      I love that Calvin's first gut reaction to 16 was hating his love of birds, and after he died...
      Aaron: The birds =/
      Calvin: And the things that are not birds! =)
      Character development paying off! He never learned to love the birds, but he learned to love 16 despite of them.

    For those who still somehow believe Gohan is a coward - I strongly urge you to watch Kaiser's episode 60 breakdown where he explains the writing and direction of each scene in this finale.
    As it turns out - the TFS writers also didn't believe Gohan was *actually* a coward. 16 just told him what he needed to hear at that moment. He needed that final push. Basically sit there and do nothing and your friends die. Or unleash your inner power and at least there's hope that some of them may yet survive this. Gohan (as explained by the TFS crew) was not a fighter like his dad and never wanted to fight and train constantly for the rest of his life. Ironically enough though, in that moment, the only one who had the power to stand up to Cell was the only one not giving it his all. Also understand that up until now - he's also the only one who hasn't fought his own battle. All his life his friends have fought for him.
    BUT having said that - let's not forget:
    Gohan attacked Raditz after seeing his dad get hurt
    Gohan attacked Nappa after more of the same
    Gohan saved Dende
    Gohan stood up to Recoome
    and
    Gohan attacked FUCKING FRIEZA
    Let's not forget also when Imp-Cell nearly killed Piccolo - Gohan was ready to jump in and fight knowing full well he was nowhere strong enough to match Cell
    Tien gets ALOT of credit for stopping Semi-Cell absorb 18 but Gohan has basically been doing that all his life - AS A DAMN CHILD
    So no. Gohan is in no way shape or form a coward. 16 just needed to give him a good enough reason to unlock his full fury.
    Also in 16's speech when talking about Trunks: how does he know about the parts he wasn't there for?

    • @Warcodered01
      @Warcodered01 Před 5 lety +51

      This makes a lot of sense I mean 16 starts off the whole speech telling Gohan to grow up, kids 11. I mean Gohan knows the whole plan at this point is for him to snap and kill Cell and even for an adult the idea of killing someone even a monster like Cell isn't easy. I mean the military breaks people down and builds them back up to get people to do that under orders and that doesn't even always work.

      and

      All of them in "snap" moments, all of them when rage overpowered him and he just let go and stopped reasoning. Never out of his own volition or planned, much less controlled. After that brief rage was gone and he came back to his mind he got DESTROYED in every one of those instances.
      Also there's the little teamup of Piccolo and Krillin on Nappa that sends him blasting down towards Gohan, where Piccolo tells him to finish him, and instead he runs away in fear.
      Now was he a coward?. Well, Gohan was 6 at that time, 10/11 by the time of the Cell Saga. There's so much you can ask out of a kid, specially something as brutal as this series demanded out of him.
      But that he did believe himself that he was a coward is beyond question. Specially in the Abridged take, the reason he goes SSJ in the Time Chamber is foremost and primordially because he remembers all those who had stepped up to protect him against deadly threats, when he had never really done it by himself (again yes, he stepped up at certain times but only when he was not really on his senses). He truly hates that on himself, and it can be seen at several points during the series.
      At any rate I don't think DBZ implies necessarily he was a coward, as he's also the one who steps up and is the true hero of the "trunks timeline", being his mentor, fighting a losing battle yet never quitting until he actually got killed protecting others. But as a kid he certainly wasn't "brave". I wouldn't go out of the way to say he was a coward because he was not even an adolescent by the time of the Cell saga and he was an infant during the Saiyan and Freezer sagas; but his actions weren't exactly a paragon of valor either.

      @@ramjb This rendition of Gohan is my favourite and many of the Series Fans as well. Yes that his acts of running away, hiding his power level could be labelled as acts of cowardice but he is a kid who puts himself on the front line to fight terrible Evil, so there is a thematic ambiguity or Yin-Yang about his character. But that internal struggle is what fuelled this scene to be one of the most impactful and iconic scene in DBZ ever in my opinion.

    Just a couple of easter eggs, the names of the Cell Jr's were the first names of all the voice actors who've voiced Cell (Curtis being Takahata101), and they usually edit scenes down to make them faster and flow better, for the Super Saiyan 2 transformation they didn't edit anything out, they put it in as is

    16's speech includes a few nods to actual historically significant speeches and quotes. "There you stand, the good man doing nothing, and while evil triumphs..." is taken from Edmund Burke's famous quote "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." Shortly after, we hear him say "You are a coward, to your last whimper." T.S. Elliot once stating "This is how the world ends. Not with a bang, but with a whimper." as if Gohan refuses to fight, the world dies with him.

      Ráguila It’s a meme based around the big twist of Light becoming Kira again. One of the fansubs/translations of the manga panel kept the Japanese term for plan, which is “keikaku”. So the line said “All according to keikaku”, and added in “Translator’s note: Keikaku means plan”. It was so unnecessary that it became meme’d as hell.

      *[Death Note SPOILERS]*
      There's a famous scene in Death Note, when Light gets the book back and retrieve his memories, which kinda turned into a meme, because in one translation version, the subtitles says "All according to keikaku", with a note on the top: "Translator note: Keikaku means plan" (instead of simply translating all the sentence). In the TFS version it was even funnier because of the double note. If you search "all according to keikaku" on google, you will find so much parodies today you wouldn't even know where it comes from.

    I’m so glad that Eric recognised the song during the transformation. I’ve seen a fair number of reactors who didn’t recognise it but at least they still enjoyed and appreciated it. Some reactors, however, had never heard it before and criticised it, saying things like it didn’t fit or it was a dumb song choice. It’s their own opinions, nothing wrong with that, but it’s always a little disheartening to hear the original score accused of not being appropriate for the scene, and more specifically on the part of Teamfourstar it’s not fair to say they made a weird decision when in the context of the show’s history it makes perfect sense and is very respectful to the origin of that scene.
    My personal preference is this song over the Faulconer score since in that version it wasn’t that unique, it was a score they used in multiple other scenes throughout the series, where as this song is unique to Gohan’s transformation. The Faulconer score also was weirdly techno and edgy rather than hope born from tragedy, so that’s just my preference.
    Anyway, great reaction, always great to see fans of the old series and people who have never seen the original enjoying the same thing together.

      I think I've watched a large selection of the reactions that appear if you just type in reaction to dbza 60 on youtube, so too many to list. But specifically in regards to the negative reactions to the song I'd have to go through them all again to be certain which ones didn't like it. The main one I remember having some seriously negative feedback and saying the song was completely the wrong choice and made no sense for the scene, I can't find their video anymore so I'm worried negative feedback in the comments might have caused them to delete the video.
      It was just his opinion, he shouldn't have had to delete the video over it, but admittedly I disagreed strongly with what he said.

      Munzur Baba It'd be great if it made sense. Granpa Gohan staying dead makes sense, over 1 year had passed and he literally asked not to be resurrected. 16 had a great death but a moronic reason to stay dead. He could've just been rebuilt and gone to live with 17 at the island he protects. Hell, forget about Shenron, the chip was intact and they had Gero's plans for the androids, Bulma could've rebuilt him

    • @hisross

      Kaiser0120 (AKA KaiserNeko, the DBZA editor): "That's actually the plan, should DBZA continue."

      Yes i really want them to react to FF7 machinabridged since it's been mostly ignored by nearly every reaction channel out there.

    The real reason Team four star probably won't continue DBZA is every time they release an episode they get several copy right claims from Toei and have to go through So much to solve it which they're frustrated with. Even right now so many DB CZcams channels including Geekdom have had their channels put on hold because of their DB super Manga reviews. It's just not worth the hassle

    After the abridged cell saga ends you should show them the full gohan fight from the English dub

    I appreciate how much you've increased the volume of the actual show since the last episode I saw (Korra series).

  • @theashennathancroft7271
