I'm surprised the scene where Yi Xing Long uses "Dragon Thunder" (should be a band name) on Vegeta in GT hasn't been mentioned yet.

Also would the remastering job done for the orange bricks count?

The scene where they murder the elderly couple is one of the single sickest, grisly things in the whole series (a moment like that wouldn't be out of place in a grindhouse movie), the anime has additional scenes of them mass shooting their way through a town or two, all culminating with their shooting a puppy. Gotta love their nihilistic motivation for the killing spree too.

We can then add to the tally Super Boo's killing of the short, fat gunman via pouring himself down the guy's gullet until his entire torso grotesquely expands and bursts like a scene out of Monty Python's Meaning of Life.
Totally forgot about that. Yeah that was pretty horrible, and really really dark. The old guy even manages to crawl to his wife before he dies too.
If I recall he doesn't actually get to her.

Videl vs Spopovich. However, I am not talking about Videl´s beatdown, I´m talking about Spopovich putting his neck in place.

Dragon Ball was always a kid series and fans should stop being in denial.

Gosh yeah! That was a scene I completely forgot!
I think it was the most painful attack Vegeta has suffered

Same with Ice Shenron blinding Goku by scratching right through his eyes.
