I like to think of his three forms taking in characteristics of the most dominant Cells. Imperfect Cell: Resembles Piccolo, is calculating and intelligent.

[@Doctor_Odin]

I would say imperfect cell has the dominant cells of the none alien Z Fighters besides Piccolo and whatever the hell is used as a common ancestor base. semi perfect start of traits from the Frieza Clan and Saiyan cells largely because his appearance is similar to that of second and third form Frieza what is attitude is a cross between Vegeta's and frieza's. Perfect cells prominently Saiyan based with bit's Frieza Clan mentally he's a cross between Piccolo and Frieza with Goku and Frieza is arrogance. I'd wager it was a 45% Frieza Clan, 45% Saiyan, 5% namekian and 5% other

To me it applies more to the Frieza arc. First of all, incredibly great story (last standing Saiyan becoming this legendary SSJ and taking revenge on an evil emperor on behalf of his men, parents, home planet, his friends and even his greatest enemy, all destroyed by the same enemy. Secondly, the dramatic and emotional weight - Vegeta being humiliated, tortured and killed by Frieza really hits in the feels. The saddest sequence in the whole DBZ in my opinion. The Cell arc is second best.

I love how Cell and Goku are very similar; for example, they were both able to reproduce a power after experiencing it only once. (Goku with God Ki and Cell with his perfect form) Even after the power source left them, they could still tap into it. Cell is very Saiyan-like which is why I think he was a Super Saiyan... And I often like to think of perfect Cell as an evil Goku... Someone also noted that the forms of Cell mirror the fighters he faces Piccolo, Vegeta, Goku, Gohan in that order which is also true in a way.

[@JakuraithePrimalWarrior]

I personally like how Cell’s voice actor Dameon Clarke changes his voice with each transformation. Perfect Cell’s my favorite, and Semi-Perfect (2nd Form) Cell’s my... well, second, and Imperfect (1st Form) Cell is last.

[@SniperKing-O]

5:20 Semi Perfect Cell looks way cooler with the red eyes.

[@Sawngawkuh]

He was called "Power-Weighted" in Budokai 1 because his final transformation is supposed to be when he gets all buff and pissed off. For whatever reason, the model only changes in the story mode fight against him, but has no difference with regular Perfect Cell's one when used by the player. A similar issue occurs where Final Form Freeza's model is the same as his 100% powered up state when used by the player, with the leaner build being relegated to only story mode as well.

[@tristanwelke7827]

I get the feeling that the whole "Cell not fitting in the time machine" thing had something to do with the large stiff wing things and long thick tail instead of his height (not to mention the large head crest as well), i can imagine that those wings and tail make it impossible for him to sit on anything that has a back to it and the time machines seat doesn't seem to have any space behind it to "drape" his wings over, it may sound like a half-ass excuse but it also kind of makes sense, his "body extensions?" made him not quite fit so he had to compress by devolving. that's my theory anyway.

[@evelynlamoy8483]

The way I've understood cell's transformations is, he ALWAYS has the data in his DNA for his perfect form, but that like super saiyan 3 and some other transformations, it has a TREMENDOUS energy requirement, and that all he gets from absorbing the androids is their Infinite Engines, and that TWO engines that can give their host infinite stamina are required before his body can actually achieve and maintain his perfect form. The fact that he is then able to re-achieve his perfect form, but seems to get even stronger even after self destruction, is because of that Zenkai boost. He gets so much stronger from surviving that, that he finally has the energy to maintain that form himself, even without the engines. That's of course not quite how its presented in the lore, buuuuuuuuut the explanation given for these sorts of things is often a little lacking, and it requires some lateral thinking to really figure it out. This also makes me realize, if Bulma did to Goku what Giro did to the androids, he'd have essentially no limit to how long he can maintain SSJ3

@@thedarkderp2520 Yeah he jumped in front of him but he was still fully prepared to take the hit. He was on guard no matter what. The thing is that Cell was able to completely destroy his arm with an casual attack. That arleady shows how strong Cell was. It was just a casual attack but it could hurt a SSJ2. Thats why Cell was definitely in the same league as Gohan. Also just because you cant use your arm anymore doesnt mean that your power drops by half or whatever. Gohan should still have the same power as before, he just couldnt use his arm. Its the same with Shanks. Just cause you cant use your arm doesnt mean that you are loosing power from your body. Thats also why it makes sense that he could still beat Cell. As i said in my mind Cell and Gohan at that point nearly had the same strenght. The beam struggle is also hinting at that. Of course Gohans injury and the pain was distracting his concentration but Cell got distracted himself and Gohan got the right motivation from Goku to push everything at the right moment. Thats how he won and thats how you win if both fighters have similar strenght. The right moment is the deciding factor.

Wrong. Not only did Vegeta's distraction cause Cell's power to momentarily diminish, but Gohan's power being "cut in half" was BS. At half power, he would not have maintained his SS2 power. Not only that, but Cell broke a full powered SS2Gohan's arm with one hit and owned him for the entire kamehameha struggle. Cell was stronger.

Adam Parente thank you

[@darkinferno1219]

4:24 for those that play DBZ games this is why Cell always sounds like first form Cell when he gets hit regardless of what form he’s in.

[@mikkey246]

Ahhĥhh

[@hunterotte4085]

I would love for Cell to return, he is my favorite character in the series. But he likely won't because of how annoying his spots are to animate. Too bad one of the characters with the most potential won't make a return because of an aspect that could be removed and nobody would care. Frankly, give him Freeza's gold form. Then make the gold form have 0 spots and only ever show him in the gold form. Aside from the glaring issue that the form is hard to maintain over lengthy periods of time sending the community into an uproar on how he shouldn't be capable of that, fixed.

[@succubastard1019]

Toriyama just said that the spots were annoying to draw, I never really heard anything about the animation. besides, Tori doesn't write Dragonball on his own, so that wouldn't be a problem unless he feels bad for Toyotaro. And like you said, at worst they would just give him a new form with no spots.

[@JJJJ-he8bz]

Cells dna remembered trunks and vegetas power and he got them after getting his perfect form

[@eugenewelch5204]

I got a question..what if Cell absorb Android 16?

[@RedVelvetUnderground333]

Eugene Welch he can't, 16 is pure machine, 17 18 are part human. Android doesn't rlly fir them since they're not all machine, cyborg would be better term

[@Toguro45]

If I remember correctly I think he did try to absorb his energy while in imperfect form and of course it did nothing lol tho I don't remember if that scene is canon or not

[@eugenewelch5204]

Wow see I didn't know if he could or not but he did that would be something...I think

[@blackpow3r]

Yes, he tried to suck energy from 16 during their fight but it did nothing to him.

[@checkers34]

A lot of characters bulk up, it's not a form just a power up. Master roshi did it, trunks vegeta and even goku before he knew the ssj transformation.

[@PerfectionUnleashed]

YES!...My favorite character, design, fight(Goku vs P. Cell), and of course Bruce Falconer Perfect Cell theme!

[@Aeon1989]

When I hear Geekdom mention Manga chapters and episode numbers, I just imagine him behind a podium speaking to his congregation.

[@burner5618]

3:39 he's taller than piccolo, who's taller than almost everyone else

[@serioushamster]

I wonder if Cell could go Freiza's golden form and super saiyan?

[@JStieloSoloPhysique1987]

10:13 GEEKDOM IS A PSYCHIC

[@lucidmind9676]

Of course as a kid, I only preferred his Perfect Cell design because of how strong it made him but watching the series back as an adult that can fully understand the story and tension, I now love his imperfect/1st form just because how creepy and new it was to Dragon Ball. The tension was so high after his introduction because of no one being able to trace him and his ability to absorb, the scene where he drained the life out that guy in front of Piccolo still gives chills whenever I watch it. Also I think Cell couldn’t fit in the time machine not because of his height but because of his wings made him wider than Trunks

[@NY-Buddy]

Geekdom101, heres my thing, i believe Cell remembers all abilities used against him not just what hes born with

[@Bornheck]

Kuribohchaos8 It’s more because he has Goku’s cells. Goku was a fast learner, able to learn the Kamehameha after watching it ONCE. So it stands to reason that Cell would have this trait from Goku as well

[@truffle6082]

goku has the ability mimicry he can copy anything he sees done , majin buu fat buu also has this ability.

[@WeBarelySober]

Out running errands with my girl... but then BY GAWD GEEKDOM COMES IN WITH A ANOTHER TRANSFORMATION VID 😱 so then the priorities started kicking in.

[@daddydreet245]

i'd like to see what would happen if cell trained like frieza did. he's part saiyan so he could un-lock more power. also, wonder how he'd look if he'd absorbed 18 first. would his 2nd form be the same? perfect cell absorbed by buu would be awesome too.

[@Clemoney88]

Cell was only created because Android 17 and 18 threaten to kill Dr. Gero. I believe when Dr.Gero shut them off the first time that's when he planned and started to make Cell.

[@Gking0906]

Cleeche Copeland that’s not the case because in trunks’ future cell also exists and as we know gero was unable to shut down 17 and 18 when he activated them the first time, that’s why present 17 and 18 are different than their future counterpart because in the future gero didn’t have time to modify them after they tried to kill him the first time

[@imtheonehero9305]

Cell is one of the best designs ever in anime.

[@joshualowe1821]

Cell NEEDS to return in Dragon Ball Super. He came back during Goku and Krillin's training for the Tournament of Power, but only as a imaginary ghost warrior.

[@spiritteddy9393]

1st form Cell's wings and tail would have gotten in the way when he tried to sit in the time machine. I doubt he would have thought to rip 'em off for the ride.

[@theamazinggamerdjmc5906]

great job on this video and can you do Super Saiyan 4 now please

[@CMan-x7k]

I always thought that the reason the destruction disk didn't work was because of how hard his body was. Not because he was stronger.

[@PZAXR]

So the long awaited question, Would you kill baby hitler if you could go back in time. Trunks and Krillin: Yes over and over and over if we could.

[@LupercalRising]

Ive just realised cell was vain and arrogant because of 17 and 18 joining his personality
