Best version of Goku's "I am" speech from Dragonball Z Kai. Others cut off the BGM before it finishes, that's just not right!
Rest in peace, Toriyama, truly a cornerstone of Shonen that will never be forgotten.
Not a cornerstone, the foundation
@@thestrongestlivingcreature Fair. I'm inclined to agree. Most Shonen manga take heavy inspiration from him to this very day.
He was a hack, good riddance.

Speech literally starts with, “I drove all the way to ya place specifically to kick ya ass.”
my favorite kind of speech lmao
This is an english version of the original japanese speech! It is very badass

@@HeroTheHedgehog999 who?
"I AM THE SUPER SAIYAN, SON GOKU!"
Chiiiiiills, man.
I cried out "FUCK YES!!!" when I first heard it, because not only was it awesome, but an English dub FINALLY used Goku's full name!
(Admittedly, I was watching the Nicktoons version, but still)
Mugen Kagemaru They've used his full name in Burst Limit as well. But man, am I glad they've adapted his full name to the dub.
Well, his full name in English would have to be "Goku Son" since Son is his last name, and the "Son Goku" ordering follows the Asian way of putting family name first.
hasen195 Let's be honest, Son Goku sounds better.
Well, it does because we're used to it. The English version never mentioned the name "Son".
I'm not sure about the DB series, but in DBZ I don't remember ever hearing it in any English dub, other than this scene.
Fun fact, "I am Son Goku" was Sean Schemmel's idea. He really badly wanted to do it.
I hope he received applause for it.
I recall he had to get permission to do this too. Chris had to go to the higher ups and ask if this was okay.
that line was already on the manga and japanese dub tho
@@leandrodiaz5433 True, but that was the Japanese way to say it, in English it is just Goku, thank God he was able to do this. I await the next time he is able to say SON GOKU
@@El-Gato69 oh, in english they don't usually call him son goku? that's interesting
What this speech has over the Z version is that Goku has finally accepted his role in the universe. While he is proud to call Earth his home, he finally fully acknowledges that he is not human. When he says “I am the Super Saiyan, Son Goku!”, you can hear the saiyan pride in his voice. What a beautiful moment.
Even before, when he buries Vegeta and goes to fight Freezer he says that he's a Saiyan raised on earth and that his name is Goku. He accepted to be a Saiyan and the proud of it, but not Kakarot, he was raised in the earth and his name is Goku. Also he tells Freeza that he'll kill him for all the Saiyans he killedbut also for the Namekians he murdered, showing his Saiyan pride but also his Human compassion
Super Sayian was the first time in a long while that he let his Sayian rage out, he kept all that shit bottled in since he was a toddler.
Yeah. I can certainly see why many would consider this, Goku's peak(I honestly consider this one of Goku's peaks). 😊 Goku has finally embraced his Saiyan heritage, even if he made it clear to call the earth his true home. And he did it so heroically. ❤ And I can't help but feel so uplifted every time I hear Goku's speech. ❤
The OG speech was better.
@@Damitsall This is the OG speech. The original dub just completely butchered Akira Toriyama's writing. The Z dub didn't even make sense for Goku's character
You know shit's gonna get real when Sean slaps "Son" in front of Goku...

I AM SON GOKU, AND I AM A SUPER SANDWICH!
hes an insane, from earth
+David Graham THAT TOO
“There are three things all wise men fear: the sea in storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man.”
SSJ Goku's first appearance is literally the embodiment of the last bit.
Goku may like to fight, but at heart is is a gentle person overall (albeit a bit clumsy and lacking some common sense). He fights for fun and to push his limits, but not to kill, or destroy. He'd rather end a fight peacefully and with mercy than to destroy his opponent unless he is given no other choice.
Could you explain the night with no moon for me please ?
The anger of a gentle man fits Gohan very well too when he transforms to ssj 2
Sorry but as a kid he can be way scarier
@@Greekhalo2010 I know it's late, but "a night with no moon" is refering to a New Moon, the phase of the lunar cycle where the moon is hidden. The night is always darkest during a New Moon, because it means there's no moonlight to illuminate everything. Without the light we can't see, which makes us defenseless against things like dangerous predators who can see perfectly in the dark.
@@Gabriel-oq8gs thank you my friend!
Forget one, Goku's first transformation is all three of those!
So many hate Kai, but this is truly Goku. Not Superman, but him. He's not a hero but simply a martial artist trying to live his life and enjoying fighting the strongest of people.

Fun Fact: Sean Schemmel, Goku's English VA fought HARD to keep this line in for Kai.
They were originally going to omit Goku's full name, but because of Schemmel, we got to hear the entire speech in it's full glory and he delivers on it.
I remember screaming "FUCK YEAH" when I heard Goku's full name. It was fucking awesome to hear that.
And it came back in "Battle Of Gods" when Goku introduced himself to Beerus.
I swear, it should be under "And The Fandom Rejoiced" regarding Kai on TV Tropes.
It would be so weird for him not to say Son Goku.
“I am the Super Saiyan, Son Goku!” sounds a lot better than “I am the Super Saiyan, Goku!”
@LioSlayer You forgot the #1 thing he did, blessing us with his screams and voice for goku

Your voice was the one I grew up with, and it truly hurts to see you gone. Thank you for your contribution to the beloved series.
🙏
Thank you Toriyama. You have impacted my life and childhood like no other. The characters that you developed gave me so much motivation and inspired me to overcome many things in life. Nothing but love for you
This speech is absolutely perfect. Goku isn't "the hope of the universe." This is him accepting his saiyan heritage. The music fits perfectly. The dialogue is so good. This is what Akira Toriyama asked for. The tv show that's true to what he first created. Kai NAILD it!
I still got that hope of the universe vibe. Pure of heart awakened by fury....cmon now.In essence he's saying it without saying it.
RaginDXDemon I do see what you mean.
***** How does it suck? Give me a one good reason why it sucks.
DHGxNightFall Amen!
AMEN TO THAT!!
Why can't we all just agree that they are all good, I mean yeah funimation may have not been accurate, but it was still pretty cool.
I like how Goku didn’t even entertain the thought of a Super Saiyan, and then he became the very thing he nudged aside. This is arguably one of the best scenes in Dragonball hands down. “I AM THE SUPER SAIYAN, SON GOKU!!”
1:25 I like to believe that Frieza was not only scared that this is the true Super Saiyan, but also because he saw Bardock in Goku's eyes.
@Darth Pancake Studios yes.... He did..... Have you not seen when frieza blown up planet vegeta which killed bardock and every other sayian?
Darth Pancake Studios The manga does have a panel in which Frieza sees Goku and is reminded of Bardock. Maybe this was one of those moments where Frieza saw the same vengeful look in the son of the saiyan he killed.
@FREDRICK ADAMKIEWICZ Yeah the scene is in Z for sure, I've heard the misconception that it was anime only so I used the manga example.
Nahhh
Bardock was weak as hell
Rest in peace Akira Toriyama… Thank you for giving many generations the fiery will of a saiyan. I’ll see you in Otherworld my friend.
I’m so glad kai didn’t use the “hero”speech, Akira didn’t want goku to be the hero type and I’m glad kai changed that
People say that, and forget about the nimbus. Then again, Toriyama probably forgot, too.
Robot .Beach I wouldn’t be surprised. He forgot about Launch too
That speech made me fall in love with Goku as a character. This one is meh.
@Darth Pancake Studios not to disagree, but 'pure of heart' doesn't necessarily mean heroic.
Kai didn't change anything. They just stuck with the original. Funimation was the one who changed it when they first dubbed the series. That's why I prefer Kai over the original.
everything he says "I AM THE SUPER SAIYAN, SON GOKU!!!" combined with the yamamoto score and volcanic eruption makes it my favorite moment in all of dragon if I'm totally honest
Budokai Man he said that once
I love how Sean added the "Son" to Goku's name
Sean apparently had to get special permission from the higher ups to say “Son Goku”
Something Sean always wanted
DragonHotFire What? That’s literally just what he said. He wanted to say it, so he had to get permission from the higher-ups.
I don't like it. It's like a bad translation
RedHotFire Lol redhotfire you went from a 0 to a 10 over a simple comment telling you that you’re wrong.
But that isn't canon. His name is Goku son.not son Goku
Goku is the first name. Stupid Kai dub -_-
i've always liked Kai's Rendition of Goku's super saiyan speech, he's never been a hero, always just a person trying to live life, and kai captures that so beautifully here
He might not have been trying to be a hero, but he ends up being one through his actions.
Goku IS a hero. He is just not a one that's necessarily virtuous all the time. He saved countless people with his sacrifices (Cell Sacrifice, etc)
@@awsomeboy360 The stuff he does may be heroic, but he’s no pinnacle of justice like the original Z dub made him out to be
@@kyleh1494 Yep and that's why the manga and Kai are the best version.
Why does he sacrifice his life many times over to save others? He literally blew himself up with Cell to save others. You are a retard.
They FINALLY say Goku's surname :D Ya did good, Kai, ya did good.
You can thank Sean for that. It was his idea to say "Son" Goku...
His what?
*Back when ssj hair was blond normally then gold when they powered up*
More level to detail
Ye
I freaking miss this dawg
I mean I don’t really mind to be honest. In fact, I think the gold is better in some ways. It doesn’t look like they are actually blonde in super, it goes well with the golden aura when they transform. What I really wish they did was apply more details during the actual transformations from time to time instead of changing the hair automatically while the screen vigorously shakes.
I kind of like the golden hair always on
I waited years to hear this amazing dialogue. I am a very happy fan. Sean Schemmel I thank you

Gohan was such a tough kid growing up. He watched krillin and dende die in front of him but still looked to the brighter side.
He even Snapped when he saw a Pure Android Die.
He had a great dad as a great example
I mean he also saw yamcha get blown up and chiaotzu blow himself up and tien die from exhaustion by putting too much energy into his attack oh and piccolo was pretty much cooked alive by nappa's attack and practically died in gohan's arms

"I am the Saiyan who came all the way from earth with a soul purpose of beating you, I am the warrior you heard of in legends, pure of heart and awakened by fury, that's who I am!. Grrrr! I AM THE SUPER SAIYAN, SON GOKU!"

+RudraStrife Kai's voice acting and such is way better, but Kai took out a LOT of the character development of the original.
HOLY CRAP HE ACTUALLY CALLED HIMSELF SON GOKU ALL THESE YEARS AND I NEVER KNEW THAT!!!!!
D F Technically, it is the original. Kai was created to do what Z didn’t: follow the manga. While Z was entertaining, it came at the price of butchering many parts of the story. Kai balanced the two.
@@shibathesamurai9893 is Kai a DBZ sequel or remake?
Enclander Sweg It’s a remake.
Enclander Sweg Just with more manga accuracy and less filler.
DeeCee I’m honestly not sure. I guess it took creative liberties, and if that’s the case, I think they were too creative. The Ocean dub severely if not completely ruined some of the characters’ traits from the manga, and when Funimation did a redo of the Z dub, they didn’t do anything other than change a few lines, in which a lot were still inaccurate, and some of the voice actors. They both basically turned Goku’s story into somewhat of a Superman story.
This honestly has more feeling than the original.
Son Goku finally accepted his saiyan heritage here.
How???
BOB IGOR RUINED STAR WARS NOT JUST KATHLEEN there’s more character in this than the original dub line where he basically just says I’m the good guy! You’re the bad guy!

I'm Dyin dick head
This version of the speech is my favorite. Not preachy, not pretentious or rehearsed. It's just Goku telling frieza that he crossed the line before beating the snot out of him.
Probably one of the greatest parts about this is that Sean Schemmel (goku's voice actor) actually had to ask for permission to say the "Son Goku" part. He wanted to say it to not only give homage to the japanese version but to die hard fans. The reason he needed permission is because all the characters have a script that are meant for them so their flaps match up.
Ask permission for main character's full name ?
Reiji Arisu the "Son" in Son Goku is strictly for the japanese to you use, and the english cast can only use "goku" as mentioned before with their script provided by funimation so yes, he had to ask for permission. Not once before or after this has the english dub ever referred to Goku as Son Goku.
MegaDrain In the game Burst Limit he say that to Frieza as well.
Master Chief Petty Officer Spartan John-117 I think they have more freedom with the games, but for DBZKai, he had to ask for permission.
In Japan, family names are said before given names. While in English, you might call him "Goku Son" or, for another anime character, Naruto Uzumaki, the Japanese would say the 'last name' first - so "Son Goku" and "Uzumaki Naruto".
Rest in Peace Akira Toriyama for motvating all young man into becoming a hero or someone others can rely on, you connected every Black person and hispanic with your art and writing when I second guess myself I always comeback to the "I am" speech.
This one is much better. Who knows Goku knows that he IS NOT the kind of character who says things like "I am the truth. I am the light in the darkness, the hope of the innocent". Goku can be arrogant sometimes, but he doesn't see himself as a hero.
Who Tf cares, this speech gave no inspiration like the Funi one
JazRo Art But this is not an inspirational scene. This is not a "I'm good, you're evil" scene. This is when Goku embraces his Saiyan blood to avenge his race and Krillin. This fight is about revenge, not for a greater good like saving the Universe. Goku started fighting for fun and to protect his friends, but now he is fighting only for that, revenge.
TheSuperSaturos
As I said, I don't care. It's a good speech.
I love this speech alot more than "Ally to good" speech. That was so NOT Goku. Goku isnt a hero by choice, only circumstance, he fights only for himself more than others.
+Quantum-Kakarotto everyone knows it doesn't represent Goku, but Funi is a better speech in general
Kai was amazing! I don't understand why people bash it. Chris ayers for Frieza was hands down the best frieza, and gokus speech was awesome. He actually referred himself as son goku.

Aside from the Burst Limit game.
Sean Schemmel is such a legend for not only fighting to get the full Son Goku in the speech, but for using it in the most perfect, natural and most impactful place
More of a legend for replacing the speech. The original wasn’t bad, but felt like could’ve been way better for when he first became a super saiyan
I guess you could you could call him a warrior, get it? Because he’s the warrior you’ve heard of in legends? No? Yeah, not the time.
When he said his full name I shit a brick
That's the first and only time he's said it in the english dub of the entire anime
SuperSaiyanLink2464 They paid for permission to use the full name. That's dedication for you.

"A warrior, pure of heart and awakened by fury" That line hits hard because the most gentle souls are always the ones holding back the most violence.
As the saying goes there are 3 things all wise men fear: The sea in a storm, a night with no moon, and the anger of a gentle man. 💪
You're right about that, if you provoke Goku, it'll be the last thing you ever do. 😉
Calling himself Son Goku was already badass enough. But imagine if he actually referred to himself as Kakarot here?
Edit: Holy fuck this comment blew up-
I Hate Chairs it would be kind of weird because he didn’t want anything to do with his Saiyan name mostly because of Raditz (he learned it from Raditz) and that he abducted Gohan so that makes/made him disgusted of his affiliation with him because they’re brothers and all that
And now I don’t know why I typed all this but I don’t want to remove it so yeah...
I Hate Chairs It would kind of take away from the speech. When saying “Son Goku” he is kind of showing his pride of being raised on earth. He really disregarded his Saiyan heritage, only until recently when he called himself kakarot to broly in the broly movie

Yes. Chris Ayres' Freeza is hands down the best voice across all dubs, he really nailed down the character.
this frieza sounds dumb.
Yeah it does. It sounds like some weird British dude. I feel like i'm watching the ocean dub or something.
***** Um, no.. Linda young is the original Freiza. She actually sounded scary unlike this new guy playing freiza. So the old smoking grandma fit better
Mitch You see, but the reason Freeza is scary is because he is a huge powerful tyrant, but he is very polite and "royal" in his demeanor, specially how the thinks less of everyone around him.
The old voices wanted to make him into more of a "space monster", but it's not really his appearance or voice that should be scary, it's how cold blooded he is. Ryusei Nakao's voice in japanese also hints that it's what they intended.
Chris Ayres' Freeza is much more coherent with Freeza's personality

I love how goku is proud of being a saiyan in this moment while still keeping his ideals as someone who was raised on earth. It’s not just a battle to save the universe he made sure that frieza knows that as a saiyan he’s making it personal.
RIP Chris Ayres. It was amazing to finally have not only a good English Freeza, but one that rivaled and maybe even at times surpassed Ryusei Nakao (at least in Kai for sure).
It's kind of crazy how time passes. I am now quite nostalgic for Kai and the hype around FUNimation going back and redubbing it with more accurate scripts. At least among the fanbase that could look past their Toonami memories. I am not saying people cannot like what they want, because I get nostalgic for the old Z dubs even with and sometimes because of their flaws, but the Kai dub got so much blind hate just because it was different from what people were used to, and it sold poorly as a result.
I've seen the first 2 seasons of DBZ Kai and the 1st season of DBZ. I take Kai because I like the voice acting and it's not long like the original. Good thing I got all 7 seasons on DVD. Plus DBZ Kakarot on the Switch. Almost reminds me of Kai.
"finally have a good English frieza"
I mean cmon, the old version was good. Lindas voice for frieza is amazing
@@GetShrekd shes… ok
but realistically Chris seriously captures the essence of Frieza perfectly. Like, he IS Frieza.
@@GetShrekd nah man she’s ight
If you see at the original dub, when goku smirked and said "i am the hope of the universe" it sounded like he said that without any feelings, like a robot i would say. Where as the kai version, you can sense his feelings when he said "you havent figured it out yet"
Ayyub Ramli exactly people hate on me because I like Kai. I grew up on Kai this has feeling in characters Voice's. I get it the old classic one was the best one at the time but this is the new generation the music and animation quality is the best I have ever seen and will always be the best
Black just ignore the haters bro, they just dont realise that this is not the 90s.
Ayyub Ramli Lmao dab on them haters???!!😂😂😂 but I will always love Kai besides dragon ball super is based off of kai
xD
I’m glad I’m not the only one who feels like Kai is he better version. While I love the original cast, their performance I Kai is 100x better than the original Z broadcast. The original sounds like the voice actors trying to hard to match the lip flaps of the characters.
This version is SO much better delivered than the original. Beautiful speech
Bruh this is the original. Funimation DBZ dub was an English parody
@@Thang-qo4ow no no you got it wrong this is Kai not the original which is just dragon ball z
@@discodjdj2300 Kai is just a remastered version of the og Japanese Z dub, which is the adaptation of Toriyama's original Dragon Ball manga, which is the original.The old Funimation dub was something they made up.
@@Thang-qo4ow oh I actually didn’t know that thank you
The "original" didn't undersood Goku. He was never wanted to be a hero, or someone who act with justice in the mind. He's just someone who fight, the Saiyan from earth, Son Goku.
Man, thanks for the nice memory
This is the best version of that speech. Hands down
Yep, now prepare for the Z Dub drones coming
Original: I am Superman
Kai: I'm goku
*Son Goku
I'm the Super Saiyan, Son Goku!!!
Z dub wasn't Superman,and at least it didn't change his name. His name is Goku not son. Son I his LAST name. But Kai's dub says Goku is his last name wtf XD
@@fridaynightnicktoons6885 son isn't part of his name lmao Japan call him son gokou and gokou san
@@fridaynightnicktoons6885 - He was saying it the Japanese way - last name, first name.
"Cant you tell freezer? It’s just like what Vegeta said."
"No you f*cking don't!"
Much better than the Superman speech from the old dub.

Now, SSJ is just a tingle in the ass.. I mean back.
JOEL BRITTO 😂😂😂😂
If George Takei was a SSJ, it would be a tingling in the ass lol.
Yeah i miss the old days....
Aight lemme just feel the tingling in my ass to go super saiyan
Not trying to be a super apologist but hey man, I feel like if Goku was thinking:
*God Damn I'm kicking ass and my neck feeling good as hell.*
RIP Chris Ayres legendary
Anyone that prefers old Funimation Z to Funimation Kai is insane.
I literally grew up in the early 2000s with DBZ and it holds lots of nostalgic and sentimental value to me... BUT Kai is simply better. The OST, the voice acting and the new and improved script is just chef kisses. It elevated what I already loved and it brought it closer to the manga.
Thank you Akira toriyama, gone but never forgotten. 🙏🏿🕊️
LOL IT FINALLY HAPPENED COPYRIGHT CLAIM GUYS
LimitBreaker77 Noooo
+LimitBreaker77 Fair use right back at their ass.
+Zalkari Ament Fair use doesn't apply here, I'm blatantly showing a direct scene from the show without explicit permission xD. Anyway, it's only affecting Japan, and I haven't heard any further info ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
LimitBreaker77 well you're covered. :P
+LimitBreaker77 I really don't get the idea behind copyright claims for small scenes like this all it does is expose the show to more people.
“I am the warrior pure of heart and awakened by fury”
The most powerful Dragon Ball Z scene in my opinion. Goku finally accepts who he is and what his purpose is. He shows the courage to stand up to one of the most malicious fictional villains in history. Only few villains rival Frieza in terms of how evil they are like the Joker. This scene can be a great motivational video for anyone to stand up to a bully or a powerful egomaniacal tyrant in real life.
1:52 that chuckle....man you can't replace Chris. Stuff like that is what sets him apart from anyone who follows. Frieza’s admittance of Goku being a Super Saiyan is just so great. The Yamamoto score….damn it I wish they never figured out all the plagiarism until later
Honestly this entire scene is perfect in my eyes, the voice acting, the music, it all just clicks with me
1:52 - Voldemort laugh.
"I never there might be truth behind those ridiculous old stories."
Then why did Frieza blow up Planet Vegeta? For kicks?
Actually, that's entirely plausible. That sounds just like something he would do.
Which was shown later that that was not the case...
DeathCast Productions Though considering Frieza it WOULD be in character.
It's called lying.
+DeathCast Productions we all saw the Bardock movie. He definitely did it.
Well it is now cannon that he did it because Beerus couldn't be assed to do his job himself :P
*I AM THE SUPER SAIYAN, SON GOKU!*
That gave me chills.
The voice acting, the music, MEGA CHILLS
Fr
So glad they fixed the translation error of his speech
Me too, his speech in the Kai version sounds more like him! 🤩
DBZ is one of the most timeless stories ever told
when people talk about the Kai dub being superior to Z, scenes like this is exactly what they’re talking about.
They did such an amazing job with this oh my
He is HIM. He trained for (I forgot how long) all for this moment. He truly is the Legendary Super Saiyan, SON GOKU!
My God, he is the hope of the omniverse.
Basically he is
The alpha and the amiga . . .
@@geoffreysorkin5774 *Omega sorry that i have to be “that guy” but my inner Greek was having a meltdown
@@Greekhalo2010 It was a TFS joke.
@@maskedcrusaderings if that’s the case then well....we’re in danger
I don't care when it is I watch this clip, but hearing Sean Schemmel say, " I am the Super Saiyan, Son Goku," always gives me goosebumps, everytime
This was amazing, with Goku’s inspiring dialogue and the fantastic background instrumental called Yushi No Gaisen. Sean really did a great job, and it brings tears to my eyes of how inspiring and amazing this is
Okay. As much as I love the OG for it's nostalgia and OST, the DBZK version hits as well as good. And this line gives me the smile.
"What's the matter, Frieza? I can't be harder to destroy than a planet. Right?"
"I am the Super Saiyan, Son Goku!" ... I love that line, and I love that they used Goku's whole name for it too
0:33 I think that's what gave frieza the idea to destroy namek
I love it when goku embrace his saiyan side
Me too! 😍
R.I.P. to Toryiama
