Most disturbing death

[RandomGuy96]

What do you think the most disturbing death in the series was? My pick is a tie between Babidi making Spopovich explode and Super Buu forcing himself down a man's throat until he bursts.

[ABED]

I have to go with the death of the old married couple by that prick and his manservant.

[Daisetsu]

Off the top of my head, it would have to be Cell absorbing that rich guy.

[Gyt Kaliba]

So far I'd have to agree with everything mentioned. They're all pretty messed up. I'll also toss this into the mix though - Tao spearing Bora in mid-air. The death itself isn't unfeasibly brutal in the same way the others' mentioned are, but it's still pretty twisted. He kills the guy in front of his son, a son who it's pretty clear practically hero-worships his father. That's pretty disturbing when you think about it.

Dabura turned into a cookie and eaten... as silly as that sounds, that's easily straight out of a nightmare.

[TheGmGoken]

People already said my main chooses. But to me. The last image of Krillin's death creeps me out. I honestly can tell you I had nightmares about Krillin's murder. Which is before Tamboruine was shown. So it was just someone with glow in dark red eyes with the image of Krillin dying and then I switch places with Krillin and I was dead. It was a horrible time.

When this is the last thing you see in the episode. It freaks me out.

[Codarik]

Dodoria snapping that Namekian's neck came first thing to mind.

[DBZAOTA482]

Majin Boo punching Babidi's head in, and Kuririn's first death.

[Patrick]

I always thought Future Gohan's death from Future 17 & 18 was absolutely brutal, and Trunks finding his body was pretty emotional as well.

Second place goes to Dodoria snapping that warrior Namekian's neck. I remember looking away from the screen after he did it, I was mortified.

You don't actually see them die, but the cutaway to the dead family where Babidi's ship is in Chapter 446, complete with bisected mother, dead father with a missing hand, and a bloody head wound on the son is pretty nasty.

[Landcross]

Vegeta on Namek. DUDE IS CRYING. VEGETA IS CRYING!

[Polyphase Avatron]

That guy who Dr. Gero killed by crushing his neck

[ABED]

That guy who Dr. Gero killed by crushing his neck

I assume you are referring to the far more graphic depiction in the manga where he decapitates the poor guy.

[dprez]

For the most disturbing deaths, aside from no name side characters, General Blue, Bora, and Piccolo Daimaos were pretty gruesome. Tenshinhans brutal beating by Nappa is up there.

Vegeta may take the cake from an emotional and imagery standpoint. Freeza's slow beating of him and his final breath is too epic.

Then I'd say when Boo absorbs Gotenks and Piccolo, and then later Gohan. Their "apparent" deaths seamed pretty damn disturbing to the surviving characters.

[Mystic Buu]

Goku's first death.

[DonZ]

Kuririn's first death
Yamcha's second death (Dr.Gero)

[RocktheDragon]

Mine would have to definitely be awarded to that Budokai Tenkaichi attendant whose head gets exploded by Babidi. That was pretty intense and seem to come out of nowhere as well, at least considering how light things were and how things hit the fan rather quickly.

[dbboxkaifan]

The rich fatass who was devoured by Cell and then Kuririn being impaled by Freeza but he didn't die (should have) so it doesn't count.

[Insertclevername]

That Budokai worker/monk/priest (?) who got his head blown up by Babidi. Maybe my second would go to the previously mentioned slaughtered family next to Babidi's spaceship.

I have to go with the death of the old married couple by that prick and his manservant.

You're the only person that I've seen point that out. I love that scene. It feels so "real" to me, that people would be so sick to take advantage of such unfortunate circumstances and use it as a cover to perform more acts of evil.
