Cell Max probably wears those shoes because the scientists got tired of hearing that weird noise he makes when he walks on his normal feet

[@RacingSnails64]

Thank you! Exactly how I feel. Bringing back Cell's personality would have felt like cheap fanservice. As I've rewatched super hero I have come to enjoy it more. And i enjoy that it is almost a sitcom between serious battles.

Toriyama loves Cells design so much that he repeated it in Chrono Trigger and Dragon Quest XI.

I personally love villains that can switch between being silly and menacing, and/or be both simultaneously. That's why I like The Joker, Bowser, Dr. Eggman, Kefka, and all the Dragon Ball villains.

Masakox. I just heard some bad news on geekdom 101 channel. Akira Toriyama has passed away.

[@mattwo7]

Ah yes, the question of the ages: "What are those?!"

[@blackjacksetzer7748]

i could guess they look weird because toriyama stile has always have more "angular" footwear, and the cell boots look way more round so they pop up as a bit weird

[@BeavisSaves]

I'm glad he never talked, that and the stupid boots and the Semi Perfect form makes him more individual and a monster. He ain't our Perfect Lad, he's a beefy monsterous clone, a bit like the original but very different and not at all perfect. And that is fine, he's his own guy.

[@apolloknight9521]

Stupid shoes? Really? Honestly, I thought he’s got that drip.

[@kozaky6584]

Bro said "what are those"

[@PotBellyLion]

Rip Akira Toriyama, you'll be missed..

[@alcatrazvongola]

I think this is why the Granolah arc did not resonate with a lot of people. Toyotaro focused too much on edgyness, powerful transformations and the characters being cool over remembering that DB is an action comedy. It felt like a big Bardock fanfic and shows how the fans perceive DB over what DB really is.

[@Haverok_]

I think that's why one of the best sequences in Granolah is the part, when they jump between the worlds and we have some silly gags there.

[@johnathanholmes1297]

@@treypickens4324 Oh, I was actually joking since I seen many tribute to the guy on KZbin. I am however looking for a tribute that is more than Dragon Ball. For example, my favorite game created by him was Chrono Trigger.

[@Jmaul85]

RIP to the man who gave us the greatest Manga and Anime series of all time.

[@NicolasMendoula]

Well Cell Max is his own character he isn't Perfect Cell. He is blunt brutal and rushed brought to life prematurely. That's why his shape are round and gross Perfect Cell is refined. Sharp and more precise. That's why his shapes are more acute and complex.

[@SKy_the_Thunder]

Regarding Cell Max' "character": I feel that it was necessary to make him such a mindless force of nature in order to believably have Gohan go all out. Despite everything, he still prefers talking down his opponents, giving them any chance to stand down and talk things out instead. But by making the final boss a monstrosity like that cut off that entire option at the root.

[@patrickplevak126]

Still havent seen this movie, the MILISECOND I saw his design I was like CELL MOON BOOTS?????

[@BlueRainbowSky66]

MasakoX: "What's the deal with Cell Max's stupid shoes?" Me: "...They're stupid."

[@FriendlyDarkwraith]

Recent tragedies momentarily put aside, if they ever wanted to truly revive Cell, they could just go the Freeza route: wish him back (he's a fully organic being, this should be theoretically possible), and put him in a perfected version of Cell Max's body. Perfect Cell Max would only really work if he's literally just an upgraded version of OG Cell. Honestly, the whole "nucleus/cluster" thing would be the perfect excuse to give him a new body; he's like a parasite.

[@wraithhh23]

[@giodawg45]

they’re for ballin’

[@badgerforrest-blincoe2879]

I just thought Cell Max's shoes were the animator's way of addressing the question of how some characters' shoes (mainly Piccolo and Gohan's) didn't get completely destroyed when they fought despite looking like they were made out of relatively flimsy material. Also I think that Cell Max was also Toriyama's way of finally exploring how dangerous second form Cell could be, given that it was his favorite form, and he was pressured by the editors to change it after reader backlash over the design

[@matthewhughes7735]

One of my favorite things is the fact 17 is just so obsessed with having a boat it. Or Freiza wanting to be taller is great.

[@Dark_Jaguar]

How often do you look at another monster's shoes?

[@GodittoC]

Good question

[@weirdchick257]

Almost like Second Form Cell that he's designed from had shoes too...

@@Elyseon because Cell Max wasn’t made from the cells of the world’s best fighters.

@@ElyseonI think it’s debatable if cell max is even a bio android considering his body crumbles like stone when damaged. He is just a weird “thing” that’s really strong and kinda looks like an enemy from the past.

The shoes are so much more chonky than Cell phase 2. I guess it makes SOME sense due to the square-cube law. Now if he could stop doing Krillin and the other humans dirty.

[@drebodollaz3504]

Their wardrobe looks more Alien inspired. The alien films

[@RiaGracewood]

Honestly, what you said near the end there has had me worried. I've always felt that Toyataro just doesn't 'get' Dragonball. Exactly like you said, he always focuses on the 'cool' aspects of the characters, while completely ignoring the silly goofiness. And it's that kind of goofiness that defines Dragonball as a franchise. With Toriyama having tragically passed, Dragonballs legacy will have been passed down to his successors. I know this isn't really fair, it's extremely rare for someone to be able to perfectly replicate the vision of another author, but Dragonball is such a cultural phenomenon that it'll be a real shame to see it change into something utterly alien to the original vision.

[@TROLOLOLOLOL818]

Cell Max could have been a giant rock for all its lack of personality brought to it. The only thing memorable to me is how unremarkable it was. I only ever hear it talked of as being a nostalgia bait wannabe of his previous counterpart. Kinda like Hirudegarn. Big monster strong! Big monster no personality! Big monster… boring. So empty. Cell Max is flat soda compared to the fizzy wonder of Perfect Cell. Perfect Cell did it his way… Cell Max doesn’t have a way. Unearned transformations and poorly implemented monsters oh my. Love the Gammas tho-- And Hedo was priceless.
