Mostly due to the fact it kinda seemed Dodoria was completely wiping out the Nameks like nothing. That and Krillin and Gohan were sorta fighting him and using other tactics to not fight him. But I feel it's mostly due to the fact that Vegeta got a power up after losing to Goku. Hell it's what I love about the abridged series is how they poke fun at how bullshit the sayian's power level grows.

Being fat is fine, Yajirobe managed to at least turn the tables against Vegeta.  (Yeah I know he cut off the tail but still that was pretty hilarious)

Probably my favorite part about that is how Krillin thinks he is immortal. And then Vegeta thinking OH my god if he used the dragonballs on himself I'M GOING TO MURDER.. That... bastard. Pretty much all of Freeza saga was great, I felt that was when TFS was hitting it's groove. Once they learn not to use references from other shows (which alot of "abridged" series do) they started to roll and it never stopped. The early episodes were weak. I do admit Goku v.s. Vegeta is still my favorite because of that one moment when Goku and Vegeta fire off both their ki blasts. Vegeta saying "THIS IS THE END KAKOROT. You don't stand a chance. I put all my power into this attack. NOW perish with the rest of your pathetic WORLD!" And then you hear.. "KAI O KEN".. "Noooo..." "TIMMEEEEEEES" "NO NO NO." "FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUR" "NONONONONONNONONONFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU" Shindragon fucked around with this message at 06:57 on Feb 3, 2014 |

If I had to pick a fight, it would be Goku v.s. Piccolo. Granted I watched DB as a kid but I never got far to the when Goku grows up and fights Piccolo. It's kinda why in DBZ I was like whose this green Mostly because of how ruthless Piccolo was back then. Especially the fact that he had the ability to grow bigger and still be roughly as fast. I really enjoyed how Lord Slug Movie Abridged basically poked fun that this was a rehash Piccolo fight. 2nd best is probably Goku v.s. Cell. Even though Goku is outmatch, he still puts up a fight and Cell is enjoying it. Hell Goku goes for goddamn kill and still isn't enough. Though he was a bit of a batshit crazy guy for giving Cell a senzu bean. I really can't wait how Abridge handles it. It's going to be great seeing Piccolo rip Goku a new one. Gohan's fights were ok, it just sucks that how he literally became the strongest in the universe and doesn't do crap. Especially when he came back to fight Buu. I like and hate that one. One because Gohan was completely destroying Buu like he was nothing. The second was Buu outsmarting Gohan and absorbing him. I guess you can say the only bad thing is all that offscreen training only for Gohan to be taken out. That left a bad taste. Ah yes the Gohan v.s. Goku gif. Too bad that was a fake Gohan made by Buu inside Buu.

Basically because how much it dropped the ball on Gohan's development. You see hints of him getting stronger, and we get the pay off in Cell saga where he completely kicks Cell's rear end. Now in the future? He's gone soft and isn't as strong as he used to be. I did enjoy the whole him hiding his identify so people wouldn't freak out about a normal human being doing super human things. Great Sayiaman was great. Buu wasn't a bad character at all in retrospect, but come on the gently caress on. Gohan couldn't catch the loving ring? Just.. argh. All that training was for nothing. It's like nope Goku is the only one who can do a power up and it works. Buu saga just felt like going backwards. It was literally buy Goku time so he can deliver the final blow. Granted I did enjoy Vegeta's sacrifice because he did something for someone else once instead. Even knowing he might not be able to see Goku in the afterlife. Just. gently caress the buu saga. It sucked. I will take solace in the fact that Mr. Satan end saving the world though. Mr. Satan rules. Shindragon fucked around with this message at 04:59 on Mar 17, 2014 |

Spiritus Nox posted:Someone had to do it eventually, really. Otherwise, who even cares about this whole death thing? Let Buu blow up the universe, we'll just chill in heaven and laugh at him when he runs out of things to blow up and goes slowly insane(er) lost and alone in the void. I mean, that scene with Buu horribly killing every motherfucker on the lookout loses a bit of punch when we cut to to the afterlife and Videl and Chi-chi are just picking flowers with Dabura and talking about their men and having a grand old time. It's like Tien said. Why do you care. Death really has no meaning in this. We are literally waiting to go back. And I just remembered something. Chaotzu saying next time he gets a free sundae. I just realize technically he gets killed by Buu because of the whole earth blowing up. Hah.

Get to watching Dragonball you fool! Thought it might end up making you think, man everyone who is not Goku turns useless in DBZ.  Granted my favorite fight is obviously Goku v.s. Piccolo. I do like how Piccolo never uses his get large and stay the same speed/size tech ever again after DB.

icantfindaname posted:What do people think of the manga vs anime? I just finished reading through Freeza and it's pretty good, I'll put off final judgement for now though. I didn't grow up with DBZ like most people here seem to have, so it's interesting to be exposed to the manga first. Do people generally think the manga is better? I understand the original DB/DBZ is stuffed with filler. It defintely changed my opinion alot seeing as I didn't know animes were based off mangas at first. I don't think Ocean Dub here even mention it was part of the manga but I could be remembering wrong. But yeah I was very suprised on how different the pacing was in the manga. Kinda makes me a bit sad that DB does get a bad wrap for being filler like hell, but manga wise Akira doesn't bullshit with the pace. So yeah I was surprised to see Freeza v.s. Goku was not that long.

Nessus posted:I think the Dragon can only wish people back if they've just been dead a year? Or is that the Namek dragon? Yeah shelong can only revive people only if they were dead for a year. Hence why pre DBZ, krillin and Roshi were put in a capsule that perseve their bodies so they wouldn't rot. Considering Shelong was killed by King Piccolo.

Not to mention, you see the evolution of Vegeta being the straight man of the group to basically one of the best characters in the abridge series. Once they stop with the references from other cultures it became hilarious. Granted the wrestling episode of Raccome v.s. Vegeta is my favorite. Especially during two parts, one Raccome basically saying his lines from the ocean dub. THE NAME IS RACCOME AND THE NAME RHYMES WITH DOOM, AND YOU'LL BE HURTING ALL TOO SOON. (nailed it with the doom remix being his theme) And then Vegeta's theme being from Dragonball GT. Just his reaction face killed it.

Best Frieza/Goku moment. Freeza: You, you’re different. What happened? What the hell are you? Goku: Can’t you tell Freezer, it’s just like Vegeta said. Freeza: No you loving don’t! Goku: I am the hope of the Omniverse. I am the light bulb in the darkness. I am the bacon in the fridge for all living things that cry out in hunger! I am the Alpha and the Amiga! I am the terror that flaps in the night! I am Son Goku! and I am a Super *Freeza shoots Goku in the face* Goku: ...... Saiyan.

Zorak posted:Which is dumb because Dragon Ball is actually way better Oh definitely. I enjoyed DB more because it was less powerup levels and just unorthodox fighting. (considering one of the fights revolved around smell and loving Krillin of all people forgot he had no nose) Not to mention, techincally Master Roshi was still a relevant badass. Jackie Chun v.s. Goku was a really good fight because it showed that Goku still had a ways to go to be the best. Also it gave us Piccolo Day. Granted while I do love the Falconer music. Piccolo's original theme is still the best. Most badass theme ever It's also why I enjoyed the Slug movie DBZA because it was really just a rehash of King Piccolo's plot.

Yeah it was pretty bad. I kinda put this up there with Bio Brolly. Not once but twice did they decide oh hey dude is dead. SIKE! Also plot was basically Dende asking for help from them and they go to the new namek to find out was wrong and then well the movie happens. Pretty much how it goes. They fight the robots, find out Cooler is behind this and yeah Vegeta just shows up for no reason. edit: Still I enjoyed the abridge. Some jokes were flat, but I was excited to finally see Vegeta's debut in a movie. Much as I hate the Brolly movie, kinda wanna see them do it because holy poo poo is Vegeta really afraid of Brolly.

I just went back to check the plot of fusion reborn. I forgot that the reason poo poo whent down because one person in charge of the tanks for purifying evil energy decides to goof off and not change it and that's when poo poo goes down. To think, if someone loving goofs around, the world goes apeshit. The King should've done better background checks.

Lol fusion reborn would've ended greatly if the failed fusion beat the villain. His moves were so orthodox, they were hard to predict. Kinda nice once they do the right fusion, they really don't waste time in basically wrecking the dude. Which in a way Gogeta was more of goku's attitude more so than Vegetto. Granted Vegetto was still smart, he was goofing around alot.

And again now I get the oldest joke in the book. So he was literally actually trapped inside a planet (star) I do hope they keep him being a pirate. Goddamn TFS knows how to do long payoffs. Edit: My favorite pay off is when the early episodes of DBZA Piccolo tells Goku to hold off Raditz for five minutes. And then when Goku is powering up the spirit bomb against Freeza, he does the same thing to Piccolo And then.. Piccolo: Did.. Did you just pull a grudge?

It was nice to see Goku didn't have to come in tos ave the day. Ok techincally he did come in to punch Bojack in the face, but it was pretty nice to see that he was dead so he could only just literally punch and then disappear. Aww the gohan growing up montage.
