumcha is because Yumcha‘s wish was to bring back everyone killed ON EARTH by cell if he left out the “on earth” and just said everyone killed by cell king Kai would have also been revived, a lot of people don’t catch that. 4:28:12 krillin says “I am a grower” and then you hear “IT” hit the floor. That is the joke.
I remember the first time I saw Piccolo Daimao blow up Shenron. I was so confused as to how that was even possible. I always thought that he was an ethereal being, unable to be touched. Almost like a ghost.
Wasn't there some incidental shot of the rabbit and/or rabbit-gang on the moon as a quick easter egg post-moon-splosion? I don't remember the details, so i'm not 100% on that. But i _swear_ i've heard that before.
The soundtrack at 3:42:00 is actually a cover of the japanese soundtrack played in the original release. Also the bird was not edited in. It was actually part of the original
Trunks' max power form is actually something that's been around since very early Dragon Ball. Roshi used it as early as episode 14, right before the first Kamehameha of the series. Trunks using it is a symptom of Vegeta's greatest disadvantage as a teacher- he's unapproachable. Goku and Gohan discussing the form while training probably stemmed from Gohan discovering it and coming to his father. If Trunks could've talked to Vegeta about it, he likely would have stopped pursuing it while training and could've gotten stronger in a more meaningful way.
“I have hobbies.” “No you don’t.” My mind went straight to the Bald This Way video where Tien told Piccolo he had no friends and now I think Piccolo’s been holding that petty grudge this whole time.
I remember back in the day, the info about the android's name's and 16 being the doctor's was mentioned by the creator. I can remember if it was interview or publication but that info was supposedly released after the show or arc. It was so long ago it could have been a playground rumor or something like when he forgot that he changed Bullma's hair color. Her hair color was originally future Trunks' hair color and that's why Trunks had lavender hair.
Nah if I remember correctly in the DBZA creator commentary they mentioned the interview happened around the time they were making this arc that's why they included it directly in their cannon and made that extra scene to tie it together with Goku causing the revenge plot, in the og DBZ Dr. Giro just did it cause Goku defeated the red ribbon and nothing to do with his son. So you definitely remember correctly.
I only just realized it now, but Goku did the same thing that Master Roshi did in Dragonball. (22nd Tenka-Ichi Budoukai) Halfway through the fight, just gives up without going all out, anticlimactically... and is like... Hey short monkey boy, beat this guy! It's time for the new Generation to take over.
That was the sole reason for this saga, to show Gohan had surpassed Goku [technically Gohan was SSJ2 during this fight, and Goku saw his climb in power during their time in the room], and Goku/Vegeta still stole the show, especially from Goku's sacrifice/Vegeta finally putting his pride aside for his son, Trunks. Once [everyone] found out Goku was officially gone, there were many petitions against Toriyama/Production and so they ixnayed the 'Gohan becoming the new protector of Earth', and then severely axed his power [nay we remind you of the Great Saiyaman saga?], seeing as with the Namekian Dragonballs anyone can be brought back as many times as they want.
@@cshimp10 didn't really axe his power, moreso just continued the tradition of a new SSJ form each saga, making Gohan look weaker by comparison, even with that Mystic Ultimate form
@@cshimp10 Dude never read anything outside social media. lol I mean... I prefer Ellipses and parenthesis to brackets when separating talking points, but nothing hard about how you explained things.
"Gonna need a Senzu for that one" best line in this parody. Vegueta is so badass I want to see him dominate his enemies more often. Also watch the actual show BEFORE the parody...
goku is not a genius he literally has brain damage. its shown in dragon ball. when goku first came to earth he fell and hit his head and his "granpa" gohan found him. that hit to the head is why goku didnt rampage the whole planet like vegeta was at the same time. he literally has brain damage.
So about Teen Gohan: Saiyans grow in spurts. They don't slowly get larger by a tiny amount every day over their lives into their adult form like humans do. They stay a baby until suddenly evolving like a pokemon into a child, then their next form is teen, then adult, and then silverback. Teen is just the name of the form Gohan will be through his teens. It doesn't mean they're actually a teenager yet.
I hope that’s true and not just artistic inconsistency, because there was a time where trunks in DBS was still as small as he was in the buu saga, when he was 13 and the same age as future trunks in history of trunks, so he should be bigger by then
That’s some cool head canon (the truth is the dub just mislabeled youth gohan as teen and it was too late to change it when he showed up again in the buu saga) In jp he’s just gohan(youth) and buu saga gohan is gohan (teen)
@@SardonicVida From the Dragonball Wiki: In terms of physical development, this differs by Saiyan as it does with Earthlings. Most full-blooded Saiyans appear to grow in spurt phases, as seen through Goku.[40][41] Saiyans appear identical to that of a Earthling baby in their early years, although they are born with a full head of hair more often than Earthlings, but also appear to grow at somewhat slower rates. Goku at the age of 12 was actually about the same size as his future son Gohan (who is half-Earthling) would be at the age of 5. Bulma herself believed Goku to be that young when they first met, but was shocked to find out he was actually 12.[42][43] By the age of 18, Goku had undergone his largest spurt phase; he became significantly taller and more muscular, going from half the size of Yamcha to nearly matching him three years later.[44] General height and built once fully grown can still differ between Saiyans the same as Earthlings as Vegeta, who is five years older than Goku, is noticeably shorter and smaller overall. This is supported by Super Hero, in which Piccolo is surprised that Goten and Trunks had grown significantly since the last time he saw them. Gohan appears to be aware of the way Saiyans grow, as he tells Piccolo that they stay small for a long time before hitting a sudden growth spurt that brings about better fighting physiology.
One of the funniest things about episode 60 is that it took so long to make that the DBFZ reference in part 3 couldn't have been made at the start of the episode's production, because DBFZ didn't even get announced by the time episode 59 released.
Jimmy Firecracker: “By the way, does the fat green one come back? Because he was pretty funny.” Cell: “Psh, I wish!” It makes it even funnier when you realize Takahata, Cell’s VA, also voiced Lord Guru
"they should've brought in the soundtrack of the actual show" he says as an English cover of the OG song that played when Gohan first went ssj 2 plays.....
Mid 80's baby here and I grew up with the original. When I stumbled upon abridged a decade or so ago I fell in love. Basically took a nostalgic show and revamped it with adult humor. Thanks TFS
People forget goku isn’t stupid he’s ignorant he lived isolated in the mountains till he was 12 only interacting with his adoptive grandfather for the first part then being completely alone for the second part he never had a day of education outside of roshi and launch teaching him how to read and do basic arithmetic when he was 12-13
no he is literally brain damaged its why he didnt try to take over earth. its stated in dragon ball. before his grandpa found him he fell in his Saiyan pod breaking the fall with his skull.
For anyone who doesn’t understand the whole senzu bean stuff. Goku didn’t want cell to get desperate and blow up the planet after losing to Gohan therefore he powered him back up to further fuel Cells confidence we see that later on when Gohan starts toying with him and he gets desperate and almost blows up the planet. So to most it’s seen as a dumb move from Goku but it was all calculated even before fighting cell
P' is for 'priceless', the look upon your faces E' is for 'extinction', all your puny races R' for 'revolution', which will be televised F' is for how 'f**ked' you are, now allow me to repriiise E' is for 'eccentric', just listen to my song C' is for 'completion', that I waited for so long T' is for the 'terror', upon you I’ll bestow My name is Perfect Cell, and I'd like to say...hello.
3:42:18 "they should have used this soundtrack in the actual show". They... they did. The original japanese dub had this song, it's named "Spirit vs Spirit". And it is substantially more emotional than the honestly crappy inner monologue Gohan has that takes away all the emotional buildup. *edit* regarding why they quit, it wasn't just the copyright nonsense. Well, it didn't help. But they were very burned out on the series. They were working on Bojack and had to shelve it because they couldnt get it to work. There was a fully year where they only had 2 or 3 episodes out (the semi perfect cell ones I think). And it took a full year to work on the final episode (which was essentially a feature-length film given its length). Also, they or at least Kaiser, strongly felt that this ending was about as good as it gets to end the series (and he only made 60-4 as a way to finish off remaining plot points and properly end the Cell saga). And finally they just were not major fans of the Afterworld Tournament, Gohan goes to Highschool, and the Buu saga. So despite initially saying "we will see you in season 4", they decided to just end the series where it did. Honestly, I feel it was a good call. As Lani puts it "I will be damned if we let DBZA turn into Scrubs season 9". And we got the Buu bits so, yay :) *edit 2* Oh wow I realised you guys missed the final episode of DBZA. Episode 60 had a 4th part, where Trunks returns to his timeline.
It's 100% exclusive to offscreen, but we all know Vegeta went to confront Popo again in a serious match to discover he's stronger than even Perfect Cell in the Abridged continuity
fun fact: the guy who voiced Trunks is also the main editor of the series and at the time he didnt believe he was good enough to do Trunks's voice justice. i think he more than proved himself with the screams in this vid
Just thought about it, but Yamcha should be about as big a star as Hercule. Unless Baseball just isn't a big deal in the DBZ world. But in Japan it's a rather big deal. While Yamcha may be the weakest, he's had far more exposure than the others. Just would've been funny for them to acknowledge "even baseball superstar Yamcha is here to fight Cell" or something.
1:26:12 and #18 has a fantastic point here. Krillin does the right thing really, if he killed her here, he'd be committing murder, essentially doing a bad deed before she gets a chance to do one herself. In the Abridged story, I've noticed she only attacked Vegeta in self-defence. And let's face it, in his arrogance, he was asking for it 😂 Vegeta: "I can finally get around to disassembling you, you smug c**t!" He asked for a beating 😂 his sexism and misogyny here was beyond belief, even for Vegeta 😂😂
And about teleporting Cell to Kai's planet: Goku's Instant Transmission only takes him to places near people. He targets by sensing their energy. He can't just teleport to deep space unless there's someone there he knows. Hence, Kai.
3:58:50 so in canon Goku does not tell King Kai, but he brings Cell there to minimize risk as the only ones effected are King Kai, Bubbles and Gregory since they're in Otherworld away from everyone via Snake Way. Goku had to bring him there because he can only Instant Transmission to a source of energy. When he brings Cell to King Kai's, King Kai is obviously surprised but simply says "Well you could've called first" with a jovial tone
@ 3:18:46 goku giving cell the senzu bean is the smartest decision he made. The moment cell realized gohan was stronger than him he revert to blow up the Earth through self destruction. Goku prolonged that by giving cell a senzu bean
Having grown up with this series since the namik saga, it always brings a tear to my eyes watching the ending again. Those guys at team four star poured their hearts into this series.
For real. And it's so sad how much adversity from the actual creative team came their way. Tbeh, I wouldn't be a dragon ball fan without abridged, and I know many people who would at least not be BIG fans, if not fans in general, if not for abridged.
The disturbing thing isn't the clones its what does he does with the old ones once the new ones are ready? 🤔 I wonder if thats what the shotgun is for 🤔
Tbh you could argue he also hated it because it made most of the community stupid to believe some of the things in it, like how goku is a bad dad. Goku isn’t the greatest father of all time but he isn’t bad.
In og Dragon Ball, Goku actually did send a rabbit to the moon. I can't remember the exact story, but pretty much Goku fought a rabbit mob boss then used the power pole to bring the rabbit and a couple of it's henchmen up to the moon. They were forced to make mochi on the moon and, according to a Q&A (or interview, I forget), once Roshi blew up the moon, they didn't die. They were launched off into space and are supposedly still floating through space to this day.
The way Gohan's tears slowly evaporated in the burning aura of his new power is also an example of animation that the Super series just lacked. I don't remember seeing even one moment in it where I felt the same coolness and smoothness. It was all just lack of detail on everything from bodies to facial expressions, and the weird shiny rendering, that made characters look like plastic. The Broly movie did it justice, like an updated but still nostalgic look, and Daima at least is a massive improvement over Super, though not quite as good.
"And he sent a rabbit to the Moon!" This is in reference to the very beginning of Dragonball [Issue 2; Chapter 7], after Bulma met Goku and Oolong, they started their adventure, and came across a town plagued by the Rabbit Mob. Bulma, at the time, was wearing a bunny suit [like a Playboy bunny] and this town was terrorized by a rabbit-man [named Monster Carrot; he could turn anyone into a carrot with the touch of his hand]. Long story short, Goku sent him and his henchmen to the moon to make marshmallow treats for children [presumably for eternity]. Yeah. After writing it out, it's very farfetched.
1:57:14 Yes, that actually happened. It was during Goku's very first hunt for the dragon balls as a kid. Monster Carrot was a giant rabbit and mob boss that could turn people into carrots and eat them. Goku defeated him with his power pole and then used it to take him to the moon where he was forced to make treats for children for a year. However, the moon was then destroyed by Master Roshi to stop Goku when he turned into Oozaru during the World matial arts tournament.
This has been stated a million times, probably. Akira tried to make Gohan the main character. The fans were not happy. Gohan was always supposed to surpass his father. If Beast Mode Gohan is official, I doubt it will stand to UI Goku. Considering what people end up becoming
"This doesn't go past the Cell Saga does it?" About that... "Did he actually take him there?!" Yes, even in canon Goku took Cell to King Kai's planet and HE'S BEEN DEAD SINCE, in fact it's a running gag that whenever the Z fighters summon a dragon to revive people they ALWAYS forget about reviving King Kai
Can we also take a moment to praise capsule corp. bulma had rags to work with when. Vegita “gave” her his old armor to analyze and scrutinize to try and replicate it. It took a cell attack and hasn’t ripped.
I cant lie i watch this all interesting and its honestly the most ive been invested in something dragon ball since the original and ive watched most of super.
Something I find funny about the whole “16 nuking cell” bit is that cell has the durability to survive planet shattering projectiles, yet it’s heavily implied that cell would have taken either massive damage or he would have died had the nuke gone off That or the radiation woulda gotten ‘em meruem style
I just realized when cell said anything can make him pop including “a wafer thin mint” that it was a direct reference to Monty pythons the meaning of life when the big guy exploded from eating one… and for that I have so much more respect for TFS and appreciates them for referencing a classic.
If I remember correctly, I'm pretty sure Toriyama stated somewhere that if Cell hadn't moved, that Final Flash would've killed him. So the Abridged "OH SHIT!" is such a valid abridged line
2:27:40 I'm sorry, I hate this argument. I hate it so much. Yes, people censored shit a lot back in the day. And people were rightly mocked for it. Saying that a group of idiots in the past censored things does not give a right for the next generation of idiots to censor things. It's literally the same.
I'm only just making this connection now(in easily 50+ watchthroughs of Abridged), but I like how how they try to imply that 16 may never have given his speech to Gohan had Gohan chosen to wear a Gi like Goku's, because he hated orange so much.
Every single time I see that art of Android 16, I can't help but tear up. This series is such a masterpiece I think I've actually come to legitimately prefer it over the original. And that's no easy feat.
Krillin actually, no cap, canonically, has no nose. This has its roots in gag manga humor from Toriyama's early days that was carried into early Dragon Ball. Krillin faced an opponent who was really stinky and used this as his fighting style, however once he remembered he doesn't have a nose, he was fine.
They even made a nod to him having no nose in the ToP
I believe it was stated that he had a condition that let him breathe through his skin. Toriyama was pretty odd sometimes, but it IS Dragon Ball.
3:58:52 Goku's instant transmission works by sensing a person's energy he's familiar with and willing himself there, he can't go somewhere he can't detect someone he knows, so there was basically nowhere he could go with Cell that wouldn't result in collateral damage, King Kai's planet was the absolute least loss of life, since because King Kai is already in Other World, he technically wouldn't have to go anywhere

Chichi is fairly strong, at this point in the story she is probably the most powerful human woman in DBZ.
Edit: *at this point* in the timeline Chichi is the strongest human woman, i.e. with 18 absorbed and Videl a little girl.

14:14 yes that happened in dragonball King Piccolo and his minions killed Krillin, Master Roshi, Chiaotzu and yes even the dragon Shenron. 1:57:17 no that’s 100% true Goku sent a rabbit to the moon and it’s been blown up twice since then so the rabbit is dead. 4:18:56 the reason king Kai is so mad at Yumcha is because Yumcha‘s wish was to bring back everyone killed ON EARTH by cell if he left out the “on earth” and just said everyone killed by cell king Kai would have also been revived, a lot of people don’t catch that. 4:28:12 krillin says “I am a grower” and then you hear “IT” hit the floor. That is the joke.
I remember the first time I saw Piccolo Daimao blow up Shenron. I was so confused as to how that was even possible. I always thought that he was an ethereal being, unable to be touched. Almost like a ghost.
If I remember correctly, Roshi died by exhausted himself trying to re-seal King Piccolo with the Mafuba.
Wasn't there some incidental shot of the rabbit and/or rabbit-gang on the moon as a quick easter egg post-moon-splosion?
I don't remember the details, so i'm not 100% on that. But i _swear_ i've heard that before.
The soundtrack at 3:42:00 is actually a cover of the japanese soundtrack played in the original release. Also the bird was not edited in. It was actually part of the original
Trunks' max power form is actually something that's been around since very early Dragon Ball. Roshi used it as early as episode 14, right before the first Kamehameha of the series.
Trunks using it is a symptom of Vegeta's greatest disadvantage as a teacher- he's unapproachable. Goku and Gohan discussing the form while training probably stemmed from Gohan discovering it and coming to his father.
If Trunks could've talked to Vegeta about it, he likely would have stopped pursuing it while training and could've gotten stronger in a more meaningful way.
“I have hobbies.”
“No you don’t.”
My mind went straight to the Bald This Way video where Tien told Piccolo he had no friends and now I think Piccolo’s been holding that petty grudge this whole time.
In the original show, Dr. Briefs is like the kindest man alive. Its funny how they turned him into one of the most despicable ones
I remember back in the day, the info about the android's name's and 16 being the doctor's was mentioned by the creator. I can remember if it was interview or publication but that info was supposedly released after the show or arc. It was so long ago it could have been a playground rumor or something like when he forgot that he changed Bullma's hair color. Her hair color was originally future Trunks' hair color and that's why Trunks had lavender hair.
Nah if I remember correctly in the DBZA creator commentary they mentioned the interview happened around the time they were making this arc that's why they included it directly in their cannon and made that extra scene to tie it together with Goku causing the revenge plot, in the og DBZ Dr. Giro just did it cause Goku defeated the red ribbon and nothing to do with his son. So you definitely remember correctly.
I only just realized it now, but Goku did the same thing that Master Roshi did in Dragonball. (22nd Tenka-Ichi Budoukai)
Halfway through the fight, just gives up without going all out, anticlimactically... and is like... Hey short monkey boy, beat this guy! It's time for the new Generation to take over.
That was the sole reason for this saga, to show Gohan had surpassed Goku [technically Gohan was SSJ2 during this fight, and Goku saw his climb in power during their time in the room], and Goku/Vegeta still stole the show, especially from Goku's sacrifice/Vegeta finally putting his pride aside for his son, Trunks. Once [everyone] found out Goku was officially gone, there were many petitions against Toriyama/Production and so they ixnayed the 'Gohan becoming the new protector of Earth', and then severely axed his power [nay we remind you of the Great Saiyaman saga?], seeing as with the Namekian Dragonballs anyone can be brought back as many times as they want.
@@cshimp10 didn't really axe his power, moreso just continued the tradition of a new SSJ form each saga, making Gohan look weaker by comparison, even with that Mystic Ultimate form
@@cshimp10 this is not how humans type/write...

Gohan gets his brains from his dad. Goku is a genius, but all his intelligence was put into fighting and training
Real😭😭
goku is not a genius he literally has brain damage. its shown in dragon ball. when goku first came to earth he fell and hit his head and his "granpa" gohan found him. that hit to the head is why goku didnt rampage the whole planet like vegeta was at the same time. he literally has brain damage.
Goku specked into strength and intelligence but unfortunately the intelligence was just strength in disguise
So about Teen Gohan:
Saiyans grow in spurts. They don't slowly get larger by a tiny amount every day over their lives into their adult form like humans do. They stay a baby until suddenly evolving like a pokemon into a child, then their next form is teen, then adult, and then silverback.
Teen is just the name of the form Gohan will be through his teens. It doesn't mean they're actually a teenager yet.
I hope that’s true and not just artistic inconsistency, because there was a time where trunks in DBS was still as small as he was in the buu saga, when he was 13 and the same age as future trunks in history of trunks, so he should be bigger by then
That’s some cool head canon (the truth is the dub just mislabeled youth gohan as teen and it was too late to change it when he showed up again in the buu saga)
In jp he’s just gohan(youth) and buu saga gohan is gohan (teen)
@@SardonicVida From the Dragonball Wiki:
In terms of physical development, this differs by Saiyan as it does with Earthlings. Most full-blooded Saiyans appear to grow in spurt phases, as seen through Goku.[40][41] Saiyans appear identical to that of a Earthling baby in their early years, although they are born with a full head of hair more often than Earthlings, but also appear to grow at somewhat slower rates. Goku at the age of 12 was actually about the same size as his future son Gohan (who is half-Earthling) would be at the age of 5. Bulma herself believed Goku to be that young when they first met, but was shocked to find out he was actually 12.[42][43] By the age of 18, Goku had undergone his largest spurt phase; he became significantly taller and more muscular, going from half the size of Yamcha to nearly matching him three years later.[44] General height and built once fully grown can still differ between Saiyans the same as Earthlings as Vegeta, who is five years older than Goku, is noticeably shorter and smaller overall. This is supported by Super Hero, in which Piccolo is surprised that Goten and Trunks had grown significantly since the last time he saw them. Gohan appears to be aware of the way Saiyans grow, as he tells Piccolo that they stay small for a long time before hitting a sudden growth spurt that brings about better fighting physiology.
@@williambarnes5023 that doesn’t change my comment, they mislabeled gohan.
@@williambarnes5023 cell saga gohan is called gohan (youth) everywhere except for America in which they mislabeled him as gohan (teen)
One of the funniest things about episode 60 is that it took so long to make that the DBFZ reference in part 3 couldn't have been made at the start of the episode's production, because DBFZ didn't even get announced by the time episode 59 released.
Jimmy Firecracker: “By the way, does the fat green one come back? Because he was pretty funny.”
Cell: “Psh, I wish!”
It makes it even funnier when you realize Takahata, Cell’s VA, also voiced Lord Guru
NAAAAAIIIIIILLLLLL
If I remember rightly cell was voiced by Damien Clarke in the original who voiced handsome Jack in borderlands 2
When goku wakes up and mentions that he was a ninja but it ended. I believe that was the first episode after the Naruto shippuden manga ended.
One thing i absolutely love about DBZA Cell is that even if Cell IS a horrible monster he's still one of the only ones willing to stand up for Yamcha.
"they should've brought in the soundtrack of the actual show" he says as an English cover of the OG song that played when Gohan first went ssj 2 plays.....
Mid 80's baby here and I grew up with the original. When I stumbled upon abridged a decade or so ago I fell in love. Basically took a nostalgic show and revamped it with adult humor. Thanks TFS
People forget goku isn’t stupid he’s ignorant he lived isolated in the mountains till he was 12 only interacting with his adoptive grandfather for the first part then being completely alone for the second part he never had a day of education outside of roshi and launch teaching him how to read and do basic arithmetic when he was 12-13
no he is literally brain damaged its why he didnt try to take over earth. its stated in dragon ball. before his grandpa found him he fell in his Saiyan pod breaking the fall with his skull.
For anyone who doesn’t understand the whole senzu bean stuff. Goku didn’t want cell to get desperate and blow up the planet after losing to Gohan therefore he powered him back up to further fuel Cells confidence we see that later on when Gohan starts toying with him and he gets desperate and almost blows up the planet. So to most it’s seen as a dumb move from Goku but it was all calculated even before fighting cell
Dbza will always be one of my favorite versions of the story lol it was done so well its just.... *perfect*
P' is for 'priceless', the look upon your faces
E' is for 'extinction', all your puny races
R' for 'revolution', which will be televised
F' is for how 'f**ked' you are, now allow me to repriiise
E' is for 'eccentric', just listen to my song
C' is for 'completion', that I waited for so long
T' is for the 'terror', upon you I’ll bestow
My name is Perfect Cell, and I'd like to say...hello.
3:42:18 "they should have used this soundtrack in the actual show".
They... they did. The original japanese dub had this song, it's named "Spirit vs Spirit". And it is substantially more emotional than the honestly crappy inner monologue Gohan has that takes away all the emotional buildup.
*edit*
regarding why they quit, it wasn't just the copyright nonsense. Well, it didn't help. But they were very burned out on the series. They were working on Bojack and had to shelve it because they couldnt get it to work. There was a fully year where they only had 2 or 3 episodes out (the semi perfect cell ones I think). And it took a full year to work on the final episode (which was essentially a feature-length film given its length). Also, they or at least Kaiser, strongly felt that this ending was about as good as it gets to end the series (and he only made 60-4 as a way to finish off remaining plot points and properly end the Cell saga). And finally they just were not major fans of the Afterworld Tournament, Gohan goes to Highschool, and the Buu saga. So despite initially saying "we will see you in season 4", they decided to just end the series where it did.
Honestly, I feel it was a good call. As Lani puts it "I will be damned if we let DBZA turn into Scrubs season 9". And we got the Buu bits so, yay :)
*edit 2*
Oh wow I realised you guys missed the final episode of DBZA. Episode 60 had a 4th part, where Trunks returns to his timeline.
If you listen carefully you can actually hear Grandpa Gohan at 2:30:00 '"He's the Ghost'"
Rewatched this series over a dozen times and it’s the first time I noticed. Good catch
2:44:15 for context tambourine was one of the spawns of king piccolo (technically making him piccolos brother) who killed Krillin in og dragonball
Nappa being Mr. Satan's manager makes sense to me, considering how dumb he is regarding powers that are beyond his
You know still love how whenever Gohan's in his super saiyan form his hair is basically base goku's hair from certain angles
It's 100% exclusive to offscreen, but we all know Vegeta went to confront Popo again in a serious match to discover he's stronger than even Perfect Cell in the Abridged continuity
Lol, at 3:00:13 They're vibing to Lazy Town (A kid's TV program from ages ago) music and they don't even know it. That's the genius of music.
Broooooo, Lazy Town was my JAM when I was a little kid
fun fact: the guy who voiced Trunks is also the main editor of the series and at the time he didnt believe he was good enough to do Trunks's voice justice. i think he more than proved himself with the screams in this vid
Just found you guys a couple weeks ago and just finished the android binge. Perfect timing, happy to be a brand new billy! 😂
I'd love to know what the whole billy thing is at some point.
Just thought about it, but Yamcha should be about as big a star as Hercule. Unless Baseball just isn't a big deal in the DBZ world. But in Japan it's a rather big deal. While Yamcha may be the weakest, he's had far more exposure than the others. Just would've been funny for them to acknowledge "even baseball superstar Yamcha is here to fight Cell" or something.
True but think about it in the public’s view point. Though he had a great game or two , he disappeared off the face of the earth
If Cell didn't dodge the Final Flash, he would have died.
He didn’t dodge the Final Flash.
@@pocketplayer33 According to Akira Toriyama in that one interview, he dodged part of it.
He said if it hit him full-force, he would have died.
So he con firmed that Vegeta could have won but didn't, because cell dodged.
Of course cell has picolo dna in him, because of that dodging is in cell's dna
@@aldor9813 love the TFS reference.
Damn it, you didn't get to see the epilogue. It was a perfect ending to the series, with one of the most fitting last lines ever.
2:27:39 It's funny how these guys say that but also shakes their head at every semi edgy joke throughout the entire show lol.
if they added yamchas dna into cell, cell would’ve won
I just realized that there's also a solar flare image while Cell sings my way...bruh, knightmare fuel
1:25:09 i LOVE how much animosity Vegeta holds towards #18 since she broke both his arms and humiliated him in battle 😂
1:26:12 and #18 has a fantastic point here. Krillin does the right thing really, if he killed her here, he'd be committing murder, essentially doing a bad deed before she gets a chance to do one herself. In the Abridged story, I've noticed she only attacked Vegeta in self-defence. And let's face it, in his arrogance, he was asking for it 😂
Vegeta: "I can finally get around to disassembling you, you smug c**t!"
He asked for a beating 😂 his sexism and misogyny here was beyond belief, even for Vegeta 😂😂
And about teleporting Cell to Kai's planet:
Goku's Instant Transmission only takes him to places near people. He targets by sensing their energy. He can't just teleport to deep space unless there's someone there he knows.
Hence, Kai.
3:58:50 so in canon Goku does not tell King Kai, but he brings Cell there to minimize risk as the only ones effected are King Kai, Bubbles and Gregory since they're in Otherworld away from everyone via Snake Way. Goku had to bring him there because he can only Instant Transmission to a source of energy. When he brings Cell to King Kai's, King Kai is obviously surprised but simply says "Well you could've called first" with a jovial tone
I mean what's a little death to a god
Yugioh the abridged series would be right up yalls alley.
2:52 if you can't laugh at this joke, then we can't be on the same page.
Nobody ever got the japanese special beam cannon joke 😂😂😂
@ 3:18:46 goku giving cell the senzu bean is the smartest decision he made. The moment cell realized gohan was stronger than him he revert to blow up the Earth through self destruction. Goku prolonged that by giving cell a senzu bean
I
Just
Loved that but at the start
“Well good for you, your wrong” 😂
Having grown up with this series since the namik saga, it always brings a tear to my eyes watching the ending again. Those guys at team four star poured their hearts into this series.
For real. And it's so sad how much adversity from the actual creative team came their way.
Tbeh, I wouldn't be a dragon ball fan without abridged, and I know many people who would at least not be BIG fans, if not fans in general, if not for abridged.
Mr. Satan's first name is Mark, which in Japanese is Akuma (which means devil) with the letters rearranged. Hercule was strictly for the dub.
This is better than the actual saga, i love this
Gives you all the story, even after trimming all the fat. Wonderful.
The disturbing thing isn't the clones its what does he does with the old ones once the new ones are ready? 🤔
I wonder if thats what the shotgun is for 🤔
"its hard to see this as a parody" and this is why Toriyama hated it
Tbh you could argue he also hated it because it made most of the community stupid to believe some of the things in it, like how goku is a bad dad. Goku isn’t the greatest father of all time but he isn’t bad.
@@zerochilling0442anyone who sends their kid to fight their directly superior rival to the death isn't a good dad lol
Literally just finished the Android Saga reaction and then yall dropped this 😂🤣🙌🏾💯
Imagine how hard it was to watch the Abridged series as they released. I remember the trauma still from the last three episodes being so far apart
You guys should watch DragonShortZ by TFS, their so funny. Also their HFIL series! They're both wonderful.
All of their DBZA shorts are absolutely great!
Team Four Star sure know how to make a damn fine transformative work.
That bit about sending a rabbit to the moon is actually true ol, it was like a manga only special chapter of Dragon Ball, back when he was a kid
Nah. Totally happened in the anime. Dumbass rabbit was up there making marshmallows for all the kids of earth.
It was in the dragon ball anime too
I'm still so impressed by Takada101 singing of My Way in Cell's voice, to sing it that well in another voice is absolutely crazy
In og Dragon Ball, Goku actually did send a rabbit to the moon. I can't remember the exact story, but pretty much Goku fought a rabbit mob boss then used the power pole to bring the rabbit and a couple of it's henchmen up to the moon. They were forced to make mochi on the moon and, according to a Q&A (or interview, I forget), once Roshi blew up the moon, they didn't die. They were launched off into space and are supposedly still floating through space to this day.
1:16:40 - Technically they covered it, just in clips and not full episodes. The videos are on their channel as compilations
Their reaction is on their channel somewhere, this is a compilation of all their cell saga reactions, but they watched it a while ago
@@CarbonMage Gotcha
Been waiting for this one😂
I always found it quite cool that the TFS VA for cell sounds hella like the one from the OG dub
The way Gohan's tears slowly evaporated in the burning aura of his new power is also an example of animation that the Super series just lacked. I don't remember seeing even one moment in it where I felt the same coolness and smoothness. It was all just lack of detail on everything from bodies to facial expressions, and the weird shiny rendering, that made characters look like plastic. The Broly movie did it justice, like an updated but still nostalgic look, and Daima at least is a massive improvement over Super, though not quite as good.
3:42:19 I love that they say it has a better soundtrack than the actual show but it is the actual soundtrack (kinda, cover) from the japanese version.
Everytime I watch the cell and trunks conversation about future gohan it gives me chills. Voice actor gives such good delivery
"And he sent a rabbit to the Moon!"
This is in reference to the very beginning of Dragonball [Issue 2; Chapter 7], after Bulma met Goku and Oolong, they started their adventure, and came across a town plagued by the Rabbit Mob. Bulma, at the time, was wearing a bunny suit [like a Playboy bunny] and this town was terrorized by a rabbit-man [named Monster Carrot; he could turn anyone into a carrot with the touch of his hand]. Long story short, Goku sent him and his henchmen to the moon to make marshmallow treats for children [presumably for eternity].
Yeah. After writing it out, it's very farfetched.
1:57:14 Yes, that actually happened. It was during Goku's very first hunt for the dragon balls as a kid. Monster Carrot was a giant rabbit and mob boss that could turn people into carrots and eat them. Goku defeated him with his power pole and then used it to take him to the moon where he was forced to make treats for children for a year. However, the moon was then destroyed by Master Roshi to stop Goku when he turned into Oozaru during the World matial arts tournament.
I been sick at home all week and this brought me SO MUCH JOY 😂😂😂🙏
This has been stated a million times, probably. Akira tried to make Gohan the main character. The fans were not happy. Gohan was always supposed to surpass his father. If Beast Mode Gohan is official, I doubt it will stand to UI Goku. Considering what people end up becoming
Hopefully you saw the last chapter of dragon ball super
Beast gohan is indeed official
During the commentaries, the transmission joke was the only one the creators said they wish they could've taken back (or at least reworded).
i do love how imperfect cell could go from crazy hilarious, to crazy creepy to crazy terrifying, lightning quick
Can we recognise how perfect the perfect cell song is.
"This doesn't go past the Cell Saga does it?"
About that...
"Did he actually take him there?!"
Yes, even in canon Goku took Cell to King Kai's planet and HE'S BEEN DEAD SINCE, in fact it's a running gag that whenever the Z fighters summon a dragon to revive people they ALWAYS forget about reviving King Kai
Can we also take a moment to praise capsule corp. bulma had rags to work with when. Vegita “gave” her his old armor to analyze and scrutinize to try and replicate it.
It took a cell attack and hasn’t ripped.
One year, after episode 59 we waited an entire year for episode 60 part 1, and I have no complaints it was amazing
I cant lie i watch this all interesting and its honestly the most ive been invested in something dragon ball since the original and ive watched most of super.
That file video of android 16 is a great way to explain why 16 especially wants to kill Goku the most out of everyone.
This came at the perfect time
Something I find funny about the whole “16 nuking cell” bit is that cell has the durability to survive planet shattering projectiles, yet it’s heavily implied that cell would have taken either massive damage or he would have died had the nuke gone off
That or the radiation woulda gotten ‘em meruem style
It's 100% better than the original, but we still deeply respect the original.
I just realized when cell said anything can make him pop including “a wafer thin mint” that it was a direct reference to Monty pythons the meaning of life when the big guy exploded from eating one… and for that I have so much more respect for TFS and appreciates them for referencing a classic.
its a hundred percent better than the original, that being said abridged made me find love for the regular dragonball series as a whole all over again
If I remember correctly, I'm pretty sure Toriyama stated somewhere that if Cell hadn't moved, that Final Flash would've killed him. So the Abridged "OH SHIT!" is such a valid abridged line
2:27:40 I'm sorry, I hate this argument. I hate it so much. Yes, people censored shit a lot back in the day. And people were rightly mocked for it. Saying that a group of idiots in the past censored things does not give a right for the next generation of idiots to censor things. It's literally the same.
I'm only just making this connection now(in easily 50+ watchthroughs of Abridged), but I like how how they try to imply that 16 may never have given his speech to Gohan had Gohan chosen to wear a Gi like Goku's, because he hated orange so much.
They did a fantastic job with this. I only wish they echoed Trunks’s “void” when he said it when they first went it.
i ADORE that cell is the nicest to yamcha
28:05 it’s implying that Popo is realizing that he’ll never see kami again and he’s starting to missing him
Every single time I see that art of Android 16, I can't help but tear up. This series is such a masterpiece I think I've actually come to legitimately prefer it over the original. And that's no easy feat.
