Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
The opening scene was really funny.
Are you making Mr. Satan a parody of Hulk Hogan? Personally I was hoping for John Cena. It would be perfect if, after the announcer said "the strongest man in the world", it concluded with "AND HIS NAME IS MISTER SATAN!" With 'My Time is Now' playing.
Also Frappe is Gero's brother here? I wonder what the family reunions were like.
I'm wondering how Dende will interact with Videl in the future...
I think you should redo Bardock the Father of Goku Abridged and change the end of Bardock's vision, so instead of seeing the Para Para brothers, it goes: "And a purple cat man... and Freeza again, but looking a lot more tacky this time... the a purple guy with a head shaped like a dick... then... himself? No, it's some other guy who stole his body... ah forget it, just let me die already."

I didn't think kidnappings happened WITH consent, Dende. Not even one day in and you're already fuckin' up.

Surprised George Takei didn't make a scene here.KaiserNeko wrote:It's Gohan being super duper awkward as his parents are banging in the other room.Fionordequester wrote:Then why does the narrator sound so tired? One of the jokes in this episode was that Chi-Chi was running Goku into the ground with all their sexual intercourse; hence, Goku's tired as he's doing the narration. Plus, you can hear him groaning occasionally during the disclaimer.DanielSSJ wrote:I thought it was Gohan trying to narrate while he parents were in the other room.
Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
OMG! You guys never fail to gives us a good piece of entertainment! I had so much fun!
Just a couple of comments:
- God! I love that now you guys have subtitles! But got a little mess up after ten minutes
- Why Goku asked if Krillin had a wig?
- I thought you guys were going to use "Hercule" instead of Satan, but that would ruin the joke HAIL SATAN!
- How Cell knew about how Goku met Bulma?
- Wow, I didn't expect that scene about Android 16's memories, you guys really nail it
(it almost made me feel sorry for Gero)
- Wait... Vegeta trained 3 years in RoSaT? Just like Super? Popo comment was a reference to Super retcon?
- I noted baby Trunks was bald when Goku was looking for the Dragon Radar in Bulma's lab
- Funny that the guy who learn all the story of Dragon Ball (at time) got killed later by Cell (so no one else will know)

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
The joke was that Krillin was asking if he could have sex with Chichi instead of Goku because Goku wanted a break, and when Goku said no we were supposed to think it's because he didn't want anyone else sleeping with his wife, but then we realize he would be okay with it if they could actually trick Chichi into thinking Krillin was him, which he thought a wig would do.Noah wrote:- Why Goku asked if Krillin had a wig?
They lampshaded that in the episode, with Cell being asked about how he knew the parts he wasn't there for, and basically giving a non-answer.- How Cell knew about how Goku met Bulma?
Actually in this version it was only 3 days. Mr. Popo said he changed the time chamber to remove the time differential.Wait... Vegeta trained 3 years in RoSaT? Just like Super? Popo comment was a reference to Super retcon?

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
Wow, you guys did an excellent job! The writing is just getting better and better. One thing I love about what you guys are doing is adding bits like 16's backstory in there. A lot of people in the fandom don't know about those more obscure bits of information so it's cool to see it brought into the limelight!

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
I loved the intro scene!
Gohan talking over that was hilarious. This episode was just so funny, makes me want to watch right after posting this.
Really liked Dende's sassy return and how he defends himself whenever someone said Little Green. I really liked 16's video you guys made. So tragic and heartfelt but funny at the same time.
I really hope 17 and 18's true names get in future episodes.
So stoked for the next episode as always and movie wink wink.

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
16's backstory is one of the best things Abridged has done, and why it makes the series so much better to introduce new viewers to. Looking forward to how well DB will be done too, if it's done in the same worldbuilding style.

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
My headcanon has always been that Lapis and Lazuli were Flappe's kids. Gero kidnapped them as "payback" for Flappe betraying the Red Ribbon Army.

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
Nah, that wouldn't be much good, what I would like that instead of killing off Gero too soon, they could still keep him playing a major role in this arc, interacting with other characters and his creationsDanielSSJ wrote:Stuff like that made me wish that No. 19 and No. 20 were the main villains of this arc like Toriyama originally planned.SSJFutureTrunks wrote:Absolutely loved the bit with Gero's son. Really wish this was in canon. Gero wanting to kill Goku because he killed his son is much better than just hating him for destroying the Red Ribbon Army. Kaiser, you and the team really knocked it out of the park with this one!
Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
I imagine that 17 doesn't step on Gero's head, and the Z fighters just give the head to Bulma to interrogate throughout the arc.Noah wrote:Nah, that wouldn't be much good, what I would like that instead of killing off Gero too soon, they could still keep him playing a major role in this arc, interacting with other characters and his creationsDanielSSJ wrote:Stuff like that made me wish that No. 19 and No. 20 were the main villains of this arc like Toriyama originally planned.SSJFutureTrunks wrote:Absolutely loved the bit with Gero's son.

Re: DragonBall Z Abridged
So, all well and good that Dende is into Gohan, but I still think it would be a funny callback if Dende still wants to...nestle inbetween Bulma's boobs.

Not gonna lie, Dende this episode kinda fell flat from me.

I'm not sold on "Mad with power" Dende yet. But that could just be personal taste
