Dragon Ball Z Abridged/YMMV

"Gohan: Krillin, stop, you're making him stronger!
 * Alas, Poor Villain:
 * The deaths of the Ginyu Force. Even Guldo's death was rather tragic, and he's the only one who wasn't going to be missed by the others.
 * The beatings and death of Vegeta in episode 27. The guy even cried when his attacks weren't working.
 * And the Fandom Rejoiced: The reception to when people found out Little Kuriboh was voicing Freeza. He arguably does a better Freeza than any of the professional VA's.
 * Angst What Angst: Not quite. Kid Vegeta just lost his planet, his entire race... and his father, but Nappa, in his wisdom, is taking him to DAIRY QUEEN! Vegeta agrees just to get Nappa to shut up. Then there's Gohan, who seemed generally okay about his dad never being around, but he does have issues, and it's beginning to show.
 * Broken Base: On the Team Four Star forums, do not mention about future appearances or reincarnations of Nappa. This is the best way to ask for a flame war.
 * Complete Monster:
 * Guru. See Moral Event Horizon below. It really says something when.
 * The misfit minion who raped Rudolph.
 * Ahem, Freeza. The fact he's polite and composed doesn't change it. If anything, it makes him even more disturbing. Just listen to "My favourite things."
 * Peaceful young races with fires on their houses/millions of voices all silenced like mouses/watching the cowards bow to their new king/these are a few of my favorite things.
 * Medamatcha from Lord Slug Abridged.
 * Crosses the Line Twice:
 * The Christmas Tree of Might special is especially full of this, between all the rape/molestation jokes (three words: "I raped Rudolph," and Krillin calling the mall Santa minion "worse than the ones that molest kids.") and Goku hoping Chi Chi gives him a blowjob that "thing she does with her mouth", which is what he's given every Christmas.
 * Freeza effortlessly tearing off Nail's arm is scary. Freeza letting Nail grow it back and then doing it again, with a cheerful "Yoink!" is hilarious.
 * Freeza impaling Krillin (and raising Krillin's "Owned Count" to 15). At first, it's gruesome. Then it gets funny when it hits 20 and Freeza begins getting one-up points from it.

Krillin: I... CAN'T... HELP... IT!! GAH!!"

"Freeza: Kidneypunch, kidneypunch, kidneypunch, kidneypunch, and pause... kidneypunch!"
 * Freeza taking on Vegeta does this rather frequently.

"Nappa: I am hilarious and you will quote everything I say."
 * Crowning Music of Awesome:
 * Both their rendition of "I'll Make A Man Out of You," and
 * If you hit  enough times, you can play a song..
 * Don't forget the the "Rockin' It Out" Fan Vid, which features Goku and Vegeta in an epic guitar duel.
 * Bardock - The Father of Goku Abridged featured both "Dare" and "The Touch" from Transformers: The Movie. Bardock even uses Prime's legendary "__ must be stopped, no matter the cost!" right before The Touch starts. CMOA indeed.
 * Nappa singing "Killing in the Name" for the Christmas album.
 * Vegeta singing "I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Dragonballs."
 * It may have been short, but Nappa's rendition of Kiss's Detroit Rock City was still awesome.
 * Freeza's ringtone is glorious.
 * "Yamcha the Scarfaced Bandit," which plays during Yamcha's fight with S.N.O.W. Man., who plays the song for fighting music.
 * "KILLING CRABS! IN THE OOOCEAN! KILL IT FAST! PAIN EXPLOSION, YEAH!!"
 * Goku makes his entrance on Namek to Hulk Hogan's theme. The sheer awesomesomeness made many a head explode.
 * Piccolo's arrival to the fight against Freeza is made even more Badass when framed by "Battle With Magus" from Chrono Trigger Resurrection.
 * Piccolo's arrival to the fight against Lord Slug is made even more Badass when framed by Stone Cold's theme, "Glass Shatters".
 * Nappa's short rendition of "Stupify" at the end of Lord Slug.
 * Dude, Not Funny:
 * Vegeta, as an Oozaru, makes a Christopher Reeves joke while crushing Goku's legs.
 * The Too Soon running gag.
 * Ear Worm: See the Crowning Music of Awesome section above.
 * Ensemble Darkhorse:
 * Nappa. It says a lot about the popularity of the character that they're bringing him around post mortem solely because of how much he pisses off Vegeta. Lampshaded in Dragon Ball Z Kai Abridged with this quote:

"Bulma: KILL IT WITH FIRE!"
 * Mr. Popo as well.
 * Dodoria, or at least his portrayal as an Faux Affably Evil Good Ol' Boy, seems to be getting remarkably popular for such a relatively minor character.
 * Zarbon eventually fell under this category, especially after what Episode 17 did to him. He even does the disclaimer opening!
 * Then there's the Ginyu Force. Team Four Star certainly knows how to make likably quirky villains.
 * Don't forget Super Kami Guru.
 * Despite getting his ass handed to him in the fight against Freeza, Nail still managed to be completely baddass and is one of the few people to actually piss him off and live.
 * Evil Is Sexy:
 * Bulma has an insane infatuation with Zarbon the first time she lays eyes on him. And...then he transforms and she is less enthused.

"Goku: Are... you coming on to me?"
 * Vegeta. In spades. Just read the Youtube comments on any given episode.
 * Foe Yay: Freeza toward Goku. Well, Goku thinks so anyway.

"Vegeta: Nine minutes eighteen seconds, NINE MINUTES EIGHTEEN SECONDS!
 * Nightmare Fuel: Now has its own page.
 * Funny Aneurysm Moment: Jeice is not fast enough with the "Not It" to tell Captain Ginyu about Guldo's death. After Goku and Vegeta get through with the rest of them, Jeice would have had to inform the Captain anyways.
 * Hilarious in Hindsight:

Nappa: What's that, Vegeta?

Vegeta: Happiest... moment... of... my life!"

"Nappa: (Realizing Gohan escaped his attack) Hey! Where'd he go? Did he disappear? Or was he never there to begin with?"
 * For those of you who don't get the gag, that's the time in the video when
 * Dragon Ball being Re Cut, remade, abridged if you will? Removing the Filler and Padding to condense the plot? A crazy idea, I tells ya.
 * Also, Megami33's Bulma and Little Kuriboh's Freeza sounded like Monica Rial's Bulma and Chris Ayre's Freeza before either of their performances were broadcast.
 * So, nudity makes you stronger on this planet.
 * Goku's voice actor is named MasakoX, which he confirmed that he named himself after Masako Nozawa, Goku's seiyuu. Take note that he started out two years before being cast as Goku.
 * Vegeta3986 tends to voice Butt Monkeys, such as Yamcha, Raditz, and Cui. After the reception of Naruto: The Abridged movie, he pretty much became the Yamcha of the Abridging community.
 * From episode of the Saiyan Saga where Goku returns from the dead;

"Now both of you. STRIP."
 * There was a running gag about Zarbon being Ambiguously Gay . Both Kaiser and J Michael Tatum (his actor in Dragonball Z Kai) are Straight Gay.
 * King Yemma's rant about his mahogany desk is a lot funnier now that another meme about mahogany has gone viral.
 * I Knew It:
 * Well, you know someone somewhere predicted that Jeice would be from Space Australia...
 * Likewise, you know someone somewhere predicted that Guldo would be "The Raditz" of the Ginyu Force.
 * Believe it or not, was planned from the very beginning. Yet the fans guessed that he would appear, and they were right!
 * Jerkass Woobie: Vegeta's a horrible man to be sure, but the sheer amount of abuse he gets put through in the name of comedy earns him a few sympathy points.
 * The Ginyu Force, especially Jeice and Burter.
 * Love to Hate: Freeza, so very much.
 * Magnificent Bastard: Freeza is one of those rare villains that manages to be both this and a Complete Monster.
 * Ginyu, who actually spends some moments as Freeza's Hypercompetent Sidekick.
 * Memetic Molester: is slowly turning into one of these as of episode 18, possibly subverted that he MIGHT have been acting at the time. And then in episode 24:

"Mr. Popo: I'm terrifying and a potential rapist, but I'll never say it flat out."
 * Mr. Popo as well.

": And that's why I was considered the most beautiful, and fertile, woman on my home planet. Before Freeza blew it up.
 * Memetic Mutation:
 * , in the abridged community.
 * As is Piccolo's ''MOOOOOON!"
 * Moral Event Horizon:
 * If Guru didn't cross it when he gave Nail a Rousing Speech that said he could defeat Freeza, then revealed that he knew full well that Nail had no chance and had sent Nail to die, then Guru definitely crossed it when
 * Freeza was already a Complete Monster before Season 2 started, but what really synches it is the absolute relish he displays when he kills . He goes even further during his savage No Holds Barred Beatdown of Vegeta, which is arguably worse than in the original. At least then he had the excuse of being royally pissed but in the Abridged series, You get the impression that he's torturing Vegeta for fun.
 * Most Annoying Sound: "Urgh. I just got here and this planet's already annoying me." -- Vegeta's reaction to Krillin's epic screaming fit at the start of episode 13.
 * Never Live It Down:
 * In-verse Example: Vegeta being a "Prison Bitch."
 * Getting dog biscuits thrown at his head by Vegeta, for Guldo.
 * Ron the Death Eater:
 * Both Porunga and Guru refer to a race of albino Namekians that were eliminated in "the purge" and based on their reactions to Krillin, they clearly performed that purge. Guru is also shown to be a sociopath and implied to be something more sinister.
 * Mr Popo is just plain scary.
 * Squick: How everyone reacts when learning that Cui/Kui/Kiwi's race reproduces asexually. Also, the.

Vegeta: He tends to do that, also huh-uugh."

"Goku: C'mon, you deserve a proper burial.
 * Tear Jerker: Freeza's beat-down of Vegeta.

Freeza: Ah, yes. A proper burial: an unmarked grave on an empty planet in the middle of Nowhere, Space. Honestly, I'd say it's too good for him.

Goku: I'll be sure to give Freezer one for you, best buddy. Goodbye."

"Krillin: THAT THING'S A GUY?!?"
 * Took a Level In Jerkass: Krillin in season 2. He never bothers to learn Dende's name and berates him for going on about his family's death (though since he was resurrected before and naturally knows anyone can be brought back but its still pretty cruel). He also keeps being more cowardly and refusing to fight. Possibly that this may just be a result of everyone being a dick to him but its hard to feel bad for him compared to season 1.
 * Ugly Cute: Guldo crosses into this, thanks to the endearing voice Takahata101 gives him.
 * Unfortunate Implications: Blue Popo is created to replace the "racially insensitive" Mr. Popo. Except no one told Mr. Popo, who was not amused.
 * Viewer Gender Confusion: Freeza, of course. Gohan inadvertently breaks it to Krillin at the beginning of episode 14 when Gohan admonishes Krillin for calling Freeza a "fag," which to Krillin means a "Freaky Alien Genotype," not a derogatory term for a homosexual.


 * And now as of episode 15,.
 * Fridge Brilliance, once you add in the fact that.
