I remember seeing a video of you guys vlogging at that Wrestlemania years ago. Does that video still exist?
I will become gay now for a second to tell you whole heartedly: I love u
I will never see Goten like before… thx😂
.
I'm not ready for this show to end a second time
I'm hoping that this is a build up to an exciting announcement. Maybe the buu bits made them realize this is their calling 🙏
Now they have to react to the Creator Commentary
@@matthewmishley8457if they were gonna start doing the buu saga no way in hell would they have released the buu bits
Me nither
@@wild4934 This is why I don't understand people who think they're going to make a full Season 4.
The craziest part about Goku grabbing Dende is that they have NEVER met. Literally a complete stranger grabbing him out of nowhere
Maybe gohan tell him about him while In the time chamber?
True, in this version of events, it was Dende's decision to leave Goku behind.
Lol, right! because Dende got sniped by Freezer’s “final” transformation
The closest thing to an interaction they had was Dende taunting Freeza right before getting popped away by the dragonballs, while Goku was floating nearby.
Hmm, maybe that's why Goku decided to grab Dende. There is a dragonball association there.
I mean think about it they got a day worth the year so they must talk about *something*
Kaiser: "I can do effeminate character"
Oh he knows we love him, you know we love you!
He knows we love him, THE Kaiserneko.
seriously though who put that do-rag on him
*hat
Sharpener bit is one of my favorites so I'm glad to see it in comments.
I see what you did there
“Cornucopia” is what a group of slugs is called, so Piccolos response to krillen is actually accurate. 10/10 joke
No way! 😮
That's the point. I imagine they looked it up
I feel disappointed. Cornucopia should be the collective noun for snails. For slugs, it should be a nudist colony.
But still, that's a good joke.
PICCOLO
STICK HIM IN THE CORNUCOPIA
ADRENALINE RUSH ADRENALINE RUSH
Fanfiction or not: the 16 backstory is one of the single best things about the abriged series if almost _hallowed_ quality to me. Mark as Freeza, Piccolo talking to Nail and Kami in his head, the Day of Fate cover, expanded Krillin and 18 relationship, and this scene.
Gohan’s tense relationship with his dad due not to maliciousness or neglect but fundamental misunderstandings of character leading to him to the point where he’s, to put it in his own words, “got some shit to work through” is also such a great addition.
Add the androids sibling like relationship, 16 having an actual personality, and the gradual disillusionment of Trunks as he sees all of his heroes and legends become very humanized, and you’ve got something that elevates the original story, not undercuts it.
Who the hell is Mark?
Seriously when they had Nail continue to talk to picollo my immediate reaction was: that is so brilliant. aside from allowing dialogue without lip flaps (though the use of various picollo expressions make it funnier) i love that IT MAKES SENSE WITH HIS CHARACTER.
The one thing i never liked was how the stoic and independent picollo took really very little convincing from nail to fuse. to have a part left unfused always felt *right*
@@redfalconfox LittleKuriboh, the guy who made Yu-gi-oh Abridged, and therefore, basically the reason the concept of "abridged series" exist.
@@Juju2927in fairness, his name is Martin, not Mark 😂
“I feel like a man dying of thirst watching another man drown”
That line still lives in my head rent free
Same. It’s a good line. You can apply it to so many scenarios
Same here buddy
Chin up Krillin you'll be quenching on mineral water soon!
Me in my single days listening to my friends in relationships 😂☠️
Still remains on my favorite lines LMAO
18:30 I unironically love the idea that Grampa Gohan is an overprotective (ghost) dad who always thinks his grandson needs to be coddled.
Gohan: Goku's not old enough to understand!
Chi-Chi: He's almost 30!
Gohan: *He's just a **_BOY!_*
Gohan just doesn't realize that saiyan men like those kinds of women, despite the fact they've been together for over a decade, and the fact that he likely knew Ox King, who directly says that Chi Chi is, and I quote, 'just like her mother.'
"But he's just a baby!"
Also Taka went full Mr.Crocker there lol
That was my first thought too with "Bulma! Sex makes babies!"
Goku has just had an epiphany and immediately goes to tell his oldest and smartest friend, to see if she know about this.
I love how Trunks has become so disillusioned with everyone that he's ready to snap at Gohan of all people
And then pulls it right back because he couldn't get mad at him.
Puddlehan really got him on PTSD
Never meet your heroes, am I right?
“If y’all don’t think sex is funny, y’all are boring during sex”
Kaiser needs a dis track for all us nerds out here
I like to think that Dende’s sass is the “hidden power” that Guru released.
That kinda works since before all his lines were sorta quiet and naive (what are boobs, please my name is Dende, etc). I remember his yelling "AHHH! WHAT THE HELL?!" after Guru did it caught me off guard and then he flies off without a word and even sasses Frieza as he passes by. Plus the sass he gave Vegeta.
this is now in my headcanon!
i wonder if this is when krillin became nicer too
@@jessicestKrillin's change came after Maron ripped him off, and then booked him for insurance fraud.
You say this but it’s genuinely an intentional unintentional thing that happens.
Literally the second he screams after guru touches his head he just shouts with a more confident but deeper and clearer more annoyed voice
And he pretty much just got more outspoken and sassy since then
Literally his last words before dying in front of vegeta was
“I’m your white mate, and NOBODY fucks with the white mage”
The path to buu saga dense was already panning out in the freeza saga
Only real difference in the cell saga is his voice. 💀
Dende smacking krillin after popo said he liked him definitely got him even more of popos respect
"Life is, you don't exist, now you do, that's funny as hell.
You had no say in the matter, now you have anxiety. That's Priceless!" -Takahata
that's sounds like some supervillain dialogue
@@SuperKiobi13
Tweak a word or two, and that’s definitely a Mr. Perfect Cell line
Could easily put that in Hitchhiker's Guide
"You have no say in the matter, now you have anxiety" I felt that in my BONES
Mood.
@@goldenwing6560yeah 😂😅
and now you don't wanna stop doing it, you exist, and now you don't want to not-exist, and eventually, YOU WON'T
once again, you have no say in the matter
MY BONES BERTO! MY BONES!!!
You didn't ask to be born, now you don't wanna die.
"Our story begins, as many so often do, with a young girl shooting a little boy in the face!" One of my favorite lines.
A classic setup.
I always loved the "Damn ghosts!" joke because I always noticed that yeah, the book flies off and bonks her on the head for no reason. Never noticed the little "Boo!" right before it though, makes it even better!"
It has always been a silly bit of animation, and I’m glad they called it out.
Goku finding out how babies are made and his first instinct is to run and tell Bulma is so funny but also very sweet considering their history. Bulma is his first friend, she’s like the big sister he never had. The added detail on how unfazed Bulma is with him suddenly popping in her lab and also not shock that he didn’t know sex makes babies is also genius cause she’s so used to Goku and how he is that she’s not surprised that he just found this fact out despite already having a kid XD
I mostly thought that it was him warning her, because it's Goku, and even though she has a kid. Because Goku isn't going to remember that Trunks is Bulma's kid.
@@heathergarnham9555 I don’t think that’s the case considering how Lani, Kaiser and Taka talk about it in this video, seeming to insinuate that Goku discovered that a mind blowing fact he wanted to tell his longest known friend
@@thefabuloustrash05 I said that's what I thought when I first saw it. Obviously. 🙄🙄🙄
@@heathergarnham9555 I’m sorry but you didn’t make that part clear. You wrote it as if that’s what you still think, you wrote no indication that you no longer think that. You said “I mostly think that” not “I used to think that”. No need to be rude 🤨
@thefabuloustrash05 why would I think that when I've watched the reaction? That is a bizarre thing to assume. Don't blame me for you misreading things. And I wasn't rude, if I was going to be rude I'd call you an idiot and and tell you that personally you should retake English , so that you can interpret a basic sentence. That would be rude, sarcasm isn't being rude.
"You didn't exist, and now you do. You had NO SAY in the matter, now you have anxiety" damn... you are hilarious and we will quote everything you say.
Yup
“Guysss, don’t tell her I’m here…”
The sheer stupidity of Goku in this episode is gold
In this episode. Only in this episode.
(Riffing on the 13 movie, not being a dick)
He's treating her like a dinosaur. If he doesn't move, mayyybe she won't notice him
The audio editing during Gevo's message to his father is really impressive. As a parakeet owner, I love the detail of Gevo's bird getting upset the *instant* the base alarm begins to sound.
It's without a doubt my favourite edition to Season 3 of DBZA. It's no wonder that this is a top rated episode for many.
One other thing I like is that drone playing in the background getting louder and louder until you start hearing the alarm
Bulma being Goku's oldest friend legit makes me cry. It's literally so sweet.
I NEVER HEARD THE GRANDPA GOHAN teeny little "boo" before. I just burst out laughing.
So many jokes are at such low volume that I’m hearing them for the first time while listening with Headphones. This is crazy.
I will forever love that you just made a whole episode dedicated to Goku and Chi-Chi’s sex life. Also I can’t believe Grandpa Gohan is just haunting their house. That is perfect.
Gohan is there because he wants to make sure his adopted son is having the best life he can. He throws the book because, even after more than a decade, he doesn't understand that saiyans like a woman who can -and will- be aggressive with them.
I believe the reason he didn’t want 17 and 18 to wake up 16 is cause…he was scared of loosing the only thing that reminds him of his son….the only bits that are left…those memories
He also wasn't finished honestly, which makes it even worse because he didn't even get to fully reconstruct his son.
Losing*
@@ssj4gogeta77 I said what I said so hush
Also with 16's ki sencing he'll keep cell away from 17 and 18
@someone8193 huh, actually with the fact that 17 & 18 were required for cell to reach perfect form. The lack of energy sensing in them actually makes sense
To me, the Android 16 / Gero's son message is where DBZA most noticeably goes beyond beeing a parody. It becomes an extension and enrichment to the original story. I love this scene.
It's by far exhibit A of DBZA being equal parts parody and passion project.
I like it, but you can’t really call it Abridged at that point. Abridged versions are supposed to shorten a series, not add things.
@@adams3560By that logic, every joke or gag that wasn't from the original show (aka the things many people love the most) shouldn't be there
@@adams3560The entire series is a parody. You can add or remove whatever you want in a parody adaption. The "abridged" concept is just the framework the parody works with. There is no law of fiction that says abridged adaptions must only contain cut down original material and nothing else.
@@pacmonster066The word abridge means to shorten. Adding new content would be lengthening. Of course the dialogue is also changed, because it is both an abridgment and a parody.
When I read the words abridged parody I think “ok, short version with jokes.” Not “short version with jokes and then stuff added.”
"What do you call a group of humans?"
"An infestation."
I use this one every chance i get.
Cell is so well written. He always goes with the flubs because he completely comprehends that all other beings are imperfect - and as THE perfect being - he rolls with it to emphasize that point. Genius.
This episode has so many good “million dollar lines” as Taka puts it, but one that I think people sleep on is:
“Well when dad gets out of the Time Machine he’ll probably want to take a swing at you.”
“I knew it!”
I just love the idea that Goku has wondered if Vegeta is a swinger. Man has room for only two things in his brain: food and fighting. But somewhere, in some corner, he’s wondered if Vegeta swings XD
I THINK the actual intention of the joke was more just Vegeta being in love with Goku, since Goku is escaping from someone hitting on him. Thus he interprets Gohan's comment as "Vegeta wants to bone you". I never thought of this specifically being a swinger joke
in whatever amount of thought he had, vegeta's hate boner looked more like an actual boner to goku
@@Senny_Vit was Trunks who mentioned Vegeta wanting to take a swing at him, not Gohan
When Guru unlocked Dende's potential, he was really just unleashing his true personality.
So wait, does that mean since Dende is Guru's grandchild... do ALL the Namekians have the capability to act like Guru after they're potential is unlocked?
@@toxicdemon1315 Yes
the best part of this is how close it is to the dub. Goku does just pop into the lab and Bulma doesn't even jump. She is just like "Oh you can just pop in and out of places now. Neat!"
Didn’t Bulma learn that Goku can do that shortly after he returns to Earth from Yardrat? It’s not new information to her, so it’s not unexpected that he’d just be able to pop in.
@@BlusterTheBenevolent yeah but even knowing someone can literally appear next to you at any time doesn't mentally prepare you for when they actually do it. There has to be a very high level of trust for Goku to just appear out of nowhere and Bulma not even act surprised

Well sucks to be you. I see it as an improvement. Kind of makes more sense his name is Piccolo now.

*_AYOOOO_* 🤣🤣🤣
@@ZeldaboyOGJesus Christ💀
"Is his mouth his dick?"
T4S handle Cell so well: he’s ALMOST likeable the way he bounces off others and talks, but then you have moments where you’re reminded that this guy is not a genius, he’s an EVIL genius.
Affably evil
MISTER evil Genius
Cell: Oh, you were a villain, Frieza. Just not a super one.
Frieza: And what's the difference?
Cell: Presentation.
[evaporates]
This episode is like the “Ember Island Players” episode of Avatar: The Last Airbender. Everybody is taking the day off from the big impending threat to relax, take care of chores and side preparations, and reflect on how we all got here.
Great comparison.
Every shonen could use an Ember Island Players episode right before the grand finale.
@@zigslotheonfr
Headcanon: When Gero was working on the androids, trying to make them function, having to scrap ideas and whole models because they were flawed, and hitting brick wall after brick wall before he got something that worked, I imagine he would bring up and play his son's last message to remind himself of what he'd lost and why he was doing this. And probably break down crying right after.
Pretty heavy stuff for a parody show, and I love it.
It should be noted that goku fought androids in dragon ball.
But it's clear Gero had been making Androids all the way up until he and 19 were ready.
He wouldn't cry. The anger would motivate him.
Goku learned how to keep ChiChi happy by studying the Kame Sutra.
...Roshi probably would right that.
Goku: "Master Roshi. I need your training again"
Roshi: "I think you're a bit above my skill level. What kind of training are you expecting?"
Goku: "Chi Chi keeps trying to do some weird things in the bedroom, and I can't keep up."
Roshi: "My boy. It's an honor to once again call you my pupil."
The fact that TFS nappa voice is memorialized in a video game is awesome!
Yeah, I love that. Best character to appear in an abridged series deserves it.
When I made my Frieza character in the first game, I freaked out when I used Crusher Ball for the first time and heard *”SPACE AUSTRALIA!!!”*
@@estebanramirez1178It was such a great surprise.
"Every aspect of life is hilarious"
God damn, Taka, that's deep. You should become a Vtuber
A Takatuber
Please don't encourage him.
Super Kame Dende on the Lookout, noooooo...
@@JustinWahlne...You know he's already had one for years right?
@@DarkonFullPower yeah, he's making the commentary in an ironic tone
I personally think that video you guys made of Dr. Gero's son was your magnum opus of the series. Maybe not the best you've done with DBZA, but it was practically the culmination and perfection of everything you've all learned and mastered since the beginning.
Bravo, TeamFourStar.
When what basically is a headcanon in a parody has a better, WAY better backstory than the Canon that people decide to ignore the latter.
@@Juju2927Nah, the show didn't need to have Goku kill Gero's son to have Gero hate Goku, defeating the Red Ribbon army was enough.
Not to mention when they first meet Android Gero, Gero just doesn't instantly try to kill Goku because he would if Goku had killed his son. Instead he sends Android 19 which kind of makes Goku killing Gero's son pointless if it was meant to add more reasons for Gero to kill Goku.
This is one of the times where TFS's fanfiction doesn't add anything to the story.
@@okagron Shhhhhhh!
@@okagron huh, so this is what eldritch logic looks like
@@okagronthe man probably got brain damage putting his brain in an android, created multiple androids that are meant to kill Goku, and was killed by his own creations. I feel when gero became an android he just had a program that says "Kill Goku....." and doesn't tell him why. As much as it is Fan Fiction it's not that far fetched especially if you look at the Fighterz story line
Oh my god I never knew about the Grandpa Gohan saying boo. That’s incredible!
Me neither
I didn't know that was supposed to be Grandpa Gohan.
I never heard that "boo" before today and never would have if Lani hadn't pointed it out here. These commentaries just enhance the replay value of the show.
The hidden message from Gero’s son is a masterful piece of writing, partly because it’s so simple yet it hits sooo hard, my first watch I actually had to pause because it was such an emotional moment, especially as it’s dropped into the Slice Of Life episode which just amplifies the emotion of it all. Throw in the soft music and this is just perfection.
I don’t care it’s essentially fan faction, I happily adopt it to my head canon.
LMAO, the beginning talk about sex was SPOT-ON! Also, I agree, the fan-head-cannon of Goku inadvertently blowing up Gero's son as a kid is the best way to explain Gero's building android to kill Goku obsession. That SHOULD be canon IMHO.
I'm trying to recall the source, but apparently Android 13 was also one of Gero's sons and worked as a gunrunner for the RR, then later volunteered for the Android program. Given he isn't a main canon character, so it doesnt matter too much.
@@josephperez2004that is just a popular fan theory
"Inadvertently"? Goku was attacking the Red Ribbon Army HQ and Gero's son Gevo was a soldier in the Red Ribbon Army. Are you telling me Goku only wanted to destroy the buildings and not kill anyone or what?
@@faceoctopus4571 No, in advertently as in, he was firing a Kamehameha at some helicopters but a building tower was in the way so he blasted through it. Inadvertently means he didn't know anybody was in the tower. He didn't know anyone was in in the tower as his attack was intended for the helicopters.
Goku’s casual outfit in this part of the Cell saga with the jacket is really underrated
I mean bro has no drip but it still hits
I could not stop thinking that. It's such a beautiful 90's ass look. He's dressed like a football dad and somehow that look is entirely in character for someone like Goku.
Did it show up as a costume in any of the games?
Cos...missed opportunity if not.
It looks really good on him.
Right? Casual SS Goku is probably his best look next to how he looks when first getting SS against Freezer
Years from now this take on 16 and Gero's backstory will be assumed to be canon by most DB fans and nobody will think to question it. That's how good it is.
Up until now I thought it WAS canon! I didn’t know Toriyama had said Gevo died from a gunshot.
Like they said in here, it's kind of insane that it's not canon
@@tobiogunyemi7631 I'm with them (TFS) on that one. I guess Toriyama and the rest just didn't want that blood on Goku's hand. It's one thing for nameless villain mooks to potentially die offscreen, it's another to have the blood of a named, character and it be the mastermind villain's son no less, even if father and son were far from innocent.
@@nousername191Its kinda more poetic that way. In the main canon, Gevo was as much dedicated to the RR army as Gero, if not more. He was more violent than 16, and he died for the beliefs of the Army. Then Goku shows up and destroy the whole thing that he died for. Gero wanna kill Goku, bc he not only annihiliated the army, but also his son will, and what remained of him (this is why he created 16). This explanation is good for canon, bc it's dosent change Gero's motivation, but adds much more layer to the reason why he was so dedicated to the RR plans while the tfs verson have a more direct impact, shows Goku's actions in a different light, and much more suitable for a scene that shows these events.
Now that Gero modeling 16 after his deceased son is canon, I'm betting a lot people are already assuming that. I doubt most people will actually look up how Gevo really died.
My best friend is engaged and I always use the “man dying of thirst watching another man drown” line whenever he starts talking about sex.
So fun fact, the leading theory is that since King Piccolo and Kami were dragon-clan, they could only get so powerful. And when Goku beat KP, he specifically created Jr as a Warrior-clan so that he'd have the strength to beat this new powerful Goku for revenge. That's why Piccolo Jr never had the ability to create minions like his father could, and all the rest; it was a clan shift.
I fucking loved grown up Dende in the Buu Bits. How sassy he becomes and how buddy buddy he is with Popo
Popo merely tolerated Kami’s presence. He actively enjoys Dende’s.
Mr satan: I see you for more than you're balls
Dende: You're daughters a man stealing w*ore.
Unlike Kami, Dende actually fires back.
You guys are right. This episode has strong Animaniacs "Finger Prince"/"Finger Prints" joke energy.
Exactly the example I thought of.
"You had no say in the matter and now you have anxiety" - Taka explaining the human condition
That Android 16 scene you guys added makes you realize just how terrifying Goku was, and why the good doctor would want him dead.
Goku racks up a lotta kills in og dragon ball, but in Z, he dies twice and kills one person, in that order. (The person he kills, is buu)
@@collector8502Kid Goku was the main dps, but in Z he went full assist.
@@collector8502if we wanna get technical, he kills Yakon by overfeeding before Buu
As much as it's played for humour, I have always been 100% with the guys on the "sex makes babies" scene. Goku learns something life-changing and his immediate instinct is to share it with his first friend.
Like, I have to assume this is a regular occurrence between the two of them, and that is adorable.
Hearing Taka wax poetic on the humor of existence sent me. "You don't exist. NOW YOU DO! That's funny as hell. You have NO say in the matter, now you have anxiety, that's PRICELESS."
God is indeed the original troll.
@@adams3560especially when you consider that there are thousands of them
Yeah, all he needs is a purple suit, and some face paint to be the joker
It is pretty funny honestly.
Lucifer, probably: "God you wasted a perfectly fine monkey, look at him he got anxiety"
“What do you call a group of humans?”
“An infestation.”
Gotta love Mr. Popo 🤣🤣🤣
From an environmentalist perspective he isn’t exactly wrong
The 1st time I heard the bone cracking of popo smiling I said out loud "that's hell freezing over".
The fact that you found a way to how a character like Goku would have children in the first place goes to show how brilliant the writing truly was.
The episode really justifies Dende being snarky, especially when you consider the face that Goku never even met Dende before and literally kidnapped a completed stranger.
OMG that WAS you!! I was watching Wrestlemania 32 and saw the sign and immediately was like "TEAM FOUR STAR!" but I always just assumed it was some random fan who just loved the DBZ Abridged videos as much as I do. That is freaking awesome!
Can we talk about the fact that Taka managed to angle himself into playing God twice, three times if you count godhood as 'perfection'?
This is honestly the best and the funniest DBZA episode. Congratulations, you guys have come so far from episode 1.
Hi Jeremy Hillary Boob. Haven't seen you in a while.
There should just be a Season 1 throwback shirt that says "Wait what?"
56 is the episode i always go to if I just have time for one bit of DBZA. Has everything I love from this series in spades.
The mishandling of Goku and Bulma's relationship is one of the biggest tragedies of dragonball. I mean they're obviously still something like family friends or whatever, but the both of them really should have more screen time together. I guess it'd be a bit weird hanging out with your friend/rival's wife but even that shouldn't be an excuse.
Counter point Bulma was his friend before she was Vegeta's wife.
@@matthewhughes7735 Counter, counterpoint. They are adults with their own families to take care of.
I would have loved more slice of life between Gohan,Bulma, and Krillen. Like you have your dad's best friends, which includes your second mentor sure not officially but Krillen definitely taught him some tricks heading to Namek.
Then you have one of the smartest people in the show. I imagine it might have been sweet.
I like to think the reason Goku finds Dende at all in this episode, of all the Namekians he could have kidnapped, is because Dende is the only one who had his potential unleashed by Super Kami Guru, so he would've been the strongest and easiest one to find out of all the Namekians.
Wtf I legit never noticed the Grandpa Gohan "BOO!" when the book hits Chi Chi.
"We're all here because someone said: Fancy that!"
I died!
I completely missed dende's whistle hurting himself until you pointed out
I initially thought the pain was from dende cringing at himself and piccolo just being empathetic cuz he’s just an observant guy
Taka: What was Zarbons first line?
Kaiser: ... Mm 😌
I love Lani right at the end saying "Ask Artemis!" The DAU has come a long way.
Honestly the Android 16 origin fan fiction is one of my favorite parts of rewatching this series because it always feels like such a huge emotional whiplash and is so well voice acted, props to everyone involved in making that.
“You had no say in the matter and now you have anxiety!” 😂 story of my life and quote of the year.
Vegeta never tried to stay a Super Saiyan because Goku did it first, and he didn’t want to be seen as copying someone who he wanted to surpass. Dude’s too proud at this point
Same reason I headcanoned why he avoided ssj3
@@darthteej1well he legit thinks it's a stupid form in canon lol
@@ihavenonamestilldonthaveon8970He’s not wrong, for a few reasons: First, the form takes a lot of ki to maintain, far more than the previous 2 did. To be fair, we never saw someone master it, so we don’t know what it would take to actually do so. Second, that long hair would be a big disadvantage in fighting up close, opponents could easily grab it and then yank the fighter around by it, and for all of Vegeta’s flaws, he’s a surprisingly good tactician in battle, at least when his ego doesn’t get in the way
I keep forgetting that Nappa is still alive in this abridged world. Something that I agree with and love
Not anymore
Nappa is like David Carradine: they died while having a stroke
He shouldn't have made that extra notch in the belt..
"Just talk to him" "He's just as bad as you are" Is such relatable bit of this episode for me...The amount of awkward conversations...
Kaiser nearly doing a spittake on that mouth comment was hilarious
21:20
"Strap yourself in for this cartoon character."
Underrated quote.
All I can do after the whole Grandpa Gohan joke-rant is just hear him going "oh, not the peanut butter"
"Every area of life is hilarious. Once second you don't exist, the next you do, thats funny as hell"
As an ace with anxiety, I'm adopting this mentality.
"I feel like a man dying of thirst watching another man drown" might just be my favorite Krillen line
I love how that Liiiitle piece of Fanfic took the Dad/Son-dynamic theming and just... Made it shine. Great use of rule-of-three.
The scene between Goku and Bulma this episode is one of my absolute favorite scenes in abridged, their friendship is so precious
15:58 I only just now realized "Go for ten" is a Goten pun. That's one of your more subtle ones
12:50 I used Kaiser’s voice for my Buu character in Xenoverse 2. He wore King Kai’s sunglasses and General Red suit. It worked surprisingly well.
Trunks catching Frieza's ball and the lion king playing on my friends phone was my first introduction to TFS, it was release day, its been a wild ride.
I like to think Piccolo actually lasted 3 days of outside time in the chamber without going crazy was because he's not 1 man alone, but 3
21:55 This is canon to me, and no one can convince me otherwise. After I saw this episode for the first time, I rewatched the episode when Goku invades the Red Ribbon compound, and there is a point where Goku fires a Kamehameha into a building. I’m confident that’s when it happened!
This episode is peak TFS honestly. It’s one of the episodes I consistently come back to
I remember watching this when I was younger and not knowing what Goku meant by "back door"
On a second rewatch of DBZA a few years later, I was laughing SO HARD OMG
Poor Chi-Chi.
16:20 Not to mention, even in the movie universe "Senzu Beans healed my nuts up Good!" "Thank God!"
The quote of " I feel like a man dying of thirst watching another man drown" still lives rent free in my mind.
Honestly this episode might be my personal favorite. Between the Cell cutaway gag, the sex joke filled main plot, and your addition of Gevo's death scene, this is one I always come back to, even outside of rewatches.
Not gonna lie, that "go for ten" line went over my head for years until you guys pointed it out just there 😅
I got it the first time I heard it. It was, and still is hilarious.
"I feel like a man dying of thirst watching another man drown" is one of my favourite lines in anything ever.
Trying to imagine MasakoX seeing the script for the first time.
That Android 16/Gevo "flashback" is one of the best scenes in this whole show.
Been seeing only a snippet of the Buu Bits, and finally caught the scene of Popo meeting Videl. And I have this head canon that either A; Popo has mellowed out over the years and finds it funny to tease Dende in someway, or B; He’s never heard the phrase “Are you allowed?” and just found her kinda amusing.
Are you allowed is a phrase?
Parunga wearing Shenlong like a scarf is legit one of my favorite lines in the series. Makes me laugh everytime i hear it.
19:35 *Vegeta exits the time chamber* "THERE YOU ARE KAKAROT! You know what I want from you! It starts with an F!"
I love that you brought up their cameos as CAC voices in Xenoverse, the first time I created a character it instantly used Taka’s voice as it was so fucking funny.
38:35 they have a great interaction in Super where Bulma tries to angry gag punch him but he dodges cause he’s watching out for Hit and she’s all “why did you dodge that” and I love the explanation that he lets her hit him and probably pretends to be hurt too
I have also in fact used Scott’s voice for my Freeza race character called Parfait XD Glad to know I’m not alone~
I legit wish we could get an equivalent of HFIL that's just the heroes hanging out. Get some fun interactions with Goku and Bulma and whatnot. And, as always, more Android 18 is always a good thing.
The 16 video file is my favorite moment from all of dbza. I just love adding to the lore and just having it make so much sense. Amazing work to those animators.
I like it, and it’s good fanfic because it actually adds to the canon. But it doesn’t really belong in an abridged series.
@@adams3560 By what basis? Worse off parodies like Yugioh that add nothing else? This, if anything, sets a better standard in writing quality that I'd love to see in more abridged series'.
@@IAmMightyMikeThe purpose of an abridged version is to tell a shorter, more condensed version of a story. Adding additional story goes against that.
It's funny, cause Yamcha actually posited that Goku was an alien waaaaaaaay back in some of the earlier episodes (at least in the dub). Foreshadowing, hindsight dub gag, still, funny as hell.
I love that added scene of 16 and Gero's son Gevo. That scene could be in the official anime and would only add more value not just to 16, but to Gero as well.
