absolutely the best way to cap off that joke. a shame they never got there.... I honestly really wanted to see their take on super buu, especially given that they dont particularly like him
Hearing Vegeta/Lani say "Even you, best buddy" has given me a catharsis that I've been waitjng for YEARS to have happen. I'm so grateful for all of this.
Lani is amazing! Krillen "Vegeta NO!" Vegeta "VEGETA YYEEEESSSSSS!" I love Lani's Vegeta scream. He makes me forget what Chis Sabats voice sounds like. No disrespect
man so true, didn't expect them to do a few bits for this but they knocked it out of the park. Lani will always remain as the best VA for Vegeta that I ever heard, mad props to him but all of them are fantastic.
You gotta think he realized that he got a second chance to really give this character (who he has admittedly poured a lot of his heart and soul into writing and performing) a proper goodbye. When they were recording the cell saga, they didn’t know that it would be their last time playing those characters. They didn’t get to savor those moments. But with this project they got their second chance. And I am CONVINCED that Lani wrote this script and said to himself “I am going to fucking destroy my throat getting the perfect final scream, because that’s what vegeta deserves.”
To me it seems partially that, and potentially also an expression of trauma from being a six-year-old getting whaled on by the INCREDIBLY FLAMBOYANT Ginyu Force, given the similarities in theatrics between The Great Saiyaman and the Ginyu Force!
I don't mind him playing super hero. Goku is basically a 50/50 mix of Superman and Sun Wukong. Super hero themes are baked into the franchise. I have no issue with that. It'd honestly be a pretty cool idea to explore. But, it's just the way he went about it that I don't like. At all. The stupid costume and the Ginyu Force poses... There's a way to go about it and make Gohan cool and a way to go about it to make him seem incredibly lame and cringe-inducing. If you just changed his dialogue a tad, the choreography, and the costume, I doubt anyone would have had any issue with it. Yes, sure. It makes sense that a kid who didn't have a normal childhood and who grew up around socially dysfunctional adults wouldn't have a conventional concept of cool. But this is a franchise about super humans, aliens, and robots shooting lasers out of their hands. It wouldn't have strained the suspension of disbelief to at least make him seem cool.
Kinda feels like Goku contributed to the conversation just to keep anyone from looking at him so he could get a real fight that day lol Goku thinking ahead again like he did back in Cell by allowing Vegeta to use the Chamber first
Ok lets do this 8:34 Great Saiyaman 14:31 Maron 18:02 The Big C 20:42 Somethings you dont dodge 27:40 Trunks vs Goten pew pew 35:05 My Arm 53:07 Majin Best Buddy 1:00:00 Making it worse 1:04:01 Goku vs Vegeta 1:09:52 Majin Buu 1:14:01 My Victory 1:16:03 Ummm Dabura 1:29:17 VEGETA YESSSSSSSSS!!!!! YOU PEOPLE ARE WELCOME!!!
The thing about Vegeta allowing himself to relapse and go Majin and why it feels weird and out of character... _it is._ Because he's _forcing_ it. He's forcing himself to go over the top Evil to try to reclaim his old ways, it isn't a natural growth of his character; he's trying to _deny_ his growth. And that's why it doesn't stick and he ultimately comes to his senses and goes to confront Boo.
As a kid watching it, I didn't really understand it that much and I was pissed the fight ended abruptly. But after getting old, I kinda understand what he wanted. It's like something you always wanted since then but never get and now that you think you have a chance to get it, a lot of things are in the way. So you force it. People get pissed and you act like a child. Then you realized, yeah I'm too old for this shit. So he makes up for his mistakes.
As much as I love and cried over your multi language tribute to Vegeta, hearing Lani finally have the chance to give the Prince his magnum opus after 15 years of parodies actually hit harder.
hearing vegeta earnestly say "god i missed you" to kakarot is so fricking funny but at the same time heartwarming because of just the pure "I hate that i love you" energy
Of all the things in this video, I really, REALLY, liked Vegeta's tone when saying Gohan was out of shape at 24:55. There was no malice, or arrogance, or pride that we're so used to hearing. The way he spoke to Gohan in a gentle, yet firm manner sounded like a genuine advice and concern for a friend.
I'll be honest, hearing Lani saying that "Even you best buddy" line made me cry. I've been wanting this for years, thought that with DBZA S4's cancellation we'll never get, but it happened. Thank you Mark for making this happen
That whole scene was a tour de fucking force from Lani. The Krillin "Vegeta no!" especially got me. They have the bit about Vegeta going to his BBQ's pointing to their developed relationship over the time skip. That line isn't because Vegeta's being an idiot, like it normally is. Krillin just doesn't want Vegeta to die. It's incredible and the fact that Lani isn't a major player in current VA's is a fucking travesty.
@@XxArsenykxX They also had movie nights, so given how Goten and Trunks play together constantly, Gohan might have visited Vegeta for quite a while. It's safe to say Team Three Star became very good friends.
TFS fell off years ago, betrayed their fans, and now they toss us these tablescraps like we're some old battered dog? No. Proud is not the word I would use. TFS: TotalFuckingShit.
@@prospero2405 makes sense. Out of the cast, they've been through probably the most in various ways, minus Goku himself (although, he's clearly not really bothered due to his personality), much of it being together, so, it makes sense that they would have grown as a sort of group as things mellow out.
We may never get the full DBZA Buu Saga, but a few clips where the TFS team go full ham is a worthy consolation prize. Lani especially does not hold back one bit! Love the Krillin and 18 prank as well. Thank you Mark for twisting the collective TFS arms hard enough to get everyone back and thank you for strapping the big pants on to do a DBZ review, it's always great to be reminded why we love this show so much.
Everyone is talking about the TFS parts (which, fair) but nobody talking about the top notch story/character analysis. I seriously learned some interesting insites into Vegeta's character. Thanks mark.
@@BradTheThird I've been watching Mark since he put together the One Piece videos. I am absolutely here for his takes, I never considered the fact that Vegeta never saw Trunks come to his aid until he saw the child version do it in the Buu Saga, AMAZING.
@@babanooWell that was the intent since IIRC when Season 4 wasn't canned, they mentioned how light they were gonna make Buu compared to Cell which was a love letter to the series hence why that season was as good as it was.
One of my favorite moments in all of DBZ is seeing the Tournament announcer recognize Goten and have an instant cute little flash back to Goku vs Roshi. Its easy to forget this guy has been along for the ride right along with the readers for all the weird things that happen at these tournaments
I've waited for that line-read for so long and never thought we'd hear Nick actually do it. Of course I'm gonna cry happy tears that he finally got to do it.
I love how he's even more unhinged seven years later since he's...well, dead, he has been dead and training constantly for almost an entire decade. So he's more disconnected than ever from reality.
This really is the closest thing to an abridged Buu Arc we’re gonna get. Gotta thank Mark for bringing it somewhat to fruition. Love TFS and your reviews Mark! Excited to see Part 2!
The Buu arc is full of some really great moments, but falls apart in the connective tissue. Honestly, if TFS did the same thing they did in the Android and Cell arc, they could probably turn Buu into something really amazing. ...Unfortunately it could never become the Gohan-led saga that it really should have been, but I think having Goku fight an opponent who's more of a force of nature than an antagonist could be really interesting, and give him time to actually reflect and grow as a character. Not to mention finishing up Vegeta's arc, and doing all sorts of wacky shit with Mr. Satan, which are both already things the Buu saga does fairly well.
Yeah... I'm smiling to see some glimpses into what could've been, for sure. But deep down it still stings knowing season 4 is definitely never happening ever.
Nothing was stopping them from doing this 5 years ago, so I have no good will to offer any of them. They chose to abandoned the fans. I see no reason to give them anything but scorn.
16:20 Both Videl and Gohan grew up in their fathers' shadows, yet they had entirely different experiences. Where Videl struggled to be noticed at all, Gohan repeatedly suffered and nearly died time and time again because he was Goku's son. (Getting kidnapped by Piccolo, fighting Frieza, dealing with Cell... the list goes on.) No wonder he tries to hide -- he learned early on that his very existence is a challenge to his father's enemies.
1:11:54 to be fair to the supreme Kai. Until about 10 years ago frieza and his forces were the strongest beings in the universe. Since Supreme Kai is millions of years old, this is like being out for a day and then all of a sudden like half a dozen guys eons stronger than frieza show up, and another half dozen that are arguably around that level. He has every right to be taken off guard by earths power, especially considering that 12ish years ago the strongest thing on earth was like 1/3 of a saibaman.
“Even you, best buddy” that line had no business hitting me as hard as it did. Thank you TeamFourStar and thank you Mark. I’ll just wipe the tears out of my eyes now…
I'm surprised TeamFourStar didn't make a BuuBit for that scene where Sharpner asked Gohan why he didn't dodge. It's literally their longest running gag.
Maybe I'm the one thinking too much about this, but maybe it had something to do with Gohan consciously allowing himself to get hit rather than running the risk of leveling a 10 story building with a pop fly.
@@KigaiOkasuthey could've play around it by making Gohan thinking deep inside how to play that to not look more suspicious , without even noticing Sharpner already threw the ball.
Vegeta's speech at that moment made me realize that he almost never calls anyone from Earth by the name in DBZ Abridged. It's always Bald One, Namekian, Boy, Woman, Triclops, Black Man, etc. Tho he does say Kakarot and Goku is fine with that.
@@arthurfilion5992 Krillin's ex-girlfriend was also named Maron (which makes it look strange that his and 18's daughter has a similar name). But they named the kid after 18's grandmother and together make jokes pretending 18 doesn't know about Krillin's ex.
27:56 Trunks thinking intensively about the fight and analysis and goten signing baby shark in his head is the best thing I think I have ever witnessed
Literally a 26-year-old man and I’m crying at the end of that. TeamFourStar knew we wanted to hear him call Goku best buddy at least one time. What a fitting ending. Thank you Mark. Thank you for bringing back a small piece of a franchise. We love so dearly. This is without question. The absolute best work you have ever done.
29, and definitively lost a few tears too. What an amazing documentary. This ending was pure emotion and phenominal. It felt like even TFS didn't want to "shitpost" on this, but rather give it their heart and soul at it's purest. It was amazing.
So cool that vegeta saying “I’m using his name” calls back so effortlessly to him always saying “Baldy”, “Bald One”, or some other name for krillin. Sure, DBZA didn’t come back for Buu in its entirety, but I feel like this gave the fans, and possibly even TFS, a way to experience Buu in a way that felt good for them. Thanks Mark ❤
1:29:17 I feel like he also should have called Piccolo and Goten by name here I mean, Goten wouldn't hear it, but Piccolo would And then after he's done baring his soul to Piccolo for a bit he'd say "Alright, get out of here with the crotch spawns, Namekian."
On behalf of the famdom, thank you for collaborating withTeam Four Star. There were a lot of moments we wanted to see coming to life, and we certainly weren't disappointed ❤
God bless Lani's vocal chords for that final Vegeta scream. He's talked in the Commentary videos about occasionally hurting his voice doing those intense screams, but that... That was phenomenal.
Everyone is talking about all of the TFS parts, and they are amazing, but can we appreciate how good the actual analysis is? It’s really made me think deep about the series, and brings up topics i never would have thought of, i really enjoyed the entire video!
1:28:01 René García Miranda really gave us all latin american kids the performance of a life time, hearing him always makes me tear up like the first time
@@armoredsaiyan Yeah I will say that. I don't really like it. Buu's response was pretty good, and I like the idea of him acting a bit like Zeno in terms of personality. But I don't really like the whole "I am going to huge you now for the first time ever. Hug complete", and the rest of it. HOWEVER, that line "Even for you, best buddy", that one they did hit the nail right on the head. Keep the original, but change it to THAT line, and it's perfect.
@@naisagathefirstdestronmand8559 That "Even you , Best buddy" Hit me hard, I know DBZA is supposed to be silly but these are characterizations that we've known for over 15 years and that hit that perfect tone man
@@dawakat08I get what you're saying (or at least I think i do?) but to me a lot of these buu saga clips didn't really hit the right spots. And especially for that moment, it felt VERY OFF. I distinctly recall that TFS did want comedy, but did explicitly say they wanted to keep the serious moments serious. And the "Even you best buddy" is the perfect blend there. It's a funny line out of context, but it makes sense for the character and does actually serve to be quite emotionally powerful for us who have context, as we all can clearly see (and feel). But the rest of the stuff before it felt very out of tone with the scene. To me, it like a lot of the other buu saga clips felt more like early placeholder stuff. Old ideas they had that had not yet been refined. With all that being said, it is very cool that we did get these. And having long made peace with the fact we never will get season 4, I have always been curious as to what their plans where for it, because surely there was ideas. And these little glimpses are more than enough to get their ideas. And I am thankful to see them.
I wonder if 18 threatened him about using Krillin's name, or if Krillin just eventually said "can we be real here? Your kid is swimming in my pool and your wife is my childhood friend, maybe use my name." Or maybe Trunk's started calling Krillin ' the bald one' and Vegeta realized he caused that. So much potential with that single line.
@@benjamingardner3314that last one could be right but indirectly. Trunk's got in trouble for it (both because Bulma didn't like it because he is her friend but also because future trunks and him got along well) bulma grounded young trunks then had the parenting talk about being a responsible father. Also.... Trunks isn't bald any more
"Trunks... You couldn't fathom the amount of dead men behind me!" is some of the most gangsta shit I have ever heard and it's from a fucking abridged anime series.
Now that we’ve all gushed at the TFS portion, let’s take a minute to relish in the stellar and fantastic review journey Mark takes us on. Taking us to storytelling depths we didn’t think possible for this show. You deserve so much more for this Mark. Thank you for what you and your team do
1:30:35 Words cannot describe this moment. This phrase. How long I’ve waited to hear it. Ever since the DBZA Cell Saga ended I imagined this moment. And how cool it would be. And now, thanks to Mark, it’s here. The moment we’ve all waited for. Vegeta’s final act. Lani’s final grand performance. And god was it worth the wait. I have repeated it countless times. Still can’t believe it’s real. This whole video, from the review to the TFS bits, is perfect. I love Dragon Ball, I love Team Four Star, I love Mark, and I fucking love the beauty that is Dragon Ball Abridged. Anyways I’m gonna go cry now
the Videl v Spopovich fight is one of the moments that sticks with me the most from my original watch of DBZ as a kid. the other two being first form cell drinking people, and then Buu killing everyone and then following them to the afterlife to kill them again. I remember being SO excited for the tournament, and goku vs vegeta, and was having a great time, and then the popovich fight started. you did a remarkable job describing why that fight was so psychologically intense. Videl suddenly loses all agency and everyone just has to watch
I've never had goosebumps like this from a "Vegeta No, Vegeta Yeeeeeeeeeeeees!" Great Work Mark, and thank you so much for bringing the TFS Crew on board for this. ❤
Goddamnit, I would love to see TFS, out of nowhere, drop a first episode of the Buu saga. I've been watching their commentary being released on FourStarBento and this is an absolute delight to watch with their humor thrown into the edits.
@@bodacious117 If you watch Bento, they say ahead of time that they scripted many gags to hit during the buu saga and never got to produce them. Half of the jokes here are word for word what they revealed in Bento. These guest appearances *are* buu abridged. More or less exactly how they discussed them in skype over a decade ago.
Mr René Garcia for the spanish version... I also think that the spanish line from the narrator at the dead of Vegeta is way better "... Su nombre era Vegeta, el principe de los Saiyajin... era sumamente orgulloso..."
Yup, these are a special taste of special. Portuguese, Japanese, english and of course, TFS, heard them all accross the years. It sends shivers down my spine. Who ever came up with that, is a genious.
There was also a part in french, surprisingly. France was the first western country in which DB and then DBZ became very popular (mangas in general), so it's a cool tribute.
I'm not surprised TFS was willing to contribute to this. You've definitely put in the work to produce great content these past years. Great stuff, as always!
21:03 Yes they cover this. Also I like to think this was her way of acknowledging that he is indeed interested in her. He could have dodged…but who would want to?
20:42 That whole scene, and especially her "no reason" was weirdly adorable. Romance, of all things, is something TFS does wonderfully in comparison to the original series. Their handling of Krillin & 18 finally made me understand the relationship in a way the original never did.
I can't even articulate how much joy went through my entire body having TFS back. MAN have I missed DBZA even more than I realized. I totally understood and respected their reasons for not doing the Buu Saga so I totally accepted that we were never gonna get it. I thank Gomikai himself that we get a part of it here. Lani finally doing Vegeta's sacrifice sent chills down my spine and nearly tears in my eyes. Thank you to Mark, Kaiser, Lani, everyone for giving us this! I'm kinda sad that this DBZ retrospective is ending I've enjoyed it so much, but I look forward to the next one.
Honestly, it's such a genius idea that I'm shocked Toriyama never got the same idea (even Toei missed the chance for this with Great Saiyaman 2 in Wrath of the Dragon).
@@noonethatspecial I never said they were copying DC. I was only comparing the dynamic to one that exists in DC... and also I said Team FourStar, not Toei?
@@noonethatspecialtoei did not make either kamen rider or dragon ball. Kamen rider - Shotaro Ishinomori Dragon ball - (I probably don’t have to tell you) akira toriyama
Damn man, why you gotta give me goosebumps for the entire Vegeta's Sacrifice section. That was beautiful, and the scene that firmly solidified Vegeta as my favourite character all those years ago.
53:08 Watching the TFS Commentary series and Lani talking about how the “I know your playing me” joke would have payed off if they went through with the Buu arc only for it to have that exact payoff here and now means we are living in the best timeline!! Bravo to Mark and TFS!!!
35:21 its a subtle gag, but I love seeing it back from Kai abridged 2, that awkward Chris Sabat Piccolo "ALL OF THEM?" line is so perfect to me, hilarious stuff.
"And even you, Best Buddy", Left me speechless in the moment! Completely amazing, I felt that deeply. TeamFourStar needs to come back and do season 4, even if its reduced down to several episodes!
I love that TFS kept Buu faithful to his original personality with a slight spin to it. Buu: "Existence... existence is but shallow question without answer...BUU MAKE YOU CHICKEN NUGGETS!!"
1:05:04 Vegeta’s “God I missed you” is so sincere and wholesome, specially when Goku is just "i'm just here for the fight, ya don't gotta justify it" 1:28:06 Hearing the Catalan dub actor completely took my by surprise I did not expect that whatsover, I loved it so much, thank you for giving him a spot amongst the great voice actors of the other dubs. 1:30:35 made me tear up the moment I realised the scene was coming. such a good video Mark, it made my weekend
1:30:35 This scene has literally made me teard up this made my Saturday far more better thank you Mark, and team four star for giving us a gift of history.
Not done yet: today something happened to me which has been... unerving ever since I saw this video it made me feel better that DBZA made (sort of) a comeback when i saw TFS Vegeta sacrifice it made me sadly happy, thank you best buddies.
Way back before they said they wouldn’t be doing the buu saga I remember in a video how excited Lani said he was for Vegeta’s big scene. So it was really sad he never got his moment. To see him finally get it here is heartwarming
1:28:02 I was already emotional at this moment but YOU HAD TO PUT THE LATIN SPANISH DUB TO MAKE IT EVEN SADDER FOR ME I did not expect this, thank you Mark

Never expected the "Vegeta YES" running gag to pay off in such an epic and deserved fashion all these years later, yet here we are.
It started as a gag, and ended with Vegeta's final roar of Yes- to becoming a decent man, and to making the ultimate sacrifice.
Funny thing is, i expected that moment if they did the Buu saga but it still made me tear up, the TFS crew are legends.
Multiple running jokes were given a beautiful pay off here:
- Vegeta no! VEGETA YES!!
- Hit him really hard
- Best buddy
“Like heaven? Pfffft”
“Ok, fuck you whatever.”
And “hug done. I’m a way better father than kakarot.”
Just like how “Bye, son” paid off in an absolutely heartbreaking way in part 2 of the finale.
Man Lani's performance as Vegeta will always be top notch. That VEGETA YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS scream is so perfect

You gotta think he realized that he got a second chance to really give this character (who he has admittedly poured a lot of his heart and soul into writing and performing) a proper goodbye. When they were recording the cell saga, they didn’t know that it would be their last time playing those characters. They didn’t get to savor those moments. But with this project they got their second chance. And I am CONVINCED that Lani wrote this script and said to himself “I am going to fucking destroy my throat getting the perfect final scream, because that’s what vegeta deserves.”

Krillin almost ended Vegeta life twice lol, first on Earth the second on Namek for Dende healing.
Vegeta owe Krillin his life I'd say
Honestly, I've never hated Great Sayian man. It felt like he was reclaiming some of the childhood he never got to have.
Yeah, same! It was goofy, sure, but I really liked his and Videl's dynamic.
the early arc of the buu saga has always been my fav. shame that Toriyama couldn't see it through
_THE_ Great Saiyaman. Lol
To me it seems partially that, and potentially also an expression of trauma from being a six-year-old getting whaled on by the INCREDIBLY FLAMBOYANT Ginyu Force, given the similarities in theatrics between The Great Saiyaman and the Ginyu Force!
I don't mind him playing super hero. Goku is basically a 50/50 mix of Superman and Sun Wukong. Super hero themes are baked into the franchise. I have no issue with that. It'd honestly be a pretty cool idea to explore. But, it's just the way he went about it that I don't like. At all. The stupid costume and the Ginyu Force poses...
There's a way to go about it and make Gohan cool and a way to go about it to make him seem incredibly lame and cringe-inducing. If you just changed his dialogue a tad, the choreography, and the costume, I doubt anyone would have had any issue with it.
Yes, sure. It makes sense that a kid who didn't have a normal childhood and who grew up around socially dysfunctional adults wouldn't have a conventional concept of cool. But this is a franchise about super humans, aliens, and robots shooting lasers out of their hands. It wouldn't have strained the suspension of disbelief to at least make him seem cool.
I find it hilarious that Masako was laughing when he said 'oh no' when the Supreme Kai asked if Vegeta had any darkness in him.
Kinda feels like Goku contributed to the conversation just to keep anyone from looking at him so he could get a real fight that day lol
Goku thinking ahead again like he did back in Cell by allowing Vegeta to use the Chamber first
Right 🤣 he was excited

YOU PEOPLE ARE WELCOME!!!
Thanks dude
You didn’t do the first one with chichi
1:10 is where the chi-chi skit happens!
Needs to be higher or stickied by @totallynotMark
THANK YOU
The thing about Vegeta allowing himself to relapse and go Majin and why it feels weird and out of character... _it is._ Because he's _forcing_ it. He's forcing himself to go over the top Evil to try to reclaim his old ways, it isn't a natural growth of his character; he's trying to _deny_ his growth. And that's why it doesn't stick and he ultimately comes to his senses and goes to confront Boo.
This is a really good point.
As a 41 year old man: yeah, that’s definitely a mid-life existential crisis. Oh, yes.
As a kid watching it, I didn't really understand it that much and I was pissed the fight ended abruptly. But after getting old, I kinda understand what he wanted. It's like something you always wanted since then but never get and now that you think you have a chance to get it, a lot of things are in the way. So you force it. People get pissed and you act like a child. Then you realized, yeah I'm too old for this shit. So he makes up for his mistakes.
As much as I love and cried over your multi language tribute to Vegeta, hearing Lani finally have the chance to give the Prince his magnum opus after 15 years of parodies actually hit harder.
hearing vegeta earnestly say "god i missed you" to kakarot is so fricking funny but at the same time heartwarming because of just the pure "I hate that i love you" energy
They give off such strong enemies to lovers energy
It almost felt like Lani as the writer talking about Goku and Vegeta to me. Super good line.
@@sagethevvitchthey really don't what? 😭💀
@@ghostglitch5355 they totally do lol... TFS even has played off this. Go watch the Abridged Super clip where they're arguing like a married couple.
Lmao I love how he acknowledges that he uses Krillins name
Of all the things in this video, I really, REALLY, liked Vegeta's tone when saying Gohan was out of shape at 24:55. There was no malice, or arrogance, or pride that we're so used to hearing. The way he spoke to Gohan in a gentle, yet firm manner sounded like a genuine advice and concern for a friend.
/ Asian uncle
@@murrayisarobot... ... ... Wow, until you said it, I wasn't thinking it could be summed up so succinctly. That totally do be asian uncles tho
The only time Vegeta has saiyan uncle energy 😂
The tfs bits are great, but let’s not discredit the sheer awesomeness of Marks comprehensive review of the buu saga.
I'll be honest, hearing Lani saying that "Even you best buddy" line made me cry. I've been wanting this for years, thought that with DBZA S4's cancellation we'll never get, but it happened. Thank you Mark for making this happen
seein that comment under the last episode of the abridged cell saga that inspired that line 😢
I’m so proud of Lani. He finally got his Vegeta Sacrifice scene. And it was perfect
That whole scene was a tour de fucking force from Lani. The Krillin "Vegeta no!" especially got me. They have the bit about Vegeta going to his BBQ's pointing to their developed relationship over the time skip. That line isn't because Vegeta's being an idiot, like it normally is. Krillin just doesn't want Vegeta to die. It's incredible and the fact that Lani isn't a major player in current VA's is a fucking travesty.
@@XxArsenykxX They also had movie nights, so given how Goten and Trunks play together constantly, Gohan might have visited Vegeta for quite a while. It's safe to say Team Three Star became very good friends.
TFS fell off years ago, betrayed their fans, and now they toss us these tablescraps like we're some old battered dog? No. Proud is not the word I would use. TFS: TotalFuckingShit.
@@prospero2405 makes sense. Out of the cast, they've been through probably the most in various ways, minus Goku himself (although, he's clearly not really bothered due to his personality), much of it being together, so, it makes sense that they would have grown as a sort of group as things mellow out.
Wish he got to ask buu if he wanted to see something cool
“God I missed you”
… that cell parallel is going to get me for the rest of my life, actually
1:05:03
1:05:08 I like that Doom Eternal blood swamps randomly plays here 😂
This hints that Cells adoration of Goku's simplicity actually came from Vegeta's saiyan genes this whole time, he just never showed it until now.
We may never get the full DBZA Buu Saga, but a few clips where the TFS team go full ham is a worthy consolation prize. Lani especially does not hold back one bit! Love the Krillin and 18 prank as well. Thank you Mark for twisting the collective TFS arms hard enough to get everyone back and thank you for strapping the big pants on to do a DBZ review, it's always great to be reminded why we love this show so much.
God the "Best Buddy" at the ending broke me. TFS' Vegeta was a fantastically written character.
he was indeed
He hit me in the feels…
"BrOke mE"
Get a job
@@Ginko_SakataHe was exaggerating, kiddo. It’s called a figure of speech. Get a clue
Everyone is talking about the TFS parts (which, fair) but nobody talking about the top notch story/character analysis. I seriously learned some interesting insites into Vegeta's character. Thanks mark.
No-one is talking about it because it's not what people are here for.
@@BradTheThird
I've been watching Mark since he put together the One Piece videos. I am absolutely here for his takes, I never considered the fact that Vegeta never saw Trunks come to his aid until he saw the child version do it in the Buu Saga, AMAZING.
@@BradTheThird That's just blatantly wrong.
Just because you aren't here for the analysis doesn't mean nobody else is.
I came here for the TFS bits and ended up watching the whole thing because of how well analyzed everything was. Funny how that works.
@@shivashiham7880same
TFS didn't loose their edge a bit, that's some damn quality writing.
They’ve kept up their practice with the dragon shorts and the HFIL series 😁
@@babanooWell that was the intent since IIRC when Season 4 wasn't canned, they mentioned how light they were gonna make Buu compared to Cell which was a love letter to the series hence why that season was as good as it was.
The Maron bit is killing me
@@rasengan124 That HFIL series is garbage.
It also probably helps that they have been rewatching their show together on their Bento channel giving their creator commentary.
One of my favorite moments in all of DBZ is seeing the Tournament announcer recognize Goten and have an instant cute little flash back to Goku vs Roshi. Its easy to forget this guy has been along for the ride right along with the readers for all the weird things that happen at these tournaments
It's jackie chun not roshi 💀
@@vsjsk4870 lol fair, obviously they're completely different people 😏😏😏
I almost started crying happy tears when Vegeta called Goku "best buddy", that's literally a perfect bit of writing there
Goku? Silly commenter, it immediately cut to Krillin, so obviously Vegeta enjoyed those movie nights way more than he wanted to admit.
I've waited for that line-read for so long and never thought we'd hear Nick actually do it. Of course I'm gonna cry happy tears that he finally got to do it.
he was referring to Krillin as his best buddy
@@Jay-st8jf nah, if he was referring to Krillin, his final yell would’ve been TEAM THREEEEE STAAAAAAAAAR!!!
TEAM 3 STAR@@ewormXD
I love Goku's giggle when saying: "Oh no!" As Vegita turn Majin 😂
Moment later
“He is truly lost to us…”
@Handledecvi
Goku just looking for any reason 😂
I love how he's even more unhinged seven years later since he's...well, dead, he has been dead and training constantly for almost an entire decade. So he's more disconnected than ever from reality.
I like to think that Goku knew exactly what was going to happen after hearing Shin, and he was just waiting to see how long it took
@@supsas Yeah Goku is dense, but not that dense that he wouldn't know what was gonna happen there.
This really is the closest thing to an abridged Buu Arc we’re gonna get.
Gotta thank Mark for bringing it somewhat to fruition. Love TFS and your reviews Mark! Excited to see Part 2!
I just need an edit of all the cuts put together please
@@otislamar8613Pretty much
I love abridged Sharpner in this
The Buu arc is full of some really great moments, but falls apart in the connective tissue.
Honestly, if TFS did the same thing they did in the Android and Cell arc, they could probably turn Buu into something really amazing.
...Unfortunately it could never become the Gohan-led saga that it really should have been, but I think having Goku fight an opponent who's more of a force of nature than an antagonist could be really interesting, and give him time to actually reflect and grow as a character. Not to mention finishing up Vegeta's arc, and doing all sorts of wacky shit with Mr. Satan, which are both already things the Buu saga does fairly well.
Yeah... I'm smiling to see some glimpses into what could've been, for sure. But deep down it still stings knowing season 4 is definitely never happening ever.
That “oh no” by Goku was sinister as hell
I'm so glad Lani got what he wanted to finish the "I know you're playing me" running gag.
I know he wanted that midlife crisis “PTA meeting” but too. It was glorious!
Smug lovable bastard said he WOULD have did that scene that way in one of the newest DBZA commentary vids, KNOWING he already recorded it 😆
I remember when they said they'd do it on the commentary for either episode 50 or 51 and I KNEW it was coming
Nothing was stopping them from doing this 5 years ago, so I have no good will to offer any of them. They chose to abandoned the fans. I see no reason to give them anything but scorn.
@@thetruth45678 :(
Vegeta's sacrifice in all the different languages was awesome. Shows how loved that moment is by people all over the world.
And the song hypes it up even more
It really shows the power DB has around the globe, getting people together no matter the nation nor the language😂
1:29:16 I can finally die in peace, having seen the TFS rendition of this scene.
I'm laughing my ass off but deep down i wanna cry 🥺
Mannnnnnnnnn this right here
Dude, Same!
I LITTERALLY AM CRYING TEARS OF JOY GODDAMN
VEGETE YEEEEESSS! 😢
Bro the final explosion would have bee men even better if after he Yelled VEGETA YESSS then hey ended it with TEAM 3 STAR
16:20 Both Videl and Gohan grew up in their fathers' shadows, yet they had entirely different experiences. Where Videl struggled to be noticed at all, Gohan repeatedly suffered and nearly died time and time again because he was Goku's son. (Getting kidnapped by Piccolo, fighting Frieza, dealing with Cell... the list goes on.) No wonder he tries to hide -- he learned early on that his very existence is a challenge to his father's enemies.
Hearing Vegeta say "Even you, Best Buddy" gave me chills
Oh god. I imagined that.
Sobbing rn
14:41 God it's so great to hear Amber as 18 again. That casting will never not be perfect.
The fact they show that Krillin and 18 have a healthy married life where they communicate too is fantastic
I mean, she was practically made for him. (Cell call back)
Nice double negative
Buu and Shin's tfs VAs are really good too lol
54:21 I absolutely adore the way Masakox delivers that line with sheer excitement. Goku knows EXACTLY what this means and he *wants* it.
Goku: GIMMIEGIMMIEGIMMIEGIMMIEGIMME
I get the feeling that he's laughing because he knows he really, _really_ should've seen this coming.
IMGONNAFIGHTVEGETAIMGONNAFIGHTVEGETAANDIMGONAPUNCHTHEEVILOUTTAHIIIIIM!
What’s even better is that they edited his lip flap in the background so he’s SMILING
I think he's laughing cause he realized they should have seen it coming way way way before lmao
1:11:54 to be fair to the supreme Kai. Until about 10 years ago frieza and his forces were the strongest beings in the universe. Since Supreme Kai is millions of years old, this is like being out for a day and then all of a sudden like half a dozen guys eons stronger than frieza show up, and another half dozen that are arguably around that level. He has every right to be taken off guard by earths power, especially considering that 12ish years ago the strongest thing on earth was like 1/3 of a saibaman.
That “oh, Buu has played this game” was soo damn chilling!
Right?! That delivery was absolutely perfect. The shift from playful to just dripping with malice from that voice? So good
"This is farewell, Bulma, Trunks... And even you, Best Buddy." God that hit me way too hard.
Honestly like one of the best DBZA lines for me personally, because its the complete and utter tone shift that fits Buu so well
I'm already imagining how good Super Buu will be.
I forgot he think he kill gohan and the kais
“Even you, best buddy” that line had no business hitting me as hard as it did.
Thank you TeamFourStar and thank you Mark.
I’ll just wipe the tears out of my eyes now…
Other than screwing Krillin, the TFS team has done the best in dubbing the story for a Western audience.
Man. That "best buddy" hit me like a ton of bricks.
I think its really hitting that next review will be the real end of DBZA.
I was teary 😥😭
I also cried when he said it 😭
Same here. That hits way too hard
I am literally crying right now, that was amazing
Ayo I fucking ugly cry
I'm surprised TeamFourStar didn't make a BuuBit for that scene where Sharpner asked Gohan why he didn't dodge. It's literally their longest running gag.
They tango with it a little with the Videl attack scene
Maybe I'm the one thinking too much about this, but maybe it had something to do with Gohan consciously allowing himself to get hit rather than running the risk of leveling a 10 story building with a pop fly.
Or Gohan being hit in the head, and then in the distance: DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODGE
@@KigaiOkasuthey could've play around it by making Gohan thinking deep inside how to play that to not look more suspicious , without even noticing Sharpner already threw the ball.
Vegeta’s “God I missed you” at 1:05:00 feels so genuine I love it
This is how i feel about tfs
Very relatable.
Forgot it was even referring to the in universe time passing
Vegeta's speech at that moment made me realize that he almost never calls anyone from Earth by the name in DBZ Abridged.
It's always Bald One, Namekian, Boy, Woman, Triclops, Black Man, etc. Tho he does say Kakarot and Goku is fine with that.
I feel a little bit like that was for us, too.
TFS has missed doing DBZA, and Lani's missed being Geets.
And we've missed them.
“You’re right, it is a lot funnier if I act like I don’t know” okay that one got a good chuckle out of me 😂
Can someone explain that joke?
@@arthurfilion5992 Krillin's ex-girlfriend was also named Maron (which makes it look strange that his and 18's daughter has a similar name). But they named the kid after 18's grandmother and together make jokes pretending 18 doesn't know about Krillin's ex.
@arthurfilion5992 his daughters name is the same as his ex (in the filler Garlic Jr arc).
Tho I think the spelling is slightly different
@@Lord_Of_Night Ok that makes more sense now thanks for the context
@@juicyeboi9006It’s Maron vs Marron in English, but then again Frieza/Freeza
That "Vegeta yes!" hit hard. It was funny but you could really feel the emotion put into it. I miss Team Four Star
Also the dialogue during the majin vegeta part of this arc is just beautiful! Vegeta's "debts must be paid" speech especially is so profound!
27:56 Trunks thinking intensively about the fight and analysis and goten signing baby shark in his head is the best thing I think I have ever witnessed
Goten is no thoughts, head empty 24/7
Instantly distilled their characters down to a single scene, loved it
@@clementgoh9270Just like his Dad.
It reminds me of the Nappa "paddy cake" bit
That was adorable. And Kid Trunks is exactly what I'd hoped for.
Literally a 26-year-old man and I’m crying at the end of that. TeamFourStar knew we wanted to hear him call Goku best buddy at least one time. What a fitting ending. Thank you Mark. Thank you for bringing back a small piece of a franchise. We love so dearly. This is without question. The absolute best work you have ever done.
Same dude
29, and definitively lost a few tears too. What an amazing documentary. This ending was pure emotion and phenominal. It felt like even TFS didn't want to "shitpost" on this, but rather give it their heart and soul at it's purest. It was amazing.
36 and cried hard
29. Like a bitch.
25 year old here and I'm sheddin tears man 😢
So cool that vegeta saying “I’m using his name” calls back so effortlessly to him always saying “Baldy”, “Bald One”, or some other name for krillin. Sure, DBZA didn’t come back for Buu in its entirety, but I feel like this gave the fans, and possibly even TFS, a way to experience Buu in a way that felt good for them.
Thanks Mark ❤
in a way this is kind of...closure huh?
1:29:17
I feel like he also should have called Piccolo and Goten by name here
I mean, Goten wouldn't hear it, but Piccolo would
And then after he's done baring his soul to Piccolo for a bit he'd say "Alright, get out of here with the crotch spawns, Namekian."
Just think of it like this is their DBZ Kai version of events.
Well it’s that and by this point in the story, Krillin isn’t a baldy anymore
That makes me a bit sad that we won't actually have the Buu Saga abridged x).
But their reason was more than understandable. (community pressure)
On behalf of the famdom, thank you for collaborating withTeam Four Star. There were a lot of moments we wanted to see coming to life, and we certainly weren't disappointed ❤
God bless Lani's vocal chords for that final Vegeta scream.
He's talked in the Commentary videos about occasionally hurting his voice doing those intense screams, but that...
That was phenomenal.
“Baby shark dooo dooo” 😂
The cancellation was so he could charge his vocal coords
Damn... that last "best buddy" was the hardest punch vegeta has ever thrown. And it hit right into the feels.
Everyone is talking about all of the TFS parts, and they are amazing, but can we appreciate how good the actual analysis is? It’s really made me think deep about the series, and brings up topics i never would have thought of, i really enjoyed the entire video!
Agreed. Anyone who hasn't seen the DBZA stuff must be very confused looking at the comment section, heh.
I have watched the anime twice before his series reviewing DBZ. I missed so much that I had to do a third watch.
THANKYOU! EXACTLY
@@glurpious73your name suits you perfectly
I know right?! Mark's analysis of Vegeta's sacrifice actually made me tear up a little!
1:28:01 René García Miranda really gave us all latin american kids the performance of a life time, hearing him always makes me tear up like the first time
It really took me of guard, I shed a tear at the realization
Yeah, I was not expecting the latin dub at all. Good on Mark for including several dubs. It was an epic moment for fans all around the world
God I love Masako's "Oh no" when Vegeta's turning Majin, hes so excited 😆
It's like Willie Wonka's "Stop, don't, come back," except Goku actively looks forward to the horrific consequences.
Damn, that TFS final explosion was just beautiful.
Idk felt like without it felt more beautiful, like it undermined with silly & humor
Not gonna lie, i fucking cried. I been wanting this for so long and TFS did NOT disappoint
@@armoredsaiyan Yeah I will say that. I don't really like it. Buu's response was pretty good, and I like the idea of him acting a bit like Zeno in terms of personality. But I don't really like the whole "I am going to huge you now for the first time ever. Hug complete", and the rest of it. HOWEVER, that line "Even for you, best buddy", that one they did hit the nail right on the head.
Keep the original, but change it to THAT line, and it's perfect.
@@naisagathefirstdestronmand8559 That "Even you , Best buddy" Hit me hard, I know DBZA is supposed to be silly but these are characterizations that we've known for over 15 years and that hit that perfect tone man
@@dawakat08I get what you're saying (or at least I think i do?) but to me a lot of these buu saga clips didn't really hit the right spots. And especially for that moment, it felt VERY OFF. I distinctly recall that TFS did want comedy, but did explicitly say they wanted to keep the serious moments serious. And the "Even you best buddy" is the perfect blend there. It's a funny line out of context, but it makes sense for the character and does actually serve to be quite emotionally powerful for us who have context, as we all can clearly see (and feel).
But the rest of the stuff before it felt very out of tone with the scene. To me, it like a lot of the other buu saga clips felt more like early placeholder stuff. Old ideas they had that had not yet been refined.
With all that being said, it is very cool that we did get these. And having long made peace with the fact we never will get season 4, I have always been curious as to what their plans where for it, because surely there was ideas. And these little glimpses are more than enough to get their ideas. And I am thankful to see them.
wow team four star never ceases to amaze me with their tremendous writing "IM USING HIS FUCKING NAME" had me weak
*thinking* Holy shit that IS the first time he ever said Krillin's name in all of DBZA...
I wonder if 18 threatened him about using Krillin's name, or if Krillin just eventually said "can we be real here? Your kid is swimming in my pool and your wife is my childhood friend, maybe use my name."
Or maybe Trunk's started calling Krillin ' the bald one' and Vegeta realized he caused that. So much potential with that single line.
@@benjamingardner3314that last one could be right but indirectly. Trunk's got in trouble for it (both because Bulma didn't like it because he is her friend but also because future trunks and him got along well) bulma grounded young trunks then had the parenting talk about being a responsible father.
Also.... Trunks isn't bald any more
To see even a brief glimpse of what TFS could have accomplished with the Buu saga gave me chills. I wish they'd come back.
Me too my friend... Me too
Yeah I would like that as well, but burnout and toei abusing the copyright system is a bitch
Watch HIFL, they never left
@@22NightWing he meant DBZA not HFIL or Dragon shorts
duh, but what is HIFL but a continuation from a different perspective?
The “even you, best buddy” has been floating around the fandom for so long that hearing it and then the final vegeta YES made me cry

You're not the only one.
Only a bit?
Me too, man. Me too.

"Trunks... You couldn't fathom the amount of dead men behind me!" is some of the most gangsta shit I have ever heard and it's from a fucking abridged anime series.

Exactly man! Let's go! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
What up Jax 👋
It is really nice to hear them again. Close enough for a series
Yes man I'm with you. I was one of the kids sitting in front of my TV watching trying to learn how to channel ki from gohan's instructions
1:29:17 they could not have done this scene any fucking better. Absolute masterpiece of a take. And yes, there are tears.
Now that we’ve all gushed at the TFS portion, let’s take a minute to relish in the stellar and fantastic review journey Mark takes us on. Taking us to storytelling depths we didn’t think possible for this show.
You deserve so much more for this Mark. Thank you for what you and your team do
1:30:35 Words cannot describe this moment. This phrase. How long I’ve waited to hear it. Ever since the DBZA Cell Saga ended I imagined this moment. And how cool it would be. And now, thanks to Mark, it’s here. The moment we’ve all waited for. Vegeta’s final act. Lani’s final grand performance. And god was it worth the wait. I have repeated it countless times. Still can’t believe it’s real. This whole video, from the review to the TFS bits, is perfect. I love Dragon Ball, I love Team Four Star, I love Mark, and I fucking love the beauty that is Dragon Ball Abridged.
Anyways I’m gonna go cry now
Glad to see those like us are not alone. It legitimately feels like a dream come true - That kind of magical feeling doesn't come around often.
Was waiting for this part to be abridged, and Goku's SSJ3 moment
@@CalvinCollectable i wonder, will it just be super quick or will masakox make the full freaking scream for the others to comment about it
the Videl v Spopovich fight is one of the moments that sticks with me the most from my original watch of DBZ as a kid. the other two being first form cell drinking people, and then Buu killing everyone and then following them to the afterlife to kill them again.
I remember being SO excited for the tournament, and goku vs vegeta, and was having a great time, and then the popovich fight started. you did a remarkable job describing why that fight was so psychologically intense. Videl suddenly loses all agency and everyone just has to watch
At 54:17 Masako delivers what might just be his single greatest performance of a line in all of DBZA.
Absolutely perfect delivery
He sounded so happy😅😅
Shin: "Wait, no! Don't tell me Vegeta has darkness in his heart!?"

Also right before it with even you best buddy!! So damn good.. vegeta was my favorite character in the regular series but I love him even more in dbza
Bro, I got goosebumps too lol
Goddamnit, I would love to see TFS, out of nowhere, drop a first episode of the Buu saga. I've been watching their commentary being released on FourStarBento and this is an absolute delight to watch with their humor thrown into the edits.
@@bodacious117 If you watch Bento, they say ahead of time that they scripted many gags to hit during the buu saga and never got to produce them. Half of the jokes here are word for word what they revealed in Bento.
These guest appearances *are* buu abridged. More or less exactly how they discussed them in skype over a decade ago.
@@PattPlays Their DBZ Kakarot Gameplay also had them discussing a bit about the jokes they had planned.
As someone who saw this show in Spanish, English, and Japanese, those clips are so impactful put together.
Mr René Garcia for the spanish version...
I also think that the spanish line from the narrator at the dead of Vegeta is way better "... Su nombre era Vegeta, el principe de los Saiyajin... era sumamente orgulloso..."
Yup, these are a special taste of special. Portuguese, Japanese, english and of course, TFS, heard them all accross the years. It sends shivers down my spine. Who ever came up with that, is a genious.
There was also a part in french, surprisingly. France was the first western country in which DB and then DBZ became very popular (mangas in general), so it's a cool tribute.
Where did you get the eng sub clips used in this video
It broke me. The multi language splicing is such a fantastic touch Mark does with some of these, and its INCREDIBLE
1:27:35 I now finally realize why so many people love Vegeta
Seeing TFS cover Vegeta's Final Explosion was both on brand and perfect
I always knew that if they did that scene, it would end with Vegeta calling Goku best buddy in his mind lmao
The Goten baby shark bit is one of the few times I’ve had to pause something to laugh from how ridiculous and funny it was. 😂😂
It is something I can hear him say
Lmao
Where does he get those clips? Or does he create them?
@@lizduran6133team four star did the dubs for this video
I feel like TFS Goten is just the word “Yay” in an unending excited scream, and I love it.
Yeah, I laughed so hard at that xD
HOLY F*CK. THAT LAST SCENE. PERFECTION LANI!!!!! Thank you, team four star and totally not mark. This was amazing on all fronts.
they're seriously killin it! can't wait for part 2
I never knew I needed something so much until now even you best buddy
I was not ready for those feels
"best buddy" killed me.
It's like watching it the first time all over again holy fucking shit the hype
I'm not surprised TFS was willing to contribute to this. You've definitely put in the work to produce great content these past years.
Great stuff, as always!
Man, that final scene, it’s a masterpiece, the comedy, music, the kakatot joke and that whole interaction. *Chefs kiss*
what was the song anyway?
the kakatot had me ugly laughing hard haha
Piccolo's "heh, no??" Had me dying LOL
21:03 Yes they cover this. Also I like to think this was her way of acknowledging that he is indeed interested in her. He could have dodged…but who would want to?
20:42 That whole scene, and especially her "no reason" was weirdly adorable.
Romance, of all things, is something TFS does wonderfully in comparison to the original series.
Their handling of Krillin & 18 finally made me understand the relationship in a way the original never did.
Everything about this video is sublimely superb. Absolutely incredible job on this one. TotallyNotMark X TeamFourStar is truly a goated combination.
As usual, Mark's dedication to the content and fandom led to him bringing back the legendary TFS👏
I can't even articulate how much joy went through my entire body having TFS back. MAN have I missed DBZA even more than I realized. I totally understood and respected their reasons for not doing the Buu Saga so I totally accepted that we were never gonna get it. I thank Gomikai himself that we get a part of it here. Lani finally doing Vegeta's sacrifice sent chills down my spine and nearly tears in my eyes. Thank you to Mark, Kaiser, Lani, everyone for giving us this! I'm kinda sad that this DBZ retrospective is ending I've enjoyed it so much, but I look forward to the next one.
I love the “Superman and Batman” dynamic between Gohan and Videl at 18:10. Team FourStar are truly masters of their craft.
Honestly, it's such a genius idea that I'm shocked Toriyama never got the same idea (even Toei missed the chance for this with Great Saiyaman 2 in Wrath of the Dragon).
Absolutely.
Why would Toei copy a DC property when they could copy Kamen Rider, a property which they themselves make?
@@noonethatspecial I never said they were copying DC. I was only comparing the dynamic to one that exists in DC... and also I said Team FourStar, not Toei?
@@noonethatspecialtoei did not make either kamen rider or dragon ball.
Kamen rider - Shotaro Ishinomori
Dragon ball - (I probably don’t have to tell you) akira toriyama
Damn man, why you gotta give me goosebumps for the entire Vegeta's Sacrifice section. That was beautiful, and the scene that firmly solidified Vegeta as my favourite character all those years ago.
53:08 Watching the TFS Commentary series and Lani talking about how the “I know your playing me” joke would have payed off if they went through with the Buu arc only for it to have that exact payoff here and now means we are living in the best timeline!! Bravo to Mark and TFS!!!
35:21 its a subtle gag, but I love seeing it back from Kai abridged 2, that awkward Chris Sabat Piccolo "ALL OF THEM?" line is so perfect to me, hilarious stuff.
1:30:40 Finally the moment i was waiting for years. It feels so good to finally hear those lines. Just love it.
"And even you, Best Buddy", Left me speechless in the moment! Completely amazing, I felt that deeply. TeamFourStar needs to come back and do season 4, even if its reduced down to several episodes!
"I didn't even get to whip out my new for-"
"Victory for Vegeta"
dude I wish we could've gotten a full dbza buu saga these small clips are so good.
I love that TFS kept Buu faithful to his original personality with a slight spin to it.
Buu: "Existence... existence is but shallow question without answer...BUU MAKE YOU CHICKEN NUGGETS!!"
Reminds me of that Luma from the Mario movie.
1:05:04 Vegeta’s “God I missed you” is so sincere and wholesome, specially when Goku is just "i'm just here for the fight, ya don't gotta justify it"
1:28:06 Hearing the Catalan dub actor completely took my by surprise I did not expect that whatsover, I loved it so much, thank you for giving him a spot amongst the great voice actors of the other dubs.
1:30:35 made me tear up the moment I realised the scene was coming.
such a good video Mark, it made my weekend
I love how we finally got Vegeta's acceptance of Goku as his "best buddy" and he's trying to make the most of every minute of their reunion.
"Vegeta, No!!!!" "Vegeta, yes!!!" Has forever been tied with my memories
1:00:58 "He is truly lost to us". My god I laughed so hard at that. It feels so unreal that dbza is back in any fasion.
1:30:35
This scene has literally made me teard up this made my Saturday far more better thank you Mark, and team four star for giving us a gift of history.
Not done yet: today something happened to me which has been... unerving ever since I saw this video it made me feel better that DBZA made (sort of) a comeback when i saw TFS Vegeta sacrifice it made me sadly happy, thank you best buddies.
Such great voice Acting of Nick "Lanipator" as Vegeta! 👍🏼
Way back before they said they wouldn’t be doing the buu saga I remember in a video how excited Lani said he was for Vegeta’s big scene. So it was really sad he never got his moment. To see him finally get it here is heartwarming
NGL, That 'Vegeta YES' maybe Lani's best scream he's ever done!
He even called Goku, "Best Buddy." That got me the most from their version of the scene
1:28:02 I was already emotional at this moment but YOU HAD TO PUT THE LATIN SPANISH DUB TO MAKE IT EVEN SADDER FOR ME
I did not expect this, thank you Mark
That final bit was... Perfect. Just perfect.
