What's Your Favorite Jokes from Dragon Ball Z Abridged?

Post by Winter »

For me it I'd say "Oh God your father's Goku." from Dead Zone

"Imma charging my attack"

Freeza vs. The Spirit bomb and his little "oh my god" as it eats his attack before going towards him.

Piccolo breaking the 4th wall when Goku let's Satan go up against cell "I can't tell if he's serious and that's very concerning"

And of course "I AM THE HYPE!!!"

"Just take the complement" from Turnks, Bulma, and Vageta
It's OK to make mistakes as long as you don't make the same ones. If you do then you're not learning.

"Bitch, I am adorable". Though I think this line was first said by Dean in Supernatural. It likewise gets the same reaction by that fanbase.

"I am Goku and I am insane!" "He means Saiyan".

The buildup of Freiza counting speeches where he was surprised when Goku said "I'm a gonna deck you in the snoz" with Freiza replying "Excuse me, that's a new one."

"I had Italian and it was nothing but Garlic!" after Popo took care of Garlic Jr and his minions. Though many of the scenes with Popo is gold.

Even the "I am going to call you Little Green" with Dende replying "it's your funeral" that creaking sound Popo made with his neck saying "I like you" was great.

There are good ones with the shorts they made for the Buu Saga that are great too. Vegeta's speech when he fought Goku with Goku saying something like I am just here to fight with Vegeta replying God I missed you. Or when Goku passed the fight saying Wait, New strong guy dropped wanna go see? Vegeta's response being yeah with a tone of admitting he wanted to go see too.

Oh lastly Vegeta's atonement "Squinty eyes on me bubble yum," it's so on point for not only DBZA but also even the real Vegeta. The whole Vegeta No! With Vegeta saying Vegeta Yes! When he explodes himself. Nice call back.

Oh and I love Vegeta calling Goten "Kakatot" is amusing and never heard anyone use that.
I got nothing to say here.

Another one and this is in the Buu saga. So in filter during the Garlic saga, Krillin had a ditzy girlfriend named Marion. They kept it in DBZA. In the series, the daughter of Krillin and 18 is named Marion.

Gohan goes to Krillin and then finds out the girl is named Marion. Gohan has the same reaction as the fanbase. 18 jumps in and says it's the name of her grandmother. Gohan leaves and turns out 18 and Krillin named Marion as a joke. To mess with everyone.

I love that Lazuli is in on the joke.

From the Buu bits I also love this bit

Videl: Hold on then, do we use he/him or they/them?
Krillin: Why? He's not nonbinary.
Piccolo: Well, definitely not. There's two of them in there.
Videl: No, Yeah, that's kind of my point.

Frieza's counting bit is one of the best villain moments in pretty much anything in that it's both chilling and also pretty funny as the namekians try to come up with something new and fail, and then it gets even better where they call back to it when Goku turns up and Frieza notes that's genuinely one that he hasn't heard before.

Also the worst is absolutely the repeated use of 'freaky alien genotype'.

Vegeta was a goldmine of comedy throughout.

"Where's the moon? WHERE'S THE DAMN MOON?!" "MOOOOOOOOOOOON!!!"

"We've learned to create artificial moons that provide the necessary—" "Question." "What?" "Are they made of green cheese?" "I'm going to enjoy this far more than I should."

"At least, things can't get any worse." "Vegeeeta." "Huh?" "Vegeeeeeta?" "What?" "I'm haunting you." "NNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

"Which means—which means—" "He took the dragonball." *Primal screaming as rational thought is impossible in this state*

"I think your rage broke, Vegeta." "SHUT UP GHOST OF NAPPA!"

And just his whole fight with Semi-Perfect Cell.

"This is an unfortunate turn of events." "Did you just talk out your ass?" "Well, to be fair, Vegeta, you are part of my DNA." "And that's the closest thing to damage you've done to me all day."

And how the movies took one scene of his getting kicking in the crotch and turned it into a running gag through three films.

There's also that moment of character development. "Huh. This is a new feeling: pride in someone else."

And character consistency. "Unfortunately, this is overshadowed by all this UNYIELDING RAGE!!!"

And how can I forget. "Jesus, I overslept. It's already night…for the first time since I got here…on a planet with…three…suns…" Brains works. "Oh you MOTHER FU—" Change scene. "CKERS!!!"
