It helps that he showed he remembers the awesome battles of goku and the people he fought including piccolo and that he knows who really beat cell

[@Tradetek1]

TurnupGrain43 well technically he doesn't know who actually beat cell, he never knew about gohan

[@donovangunther4538]

Stephen Nguyen well he saw Chi Chi propose so it wouldn’t be too much of a leap for him to at least assume Goku had a child. On top of that he probably saw the beginning of the cell games on TV and at least guessed that the group fighting cell was Goku and such.

[@zeaferjones1404]

Piccolo has mad respect for that guy because he kept announcing while Goku and Piccolo were trying to kill each other.

[@supersonicheroes]

The announcer, the one regular human that can see the Z-fighters for the heroes they really are. He should be considered a member of the Z-fighters himself by this point.

[@oguzhaaaaaaan]

SuperSonicHeroes He isn't a fighter tho

[@supersonicheroes]

ThatBoy:D waddup Maybe not, but he does provide fight commentary and has seen plenty of action watching the Z-fighters fight. That's good enough for me.

[@mistresskixen6142]

Human Creativity In the later saga Mr Satan was more of a hero than he was in the prior. For the following reasons 1) Before he changed into Super boo he had convinced him to stop killing, and live a life of peace. Even Piccolo gave him respect for this. 2) Without Mr. Satan Goku and the others would have lost against Kid boo due to Vegeta's arrogance in saying the earthlings should protest themselves instead of just warping Gotenks and Gohan (Both of which surpassed Kid boo's power by a great margin due to being able to hold/destroy Super boo who was far stronger than Kid boo) But on the other point you mentioned yeah I can agree with you especially seeing as the media did do something like that when showing the cell games remake of how he defeated cell.

haha

[@ender11king]

Is post is so old....and if I wanted to fix the multiple mess ups in the post it would come out different.....

[@itsamemario1772]

Ender11king what I laughed at the joke I didn't even realise you messed up

[@ender11king]

I know but I find it funny to some how end up back at a old post and see the wording I did for it....

[@itsamemario1772]

Ender11king Also: I like how the announcer acts like he's Goku's agent because at the end of their conversation he says "baby" like "Joey baby" and I could go on and on

Looks like he got his super show. Literally.

Hello 2022....We are still here Goku baby😁😁.....This guy should have been there during the tournament of Powers....

[@tommypower1]

i love how trunks and goten have the same personalities as ther fathers when the announcer put his hands on there heads is a perfect example

[@paintedpig3021]

did anyone notice the flying guy at 0:15

[@itsamemario1772]

haha

[@darthdistortion1934]

Falcon Kick!

[@karczekpl7462]

that Was Liu kang and his flying kick

[@Banchoking]

Liu has a bicycle kick, that was Johnny Cage.

[@yoshidaaimi34]

HE WAS HACKING!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! XD

[@LygarZeroX]

They should have brought him out for Dragon Ball Super. God, if you exist, please answer my prayers. If you have any mercy left, please make the announcer of the 12 Universes Tournament.

[@GenericSideCharacter]

Lygar X thank you for setting me up for the inevitable soul crushing disappointment, because goddamn I want that so badly now

[@monkey9208]

Lygar X. lol and i want him to talk

[@Shtoops]

The Japanese voice actor who played him died. As did the person they brought in to finish playing him in Kai. So it's unlikely he'll be brought back.

[@RainbowPowerRangerX]

It'd be so easy, too. Zeno: Who should commentate? Goku: I know just the guy!

[@LupinticDream]

*+Shtoops _* That's actually really sad.

[@LeviAckerman-pb1mw]

Only one to ever possess immortality is the announcer guy.

If you are talking about never aging that trophy goes to Bulma's mother since throught the entire series (before Super came) she never aged unlike the Announcer who actually did.

[@Seedonator]

@@mistresskixen6142 but she uses the dragon balls to unage so its cheating

[@mistresskixen6142]

Bulma mom never used them anywhere in the dragonball z saga or even dragonball.

[@jackcalvert3369]

@@mistresskixen6142 shes an android as well I think

[@redozmasoma]

01:05 Vegeta staring at 18 thinking "Bitch I still haven't gotten my payback after you defeated me back then"

[@FREE_WILL_DEFENDER]

Yea vegeta would annihilate her now

[@GeneralCane]

I completely forgot about this scene. The way he announces for Hercule you'd think the wool was over his eyes, too. I guess he just knows how to pander to the crowd.

[@chuchulainn9275]

Of course. He's a staunch professional.

[@moonie1825]

he'd probably get fired if he didn't suck hercule off.

[@marcamp001]

At least there's 1 normal human who knows better, and is not one of the millions of mindless Hercule-loving morons that inhabit the planet, who even remembers the main characters and what they are capable off. The announcer plays awesome in this scene. :)

[@mistresskixen6142]

+marcamp001 The people Goku met in Dragonball that gave their energy for him when he asked for it know too. However it is just that the announcer gets far more screen time then they did.

[@SDseb]

You got that right dude

[@lukebryde594]

This was one of my favorite moments in the series.

[@Mrgokujr2012]

All the explosions, bone breaking, and blood are fun to watch, but it's the little moments like this that really get my heart pumping.

[@lukebryde594]

It's like the announcer almost wants them to destroy the arena.

[@YogosTY]

I feel bad for the ring announcer his tournament got ruined after he was really stocked for some intense matches :/

[@razkable]

hey he got goten vs trunks krillin kicking the shit outta that fat guy videl vs spovovich 18 vs trunks and goten

[@ganoninthepit]

Yeah :/ I really would've preferred tosee a full tourney myself.

[@darkestbeforedawn09]

Yogos Yeah. They should've let the tournament play itself out, really. Would've been the best!

[@mrm64]

+Yogos For real! Tbh a tournament fight between Goku and Vegeta would be epic!

[@abdulhamekhanraj3252]

Ya but im still glad we got majin vegeta vs goku

[@jasonmnosaj]

I really like that they did this. Krillin was so happy at least one person knows how great they are 😎

[@abeliniguez9705]

This man is by far the only one who’s not a main character that has common sense and for that I wish we can see more of him

[@dronedobalina6987]

the annoucer is my favorite human in dragon ball/z

[@nightruler666]

The announcer knows whats up

[@hhexxen21]

he just said a super show, he knew dragon ball super will be coming :D

[@LucasCostello-p8j]

The announcer may be my favorite character that has nothing to do with anything he’s just cool

[@JoshGilkinson]

Such a great call back scene and so nice to see Goku and company get the recognition they deserve

[@Corey1695]

Vegeta: yeah I can't make any promises on the future of your ring's condition.

[@supersaiyanalex2570]

Corey1695 he went a step further by blowing up the stadium

[@derianvandalsen]

@@supersaiyanalex2570 just one side of it... that's still progress

[@_fendiman97]

Only character in the entire series to see through Hercule's bullshit besides the main cast

[@mistresskixen6142]

Also try everyone in dragonball who knew goku as well. remember when he asked the people of earth to give him their energy to stop Boo? Well all those people knew what was what and gave their energy as well which saying "It is goku and he is fighting boo.'

[@jimmyletv]

i love this announcer much more than the recent kai release. The "Goku baby!" is just great!

[@ArmandtheWise]

Announcer - "I am expecting a super show." Years later Dragonball Super becomes a thing.

[@roam4565]

"Good, at least one person knows how great my dad is!" Proud son!

[@DaytonaRoadster]

Announcer is the smartest fuckin on the show..

[@SDseb]

I know right XD

[@j0doe1]

"So you guys think you can fight without blowing up the ring this time?" No promises...

[@anthonycanizares5808]

I love his goku and crillin's reaction when he said they beat cell.

[@mistresskixen6142]

+Anthony Canizares That is Krillin will a K not a C but yeah.

[@anthonycanizares5808]

Mistress Kixen woops, didn't notice that. Thanks

[@dantesprophet9612]

I love how no one remembers King Piccolo over throwing the world government and throwing earth into anarchy and they all should know Piccolo is King Piccolo revived.

[@brandonromero6602]

Love how he told them You think you can fight without blowing up the ring, the screen immediate points to goku and piccolo bringing back the memories the the last tournament when goku and piccolo went at it

[@IMMACYCLOPS]

0:55 Gohan: Actually, it was m--Listen, I can't tell you how glad I am you're here!

[@itsamemario1772]

haha

[@MiPiKeTe392]

Am I right Goku baby? this dude is great and the way they got all happy to see him also is cool....theyve got history

[@AZ32415]

now imagine how cool it would be if he announces the universe 6 vs universe 7 tournament in super :D

[@airraverstaz]

+Italoboyy I'd rather it be the mushroom announcer from when Goku fought Pikkon. Speaking of which.....damn shame that isn't cannon, it would've been great to have Pikkon or Olibu joining....assuming they can use warriors from Otherworld.

[@mistresskixen6142]

+Italoboyy He would quit his job announcing on earth and do the universe announcing instead seeing as he would fall in love with all the great fights he would be seeing. I mean you heard him say that without the Goku and and his group the other tournaments were Capital B boring.

[@mr.coffeeguy2853]

He would need to extensively train his eyes just to even comprehend the fight

[@knightgabrielguanzon7613]

He wasn't even afraid of piccolo knowing he was a killer

[@merimkastrat5846]

Ring Announcer is that one side character where he doesnt even have much screen time even in DB, and yet he has complete faith on Goku. Even though he was confused on Goku’s situation, he believed him. It’d be nice to see him again at some point in DBS.

[@tranatkikomi6873]

He does have good reason to, after all. He’s an OG, seen things Goku is capable of since he was a kid, and has no doubt that things get exciting when the guy he saw turn into a giant monkey as a little boy is around.

[@galaxyjfoster4554]

that one normal human who was aware of goku and his people since the beginning

[@razkable]

I love piccolo and goku reaction together at his line about not blowing the ring up this time I love the small moments with these two former rivals like the car scene its always funny to see especially since he trained gokus son to be so strong they came full circle

[@ronin7561]

1:56 well dude, you're gonna have to wait 22 more years for that

[@jonathantorres4085]

I’m kind of shocked he wasn’t in any shape, terrified of piccolo after what happened last time

[@Gojiro7]

the Announcer is only person in the entire series who has actually learned anything over the course of the series, not sure why this one guy is the only one who remembers who Goku is or how great he is, several of his earth saving moments were televised

[@arbknight12]

“So you think you guys can get through the fights without blowing up the ring?” *Looks directly at Piccolo*

[@Beldandy100]

Always loved the Announcer. He wants nothing more than a good entertaining tournament and knows dull well the Z Team will give it

[@thedeadliest4380]

Always wanted more of this guy, was happy to see him in Z after dragonball but I think they shoulda given him more screen time! (and maybe a name...)

[@JonezeeTG]

1:54 ultimate representation of Vegeta's and Goku's seeds. Trunks is like "wtf are you doing" and Goten is like "Yes pet me hihi" 🤣

[@bakersonwolf]

the announcer is the representative of all us Dragonball fans

[@federicofrau5069]

Ahhh that's why i love him: doesn't fight, but care for the protagonist, also provide fight commentary and has seen plenty of action........HE'S SPEEDWAGON!

[@acdesigns4171]

0:48 Finally someone who believes Mr.Satan didn't defeat Cell........

[@MegaAnimazing]

I like how when he sees Goku, he's like "My life, I mean job, has purpose again!"

[@weirdface1846]

the tournament annoucer is an awesome guy. not only he knows goku and his friends so well but he's been doing this job for so long
