I like to imagine, before he recognized a pattern, Gero was making a new Android that would for sure be able to take down Goku - and then his scouting units detected Goku's latest bullshit powerup and Gero had to start from scratch.

Maybe it could work like a beam struggle, except instead of beam struggling you skate up your opponent's attack.

It’d be an ultimate that works best as a counter to an opponent’s ultimate.

I've been rewatching Kai and I'm up to the Android arc, or as I like to call it "The Humbling of Vegeta", and oh man is watching 18 deflate Vegeta's swollen head satisfying. :allears:

More like the Hype Train and It’s Subsequent Derailment. Vegeta vs 19 is legitimately cool and a great re-establishing moment for his character.

Yeah. It made me tear up a bit when someone showed the animation side by side. Goku was reliving his last memories of his Grandpa.

I’m sad to hear about this maybe being the end for TFS. Honestly, the only reason I give a poo poo about Dragonball now is because of the work they put into it. I started watching around episode 8 or 9, and followed it ever since. I’m gonna re-watch everything when it’s done.

I just want TFS to release the final episode. Then ten years of my life can finish since I’ve been following these fools for a fuckin’ while.

I wish they had the clout to bid for an official dub from Toei, but I know they don’t.

It’s a testament to Toriyama’s writing that Dragonball has these really major storytelling flaws (saiyan supremacy, ‘who’s strongest’ rather than ‘who’s most clever,’ eventual samey fights in late z) but he still had a compelling interesting story each arc, even if Buu fell apart about half way through.

which is funny because oozaru vegeta was the strongest guy not named Freeza (and beerus and buu)

I always liked that detail. It told you a lot about why Vegeta was as proud and confident as he was, because to the best of his knowledge he could take on everyone but Frieza 1-on-1 before his tail got cut off. And yet, it’s a really obvious trick once he does it, so he’d rather kick rear end in his regular form.

Yeah, that all took a turn for the worst when Android 16's head gave his speech. That's the kind of poo poo Cell would say and he already did.

I also don't understand why Episode 60 has multiple parts. Just call part 2 "Episode 61" ya dinguses.

Vegeta finale was episode 10, Frieza finale was 30, Cell is 60. If the pattern follows, then Buu finale will be 100.

Also I think they’re going to release part 2 soon and not another loving year from now.

After he got hit by Kaioken 4 Kamehameha Vegeta seemed more outraged than actually injured. And yeah, it was at that point that if he'd just flown back down he'd have crushed the rest of the competition.

But then he had to use up a lot of power making the fake moon, and then he got his tail cut off, and then he got Spirit Bombed.

And then Great Ape Gohan landed on him as the perfect capper for the day

If TFS ever actually does Majin Vegeta I want them to have Goku point out that Vegeta had their first fight won before he resorted to a gimmick, just to have Vegeta completely lose his poo poo.

Eh, considering how much poo poo it inspired, I'd say it breaks roughly even. And even that's mostly because One Piece exists. Most Dragon Ball wannabes aren't quite as good.
