Speaking of 🤢 GT it was made for the PlayStation one game of the same name , and the fans didn’t like it because there was no fighting, so it got extend to include the baby saga and I don’t remember the name the dragons .
You guys should definitely do Dragon Ball Z Kai reactions
Hope they bring back death battle reaction
Please bring back Death Battle reactions!
Then you have HIFL.
Erik explaining that the narrator came back after being missing so long to say vegeta died, and then like 5-10 minutes later TFS's joke about it coming up is amazing. Fucking perfect mates.
The second he started explaining the narrator I was just itching for them to get to the alternative scenes just to see Erik turn 15 shades of red darker
@@artificialraspberify Man is a chameleon
I don’t remember that situation or had clarification on it. I never noticed and I’m surprised so many people were apparently confused by his death (considering what led up to it). Anyway, forgot about the “f-ing died” bit for that reason and did find it funny when it paid off here.
To clarify, Master Roshi’s Sister doesn’t bring people back from the dead persay, but she has clearance from the Guardian of Earth, to get clearance from King Yamma, to bring Goku back for a day. They kinda did this with Grandpa Gohan (Goku’s foster Dad) so Kid Goku could get his last goodbye with him.
It probably the best call back z did to original dragon ball.
It depends on the person because she is allowed to contract with people from Other World like Spike which are for more than 24 hours. 24 hrs appears to be the limit for anyone that’s not contracted to work as one of her 5 fighters
It's dragon ball, ppl do whatever the plot demands
@@darthcuckold1486and then we figure out the rules after the fact. That's half the fun of a fanbase is reconciling all the nonsense into a logic system that actually makes coherent sense
@@roxtechs It shocked me as much in Super when Goku was waiting for Freeza and he was doing the choreography of his last fight with Grandpa Gohan lol.
Someone pointed this out to me and it made me laugh so I share it with you all:
Bibidi: "I'm Bibidi, Son Babidi"
Vegeta: "That's stupid." Says Vegeta, Son of Vegeta, from the planet Vegeta X)
Also grandson of Vegeta and great grandson of Vegeta (since it’s confirmed that Vegeta is Vegeta IV)
@@thefabuloustrash05Trunks is technically Vegeta V, and Bulla is Vegeta VI
@@berfstormz9290 That's not how that works. Trunks and Bulla aren't Vegeta V and Vegeta VI because they would have to be *named* Vegeta in order to be Vegeta V and Vegeta VI.
@@Tormalinesome people can't be helped bro
@@brettvandermeer5297I read that as then secretly being named Vegeta as a "Saiyan name" of sorts, and that's such a Vegeta thing to do that I didn't question it...
I love Grant being the "fuck this guy" guy, especially because of his previous roles as the "yeah fuck this city" guy
"Yea, fuck Goku." Voice has perfect "My leg!"(from Spongebob) energy)
Grant by the way
He’s so smart and handsome
"And I'm Grant by the way."
It's very simple. Grant is smart and handsome. Grant fucks!
Vegeta announcing he's got nothing to prove is the greatest example of character growth in this whole show. Including when Gohan learned to dodge.
Only to immediately crumble when he hears Goku 😂
@@roxtechs I mean, look, you take an addict cold-turkey 'til they're clean and then dangle their fix in front of them, shit'll go sideways fast.
@@roxtechsVegeta has EVERYTHING to prove, just nothing he can justify proving using weak, harmless earthlings.
@@crowsenpai5625To be fair, Gohan was joining in, so it still shows that he respects Gohan enough to not crumble. It was Goku returning that pulled the pin on that grenade
I dunno, I think him using Krillin's name might be greater ;p
To clarify, Babidi said “Towa is gonna be pissed at me” referring to Towa from the Dragon Ball Xenoverse series. She is Dabura’s sister so that’s why she would be pissed at Babidi for letting him die.
I've played through the xenoverse games so many times and absorbed 0% of the story. I have no idea who Towa is.
@@ZeallustImmortal then why are you commenting? You’ve added absolutely nothing to this conversation. That was no help to anyone😭
@@BeyondDoesAnimeThey needed to prove they were real
@@seniorprrotm8163 did they though?!
@@BeyondDoesAnimeYou're just kidding. He knows you love him
the decision to make the kais racist was amazing 😂😂and it perfectly foreshadows zamasu
Effing morties....
It was that or calling them the N-word
Do what?
Ningen
Damn..Got mixed
Well played
Goku vs. Vegeta is basically that chess meme of "The smart kid not understanding how I'm beating him"/"Me, who's been eating the pieces when he's not looking."
In TFS yeah. Not exactly the same in regular though
@@errwhattheflipexcept in Super, it sums it up pretty well
Fun fact. Totally not Mark ask TFS to do Vegeta sacrifice. TFS has a bunch of bits and jokes they wanted to show. So it was the perfect opportunity to do the jokes they were planning and for people to realize how incredible Mark is
To be fair, Lani did it a few years ago.
@@bryzantine1571yeah pretty sure some of the lines are straight up taken from his original version
@@bryzantine1571all he did was the “this is for you” line.
Apparently he asked for one clip, and they provided like 29.
Mark is not incredible. In fact, I think he's the most boring Dragon Ball CZcamsr besides Carthu's Dojo and, if anything, Buu Bits just goes to show that they were really just too lazy to do Buu.
I love how Eric is dying from laughter so hard while trying to explain what the hell is going on in some of these
"I am an adult" makes this all worth it for me. It's such a natural conclusion to that joke that I've wanted ever since DBZA ended.
IMO “even you best buddy” is what makes it worth too much
The original abridged voice for adult Gohan in the Android 13 movie was actually Justin Briner, the english voice for Deku in MHA, which is a crazy get in retrospect. Nowadays, Briner is a little too busy and higher profile to do the Gohan voice for this so they recast but the creators have gone out and said in their commentaries that their biggest regret from not doing Season 4 was not getting Briner to do the role
They also got him to voice Cloud in FF7 Machinabridged!
@@IcyDragonPolarisi think this was before he got to become deku
@@ZyroShadowPonyHe was cast in FF7MA before he was cast as Deku, but he managed to stick around for the role even after being cast for MHA
Whoever they had voicing Gohan in History of Trunks was perfect, shame they couldn't have the same voice for Gohan here.
@@AlanGresov They had two reasons for not bringing back the VA from FoT. One: Gohan in Buu is 17 whereas Future Gohan is 24, the different VA's would highlight this age difference. Two: they wrote Main Timeline Gohan and Future Gohan to be effectively two different characters, Future Gohan is a broken man who never got over his daddy issues and hallucinates his mentor's voice in his head whereas MT Gohan is a down-to-Earth teen on the path to becoming a fully actualized adult. They felt as though having his edgey, broken down, 24-year old voice wouldn't fit the younger, goofier, sane persona he has in the Buu arc
“Even you, best buddy…” Lani and Lawerence went all out with their screams, and Lani had always wanted to do Vegeta’s sacrifice, even after they ended with the Cell Saga.
When Eric mentioned the narrator coming back, I knew they were gonna love the alternative scene.
the implication of goku singing the daddy shark verse is just adorable. It would mean goku tuned in to just watch goten when chichi puts on the song. its also just downright halarious
yeah, we do see Goku looking at Chichi and Gohan during Goten's birth through a crystal ball.
So glad they went back just to pay off jokes they clearly wanted to do.
I can see how stressing over cutting up something as baggy as the Buu Saga would have turned into a product that was less than what they’d achieved before.
Props to Mark for giving them this way to give the fans just a little more of what they wanted.
Tbh I really would have just prefered a handful of regular length episodes that cover the story in a way that doesn’t skip over 98% of the important stuff. There’s a lot of fluff here that didn’t show anything that was needed for the story.
That’s the point. TFS didn’t want to do the Buu story, it’s bloated as hell. If you’ve seen the Buu saga or read it you know it, they don’t need to cover it all.
it wasn't the Buu saga that did it, Bojack writing process burnt them out and they were all dealing with stuff in their lives atm so everything just went down@@chazo1367
@@chazo1367yeah, the buu saga is where the series finally lost me, even as a kid
@@thembill8246to be honest. Toriyama didn’t want to do Buu either but fan demand got higher ups to pressure him to do it. You can see the cracks from it. He is on fine form for Battle of Gods though.
Kamekameha is a thing that actually happens, Goten misspeaks saying it but the move still works in the tournament, prompting then to surmise that as a result of the mistake it's weaker than a true Kamehameha
Also its probably a small wink as kids you sometimes say it wrong
For thousands of years I laid dormant who has disturbed my… oh it’s blind wave buu bits… neat :)
Good stuff. :D
The fact that erik knows the narrator's line word for word and explains that moment so perfectly that they all get the reference when they see the joke later is incredible
53:30 it's so crazy how I never actually saw the Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack as Saibamen but they literally just exist to fly at people and explode (for the most part) which are basically just Saibamen!
Not alot of people caught on to this but Gohan's Saiyaman suit is based off the colors of Android 16. Gohan was a cool dude for that. 👍
I never knew 👍🏾
They did Vegeta's sacrifice so damn well, holy shit I'm impressed.
Talented fans be talented fans.
One of the best moments in dbza
Okay so what Babidi was actually saying was that ‘Towa would be pissed, but he doesn’t care because she’s barely canon.’
That’s a reference to Dabura’s sister, Towa. She appears in the games, Dragon Ball Online, both Xenoverses, Dragon Ball Fusions, Dragon Ball Kakarot, and the Dragon Ball Heroes series. That’s why she is considered barely canon. She is a game-only character.
Isn't Heroes an anime?
@@coranbaker6401 it’s a PR anime used to promote the Heroes game. So I don’t count it as a real anime like the others.
@@NarutoTsunadefan1
Fair enough. All I know about it is that Yamcha got a girlfriend but can't keep keep her due to her nebulous canon.
@@coranbaker6401 yeah that was part of the PR Anime’s latest arc. I did like the finishing attack in it but I won’t spoiler it in case you didn’t see it
@@NarutoTsunadefan1its canon
Its really great during Vegeta's sacrifice, Picolo amd Krillen are escaping the blast with trunks and Goten, and Krillen asks Picolo if they should turn around and go back to help Vegeta, but Picolo tells Krillen basically this is Vegeta's decision and they need to honor it. Its the first selfless thing he's done in his life.
Glad Erik is hyping up TotallyNotMark's reviews so much. They truly are great if you enjoy super long and comprehensive video essays and reviews.
Mark has even got some voice acting roles in here too, I found him through animation but now DBZA, and *MAN* I have never heard an Irishman sound so human before, it's uncanny.
(I'm Scots so it's ok for me to say that [it's actually the law], depending on how the internet's tummy's feeling today. But truly, his art breakdowns are spectacular, especially once he started speaking En---------
OK OK, sorry, he knows I love him MARK YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU)
@@John-gl6th Opinions are opinions, but the animation acumen is undeniably top tier, when it's presented and even contextually.
Most people who can review something sincerely are able to divorce themselves from things that are "nitpix" and personal opinions. I've always known Mark to differentiate his opinions based on the quality/nature of the animation's presentation of the story... and he goes out of his way to make sure we're aware of both.
He's ultimately a "break down" channel, not really a review/opinion channel, although it's not impossible for those to co-exist.
Take care John. I hope very sincerely that either of us could write "decent at best, and full of nitpicks" on our epitaph.
It'd be a far cry above the sincerity of what the internet wants to offer
@@wren7195Who's Mark voicing in here?
@@Khann_2102 He plays a reporter, originally I thought it was kinda long. I'd have to rewatch it to tell you when... there were like three different versions of Buu Bits for a while there, so I honestly don't know when/where it pops up. It's on Team Four Star's webpage though. Be safe KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANN
So many great payoffs from TFS. "I know you're playing me" "VEGETA YES" "I am an adult"
12:58 just to explain, Maron(Krillin's ex) was a filler character in the actual series, which could be why her name is so similar to Marron(the daughter). My only assumption is that Toriyama didn't know making Marron's character
Yes he did. He made Marron, the daughter, wayyy after Maron in the anime was made. He knew exactly what he was doing 🤣
@@ZarrarAAli He didn't, actually, they explained it to him after fans got confused and he thought it was funny. because of course he didn't remember some random one-off filler character he had nothing to do with.
Toriyama named krillin daughter after Marron which is a type of chestnut which is what krillin is named after.
Toei had the same idea which is why they named her maron which relates to krillin
@@bryzantine1571and now in the manga, Krilling's police chief name is Officer Nutz
@@franknova987 toriyama is all about puns and themes.
52:28 eric actually got this wrong, he said Toei but babidi said Towa aka the barely-canon sister of Dabura whos one of the main villains of the super-dragonball heroes/xenoverse side of things
Funnily enough though, TFS's playthough of xenoverse 1 and 2 is actually considered to be canon to DBZA specifically. Their CaC, Dumplin is a young Mr. Popo.
@@brony4869wait Fr? That’s hilarious I gotta check that out
@@wyattwear815 yeah, check the dbza wiki page for mr popo
@@wyattwear815 Yup, basically Duplin is Mr Popo before he became well.... who we know him now. and Xenoverse 2 follows Duplin and Towa's "daughter" Puddin, alongside other ocs they made cause they went for the platinum and got it. (Before all of the DLC came through)
@@wyattwear815 it’s why Popo doesn’t get directly involved in stuff, he already did all that shit and now just wants to get high all the time.
27:49 - that recitation was epic. Thank you, Eric.
I'd be down for Eric guiding these guys through DBZ and DBS proper
i think they should at least react to DBZ Kai
@@jizy06or just read through the manga in their own time if they want and can. Much quicker way to do it.
@@fartinator1 Manga isn't for everyone, and we wouldn't get a reaction then, which many of us would like.
DBS has way more comedy segments than Z so it might be an easy transition for them coming off DBZA, honestly.
Especially with Daima on the way. I know it seems like that series will mostly be its own thing, but I assume Eric will react to that while it airs and it’d be cool if Calvin and Aaron could catch up and join him on those reactions.
Even though I’d prefer they react to Dragon Ball Z, it’d probably be more efficient if they went with Dragon Ball Z Kai. Also would bet on them really getting a kick out of the movies.
With Super they could just substitute the first two arcs with Battle of Gods and Resurrection ‘F’, then it’s just the Universe 6, Goku Black and Universe Survival sagas.
“Did they ever beat Black Frieza?”
Toriyama: “Probably”
😂😂😂 that's cuz it hasn't been written yet, so he said 'probably'
It's Poetic u guys just showed up in the TFS Creator Commentary of Broly! since that movie is the most viewed from TFS! they were talking about watching reactors and Blind Wave showing up in the reel!
12:41 Fun fact: Toriyama picked the name at random, he didn't know about the filler.
When he was told about it he reportedly found it hilarious. (hence the joke in super with 17/18)
In case anyone didn't catch it, the title card for the Vegito bit (At least it isn't Vegerot) is a nod to the (english) manga where Vegito's name was Vegerot.
Cool, I didn't know that 😁
Oh man. That "even you best buddy" line hit different. I felt that too Eric. And the callback no/yes joke was perfectly inserted. These guys are masters of their craft.
Damn Eric’s Mr.Satan voice is SPOT ON. Also glad he was able to fill em in on DBZ info they didn’t know.
Eric: They had an Ozaru
Aaron: Who?
Eric: I know
😂😂
Lol!
Okay, I missed it when they first uploaded, but at 24:12 Towa is a character from the demon realm that has only appeared in db online, xenoverse, most recently in db Kakarot and more prominently in dragonball heroes. She Dabura's sister.
It wasn't just "some" people it was two bad guys who enjoyed killing people. Before they get to Buu they killed a elderly couple just for fun. They got to Buu, shot the dog and chaos ensued. Buu killed one of them quite brutally as well.
Masako deserves massive credit for that SSJ3 scream. Dude put his soul into that and it came out wonderful
I know you guys have a particular way you choose what series to do, but given that it's only Eric reacting to most mainline Dragonball content these days I feel like it'd be cool if you all reacted to some Dragonball. Like maybe have everyone react to DBZ Kai, since it cuts down + re-dubs DBZ into a pretty decent starting point.
Just a thought, since I'd love to see the whole group enjoying DB.
Responded to someone else suggesting this and I agree! Have Calvin and Aaron react to Kai, then the two most recent Z movies, then the last three Super arcs in time for Daima. I’m sure Eric will react to that series so it’d be cool if they could join him on that.
Goten actually does say Kamekameha and they even include it as it’s own move in certain Dragon Ball games
Your DBZ abridged reactions is what introduced your channel to me
And I be forever grateful bc you guys are the GOAT of reaction channels
Same here.
Even got the chance to thank Eric in chat when he was playing ME2 and happened to catch a live
1:05:55 actually, that was a gag IN dbz
Goten literally in canon messes up and calls its the Kamekameha, if I recall its because he semi-sloppily imitated it from seeing Gohan do it or hearing people reference the attack. In order to show his immense potential and battle skill just like his dad, the show chooses to have him pull the attack out on a whim like that and use it successfully *despite* messing up the name
Goten really coulda been "that guy"
Goku: She stll has all of her vital organs!
Piccolo: AlL Of tHeM!?
God I missed these guys
In the manga Videl instantly figured out who Great Saiyaman is by asking him by name how he got out class… which he answered like a dummy 😂
The mouth popping open on Super Buu is a TFS edit! They wanted to lean a bit more into Majin Buu's eldritch/cosmic horror nature, and considering Buu is a shapeshifter and his lesser predecessor Cell could copy the voices of his prey, its perfectly plausible. Easily my favorite bit from DBZA
To clarify, Babbidi didnt say "toei" he said 'Towa', Dabura's sister from the Dragonball Xenoverse games, was "going to be pissed at him" for getting her brother killed. And then he said, "who cares, b**ch is barely canon". Because she is exclusively in the games Xenoverse and Super Dragonball Heroes.
Of course, this is even funnier because its been said that TFS's playthough of Xenoverse 1 and 2 are canon to the events of DBZA. Take a look that the Abridged Mr Popo wiki page for more about that
Reason Goten says Kamekameha is because he actually just doesn't remember it is Kamehameha and says it wrong. They have an entire move for it in the games where it is a faster but weaker version of the normal attack.
I actually started craving potato salad when Vegeta mentioned bringing some to Krillin's BBQ.
So I got up and made some. Delish. 🤤
You are truly lost to us
Just so yall know the kamekameha joke is also a joke they do in the original. It's not really a TFS joke TFS just added the "why say it at all' "because it sounds cool!" In the original Trunks just laughs at him and says he said it wrong and it ends there. Edit: didn't know about the other "kamekameha" thing. I don't think that's the reference but that's funny.
Also note on why there are 2 types of fusions here. There was originally only supposed to be metamoran fusion (or fusion dance) but when Goku and Vegeta were gonna fuse the Janemba movie was being made and Gogeta (the metamoran fusion of Goku and Vegeta) was in that movie, so to not steal the movie's thunder Toriyama added Potara Fusion. The Potara fusion not being permanent is also explained. The potara are earings given to Supreme Kai only and only Supreme Kai are supposed to use the fusion. If 2 mortals use it than it is not permanent. Since mortals have never used it before the Supreme Kai's didn't know this, so they told Goku it was permanent. A lot of this is really just Toriyama making stuff up as he goes though. For example Shin never telling Goku about Potara fusion is basically just explained as he never knew it existed and only the older kais knew about it, which is why Elder Kai told them about it and not Shin.
I thought in the anime at least it was supposed to be permanent for Goku and Vegeta?
@@SimsinWonderland Yes that's why I said Toriyama made up stuff as they go. Originally they were supposed to be permanently fused but Toriyama retconned that. The cannon reason is that only fusions with a god involved will be permanent. Fusions with only mortals are not.
I think the most entertaining part of this is watching Eric scramble to explain everything.
I have laid dormant for a thousand years... It's great to see you guys reacting to these bits. I have watched your reaction to the DBZA series so many times. I love you all and wish you the best. Also, nail and kami were missing in all these bits
I was so happy to see this in my feed, I really enjoyed your original reaction and was waiting for this!
I remember discovering this channel through the DBZA reaction in 2016, this feels redeeming to see Calvin who knew little about the franchise back then he had to look away at the intro to not be spoiled to where's he at now. Anyways top tier content you guys, keep going much love !
15:55 I am 35 years old. I have been watching dragon ball z since I was like 5. I know so much about dragon ball. Videl's name being an anagram of devil in theme with her fathers name.............................was something I just learned today.
Most names are puns lol
A bit saddened y'all missed the pronouns for Gotenks: " I'm/him."
To be fair, that whole scene was hilarious.
Maybe it was hard to catch the joke while cringing about pronouns in general.
@@blackrose8418 I don't think so. They were laughing over that particular part of the scene. They might not have heard it.
@@blackrose8418 Yikes
@@Juice1984 that too
@@addollz6192It's not yikes. The pronouns bullshit is just a dumb way for some people to feel special.
Oh man, you cannot believe how great is to see You with DBZ Abridged once more!
For me the most wholesome part of the Buu saga was when Majin Buu healed that blind kid that was just beautiful 🥹
I love they were able to bring back the "ALL OF THEM?" Joke from their DBZ kai abridged which is derived from a dub read by Chris Sabbot in DB
I'm very happy this finally happened. The DBZA reactions were actually how I first discovered Blind Wave, many years ago now, so to see it come full circle, just like how TFS came full circle with these Buu Bits in the first place, warms my heart in a weird parasocial way. I'm still very excited for a Rick reacts to DBZA, you've hinted at it a couple times and it gets me hyped every time.
Watching Eric explain the narrator coming back, without knowing what was coming later, was the best part of the episode.
Real life dramatic irony
Would you mind explaining that a little?
@@RabbidTribble what do you mean?
Also! If you guys are up for more Monkey King shenanigans, I can HEARTILY recommend Overly Sarcastic Productions' summaries of the original Journey To The West. They've got a good eight or ten episodes out now, and it's VERY well told.
My favorite Goku moment is when he tells God to move. And God moves.
Was wondering if you’d react to this, so glad you did!!!
Erik you NEED to show them the original funimation Super Saiyan 3 scene. They need to experience the entire 5 minute long scream session. Don't even have to record it. It's just so amazing.
1:14:07 Would be nice to finally have Rick react to DBZA (with Eric, of course). We had a tease of that with your reaction to Plan to Eradicate Christmas, but I've been blue-balled ever since.
Even Jake can join in if he wants
You guys should watch DragonShortZ and HFIL Both of them are a sequel series to dragon ball z abridged
I would love for you guys to go back and rewatch the whole series in order again! You are my favourite reaction channel and DBZA never misses. Maybe you can bring someone new to watch also, and have Aaron there as we never got to see him react to episodes 1-40ish. Thanks as always guys!
Its always funny thinking back to DB where there was 1 god and it was Kami. Then we had King Kai, then...
Man it just kept going. Im still expecting another even higher level god to appear.
Above Zeno?
The amount of jokes and lines that came full circle with these buu bits made me so happy!!!
I really love The Buu Bits and this was such a fun reaction but like Eric said, this wasn't made to be a coherent story alternative like the rest of Abridged. I know your schedule is pretty big at the moment but it would be so cool if Eric, Calvin and Aaron react to the buu saga and then super (or at least watch it in their own time) so they can join in on future dragon ball reactions with Eric. Having the three of you to discuss things in the new content would be pretty awesome :D
I'm so glad I watched the reaction from you guys because I never new about the context of the narrator coming back for Vegeta's final atonement as I learned most of DBZ's story through the games as a kid. So knowing that now with the clip of the narrator saying "Vegeta fucking dies" makes it SO much funnier.
So couple of things.
When the dog gets killed Fat Buu ends up ejecting his evil which forms into a skinny grey evil Buu who ends up absorbing Fat Buu and becoming Super Buu.
Gohan is the strongest singular (not counting any fusions) character in all of DBZ.
The Potara fusion was initially thought to be permanent in DBZ, with the leading theory of why they split being magic when Buu absorbed them, though was retconned in DBS to it's only permanent for Kai's
Hey, you guy got mentioned in the latest dbza Broly commentary video. Great job guys!
Vegeta's sacrifice always makes me shed a tear, now theres 2 versions of it
I'm really surprised at how well Eric was able to recall all those moments from the anime, great vid.
Akira Toriyama never took DBZ very seriously, but by the time the Buu Saga came around, he was clearly so sick of working on it.
The saga really does drag on.
That's because his editors kept changing his ideas
It's clear from the fan reaction to Dragon Ball Daima, pretty much everyone takes dragon ball more seriously than Toriyama
FINALLY
I was waiting for this.
Man, I love this dynamic of Eric explaining the weight of certain scenes to Calvin and Aaron.
I was lucky enough to watch the Buu Saga when it originally aired, just like Eric. I'm so, _so_ glad that Team Four Star went back and covered some of it. It may not have been everything, but they got all the scenes that counted. That conversation with Vegeta and Piccolo and that bit with the narrator made me cackle. Good times.
YESS!! I am so exited to see all of this later!
YES! I’ve been waiting for this!
42:05 actually yes they did have that planned. They did a Q/A on one of their channels a few years ago and someone asked them about some buu saga jokes they were planning on doing and Gohan’s “I am adult” was always planned. Sam with Vegeta saying “Best buddy” during his sacrifice. Lani actually posted it on his Twitter doing the voice over, a few years ago. He used a manga panel rather than the actual clip for the show. I don’t remember all of the other jokes they mentioned that they wanted to do, but I think a good chunk of them, they had already planned out.
17:40 that feeling when:
You're trying to give context to your friends about the deeper lore of what they're seeing (him explaining the God/Kai hierarchy)
Which causes you to go off on a tangent because you remember an extra level of context (him taking a second to try and explain that Grand Kai exists but is only shown in the filler)
But then your friend's cut you off with a question that you're more than happy to answer (who's body do I get)
Which results in you completely forgetting to finish your previous thought (RIP Grand Kai, you wont be explained)
Only those of us who love to share things and are chronic explainers experience such suffering 😂
What a great way to wake up and start the day! 😁 TFS didn’t lose their touch at all and I’m glad I get to continue the tradition of watching Blind Wave react to them. 😊
YOO i been waiting for yalls reaction
I really like they changed Vegeta asking if he'll see Goku instead of what will happen because Vegeta already died to Freeza. Now he knows Goku is dead too, just finishing out his day, so he has different priorities.
Lovely reaction as usual ^^
Excited to see team four stars content return.
"The voices are back!" 🤣
Absolutely go through abridged again. would be amazing to watch with some of your other members
I was hoping they would lean into how legitimately terrifying Buu can be and they did it! The voices of those he’s eaten screaming from his skin is A grade body horror.
Also I laughed so hard at Popo being the one to fully charge the Spirit Bomb with just one hand that I couldn’t breathe.🤣🤣🤣
And hearing Ultimate Gohan finally say “I AM AN ADULT” followed by one of the most brutal gut punches I’ve seen to this day.👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
eric shining light on how powerful that scene is was awesome!
This is so nostalgic. I remember years back, the Dbza reactions are the first thing i watched after work.
I BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!!
Goten being an idiot battle junkie like his dad might just be my favourite thing about the Buu Bits 🤣
The end of the Buu saga i technically canon. In super, im pretty sure one of the kais said that kid buu's spirit was reincarnated into a good kid. I remember it was in one of the first epio
And Uub hasn't been utilized since
@@noahsmith1053they used him for another thing in the manga too. I don’t think we’ll see him again until the End of Z arc though.
Gohan is my favorite character and it’s because of his time in this arc. I just wish he stayed or eventually reclaims the title of main character. Toriyama may not have liked writing for him, but I think he’s the key for dragon ball to recover to its glory.
Also Buu is my favorite villain and him saying “Buu has played this game” made me want to crap my pants because that was just GENUINELY terrifying.
I’m sad that TFS couldn’t do the Buu saga as it’s my favorite in dragon ball. It has the most famous moments and mistakes I hope people recognize aren’t new to the franchise. Buu saga just has everything for the better and worse. And it’s what allows me to enjoy Super so much more than most even with its shortcomings.
Buu Saga just has tremendously bad pacing. It starts off incredibly slowly, then picks up ridiculously fast once Shin shows up, then slows way back down once Fusion is brought into the picture. The writing is still fine overall and it does have some awesome moments, but the whole thing is just bogged down by so much fluff. Watching episode to episode feels like erosion, and binging it makes everything sort of just meld together. There isn't really a great way to watch the Buu saga.
@@jacobmonks3722 again, I do get people’s complaints, but I feel similarly about other sagas and it’s fluff. And the weird consistency of the main character of the arcs never being apart of the finale despite being the focus. Vegeta, Krillin, and Gohan are the main characters of Namek, and yet Goku fulfills the finale role. Goku, Trunks, and Piccolo are the main driving points of Cell/Android saga and Gohan fulfills the finale role, but everyone only remembers Gohan being the main character of Buu along with Trunks and Goten, and yet Goku once again fulfills the finale role.
I’m not saying it’s perfect, but I feel like Buu saga is the best representation of Dragon ball between its mistakes and it’s coming to fame moments. I LOVE certain fights and love pretty much EVERY transformation. But Dragon ball just drags at times. Sometimes it’s from manga being unwritten, sometimes it’s just a break in pace. And there are NUMEROUS points where I say THAT is how you’re going to get the conflict to move to its next stage?!
I just think DBZ is a flawed series, but I love the exact same things as everyone else in it. And I feel like DBS while it has its own problems yes that SUCK, once again captures what is beloved AND what is hated. And GT is a LOT more suck than capturing what is beloved outside Ssj4.
Tbf, it's not that he didn't LIKE writing Gohan. It's that he couldn't figure out how.
To quote totally not mark, "Gohan is a reactionary character" but toriyama only ever wrote pro active main characters.
It wasn't his typical style, so he struggled, and eventually just brought Goku back.
Actually, Babidi said Towa was gonna be pissed, referring to Towa from the recent Dragonball games who's related to Dabura.
