For some added context, this is a picture of Mr Popo and I believe the line is specifically from DBZA.

Now tell them about the pecking order.

There are worms

Then dirt

Then players that split up

[–] blackbelt352@ttrpg.network 2 points 1 year ago

It goes you, the dirt, the worms inside the dirt, popo's stool, kami, and popo. Any questions maggots?

Yeah but the version of DBZ abrieged. Which I hoghly recommand as its funny as fuck

@sammytheman666@ttrpg.network @Currens_felis@lemmy.ml Not only very funny but, in my opinion, a better story with better pacing and better characters than the original.

Mr. Popo as a horrifying sadistic eldritch being was absolutely an improvement.

It's starts a little rough but quickly turns into something truly amazing

I dont know, the redneck in episode 1 sold me

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Personally for me it was the line:

"Look Vegeta, a pokemon."

Frickin broke me lol

[–] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

spits blood

"RENEGADE FOR LIFE!"

[–] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

They did a lot well. But they fuckin' nailed Vegeta.

"Are you as disappointed as I am?"

[–] Hexagon@feddit.it 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

For me it was "Kage bunshin no jutsu!"

I noticed the familiar but unexpected sound effect just before the line, and then it hit me full force

[–] sammytheman666@ttrpg.network 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Care to elaborate ? Im curious

[–] Hexagon@feddit.it 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Remember the part where Krillin and Piccollo make 2 copies of themselves to fight Nappa? They edited that moment to look like they make Naruto's technique

[–] sammytheman666@ttrpg.network 4 points 1 year ago

Ahh so that thing you aaid is from naruto. Makes sense

[–] sickday@kbin.social 10 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"Oh god no, mah marijuana patch!!..."

Man I've gotta rewatch it now.

"Protect me, gun!"

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)
[–] Currens_felis@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Yes, I watched the hellsing abridged many times over tho

[–] Kichae@lemmy.ca 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The last time they did this, I found five corpses.

[–] blackbelt352@ttrpg.network 11 points 1 year ago

He laughed when I said 5.

[–] 21Cabbage@lemmynsfw.com 11 points 1 year ago

I even heard the voice reading this.

[–] Tedesche@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

YOU MUST CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYLONS!

For anyone not aware, TFS did a bunch of scenes from the Buu saga to help TotallyNotMark’s review of said arc. There’s a compilation on their main channel.

[–] papalonian@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

People (like me) who don't know the context of this meme are not going to know what any of that means, lol

[–] sammytheman666@ttrpg.network 3 points 1 year ago

A special group of youtubers redid the entire manga series up to a point with voice actors and it's funny as fuck. For example, Mr. Popo is now a chtuluesk entity that is way stronger than anyone and doesn't give a fuck about anyone's safety. Try "Mr popo abridged" and enjoy

[–] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago

Dragonball Z was a long-running stereotypical anime about magic dudes beating each other up and then discovering even stronger magic dudes to beat up together. TeamFourStar chopped up the series to a fraction of its length in a loving parody called Dragonball Z Abridged. You don't have to know much about the original to enjoy the spoof.

This face belongs to Mister Popo, a sort of genie figure who trains the protagonists when they show up for help. This is one of his more helpful and kind interactions. He's extremely powerful. He's a good guy. But good is not nice. As an example, one of the subplots TFS severely cut down was an alien showing up to conquer Earth and accidentally hitting Mister Popo's mystical cloud temple situation instead. Popo takes one look at the wreckage and says "Clean that up." The magical alien invader says no. So Popo eats him. Subplot over, back to the heroes.

IMO splitting the party makes for very fun story telling but too many campaigns require players to stick together otherwise they would die.
