      Totally Not Mark *It's fun when Super referenced the Abridged. They referenced Popo with the whole "banned thing" with Vegeta and the HTC. They even zoomed in on the eyes. They referenced Ghost Nappa. And having Kami and Nail talk to Piccolo during the ToP is a stretch, but still.*

    my fav moment of DBZA is the fact that Perfect Cell and Yamcha are basically buddies, Yamcha is underappreciated in the series in general, the fact that Cell appreciates Yamcha is amazing!
    PERFECT CELL: Perfect. And Yamcha! What a surprise! How's it going man?
    YAMCHA: Oh! Uh, good. I brought towels and water bottles.
    PERFECT CELL: And like that, you've already contributed more than Vegeta.

      Random? Piccolo sees the destructive nature of a father demeaning [edit]*his son* and chooses to use that moment to make a point of being kind to Gohan as his, despite how hard, father figure.
      You can be a hard father, without being a fuck and this moment really illustrates that distinction.

      If you watch it again you’ll see the joke was a call back. They mention how Yamcha kills himself in the future, and goku reassures him that he’s not alone. Then Vegeta says something about “not talking to bastards” and Piccolo reassures him. Not entirely random 😁

    Yamcha: "I was stabbed and blown up too. And dumped by the only girl I ever had!"
    Krillin: "Same. But you know the difference? When mine left she took all my money. When yours left, she took all *HER* money."
    Yamcha: ".........."

      I like how they made a point of "deconstructing" Goku's Idiot Hero character. It's definitely exaggerated, but you can't forget he did so many incredibly stupid things in canon (like, well, giving Cell a FRICKING Senzu Bean). This also allows the other characters (like Gohan) to be played as aware of the fact that Goku's an idiot. A well-intentioned incredibly strong one, but an idiot nonetheless.

    Why does no one else ever learn instant transmission? Goku didn't learn it; he got it from eating sick aliens. The others don't have a bunch of sick aliens to eat.
    Why not wish back King Kai? Yamcha goofed when phrasing the wish.
    How did Trunks survive 18's blast, despite taking a huge blast at point-blank range and being too weak to stand? 17 got in the way.
    Why didn't Mr. Popo transport Goku straight to the Saiyans? He was makin' toast.

    the best change that TFS made that you didnt mention was Kami fusing with Piccolo and the weight that it held. Kami's reluctance in the original material seemed to be out of his worry about cell, but TFS made it into a sorrow over losing all of his own free will and the fact he had to rejoin with what was an evil side of himself.

      never liked dbza Gohan. Not only because he isn't funny, but because I find him boring too. In the original series I really saw gohan as a character. Because in my opinion, we can feel more emotions coming from the characters like sadness, anger, melancholy. Much of this is lost in dbza by treating everything as a joke. In conclusion, I still prefer Gohan turning ssj2 against cell in the original series, With the original soudtrack it gets even better.

      The Spirit Bomb is the least reliable technique in the series. It doesn't take out Vegeta (and it hits Gohan during that fight, who just kinda bounces it back). It doesn't take out Frieza. It implodes when Goku tries it on Android 13. Future Trunks finally makes it work by using it as a sword instead of a blast. Not only does it not work on Jiren, when it hits Goku it actually makes him stronger.
      Also it finally took out Buu. Not a great track record though.

    Great parody is an act of love. It's from people who know and love the source, but can still recognize the sillier aspects and plot wholes. The parody emphasizes this while still maintaining the great parts of the original. It's why Star Trek fans love Galaxy Quest. It even went the extra yard in turning everything they made fun of around into an awesome moment later.

      I agree. While the Ocean to OG Funimation Dub is my favorite version of DBZ, DBZA is still fucking hilarious and well written at times. IMHO Early episodes haven't aged that well but they started some great gags in the series so fuck it but once we get to the second half of Namek, we get stronger character moments, Nail being part of the series and improving Piccolo, Krillin and 18, Vegeta, Tien and Yamcha along with other side characters getting more love and character respectively, list goes on.
      I may not follow the canon of the series over the official one but there are parts of it I wish made it into the official material along with stuff mentioned in interviews like the Androids.

    DBZA is the effect of having what in italy we call "the sense of after". After you do or perceive a thing and start thinking deeply about it, you can see how things turned out and how it could have been done better, beyond personal tastes, while in development you either consciously or not made decisions that cut off or clobbered some things. And thing is, it's extremely hard for companies to do it even while realizing it, since they all have an host of bindings they have to respect, but fanbases do not - while having their own issues by themselves.
    DBZA it's indeed a very good thing.

      Confermo...conoscendo una cosa e vedendola per come è cominci a pensare “come avrei proceduto io?” ed Abridged è letteralmente la creazione di questi ragazzi, un gruppo che ha voluto riscrivere dragon ball per renderlo meno da bambini e più da adulti. Questo perché un ragazzino si fermerebbe all’ilarità di, non so, Krilin che si masturba nella grotta per Bulma, o goku che sforna muffin sulla nave di Frieza, ma l’adulto vede le cose più profonde e apprezza la qualità del loro lavoro, perché Abridged è un piccolo capolavoro.
      Ad esempio io ho riflettuto molto nella scena dove Piccolo fa quel discorso a goku, chiedendogli “hai mai chiesto a tuo figlio, almeno una volta, cosa gli piace e cosa no?” E goku dice “ma lui ha passato un anno con me nella stanza dello spirito e del tempo, credevo gli piacesse” e piccolo gli fa giustamente notare che Gohan non lo ha fatto per allenarsi ma per trascorrere tempo con lui, suo padre, che ha passato metà del tempo morto e l’altra metà ad allenarsi da solo, e a volte entrambe le cose contemporaneamente (bellissima anche questa precisazione dell’entrambe le cose)...per un uomo che ha vissuto col padre spesso assente per lavoro, lontano come rapporto o del tutto assente (morto o cose simili) quella scena ha un peso notevole. Ammetto di essermi sentito sinceramente male per gohan in quel momento

    Frieza (made funnier but definitely still sadistic), Nappa (sure goofy but way more relevant than just being a mucsle head), Piccolo (with his internal dialogs and more down to earth demeanor), and Tien (made a very real character, and out-right points out what he thinks of others) are the characters best changed and still themselves made by team four star.
    Also I really just love the scene where Gohan turns SSJ2 and when Goku tries to get him to stop torturing Cell Gohan just throws all of Goku's dumb choices right back at him. That dialog right there should have been in the actual series.

    You missed my favorite - and what I think, best - change they made, though you might have deliberately not touched on it since it's in THE finale.
    One of the pivotal end moments of the Cell saga is the Father/Son Kamehameha, which finishes off Cell. In the original, everyone fires energy at Cell from other angles to distract him and weaken his concentration, thus allowing Gohan's Kamehameha - amplified by Goku sending him energy from Otherworld - to destroy the evil bug man.
    In Abridged, however, two major differences. One, the big one, Goku sends no energy, and his pep talk is about how Gohan alone can step up and take Cell, standing on his own two feet...which REALLY shows the 'passing of the torch' that part was meant to be. Second, ONLY Vegeta throws energy to distract Cell, which shows both part of his growth (willing to be an aid to someone else's victory, and his grief over Trunks) and the difference in how they've established everyone's strength.
