[@kenbocole1460]

So piccolo and kami finally fused. The abridged version glosses over this, but after the fusing the Namekian you see is a "new" one. Piccolo's line of "So this is who we once were" is a refrence to that. This namekian is the original one who landed on earth before being split in two. The new namakien takes a moment to itself, pondering its existence. It decides to call itself the Nameless Namekian, because his original name was forgotten to the passage of time, ever since he split into two. Piccolo and Kami are both dead now in a sense. He has the memories of both Picciol and Kami so in the show he dosent correct people when they call him Piccolo, assuming piccolo's mantle. Only Popo knows that Piccolo and Kami are dead, and the Nameless Namakien is content to let the other be ignorant to that fact so they don't feel bad. Oh yeah, this is the 2nd and last time Piccolo is technically stronger than Vegeta and Goku, the first being on Namek after he fused with nail. Piccolo could mess Vegeta up right now if he wanted.

[@ImperialGodzilla]

I mean, until the Dragon Ball Super movie that just came out

[@kenbocole1460]

@ImperialGodzilla we still don't know if he is. I simply don't believe Gohan's words as the villain theyvwere fighting couldn't even touch Krillin or the others. If that thing could hit *them* then never in a million years could it hit or react to goku or vegeta. Gohan was just guessing I think. Nothing in that movie showed the monster to be close to Goku or Vegeta, especially since at the time of the movie they are supposed to have their latest manga forms

[@klutzmtg2310]

@@kenbocole1460 We know he is for a fact because it was stated that Cell Max if he was perfected could have demolished Broly at that time who was the strongest of all of them. Remember the movie takes place RIGHT before the end of canon Z. Gohan could not have beaten Cell without the special beam cannon which is a power up that is amplified by the users strength multiple times over. Yea Piccolo was getting demolished by Cell but he wasn't getting insta-beat. Vegeta and Goku would have been slaughtered instantly if they were there even in their strongest form.

[@kenbocole1460]

@Klutz MtG bro don't spoil the movie for people who haven't seen it. Plus that villain was never stated to be as strong as you know who. And slaughtered instantly? Krillina and the others survived that fight. There is 9 chance they get slaughtered. Are youbsaying Goku and Vegeta are weaker than Krillin?

🤩

[@TheBlackdeath001]

Fun thing at 4:50. Master Roshi says Goku can't handle his grapes after Turtle tells them he is sweating purple. Goku is most likely heavily alergic to them and thus alergic to the medicine Trunks gave him since it was grape flavored and probably had some grape derivates in it. That is the real reason he doesn't like them, he is actually alergic, is not a thing a taste. But Goku being Goku probably doesn't know what alergies are. So he just explains as if it was that he just doesn't like them. He had an actual sensible reason for not drinking that medicine in the first place after the first time, he just didn't know how to explain it.

[@nillypc42]

I love how the uploads for Dragon Ball Z Abridged on the channel started off less often and now we are getting frequent reactions. This is when the series gets good.

Namek is when it got good. Vegeta (ep18) and Ginyu force is when it got great. Androids is when it got amazing. Cell is when it got.. perfect.

[@spacezombie13]

Picollo: I'm THREE guys now! Nail & Kami: 'sup.

[@mifoon8727]

Piccolo and kami was definitely a little more somber in the show as when Piccolo fused with Nail there wasn’t Nail’s voice in his head or anything like that. Nail was just gone. It was the same with Kami, he was just gone. You could also argue that Piccolo is also a different now and even in the original show after fusing Kami Piccolo drops the line “I’m neither Kami nor Piccolo now.”

[@WafleEnterprises]

It’s true that Piccolo isn’t technically Piccolo, with every fusion they become a new, unique being that just carries the memories of both people for the fusion. In this case Piccolo technically disappeared on Namek, when he fused with Nail. But I think that it’s a combination of having multiple fusions at the time of Kami- further diluting your sense of self, possibly - plus the actual prominence of how Kami was once part of the same being as Piccolo, that finally ended Piccolo’s ability to stay consistent at the forefront. Too many differing experiences and emotions and personalities. Still has all the memories of all 3 individuals though.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2]

We like that they get to stick around in this. Would be sad if they just were gone 😭

[@BluePhoenix_]

Of course in the original Popo was completely heartbroken about this. And TFS truned it into a trip and a breakdown over the fact, that all those squares did in fact make a circle. Also, funfact: in the german version the mysterious bug thing calls piccolo his brother

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2]

Oh wow, that would’ve been cool if TFS had said that in this one. Him calling Piccolo brother would’ve doubled the intrigue 😀

[@BmanTheChamp]

He calls Piccolo his brother in the English dub as well, at least in the Kai version.

@@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2 me too for sure! Though Cell is a real treat either way!

[@filipvadas7602]

Akira Toriyama took a lot of inspiration from western cinema, but his horror inspirations come to a head with the introduction of Cell. The fact that his presence is foreshadowed, both in the original and in TFS's version really adds to how terrifying he is before we even see him.

[@Nachumbox]

@@ryanakers1372 Agree to disagree :)

[@LukaBlight69]

Cell's introduction is so disturbing and I love it. With his current power I do believe "Piccolo" aka The Nameless Namekian could actually contend with The Androids, but as Kami pointed out a few episodes back, they're not the main threat, not even close. The Androids are also kind of anti-heroes anyways. The only people I believe they have killed up to this point were a band of biker thugs who tried messing with them(TFS omits this as I believe its anime filler). Otherwise they have not harmed anyone. The cops that pulled them over were left alive and unharmed, all they did was blow their car up and scare them. The guy that 18 robs is left alive as well, the van backing up was the footage being played in reverse. Cell on the other hand has wiped out an entire city's population.

[@jerome6519]

unless you count the people killed in 18's and Vegetas fight but honestly that was mostly Vegeta

[@LukaBlight69]

@@jerome6519 Casualties of circumstances, but even TFS pointed out that Vegeta did not care that he was killing people trying to attack 18.

That dialog between Kami and Piccollo was so good, way better than the original ever was. TFS gave all of them so much more character, even if its for a joke. Now you will meet the best villain in the entire show and his awesome singing voice. There are a few in the end.. i insist you. Please no cuts or editing of this. Specially what came up in Ep. 60 best highlight for the final

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2]

Thanks for the heads up Sharky. 🙂 And we didn’t understand the weight of Piccolo and Kami fusing until we saw how TfS took time and care with that scene. Well done by them 👏 🤩

[@FLStyle]

FYI, Kami and Piccolo's dad were originally the same being, Kami the good half, Piccolo Sr being the evil half. Kid Goku killed Piccolo Sr who had taken over the world, but not before spitting out an egg which had the Piccolo jr we know inside. Piccolo Jr was the final bad guy of the original Dragon Ball show. By fusing in this episode, both halves have been reunited. Sort of.

[@goldenpaladin]

[@zazagirl3373]

The story is great because of Dragon ball z ITSELF. These seasons of Dragon ball z are known by most dbz fans as some of the best writing from Akira Toriyama. No offense to teamfourstar i love them! Was totally addicted when dbz abridged was new and totally support their work, they did an amazing job crafting around the story but the stories brilliance, suspense and intensity comes straight from the source material. They do add their own opinions, like Goku being a bad father when he's literally not at all but watching this in its prime was literally like the walking dead in its prime. The hysteria was so lit , so much that my teachers would get excited about the next episodes. NO CAP! TFS does amazing but these seasons of dbz are some of the most classic, spooky, emotional, exciting, innovative episodes. True fans end up wanting to just go pop in the blu ray xoxo This was a great reaction, we all were spooked when we first saw Cell xoxo

[@Sunaki1000]

[@cubeblast]

Some trivia About the villians in this arc: Toriyama's former editor has made various calls when the manga was publised week by week. Originally the Android Saga was supposed to just revolve around Androids 19 and 20/Doctor Gero. Until he got a a call from his former editor that went sorta like this: The bad guys that you hyped up where ...an old guy and a fat guy Really? So thats how we got 17 and 18 a few weeks later...with a new call: What, this time it's just some brats? So Toriyama changed the bad guys twice because of pressure of his former editor until we landed here... at Cell. And this will not be the last time he will call in and diss Toriyama's design.

[@Frendlu]

I think that was a good decition overall. If the great danger was an mimic and an a old man, that gonna sound stupid. And after that, 2 teens, when they come from Freezer 🙄🙄🙄. Well that sound like a bad joke. Toriyama, was an idea guy, but needed someone to put order. The thing is that, when Toriyama, had truly freedom, the best that he did, was the mess of Buu.

[@pluckyfox08]

Yup, that was crazy. so much pressure for the creator. Cell's design was fine in his imperfect form but like you said...the call from the editor continues on and on.

[@jamauln1]

Glad to see that ending landed so well. The stunned expressions of confusion (and maybe disgust?) On your faces was fantastic. I'm excited for you to get introduced to our new friend. Edit: I can see your Patreon, and know you've done through episode 44. That said, that's one of the moments I'm most hyped for you reaction for, as "Video Killed the Radio Star" is one of my favorite moments of the whole series. Edit 2: After rewatching the ending of Episode 44, I realized I missed a piece of the playlist I linked you guys last video. It's been fixed now, but between episodes 44 and 45 is a short video that ties directly into episode 45 called "Celloween," it came out at Halloween and was a fun little sequence.

Been watching through the back log of your reaction videos and im honestly very pleased that you add extra content by reviewing, disect and adding perspective rather than just watching the video and thats it. I feel like you two genuinely add something to my experience of watching through this series again.

[@Caldera01]

When Bethany said that she thought the new enemy was Freeza, I will say that she was roughly 10% correct. Don't want to spoil too much, so gonna just leave it at that and not explain further. :P In the Japanese and Dragonball Z Kai versions, at this point Piccolo is still lying to the other fighters that "he was never their friend and is still plotting to take over the Earth", which is also why Kami was so unwilling to fuse back together as Kami suspected that Piccolo only wanted to gain power for this dastardly goal. The viewers of course know at this point that this is an obvious delusion and Piccolo is a friend to them, even if he isn't willing to admit it to himself yet. It should be noted that King Piccolo (The original Piccolo Kami was part of) was a racial supremacist. I quote King Piccolo: "That's the problem with the human race. No respect...for the superior species." Soooo yeah... I think you can understand why Kami was a little hesitant to fuse back together with Piccolo even if technically this is a reincarnation of King Piccolo, Piccolo Jr.

[@Crispifordthe3rd515]

This is sorta when things get more serious in the show, and honestly it's amazing.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2]

[@dbzgotmadness]

Now only greatest will happen now that Cell has arrived😂

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitive2]

[@Charvale]

In the original, Kami doesn't even give a reason why he doesn't want to fuse with Piccolo, only that he was trying to figure out what this "new threat" really was. It was at the moment he felt the deaths of all those people that he finally decided Earth no longer needed a guardian, but a warrior to fight on its behalf. TFS gave weight to his indecision, reasoning about how Kami had actually been isolated up on the lookout for hundreds of years. During the original, I barely shrugged, but when Kami said "It's just another prison" I genuinely had tears in my eyes. On the plus side, we get interactions between Nail, Kami, and Piccolo inside his head which is going to be freaking amazing just from that Rapture comment. Also, I loved both of your reactions when our "newest threat" said "... friend". I giggled because I knew you had both telepathically asked "What the F*CK was that?!"

[@newbaggett]

Flash Stonewood's voice (The reporter in Ginger Town) was voiced by PurpleEyesWTF. Sadly doesn't make abridged content anymore, but he was famous for his None Piece series and his colabs with other VAs. Those colabs being videos like Pirates And/Or Ninjas and The Pursuit of Happiness.

Great comment about transitioning from entertainers to artists. The TFS team really took the upcoming arc to another level, even outdoing the original show in some of it's execution.

Oh yes. Can’t wait for a musical episode 😀

Welcome to when Team Fourstar started to show us all they were LEGENDS.

Master Roshi, asking all the important questions.

Context time, Uncle Gramma: The difference between Frieza and Perfection™ is wisdom and point of view. Time is literally money in anime. While this will come literally decades later, the underlying message here is understanding both yourself and where you are/what you're doing. Frieza is a child. He never had to work at anything, he never had to struggle to achieve greatness, so when he met an equal that had become that equal through hard work and most importantly sacrifice, none of that explanation meant anything to him. You might as well been talking about pepperoni pizza on the moon just tastes different. Frieza thinks growth is just getting more more-er, and that's it. The DBZ team spent quite of time (therefore money) showing the audience this in detail, and it sets these two people apart by quite a bit. Perfection™ has a whoooole different outlook. You have to have innate talent, and that's step one. Then you have to have a plan to get to step two. Step two can be done by working and slaving and busting your ass and gaining wisdom and strength... but that is super inefficient and really really boring. So how do you get around that? How do you do the work and keep it fresh? Turns out you can just do both by literally taking the necessary work... when other people have already done it. THEN you can apply it immediately, you can see the results immediately, and THEN you make it better, you make it more exciting, you bust your ass for a lot less time and it comes out *PERFECT*. So all you need to do is find people who have done the work for you, and do your thing. It's the perfect plan.

Thanks for the tip on the secret to life 😀

The android arc is arguably the high point of the series (second to the freezer arc) in many areas. You don't see it all here, but the concepts introduced are quite interesting, the fusion of man and machine (which started with freeza funnily enough) and the return of an og villian was cool. Also, toriyama upped his general storytelling with the mystery and suspense of the reveal of the androids and cell. Even the art improved as it's much more detailed and complex with more cities than just wastelands. ...sadly, it doesn't last. But enjoy cell!

You know it’s really funny how much you went into the writing of DBZA. Idk if you were made aware, but there’s actually a creator documentary series over at FourStarBento by the actual creators of DBZA where they rewatch the series and give tidbits of information into its development. It’s got all of the episodes up to episode 30 including their first three movies/specials iirc. Honestly I’d recommend watching on your own time.

Finally Cell has arrived. Let the innuendo's begin.
