Ranking EVERY Wish in Dragon Ball

Panties wish in S tier, immediately knew this would be good. Also appreciate the placement of the android wish as a Krillin Enjoyer. Something you didn't mention with the revive everyone wish against Kid Buu was that it wasn't just "bring everyone back," it was "bring everyone back except the really bad people," which leads to that priceless moment of Goku pointing out that Vegeta's halo is gone. It's extra ironic since they only started tacking on "except the bad guys" after Vegeta himself was brought back to life after Namek. Just something that ties into everything you already said about Vegeta's role in that fight that I've always really loved. Also, talking about 12:26 and the convenience of Guru's revival, way back during King Piccolo, it was established he felt physical pain while Goku was beating his offspring. Really doubt it was intentional on Toriyama's part, but I like treating that as a fact of Namekian biology to explain Guru's death. If Piccolo got a minor heart attack every time one of his kids got whacked, then the complete genocide on Namek definitely would've taken its toll on Guru. This was a really great video! Glad to have found your channel, and I'd be thrilled to hear more of your takes on the series.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

I love your point about Guru! I have never thought about it that way or connected those two concepts. And honestly, while I agree that Toriyama was probably not thinking of that connection, 1) we don't know that for sure! Toriyama often pulled old concepts out of his hat and reincorporated them into the story, and 2) even if Toriyama wasn't thinking of it specifically, he has clearly evoked a similar concept, which means that's probably something he associated with Namekians as a race. And 3), with Daima, even though a lot of the new canon in there is obviously retrofitted into the series, it shows that Toriyama enjoyed building lore around Namekians, even after all this time. So I think your theory is pretty awesome! And yes, I did actually have a brief reflection on Vegeta's halo disappearing, and the idea of dragons discerning "good guys" and "bad guys," but I ended up deleting it to keep the video a bit shorter :) but yes--a great moment all around. Thank you for your thoughtful comment! I'm thrilled that you enjoyed the video, and I'm happy to report that I'm working on my Dragon Ball videos as we speak :) have a good day!

[@RaynmanPlays]

Bora being brought back to life is extremely significant to the story, since it establishes that Shenron can, in fact, bring people back to life. Major ramifications for the future of the series. And by doing this with a minor character, it manages to set up future return to life wishes without it seeming cheap.

[@chrisblanc663]

Totally agree.

[@James-v8d]

I think this is interesting perspective! Krillen may of died and got rezzed 3 times but it was Bora who was rezzed first lol

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Great point!! It’s also so nice seeing Upa and Bora’s reactions. Seeing one life restored has such a nice emotional impact 😭

[@thefilmwatcher1302]

Plus, it’s so heartwarming! Upa and Bora are just awesome; I love those two so much.

[@CR1MSONACE]

Bora's revival brought Krillin 5 revivals across all of DB/Z/Super/GT (That's definitely becoming 6 in Daima). That should be enough for A tier.

[@jacobperkins7477]

I appreciate you allow narrative weight to alter the ranking, instead of just "X wish is suboptimal".

[@CoyoteCocktail]

thanks!! i do feel like the video could have benefitted from a more stablished scale or ranking criteria, but at the end of the day I just jumped right into ranking the wishes. I'm going to rank the movies, Super, and GT as well, so I may adjust some rankings as I go.

[@jacobperkins7477]

@CoyoteCocktail looking forwards to it!

[@ds2465]

King Piccolo probably didn’t wish for immortality because 1. He probably thought he was strong enough and 2. He was already trapped for eternity in a rice cooker. Maybe he was was worried about something similar and wanted death as a emergency exit.

[@shanepage8041]

damn that’s actual a good point

[@CoyoteCocktail]

True, I didn’t consider that he had been stuck in the rice cooker for quite a while. Also, maybe the guy just wanted to be young again!

[@Flipitmixit]

Also his lifespan is pretty long already

[@toumabyakuya]

I mean, he could have wished for eternal youth. That would have made him both youthful and slightly immortal (because he wouldn't have grown old).

[@hioman]

Third: that wouldn't have returned his youth, which is what he really wanted

[@prestongarvey2599]

yamcha's "revive everyone killed by cell" wish is even WORSE when you realize he specified on EARTH, leading to king kai still being dead, bit minor but cmon, bro literally bummed on his planet and he doesn't even have the kindness to bring him back? edit: "that's from abri-" ALRIGHT I GET IT

Got to love how one of the most silly wishes is the exact first wish, where shenron looked absolutely terrifying, anything could be wished for, and panties are the end result 😭

[@CoyoteCocktail]

[@bensirotzki]

Great video! As a writer it's really cool seeing someone discuss the actual writing choices and how they affect the narrative. Too much of the db content on youtube is just discussing lore or power levels

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Thank you!! If you like this writing-focused approach to Dragon Ball, definitely keep your eyes on my channel! I’ve got some videos in the works that I think you will really like :)

[@abfs5470]

When I first saw this video in my recommend I was worried it would just be a rather blunt description of all of them but you very pleasantly surprised me! This video is honestly one of the best Dragon Ball videos I've ever seen! I could feel your love for the series throughout the entire thing. I'm excited to see what you do next :)

[@CoyoteCocktail]

wow, thank you so much for this comment! i really appreciate it, and i'm happy that my love of the series came through. i wanted to avoid this video feeling like a summary, and instead be a fun discussion around the series and its famous plot devices, attempting a ranking but looking at more than just a wish's outcome. the original idea came from a script i was working on called "are the dragon balls lazy?" which I may still go back and finish. thank you again. my next few vids are all going to be about Dragon Ball, so I hope you like those too!

[@ndiaz1982]

[@kaasloo1303]

I find it so sweet how you talked about yamcha and krillin sitting on the beach, talking about girl problems.... we focus way too much on canon this and retcon that, this is how we should think!

[@CoyoteCocktail]

I’m glad you appreciated that!! My greatest wish in dragon ball is that we could have seen more training among the various characters. So often, training just results in a time skip. Would’ve loved to see the training on Kami’s lookout, before the androids arrive, vegetas training between the cell and buu saga, etc

[@trailersforfun2669]

Right!! They also trained together for 3 years before the 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai, I’d argue they’re more best friends than Krillin and Goku

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Yes exactly!! And I love that short sparring match we get to see between Krillin and Tien in a filler episode. I could watch stuff like that for hours

[@theanimatedmind]

Loved this and I actually agree with every ranking. The Dragon Balls get a bad rap but when you truly look at the details, you see how necessary the wishes are, how they advance the plot, and how they even yes, in Yamcha's case, point out fallacies or a lack of strategy.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

[@pynk_tsuchinoko8806]

Piccolo wishing to be brought to namek was insanely risky, but I agree him acting on that emotion, that desire to stop a tyrant who massacred the people he never knew was a powerful moment even if it only lasted a a chapter or two. Sometimes a characters mistakes or loses can be more impacted than their triumphs or victories.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

I totally agree! Some of the best moments of Dragon Ball are when a character’s emotions get the better of them. This is why I love the beginning of the Demon King Piccolo Arc, when Goku is enraged and trying to avenge Krillin, even though it’s incredibly dangerous

[@KLightning18]

I have just realized with this video that king furry had gathered the dragon balls in the past

[@Speed001]

Omg

[@RadishDoctor]

I always wondered why not just "Bring all the Namekians that have been killed over the last month". The Namekian revival wish seems like bad phrasing being risky with the whole "Guru was second-hand killed by broken heart" and it also would've brought back Namekians that were killed by Vegeta

[@Flipitmixit]

21:00 he also specified "on earth" so king kai didnt come back either

[@Cross-kd5xb]

okay, so cheap retcons occuring off screen is ok because nostalgia but a well written, deeply lore-revealing, highly plot impactfull wish is bad because "Super is better than Z and I have nothing to complain so nostalgia, buu-huu" Checks in tbh, typucal noZtalfan argument

[@Purplecow27]

Really enjoyed this video, the use of narrative implementation does wonders in terms of ranking :)

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Thanks!! I think the narrative considerations may have been weighed more heavily for or against some wishes than others (which is my own bias), but I intend to do Super wishes next, and I might make some adjustments based on viewer feedback

[@normannugguire]

On an added note Krillin and 18 shows Krillin has grown in another way. He was ready to strike and kill Vegeta while he was down at the start of Z but now he has grown thanks to Goku's influence to give the bad guy a chance to change, to see the humanity in the villain, which Goku has continually done throughout all of Dragon Ball. In my eyes Dragon Ball has always been about Goku's infectious kindness almost every single character he meets starts out as an asshole but Goku is so overwhelmingly positive they can't help but grow to be better people around him, and Krillin's soft spot for the androids has always made me think of that cause even after he refuses to detonate 18 he takes 16 to Capsule Corp to be repaired despite everyone there telling him not to.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

I’ve never thought about Dragon Ball from that perspective but I LOVE that reading of the series. We see the theme over and over again of bad guys becoming good guys, and I think it’s so cool to interpret that as a result of Goku’s influence :) I love this idea!! Thanks so much for your comment

[@specialnewb9821]

Oh also removing the bombs is why 17 doesn't die trying to blow himself up during the Tournament of Power in the manga, so this wish eventually saves the multiverse.

[@hellspawn22001]

Well we know that the carpet gets 10,000 miles to the soul

[@MrTopTenList]

I am a major Buu saga defender. I think the innovative things it did well outweigh the plot conveniences or holes that I tend to just handwave away when defending it, and that includes their use of the Dragon Balls. Also, I agree that the manga just pushes some plot points aside way too much. I respect that Toriyama had to go on a weekly basis, which is why I implore friends getting into the series to check out the anime (specifically Kai once they finish original Dragon Ball) since even Kai keeps in the parts of filler that expand the story, like the Dragon Team getting revived on screen.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

I reread the Buu Saga to write this video, and I actually think I like it more than the Androids/Cell Saga! It balanced comedy and action in a way that Dragon Ball had not done for a very very long time. And after reading other viewers feedback, I misinterpreted Yamchas buu saga wish and it actually doesn’t deserve to be that low. When I upload my rankings on Super/GT, I plan to revise and adjust some wishes 🤔

[@tormentor91]

Cool list, but I do think you underrate King Piccolo's wish for youth quite a bit. He was convinced that he was the strongest being on earth at the time, so eternal youth is just a better immortality for him. And even if Shenron was superficially easily revived, Goku still needed to reach the lookout (something no one had done since Kami himself) and even then Kami needed to be convinced to reactivate the Dragon Balls. Additionally, it's worth pointing out that this is also the ONLY wish granted to a villain in the original series.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

In hindsight, I agree. In my original draft of the video, I had that wish in the A Tier, and I ended up moving it down because I wanted to avoid my list being too top-heavy, and I was worried I was being too biased because it is one of my favorite moments of the series. But yes, you bring up excellent points, and Piccolo deserves more credit for actually getting his wish granted!! I plan on expanding this list with the wishes from Super, GT, and the movies, so I’m definitely going to be making some adjustments based on feedback like yours :) thank you for your thoughtful comment!

[@xnalistor759]

The fact that Yamcha, Tien and Choutzu weren’t shown being wished back in the manga genuinely shocked me. I definitely need to read the dragon ball manga in its entirety.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Yep, just a text box 😭😭😭 I was so bummed out as a kid because I remember I missed the episode on television where the humans were wished back to life. I used to check out the manga volumes from my local library, and I was looking forward to learning who these characters were-I didn’t know much about Tien, Yamcha, and Chiatzu at the time. But I was one sad 8-year-old when i discovered you don’t even get to see it and suddenly freeza is already coming back to earth on like the next page lol

[@trailersforfun2669]

A little unfair how you blame Yamcha for not properly cleaning up after Vegeta’s mistakes TWICE

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Hahahaha yeah I’m a huge Yamcha fan and I do think I was a little hard on him… thankfully I plan on expanding this list with Super, GT, and the movies, so I will definitely update and revise some rankings as I go.

[@pietrolollo1233]

I didn't know Krillin's battle armor was repaired by porunga when he was brought back to life. I kinda miss that he stopped wearing it,he couldve used it again in the Cell Games considering that even Goku wore one at that time. It gave me that feeling that Krillin was the strongest human of the Z warriors(he probably still is but whatever)

[@MrJay-be9wh]

The other aspect to the Bora wish is that it was the first serious wish in the series. Going from a pair of panties to a resurrection wish is a big jump and it was unknown at the time what limits the dragon had. It also gave a purpose to that whole collecting the Dragon Ball part of the RRA arc. Before that it's just Goku looking for his old ball. It is what gives the entire arc a set of stakes for Goku.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

You know, this is a great way to look at it! It gave Goku’s quest even more purpose. He got to change someone’s life forever

[@CoyoteCocktail]

lmaoooo I was waiting for someone to appreciate it.

[@Godoflegos]

This sorta emphasized a thought I've been having about the Z Arcs. In both Frieza and Buu, the climatic showdowns had a lot of moving parts. The fights being dragged out served more a purpose, because they were serving to buy more time while those not currently fighting put things in motion to ultimately secure the victory. On the other hand, with the climax of Cell, if you weren't actively fighting Cell, you were probably just standing off to the side, twiddling your thumbs. Granted, they were actually given time to prepare for that one, but it didn't really amount of anything.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

This is a great point! The fight with Cell obviously has some cool moments, but overall it isn’t as exciting of a set piece as some of the other final fights. Honestly, I think I prefer the original fight against Vegeta more than the Cell Games.

I wonder if Toriyama just kind of forgot how strong he made Gohan in the Buu arc when he had Goku be the "only one who could beat Buu."

[@CoyoteCocktail]

honestly, so much dragon ball "lore" is based on what Toriyama did or did not remember! lol but personally i like that--fictional worlds come together every time an author makes a decision, no matter what that decision is informed by, and with Dragon Ball we get a lot to talk about

[@Kishiwii]

Im sure you did but i have to ask, did you consider the first half of what porunga said? This is in line with how things went like two decades later with resurrection f. Frieza is a legit monster because he was fully alive and conscious when he was brought back. Krillion on the otherhand would have come back as bits here and there and tons of blood mist. I think bringing bim back in one piece is pretty big. Great consideration from the new dragon.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Yes, you make a great point! And tbh I did consider that, and in my original ranking, that wish was a B for that exact reason. However, I ultimately decided to make it a C mostly because I feel like a lot of tier lists tend to flock to the B tier, and I wanted to be more critical for some wishes when I could, to give the list some variety. In this case, I thought there was a decent argument for C, given how many times Krillin is revived. But yeah, you make an awesome point and I’m not sure yet how I’m going to rank the Super wishes when I incorporate them into this tier list. Im working on that script right now, so we will see how it goes :) Thank you so much for this thoughtful comment!

[@Kishiwii]

@CoyoteCocktail you're right. I was looking at it from a singular perspective, you were looking at it as a whole. The dragons may have wisher preferences and do some favors for them but they're still always brought back whole. Tien would be a one armed cyclops if not. Shenron just gave frieza the bare minimum. He was an exception. Can't wait to see more from you :D

[@gankspanker4204]

On the final wish with the Namekian Dragon Balls. I personally put that wish as an A at least. From the start of Goku and Freeza's fight, Goku was stuggling to actually fully focus on just fighting Freeza. At the start he gives a glance at Piccolo to get Krillin and Gohan away from them. And up until Goku goes Super Sayian, hes struggling to be properly motivated. Then when Parunga is back online Freeza plays chicken to try to steal the last wish. The entire time there is all of these outside influences and distractions that keep Goku from fully 100% fighting. And it isnt until every single person is gone from the planet can Goku finally humiliate Freeza.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

I think this is a really great point! I wish I had considered it when I wrote the video 😅 I plan on also ranking Super’s wishes and the wishes from the movies, so I’ll definitely update rankings accordingly if I think there is good enough evidence to do so (in this case, I think there is!) One reason I was hesitant to rank some wishes too high is because I didn’t want the list to be too top-heavy in the S, A, and B range, which I think happens to many tier lists. However, your comment, and some comments from others, have made me realize that the original series may have just had amazing wishes!! Thank you for taking the time to respond :)

I mean I think the second Yamcha wish you were hard on, those people would have stayed dead if not wished back, since they were killed by Vegeta not boo. Look at the Namekien villagers they are still dead cause everyone forgot about them. These people would be dead forever just like the android victims if yamcha didn’t do this wish. (Yes I get he needed it fixed but it still worked out. I am fine with it being a D, or a C just cause it’s super boring, but it is certainly not an F like the other one. This is an IMPORTANT distinction and not a super minor complaint in a comment that no one will read ; DDDD

[@CoyoteCocktail]

This is a really great point!! I definitely got a little carried away with talking trash on my guy Yamcha. I definitely misinterpreted the circumstances a bit. Thank you for your comment! :)

[@Excalibur049]

I relly think that yamcha wishing Vegetas victims back to life isn't that bad actually. It is short sighted but I think that's the point. It shows how the period of peace and the op fighters protecting earth made the characters feel like everything was perfect. That's how the arc was kicked off after all, just everything being like old times with a fun lil tournament. And while the readers were introduced to the threat the characters didn't realize how dangerous the situation was. I mean the fighters kept overestimating themselves in this arc. So while the wish is short sighted, especially in hindsight, in my opinion that's what the arc was about. I mean everything seeming so great was what made it even more absurd that a pink blob plunged everything into chaos.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Yeah, I totally agree after reading other comments about this wish. I just straight up misinterpreted it lol Vegeta wishes back everyone killed by Buu, so this would not have revived the people killed by Vegeta, who Yamcha was wishing back to life. And yes, as you said, Yamcha and the gang had no idea what the extent of the current conflict was. And if they hadn’t made this wish, Kibito would not have come back to life, who also has his own role to play in the story. All in all, not as bad as I thought 😅 I plan to adjust the rankings when I upload my video about Super

Hahaha, love this. Which song did it for you?

[@ClownShroomProductions]

Hopefully a video for GT, Super, the movies, and Daima (when the dragon balls are used again)

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Yep!! I’m working on the Super tank right now :) I only read the manga once, as it came out, and I also haven’t seen the anime since release either, so I needed to refresh my memory. I’m also working on some pretty cool dragon ball scripts in addition to more wish ranks, but I’m keeping them under wraps for the time being!! Thank you for your comment ❤️

[@magicalnewsmaneditsbumpers4374]

22:54 I love scenes like this, as in OG DB, especially during the 22nd Tenkaichi Budokai, Yamcha was like a big brother to goku and Krillin, so this is very in character for him!

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Me too! The dynamic between Goku, Krillin, and Yamcha is so fun. A lot of people like to say that Yamcha was always a joke, but after the Fortune Teller Baba tournament, Yamcha tells Goku that he’s gonna train super hard, and Goku is very excited by the prospect!

[@andrewmcalpine2522]

Nice video, I see great things in your future

[@CoyoteCocktail]

thank you, andrew! i'm working on my next video now

[@saiyan4414]

kabito comes back with Yamcha's wish in the Buu saga which is useful.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Yes, I totally misinterpreted Yamcha's wish tbh. I plan on correcting its ranking when I upload my ranking of Dragon Ball Super wishes :) but yeah, you're totally right

[@Groofball2]

the bbl wish is the best wish

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Lmaoooo

[@KaoruMzk]

Then in Super, Sheng Long became Bulma's personal plastic surgeon. (And Vegeta's, probably. I wouldn't be surprised if Bulma "enhanced" him in some subtle ways without him realizing)

[@CoyoteCocktail]

hahahaha omg, just Bulma gradually increasing vegetas height 😭

[@Allysinwonderland1]

She might be more of a girth gal 🤷.

[@BJGvideos]

​@@CoyoteCocktailYeah. Height. Sure.

[@Cheesetendo]

21:00 also King Kai, Yamcha couldve worded it to include everyone Cell blew up on King Kai's planet

[@Rookums]

I got your Dragon Balls right here

[@CoyoteCocktail]

1 v 1 me on rust, kid

[@the_dude23]

Give them back

[@darkbeetlebot]

I find it wild that 18 literally saved her own life just by kissing a tiny bald guy. She didn't even know it would happen.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

butterfly effect except with short guys

[@BlazingAuras]

9:03 whats this song? Also nice vid! Bora/ the revival of Piccolos victims are probably my favorite wishes

[@CoyoteCocktail]

thank you for your comment! the song is "Cell's Theme" from Dragon Ball Z Ultimate Battle. a really great soundtrack

[@marcovarius]

I used to Dragon Balls to wish for more Coyote Cocktail videos!

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Marcovarius!! Good to see you, bud :)

[@toumabyakuya]

I would have liked if you also ranked the wishes made both in GT and in Super as well, I feel that both have some interesting wishes made.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

That video will be coming soon!! I didn’t want this one to run too long, so GT and Super will be incorporated into this list, and then I’m gonna make a separate list for the movies

[@stranger21077]

Oolong's wish in number 1

[@CoyoteCocktail]

agreed, oolong is the man. Well, the pig. But he’s the man, too.

[@ricey23]

never question Lord Popo

[@joanofarf]

Finally more coyote

[@CoyoteCocktail]

i see you in grelinor

[@uimaporia]

hi sensei

[@mirayoquese8608]

Great vid. I only disagree with the Piccolo Daimaoh one, that's one of the most iconic and crucial moments of the whole series. None other villain got to make a wish ever again, until Zamasu (and it seems the trend will continue with Moro, Granolah, King Gomah...). And Shenron is killed. Like wtf. That has to be A tier at least.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Honestly, I think I agree. I had the wish in A Tier in my original script, and I talked myself out of it because I thought the list was a little too top-heavy, and I thought maybe I was biased because it was one of my fav moments of the whole series. However, I think you make an excellent point and tbh I think I would change it if I could 😅

[@fakeHuss]

Good vid buddy. Keep it up

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Thank you!! Already working on the next one :)

[@cyanryan1]

6:18 is that the damn legacy of goku soundtrack lmao

[@CoyoteCocktail]

hahaha yes!! good ear

[@RocksSocks-k2m]

What is the music that’s playing when you’re talking about Vegeta’s wish in the buu saga to restore earth?

[@CoyoteCocktail]

That is “Fortitude Indomitable Spirit” from Dragon Ball Z Budokai 2 :) amazing soundtrack. I used a few tracks from it in this vid

[@christopherelizabeth503]

love this! i hope you do the movies and super

[@CoyoteCocktail]

That’s the plan! :) thanks for your comment

[@Swordsmage]

2:57 What is this song? It's so familiar and I hear it in videos from time to time but I can never pinpoint where it's from and it's driving me crazy.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

That is “Green Garden” from Bomberman 64. A really cool soundtrack! Check it out

[@Swordsmage]

Dang my guess was either Mario Party or Sonic.

[@tajalbright1147]

will there be a part 2 for DBS and DBGT wishes?

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Yes there will! I am currently drafting the script, along with a few other dragon ball videos :) this channel is about to pop with dragon ball vids

[@poodangle9026]

I wish more ranking videos had this depth of analysis. You really know how to talk about ballzzzzzzzzz

[@CoyoteCocktail]

What can I say? Im a ballman

[@eggman8091]

Great video cuh

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Thanks, egg man! More dragon ball vids on the way

[@WilloftheFans]

The Guru revival needs no eyebrow raising. There's a lengthy conversation hypothesising that it could be possible and then it turns out to be right.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

This is a good point! Honestly, that line was a holdover from an earlier script concept centered around whether or not the Dragon Balls are “lazy” plot devices, which analyzed the circumstances and outcomes of the wishes from a few different angles-a more argumentative video that ultimately became this one (and may still get finished down the line). So I wasn’t meaning to nitpick at it, but more so to acknowledge that this is a moment to note with regard to dragon ball “rules.”

[@caseyjarmes]

Min maxing the amount of wishes by repeatedly killing and reviving Shenron

[@CoyoteCocktail]

lol

[@carlwheezer1030]

I thought you were a dragon ball tuber wtf 😂 you should make more

[@CoyoteCocktail]

I’m working on more as we speak!! Thanks for your comment :)

[@mavstation]

Would you do a ranking of the non toriyama wishes

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Yes! I’m working on Super and GT next (and also the movies)

[@MrMariosonicman]

doing the wishes for the movies and gt and super would be a nice followup. how well are the wishes when they are compared to the og series?

[@CoyoteCocktail]

that's going to be my plan! i am actually sitting on my couch right now and watching Dead Zone :)

[@ben_adel3437]

I was thinking about supers wishes and if they're better or worse than z and honestly i cant decide there are cool ones like moro using the translator on that frieza soldier to wish for his youth a repeated wish but in a completely different circumstance and the one where they ask shenlong about super saiyan god is so unique they never utilize the knowladge of the dragon before and it's cool seeing that happen there are goofy ones like freeza being revived but in peices😭

[@CoyoteCocktail]

I'm currently re-reading and rewatching Super so that I can rank those wishes as well! I think it'll be fun to compare those to the original series :)

[@James-v8d]

ALGORITHM TO THE MOOOOOOOOOOON

[@CoyoteCocktail]

My guy :’)

[@Thekingofgodofwar]

12:45 Squeeze a little more WHAT from WHERE!?

[@CrimsonMysteryCake]

Ok let's hop off Yamcha a bit I mean, he poorly worded some wishes sure but it's not like he was the one responsible for those people's deaths. He's trying his best out there, I feel like we should save this energy for the people responsible I mean during the tournament Vegeta ACTUALLY killed those people but not only does Vegeta NOT get told off same way Yamcha did, but we're actually PRAISING him!? And for why because he thought to wish people back before the conflict the conflict was over??? But for some reason when Yamcha wishes people back before the conflicts over, we're treating that like that's the fumble of the century?? I just think fair is fair it's not right to jump down Yamcha's throat because he didn't bring people back from the dead good enough but we don't have any words to reprimand the guy that actually killed those people. Vegeta also wanted to fight the androids too and he threatened Yamcha when he wanted to stop the androids from being made and Vegeta killed that truck driver too. I think someone's gotta stand up for Yamcha here this is crazy.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Hahahaha I love this comment!! And trust me, I think I might be the biggest Yamcha fan of all time. The reason I was a little hard on Yamcha was because I didn’t want my personal bias to affect the rankings too much… HOWEVER, after viewer feedback, I realized I completely misinterpreted Yamcha’s wish, and he actually did nothing wrong, because if he hadn’t make that wish in the Buu Saga, then Kibito would not have come back to life, which was necessary for teleporting Gohan to where he needed to go. So worry not, fellow Yamcha defender ❤️ I’m going to adjust the ranking when I release the rank for Dragon Ball Super. My interpretation of that wish was totally wrong, and I will be correcting it accordingly.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Oh yeah, AND I realized that Vegeta doesn’t actually rectify this wish later on! So again, big fumble on my part, and this will be fixed in Part 2 :) Thank you so much for your thoughts! I really loved your comment

[@CrimsonMysteryCake]

@@CoyoteCocktail Lol I was kinda worried my comment was a little rude, so for that I apologize but I'm glad you liked it!! And yeah I just think fair is fair Yamcha was out there trying his best. Not a lot of people can watch as their girl get stolen by the space alien that helped kill him and his friends and yet still keep their chin up and have a positive attitude about it so I just think Yamcha's due a little respect once in a while.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Yeah Yamcha is a great guy. I’m always bummed that Krillin gets all the credit for being Goku’s best friend, while Yamcha and Goku have been boys since the beginning. Going into the 22nd tournament, Goku was really excited to see the results of the Yamcha’s training. Thanks again for your comment!! Hope to see you at the next dragon ball video

[@specialnewb9821]

Popo rug is faster than Nimbus. HE SHOULD HAVE FLOWN GOKU TO THE SAIYANS. Oh well. A redditor asked why they didn't use the dragonballs to revive the village Vegeta killed later since it has 11 people. Video is great. Would be interesting to get your takes on later wishes especially Cereal Dragon.

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Thank you for your comment! I am definitely going to make another video about wishes from Super and the movies :) currently working on a couple dragon ball vids

[@Sephiroth32194]

LETS GOOOOOO DRAGON BALL!!!

[@CoyoteCocktail]

let's go Sephiroth!

[@creeperman1295]

The end of Freeza Arc wishes only being a single panel in the manga is definitely a weird writing decision on Toriyama's part, though not necessarily because it was written poorly but interesting in what the focus was. In exchange for the Earthlings getting the short end of the stick, it seems to prioritize the impact of Trunks' introduction more than anything. The chapter ends on Freeza coming to Earth with his father, after all, making it seem like the threat of Freeza didn't really end at all and the arc could have continued further, only for the subversion of Trunks showing up to stomp the duo. I don't know, it depends on if you think a bad conclusion to the Freeza Arc is outweighed by a better build up to the Android/Cell Arc by concealing the arc shifting at all.

[@monoskill4059]

Will you do a similar video for Super?

[@CoyoteCocktail]

Yep! That’s what I’m working on right now :)
