Stupid Moments in the World of Dragon Ball

Drunken Master · Post by **Drunken Master** » Mon Aug 06, 2007 12:37 am

I wanted to make this topic for awhile, but I get sidetracked. Just list the stupid moments you remember the most, subtitled, dubbed, what have you.

Okay, this I thought in the Hatchyakku-whatever game was really ridiculous...So somehow bad guys come back from the dead, the ones that hate the Saiya-jin race the most apparently. Slug, Cooler, Freeza and...Turles...? I recall that in a subtitle I watched, he said he hated the Saiya-jin race...because a Saiya-jin killed him. Wow. That's pretty stupid.

Also, in the first Cooler movie, one of his henchmen named Neiz (

) says in the FUNi dub, well this is his quote - "Yeah! I wanna kill the guy who killed Freeza!" Another stupid moment.

Vegeta letting Cell become complete. Talk about a slap in the face to everyone who tried to stop Cell before and after that, not too mention the Trunks that got killed by Cell when he stole the time machine.

At least it resulted in Super Saiyan level 2. But "Super Vegeta" could've gone down as the hero who destroyed Cell...nope, he snatched that glory from himself.

That and the dub-line during the Kamehameha duel where Vegeta says "That's right, good Piccolo..." as the Namek flies to attack Cell.

Not kidding.

Ah, but can you imagine how bloated Vegeta's ego would become if he'd defeated Cell as "Super Vegeta"? He'd never let anyone hear the end of it. Especially Goku.

Goku would just power up to 50% and make him piss himself.

Of course, it would make Dabura an overwhelming and extremely potent villain, and Mister Satan would have not the chance to gain fame...

Would it really be that bad?!

I would love to see the expression on Vegeta's face at that powerup. XD

OH! I forgot all about Mister Satan. Wow...no idea how they would've introduced Videl then.

I don't think Vegeta would take very well to the media blitz that would follow him.

Bulma: "Vegeta, this is all your fault!"
Vegeta: "What now!?"
Bulma: "Those reporters are still out there! I nearly ran one of them over!"
Vegeta: *humps* "You say that like it's a bad thing."
Bulma: "They're your mess, so get rid of them!"
Vegeta: "Fine." *walks over to the window, sticks an arm out, and blows up the front yard, reporters included.*

Anyway...

Goku giving Cell that Senzu bean right before Gohan's fight. I think we all made the same face as the Z Senshi when he did that move. >>

Oh and can we include Buruma and the crab? >>

I say the Saban version of the Pilaf saga. They changed that joke about the Dragon Ball being in between Yamcha's legs to not trusting Goku because he's short.

'Nuff said.

The best part of this: "Yes! I'm home! I'm alive!".

What about Oolong apparently thinking that Bulma was sleeping with the dragonballs? Not sure if that was in the original dub, but it most certainly was in the redub. Lamest excuse ever.

The Big Green dub is allowed in this, right?

Well, as far as I can see, any version of the series goes.

LET THAT CHILD ALONE! (Piccolo)

MAGIC BEAN BLAST! (Gohan)

SPECIAL NEEDLE ATTACK! (Piccolo)

MAGNETIC DISKS! (Krillin)

Gotenks not finishing Buu when he had the chance. Krillin not finishing off Frieza when he had the chance. (Yeah, it would've been anti-climactic, but still...)

"Its okay. I can see their parachutes".

Uhhhh...they died. And that was back when they were trying to avoid death as possible back then with the dub. Brings back memories.

I saw in a funny edits movie someone yelling this: "You destroyed the Cargo robot!". When did they say that in the show? It wasn't really clear to me.

Sshadow5001 · Post by **Sshadow5001** » Mon Aug 06, 2007 7:59 pm

The cargo robot scene is from the original Dragonball Z dub around the saiyan saga, a bunch of helicopters with news reporters and camera men were flying over the battle field and 1 got blown up by Nappa.

So to cover up the whole death thing they had one of the people shout "they blew up the cargo robot"

Bomber Greek · Post by **Bomber Greek** » Mon Aug 06, 2007 8:54 pm

What's a cargo robot?

The whole time, I thought by "cargo", they meant the character.

LOL, cargo robot: http://youtube.com/watch?v=_AiUaPRjmb4

(I think Tanooki Kuribo's video sums up a lot of the dumb moments as far as the early dub edits are concerned).
