Sorry for such a belated notification. I don't know how I didn't see this post before, but I saw it just now while checking the thread, and I realized I can explain the joke! So I figured why not, even though it's almost 2 years later lol.Omori wrote: Sun Jan 19, 2025 1:59 am Not sure if it's intentionally or not, but a joke quote from Kuririn (TFS EP39) got used in a similar way on Dragon Ball SD Chapter 106:
(So when Trunks' destroyed most of Gero's lab without giving a warning to the others)
TFS: "You're definitely Vegeta's kid"
SD: "As you would expect from Vegeta's son."
I think there are even more instances of similar jokes in SD, like I remember after defeating Raditz, Piccolo threw Gohan against a rock. While in the anime he fires a ki blast to destroy it, in both the TFS and SD version Gohan just collides with that rock and gets hurt.
Could all be a coincidence, but how knows, but maybe Ooishi watched some TFS?
Chapter 353, the one where #18 beats Vegeta, is titled "As You'd Expect of Vegeta". So Ooishi is more than likely referencing the chapter title. Doesn't mean she hasn't seen DBZ Abridged, though. With the ubiquity of the internet, anything's possible.
