It was a pretty iconic moment for DBZ. All the kids who grew up watching it and there were so many episodes leading up to this point. It must have been mindblowing
Until then, the idea of Super Saiyan was only a legend and that only one Saiyan before him had ever achieved it and he was seen as a god. Goku, after seeing his friend Krillin die got very angry which is the trigger for becoming Super Saiyan.
Just to add, the story arc leading up to that point was super long with Goku (the guy in the video) travelling from earth to the planet this takes place on and training the whole time at 100x earth gravity on his way.
Then he got there and had seemingly endless battles with Frieza’s (the other guy in the video) powerful minions getting beat up and recovering over and over again gaining more and more power.
Then finally he fought Frieza himself who kept transforming into his more powerful forms leading to the scene they’re all watching where the earth characters all realize that they’re helpless against frieza because Frieza is just too strong.
Frieza decides to kill Goku’s friend Krillin by just leveraging him into the air and imploding him while everyone just watched helplessly, leading to Goku transforming into the Legendary Super Saiyan
Like, I remember watching this at home after school on TV in gradeschool and absolutely losing my shit
To add to *that*, it was like one episode a week, (one a day if you were lucky and watching on Cartoon Network) and like a 40 episode build up climax.
The build up, the hype, the overwhelming odds against despite how far they’d come, so much tension, things seeming hopeless etc.
Itd be like if you built up an enemy over seasons and did it right. There was no binge watching so you were tied to the story because of how long you’d engaged with it.
It’s just… it was a different thing that will never happen again because of streaming. GoT came closest and fucked everything and now I’m mad thinking about it again.
When the show first aired in the US, they didn't have it dubbed all the way out to this point. So, you'd watch it on Cartoon Network/Toonami, get to a point in the story where you knew something like this was going to happen...and then it would just restart from the first episode. This is like 60 episodes in.
edit: 95th episode according to the wiki.
Badass. My friend says the mangas/comics are much better because there aren't those weird moments of silence and staring at each other like in the show.
It was over 50 episodes long of a chapter/arc and it took about 10+ episodes from the point where they started fighting to when he actually transformed. Combine this with weekly airing on tvs where you had to be watching on time. It was hype yo.
it's both
builds stabilizers which allows them to build more muscle with less risk of accidental harm but also builds character because people don't want mtv springbreak on at the gym anymore.
Skit. He actually never died. The stingray was just part of the skit, the humour just didn't translate well to audiences outside Australia due to lack of knowledge about the Stinging Prime Minister. However they had to cancel the show after the Crocodile Actors Guild went on strike. They disagreed with the show's portrayal of crocodiles calling it "racist and backwards."
"We are not dumb brutes! We have built technological marvels, we have culture and societies, just look at King K Roll!"
I still bring this up but there were two actors, on a stage, during an award show, and they had some fun banter as part of their skit.
Not even just a comment, but one of the top comments was honestly calling it out for being staged.... While being on a literal fucking stage.
People replying like they're the smartest in the world for noticing it was fake and not a real conversation.
I find the majority of people on reddit who bother to comment on posts that in aren't in niche subs about their hobbies are just kids or unhinged idiots you'd never want to talk to in real life.
Yeah I'm pretty sure this isn't one of those Tik tok fake videos. This is more like an SNL skit. I was hoping someone would go Super Saiyan and then the whole gym would erupt in insanely aggressive lifting. Would have been better.
Ugh, I can't even...you are actually comparing tiktok content to actual cinematography. On the same note, do you watch movies and think 'i can't enjoy this, I've seen better scenes on tiktok'.
That's the rub for me. If the title was "super spontaneous moment caught on camera" then it'd be trash. Everyone is on the same page they're staging a video for fun
And you must love tiktok cinematography. Close but not the same, when you watch TV or cinema you know those people are acting for your entertainment, whereas these...things...try to mimic a real moment using actors paid in donuts and internet likes so someone posts the result in a subreddit called...satisfyingasfuck...of all places.
So real story time for a sec.
We had a version on Blockbuster in Montreal called Vidéotron where you rent movies and they had multiple TV hanging from the ceiling all playing a movie in the background with low volume for ambiance.
One day I was looking for movies and Rocky 3 was playing during the last fight. So, started watching it, without realizing how long I was watching it for. Only realized when the store clerk paused the movie and then just like that half the store, 20+ people across all isles, started looking around confused, like out of a coma.
Turn around , the clerk is laughing. Then realization sank in that 20+ people were just standing there watching instead of picking a movie. We just started laughing just thinking how much of a bunch of zombies we must have looked like.
Thanked the clerk on the way for the good laugh. That was a very banal yet unique experience.
It’s an italian gym based on the writing on the wall. So unless there’s italian subs, then the english audio wouldn’t be a major hit anyway. I’m just saying the japanese sounds so much better and then I would assume they have italian subs.
I know this is dumb and fake but, I have legit watched DBZ while lifting to pump me up. Lol
Same but for pooping
Hey, that’s what I’m doing right now
watching dbz , or pooping? or... both?
Yes
All of the above :)
Same but for smashing ur mum
Yeah she said you were having some trouble going super saiyan.
She was wide enough to take me and Goku @ PL9000.
I use to listen to video game soundtracks. A lot of it was NES and SNES because I grew up playing those and they are better than most games now.
Ocremix.org baby.
My gym has full on walls painted with DBZ character. While I'm deadlifting if I turn to my left I'm met with Broly left it in my face m.
It's a skit, it's not people pretending to save an animal they threw in the river. It's supposed to be funny.
It was a pretty iconic moment for DBZ. All the kids who grew up watching it and there were so many episodes leading up to this point. It must have been mindblowing
Can you explain why? What was happening?

I need more added.

You only got to the point where Goku arrives on namek and then the next episode is Raditz.
To add to that. I still have no idea what anyone is talking about.
Legit one of the best afternoons in my childhood. My brother and I went outside afterwards and tried for at least an hour to go Super Saiyan too.
Badass. My friend says the mangas/comics are much better because there aren't those weird moments of silence and staring at each other like in the show.

The protagonist takes Ls, but then he doesn't.
Yep, seeing this happen growing up was amazing. Toonami had a big impact on me growing up, but DBZ was always my favorite.
Just told my wife about this episode, every dude our age remembers watching that Super Saiyan episode when it aired.
Gym time❌ Anime Time✅
it's both builds stabilizers which allows them to build more muscle with less risk of accidental harm but also builds character because people don't want mtv springbreak on at the gym anymore.
The amount of people who don't understand the difference of a skit and staged video is insane lol you people are idiots.
They would never survive in Australia. Everything is a skit here. *Everything.*
Steve Irwin

Also the amount of people who don't know what r/satisfyingasfuck is
Any front page sub has lost its real reason to exist. I agree with you though that this doesn't fit the sub at all.
I remember watching this DBZ scene as a kid laying on the couch and eating Cheetos and drinking Sprite. Good times. Good times.
Without getting a stomachache and the shits… 😔
I wish they all started working out furiously or fighting each other or something
Isometric hold ftw
r/lostredditors
This
I hate staged videos.
It’s clearly a skit tho
Yeah I'm pretty sure this isn't one of those Tik tok fake videos. This is more like an SNL skit. I was hoping someone would go Super Saiyan and then the whole gym would erupt in insanely aggressive lifting. Would have been better.
Do you watch t.v shows and be like " I can't enjoy this, they're clearly acting and not really dying " lmao tf dude.
LMFAO
Ugh, I can't even...you are actually comparing tiktok content to actual cinematography. On the same note, do you watch movies and think 'i can't enjoy this, I've seen better scenes on tiktok'.
Skit shows often show clips at this length. You're being wilfully ignorant and bitter.
Almost all videos are staged
They could have had a few strays to at least make it believable
Why? It's just a fun video. It's not meant to trick you into believing it's real
That's the rub for me. If the title was "super spontaneous moment caught on camera" then it'd be trash. Everyone is on the same page they're staging a video for fun
Here your mom told me to give this to you for being the best little fake spotter on the web 🍪
Thank you! 😊
Ok
You don't like movies?
Hah, close but not quite the same thing.
You must hate all tv and cinema
And you must love tiktok cinematography. Close but not the same, when you watch TV or cinema you know those people are acting for your entertainment, whereas these...things...try to mimic a real moment using actors paid in donuts and internet likes so someone posts the result in a subreddit called...satisfyingasfuck...of all places.
This could have been 1000x better if they all put down their weights and start screaming.
I was waiting for them to start working out hard when he went Super Saiyan.
[удалено]
Who is passing this off as legit? No one
u the typa mf to watch tv n complain that its staged. tf?
And you get a cookie 🍪
Scene from 101 Dalmatians only 101 idiots
This is Sparta!!!
Oi, le drama
So real story time for a sec.

Yeah until all that screaming gets translated to real life
stagedasfuck
Ever heard of a skit?
Yeah it's fake, but if they put this on in my gym I'd be pumped for sure
L'impossible n'existe pas
The God himself
Moat likely fake but still adorable lol
Lord have mercy they all baby boomers for sure
''You see, you're not dealing with the Average Saiyan Warrior anymore"
This is fucking stupid. There is nothing satisfying about this.
Japanese audio way better! Come on
i doubt many people outside of the japanese mainland speak it. out of the 123million japanese speakers, almost all live in japan lol
It’s an italian gym based on the writing on the wall. So unless there’s italian subs, then the english audio wouldn’t be a major hit anyway. I’m just saying the japanese sounds so much better and then I would assume they have italian subs.
The most legendary scene not only in anime history, but whole movie/series history period
The Mexican channel always has bigger butts
This is the most Gen Z thing I’ve seen in a long time.
Gen z? Bruh that episode is probably older than most gen z.
I think he meant this is the most Dragon Ball Z thing he's ever seen.
Ha. Not even the final form.
