DragonBall Z Abridged

[coola]

As you are coming to 50 episodes, I'm sorry for getting personal, but... i want to thank you so much, for all laughs you are giving, 2 years ago, my father passed away, and your videos really helped me with giving me laugh in time i really needed, you grew up during each episode slowly, but noticably, to each and every single voice actor and voice actress, editing staff, and rest people, that help creating TFS DBZ Abridged, i salute you. And wish you Happy Anniversary, thank you again

I know this doesn't have much to do with DBZA, in fact, it has nothing to do with DBZA but it is a product of TFS so it counts, right? Right? Riiiiiiiiight?

While you guys are waiting for the 50th episode, might I suggest you check out Final Fantasy VII Abridged? First two episodes have been a riot so far and as someone who has no experience or familiarity with any of the games, I don't have to worry about anticipating the game's plot threads to potentially numb the comedic effects of the narrative, since I'm taken by surprise by pretty much everything that happens.

The thing with the stuff

Uh...did we watch the same video? He didn't "go on and on" about clone making and smoke stopping. He made a quick offhand remark about it and then went on to poke fun at the comic's dated tendencies while still saying it's a good comic that holds up well despite the old quirks. In fact, the review was basically nothing like you described it. In fact, he didn't really complain about any of the things you mentioned as much as he just talked about them in a humorous light. I don't see how you could have taken it as him being particularly critical of them unless you came in wanting to think he was. Either that, or you're taking this far more seriously than he is.

Look, I can understand if his opinions or reasoning rubs you the wrong way for whatever reason, but it certainly doesn't warrant these personal diatribes against him, especially if its based off of inaccurate portrayals of what he's doing in the first place. In short, it sounds like you're being overly defensive of Spider-Man and don't react well to somebody somewhat lampooning it, and that's no reason to be so hateful of the guy. The personal attacks and pontificating about his life over harmless jokes are completely out of line.

Being in the same position, i largely agree with one caveat: Tifa is so far completely unlikeable and not very funny.

Which is funny... because she is currently our most popular character in FFVIIMA.

Eh, everyone's entitled to their opinion. For me, she hasn't done anything funny enough to overcome her unlikeabilty. So far, she's done nothing likable and acted like a complete bitch. Her abrasiveness is done in a funny way, like Barret's. I mean, she's supposed to be Cloud's friend, yet she ruins his life and smugly tells him that if he doesn't stay he'll get raped.

To compare her to Vegeta, both characters do things that make people want to see them get their ass kicked. The difference is that Vegeta actually gets his ass kicked.

I'm still gonna follow the series though, because other than Tifa I do like the series

I wouldn't expect karma to catch up to her. With Cloud's character seemingly being a guy who's always down on his luck, a fact that's played for laughs and exploited by his friends, it doesn't look like Tifa's antics are going away anytime soon.

I really like the tone/delivery of Vegeta's lines here. Very fun. X3

[BlazingBarrrager]

Am I the only one who finds the "data not found" line to remind me of Cooler's second movie?

...beep.

On a side note, watched out the first two episodes of FF7:MA and my Kami are they freaken hilarious.

If you guys ever do an episode preview do it with dumplin.

I'm not being overly defensive about Spider-Man. What I heard, is a fedora wearing, nasally voiced guy, poorly explain a comic. I didn't watch it for that long, I won't lie. I watched him describe the first page in his "mock voice" for all the dialogue. I didn't come to a review to listen to a guy read me the comic or explain every detail, but that's what Linkara does, because he doesn't actually read the comics.

[Kaboom]

I think we need to drop this particular sub-topic.

[BlazingBarrrager]

I think we need to drop this particular sub-topic.

Agreed. Let's go to #17's world that's filled with candy and puppies and...

...I think I've watched that episode too much.

[Noah]

I was reviewing the episode 47 and Cell said that he would kill Goku? In the original series did Cell knew Goku was alive before met him in his 2nd form?

I dont think he knew Goku was dying of sickness in the first place

[coola]

He actually knew that Goku was alive, Kuririn told him, when he and Trunks arrived during Piccolo fought with Cell

[ShadowDude112]

Watching the latest "Adventures of Dumplin" how in a hypothetical Abridged BOG they'd have Gokû mistakenly call Beerus "Bills" the entire time without anyone correcting him ala how he calls Freeza "Freezer" throughout that arc. X3

I also second the wonderfulness of BOG's 'Gokû desu' scene. :3 It is so much fun.

As much as I get why you'd want this, it's different. Freezer is an accurate translation to Freeza, Bills is not an accurate translation for Beers/Beerus. If they had him say Beers, that'd be fine. Also, I don't think you understand how much leverage TFS has for fans. If they use Bills, dub fans/uninformed fans, will think Bills is correct.

I would have responded to this earlier, but I had that argument and I forgot to respond.

There's only a small amount of fans who still use Bills, dub or not. Uniformed fans though will think that

[jcogginsa]

Which Adventures of Dumplin was that in?

[Polyphase Avatron]

Well if they have people constantly correct him in the episode then fans won't get the wrong idea.
