World's Strongest Movie:
• DragonBall Z Abridged ...
I bet Roshi's island is outside the jurisdiction of any country so the trades he makes there are technically not illegal.
@@Marcelelias11He's on a list for sure at least
@@doctorsnakeeater1997You think Master Roshi is his real name?
@@Marcelelias11he can also blow up the moon with zero effort and is best buddies with everyone alive that could stop him, so really who’s gonna hold him accountable?
@@Marcelelias11For the drugs? Nah, it's a sovereign micro-nation.
The various acts of perversion probably qualify him, though.
@@Marcelelias11unless murder on international waters stuff like drug and alcohol consumption is legal
I love Goku's motivation isn't even like. He's not insulted that they passed over him, he's concerned that they won't get who they're looking for
I know! It’s kind of adorable! Like he’s imagining it’s some kid’s birthday party and they might be disappointed it’s not the real world’s strongest fighter, and he wouldn’t want that to happen. That’s how that line read comes across to me and I love it
Same energy as that kid misspelling *Santa* in his letter asking for a puppy, but the fallen angel still gets him a "puppy" anyway so the kid isn't disappointed.
It’s like if David Blaine found out that a child wanted to see “the best magician ever” at his birthday party and was like “welp, gotta right that wrong” 😂
And Masako's delivery on "There's been a mistake, I gotta fix this" sounds exactly like a dad explaining how he has to pull an extra shift cause someone borked up inventory or something
Idk, shouldn't give him the benefit of the doubt
Shenron in this movie has the energy of that lone employee that runs a radioshack who only ever has like the one group of college students who come in, hearing the door from the backroom and starting to tell them off before noticing it’s a whole new customer and excitedly going into customer service mode because it’s a break in the boredom that ISN’T those assholes
That sounded highly specific. Is everything okay? 😅
@@tonberry2670 Yes, my imagination just pinpointed exactly this comparison for some reason
But then that new customer is an old man trying who wants something fixed, but it's something easy like downloading the latest edition of javascript, which Shenron tries to explain but the old man is hearing none of that
@@CrownofMischiefA job that shouldn't be frustrating yet is because of the people around you lol
Honestly I'd totally believe that in the DBZA universe version of GT, Shenron had just gotten sick and tired of everyone's shit, so using a couple loopholes in some of the more recent wishes he set it up so they'd keep making a few more wishes so he could activate the Shadow Dragon clause in his contract and finally get a chance to kick the crap out of them. Then once he got that out of his system he just sorta felt like seeing how far away he could abandon Goku before he realized something was off.
"The size of a greyhound
THE BUS??!!"
That takes me out everytime omg
Are we not gonna talk about the fact that Goku decked Freezer in the schnoz, and when he finally meets Frieza, he said he's gonna deck him in the schnoz? That was a nice callback.
Goku punches lots of people... more likely coincidence
@@tsm688but then... Why him specifically?
@@TheGoddamnBacon Well, he did say he'd deck the next person he sees. Seems Freezer was just a case of wrong place at wrong time.
I like to imagine Wheelo hired Kochin like, a week before he discovered his cancer, so he didn't realize Kochin was an evil scientist until it was too late
Oh shit that's so funny and it makes a lot of sense.
What if Kochin turned evil over time? Realizing the Red Ribbon paid handsome amounts of money for evil inventions after Wheelo already ended up in his robo-suit, and then went psycho after being left wandering the world looking for the Dragon Balls.
Or Kochin was like an incompetent intern who thought being a scientist meant being evil and no one stopped him after Wheelo got sick.
The “didn’t realize Kochin was an evil scientist” gets worse/funnier when you realize Kochin made the ball pit, biomen, and modified Zapzap, Blubblub, and Burr all without him ever noticing.
Though, I’m just now realizing, whatever you have to say about Kochin’s morals you can’t deny he has loyalty. He spent 50 years finding the dragon balls (that a certain group kept taking) and tried his best to get a body for Wheelo.
The more I think about this parody the worst I feel for Wheelo and that one yellow monster
Goku putting the spirit bomb down is probably my favorite movie joke
One of the best in the series, because it’s something I never really thought about before
It has the same energy as the Cooler 2 gag where Goku plummets to Namek after winning the day, and when he lands, there's just a hellish nuclear explosion for no reason
Every movie seems to have its one great bit goku putting down the spirit bomb vegeta getting kicked in the dick 1000 times or goten getting erased lol
It's the "good work team!" that slays me
Honestly, I love Goku’s “there’s been a terrible mistake I have to fix this” thing, it doesn’t come across as prideful, it comes across to me like he’s legitimately trying to be helpful like he’s worried something they’re doing might go wrong or someone will be disappointed that the real strongest person in the world isn’t there
Yeah, if people dont know hes the world strongest then no one would come challenge him
Roshi's retired. It's a good move for Goku to want to go and fix things rather than letting his foster dad whose supposed to be retired need to work against his will.
Or that someone might be hurt if they’re mistaken for him.
i like the take of goku being loving to the point where he’s caring about someone mistakenly identifying the worlds strongest because he wants to ensure the true world’s strongest is there in case there was danger that only the worlds strongest could handle to save whatever could be threatening enough to need the worlds strongest around
@@exceedcharge1so it’s goku fault literally that the earth is in danger all the time
The great thing about Blub Blub dying (as terrible as it sounds) is it really shows how empathetic and kind Wheelo is in this version and by extension, how absolutely psychotically evil Kochin is. like how Kochin doesn't care that BlubBlub is dying, but Wheelo sounds so broken.
Exactly. Poor Wheelo is just so pitiable in this version
Agreed. It's deprarious on it's own, but it's also a wonderful character moment
Blub Blub dying was very upsetting to me the first time I watched this. It still does to a degree.
I feel so bad for him, it tugs the heartstrings
@@ericbright1742I got it!
22:24 Fun little anecdote: This actually happened to my fiancee while she was drunk one time, and she said she literally couldn't find her feet. Lani's follow up as Roshi was pretty much exactly her reaction.
Tapion is literally just Link, he straight up has an ocarina of time, and a master sword..
And a bitchin' tunic
I'm amused by this comment because it feels like you cant say ocarina without 'of time' at the end.
He’s Link dressed as Crono
@@domonikistheguy Try it, it's impossible.
Funnily enought Tapion came out 6 months before OoT
"Are the bodies not a clear indicator of how this is gonna go down?"
Such a good line. Roshi throwing hands is always entertaining
That line unironically goes hard for a series that is, in fact, a comedy parody.
@@kylebrady969 people constantly forget that dragon ball has been a parody all along. I guess it's hard to see from all that distance in the past.
Lani's delivery is AMAZING.
but he doesnt like to brag.
*sniff*
43:35 Lani had a literal "It doesn't bother me, it doesn't bother me.... It bothers me, it bothers me a lot, AND THAT ONE STILL GREEN!" moment
😂 I do agree with him, when I heard that line I always thought: “wait weren’t you already the electrocutioner or am I missing something?”
He's also 100% right lol
he really is green 😌
Oh are we talking about their flubs? Because I have one that drives me INSANE. In super android 13, vegeta totals 8 androids, BUT he was only counting the androids that trunks didn’t warn them about, which reached 7. This mistake came from the fact that after learning of cell, he says “DO I HEAR 5?” Because he just found out about a fourth, and was waiting for the fifth. But they added 3 to that number and got 8 instead of 7, and I drives me crazy that no one talks about it.
That line has always, ALWAYS sounded weird to me, because of this!
I wanna imagine that in honor of Wheelo’s death, the heroes revived his creations so Bulma could reprogram them to their original purposes.
Or they're in Movie HFIL. They're probably past the strength cutoff (assuming Raditz as the minimum), and we know from Cell that being a programmed evil artificial life form is no excuse.
@@somejerk5662Maybe they graduated already?
And because Kochin isn’t a robot in this version of the story, maybe he can be in HFIL?
@@BlusterTheBenevolent Sadly unlikely. Aside from his gun arm, he’s just an ordinary human so he wouldn’t be powerful enough to not be put in the cleansing machine.
There is a pig race in the original Dragon Ball anime. They run a hot spring and everyone is named after a type of tea.
Oh thats right, when they were looking for the basho sen
The chemistry between Kochin and Wheelo is seriously the best, the hardest I ever laughed.
>Wheelo breaks out
Wheelo: HOW LONG HAVE I HAD THIS?!
Kochin: Wait, you seriously didn’t know about the exoskeleton body I left for you? You really thought I would just leave you in a jar? What kind of monster do you think I-
>Wheelo breaks floor and Kochin falls
Kochin: FAIR ENOOOOOOOOOOUGH!!!!
You guys should try to do The Bojack movie as a Christmas special!
@@rickyhall1477 That or another Krillin movie pitch to Nappa like they did for Dead Zone.
For years i felt weird liking worlds strongest most, but now i lean into it, look tomar its you
This is my fave TFS movie. I wrestled with this and Broly (love Lani’s Vegeta) but what you said is why this edges
"now they're cruel and vicious and fight the elderly "
Possibly my favorite line of all DBZA
"evil science"
"No! Neutral science at worst!"
I just can’t get over the delivery on “and FIGHT the elderly!”
_"Neutral_ science! At _worst!"_ will always be my favorite line.
How do you put text in italics on here? I didn't know that was possible.
Also, totally agree: "neutral science" is a great line.
@@MrDabman123Put underscores right before & after the part you want to italicize. _Ding!_ Like that.
@@TechnicalJimActual, you are a God! Thank you!
@@TechnicalJimActual_yeeee_
@@MrDabman123 Additionally, if you put an asterisk (*) before and after, *you get bold.*
And if you put a dash there instead, -you strike right through.-
You can also *_-combine them.-_*
My favorite Fun Fact of this movie is Bluma's reaction to meeting Wheeler. The pun in Japanese is top tier.
She says _"Oh no!"_ which sounds like a shocked English phrase that is something a Japanese person might say, but also "no" is Japanese for brain. So she is actually saying "Oh brain!"
The pun works on so many levels.
Perfect
Kaiser: "He went to magical Kindergarten."
Taka: "Ohhh, okay yeah."
Normal conversation at TFS.
That's literally the plot to dragon ball...
honestly it'd be kinda fun to bring up the transformation school in Dragon Ball again.
@@sarafontanini7051 maybe in Daima, we can only hope
Of course Bulma is cool with Roshi's farm. She's in her mid 20's, rich, and absolutely down to party
She’s been 37 for ten years
I think mid 30s but sure, that definitely works either way 😂
@@twenty-fifth420she’s like 27 at the beginning of z so she’s like 29 max during this
@@cavemanbuddyolpalActually on the nose, she was born in Age 733 and this movie was probably in like 762. So 29. My bad!
I feel like Bulma helps run his business because she's bored and wants to. She could simply give him anything he needs, but running a business keeps Roshi going and sometimes he needs a hand.
Okay, I just have to say, Taka's line reads as Blub-Blub, are PHENOMENAL. Seriously, I know it's supposed to be funny, and it kind of is, but the combination of "I need a hug" and "It's so dark, and cold" and that _SOB_ ! Oh gods, that SOBBING! It's utterly amazing, and actually kind of makes me want to cry with empathy for poor Blub-Blub.
I have so much empathy for Blub Blub, poor guy just can't catch a break, but his death sobs have me dying every time
@@ItsAlvi101 It's a bit neighbour, they're still friends (leastaways as far as I can tell)
I felt so sad for Blub-Blub
@johandori7795 what did that dude say? Seems his comment got deleted 😂
@@riso9059 I honestly don't remember. Sadly you got the commenter with swiss cheese for a brain.
I definitely hear "I'M the Electrocutioner now" as if the Electrocutioner just died and he's taking the name. I get it.
LANI IS ABSOLUTELY CORRECT I HEAR IT TOO
the VA for him definitely put more inflection on the "I'm", and Nick pointing it out makes me hear it so much clearer
Lani raises a great point there.
This is some frozen pea commercial levels of pet-peevishness 😂
Agreed, that said it goes by so fast and it's the only line he get so it's not the biggest of deals.
World's Strongest was always my favorite of the movies. Simple, looks great, has that Maeda/Sato era goodness. Two notes: the ocean dub beam struggle fucking rules for how chaotic and intense the delivery and mixing gets, even with the "kay o ken." Also sad that in your version we didn't get the really cool hand flip Piccolo does into Goku's chin. Always thought that was cool.
My favourite version has to be the Big Green dub.
Goku’s line to Chichi is just peak 😂
“As long as he does his karate exercises he can do what he wants.”
And of course the terrible Wheelo voice acting where it sounds like he’s drunk the whole time
“Tell me…. Who is the strongest maaaaan”
Honestly I don't know why, but that "why is it the size of a Greyhound?" "THE BUS!?" is my favourite thing in this movie.
Oolong comes from Octagon village which is an entire village of pigmen in Dragonball. It’s part of the whole Chichi’s wedding dress episodes.
yeah but thats filler. so in anime yes but in the manga oolong is the only pig man
@@michaelbucher9001
Oolong: Last of the Pig Men
@warlordofbritannia thats why hes the legendary super swine
@@michaelbucher9001
DAS SWEIN!
I thought he was a shapeshifter?
Roshi getting to be a badass one last time is damn cool, especially the line, "Are the bodies not a clear indication of how this is gonna go down?"
This movie really is the peak of TFS: the writing, the editing, the new animation, the complete change of the plot for the better.
To bear fair, they didn't have to change the plot by that much. The only true deviation from the plot was making Wheelo sympathetic while his partner is the purest form of the Mad Scientist archetype that keeps making Wheelo's life miserable.
@@StarforceOnAirStill, the new context changes everything. In what other movie could you feel bad for the death of a random sidekick?
I honestly agree with Lani on the delivery of the "I'm the Electrocutioner now!" line. He's empahsizing the "I'm " which makes it sound like he's stolen/taken the name from someone else.
Same. I always assumed he was announcing himself, as opposed to correcting the name
Meh, I always heard it as a neutral correction: he just stating that he’s not Zap, he’s The Electrocutioner. It’s not like he’s upset at having to correct Freezer, he’s just stating the change.
Right, as opposed to emphasizing "Electrocutioner", showing he's fullheartedly accepted his change in name and occupation.
Then electrocutionate him! I don’t give a (bleep)!
“I’M the captain now” energy
Oh my God. I never noticed until now. When Blub Blub was sobbing, they actually animated a puddle of his tears on the floor. So awesome!!!
I wouldn't say awesome is the right word, but it was a nice touch
It turned a Dark sad joke to Popo Sad joke, and it is both awesome and disturbing
“A kame and a hame and a send him home to mommy!” Hands down my favourite Roshi line and borderline my favourite line in all of DBZA, you guys freaking nailed it!
Kochin takes 50 years to gather the dragon balls
Lani:"Kochin is very efficent"
Presumably every time they did get used by someone else, he had to begin his work tracking them down all over again.
@@squiddler7731Exactly
To be fair he did it with no Dragon Radar, that's a fair amount of time to find seven magic balls scattered over the face of the planet. For all we know some of them were in different countries.
@@squiddler7731gotta wait a year each time they are used too just so they aren't inert...
@The_AuraMaster tbf Red Ribbon had a radar but it wasn't as effective as bulmas
Since he mentioned Red Ribbon it's safe to assume he had access to their radar and sent Siba- biomen to get them
The added off-screen humor (Yamcha 'sploding during Gohan's memory, Goku dropping the spirit bomb, etc) is just the funniest.
I remember a panel of theirs and a fan asked them when they were going to do World's Strongest. Lani immediately responds with "When we hit 2 million subscribers, Go get your friends!"
1:01:20
The absolutely poetry of Wheelo crying about how beautiful the Earth is and how he'll never see it with his own eyes ever again and Goku calling upon the energy of the Earth to kill him with it.
"You're right... I should check!" Is my favourite goddamn line in this movie, it is so unbelievably dark and hilarious and delivered perfectly!
I still feel sad for Blub Blub. He just wanted a hug.
I like to imagine he has like regeneration abilities, and was left intact enough to make a full recovery
And combat!
@@HunhowsShadowStalkernoooo...
And he has a crippling fear of death
I felt so bad cackling at his cries. So unnecessarily dark it becomes funny.
I'm glad that Tomar got to play a character similar to himself in this DBZA movie. It's almost like an autobiography.
I heard he scattered 7 Tomar Emeralds across Burbank California.
I heard he offered to give the location of the 7 Tomar Emeralds to TFS to get this role.@@redfalconfox
*T h e W h e e l o f u n k o i s b i g g e r t h a n t h e r e s t*
Seeing Tomar in other material always gives me war flashbacks.
@@TubbzYTwatch Hunter x Hunter or Jojo dubbed
Holy shit Taka pulled out a perfect impression of Goku in the Big Green Dub. Just threw it out their with no audio reference.
Love how the comparison was put right after. And yes, spot on.
22:55 "There are *SIX* of Biomen, and only *ONE* of Turtle!" God, I love Izzy's delivery in this!
I am 999 years old. I don’t give a fuck
Goku setting down the Spirit Bomb and it cutting to him just fuckin SPLAYED OUT is genuinely one of my favorite gags from all of DBZA and will forever send me into a laughing fit
That yamcha bit gets me every time
Gets Yamcha every time too
@@bloodanddajugsoh you…
@@bloodanddajugsGood one
Just realized Yamcha is left dead in this movie.
The Yamcha bit doesn’t always get me, but the CALLBACK to the Yamcha bit always has me rolling
I’m so happy Kirito from Kirito abridged got to voice the most important characters in all of Dragon Ball. Izzy is great!
Kirito abridged? Sao abridged right?
@@MrShazaamable it’s a joke Izzy and co. Have over there.
Yeah, Kirito Emiya is absolutely not a saibaimen
"Every arc they reset the power levels"
That actually would make more sense
Like Pikachu, every time they go to a new region
Understandable, I think. Dragon Ball's power scaling escalated _absurdly_ fast from King Piccolo on, which was only possible because pre-King-Piccolo characters were only _mildly_ superhuman. (Except that one time Master Roshi blew up the moon.) When planet-throwing attacks are slung around by the mooks who Krillin beats up to make you think it's impressive when the jobbers beat up Krillin, there's no way you can escalate like that again.
I don't think Super handled its own power scaling very well, but I recognize the problem they were trying to solve.
It's so hilarious that Gohan says "no one has died", but Yamcha did and he saw it himself.
It's really ironic that even the creators forgot to mention him.
Maybe Yamcha developed somewhat of an immunity to suicide attacks; he's the only one who would've survived Cell.
Wait, can’t you hear Yamcha groaning? Like, wasn’t that him at 16:00? I thought he was just extremely hurt, not actually dead.
Nah Super's shown that Yamcha's gotten strong enough to survive doing the poser.
I like that, no matter what, even the weakling Yamcha can tank godly hits.
@@yukaiyami I think that was Lani.
I love how he jokes about getting to 2M but they JUST got 10% there on Bento; congrats bois!
I noticed. The timing is pretty neat.
I love that, I checked and you are the first one I saw commenting on this.
ohey
Ngl i thought that was the joke
1:00:25 god, personally i WISHED kid gohan continued to have the power pole in DBZ. just look of him having piccolo's cloak with the power is so sick.
I mean that would have been the direction for his character. Match his martial arts and studious sides and have him be a fighter who relies more on magical items and unique techniques to keep the Earth safe, instead of just raw power. That'd been fun to watch.
@@Yodah97facts
@@Yodah97he should be smart enough to use tools aka weapons more than just his body
Well, there’s also Xeno Goku…
@@BlusterTheBenevolent i absolutely love xeno goku's design and that he carries around his power pole. such an underrated design, I wish there was more love for him.
"Are the bodies not a clear indicator of how this is gonna go down?" is one of my favorite DBZA lines - top five. I'm also really glad y'all kept M924 for the Willow showdown.
28:35
Goku: so that “milk” I was delivering wasn’t milk…
Roshi: Why do you think there was no milk swishing sound in the bottles?
Goku: it sounded like paper though
Roshi: Exactly
47:38 I don't know why but this Greyhound bit is maybe my favorite joke in the movie. it just tickles me in a way I wasn't expecting, the delivery is so good
Ironically, setting Roshi's age aside, his body would be perfect for a scientist since Roshi can't die of old age.
Ya, that's a way better reason to want that body. Infinite lifespan to have all the time he needs to research and invent. Plus, Wheelo is an old man, and assuming it goes by the realistic concept that the voice comes from the body not the soul/brain, then Roshi's voice would sound the least strange for Wheelo to hear when talking.
Oh hey that's a fun an world building question. What's keeping Roshi from aging? Because if it's his mastery over ki control, that goes away if you take over his body. It's not like he asked the dragon balls for eternal life or anything, right?
@@Yodah97 Was the phoenix joke in the manga or was it anime filler? I forget.
@@Yodah97 so it's a bit ambiguous, but Turtle mentions a medicine/elixir of immortality in the original manga, but doesn't seem certain and Roshi doesn't confirm or deny it, however later on in the Piccolo Daimao arc he mentions the water of immortality not existing to Tenshinhan (this is literal translation from the manga, as Viz translates them as immortality elixir and elixir of immortality respectively). Ultimately, Roshi's agelessness is never truly explained, though Super once tried their hand with it as well with the Paradise Herb, though this was anime-only.
@@FightingFoodonsFanFortunately we know it does in TFS’ version, as shown with Goku and Ginyu.
"Neutral science! At worst!" Is one of the best exchanges you guys have ever written.
Also, "kame-and a hame- and a send em home to mommy" of all of Roshi's just truly amazing lines, is one of the best.
Honestly, one of my favorite lines in this movie is Goku saying, “And by someone, I mean the Earth!”
Because just moments ago Wheelo was appreciating the beauty of planet Earth and lamenting never being able to witness it ever again. He truly longs for it, only for Goku to literally use the Earth to kill him.
Megami33's line reading of "I'm chained here" is great
40:04 is easily my favorite exchange of dialogue in this entire movie. The delivery is just too perfect.
I am 95% convinced that the only reason Piccolo has a house in Super Hero is bc of you guys constantly pointing out how he is homeless in Abridged.
Agreed. Also that shot of Kami and Nail during the ToP.
Accepted headcanon
@@EvanSol919 As well as the Popo threatening Vegeta after breaking the hyperbolic time chamber 😁
And Goku being a literally man child
no that's definitely not the case. They just needed somewhere for him to chill out and store his collection of plushies so of course they'll show his house. Plus it's a neat way to reference Namek architecture
Goku's voice turning into Gohan's when his crotch is getting frozen is the single most underappreciated joke in this entire series. If forget about it every time I watch this movie, but it makes me laugh every single time. Absolutely brilliant.
It’s been an absolute pleasure to be viewing these amazing peoples content for 15 years

Amen to that! Can’t believe I have been watching them for half my life. It’s been one hell of a ride

I'm very disappointed this exchange didn't take place:
Kaiser: Do you know why Wheelo is a giant brain instead of a normal sized one?
Lani: Uh, no?
Kaiser: It's because originally the jar didn't contain just his brain but ALL his vital organs.
Kaiser: ALL OF THEM??
It's clear why someone like Lani was able to keep this group alive as long as he did.
I think the meta-joke of Oolong's wish went over a lot of people's heads: He's a literal 'fascist pig'.
I thought it was a reference to the Khmer Rouge because he usually wears one of those Mao Era unisex jumpsuits.
The Red Star is pretty obvious, but no matter how worse that reputation should be, can't criticize that ideology.
You mean it wasn't Animal Farm?
@@LycanFerretCould be both.
@@battlesheep2552In Toriyama's vision yeah probably. But TFS did not.
The Mao outfit was used because in OG Dragomball Oolong actually wore it a number of times, that's not photo-shopped on
The seting the spirit bomb down is probably the funniest joke in all of DBZA I love it so much.
Making Wheelo into a sweet old man has to be the funniest DBZA script change of all, if you ask me.
Goku trying to set down the Spirit Bomb is seriously the funniest thing in the movie in a series of really funny moments.
Love Word's Strongest, abridged or otherwise. 🥰
"I don't know if Wheelo's mech design is Toriyama."
It looks almost exactly like one of the later Lavos forms that Toriyama designed, Kaiser.
And Tapion looks even more like Crono, but Toriyama didn't design him. Apparently he asked his name to be changed, because Tapioka was too obvious a pun.
I figured out why Kochin took 50 years to find the Dragon Balls: Every time he finds the Dragon Balls, someone steals them from him.
He gets a few: Pilaf gang
He gets a few: Red Ribbon
He gets a few: King Piccolo
He gets a few: Garlic Jr.
He gets a few: Resurrect Goku
So basically, it is because the Z fighters are spending time defending the Dragon Balls from those who would otherwise use them and also defending Earth from progressively higher stakes that Dr. Kochin was able to get the Dragon Balls?
@@iantaakalla8180 It's because of that that it took him 50 years.
The downtime after rezzing Goku is how he was able to get them.
I like the implication that Yamcha or Chiaotzu or someone mugged Kochin for his balls.
The entire concept of medicine is a pretty big W for science.
Medicine definitely saved incomparably more lives than the atom bomb has killed.
And transport‚ and housing‚ and industrial agriculture.
And internet and telecommunications. I mean those are not absolutely 100% positive‚ but they still make everyone's life easier on a daily basis.
Yeah, penicillin alone outweighs all the damage the other things did a thousandfold
@@Dr.CaveCurinas Vaccines and the fact that we basically eradicated smallpox, had eradicated measles, would be able to quickly cure people suffering and dying from tuberculosis, and we survived more than one global pandemic are AMAZING wins for science! I could say a lot more, but we could start a thread here.
"Sterilization treatments might want to weigh in."
No matter what you say positively about science, Kochin will find a negative.
Oh my god I never noticed that Blub-Blub cries out a puddle while facedown before! How the fuck does that scene just get more and more awfully sad?
I know right, somehow I feel worse for him every time I watch this version 😢
Right?! They didn't even mention it, I just never noticed until just now, and this is my most rewatched DBZA movie!
I *JUST* realized that Kochin was thinking of baking because he was at Roshi’s island when they were baking brownies. Whether intentional or not, I *LOVE* that.
“And point… proven!” has the same energy as “horse…eaten!” Like father like son!
I'd honestly love to watch a short of just Roshi and Wheelo high on the couch trying to figure out what to watch.
I swear Prospector Roshi is one of the most underrated voices, it's so perfect and I'm glad this movie showed so much of him.

I'm gonna come out to bat for Super Android 13 that it's one of the few movie villains that can get away with being the same as the series villain. The Androids all have abilities common to Cell, so it almost feels like Gero experimented with each one and eventually combined everything he'd learned to make Cell and later Android 21.
Am I the only one who actually prefers the commentary vids to just the plain vids? I like to listen to the behind the scenes and hear the genuine friendship and effort that went into this.
The part with Glub Glub needing a hug is why I've only ever seen this movie once. It makes me so sad! Someone give him that hug!!!
As someone said in another comment chain, a year later the gang could have resurrected him and Bulma and Wheelo could have restored him to his original version.
@@kryptonianguest1903 Thank you. I was too distraught to think about that. You have given me a hopeful headcanon
This dub’s voice for Goku is the reason that Masako’s Goku always worked for me. This was always my favorite of the movies.
"A Kame and a Hame and a send em home to mommy!" followed by the Turtle School Kamehameha is one of my favorite scenes lol
How hard would it be to get every VA to come on and watch the last few episodes? We want to give them love too!
42:40 - So I'm not the only one hearing this and thinking... hah... doesn't sound right! THANK YOU LANI!
"He was supposed to spread love, and hugs to children"
I want to hug them all! best henchmen ever!
I love Izzy as an abridged VA especially main man Kirito but the bio men hits a very specific niche that makes my brain happy
😂 it's very good, i love the way they talk
The whole Wheelo and Kochin dynamic is perfect! I've never laughed nor felt as bad watching DBZA. 10/10, this is my favorite DBZA movie.
To this day I tear up a little whenever Blub-Blub starts crying. He must’ve been such a sweet, gentle boy before this.
59:00 There is a great series called The Fixer by Andrew Vallencourt. It delves deep into what it would be like to be a cyborg without your senses, and how it would drive a normal person insane. I love the series and recommend it to anyone who enjoys futuristic sci-fi fiction.
This is probably also my favorite DBZA movie, even if the "crippling fear of death" is too real. Love the dynamic between Kochin and Wheelo.
24:09 I love how Lani and Taka both get upset at Kaiser pausing before Roshi finished his line.
Even he gets upset at himself
Lani, as a perfectionist, I GET WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT FOR THE ELECTOCUTIONER LINE DELIVERY
I do believe this movie is definitely one of the best projects TeamFourStar has produced. Editing, vocal work, writing and the original animation are razor sharp. I do agree with Lani on the "Electrocutioner" delivery. It's not a joke breaking issue, but for me personally it took several watches before I caught the meaning. With Lani's suggestion on the modified emphasis in the delivery, I'd have understood the joke immediately. With that said, I've come back to this video more than any other movie. Fantastic work.
45:13 is genuinely one of the saddest things y'all ever made in DBZA and it still makes me laugh
I definitely heard the Electrocutioner line the way Lani did when I first watched this
There is very clear emphasis on the “I’m”
I feel like we walked into a fight that was unresolved during the "I'm the Elecutioner now" bit lmao
OML! At 9:54 you hear an audible crack as Curtis turns his neck, but it was just Scott cracking his fingers / knuckles. That timing was SO PERFECTLY UNSETTLING. Also, damn loud. Wooh. Good crack. Glad Curtis is ok.
...also, 17:31 why is the file name >>Movie Title
Wheelo and his realization that he "had" a body somewhat makes me laugh every time. Especially when he crushes the floor from underneath kochin.
The Greyhound bit is one of my absolute favourite jokes; the delivery on "The BUS!?" is so fantastic.
Also, cool about Wheelo's VA being Megatron. The WFC series is... Well, it exists, but I found that Megatron was by far the best part of it. I loved the much more pensive feel that incarnation of the character had. Regardless of how the show was received, that's a pretty big character to play. Good for him.
Ironically, you guys did get 200,000 subscribers today so that's still a cool milestone for this channel.
45:25 Oh my god I just finally after all these years noticed the crying there lol. TFS subtle visual gags never cease to make me laugh.
how can you be this far? Vid isnt even out for more than 25 min

@@theSeljack I'm just fast (I skipped through the video to make a comment really quickly)
Don't worry Lanni I hear it. "I'M the electricutioner now!" vs the "I'm THE electricutioner now!" or even "I'm the ELECTRICUTIONER now!" Honestly you and anime in general he opened my ears to the way someone says something and how different it can make it. The inflection, the word you emphasize, and the intensity of different words. Seriously thank you for showing my ears a new world.
58:36 Wheelo’s line here makes me think of Mr. Freeze in Batman TAS for the lines of “I’d trade a thousand of my days” and “I’d killed for that.”
I'm going to be completely honest, I cried when Blub Blub died after he siad "I need a hug", he deserved better.
