Is there a Dragon Ball Z thread? If not

chaozu’s a bitch…why u wanna play as the guy who always gets killed off first in battles.

For completeness sake. I mean he was there during the fight and tried to kill Nappa, even though it didn’t work.

Jaja, that video was too funny :lol:
Damn man, watching that vid had me go out and look for the original.

And shit, I’ve never seen this uncunt:
[media=youtube]kqz5RSdQ0Kw[/media] - Gohan vs Cell Jrs’.
Wow, he split those dudes in half? Too serious.

Cell jacks Trunks’ time machine in a 3rd alternate timeline where he killed the androids, but didn’t know about Cell. Gero creating other androids is one of those butterfly effects. Trunks messed with stuff so things turned out a bit differently. It’s not supposed to make sense.

That video was too good!

I’ll give you the 2 time line paradox answer

  1. Because F.Trunks was going to go back to his time line before seeing the #17 and #18 he was going to return weaker than F.Cell… (no Rosat training with Vegeta)

-Cell would killed him and taken the time machine because he wasn’t strong enough to kill F.17 or F.18 either.

  1. Because Cell goes back F.Trunks gets stronger than F.17 and F.18 (see Rosat training with Vegeta) so doesn’t loose to F.Cell… this action will.

a. Prevent F.trunks from training in the past long enough to beat F.Cell. (parodox)
b. Creates a 3rd timeline.
note: kid Trunks never fights Cell and Goten is born in main timeline.

I’ll give you another 2 time line paradox answer

  1. Gero made andriods 1-20 (20 being himself) in both timelines but did not activate them all.
    note: Given the numbering, #16 was likely “made” before #17 or #18 were “Borged”. A loyal #19 would get destroyed along with Gero if he were activated before anyway (#17 and #18 were that strong)

  2. F.Trunks coming back created a new situation were more androids were activated.
    note: #17 and #18 are stronger than F.17 and F.18 according to F.Trunks.
    likely from SSJ Vegeta’s fight data that Gero saw before activating #17 and #18. The Z warriors were already stronger (even Yamcha) than there selves from F.Trunks timeline.

  3. F.Trunks may only know of the androids that F.Bulma knows of and F.Gohan bothered to tell him about.
    note: Piccolo and Vegeta could still have killed Gero and #19 in alt timelines (assume Piccolo merge with Kami and SSJ1 Vegeta takes place; no Dende though)

Wtf happened to the guy? Explosive diarrhea? Earthquake?

The head of his friend got smashed under a foot…

someone rep this guy :clapdos:
too fucking good

Actually, about this video.
Anyone know how the Jap version looks like? I’m curious of what song players when Gohan takes out the Cell Jrs. on the Jap version but I can’t seem to find the footage of Gohan taking them out.

it’s not the “me vs me” song iirc :wonder: i may still have that subbed on vhs… if I do :confused: and they work i’ll give you an answer

It’s pretty silent for the most part, but then that crazy dramatic music starts up around the time Gohan looks like he’s gonna blast Kurririn along with the Cell Jrs…intense!

YES. I just watched that trailer above and it reminded me of the legacy of goku. Get that shit, its easy, but it’s fun as hell. I like the second one more though.

As cheesey as the American song sounds like, it makes Gohan look more serious in the American version than the Jap one IMO.
However, the song that plays during Gohan’s lvl 2 transform is too good.

Dragonball Sequals Exclusive:

errrr…Me thinks these guys aren’t paying any attention to what people are saying…

So basically, the 2nd movie is going to be DBE + more mangled characterizations?

Sounds like fun.

Is anyone going to follow DBZ Kai this spring season? I’m sure there’ll be fansubbers who’ll be ready to sub that day #1, but re-watching a filler-less DBZ might be kinda fun and is also good in bringing back the nostalgia at the same time.

sounds like the next sequel would still be dragon ball sans the Zeto… perhaps the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament. Intro Krillin, the Crane clan, Yajurobi, and Kami

james masters (the vampire, not ken) really didn’t get a chance to play King Piccolo well in the DBE; he had as few lines as halle berry in X-men (although… she couldn’t play storm well imho either). I initially wanted Djimon Hounsou to get the role in hopes of him playing Ma-junior also… meh

so if they were going 7 movies (1)king piccolo (2)ma-jr (3)radditz to vegeta (4-5)ginyu to freiza (6-7)androids to cell

note: didn’t much like the movie, but hope[d] some non-manga fed fans and those unfamiliar would like it.

Dragon ball Kai: Saiyan invasion - Japanese Story spot
http://www.gametrailers.com/player/47519.html

Here it is:
[media=youtube]O-BoYE9_Ua8&feature=channel[/media]
the first episode of Dragonball Kai.

Yeah, it’s raw, be we all know the plot of DBZ, so it shouldn’t be a problem, right?

My thoughts:
The stuff from the Bardock special was a welcome inclusion. I’ve never seen it before, so I really enjoyed it, and it sets of some great foreshadowing. It makes the series seem more planned-out and thought through than it actually is, lol.

This is definitely the definitive version of DBZ, visually speaking. It looks really, really nice. Obviously, it’s still not on the level of a modern show, but it’s a fantastic remastering job.

I like the new BGM. Can’t really put my finger on why, but I do.

Opening: I’m torn on this. Visually, it’s breathtaking. It kinda cheapens the rest of the show by being so pretty. The scenes with Goku and Vegeta are especially jaw-dropping. The song isn’t bad either, but it just doesn’t feel like a DBZ song. Yes, part of this is my bias to HEAD-CHA-LA and Hironobu Kageyama in general, but after doing almost all the vocal music for the original series and video games, he just feels synonymous with DBZ now. I don’t dislike the new song, but it sounds like it would be more at home on, say, One Piece (nothing against One Piece, mind you).

Ending: Definitely better than the original. Once again, absolutely fantastic visuals, but this song clicked with me better as well. It really has a sort of DBZ feel.

My biggest complaint is the fact that they left some of the crap with Gohan in the forest intact. Yeah, it’s condensed, but it’s still unnecessary, and I feel the show would be better off without it.

^ Beaten to the punch. =(

Watching it now… Graphics are better… I miss the cheesy music from the original JP version… it feels like all the charm has gone… Series is def moving faster…

Sorry for the Monbaby-esque post.

fuckin sick. now THIS i would buy a box set of. i would never rewatch dbz because of all the fast forwarding needed, but this is like someone’s done it for you!
