Yeah, earthlings in the DB world are very phisically weak but excel at science, just look at the time machine and the androids. They have brains and the saiyans have brawn
@@theazureknight9399 Also up until the Namek saga, Earthlings were unique in that they were able to sense ki without the need for scouters and had such control over their battle power that they could raise and lower it in battle.
Dragon Ball was great because it was about martial arts expertise, training and battle tactics. DBZ fucked it up by introducing power levels, making the earthlings useless as even Nappa could fuck them up, even though he was a dumbass and guys like Krillin and Piccolo had great tactics, it didn't matter cuz power levels.
All things considered this is probably the best fight in the series. 1) Neither fighter gets a powerup partway through; they win with what the strength they start with. 2) It's incredibly even; most DB fights are one-sided. 3) Both fighters react to what the other is doing and come up with counter strategies. 4) It is incredibly brutal. Goku and Piccolo at their best.
Yes, what a wonderful final clash in the prelude to Dragon Ball Z. Kami giving him that training over three years ultimately paid off, still it took all he got to get the win. And he did use that move where he threw a punch and created a shockwave like effect before this fight. That was done before by Demon King Piccolo. Piccolo noticed that resemblance when he did that to win over Chi Chi by ringout. This was the real peak of the original storyline. 🎉
I've been rewatching the older dragon ball sagas and once again It makes me really see the problems with super because it's just if you have a transformation in the fight you win and in the tournament of power you expect people to fight this dirty or wound one another to the degree where they can just be thrown off but instead most people get hurt is scratches here and there. Plus one there was a character far stronger than expected it went down to strategy to win and using everything they got
Anyone who has seen this season will agree. It’s my personal through the whole franchise, but at worst, any knowledgeable fan will agree it was the best of any fight before Z
@@MAR-sc7np Well, that's what I mean. All of Dragon Ball. I think the fights in Z, especially later on and in Super rely too much on gimmicks. This fight was pure energy and drive.
@@MAR-sc7np Eh, Super Broly didn't do much for me. I don't really like rushed fight sequences. Naturally this fight took place over a handful of episodes, Super Broly fight didn't get started until a lot of plot dump. SB was alright though. I just like the choreography in this fight much more.
@@RealCGH no. If you've seen this arc of dragon ball youd know he got a HUGE just straight up power boost in the time skip. He may have become a better fighter, but most of this here is raw power. That's what's making the biggest difference. He could have all this technique and more but if he was as physically powerful as he was vs king piccolo he would have gotten one shot.
@@user-ky9ou5dz9q thanks for the info, but this power up clearly didn't work in his favor and Goku actually found a way to not get attacked. That's what make this power up different from others
They really were something in DB. It took a lot out of them. It was like using life energy at that point. Whereas by DBZ they could auto spam hundreds of blasts.
@@jabroniandcheese9194 90% of blasts were just smoke grenades that left you sitting there waiting for the smoke to clear and see that the villain isn't even hurt
@@jabroniandcheese9194 the only blast that retains this "life energy" kinda gimmick is the Kikoho, and Tien is so underused that we basically never actually see it
8:25 this whole moment has to be one of my favorite scenes from this fight. Great use of technique instead of brute and still had that goku personality on it. This whole fight will remain to be amazing until the end of time
Oh, the controllable Masenko? Yeah. Then followed by a Super Explosive Wave that turned the arena and most of the island to dust and rubble...only for Goku to have enough life force to withstand it!
Plus it was cool before this when Goku gave Piccolo an "inside job." Made an advantage of his greater size by doing that to retrieve Kami from that bottle.
I mean Goku, Gohan, Trunks, and Vegeta worked their assess of to achieve, perfect, and ascend super saiyan but since only a collect few can do it, it's considered cheap bs.
RancidKari exactly! I don’t mind the extra forms, but they really disrespected Super Saiyan with that bullshit. At this point I’ll be expecting Caulifla to turn SSB because she had a “tingling feeling” on her ass.
@@RancidKari In a franchise about constantly raising the stakes and every new villain being more powerful than the last ofcourse Super saiyan is going to become a bit...mundane. I just think the super saiyan transformation and usage was handled alot better than people give it credit for.
@@esotericjahanism5251 Piccolo is Toriyama's favourite character but he says that he had no idea what to do with him after his sacrifice in The Saiyan Saga. He tried to give him bits and pieces, being the only one able to fight Frieza in his second form, being the only one able to stand up to the androids, and teaching the kids fusion; but ultimately it fell apart. He just wants to kind of forget about him now because he doesn't want to drag his character in the mud like what's happened with Vegeta.
That didn’t really happen throughout the entirety of Db or Z tbf? T Sayins were stronger than him, he couldn’t defeat Raditz, so sacrificed him. Trained and got far stronger and beat Nappa, but Vegeta was viable much more powerful. He loses to Raditz and Vegeta, and washed Nappa. Didn’t have a single difficult in the entire Frieza saga, at all. Loses 1 fight in the Android saga, because of his heart condition. And then he gets written out whilst the other z fighters are washed by 17 and 18. Doesn’t fight 16 or imperfect/Semi perfect cell, comes out of the time chamber nearly as strong as cell, and fights him on Evan ground. Both Vegeta and Goku have the power to easily destroy each iteration of buu, but buu can regenerate. You honestly can only point to kid buu in the entire series before super where Goku is beat up most of the battle before winning. If you count movies then it’s different ofcourse. But series wise, he either loses (Raditz and Vegeta) or completely dog walks his opponent.
Dude, this is actually one of the most epic fights I have ever seen! I can't believe I forgot about this one!! I like how its not about obtaining the ultimate power and fighting with what you have. There should be more fights in anime like this one!
It really is one of the best. A lot of big moments in this fight. Ki attacks look so destructive here. And when they actually go hand to hand, they both land and take multiple strikes back and forth.
@@EmptyMan000 Yes. Vegeta reveals upon seeing Piccolo that it's not so surprising that Raditz was done in. Namekians are capable of high battle levels and can also perform mystical feats.
I guess it doen't really help him. He juts gets slow. If you read the Super manga, his ability was just used in the last chapter and it wasn't really successful
@@navi2181 In the original Dragon Ball they said it made him stronger and the larger he got the stronger he became. This doesn't really make sense when you look at other uses of the technique though.
Ki blasts just had more impact back then. I liked how rough they were at times, with miniature auras, sparks and the such. They just have more weight and power behind them. Even into Z they still felt, stronger. Idk how to out it eloquently. But I think after freiza they were a little toned down. And in super way moreso.
Really good, but you miss the trash talking. Mind manipulation is like half of Dragon Ball fights. Like Goku manipulates Piccolo into growing even bigger so he can save Kami, and Piccolo manipulating Goku into taking his attack full on by threatening to kill the people who watch. And they ended up blew the entire continent. Still, great watch. And, Super got NOTHING on this. Super only have watatatata and BS power level. No real struggling, no real blood, no real mind manipulation, no life death situation, etc.
Eureka Adang I mean, the Goku Black Saga is close to your description. They had to go back to the present three times (2 if you read manga), Vegeta had some blood when Black stabbed him in the chest, and when Zeno literally erased everything in the future. You’re right about the no real mind manipulation.
@@futurestarplayer6896 That saga confuses me. Goku said something stupid almost every episodes. Good thing in the manga he said something smart to Vegeta like, " How could you didn't know Vegeta, this is basic," when Vegeta was suprised by Zamasu, while in the Anime it was Vegeta who said that. They really made Goku dumb. Normal Human could stall Black with flash grenade and guns. Black could handle Goku who could blow planets and stars by the SIDE EFFECT of his punches. Really? Black ALWAYS said that he hate ningens, but for MANY episodes he didn't just blow Earth up and done with it. Vegeta got stabbed, and thats it. In Saian saga, in Namek, in Buu Saga, get a hole in your chest/ stomach is a BIG thing, there are BLOODs everywhere, you got dizzy, you cannot walk properly, you struggle, etc. Vegeta got stabbed and thats it. Zeno erazed everything, This is my point. So he is the Villain now? It should be Zamasu who did it.
Eureka Adang You’re right. The two Zamasus could’ve easily destroyed earth and multiple universes if they wanted to. Power scale means nothing in Super and that pisses me off. At this point, Baby Pan could kill Beerus. The only reason why there wasn’t a lot of blood is because of the stupid government rules. If someone can’t handle blood from a fucking anime, then idk what to tell them.
Actually I'd disagree. Piccolo was never ruthless and sadistic. He was literally born to kill Goku so that's going to be a massive downer. Remember, he saved the kid from getting hit by debris from the lightning strike and he only knocked out the wolf and guards that attacked him. His father would have killed them. Also he didn't cut off Goku's arm when he had the chance, despite saying he was going to. Piccolo is only 4, he's just a scared kid and he has no idea what he's doing, he just knows that he was born to kill Goku and that's what he'll do. Also we learn later in The Saiyan Saga that he resets humanity because when he was a child they mistreated him based on his looks, even when he tried to be accommodating. Part of me thinks that when Piccolo stands up for Gohan during the Cell games, when he says "he's just a scared kid wondering why his father is making him fight a monster" he sympathised with Gohan because this is exactly how he felt.
Dbz was full of the same cuts/frames and a lot of janky ass animation mixed in, never looked as fluid as this, I did fuck with the Sayin saga tho goku vs vegita was heat
@@TheMetastasia that’s because flying took more energy than nimbus. The nimbus took zero. Later they mastered flying like super saiyan so they can do it almost forever
honestly? I always thought goku's fight against demon king piccolo was a bit better but there was also vegeta and vs frieza as great fights to and gohan vs cell
I never thought about it but I think I like the original dragonball's softer linework for adult goku and piccolo jr over the later dragonball Z's harsher lines. Just a personal preference thing, thanks for the supercut!
Wow... I forgot how good this was. You can actually follow what they are doing and understand the tactics, how they respond to each move. Nowadays I can barely follow the fight. They just randomly throw punches and blasts. It is too fast nowadays. I think everything post Frieza is kinda hard to follow. I wish they didn't go too far with power.
No actually it was after the cell saga it became hard to follow . In the cell arc you could actually see what techniques Goku used against cell and how Gohan SS2 took his time against cell ..
It only goes to show how far they've come. It's pretty good to me. It's very epic watching Goku and Jiren exchanging punches in such a high speed that we see them completely still or slighty vibrating their arms
@@LuisEduardo-xm3tc I think DBS uses the "light speed" fighting as an excuse to not properly animate proper coreography for their fights. Goku vs Jiren was good but most of it was just the same, mindless punching and ki spheres. In a universe where almost everyone is supposed to be a martial artist you'd expect alot more coordination and coreography within their fights yet now a days it feels so reduced, only certain scenes that have an animator like takahashi, shida or shintani running it feel good, the rest just feels so...lazy and basic. I wish DBS would look back at DB and early DBZ and realize just because their characters are at a godly state doesnt mean we shouldnt be able to see normal paced fights and proper coordinated ones at that. Sadly its pretty much all down to transformations and whos ki beam is bigger so i doubt it will happen, just hoping Shintani brings something new to the table, not just in the animation but the fighting as well
@@TheMeal1317 dragon ball always was like this in my opinion. Like several seconds using the same movements. Even on this goku vs piccolo fight you can see it. Goku ss3 vs kid buu was also clear. Goku vs cell. Vegito vs buu and so on and so on
@@TheMeal1317 honestly, it's good to me. In a world where one punch can destroy a planet, it wouod be weird to see them fight in a small space, withou much destruction and flying around and energy blasts everywhere.
@ShpeedzDaMan " Namekians just age differently." No. This is Piccolo exclusively. His father rushed his ageing process so he'd be ready to fight Goku as soon as possible.
I didnt watch the original DB anime, i instead read the manga. I LOVED it. I was hooked! Finished it in a couple days. The DBZ anime cant keep me hooked the same (im currently half way through the cell saga in DBZ Kai). I dont plan to read the DBZ manga since i wanna watch the fights in anime format. I decided to check this fight because i heard it was well done in the anime, and it sure is!
To think that these two went from being enemies to friends later in life... maybe its true. Some guys just need a good fight in order to understand each other.
This is the peak of all of Dragon Ball. The fight was so creative, visceral, and well animated. Even though I love all of Dragon Ball, Z, and Super, I don't think it ever reached this height again. In part because it felt like the stakes were still real here, and the power levels hadn't gotten completely out of control.
Piccolo’s techniques: 0:01 Consecutive attacks 0:16 Super punch 0:25 Rapid Movement 0:32 Arm elongation 0:49 Ki blasts 0:54 Continuous Ki blasts 1:08 Electricity generation 1:11 Electric punch 1:33 Eyes blast 2:24 Ki cannon 3:07 Super Ki cannon 3:45 Gigantification 5:31 Eye blast attack 6:06 Super gigantification 7:50 Antennas beams 8:23 Pursuer bullet 9:22 Regeneration 9:30 Explosive wave 11:17 Mouth blast 11:45 Energy cut 12:36 Death beam 12:44 Super ki blast
Piccolo, one of the best dragonball characters. From an evil villian to a great support. Hope there will be more great namekian who could merge with him to make him even stronger
I was hoping for Piccolo to fuse with the universe 6 Namekians he & Gohan fought during the tournament of power. And then start training with Whis after fusing with them.
This is right up there as my one of my favorite fights in all of Animation, and my second favorite fight in Dragon Ball And it saddens me how may Dragon Ball fans haven’t seen it, or this era of the series
God, I love original Dragon Ball its fights like this where the people only depended on hand to hand and ki based attacks and coordination and quick thinking skills not Kaioken or Super Sayain, and the animation was straight up smooth af. Toriyama (RIP) was straight up cooking when he made this fight, and the anime does it justice. Easily PEAK Dragon Ball content right here 🔥🔥

My friend , have a look at the King piccolo saga in Dragonball. It's how it all started. Directly after the end of the tournament and the legendary fight against Tienshinhan. You will love it. The normal Piccolo we know from z is ( kind of ) the son of King Piccolo.
9:35 I got word the power level of Piccolo when he released that later Super Explosive Demon Wave attack was 750. And the peak power levels confirmed were Goku at about 900 when he did the Max Power Kamehameha with Piccolo about 850 when he launched the earlier max power Explosive Demon Wave.
Piccolo is supposed to be the reincarnation of kind piccolo as his age was higher than master roshi's. Since king piccolo was already old as when M.R. was still young. That makes him the oldest Z fighter
@Frank Scott He killed Demon King Piccolo 2 or 3 days after the 22nd world tournament* And 3 years after, Piccolo Jr fights Goku in the 23rd world tournament. Goku is 18 or 19 years old in this fight by the way. Lol
Og Dragon ball was best. Characters like Piccolo were ruthless and cold. The fights were never one sided. And this fight is db at its finest. Now piccolo is a baby sitter who some times is defeated by a fodder(Like Raditz). Its now a Goku and Vegeta show.

Like Goku manipulates Piccolo into growing even bigger so he can save Kami, and Piccolo manipulating Goku into taking his attack full on by threatening to kill the people who watch. And they ended up blew the entire continent.
Still, great watch. And, Super got NOTHING on this. Super only have watatatata and BS power level. No real struggling, no real blood, no real mind manipulation, no life death situation, etc.
Eureka Adang I mean, the Goku Black Saga is close to your description. They had to go back to the present three times (2 if you read manga), Vegeta had some blood when Black stabbed him in the chest, and when Zeno literally erased everything in the future. You’re right about the no real mind manipulation.
@@futurestarplayer6896 That saga confuses me.
Goku said something stupid almost every episodes. Good thing in the manga he said something smart to Vegeta like, " How could you didn't know Vegeta, this is basic," when Vegeta was suprised by Zamasu, while in the Anime it was Vegeta who said that. They really made Goku dumb.
Normal Human could stall Black with flash grenade and guns. Black could handle Goku who could blow planets and stars by the SIDE EFFECT of his punches. Really?
Black ALWAYS said that he hate ningens, but for MANY episodes he didn't just blow Earth up and done with it.
Vegeta got stabbed, and thats it. In Saian saga, in Namek, in Buu Saga, get a hole in your chest/ stomach is a BIG thing, there are BLOODs everywhere, you got dizzy, you cannot walk properly, you struggle, etc. Vegeta got stabbed and thats it.
Zeno erazed everything, This is my point. So he is the Villain now? It should be Zamasu who did it.
Eureka Adang You’re right. The two Zamasus could’ve easily destroyed earth and multiple universes if they wanted to. Power scale means nothing in Super and that pisses me off. At this point, Baby Pan could kill Beerus. The only reason why there wasn’t a lot of blood is because of the stupid government rules. If someone can’t handle blood from a fucking anime, then idk what to tell them.
One of the best fights in DB History!!
Agreed.
Back when Piccolo was ruthless and sadistic, instead of babysitting the grandchild of the person he originally wanted to kill
Not only that, but he babysitted Goten also
And his son
@@hollowdriller670 you meant gohan
Actually I'd disagree. Piccolo was never ruthless and sadistic. He was literally born to kill Goku so that's going to be a massive downer. Remember, he saved the kid from getting hit by debris from the lightning strike and he only knocked out the wolf and guards that attacked him. His father would have killed them. Also he didn't cut off Goku's arm when he had the chance, despite saying he was going to. Piccolo is only 4, he's just a scared kid and he has no idea what he's doing, he just knows that he was born to kill Goku and that's what he'll do. Also we learn later in The Saiyan Saga that he resets humanity because when he was a child they mistreated him based on his looks, even when he tried to be accommodating. Part of me thinks that when Piccolo stands up for Gohan during the Cell games, when he says "he's just a scared kid wondering why his father is making him fight a monster" he sympathised with Gohan because this is exactly how he felt.
Lanpanda well the comment said grandchild and gotten is the only grandchild so he probably meant gohan unless he made a mistake typing
This was so amazing. I felt like I was watching a flashback music video! You did such an amazing job making this! Thanks for sharing this with us!
Dragon Ball was good up until they started fighting in loops
Facts
This fight had loops 💀 if you pay close attention when they’re punching and dodging it’s the same animation looped
And also, it was awesome until they removed blood
Angel Cos it’s blood in super 💀 kinda rare tho
If it ended with Namek's explosion DBZ would've been a master piece.
The animation here is infinitely better than anything in super hands down...
Goku/ Jiren fight?
Nah I disagree in my opinion I think DBS had the best animation
@@commandercheese7408 nice bait
@@theofficialbruhfish8094 what?
Dbz was full of the same cuts/frames and a lot of janky ass animation mixed in, never looked as fluid as this, I did fuck with the Sayin saga tho goku vs vegita was heat
Best fight in history this masterpiece will never be forgotten this legend will live on forever👏👏👏👏👍👍👍
Here to rewatch one of my all-time favorite fights. Rip toriyama ❤
Most epic ending. He learned the ability to fly during the fight and used it to win it.
You mean levitate? It was named "levitate technique" those days
Ha. I killed him. There's nothing left of him.
Me missile locked on!
Not really. Goku still used his Cloud at the beginning of Z
Oh so that was it?! I didn't understand how he managed to escape but this explanation seems ok I guess.
@@TheMetastasia that’s because flying took more energy than nimbus. The nimbus took zero. Later they mastered flying like super saiyan so they can do it almost forever
6:30 goku taking the term "throat punch" literally.
The most underrated fight of dragon ball
It's prolly the best in the whole franchise too
@@RealCGH Nah I'd say Goku vs Frieza on Namek slightly outclasses it by a tad but this is 2nd best for sure.
@@kingp260 debatable but the Goku Vs Picollo fight had more techniques and strategy
honestly? I always thought goku's fight against demon king piccolo was a bit better but there was also vegeta and vs frieza as great fights to and gohan vs cell
Vegeta vs goku is only as good because of the sub text and it ripped straight from this one
I never thought about it but I think I like the original dragonball's softer linework for adult goku and piccolo jr over the later dragonball Z's harsher lines. Just a personal preference thing, thanks for the supercut!
The designs here are definitely really good. They won't a little softer in Super Broly movie
Wow... I forgot how good this was. You can actually follow what they are doing and understand the tactics, how they respond to each move. Nowadays I can barely follow the fight. They just randomly throw punches and blasts. It is too fast nowadays. I think everything post Frieza is kinda hard to follow. I wish they didn't go too far with power.
No actually it was after the cell saga it became hard to follow .
In the cell arc you could actually see what techniques Goku used against cell and how Gohan SS2 took his time against cell ..
It only goes to show how far they've come. It's pretty good to me. It's very epic watching Goku and Jiren exchanging punches in such a high speed that we see them completely still or slighty vibrating their arms
@@LuisEduardo-xm3tc I think DBS uses the "light speed" fighting as an excuse to not properly animate proper coreography for their fights. Goku vs Jiren was good but most of it was just the same, mindless punching and ki spheres. In a universe where almost everyone is supposed to be a martial artist you'd expect alot more coordination and coreography within their fights yet now a days it feels so reduced, only certain scenes that have an animator like takahashi, shida or shintani running it feel good, the rest just feels so...lazy and basic. I wish DBS would look back at DB and early DBZ and realize just because their characters are at a godly state doesnt mean we shouldnt be able to see normal paced fights and proper coordinated ones at that. Sadly its pretty much all down to transformations and whos ki beam is bigger so i doubt it will happen, just hoping Shintani brings something new to the table, not just in the animation but the fighting as well
@@TheMeal1317 dragon ball always was like this in my opinion. Like several seconds using the same movements. Even on this goku vs piccolo fight you can see it. Goku ss3 vs kid buu was also clear. Goku vs cell. Vegito vs buu and so on and so on
@@TheMeal1317 honestly, it's good to me. In a world where one punch can destroy a planet, it wouod be weird to see them fight in a small space, withou much destruction and flying around and energy blasts everywhere.
That was awesome. Know I want to watch dragon ball even more.
Awesome video bro.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
thank you. :D
Big green man fights little boy! Boom bom, very fun!
Potato King Goku’s 18 By this time Though.
@@luislazotheoof fights. *L i t t l e b o y*

Thats what she said
This is in my top 10 favorite fights
Anyone remember the first appearance of Piccolo Jr ? It was so epic
Nice Job with the editing. Rock on dude! 👍Definitely deserve more subs
With the music this almost feels like a tribute.
I didnt watch the original DB anime, i instead read the manga. I LOVED it. I was hooked! Finished it in a couple days. The DBZ anime cant keep me hooked the same (im currently half way through the cell saga in DBZ Kai). I dont plan to read the DBZ manga since i wanna watch the fights in anime format. I decided to check this fight because i heard it was well done in the anime, and it sure is!
Why is this so good wtf
To think that these two went from being enemies to friends later in life... maybe its true. Some guys just need a good fight in order to understand each other.
6:39 confirmed goku is piccolo's son
Still one of the best fights in the series
this song fit so well!
This is the peak of all of Dragon Ball. The fight was so creative, visceral, and well animated. Even though I love all of Dragon Ball, Z, and Super, I don't think it ever reached this height again. In part because it felt like the stakes were still real here, and the power levels hadn't gotten completely out of control.

Piccolo, one of the best dragonball characters. From an evil villian to a great support. Hope there will be more great namekian who could merge with him to make him even stronger
ikr, been rooting for him since DB series, in new broly series perhaps? can't wait
@@PogManEX His power is always greatly increase after merging. Hope to see that again in super.
I was hoping for Piccolo to fuse with the universe 6 Namekians he & Gohan fought during the tournament of power. And then start training with Whis after fusing with them.
Well he could just learn UI as it is not necessary limited to Sayans....
You got your wish
This is right up there as my one of my favorite fights in all of Animation, and my second favorite fight in Dragon Ball
And it saddens me how may Dragon Ball fans haven’t seen it, or this era of the series
So much hand to hand combat..... Those were the good old days.
Piccolo was so underrated as a villain
God, I love original Dragon Ball its fights like this where the people only depended on hand to hand and ki based attacks and coordination and quick thinking skills not Kaioken or Super Sayain, and the animation was straight up smooth af. Toriyama (RIP) was straight up cooking when he made this fight, and the anime does it justice. Easily PEAK Dragon Ball content right here 🔥🔥
Hey guys, thanx for watching the video and liking or disliking it. I made another video from the DBS Broly movie, but I just can't upload it here, cause it would be taken down right away, so if you wanna see Vegeta, Goku and Gogeta vs Broly, check this out. thank you.

Your mini picture amazing! I draw dbz super etc in my channel, here i draw piccolo, support me subscribe thks a lot
th-cam.com/video/EuB8GBvMYqE/w-d-xo.html
Excellent video 👍
Really love this fight this one if my favorite bc it shows Goku had to use his power and techniques without a power up
One of the greastest matches. Piccolo is one of my favourite characters.
Am I the only one who thinks that he looks like Gohan? 5:29
No no, he's got a point
John Gaming Maybe they got Gohan from this...?
Ravensfan4life he is indeed
This was the best fight out of all the other fights from db dbz and ESPECIALLY DBS.
9:30 When its too cold
Back then when dragon ball actually understood and utilized martial arts in its fight sequences.
7:40 and that’s start of toriyama making Goku into superman
The air punch was freaking sick 😮
The ultra instinct theme goes with anything.
This music just makes it so much better. From epic to LEGENDARDY
don't think i ever seen when they fought before (only seen when Piccolo was respectful) .. that was awesome :D
This is the fight that basically made Z what it is. A fitting end to the original Dragon ball series
My friend , have a look at the King piccolo saga in Dragonball. It's how it all started. Directly after the end of the tournament and the legendary fight against Tienshinhan. You will love it.
The normal Piccolo we know from z is ( kind of ) the son of King Piccolo.
9:14 - 9:17 oh my gosh! the end of the battle between super perfect cell and teen gohan did reference for piccolo versus goku? this is amazing!
Best fight in the series.
glad this gem is still up
Fantastic!!!!
9:35 I got word the power level of Piccolo when he released that later Super Explosive Demon Wave attack was 750.
And the peak power levels confirmed were Goku at about 900 when he did the Max Power Kamehameha with Piccolo about 850 when he launched the earlier max power Explosive Demon Wave.
No one talking about the fact piccolo shoots lasers from his eyes and then never does it again?
He does it quite a bit in the Saiyan saga
@@lolmatt9 yea but those are less lasers and more, “my eyes glow then something explodes.”
Best tournament when others still know that energy moves are not tricks til dbz came along and now they think it's tricks :/
There was more blood in that fight than entire Super
And brutaility, and the struggle, and the manipulation, and the trash talking.
Imagine getting this type of fighting throughout the entire series
Looking back, Goku had a lot of holes in his chest.
This is a masterpiece
Now come to think of it picolo was only 2 years of age back then
No, 4 years
Piccolo is supposed to be the reincarnation of kind piccolo as his age was higher than master roshi's. Since king piccolo was already old as when M.R. was still young. That makes him the oldest Z fighter
@Frank Scott
He killed Demon King Piccolo 2 or 3 days after the 22nd world tournament*
And 3 years after, Piccolo Jr fights Goku in the
23rd world tournament.
Goku is 18 or 19 years old in this fight by the way.
Lol
This, Goku Vs. Vegeta and Goku Vs. Frieza.
These 3 are the top battles of all time. Jiren Vs. Goku, Frieza and 17 plus Gohan Vs. Cell are also top 5.
This one of anybody else's favorite fights in the series?
Definitely number 1 for me.
Mine vegito vs super buu is second
@@pixelpog45 definitely a part but it's the overall feel of the fight. The attacks are so brutal.
NO.1 is only 1 that's makes me die heart fan of series GOKU VS FREIZA
Back when Not every KI blast destroyed the whole universe...
Good ol days where transformations were mon existant
3:55 Fun fact, as said by Piccolo himself Gigantification doesn't boost his power at all. In reality it just gives Piccolo more mass.
And later makes him open for an inside job.
And to think some “fans” will try and tell you this amazing fight and the ones before it are “optional.”
Goku vs Vegeta is still the best
anyone saying that has probably only watched Z.
@@toddgarver5397 both Goku vs Vegeta fights were pretty good. I like the first one more, but I guess that's cause it lasted longer.
@@toddgarver5397 goku vs vegeta is just a rebut version of goku vs picolo lmao
Dang this fight was incredible. Better than most you'd so on Z in my opinion.
No Goku vs Freiza is best and greatest fight in whole anime nothing is close to that at all
Piccolo ended up being his friend and Gohan's babysitter
Og Dragon ball was best. Characters like Piccolo were ruthless and cold. The fights were never one sided. And this fight is db at its finest. Now piccolo is a baby sitter who some times is defeated by a fodder(Like Raditz). Its now a Goku and Vegeta show.
Piccolo will always be the goat.
He still is a good supporting character.
