Check after watching this video:)
Miss Animelon, you're spoiling us
Don't forget there is an EPILOGUE for ep60 (like a part 4 or something)
slowly climing the ranking of reactors
WOHOOOO What a surprise thank you ❤
I can't overstate how well they handled Gohans transformation at the end. Absolute S-tier.
Not only that but the remix they did of his transformation theme that he had from the Japanese Sub w/English lyrics = Also total S-tier.
@@xDinomanx to this day the song is in my playlist, i sing it in the shower sometimes lmao they did it so much justice. i was younger when i watched it as it came out and i cried at the transformation LMAO
It's easily the best version of that iconic scene
I love how they kept it serious too
Not Z-Tier? 😉😁 hehe
“I have been finding God throughout this entire experience.” I laugh way too hard at that every time😂
I spit my water at that scene! But news flash cell wasn't listening but I'm pretty sure Dende was high enough 😂
same to both lol
God was also getting high.
@@theperson8539 😂😂😂😂
My favorite thing about the transformation reveal shot is the tears ascending upward by the force of his aura serving as a visual metaphor for the rising power just unleashed. Definitive W for the 90's era Toei animation staff.
its so sad how the english dub screwed that scene so bad. im a much bigger fan of the japanese and dbza version. but hey, the english dub being trash is nothing new....
@@marcosdheleno Everytime there is an argument about watching dub or sub I use this as an example. I just don't trust dub to not screw up again
@@marcosdheleno I like how dbza can be considered a legitimate dub.
@@marcosdheleno Watched german dub my whole life, watching your english one is quite an update though
Wait really. That was the first fight I watched from this, Dbz English dub. I thought it was really well done. I’ve seen all transformations. I think the Japanese was the best, but I still think the dub was good.
You never heard the song in english because they actually commissioned it specifically for these scene.
They really put everything into this last episode.
I really love Android 16 speech in this and how it's less about "unleash your hidden power" like in the original and more about the dangers of the rigid pacifism when you need to act. Yes, violence isn't a good way to solve problems but standing on the sidelines and doing nothing to stop sth evil because "violence isn't the answer" is not what you should do, because like 16 said, you're simply letting the evil triumph. It's a lesson that Gohan needed to learn.
I don't agree with it. violence actually isn't the answer, it's just a failure of foresight and diplomacy
@@kingmasterlord Good Luck dealing with people who arent interested in diplomacy and use their foresight to exploit exactly that.Its just naiv.
good men are kind but dangerous. What that means is they are capable of protecting, but have the restraint not to be violent unnecessarily
@@kingmasterlord Imagine you see your friend brutally attacked and he falls hurt. If you don't start fighting back with the aggressive attacker your friend will be brutally beaten. Are you telling me you're just gonna stand aside and let it happen because "violence isn't the answer"?
I mean... the one thing bothering me with #16' speech is that it kind of seems it never applied to Gohan until the last 15 minutes? Gohan never had a problem fighting when there was no other option - he didn't *like* it, but he'd do it nonetheless. He never had any problem jumping into the fray against way stronger enemies during previous arcs. But here it kind of feels the writers changed Gohan's character in order to justify the speech.
Gotta LOVE the Linkin Park references exchanged between Cell and Gohan.
"One Step Closer to the edge"
"Everything you say to me"
"In the end, it didn't even matter"
TFS did such an amazing job with paying homage to DBZ AND its fans.
Especially if you grew up watching DBZ "amvs" like me. They all had Linkin Park and Offspring songs. One of the most famous had "One Step Closer". That was way before CZcams, even before fast, broadband internet. We'd download these videos from obscure anime websites and would take hours doing so, LOL.
This first part alone got me super emotional especially after the 1 year wait that fans had to endure in between Episode 59 and Episode 60
This is by far the best episode they ever did on a dramatic level.They absolutely topped any other DBZ version for dramatic effect.
fun fact: the names of the Cell Jrs aside from Vegeta Junior Junior are all the people who have voiced Cell including Takahata
Ok but why are so many English VA's for Cell? It is because were was a lot of dub teams?
@@artemsgameschannel727 indeed!
So was Damien a reference to Daemon Clarke then? why not just call the Cell Jr Daemon then? 🤔
@@saphcal because his name is Dameon, not Daemon
@@funkybunko oh wow i saw it spelled the other way for YEARS maybe its the dyslexia. im blaming the dyslexia.
This episode right here. THIS episode is a glorious monument to why people love Team Four Star. Did they cut out some of the nonsense? Absolutely. Did they add funny jokes? Again, the answer is yes. But they also kept the emotional moments and the dramatic tension that this scene required. They KNOW when to make a joke and when to play the scene straight. And I love it.
Absolutely agree. I almost think they might have done it better and more epic than the original, they certainly made Gohan more badass. And that 16 speech was better too. Heck, it even made Mr.Satan better. He was rightly terrified, horrifically ridiculously outclassed, and he was still brave enough to help when he was called upon. He might be considered a joke compared to the other characters, but he's still capable of true courage.
Ok?
It's because, aside from being amazingly talented, they love the "original release" as much as any of us. So they know what shouldn't be touched.
I'm gonna die on that hill: Gohan turning SSJ2 for the first time is the coolest moment in all of DBZ.
It was my introduction to it, so it is the most emotional moment. But I gotta give the coolest to Vegeta and his sacrifice. I wish the Buu saga would end there.
"There you stand, the good man doing nothing." chills. violence isn't right, but pacifism isnt always the answer.
Exactly. Good people doing nothing is the reason Evil triumphs, even in real life and not only dramatic stories.
I'd go a step further. Violence isn't good, but when the alternatives are worse, it can be right.
Violence isn't the answer. violence is the question, and the answer is "yes"
"VIOLENCE DOESN'T SOLVE ANYTHING! EXCEPT FOR ALL THE THINGS IT TOTALLY F*CKING DOES!"
I would think a diplomat a pacifist over a priest, one does not participate in violence but the other disapproves enough to stop it before it happens
Gohan reads the intro card because his innocence dies this episode.
his unwillingness to fight cell also dies in this episode.
@@TheUltimateRare if you wanna look at it like Kenshiro from Fist of the North Star, Cell also died in this part of this episode :) "Omae wa mou shindeiru!"
@@saphcal i guess so.
If you want more reason to cry at this scene:
MasakoX said he was in a bit of a slump while recording this. He felt like he just wasn't hitting the SS2 scream quite right and was worried he'd disappoint so many people who were hyped for this specific moment. But when TFS premiered this at a con, the audience went nuts and Masako was near tears from the love
Nooooooo. It was so great though woww. Yea that’s so crazy and sad to hear. Glad everyone showered him with support:)
I'm a 35-year-old man who doesn't cry a lot, but this brings me to tears every time I watch it. DBZA is, as far as I'm concerned, DBZ's ultimate dub, although unofficial. It came into my life at a time I was struggling with depression and it helped so much I couldn't begin to describe. Never laughed so hard at anything, especially during the "Freezer" saga.
This moment is emotional to me for a lot of reasons, firstly because I was already emotionally attached to DBZA and the hiatus made the hype that even greater. Secondly, this was actually what got me into DBZ when I was 12, Goku's and then Gohan's fight against Cell was the first thing I watched, and I got instantly hooked.
But then I started growing up and the low quality Brazilian dub started sounding dumber and dumber to me (I'm from Brazil), and, having the privilege of the Internet since I was a kid, I learned English and decided to watch the FUNimation Dub, which is far superior to the Brazilian one, and watched the entirety of DBZ on it. That fact made finding DBZA even better, because someone who never watched the Funimation dub would never get many of the jokes.
23:30 the silence... people being speechless after this ending is the best statement on how TFS did a great job on last scene.
I love almost all of 16's lines.
"Now if I'm not mistaken, you were looking for a kaboom?"
"If I said no, would you still-"
He is hilarious, and you will quote everything he says.
Absolutely loved you pointing out cells empathy towards Yamcha, got the linkin park reference and your emotions throughout this entire episode 😭 Great reaction!
there were two back-to-back linkin park references and im not sure if she got both or not. She got the "In The End" one but right before it Gohan was referencing "One Step Closer" also by linkin park.
Cell's empathy to Yamacha was a way for TFS to make up for dogging him all series.
@@alannorris3819I'm glad they made the short where he basically broke baseball for being too good, so they paid him a billion dollars to retire. Baseball owner "Yamcha, all you do is win" Yamcha 🥲😊
13:38 FUN FACT:
All the Cell Jrs. are named after Cell voice actors:
Norio Wakamoto (Japanese)
Dameon Clarke (Funimation)
Travis Willingham (Video games)
Curtis Arnot (TFS)
Dale Wilson (Ocean dub)
Jonathan Cook (Final Bout for PS1)
Oh and Vegeta Jr Jr
The ending of part 1 is one of the most masterful I've seen in any media. The fact that they manage to bring up so much emotion in a parody is incredible, jokes are generally really bad at keeping the tone consistent enough for the emotions to build up that high (the MCU knows something about that xD).
It works in part because they don't hesitate to just keep a scene of someone standing there and transforming for literally 1 minute and 40 seconds, almost 10% of the whole video just for this scene with no joke and no action. I also like how for once, the reaction shots that DBZ is famous for using as ridiculous filler actually serve the scene in this case. Of course a lot of the credit definitely goes to the original soundtrack that they remixed here, it's perfect for this scene. The animators who got the idea for the tears going upside were also genius here cause that part was not in the manga.
And it's not even nostalgia for the original japanese music, I've read but not watched DBZ before watching this so I did not know the song.
The song at the end, over Gohan's transformation was performed by Lawrence Simpson, aka MasakoX, who voices Goku and Gohan in Abridged.
Also, yes, there were Linkin Park references:
Gohan says "I'm just one step closer to the edge, and I'm about to...", to which Cell interrupts "Everything you say to me... is pissing me off", both lines referencing the song One Step Closer. Soon after, Cell says "And in the end, it didn't even matter", a line from In the End, a song used many times for Anime Music Videos with footage from this fight.
So TFS did an English cover of the song Tamashii Tai Tamashii. I grew up on the Faulconer track, but i have to say the original jaapnese song was definitely awesome and their cover brought it to life in my language. Man, watching this final episode with you is going to be bonkers and this whole journey with you has been bonkers.
Out of all the different versions of Gohan's transformations, this one made me cry. It's the realization that Goku and 16 expected an 11 year old child to commit murder.
to be fair this was also a classic case of there being no alternative. as the saying goes (and 16 referenced this) all it takes for evil to flourish is for good people to do nothing. gohan was the good person doing nothing. is his mentality understandable? absolutely, as you said, hes 11. nobody should be put in a position like that, much less a child. but he was the only person able to stop cell, and cell was not willing to be talked down, or stopped by any other means.
basically, violence is never a good solution, but sometimes all the alternatives are worse, and its simply a case of the least bad option available to you.
16's words rang true though. Weak people cant afford to call themselves pacifists, they are just harmless.
The Dubbed version with Falconer music is iconic because of nostalgia but in reality, it misses the point. In the dubbed version Gohan's transformation is played as an epic moment of a character releasing their power to save their friends.
In the original Japanese version it is about a child being pushed so far he snaps. It is actually a sad moment and TFS captured that.
Its the tears falling upwards for me that gets me everytime
Isn't it soaring?
@@artistanthony1007 Like a bird 😢
I love how when Piccolo is yelling at Goku, when Goku asks everyone else their thoughts, Cell just shouts up to him while beating Gohan ‘No one’s perfect!’ 🤣
except for Cell of course.
The fact that we originally had to wait an entire year before this episode came out was absolute torture but the payout when we finally got it was so beautiful & definitely worth the wait
Put a bit of a new twist on "The day of fate has fin'ly come"
I always tear up a bit during the transformation. The speech, the music, the yell and Gohan's tears floating up always sends shivers down my spine. It always hits me hard. Seeing that made me so happy I was able to see this series through
Cell is the ONLY being that ever lookout for Yamcha. And I find it hilarious.
You were not kidding about Gohan being your favorite character.
You are going OFF on this man.
To be fair, this is also probably my favorite version of Gohan as well. :)
Edit: You're also spot on about seeing so many transformation of Gohan transforming for the first time and how GOOD this one is.
I actually still get tears forming just from how amazing they did it. I also kinda like the angle they spun with Cell and 16 calling him a coward instead of kinda beating around the bush.
I mean, the original has 16 basically telling Gohan that it's okay to fight and kill evil people, but this version really hammers it home: Being a pacifist in a situation where people are being slaughtered by a villain does not make you a good person, it only makes you a coward.
I think that's sorta the exact speech that Gohan needed to hear to not only control his power, but also keep it going. I'd be willing to bet the reason he kept losing his incredible power was because his pacifist nature would take over. He'd snap, and then he'd think, "Oh man, what I'm doing is violent and bad," but 16 has just finished explaining to him that he needs to fight now. Really cool moment in the original, but even cooler in Abridged in my opinion.
Ever since you said you're a Gohan fan, I think I speak for all of us when I say we couldn't wait to see your reaction to this episode.
I can only imagine how amazing seeing that scene at the end must've felt for you.
Gohan going Super Saiyan 2 for the first time, still gives me chills. It was absolutely incredible.
Fun Easter egg, the Cell Juniors are named after his voice actors
I love DBZA so much for exactly what you talked about at the end. It's not just that it's funny, well acted, and captures the characters and plot well. But on top of all of that, it has a deep respect for moments in the original that were serious, somber, or downright cool. Gohan SSJ2, Goku SSJ, Vegeta's final flash, Trunks finding Gohan dead, and so many others. The comedy always makes room for moments that deserve it. And from all the details you talked about in this scene to the way the actors tribute the dub VAs, it's so obvious that a lot of thought and care goes into it.
19:39 "Was that a Linkin Park reference?" Actually, yes. The band was a popular choice for AMVs back in the halcyon days of CZcams and got used quite a few times for DBZ, so they threw in a cheeky reference to its legacy. Chester had also passed away about a year before this episode was posted, so it was kind of a tribute to him at the same time.
Just putting this out there
The song
"Day of Fate ~Spirit vs Spirit~"
is on Spotify under TeamFourStars name
The Jonathon Young cover of Day of Fate is also amazing. It isn't melancholic, but way more intense.
Man. Gohan’s tears for the fallen, for being pushed past his breaking point, for being forced to become the warrior he didn’t want to have to be. All that, and then they dissolve away as he accepts both the responsibility and his own fate as the savior of Earth, damn this scene was good in the original and great here!!!!
“There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man.”
I love that book so much, Kvothe love 💕
Kvooooothe!
Quick Fun Fact: all the Cell Juniors are named after voice actors who have played Perfect Cell previously, including Curtis 'Takahata101' Arnott.
"I love that shot with Gohan crying, with the tears, and then they slowly go away..."
That's called visual metaphor. The ability to communicate a message or an idea through visuals. Something I wish people did a lot more of.
It's stuff like this that put DBZA head and shoulders above all the other abridged series. They knew when to be funny and clown on the source material and when to treat it with the true gravity it deserves. Even though I think they ended it at the right time, I still miss it so much!
And also, the sheer effort to re-do the song and translate it!
Everything, every word that comes out in this chapter, every sentence, every speech, every dialogue... is SO TOP NOTCH IT HURTS. And then the special cover of the last song is so, so good (look up Jonathan Young's cover).
Fun fact, the names of all the Cell Jr.'s(save Vegeta Jr. Jr.) are the first names of various voice actors who've portrayed Cell over the years.
I love that they play Gohan's transformation completely straight. It's so good. Also, I love that your reaction is just awe. It's clear you really do love DBZ and Gohan specifically. So glad you got to see this episode finally. It's so good and it's clear how much you loved it.
I have loved watching your reactions to dbz abridged. I've watched a lot of people but your commentary shows how you already loved the original series just like a lot of us, and it feels like a watch party with everyone in this community, even more so now that we've finally come to the 3 part ending. Thanks for your videos, after all this we'll miss your "sparking!"s
I found Piccolo's approval of Goku's plan quite perplexing because it was a stupid plan. Had he and Gohan come out first and killed Cell straight away, that would have been 10 times better than whatever mumbo jumbo Goku did concoct.
Gohan going SSJ2 for the first time is probably the most epic moment in the whole anime. And the fact that TFS did such a good job and treated it with such respect, just shows the love that this series was made with. Speaks volume to the care and love these people had for DBZ
The 10 seconds of silence at the end says it all. I will always love "Red-Flag" Gohan.
I genuinely teared up when it closed in onto Gohan with his tears floating upwards until there are none left.
It's like his newfound determination, taking form in the burst of power, is literally wiping his tears away. That's the peak of the show for me :D
I can get why Goku miscalculated. He never took his son to be a coward. His whole life he was surrounded by brave fighters, heck even Krillen and Yamcha were brave. That and the fact the lived alone in a jungle full of wild Animals when he was the same age as Gohan without any sign of fear.
That english dub of gohans original japanese transformation is so hype. Especially it being sung by gohans VA here...aw man. Awwww man
I'm 90% sure they had the song made for the occasion. That's why you gotta love TFS, such commitment...
Every time Gohan goes through a mountain, Piccolo yells about someone being dead.
Fun fact: the Cell Juniors are all (except Vegeta Jr Jr) named after Cell's voice actors: Norio Wakamoto (original Japanese VA), Dameon Clarke (Funimation dub), Travis Willingham (several video games), Dale Wilson (Ocean dub), Johnathan Cook (DBGT: Final Bout), and Curtis "Takahata101" Arnott (TFS).
And yeah, uh.. I tear up every single time I see Gohan transform in this episode. I genuinely agree, I think their version takes all the best aspects of the official versions and becomes the ultimate version of the scene.
Honestly, Yamcha probably could join the "done literally nothing wrong" club here.
Yep. Yamcha, Tien, and Piccolo. Everyone else messed up lol
I love it how the irony of when Cell says, "No one's perfect!" causes Goku to realize his mistake 😂
Team 4 star admitted in one of thier monthly updates why it took so long between episode 59 to episode 60 part 1. They got the rights for the song and got it translated and sung to be put in the transformation scene. Team 4 star wanted to do that scene perfectly. The music, editing, writing, voice over work and much more was done to perfection, you could tell they were real fans and wanted to do "right" as they say to DBZ and thier adbridged series, you could tell when watching it this was the ending that they wanted for thier series. And I can still say to this day, I think it's the best transformation scene ever to be done in anything Dragon Ball related, though the ultra instinct transformation was amazing as well and Gohans "new" transformation was something else in DBS Super Hero. It was truly an end of era.
Major credit to you for appreciating the MASTERY they displayed executing this ending. Still can't believe how well they did this
Gohan. Listen to me. There are some foes who cannot be reasoned with. You are allowed to fight on the side of justice. Seize upon your anger. Wield it like a weapon. I understand your reluctance, but holding it in is pointless. Gohan, I love the animals and everything about nature. Protect them. For me.....they need you”
Remember, Gohan got beaten for a year while we waited for this episode..hahaha
And Cell was thinking of Goku the whoooolllllle time.
I’ve always loved the fact that 16 was specifically not someone Gohan knew well. They’re going to make a pretty good joke about it in the next part. Though for me, because 16 isn’t realistically a close family or friend lost like Krillin for Goku, the triggering rage is comes from knowing that if he had broken free sooner there is at least one death he could have prevented. It’s not the vengeance it’s the responsibility.
One of the weird things watching people's reactions to this episode has taught me is that most of said reactors are younger than me, because none of them catch that Looney Tunes reference 16 makes. ("Where's the kaboom?! There was supposed to be a Cell-shattering kaboom!" is a reference to Marvin the Martian always trying to blow up Earth and being foiled, then saying "Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an Earth-shattering kaboom!")
Also, I'm sure someone else has probably already mentioned it somewhere in the comments, but the names of the Cell Jr.'s are all names of people who have voiced Cell in various dubs. Aside from Vegeta Jr. Jr., obviously. :P
The final scene, with Gohan transforming, is where you can find the true Gohan fans among the reactors, because they are the only ones who truly appreciate it and see it for what it is. It's a bittersweet moment, because he's been forced to give in and do exactly what he least wanted to do. And he'd been forced to grow up, basically. It's a scene of a little boy becoming a man, and far too early. A lot of people claim to love Gohan and even say he's their favorite character, but they don't understand him at all. They see his rage moments and think it's cool, that he's a badass kid. But they don't like his actual character; they just like the moments where he's a badass, and they wish he'd be like that more. Basically, they want Goku but less goofy. It's honestly disrespectful to him as a character. It's always refreshing to see another person who loves Gohan for who he actually is, so kudos to you. :)
Fun facts time! TFS mentioned that the names of the Cell Jrs. are after the voice actors that gave voice to Cell in different dubs. And also, the song is 100% their creation, If I remember correctly, it was Kaiser who pushed for the song to be made, and they have this version, an instrumental and metal version on Spotify and YT.
Something I never realized until now: Remember when 16 said he was registering lighter? I forget exactly how many kilograms but THAT was the bomb!
The refrigerator is a reference to Indiana Jones 4 where Indy survives a nuclear explosion in a refrigerator.
Something that the commentary talks about when it comes to Gohan's transformation is something that not a lot of people pick up on:
Gohan's transformation is not a triumph, it's a tragedy. Gohan is not like his dad, he hates fighting. He hates violence in general, at least at this age. He's just not that sort of person. He doesn't fight out of a love for fighting, but as a reflex for protecting innocent people.
Goku fights with a smile on his face, relishing the challenge, and can stop at any moment he feels like. Gohan fights with either grim determination, or absolute fury and hatred. Goku fails to see just how painful and traumatic this whole experience is for him, and that Gohan's fighting fury doesn't come from a place of excitement or even fear, but from a place of pain and hatred, not until it is too late and Gohan turns into a vicious monster.
And for SuperKamiDende's sake, HE IS 11! How dare Goku turn his own son into what is effectively a child soldier?
Goku was wrong. Gohan is not the person to keep the planet protected, to dedicate himself to being a warrior. Sure, later he is more comfortable in fighting, but even then it's more of a casual hobby.
Gohan is a good person, he is kind and caring and intelligent, and loves to help people. But he is not a warrior, not like Goku or Vegeta or Piccolo or the rest in general. He doesn't like hurting people. Or rather, he doesn't WANT to hurt people, and he is afraid of letting himself like it.
yes the song is amazing with the tears and they go away and he gets focused and serious. Poetic
I know this has been said so many times, but this is one of the moments the show said... "You see TOEI, you're not dealing with the average abridged series anymore"
Funny little side note: Cell likes/is nice to Yamcha because, in the abridged series, he is the only Z-fighter that is not a part of cells biology, so he doesn't blame him for his creation
Team Four Star needs to surprise everyone and announce they will continue to do DBZ abridged. I think they would make the Buu saga ducking amazing!
There's a running gag on how cell loves yamcha if you haven't noticed its pretty great. Hes also the only one who's dna he doesn't have
1 thing I thought about with 16 and gohan. In the original, there were a few filler episodes after piccolo kidnapped gohan where gohan meets a little robot. They both get trapped in a cave and the robot sacrifices itself so gohan can get out and live. Not only is it filler, but I think most people either don't know about it or forgot. But I think 16 being a robot and gohan seeing his sacrifice brought back that memory on top of everything else.
“I don’t understand, where is the egg?” Hilarious!!!!😂
All these years later, TFS' version of 16's speech and Gohan transforming is just so damn amazing. It's so sad TFS got burnt out over all the bs they faced with copyright issues...
23:30 that stunned silence is exactly what I said too. Even all this time later, I can hardly believe how much _justice_ they did Gohan here. Hasn’t diminished with time either.
I love android 16 telling Gohan to "Grow Up you act as if your the only person suffering" God that sounds all too familiar 💯
Oh yeah, Melon, we ALL still turn into kids when Gohan goes Super Saiyan 2. :D
Even in my 40s, it still hits me the same.
Same here. I cried and I'm a 31 year old.man 😂 I brought me back to when I saw it as a kid and how intense that moment was for me as a 4th grader
This unironically is my favorite version of Gohan turning SSJ2
Finally here. Day of fate makes this my absolute favorite episode.
Abridged is a comedy parody of Dragon Ball Z with the storyline preserved. But even in parody, this Gohan transformation gives you goosebumps.
Those who watched it during the premiere had to wait a year for the 60th episode. Do you know what the pain was?
Hellsing Abridged fans: DO YOU?
10:33
Not that I'd ever actively recommend watching the film if you haven't already, but the fridge is in reference to the [metaphorical] shark jumping scene in Indiana Jones 4, where he survives a nuclear test by hopping into a lead lined fridge and gets flung *UNHARMED* away from Ground 0
I don't know if anyone else has said this, but apparently the names for the Cell Juniors are references to Cell voice actors, if i remember correctly. And one of them gave voice to sonic the hedgehog too, hence why he says "you're too slow!" To Krillin
TFS did DBZ so MUCH justice with the lines man =D
The Dragon ball kakorot game expands on the friendship between gohan and 16 and helps us understand why his death is what triggered gohans ssj2 transformation. Theres a whole bird watching side quest with 16 in game and its amazing. Also tfs did 16s speech better than actual cannon imo
This is why I watch reactions. I want to relive these feelings watching it in someone else’s face. That level of mind blown. Perfect.
girl you are well versed in this stuff and sharp. Good stuff. Love that because you understand everything thats happening you can truly appreciate it.
One of the highest rated comments explains that 16 encouraged Gohan to go SS J2. As a result, he causes cell to rage quit by blowing himself up. The only person who could have saved everybody was Goku causing himself to die.
So in a weird twisted way Android 16 did cause the death of Goku.
Every one of the Cell Juniors (minus Vegeta Junior Jr) is named after an actor who voiced Cell.
And so the bait and release with Gohan begun! powering him up to then making him job, a tradition in DBZ
Your reaction to the song at the end was everything I wanted in this video :)
I always identified with Gohan for this reason. Hard to anger but when he's angry they you better run.
When you make someone cry-level angry then you REALLY f'd up!
Gohan’s lesson is valuable to EVERYONE. It’s why I love DBZA
BTW the Cell Jr's are named after Cell's various voice actors. Dameon Clarke also does the legendary Handsome Jack from Borderlands 2, and Scar in Fullmetal Alchemist
No doubt up their with the original Japanese. The song and especially having no monologue makes this scene THAT much better. Props to TFS for giving us this beautiful moment.
I love Jimmy Firecracker. Definitely the best side side character
Rewatching these because i love your love for gohan, it's a true joy to watch.
Since episode 1 I have been waiting to see how you lose your mind completely when Day of Fate starts playing, and it has been worth it.

See you all in part 2!
