New Dragon Ball Z video! czcams.com/video/CfXpS2VW_1Q/video.html
Let's be honest, guys. If Dragon Ball was a sitcom, the audience would go nuts every time our man Yamcha enters the scene.
Played by John Stamos
Yamcha will be like Gibby from iCarly
Oh Yamcha, you're so pathetic!
phacts
He’d totally steal the show.
Much much better than Dragonball Evolution
Any shart would be better than that unspeakable sin.
😆😆😆🏆👍🏻
The bar is underground
Never heard of that
better than DB super
Raditz looks like Goku's cool brother who shows up, drinks milk straight from the carton and generally makes a nuisance of himself for a week in the show before having to leave, but not before teaching us a lesson on the value of family.
They both look like Steven Segal
The parents want him kicked out for something drugs related, which ends up in Gohans locker .. he gets busted, and Raditz gets furious, demanding Gohan to NEVER do drugs... Goku confronts him, and Raditz draws first blood. Goku tells him to never visit Gohan, nor the family, again.
Gohan gets into a incident involving the local drug dealers. Raditz saves Gohans life, but paying the ultimate price, in dying with Goku by his side, in his arms. They shed a tear, meanwhile, at home, the parents hug each other looking at the moonlight saying 'will our son ever change, is it too late?', panning to a framed picture of young smiling Raditz.
i mean, this is just what happens in dbz. except only once there
I drink milk straight from the carton, though it's half a litre so i down it all
Wasn't that exactly the jist of his arc?
If DBZ was a sitcom, I feel like Yamcha and Krillin would be the fan favourites.
With a lot of hoots and hollers from the live television audience.
lmao Raditz as the fun loving uncle.
17 & 18 look damn near perfect
18 looks like margot robbie or Jamie Pressly
@@redpikmin017 and 17 looks like Tommy Wiseau (The Room)
Everything is perfect
I love the version of the android 18 ❤
@@lecochonmalefique down to the last minute detail
Sitcom Gohan: "Hey, dad. Do you want to skip training for a day and come with me to the amusement park instead?" 😃
Sitcom Goku: "Of course you already know the answer, my beloved son.......Nope"
*Laughter and applause from the audience*
How the fuck you made me laugh with this
@@benjaminandres3987 Because you can see it in your mind
Soooo DBZ Abridged goku?
@@benjaminandres3987 because it's funny lol
Recorded laughter and applauses
I laughed so hard when Master Roshi said "when your my age, you'll be draggin your ballz around if you don't have pants on." God, I loved that show.
That was a good one, one of the greats. But I cried when Master Roshi had the cancer scare episode in "farewell, old pa pt 2"
I remember that one. It got me good.
OVERATED JOKE, how about goku’s joke that took 9 episodes to finish?
@@Toonlol I hated that season. It only started picking up again when they went on holiday to namekville.
@@diaryofanaddict9637 that season was underrated, if that season didn’t exist, master Roshi would continue to be unfunny, like his humor was upgraded that season
I can see Krillin as Kramer… running into Goku’s house completely unexpected and freaking out about something very insignificant like how the grocery store was out of mangos.
Trunks and 18 look exactly how I'd imagine a 90's live action version of them.
Everyone else looks 80's
Definitely Trunks
@@Lordgaga160 well the 80's style still kept on in the early 90's. So that makes sense.
there is something seriously wrong with number 18's ear
and Krillin looks like a normal white dude, but still 100% Krillin lol.
The episode where Piccolo took Gohan to his prom was the best. A true coming of age episode for both the series, and the audience.
Lol. This comment will drive people insane in a few years.
LMAO 🤣🤣🤣
The nostalgia hits… every time.
😂
Dude I remember it still watching with my family.
The craziest thing is these characters actually look like the cartoon version of DBZ
Rip Akira Toriyams.... a hero who is now one with the legendary Dragon.
You will always be missed but never forgotten
I love the idea of Raditz showing up in the pilot episode and then never being mentioned again for the rest of the series.
But still being in the intro forever until his scene is quietly cut, and you find out five years after the show ended that there was a contract dispute between the actor and the production company lol
Raditz would be the Judy Winslow of DBZ 😂
@@cha0sniper brilliant 😂😂😂
True
He’d be like Richie Cunningham’s older brother.
Yamcha and Raditz looking like they coulda been an 80s wrestling tag team.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Razor Ramon and his buff bro.
@@chronicle_4
Scott Hall is the firsy thing I thought of when I saw Raditz
Krilin looks kinda....
🤣🤣🤣. That’s brilliant
I love how they always mate chichi look older but bulma is a lot older than chi chi 😂
Surgery
@@gregoriovazquez581
Actually, Bulma uses the dragon balls annually to stay youthful.
Yes, that’s actually canon.
I will say above all and all ethical questioning aside, the way AI handles the hairstyles for the most part along with the various Saiyan armor it generated is epic and I would say that future productions with aspirations to bring DragonBall to life should at least take notes from that aspect.
Videl: Gohan we're in so much trouble! The principal told us to bring our dads to school tomorrow. Gosh this is gonna be so embarrassing
Gohan: It is trouble. I'll never find Mr. Piccolo in time!
(laughing track)
This comment is so wholesome. You win today
It’s sad that comment is so fucking true.
It's easier to find Piccolo than Goku though 🤣
Goku : I am going to king Kai's place to bring his sus milk🥛.
Gohan: "I sure hope Mister Piccolo makes it in time..)
*Goku shows up instead. The crowd hoots and hollers*
Gohan: (Ohhh no... What is HE doing here?!?)
Goku: "Hey Gohan! Piccolo told me you had a parents thing today! He said I should really show up because it's important or something!"
*Alternate line...*
"Hey! It's me, GOKU!"
Master Roshi played by Robin Williams would have been the funniest thing ever.
Robin was pretty good at being perry too. 🤣
Facts 💯💯💯💯 R.I.P. TO LEGEND. Immediately who I thought about lol
Nah, man, he's too pure to play the pervy sensei. 😆
@@shizukagozen777 not really. But kinda, because Roshi is overboard levels of perv.
Well there was that time he was played by Joel Gray in Remo Williams and that's not far off.
Tbh this is the most accurate real life depiction of dbz ever. Specially the eyes feel so accuratly real while still looking the same like the anime
Ever seen DBZ Light of Hope? It's free on CZcams and it's amazing.
It’s actually not lol
Majority of these characters are inaccurate except the androids, trunks, bulma, nappa, hercule and chichi
@@HolyApples771 Yeah, considering half of them are Japanese or Chinese lol
Real talk: Jesse Ventura as Nappa is spot-on casting.
holy shit lmao
Actually it does kinda look like Jesse Ventura now that you mention. Hell I think that Ventura would make a good Hercule if he has a wig.
"You think you can beat the great Nappa?
...
THINK AGAIN!"
Hercule looks perfect lmao
Damn i thought i was clever hahaha
The AI made a legit attempt on everyone except Freeza. By the time it got to Freeza it was just like "meh whatever"
The 80s freiza fits.
Frieza looks like from a japanese super sentai show.
It's Mecha Frieza if he was a super sentai villain.
I think it's a decent realistic take on It's his first form.
Frieza: Guest Starring. Lol!
This is actually absolutely amazing! 😂🔥👏👏👏
Roshi is pure gold and my boi Trunks looks so dope. Dragonball Forever
“Hey Chi chi?”
“Yeah?”
“I’m hungry.”
“You just ate.”
*Audience claps and starts laughing*
Piccolo seems like that one obligatory wise mascot creature that lives in the garage and disappears whenever Gohan isn't there lol
a Wilfred parody with Gohan and Piccolo would be absolutely hilarious
This was so needed .
Wow son. A.I. art creation has come a long way since it's inception.
Piccolo looks like hes in an anime convention 😂
raditz : "ah kakarot, my dear brother, finally i found- wait why are you still a child ?"
goku : "i don't know who you are but could you please not speak to my son"
raditz : "ah so you are kakarot, wait where's you tail ?"
goku : "i removed it long ago, and stop calling me a carot"
*the audience start laughing*
Best one yet🌟
Comedy gold🏅🎖
You dont anything about real family of sayian....
The funny thing is that in italian, Kakarot it's Kaarot (stupid old dubs) and it's more similar to Carota (italian) than Carrot about the pronunciation, lol
This was awesome the moment I heard the Family Matters theme Lol! Good stuff, thank you!
I was expecting an episode lol
this was still great
“Hey! It’s me Goku!” *Crowd goes insane everytime*
God, if this series existed in a parallel universe I would watch it all day, Krillin made me explode with laughter, and Master Roshi made my nose bleed with his appearance similar to Santa Claus
Kilin reminds me of quack Mayer from family guy... 😂 😂
I can't imagine if dbz become a family sitcom..
Nice One
Looking like santa Claus 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀
Yo Krillin buried me, imagine if he was actually the 🐐 in this universe, handing out constant fades 😂
Dave Lettermen as Roshi
I love how they got Carl Brutananadilewski to play as Nappa in this show. Easily my favorite character
Raditz and Nappa look like the comedy relief
That Raditz is just...wow.
Your soul shall be mine.
@@iamyourworstnightmare-rh6zfThis had me chuckling like a goblin
Presenting Mr Satan right when the piano hits is oddly hilarious for some reason 🤣🤣🤣
0:52 Raditz is so Amazing look, He is the Best Character
I needed this today! 🤣
Honestly, Raditz looks like a great dude to have a beer with
The chill uncle raditz, he looks like he'd be a vibe to hang out with.
I love the way the Saiyan armor looks in this. Also Frieza's entire design.
Thou this design looks like to Jaco rather than Frieza.
His design looks awful
Gives a 90s vibe
Amazing!
Yamcha made the cut.
When you start your day and you find something so good which brings smile in your face, that same feeling.
Gohan: "Hey Krillin, Where's my dad?"
Krillin: "I just saw Piccolo outside training."
*Audience Laughs*
Chichi: "Goku, You never do any romantic gestures for me!"
Goku: "Romantic Jesters? Like those Jokesters from medieval court?"
*Audience Laughs*
Vegeta: "That clown Kakarot is such an idiot!"
*Audience Laughs and Cheers*
Something tells me. that this is how Akira Toriyama really sees his characters.
100 percent
Considering toriyama enjoys comedy much more than dramas, you got a point here
@@carlosavalos6468 when did he say that
Well Goku would be portrayed by Jackie Chan since that's what he envisioned
@@dylanbuchanan6511 in multiple interviews in the 90s. That's why he didn't want to create bardock backstory a long time ago (he considered that story too sad for his manga) but recently he did it due to presure of the fans. Also, characters such as majinbu or bills are Who better represents the kind of writer toriyama really is. He loves making gags and comedy in general
One of the best things I’ve watched on CZcams in years
Am done lol great video!! 😂
Trunks is literally brendan fraser in his good days 🤣
*Rami Malek*
Let's be real after what he's been through Trunks could use a sitcom life for a minute, also I lost it at guest starring Frieza
Looks incredible
Patrick Warburton as Raditz is now my favorite headcanon.
Damn a 90's dragon ball adaptation sounds like it could actually be a good movie
"TV Series"
Dragon Ball IS 90s
@@tentaplayz3691 and 80s
@@myristicina. It exists. There was one made in the 80s. It was either Japanese or Chinese.
god this is just pure fire also made me realize just how much of dbz actually was a family sitcom XD AMAZING
Trunks is perfect as well!
Nailed it with brandon frasier and trunks
I feel like I’ve seen episodes but I know I haven’t? Seeing these pics make you imagine scenes you’ve never seen
Hugo Weaving as Vegeta is perfect.
Same thoughts 🤣
This. I was looking exactly for this comment. Take my upvote.
@Amanda Fessler they should have added Mr.Anderson a.k.a. Neo 🤣
Mister Kakarot. Surprised to see me?
No, we knew you were coming.
Then you're aware of it.
Of what?
Our connection. We're both of Saiyan blood.
Yes. Raditz explained it all to me.
Ah, well shit that ruins my entire speech.
@@Yonkage-ik5qb Oh I got one.
*Vegeta Smith:* I'm not here because I'm free. I'm here because I'm not free. There's no escaping power, no denying pride for as we both know, without pride we would not exist. It is pride that created us, pride that connects us, pride that pulls us, that guides us, that drives us; it is pride that defines, pride that binds us. I'm are here because of you, Kakarot. I'm here to take from you what you tried to take from me... my Saiyan PRIDE!!!! *Powers up*
Nappa: Vegeta, what does the scouter say about his power level?
Audience: Ooooooh....
Vegeta: It's over 9000!
Audience: WOOOOOOO! *claps*
Goku "Kame ..."
Audience "he ll gonna do it!"
Goku "... ME Ha Me..."
Audience "😱"
Goku: "HA!!!!!!!! 🎇"
Audience: 💨💨💨💨👻
Lmao
This video has the most accurate live action characters than other videos
Trunks, Yamcha, 17, 18, Nappa, Bulma, Raditz and Tien actually look so cool
Only one that really didnt work for me was Chi-Chi's age.
She would work for the Saiyaman era stuff with teen/adult Gohan but looked too old, especially compared to Bulma and Gohan.
*Chi Chi:* Goku! How were you able to get dinner ready in time for our anniversary!?
*Goku:* Muffin Button.
(Audience laugh track)
Okay I GENUINELY would bust a gut laughing at this if it were real
@@dylanaruto20 I probably would too.
I’d yell ‘TFS REFERENCE’ at the top of my fucking lungs, then get the shit slapped outta me XD
excellent
Roshi, nappa, hercule, and android 18 and 17 were the best ones
This with TFS doing the jokes like they did in the abridged version would be comedy gold 😂
That would be GOD tier 😂
They so shouldve added an obnoxiously loud laughing track for every genuinely hilarious joke they put in.. that wouldve been amazing
Nappa: "Hey Vegeta, what's the power level of Kakarot?"
Vegeta: "It's Over 9000"
(track of surprised people)
Goku (looking to the camera) : "Oops, i think I trained too much"
(people laughing track)
Top comment. ❤
XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
I've been seeing a lot of these High Quality Photoshop videos, or whatever the term is called for this, and I don't know how you guys do it. Technology has really advanced.
A Dragon Ball sitcom would actually be awesome, especially if they applied the martial arts elements to it. That'd fill a niche which somehow hasn't been filled yet, and would make it really stand out.
According the director and creator of this show:
"We were just finishing the season 6 with Goku going away to another place, and wanted to end it there. Of course, the networks wanted to have more, so I pitched the idea of having an adventure with Gohan. However, the fans wanted more Goku and I grew frustrated as the actor wanted to try something else, instead of playing the character, ending up being type casted. So, we came up with the infamous Buu season which finally got the show cancelled and well....we all went to our separate ways. It was fun, but....yeah...just couldn't handle the drama anymore."
Piccolo looks like a person cosplaying him at a convention.
Ah I was expecting the Full House theme song, and was pleasantly surprised by this 💎
The androids actually look awesome!
This was the best ai art I've seen for DragonBall. I would like to see Dragon Ball as an 80 chinese fantasy
Get up, get up!
nappa looks like Jesse Ventura and Yamcha looks like Scott Hall. 10/10
We need scripts written
I thought the same thing about Jesse Ventura being Nappa. Raditz looks like a younger Mel Gibson.
🤣🤣🤣
my boy krillin and piccolo were did nasty😭😭
This video is really hilarious hahaha
1:16 Frieza was the funniest character of the show. Too bad he left it at the beginning of Season 3, just as we were being introduced to his family...
He would be the Newman from Seinfeld of the show...
Well, don’t even get me started on Majin Buu. That’s where the show really jumped the shark, and probably why it ended soon after.
LMAO frieza looks like a power ranger
Well, to be fair, his brother WAS cooler.
Frieza as newman "Hello Monkeys"
Goku as seinfeld"hello frieza"
Now this is what a true live action adaptation looks like 😉
The **GLORIOUS** mullet on Raditz, tho!😂
good stuff, I'd like to see Pokemon characters like this.
My man Roshi would be hilarious in a live action sitcom
I remember watching this as a kid and thinking "man the casting for this show was damn near perfect they only missed the mark on 3 characters. Frieza who looks like a villain stolen directly from power rangers, Bulma who looks like a 2020s onlyfans model and Piccolo who looks like a life size display action figure at comic con"
Ed Edd n Eddy 🥲...what song is this btw? I know he also sings the one to full house
@@trevor2830 Family Matters.
You remember thinking - as a kid - presumably decades ago if this was on in the 1990s - that Bulma looks like a 2020s onlyfans model? How would you know what a "2020s onlyfans model" was and looked like then? Did you borrow Trunks's time machine?
@@medexamtoolsdotcom well maybe because he's seeing it now?
Then bulma would be a only fan model
Oh my god. It's beautiful
Raditz looks like a familiar CZcamsr...
Love how bulma is in her 20's and chi chi is in her 60's even though bulma is older than chi chi
I think Bulma used the dragon balls to make herself younger again so she can stay appealing to Vegeta.
I dunno that Chi Chi still looks good
I like the episode where Goku and Gohan join a Saiyan fraternity.
"You think I am a sellout why? Cause I am half human? Cause my tail got cut off? Cause I studied hard my whole life? Cause I don't want to go around destroying worlds. You told me we need to stick together, but you don't even know what that means. If you ask me you are the real sellout."
"Hey Nappa, you don't speak for the rest of us, I am going to kick you outta here."
"Just let me grab my stuff Vegeta I-"
"Oh you won't need them where you're going,"
*Vegeta blasts Nappa out through the Frat house roof*
"Y'know Vegeta you could have probably just kicked hin ou-"
"You want some of this Kakarrot!"
Yamcha looked like Scott Hall somewhat, Hercule looks like Rick Rude, Brendan Frasier is Trunks, Chi chi is Michelle Yeoh, and Bulma looks like Keira Knightley and Billie Eillish had a baby together.
Trunks,Bulma and 18 look absolutely amazing
I usually write my own music for these videos, but you can’t beat the nostalgia of this song EDIT: Had to change the song (dang CZcams!), but in future videos I'll write my own theme!
@@bubbawiggles who better than “The Body” to play such an icon?
Darn it, now you’ve made me want a DBZ sitcom.
Where was Majin Buu
Make a version with your song. I'm over this song being used
I love it- i need it to see it becoming reality!
The only objection i have is for Tien's design: he looks like he is way older.
I’ve seen a number of these now and they all have used the Family Matters theme. And it fits. 😂
Honestly this would be amazing
Yamcha out here looking like Scott Hall 💀💀
I wouldn't miss the hilarious and pervert gags of Master Roshi 🤣
Played by Robin Williams
Trunks and the Androids are spot on! and Guest Starring Frieza 🤣
I wonder what zarbon and dodoria would have look like!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Lord Frieza!!!!!🥶
Your words remind me to soldier boy in solid gold
What did I just stumble across this is what I call weird time for bed😭😭
This is pretty lit😁😁
18 looks damn good
Now we need a dedicated group of folks to give us an episode 1.
Dang that was good, I'd watch it!
The Androids 17 and 18 turned out fantastic. 🤯😁👍
Ok are we not going to talk about how adorable baby Gohan was lol
