I always like a Piccolo/Inner Nail bit, though it's good that they don't overuse it. There's been less Popo stuff lately, too, I noticed.
Kentai wrote:Son Gokuu is a fascinating character anyway, because he is - at face value, anyway - an idiot savant. The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

Keeping in mind that Popo wasn't even a secondary character in the main series, of course there wouldn't be a lot of him in the abridged series.

I imagine once Piccolo fuses with Kami, there will be constant bickering between the three.

I can see it now, Piccolo is fighting Cell in Ginger town and is about to destroy him.
Nail: "Hey if this guy is part Namekian I wonder if he gets wifi too?"
Piccolo: "I don't see any antenna so probably not."
Nail: "Hey ask him, maybe he has AIM and we can chat."
Piccolo: "Uhhh, why hes right in front of us its quicker to talk and nobody uses AIM anymore...Wait what am I talking about none of that matters he probably doesn't have wifi and I'm about to kill him"
Kami: "Excuse me Piccolo, is our wifi working I can't get my email to come up"
Piccolo: "does the page come up"
Kami: "no my email won't come up it keeps saying wrong password"
Piccolo: "....did you leave the caps lock on?"
Nail: "oh did you type in @yahoo.com after your email"
Piccolo: "Shut up Nail, you don't have to do that"
Nail: "You do on Hotmail"
Piccolo: "Then why did you say @yahoo.com?"
Nail: "Because that's the page hes on"
Kami: "But my email is mrpopoisthetruegod@netscape.com, oh never mind where is solitaire?"
Nail: "Hey Hey...You wanna play me is mine sweeper???"
Kami: "But that's a single player game."
Then that conversation kind of carrys on in the background with them playing mine sweeper which annoys Piccolo but not as much as when they were talking to him.
Piccolo: "Good enough, now where was I, oh yeah I was going to use my new found powers and finish this once and for all! So that Cell can't accomplish his plan and cause any more damage." *looks up*
Cell: "Solar Flare!"
And of course Cell escapses.
Piccolo: "Damn it!"
Nail: "Sooooo.... That just happened.... Hey you wanna play winner?"

I look forward to the 3 way banter between Piccolo, Nail, and God.

He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.
It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke
Herms wrote:The fact that the ridiculous power inflation is presented so earnestly makes me just roll my eyes and snicker. Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

I don't think they'll count that as individual people absorbed. I doubt Cell will get any banter like that.

Maybe not as people, but giving him a kind of split personality would be pretty funny. Going from Goku dumb to all out egocentric Vegeta to foppish King Cold in the span of a few sentences, or something like that.

Trust me, we do have a vision for what we're going to do with Cell and his DNA-clusterfuck. But not multiple personalities, I assure you.

Okay, I'm gonna throw this out there.... pervert Cell.

Everything he says is a sexual pun because of how he obtains his power...

That's precisely why ordinary men pursue the concept of perfection, it's infatuation. But ultimately I have to ask myself "What is the true meaning of being perfect?" and the answer I came up with was nothing. Not one thing. The truth of the matter is I despise perfection! If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"

Fight between Imperfect Cell and Kami-fused Piccolo:

Imperfect Cell charges Special Beam Cannon and fires.
Imperfect Cell: "Nail Gun!"
Piccolo/Kami/Nail all together: "DAMN IT!"

Cell kills Trunks, his ghost haunts Vegeta along with Nappa's.

Nappa - Hey Vegeta, Vegeta, Vegeta?

Trunks - Hey Daddy, Daddy, Daddy?

No wonder Vegeta goes apesh*it on Cell.

Nappa came back to life. They would have to kill him again but I guess you could say that Cell does.
