Tv Tropes Dragon Ball Z Abridged Funny
The Dragon Ball series is one of the most popular anime in the history of the medium. This anime is seen as the father of the shonen genre in fact. However, there is one parody of this series that is just as popular as it. That parody version is called Dragon Ball Z: Abridged, most likely the most popular abridged series around.
This parody on the classicDragon Ballseries definitely has tons of characters to implement and yes, they do it perfectly. With so many characters it's hard to choose who are the funniest but this list will be trying to list the top ten.
10 TIEN
Tien trained under the rival to Master Roshi, the Crane Hermit and became a very close friend to the Z-Fighters. Tien is played as the straight man in the series and more or less acts just as he would in the usualDragon Ball Zseries when reacting to most situations in the series.
This is one of the things that makes Tien so damn funny. Tien plays everything straight and definitely gets fed up with the games from characters that are goofier and still stronger than him. Look at the famous Shin Kikoho scene against Cell for the climax of these growing emotions.
9 GOKU
Goku is, of course, the main character of theDragon Ball Z: Abridgedseries. He may always try to do what's right and be the strongest amongst the Z-Fighters thanks to his training, pure heart, and his Saiyan origins but he's definitely lacking the brainpower. This is one of the main parts of Goku's humor and one of the reasonsDragon Ball Z: Abridgedfans love him so much.
Goku is the quintessential idiot of any comedic act and plays the role perfectly. From "Are you a Yoshi" to "Muffin Button" it's almost like his charm has no end in the series.
8 VEGETA
Vegeta is the Prince of All Saiyans and easily one of the most hilarious members of theDragon Ball Z: Abridgedcast. In this series instead of his obsession with being the best being played as something series, it's more played as a gag. That's not even to mention his crazy obsession with being the center of attention.
His "I am the hype" scene is the ultimate look at this gag in action and one that many fans point at when it comes to The Prince of All Saiyan's greatest scenes in the entire Abridged series.
7 FRIEZA
Frieza is a tyrant that's made his way around the galaxy. He's played as a flamboyant man-child that thinks that the universe only belongs to him due to his upbringing with his very powerful father. One of the best things that comes from this character in this new telling of theDragon Ballseries comes from the fact that he's been around the galaxy so much.
A few jokes have to do with Frieza naming off random planets he's been to while talking to people that have no clue what the heck he's talking about. This results in some of the best scenes in the series.
6 CELL
Cell is the pompous guy that puts himself above everyone else in the world. This is exactly what he was in the originalDragon Ballseries but theDragon Ball Z: Abridgedcrew takes that personality trait and runs even further with it. Cell is a character that goes through many personalities throughout his multiple forms with his perfect form being the funniest of them all.
One of his best lines is definitely the famous, "Like a soon to be broken man once said: 'You're either perfect, or you're not me"
5 MR. POPO
Mr. Popo is a completely off the rails character and one of the most far removed from his originalDragon Ballincarnation. Mr. Popo may have been a gentle and kindhearted being in the originalDragon Ball but inDragon Ball Z: Abridgedhe is a crazy sadistic genie that loves messing with the Z-Warriors in ways that do nothing but make their lives even harder than they need to be.
This character literally shows up at times you'd never expect and drops some hilarious one-liners. Just go by the pecking order and beware his laugh and you'll love him.
4 BULMA
Bulma is a genius inventor in theDragon Ball Z series that of course is amplified big time in theDragon Ball Z: Abridgedseries. While she is a genius and the smartest of all the cast she is definitely a bit arrogant and sometimes immature along with it.
This is one of the best traits that go into her jokes and her moments with Vegeta are absolutely hilarious.
3 FUTURE TRUNKS
Future Trunks is the son of Vegeta of Bulma from a destroyed future. He is a skilled fighter that comes to the past trying to change that future from ever happening. In this version of the series, he is many times mistaken as a girl for being a pretty boy with a $30 haircut.
This version of Trunks much like his original is very charming and has the jokes to go with it. He's mostly the badass adorably naive member of the cast.
2 PICCOLO
Piccolo can be categorized as the wannabe badass of theDragon Ball Z: Abridgedcast of characters. He is the son of a demon king and used to be one of Goku's main enemies. In this series, he is played as a relatively straight character much like Tien but with a lot more emphasis on constantly trying to be cool.
This all begins during the Namek Saga where Piccolo gains a huge powerup after fusing with Nail. Too bad whenever he fuses with someone they end up being another voice that's constantly inside his head.
1 MR. SATAN
Mr. Satan is a celebrity by luck. He is the champion of the Tenkaichi Budokai due to the Z-Fighters being no-shows because of the androids and now he's attempting to take on Cell for mankind.
He's literally the same character as he is inDragon Ballbut with his stupidity and lies taken to the next level. He literally makes the Cell Saga that much better in this iteration.
