Trunks is History

Kinda surprised that this hasn't been posted yet, because MsDBZbabe favorite'd it
Anyways this was made by a couple of abridgers (MasterWGS and LordMoonstone) and features cameos from some abridgers.

The voice work was good, but aside from that it didn't really do much for me. Sorry. ^^;

I did like Trunks mentioning Goten, and the Terminator artwork at the end was nice, but that was about it.

I guess this just isn't my type of humor, I dunno.

That was pretty fantastic.

I love how they made fun of the entire genre of fandubs too. "Saying faggot is a joke!" "That is a reference to things I enjoy!"

Also, the potatoes.

Wow, that was hilarious. I loved the "Their vision is based on movement" joke. And the androids having robot voices/mannerisms.

Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

That video was alright, but the ending was awesome and so unexpected.

That was actually a lot funnier then I anticipated.

Same here, I was expecting some badly acted, thought up on the spot, no real editing piece of crap, it was actually good.

I actually don't know any of those "abridgers", save for KaiserNeko. Man, I need to watch more abridged series.

Well, y'know, I might as well put up a list of recommendations!

Antfish's JoJo's Bizarre Adventure Abridged: Definitely one of the best voice actors among us and one of the funniest writers.
http://www.youtube.com/user/AntfishTAS

Hbi2k's Berserk, Gantz, and Escaflowne Abridged: Two under his belt, on his third. Fantastic writer, though his production skills are somewhat lacking.
http://www.youtube.com/user/hbi2k

Big O Abridged: Funny, very offensive, and all around well written and voiced
http://www.youtube.com/user/SXAbridged

Those are just some off the top of my head. I can't stay on long, but these guys are definitely worth checking out.


As for Trunks is History, I thought it was quick, funny, and a righteously silly DBZ parody. Brofist to Moonstone. =D

It was not half bad and really did take the word "abridged" literally. :roll: It was a fun watch and the radio bit was probably my favorite bit. The Ox King potato gag was a bit too random though . . . but I admit I did laugh. :oops:

P.S. Man, Bulma must be really bad at medicine if she didn't notice Gohan was *SPOILER ALERT*. :?

I looked up Fist of the North Star Abridged and Hokuto no Ken Abridged and they're soooo unbearable... I'm on the wall over actually wanting to do something about it.

I mean working on my own series...

I was positively surprised by this one. Although I am a fan of longer abridged series, I prefer shorter works, like this one and Bardock: Father of Goku by TFS.

I liked the humor in the video, and also the voicing, how they made the Androids to have robotic voices and mechanical sounds as they moves. Also, how they mixed in Terminator and last, but not the least: Gohan being a Terminator.

I forgot to do this in my first post, but I'm surprised no one else has mentioned it yet.

I love the fact that they kept switching terms for the androids, ending on the totally ridiculous "Artificial Cybernoids." It's something that only the fans would get, but it's a nice little nod to all the increasingly stupid arguments and work-arounds for "Jinzouningen."
