Park Ranger 17 throwing his hands up for the Spirit Bomb is also in the manga.

And I keep forgetting how bad 17's actual dub voice is.

He's got the right voice, I think, it's just the performance that is awful. His general tenor isn't that different from whoever's playing him in abridged, he's just not having nearly as much fun with it.

IIRC in the manga that was supposed to be Launch in that panel originally, but Toriyama changed his mind and had it be 17 instead but kept the original dialogue he wanted to use.

Or so I hear. Take the explanation with a grain of salt.

B-but...

Toriyama openly admitted that after the Saiyan saga he straight up forgot that Launch ever existed...

I think Toriyama is just trolling with us at this point

Honestly I find it hard to get an accurate read on Toriyama beyond being able to say he prefers gags to dramatic stuff. Like people talk up his forgetfulness, and I do think he does forget some details (Such as with Shuu having a different name originally), but the manga itself actually seems pretty self-consistent on major details. Like even the time travel in the Androids arc makes a decent amount of sense.

Anyways I found a source on the Android 17/Launch thing: http://www.kanzenshuu.com/translations/db-full-color-majin-buu-arc-06/.

Toriyama posted:

No.17 during the Genki-Dama scene was actually Lunch in the rough draft. Lunch went off chasing after Tenshinhan. Since Tenshinhan and Chiaotzu moved around from place to place as they trained, they really gave her the slip.

Even the bit about her chasing after Tien is actually stated in the beginning of the Saiyan saga IIRC.

We don't know for sure but since 8 looks like the Frankenstein's monster and has stitches and all he was probably made from a corpse and is a functional organic being and thus could resurrect, while 16 which is just a full fledged machine made to look like Gero's son and as such he didn't.

As for 17, I always found strange that he reacted to Goku's voice but found even stranger that he didn't trust Vegeta's. He should know he's with the good guys and that if he's begging for help poo poo IS getting real.

I was watching some DBZA over again, including the most recent episodes, and I have to say I think the way they portray Goku's instant transmission is the best running gag they've done. Him popping in and out of scenes is never not hilarious.

It's even funnier because Goku does exactly this in the new episode of Super.

The film of BotG because it's better, the film of RoF because it's shorter
