Favourite moment from Dragonball

[Antitonic]

The two parts that always stick out in my memory are:

Goku vs. Mercenary Tao
and
Gohan vs. Cell

Yes, Goku going SS against Freiza is a great moment, but you can't deny Cell's general awesomeness or the epic [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9-xAViaWJvI] music [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aUCSNrACjdE].

The ss2 Goku vs ss2-Majin Vegeta fight comes to mind.
Also namek saga was interesting.

 

[Arsen]

Watching Trunks and Goten fight Hitler.

Admit it. This is the only correct answer.

 

[General_Tragg]

I liked it when Vegeta sounded like a whiskey drinker ^___^

Which dub is that?

 

[Hazy992]

RRRGGH I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS! YOU WON'T ESCAPE, MY WRAAAAAAATH! I'LL GET YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!"

''FILTHY DOUBLE CROSSERS! YOU'LL RUE THE DAY, YOU HEAR ME?! YOU'RE FINISHED! DAMN IT ALLLLLLLLLLL!''

 

[Urgh76]

Watching Trunks and Goten fight Hitler.

Admit it. This is the only correct answer.

That it is.

Although, I originally came into this thread thinking that it meant the actual "Dragonball" series, not the Z version.

From that, a favorite would definitely have to be Goku vs Jackie Chun

That was just amazing.

 

[Soviet Heavy]

RRRGGH I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS! YOU WON'T ESCAPE, MY WRAAAAAAATH! I'LL GET YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOU!"

''FILTHY DOUBLE CROSSERS! YOU'LL RUE THE DAY, YOU HEAR ME?! YOU'RE FINISHED! DAMN IT ALLLLLLLLLLL!''

Why don't we meet halfway?

I like this compromise. OK! TFS does indeed kick ass

One of the greatest moments of my childhood. I remember seeing this version first since my older brother had bootlegged the entire Cell Saga on VHS, but it was subbed, not dubbed. It didn't matter, I would rewind and watch this very scene over and over again, wide-eyed and in awe of the shear awesomeness.

It wasn't until later that I saw the English dubbed version, and the strength the original scene had was just diminished significantly with the added monologue and music. It's not always true, but sometimes the original Japanese is superior to its English counterpart.

trunks first landing from the future begin total badassness. with a SWORD.

 

[cswurt]

This is the single greatest scene in all of Dragon Ball.

 

[Leemaster777]

There can only be one, true correct answer to this question:


Search your feelings, you know it to be true.

 

[nuba km]

pretty much any scene to do with kid buu, highlights including his taking a nap and his constant pounding on his chest, well until he realises that goku can actually do something.

 

[Colour Scientist]

When Gohan gets really badass fighting Cell.

I had the biggest crush on him when I was 9 or 10.

 

[Z of the Na'vi]

enemy: I have defeated you!! ha ha ha ha ha!

goku: RROAOAOAOAOAAAAAGHGAHAHGAAAAA!!!!!

*hair grows longer*

Now I have the power to destroy the planet!

Enemy: ROAAAAAAAAAARR!!!!

*enemy hair gets EVEEEEN LONGER!!*

Now 'I' have the power to destroy the solar system!

Goku: AAAAAGHGHAAAAA!!!

*hair grows to SUPER ULTRA LENGTH!*

Now I have the power to DESTROY THE KNOWN UNIVERSE!!!

Enemy: NOO! How is his hair so long?! I am defeated!

People say shit like this, and then go on to endlessly quote Gurren Laggan along the same lines?

Feh.

OT: By far it's when Super Vegeta blasts Perfect Cell with his Final Flash technique for the first time, as you also said, OP. That entire moment, including the music, the dialogue, and then finally, the bang, just encapsulate what the entire series is about.

It is a joke man. I love Dragon Ball Z. I can still find amusement in the hair jokes. Lighten up.

 

[Z of the Na'vi]

Fair enough.

Kind of hard to read sarcasm through, you know, text.

It was my own fault. I should have put more care into making my intent clear.

No worries. We're all DBZ-fans here. I apologize for flying off the metaphorical handle.

 

[Lunar Templar]

goku going SS for the first time far as DBZ gose

This is pretty much the best thing to happen in anything ever

which Hazy was kinda enough to provide for me.

@Hazy: that a challenge?
