Lauren Reacts! DragonBall Z Abridged episodes 27 & 28-TeamFourStar *The Power of Being RIDICULOUS* 

I probably wouldn't have if I hadn't seen it fairly recently. My memory is often terrible for the little things like that. So thank the folks who insisted I watch these more regularly 😉

Dbza is great at callbacks, people can sometimes be bad at noticing them. Especially a lot of my favorite reactors lol.

True, she is legit the ONLY reactor out of the 20 I've watched over the years who caught that callback

I don’t think so

Know what?

​@ChicagoReacts It's coming up in the next couple episodes.

​@@ChicagoReactsnoooothing, nothing important at all... Don't worry about it....

She will love it once she gets there

Spot on, it's Final Fantasy in origin.

I thought it was also a translation thing, with white and black mage being literal translations of the Japanese words

@@tehrickles1447 It’s both. There was a rising popularity with D&D tabletop games in Japan at the time (80s). Some of the Japanese translated D&D tabletop games just phonetically translated the word “cleric” into japanese. Since many japanese didn’t realize that the word cleric was just a regular word, people making certain video games assumed it was a name created for the D&D game and was hesitant to use it in their own games (even in the original Japanese).

Omg that's nuts. And I find myself very glad I'm watching the abridged version

@@ChicagoReacts Watching abridged makes seeing the original both more hilarious, and sadly more disappointing in ways. Remembering that the hype for the show was unprecedented at it's time helps make the drawn-out and filler-prone stretches of the show easier to understand. It has it's brilliant moments, and abridged does a great job of both respecting the actual content, while also having a ton of fun with it. I think many people find the abridged to be superior due to it's ability to use so much of the source material and the time it's development afforded them to not repeat mistakes of the original authors.

To my understanding, it was the longest fight in animation history for decades. Until somewhat recently, when One Piece supposedly surpassed it.

Oh, huh. Alrighty then. I guess I need to reformulate my theories

Really makes me question how the Ginyu Force got there.

@@tehrickles1447 training purposes

@@tehrickles1447 ah well you see they were able to get there using the ultimate power of the universe...filler

@@silentassason same issue arises in the Pikon arc, since it makes no sense about the evil souls raising hell and help being needed, as souls without their body are literally helpless vs the celestial attendants. Even those nerdy looking assistants could manhandle Cell or Freiza without issue because un-embodied souls are literally powerless.

FFXI Promathia flashbacks....

I'm sure there are thousands of fics out there where it's not out of context at all

It’s because the counting was like 12 or 13 episodes prior. Lot of funny jokes and plot developments between then and well I wouldn’t say now because this came out years ago.

@@bradcarver8127 yeah that’s true lol and It just keeps getting better from here imo

Dammit George Takei!

Great comment 😂

No, it's because he's a psychic type and they didn't have dark or bug moves

@@Wolf_3125 by that logic, im assuming Blue or Zarbon can kill Shenron or Porunga.

@@focuspugilist673 It's a joke

@@Wolf_3125 i know. i made one too.

@@focuspugilist673 wait, what types are Blue and Zarbon and why?

Shame it dosent work like that on us. Mostly leads to serial killers

​@QuackingIsPainIHateStaleBread well we aren't programed to take over the planet as babies so when we do get dropped that's when the programing comes in. Or something like that I dunno 🤷

​@@QuackingIsPainIHateStaleBreadIt does though. Head injuries can cause amnesia. Exactly what happened to Goku.

Being dropped on his head made him forget he was meant to destroy the world and that he was a sayian. The morals came from the people who raised him and he interacted with.

​@@henfarasubtitrare9764imagine if instead of landing on grandpa gohan's house he landed on the red ribbon base💀or with pilaf lol

Psychic damage is a real thing

It's called Psychological Warfare. Unfortunately, it only works if the target _understands what you're saying._

Rez is basically a shorthand for resurrection.

It's also really shocking and a little offensive, lol. Whenever I step on a Lego or an earring or just something that should not be there I kind of have the same wtf how dare reaction Frieza did

@@ChicagoReacts That's true too! Imagine being the scariest thing in the universe and some guy you met five minutes ago just bites you. I'd be super offended.

Rez is short for resurrection. Their healer died. They need to revive him.

@@StCerberusEngel I knew it was something like that. Thankfully my coffee kicked in about a half hour after I wrote the comment. X3

Ooh it's been forever since I've been to the wormhole! I don't get over that way super often.

Usually it's White mage for healing magic, Black mage for elemental/damage dealing magic, Red mage for a mix of both at a lesser level, Blue mage for attacks learnt from watching enemies, and Summoner to summon creatures with various effects. Other than that there has been oddities like the Time Mage for buffs and weird effects, or even in FF5 the Geomancer whose attacks will vary depending on the environment.

@@seriouslydon_t God I love those games
