      @@tehrickles1447 It’s both. There was a rising popularity with D&D tabletop games in Japan at the time (80s). Some of the Japanese translated D&D tabletop games just phonetically translated the word “cleric” into japanese. Since many japanese didn’t realize that the word cleric was just a regular word, people making certain video games assumed it was a name created for the D&D game and was hesitant to use it in their own games (even in the original Japanese).

    22:04 this fight in the anime took 30 episodes with each episode being animated by a different studio to keep pace, this resulted in some parts of the fight being better animated than others because of the difference in talent working on each episode.

      @@ChicagoReacts Watching abridged makes seeing the original both more hilarious, and sadly more disappointing in ways. Remembering that the hype for the show was unprecedented at it's time helps make the drawn-out and filler-prone stretches of the show easier to understand. It has it's brilliant moments, and abridged does a great job of both respecting the actual content, while also having a ton of fun with it. I think many people find the abridged to be superior due to it's ability to use so much of the source material and the time it's development afforded them to not repeat mistakes of the original authors.

    Evolutionary wise the saiyans bloodlust makes sense. Since they get stronger when they almost die. If you don't kill your opponent, they come back for you stronger in a couple weeks. If you don't fight, you have no way of becoming powerful. It legitimately makes sense biologically for them to be bloodthirsty warmongers.

    It's not "need a *rest* ", it's "Need a *rez* ", as in "resurrection" - healers in MMOs are usually able to learn how to resurrect (or "rez") a dead party member. The whole bit is *very* familiar if you have spent any time in a group in pretty much any MMO ever. :)

    A source of frustration for Freeza is that he relishes the smack talk and delivering witty eloquent snipes. But all of those witty burns go right over Goku's head, he doesn't register that he's being insulted, which vexes Freeza, making Freeza inadvertently infuriate himself every time he snaps off a cutting remark Goku's way that doesn't land.

    So, the way the power levels currently stack up, Frieza is currently at 60 Million, roughly 60 times more powerful than when he was fighting Piccolo. Goku is at 3 million. He's strong enough to affect Frieza with his attacks, but not strong enough to wound him very much. On the other hand, even Frieza holding back his power is outclassing everyone else.j

In the original version the fight between Freeza and Goku is played more seriously with a little levity here and there.

    Telekinesis is actually pretty close, if it isn't spot-on!

      Usually it's White mage for healing magic, Black mage for elemental/damage dealing magic, Red mage for a mix of both at a lesser level, Blue mage for attacks learnt from watching enemies, and Summoner to summon creatures with various effects.
