100% agree. When Trunks found his time machine that has been there for years and Gohan finding the old insect shell...this was turning out being a sci-fi horror series.
I was a teenager the first time I watched Cell's debut, and it was utterly horrifying to witness. I was in my 10th grade class and cannot stop thinking "what if Cell appears and starts to absorb my classmates?" LMAO.
Anything Cell related from his birth to how he became perfect was terrifying in my book. And despite that he’s still my all time favorite anime villain.
I always wished that we got a fight a Cell still being on all 4s fighting Trunks from his future and Piccolo. No talking, just it's wings making big noises and having the recon bugs fuse into him to. Then after sucking Piccolos arm, he'd stand up and start talking but still make distant insect noises
When Buu turns the last of the main cast into chocolate one by one, while Piccolo and Gotenks are stuck in the time chamber is still one of the most haunting scenes I’ve seen in dragon ball
Seeing Krillin get blown up by Frieza had me shook. Seeing him helpless and asking for help before exploding was disturbing to me. Same with getting impaled by Frieza’s second form and Frieza’s sadistic nature on full display.
Lol that’s not scarier than Cell literally absorbing that man in the suit while we watched his body literally dissolve and melt. Android 17 getting absorbed was NOTHING compared to that 😂
@@shooteveryday6341 nah bro did you see the pleasure that he took in absorbing #17 and the horror of everybody that was present... Watching him struggle as he was inside the tail slowly being pulled through it...ugh
@@lamoynebillups3665 lol I get why you’re saying that! but bruuuh 17 is an android! 😂 atleast he was just a machine! And Cell could spit him and 18 out! Us humans don’t have any escape! We just dissolve into his food! In real life that’s terrifying!
The Cell saga was scary af to me as a kid when Cell would consume all the people... Seeing all the clothes on the ground afterwards use to chill my spine
It's funny in hindsight, at least in terms of behind the scenes stuff. DBZ had blood edited out of its initial Western TV release, yet they kept Cell's absorption unchanged, which is far more confronting than a bit of blood. I'm both grateful and horrified. lol
Freeza’s 3rd transformation was literally inspired by the Xenomorph from the ‘Alien’ film franchise. Freeza’s battle power in his 3rd form was 2,500,000.
Another thing about Cell’s reveal was how all the Z fighters were sensing Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Frieza, and King Cold at Gingertown. I remember just being so confused and freaked out about what was happening. And throw in Kami’s ominous demeanor before he fuses with Piccolo. A disturbing few episodes, and actually was my introduction to DBZ. It’s no wonder I became obsessed.
A scene that hits differently now is when the news are broadcasting about imperfect Cell live. There’s a few moments where the characters are watching the broadcast but the audience doesn’t see what the characters are seeing. Instead, we hear a lot of gunshots and what we assume are people dying. Considering that, especially in the 2010s, we have live streams of mass shootings as they’re unfolding, the DBZ scenes mentioned above would feel a little too familiar.
Zamasu. The one Dragon Ball villain who won. It was not the way he intended, but it still resulted in the destruction of all mortal life. It literally took Zeno destroying Future Trunks's timeline to stop him from spreading out into all reality.
The first time I actually felt adrenaline shoot through my veins..... I said how in the f@#* are the going to win now? And I love Vegeta more than I like Goku. They trained hard and pushed and still lost. I wanted to jump in and do something! Lol thank God for that button!
The thing I love about this countdown is that it gives some incentive to watch SOME of the filler episodes, as some of the show’s creepiest moments are spawned by them. This is definitely a solid list overall, and if I had to add an honorable mention it would be the moment Garlic Jr. unleashes the Black Water Mist upon Earth in the Garlic Jr. Saga. Though it’s a much maligned saga that’s since been glossed over, I do like that moment in particular as it showed a DBZ villain actually unleashing the essence of absolute evil upon the world. Seeing the twisted, evil expressions on the faces of the heroes is quite chilling, and it showed that Garlic Jr. and his henchmen could be a rather formidable threat thanks to his immortality and knowledge of dark powers.

The assassination of Krilin in the first Dragon Ball should’ve been on this list. The monster Tambourine killed many of the strongest fighters and knocked out Goku. Those were some scary times in the dragon ball franchise.
The sad irony of Chi Chi in Gohan's dream going into the Hyperbolic Time Chamber and saying Gohan has been gone too long when barely a day would've gone by for her is... that would totally be in character for Chi Chi and is THE most realistic part of Gohan's nightmare 😮💨 I hate what they did to Chi Chi in Z. I really do. Though Super Chi Chi is somehow far worse.
Is Super Chi-Chi worse? In Z, they had her constantly nagging Goku and Gohan, even and especially during world-threatening events; if they stopped training, then studying for college would mean squat with the world blown up. I suppose the few times Chi-Chi wasn't nagging Goku was during his health crisis because of the heart disease. But thanks to Chi-Chi, Gohan went from one of the strongest characters back into the biggest wimp again. I suppose the one cool thing she does in Z is slap Super Buu, but for that, she gets turned into an egg and killed; no good deed goes unpunished. Anyway... What does she do in Super? Pester Goku to work on the farm sometimes, and criticise his compulsive combat, but seems to mostly acquiesce to his habits. Kind of funny considering her DB origins, where she was a wild child who lived in the wilderness and enjoyed fighting, too. Although, a not so good thing was that she made Goku agree to marriage even though he didn't understand what it was, yet I guessed that detail worked out in the end. Maybe becoming a mother changed her? Since she went from a badass into a control freak with obsessions on "normalcy."
Dragon Ball series using just 3% realism would become probably the most horrific but absolutely amazingly terrorizing horror shonen to man. Android Saga / Future Trunk's timeline would pretty much look identical to the Terminator future timeline, just without Skynet and two angsty spoiled Cyborg Teens / prissy and a angsty god with a nasty ego. Cell Saga... Just Imagine entering a city and all that is left is just mucus oozing flesh bags wrapped in clothes thrown about the entire city rotting in the sun. A city wide version of The Thing with none of the thing's weaknesses. Saiyan and Cell Saga: The Saibamen & Cell Jr.s would be simply Mars Attacks on a smaller scale number wise. Giant Piccolo, Great Ape Kid Goku/Gohan and Vegeta... King Kong that is no longer lumbering cause of size and weight, but has the mobile superiority of a normal sized Chimp / Gorilla with laser breath while retaining peak physical strength and mind. Krillin's death by Frieza would probably be equal to the heads from Scanners. Not to include the city and empty regional landscapes being literally reshaped by physical and energy attacks on a global scale would be 2012 level of destruction every fight. DBS Broly turned an entire artic cap into a molten continent. DBS Superhero Cell Max cause a near extinction level explosion and globe altering creator behind. All this happening every month to every other year. How many times have the Dragonballs been used as an MIB Neuralizer on the planet's population, just so they don't question the insanely changing environment that happens every fight, be it minor sparing in the ocean that have caused tsunamis to just a simple power up causing almost a 7.0 earthquake hundreds of miles away...
Cell treating civilians as human shot glasses and Buu.. uhh.. how do I word this.. jumping into that guys mouth and exploding him? Both haunted me growing up. The Pendulum Room Saiyans were intense too!
Goku nightmare about android 17 and 18 still sticks with me today 😮😮 same when goku is having that nightmare about fighting 19 and 20 while suffering from the heart disease 😮😮
Im surprised universe 9’s erasure isn’t on the list. That was the moment when everyone realized that the Zenos and the Grand Priest weren’t bluffing about the losing universes being erased
Brolys tranformation in movie 8 his screams alongside his body literally splitting apart his jaw dislocating and his body glowing still haunts me to this day
Just imagine hearing on the news that a bunch of deflated human corpes was what was left of the city before hearing the news speaker also get drained. Nobody knowing wtf is going on not even the heroes you expect to pop up and save your planet as usual. Cell's introduction was terrifying and a masterpiece. What also made me a bit more terrified was how SSJ2 Gohan was shown. Bro's personality shifted into something that made me scared of saiyans in general and even feared for cell.
Cell was my favorite. Nightmare becoming reality. Then when he became 'perfect', he was so.. regal. Almost dignified. So to see him lose control against Gohan was really enticing.
These are definitely the scariest moments in all few Dragon Ball anime shows that are still meant for millions of people between the ages of 12 and 66.
My favorite Dragon Ball sagas are The Android + Imperfect Cell Sagas from Z, and the goku black saga from Super. Absolutely the best written sagas and both have really amazing twists and mysteries throughout. Love them for that.
A lot of those are definitely terrifying no doubt. I have to say the most for me is when Super Buu uses the human extinction attack. Always tough to watch the helplessness in that one
Cell's introduction was memorable and terrifying to watch as a kid watching Toonami in the year 2000-2001. Him absorbing that one dude freaked me out for the first time. That was the first time DBZ scared me that one scene because that straight-up went to horror film territory.
Dark DragonBall moments: When Kid Goku found Krillin killed by Tamborine, When Piccolo blew a hole through Goku's shoulder and elbowed him Dark DBZ moments: Super Buu's human extinction attack, Videl's savage beating by Spopovovich, Imperfect Cell absorbing that rich guy, Dr.Gero stabbing a hand through Yamcha, Android 19 beating up Goku whose suffering from the heart virus, Cell absorbing Android 18, Future Gohan being killed by the Androids, Android 18 breaking Vegeta's arm, Majin Vegeta killing the tournament audience to goad Goku into fighting him, Super Buu physically and psychologically toying with Gohan during their fight, Frieza killing Vegeta on Namek, Recoome breaking Gohan's neck on Namek
An odd attention to realism in Dragon Ball was that they refrigerate the dead bodies to prevent decay, before they could be revived by a wish. This aspect was abandoned later on; I don't know if it was because the Dragon Balls became more effective, or the writer merely forgot.
Not necessarily "scary" but one of the hardest scenes for me to watch was the fight between Videl and Spopovich. It was one of the most brutal beatdowns in the series and though in the end, Spopovich got what he deserved, it was still soooo cringe inducing and hard to watch. I really wanted Gohan to get revenge on him but Babidi beat him to it
As a massive Dragonball Fan: Here’s my top 10 most terrifying moments: 10: King Piccolo curb stomps Goku… King Piccolo beating Goku clean with no tricks, help, henchmen etc just showed LEVELS 9: Androids curbstomping the Z Fighters…. Android 18 and 17 one shotting the Earthlings 2 shotting Trunks and humiliating Vegeta means we KNOW even if Goku didn’t have the heart virus and was 100% fresh, he would lose BADLY to them 8: Merged Zamasu being a complete monster… We’ve seen Fusion before but NOT this powerful…. He NEVER moved in the entireity against Goku Vegeta and Trunks during their fight…. 7: Moro absorbing Merus’ power and having angel abilities 6:Nappa cutting off Tien’s arm after 2 attacks…. We KNEW they were powerful… We KNEW they were beasts but disarming him was scary as hell! 5: Recomme Breaking Gohan’s neck 4: Black Freiza one shotting Ultra Ego Vegeta AND Mastered Ultra Instinct Goku at the same time… Considering Mastered Ultra Instinct shouldn’t be hit and Ultra Ego is a form which is designed to take hits…. Black Freiza is an absolute monster! 3: Human Extinction Attack 2: Buu destroying the earth and Goku being too anxious to use instant translocation.. 1: The entire Cell Arc… Imperfect Cell was terrifying intelligent and creepy… The way he lowered his power level until he saw the androids and his tactics was so smart…. Perfect Cell 3 shotting Super Vegeta and then making future trunks quit was insane… but then we got 10 days until the Cell Games… We thought Goku pushed the SSJ Form to his limit and then Cell makes Goku QUIT!!!! We was all in astonishment and shock… Then Goku says he will pick his next person, Cell then LIKKLEMANS Trunks Vegeta and Piccolo by saying if you pick them you’re wasting my time 😂😂😂😂
One scene from GT that was really terrifying was after Goten beat that buff guy that was controlled by baby. Everyone was clapping then seconds later, one of the bystanders began to feel sick then he started talking like baby. That really messed me up as a kid
One scene from GT that was really terrifying was after Goten beat that buff guy that was controlled by baby. Everyone was clapping then seconds later, one of the bystanders began to feel sick then he started talking like baby. Then he came out of his body. That really messed me up as a kid.
Buu going inside that hunter blowing him up😂 Cell eating 17 and 18 gave me nightmares early 90's. I was not allowed to wat that serie when aged 6. Then the 2000's cam3😂
Super Buu: Do you like eggs? *Turns Chi-Chi into an egg and stomps on her* Also, speaking of Buu, lot of horrifying moments around him, too. Fat Buu murders cities by turning the people into candy and eating them. Then, he builds a house out of the magical transformed bodies of other people - they may be conscious as they are molded into bricks. Super Buu's planetary extinction attack Super Buu escapes imprisonment in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, transforms all of the supporting cast on the Lookout into candy and eats them, including toddler Maron. Super Buu absorbs Gotenks, Piccolo, and later Gohan. Kid Buu blows up the Earth, and then several more planets in pursuit of Goku and Vegeta
Another terrifying Zamasu moment was in Goku Black's rant about his origin: an alternate version of Chi-Chi and Goten were murdered by Zamasu, after he stole Goku's body. Plus, that version of Goku was trapped in Zamasu's old body, also helpless to the cruel god's attacks.
Frezia's third from is supposed to refrence the xenomorphs, as Akia Tymoryia liked the Aliens franchise, and had to make Freiza turn into such a monster.
In both Goku and Gohan's nightmares the only flaw I saw with them was that Goku wouldn't have known what 17 and 18 looked like since he'd been out of commission since his fight with 19. Similarly, Gohan had never seen Cell (other than the chrysalis he found with Trunks by Cell's Time Machine). Also, there's a part right before evil Buu appears where good Buu is begging Mr. satan to leave for his own safety. He does the echoing "GO NOWWWW!" line but then Mr. Satan tries to turn back for Buu, when Buu lets out this wild, animalistic "GOOOOOOOO!!!!!" that just really displayed how scared and how much pain Buu was in. The voice actor for Buu did an amazing job with that and none of the other re-dubs including Kai ever touched on that again.
Some terrifying twists in Super that I'd consider terrifying in a bad way: - Gods of Destruction are a thing - Beerus ordered Frieza to destroy Planet Vegeta; thereby undermining one of the largest acts of evil committed by the Evil Emperor. There is dialogue noting he would have "done it anyway," but creating any external force disrupts one of the most effectively villainous plot threads of the series. - Beerus never revealing his hand in their planet's destruction to the two survivors (there are technically three,but the ones one Earth) - Gohan had become so weak that Ginyu, despite being a frog for 20 years, could easily kick his ass - The actual supreme being of all reality is a sociopath child creature - Future Trunks and Future Mai have to live as duplicate refugees in an alternate reality with people they know who aren't the people they know, all because instead of simply erasing Zamasu, Future Zeno erased that entire universe - The final arc is genuinely just a tournament arc - In Super Hero, the failed Gotenks fusion serves more purpose than either Goten or Trunks had throughout the duration of Super
does anyone find it wierd that gohan knew what cell's perfect form looked like even though he was in the time chamber during when cell achieved his perfect form?

How the hell do you skip over Buu flying into a man's mouth making him explode?
Anything Cell related from his birth to how he became perfect was terrifying in my book. And despite that he’s still my all time favorite anime villain.
I second this
I always wished that we got a fight a Cell still being on all 4s fighting Trunks from his future and Piccolo. No talking, just it's wings making big noises and having the recon bugs fuse into him to. Then after sucking Piccolos arm, he'd stand up and start talking but still make distant insect noises
Super Saiyan levels being devalued is pretty terrifying.
When Buu turns the last of the main cast into chocolate one by one, while Piccolo and Gotenks are stuck in the time chamber is still one of the most haunting scenes I’ve seen in dragon ball
Agreed. That's literally my least favorite scene in all of dragonball
@@Zetchr0n0I fail to understand how that scene is terrifying.
I used to have nightmares of that scene as a kid fearing Super Buu would turn me into chocolate next.
What about him singing about how he’s gonna eat people
Seeing Krillin get blown up by Frieza had me shook. Seeing him helpless and asking for help before exploding was disturbing to me. Same with getting impaled by Frieza’s second form and Frieza’s sadistic nature on full display.
When Cell absorbed #17...that was a scene from a horror movie and no there could stop it.

Cell is the definition of nightmare fuel in Dragon Ball
he absolutely is. his appearance and his acts matches it perfectly. he's a fucking menace, a very horrifying one.
@@eetfuk3571 and the fact he sucks people’s insides with his tail 🤢🤮

Freeza’s 3rd transformation was literally inspired by the Xenomorph from the ‘Alien’ film franchise.
Freeza’s battle power in his 3rd form was 2,500,000.
Ok
Power levels don't mean shit lol.
That's over 9000!!!!!!
Abridged Piccolo: "Ridley Scott is gonna sue someone."
So his gold form is weaker than his 3rd? Cause his gold for is 1.3 million BP…
Another thing about Cell’s reveal was how all the Z fighters were sensing Goku, Vegeta, Piccolo, Frieza, and King Cold at Gingertown. I remember just being so confused and freaked out about what was happening. And throw in Kami’s ominous demeanor before he fuses with Piccolo.

The first time cell stuck the human dry was chiling..
EXACTLY. Let’s be honest here
6:41 Gohan: "I need an adult."
Vegeta: "I am an adult." *knees Gohan in the stomach*
"By the way, I only hit you because I have pent-up aggression towards your father. Take that."
Yes, it was sad and disturbing to see Vegeta kick little Gohan like the was he did 😢
What about the part where Frieza shoots Piccolo and blows up Krillin? That moment was pretty terrifying until Goku finally went Super Saiyan.
A scene that hits differently now is when the news are broadcasting about imperfect Cell live. There’s a few moments where the characters are watching the broadcast but the audience doesn’t see what the characters are seeing. Instead, we hear a lot of gunshots and what we assume are people dying.

Zamasu. The one Dragon Ball villain who won. It was not the way he intended, but it still resulted in the destruction of all mortal life. It literally took Zeno destroying Future Trunks's timeline to stop him from spreading out into all reality.
I wish Super would've made Trunks victorious.
The first time I actually felt adrenaline shoot through my veins..... I said how in the f@#* are the going to win now? And I love Vegeta more than I like Goku. They trained hard and pushed and still lost. I wanted to jump in and do something! Lol thank God for that button!

1:17 - Kami: "Mr. Popo, Where did you send them?"
Mr. Popo: "I'll tell you where they're not......Safe!"

Dragon Ball series using just 3% realism would become probably the most horrific but absolutely amazingly terrorizing horror shonen to man.

Cell using his tail for absorbing. Whether it were the Androids or humans. Terrifying fate.
Really need to rewatch this show

Broly going legendary in the first movie legit scared me as a kid.
I would also add Dodora killing innocent Namekians and Baby entering other people's bodies. It gave me goosebumps
Cell's sucking the life out of people was creepy. Even in the US edits when yoh just saw the clothes deflate and drop to the ground.
When Dabura finally revelas himself to the Z fighters and blows kibito to pieces, that Dabura smile was really scary as a kid.
Cell's larvae form (full size) empty shell, and going "Super Saiyan" for the first time deserve an honorable mention
These are definitely the scariest moments in all few Dragon Ball anime shows that are still meant for millions of people between the ages of 12 and 66.
I won’t forget during the Garlic Jr Saga, when Piccolo was getting bit by everybody.
My favorite Dragon Ball sagas are The Android + Imperfect Cell Sagas from Z, and the goku black saga from Super. Absolutely the best written sagas and both have really amazing twists and mysteries throughout. Love them for that.
I was surprised I didn't see the savagery of Broly in the first movie. His quotes, threats and aura, were extremely menacing.

It was one of the most brutal beatdowns in the series and though in the end, Spopovich got what he deserved, it was still soooo cringe inducing and hard to watch. I really wanted Gohan to get revenge on him but Babidi beat him to it
I would want to see Top 10 Hilarious OCEAN dub lines in Dragon Ball Z!
Such as Bardock being a scientist who invented the Blutz Wave ki ball 😂😂🤣
@@hectorcollazo8845 I think you mean a BRILLIANT scientist🤣
0:53 Mr. Perfect Cell used the Bright Slap!
Chi-Chi fainted!
It is Super Effective!
Literally talked to my therapist about how cell first form scared me as a kid. Upside down triangles still creep me out.
you missed where those Aussie gunmen gunned down the old couples like they were just beer cans. it still haunts me til this day.
As a massive Dragonball Fan:
Here’s my top 10 most terrifying moments:
10: King Piccolo curb stomps Goku… King Piccolo beating Goku clean with no tricks, help, henchmen etc just showed LEVELS
9: Androids curbstomping the Z Fighters…. Android 18 and 17 one shotting the Earthlings 2 shotting Trunks and humiliating Vegeta means we KNOW even if Goku didn’t have the heart virus and was 100% fresh, he would lose BADLY to them
8: Merged Zamasu being a complete monster… We’ve seen Fusion before but NOT this powerful…. He NEVER moved in the entireity against Goku Vegeta and Trunks during their fight….
7: Moro absorbing Merus’ power and having angel abilities
6:Nappa cutting off Tien’s arm after 2 attacks…. We KNEW they were powerful… We KNEW they were beasts but disarming him was scary as hell!
5: Recomme Breaking Gohan’s neck
4: Black Freiza one shotting Ultra Ego Vegeta AND Mastered Ultra Instinct Goku at the same time… Considering Mastered Ultra Instinct shouldn’t be hit and Ultra Ego is a form which is designed to take hits…. Black Freiza is an absolute monster!
3: Human Extinction Attack
2: Buu destroying the earth and Goku being too anxious to use instant translocation..
1: The entire Cell Arc… Imperfect Cell was terrifying intelligent and creepy… The way he lowered his power level until he saw the androids and his tactics was so smart….
Perfect Cell 3 shotting Super Vegeta and then making future trunks quit was insane… but then we got 10 days until the Cell Games… We thought Goku pushed the SSJ Form to his limit and then Cell makes Goku QUIT!!!! We was all in astonishment and shock… Then Goku says he will pick his next person, Cell then LIKKLEMANS Trunks Vegeta and Piccolo by saying if you pick them you’re wasting my time 😂😂😂😂
Tien getting his arm punched off was a shocker for me…
When buu is walking along the edge of the lookout and piccolo says he’s counting all the people on the planet….that have me chills
Gohan worst nightmare is watching his mom and real dad dying and not even having a thought about Goku is just funny as hell
Kid Buu end of earth scene with Goku saying, "Vegeta, we can't stop that" in a defeated tone
No mention when Dr Gero stabbed Yamsha with his hand?
I think that Cell’s Entrance is the most terrifying Dragon ball Moment.
One scene from GT that was really terrifying was after Goten beat that buff guy that was controlled by baby. Everyone was clapping then seconds later, one of the bystanders began to feel sick then he started talking like baby. That really messed me up as a kid

First form Cell was legitimately nightmare fuel
I love Cell, it's really terrifying and it's theme is very charismatic !
Funny Gohan sees Piccolo more as a father figure than Kakarot…
Imperfect Cell had the best introduction of a villain in all of Anime.
Cells perfect transformation was insane.
Even though it was just a nightmare, seeing cell slap chi chi was satisfying.
Buu going inside that hunter blowing him up😂
Cell eating 17 and 18 gave me nightmares early 90's. I was not allowed to wat that serie when aged 6. Then the 2000's cam3😂
I'm glad to see Super only listed once here.
I think you forgot how Kid Buu destroys the entire world
The entire DBZ Broly movie should've been #1
Didn't Goku meet Android 17 and 18 after Cell was defeated. How did he know what they looked like in his dream. Holy crap, he can dream the future.
Oh man watching Cell back in the days as a kid gave me some bad nightmares 😂
First form cell in DB Abridged was absolutely terrifying in the first few episodes
Amazing video watch mojo of the most scariest moments in the dragon ball franchise,fantastic job. I love the dragon ball franchise.
Super Buu: Do you like eggs?
*Turns Chi-Chi into an egg and stomps on her*
Also, speaking of Buu, lot of horrifying moments around him, too.
Fat Buu murders cities by turning the people into candy and eating them. Then, he builds a house out of the magical transformed bodies of other people - they may be conscious as they are molded into bricks.
Super Buu's planetary extinction attack
Super Buu escapes imprisonment in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber, transforms all of the supporting cast on the Lookout into candy and eats them, including toddler Maron.
Super Buu absorbs Gotenks, Piccolo, and later Gohan.
Kid Buu blows up the Earth, and then several more planets in pursuit of Goku and Vegeta
Cell absorbing 17 and 18 always freaks me out
Another terrifying Zamasu moment was in Goku Black's rant about his origin: an alternate version of Chi-Chi and Goten were murdered by Zamasu, after he stole Goku's body. Plus, that version of Goku was trapped in Zamasu's old body, also helpless to the cruel god's attacks.
Super Buu eating everyone on the look out as NO matter where they hid or fast they ran he will eat them
Frezia's third from is supposed to refrence the xenomorphs, as Akia Tymoryia liked the Aliens franchise, and had to make Freiza turn into such a monster.
In both Goku and Gohan's nightmares the only flaw I saw with them was that Goku wouldn't have known what 17 and 18 looked like since he'd been out of commission since his fight with 19. Similarly, Gohan had never seen Cell (other than the chrysalis he found with Trunks by Cell's Time Machine).
Also, there's a part right before evil Buu appears where good Buu is begging Mr. satan to leave for his own safety. He does the echoing "GO NOWWWW!" line but then Mr. Satan tries to turn back for Buu, when Buu lets out this wild, animalistic "GOOOOOOOO!!!!!" that just really displayed how scared and how much pain Buu was in. The voice actor for Buu did an amazing job with that and none of the other re-dubs including Kai ever touched on that again.
Dragonball has a way of building the heat and intensity . Which is why when the hero shows up and whoops some ass is so satisfying.
Nothing was scarier than super Buu. Him crushing chi chi after turning her into an egg and his human extinction attack
Some terrifying twists in Super that I'd consider terrifying in a bad way:
- Gods of Destruction are a thing
- Beerus ordered Frieza to destroy Planet Vegeta; thereby undermining one of the largest acts of evil committed by the Evil Emperor. There is dialogue noting he would have "done it anyway," but creating any external force disrupts one of the most effectively villainous plot threads of the series.
- Beerus never revealing his hand in their planet's destruction to the two survivors (there are technically three,but the ones one Earth)
- Gohan had become so weak that Ginyu, despite being a frog for 20 years, could easily kick his ass
- The actual supreme being of all reality is a sociopath child creature
- Future Trunks and Future Mai have to live as duplicate refugees in an alternate reality with people they know who aren't the people they know, all because instead of simply erasing Zamasu, Future Zeno erased that entire universe
- The final arc is genuinely just a tournament arc
- In Super Hero, the failed Gotenks fusion serves more purpose than either Goten or Trunks had throughout the duration of Super
Okay that was very scary and terrifyingly in Dragon Ball Series.
does anyone find it wierd that gohan knew what cell's perfect form looked like even though he was in the time chamber during when cell achieved his perfect form?
Great timing as the new chapter for dbs just released
It is a crime not to put DBZ's Broly SS Transformation in the top 10! Vos his transformation was literally scary that I almost shat myself.
Imperfect Cell and Baby are the most disturbing imo
Frieza impaling krillin while laughing and shaking him as blood drips down his horns to his face and licking it is scary as hell
Cell was terrifying especially with the android absorption.
Garlic Jr sage was haunting as well.
Buu for turning and eating everyone.
seeing 17 being absorbed freaked me out as a kid
I wish Trunks was the victor.
7:10 Goku's nightmare
I wonder why Goku dreamed about 17 & 18, but not 16......
:22 Bruh why do I think I just heard Plankton?😂
