Holy s#!t, Broly's more powerful than Goku!

No, I'm serious. I didn't get the "I'm just saiyan" jokes until I heard people complaining about "the narrator said saiyan wrong" in that DBZ Kinect trailer.

I mean, saiyan is saiyan. You'd think people would pronounce it like that being a Japanese show :/

Everyone says it that way cuz thats how it was in the english dub, Ive never seen then original japanese dub.

So blame it on the english version of the show.

Just watch this and all will make sense.

I'm still surprised that English viewers pronounce saiyans wrong.

The dub did it. It's not like american children know what vowel sounds japanese uses. Even those of us who have since learned don't care enough to break the habit or find the childish ignorance kinda cute and mockingly "defend" the incorrect pronunciation we're nostalgic for.

heh true

Then again the official stuff use Freeza than Freezer.
 
Have we got onto what the best dub is yet?

Abridged

German, starting with Namek saga, best voice work evar !

Once they switched out Vegeta's voice actor, it was pure bliss, oh and the OST, i even bought it on holiday to Germany, but i cant find it anymore ;_;
 
My favorite part of this is the "Amir0x is straight" comment at the top. I really hope non-contextual Amir0x comments on YouTube becomes a thing.

You're a bad person.

I'd just like to add that once every few years, I'll watch Vegeta turn SS for the 1st time against the androids, and this viewing ALWAYS results in goosebumps. The sleeper has awoken.
 
DBZ is still the best anime.

US Vegeta theme is superior to everything both manmade and natural.

Fast forwarded and got Tupac, so everything is right with the world.
 
Why does all the Dragon Ball Z stuff in HD look like shit, I remember the art being much more detailed than that. Have they traced everything and smoothed it out in the process of bringing it up to HD?

I loved how Broly went all linebacker on everyone in the first movie and exposed Vegeta as a bitch.

Yes, x1000. A shame that the later two Broly movies were far inferior to the first.
 

Gohan's hands busting through is awesome. Still can't compare though.


These are amazing for different reasons. Final Flash because its just rad and Atonement actually made me slightly emotional watching it. However they can't begin to compare to the Gohan Cell fight because you get:

Broken Arm Gohan + Last ditch Kamehameha by Vegita(best character in DBZ universe) + Piano music of epicness + Panicked Goku(NOW IS YOUR CHANCE!) + GOHAN SCREAM PLUS WALKING TOWARD CELL ONE HANDED!!!!

Nothing touches it and you guys know it.
