Android 16 was actually the strongest fighter at this point in the arc. Stronger than goku, Vegeta, piccolo fused with kami and stronger than cell after absorbing thousands of people.
@@DLxxx I mostly said that since the head contained his main system and since it got hit by Cell's blast, his circuitry was so damaged to the point that he could barely move and thus, his attacks at that state could't even make a single scratch.
This was ways one of the coolest looking moves of the series to me, that fact that he basically rips his arms off to perform it just makes it look even better
I love him so much, one of my favorite characters, but I don't see the point in bringing him back. He played his part, and even if he came back It wouldn't be the same 16
Android 18 - "Sixteen what do you think you're doing?! Come back, you'll be killed!" *Android 16 - "That does not matter. Life is Good, but living in Fear is not my idea of Living"*
I remember as a teenager when I was in high school, was a big big fan of Dragon Ball Z. It was being broadcasted in Cartoon Network that time and was already a big fan of most of the charachter, used to collect the stickers of them while getting back from school. This was a big trend in the school back then. The show was just through the Frieza Saga and I came across a sticker pack of Androids Saga. I was a bit bamboozled if it actually was from Dragon Ball Z or not! because the charachter looked a bit different in style then the rest but I instantly fell in love with them. Android 18 ended up being my first serious crush and couldn't get her out of my mind for a long time and Android 16 is one of the coolest drawn charachter of the show. His neon green armor is undoubtedly the coolest of the show and so his figure and charachter. I really hope he get's a comeback in the show somehow and sticks along with the Z force.
Funny enough I think #16 would notice how different Goku is and how he's pure of heart. Therefore they would not fight in that event. #16 might even spontaneously combust, or shut down.
@@hitkid2456 He would had do what his programming told him to do. Even after being de-programmed he's still very rude to Goku for no real reason aside not liking him. In fact, it's a shame he wasnt used as a "villain" more. The idea of a peacefull, benevolent robot than then suddenly turns into a deadly machine just to kill one specific guy is both original and hillarious
To this very moment when I watch this it sends adrenaline through my body, same with Tien doing his TriBeam repeatedly. Just like Vegetas final atonement makes me tear up as a 27 year old grown man to this day too. Fucking love this show
Never let Android 16 work the grill at a cookout ....... He'll always over cook the meat!😆 But seriously, 16 had to be written out of the story. Think about it...... How much raw power did he have to slam imperfect cell so hard into the ground that he made a crater that deep?! Makes me wonder if he could have killed Goku if the androids had found him at this point in the saga!🤔
I believe that Android 16 second propose (apart from killing Goku) is the counter-part of Cell, like Dr.Gero design him for Anti-Cell, he cant be absorb, and cleary stronger than 1st form Cell.
16 was the reason Gohan was able to destroy cell once and for all. When he said he was going to destroy cell, he was telling the truth. I think he knew Gohan needed a little push to do it in the end.
Andriod 16 could have won the fight right here if he threw Cell into his own knee instead of to the ground. That should break Cell's back. And then proceed to rip off his head like promised. In the worse case scenario, Andriod 16 does not get tired, while Cell will get weaker as the fight drag on. Silly 17 and 18 had to stand there not moving a step the entire fight... if only they had fled, no way Cell could have won.
If only the other androids listened to 16 and left. He was so logical and straight to the point, unlike 17 and 18 who were arrogant and cocky. Even when they realised cell was a huge threat they still didn’t run.
Remember Cell was destroyed because 16 helped Gohan to snap. Dr Gero's creation was his undoing. I love it. Everyone gets a good contribution too. But 16 is a major player from the word go
@@narukunn5152 Guru's theme starts around 0:25 - but actually, corrected, this is second to last appearance of that track. They play it when Goku asks Gohan to fight Cell.
I come from the future 10 years after this was uploaded and We still enjoy dbz. I watched on spanish, which they call this attack sonic arms (Brazos sonicos) and in japanese is hell flash (heru,flash u ) and eng blasters fire
Now that 17 & 18 are close again and 17 should be more involved when Super comes back, can we revive android 16 so the whole gang can be back😭 they can hang out on 17’s island
16 screams that his hell flash was not strong enough to finish off cell, maybe he had other attacks up his sleeve. I doubt we fully saw what 16 was capable of.
16 was the strongest, and he used that power for good 16 never was a bad person the moment he woken up he silently observed the world around him and in the time that he was alive already had so much fascination for life.
This was the original dub. Hell's flash didn't come until the video games labeled the move. Like how the Final Kamehameha was a video game move only, and now it's in the anime.
16 knew the threat cell was and instead of 18 and 17 getting out of dodge they stayed there in aw shout out to Bruce faulconer also couldn’t imagine growing up with kai
16 had not shown that he could launch his fists up to that point, and none of the other androids possessed this ability, so it was as much a surprise attack as it could have been.
@@danielmaster8776 They constantly throw and dodge punches at each other at the speed of light and he couldn't dodge this? Hand to hand fights like they do is constantly full of surprise attacks.
@@imperialmarchinhumanbowels5726 He could have been stunned from the first 3 consecutive attacks. Being fast doesn't mean a character can't be stunned
@@lancekemal8989These characters constantly react with the speed of sounds to blows and block them and Cell clearly had enough time to make a surprised face and clearly wasn't stunned as he was charging towards 16.
Goku at this point was not stronger than Vegeta when he fought and lost to Andriod 18. So 16 is way stronger than Goku right there. Goku only boosted his power after he trained in the time chamber.
A reminder that Dbz uses arbitrary numbers instead of feats because if that was going to do the smallest amount of damage it wouldve blown up the earth in a spectacular fashion. If you uses you eyes and Dbz logic this should hurt about as much as a raindrop.

The music que after 16 slams Cell imo creates one of the most emotionally impactful moments in the entire show. Funimation dub music always brought the feels man.
The music was amazing during this scene. The emotional weight and atmosphere conveyed through synth based scores of this Caliber are second to none
"Goodbye planet Namek" is the theme where he fires the blast. It appears on Namek Saga a lot and with Gohan vs Cell beam battle.
Android 16 was actually the strongest fighter at this point in the arc. Stronger than goku, Vegeta, piccolo fused with kami and stronger than cell after absorbing thousands of people.
Android 16 was my favorite android. Wish he could have been brought back
Too bad he quickly became the weakest fighter in the arc after getting a painful headache with that blast.
@@fernandogomestorres2468 Not even the weakest. Krillin, Tien, and Yancha were still well below him. We also don't know how much Piccolo improved.

Android 16 is such an underrated character. Always liked him. I wish they'd bring him back.
You say he's underrated but Android 16 is and always has been fairly popular with the largest herd of the DB fanbase. I wouldn't call that underrated.

The legendary “namek is about to blow” music (in 5 perpetual minutes)
That background music is what made DBZ that memorable.
The music, the art style, the sound design, the voice acting. Its a masterpiece
For me was the scream he did when he was about to throw him to the ground, just badass

Making all those holes in the ground for Cell to hide after it was established he was a sneaky SOB was probably not the best tactical decision.
Dragaon ball should revive the Android 16
He is way cooler than anybody in the series
Sunita Verman 😶
you can’t revive 16
@@thenexthndrxx I'm sure the dragon could
Opera Phantom Face I don’t think you can use the dragon balls to revive somebody that doesn’t have a soul
You can definitely bring him back. Rebuild or whatever fancy word they need to use. Shenron could definitely rebuild him
I think this inspired tien to go hard on semi perfect cell and not be deterred by his limitation.
Another one of the best DBZ fights that didn't involve any of the saiyans

Never let Android 16 work the grill at a cookout ....... He'll always over cook the meat!😆

He definitely would have. Goku was weaker than 17 or 18 separately at this point, 16 is overkill for Goku
@@betterthanemril988
Exactly! At the time of The Saga, Android 16 was completely out of Goku's League!😬
Notice how he and 16 never faced off.😏
Once he got out he saw some birds and decided Goku was chill

I'm Pretty Sure That Flash Did Nothing To Cell
@@cellandbuuaremyfavoritedbz1542
It did some damage, but not a significant amount.

Perhaps, but remember that Cell has the uber version of Piccolo's healing factor. So I'm not entirely sure it would've stuck.
And to think this attack was actually meant for Goku… Christ man 🤯

@@johnhavoc3085Goku would have absolutely lost. 16 at this point was the strongest fighter and Goku was just recovering from his virus.

@@johnhavoc3085even 17 or 18 would have been to much for goku.
Could you imagine if Vegeta fought 16 instead of 18? (who was arguably the weakest of the 3 with 17 slightly stronger)

If only the other androids listened to 16 and left. He was so logical and straight to the point, unlike 17 and 18 who were arrogant and cocky. Even when they realised cell was a huge threat they still didn’t run.
What 17 and 18 should have done was listened to 16 and left far away while the hell flash was attacking cell
If only Bulma went to combat zone and picked up all remaining pieces of Android 16's head and body part he would be downloaded into a new built body.
Remember Cell was destroyed because 16 helped Gohan to snap. Dr Gero's creation was his undoing. I love it. Everyone gets a good contribution too. But 16 is a major player from the word go
This is how they censored it but in kai he says he’ll flash it also in other stuff like games and just how does that blast make so much destruction
I'll still never understand how people can hate on Bruce Faulconer
