It’s definitely awesome but in my opinion the English version just has way more impact on the viewer especially with the Bruce faulconer music

As the original of course this is great, but in my preference, i very much enjoy DBZ kai's version of this scene. Gohan's VA Colleen Clinkenbeard lets out that huge, anguished roar (with the echoed effect) and they added that heat glimmer to gohan when he explodes...

Light of hope

I still can't believe the Funimation cut this song out. It was the best song! Great reaction though. <3

LETSSS GGGOOOOOOO

Baris is spoiling us this week! Great reaction videos bro!

London Celt

Dude this is awesome🏆

I'm so fucking pumped for 185 and 186

Marcelo dos Santos

The song makes all the difference, idk why the American version didn’t keep spirit vs spirit for that, it’s so good

Stephen Sturges

I met Bruce faulconer this year and he told me he wanted to keep this scene as quiet as possible but he was given instruction to Play music 95% of the time because they thought American audiences woukd get bored

Jon

BARIS I LOVE YOU YOU DESERVE ALL THE SUBS IN THE WORLD

Stephen Sturges

yeah in this case I wish they did. But you can't hate on it. He's given us some badass themes throughout the series

Mitsuru Miyata

She should listen to the TFS version in English too.

Tmirror23

This is so cool because in my head I was hoping you would show her this version too. I love this version a little more. I don't fault funimation all that much because they were adding in their own dialog the whole time up to this point. The only other japanese to english comparison scene I think would be cool to show is the different "I am" speeches from super saiyan goku to frieza

Rekway

Thank you for this! I agree that this is one scene in which I prefer the Japanese dub. NOT true for the next episode though! Gohan Fights Frieza theme is a top-3 in all of the English dub and it slaps in 185... NEXT TIME ON DRAGON BALL Z!

Mightybeast

I think i cought something in my eye, lol

Jon

naa i hate that one dunno why i think the female voice fits it better

Seikon

So nice that you showed it her too😍

Cipherclaus715

This song is the most epic scene in dbz for me, glad you reacted to it 👍👍👍

Brandon

This is great! Glad you were able to show her the OG for comparison. In addition to the points you made about the effective “silence”, I also love that you can hear the Great Ape sound effect layered over Gohan’s scream. Really shows he’s bringing out the beastly saiyan within.

Ellis Gandy

OK dude, you're awesome LOL I figured you'd show Madison this off screen, but to know you definitely went through with it AND shared that with us is icing on the cake of an already great reaction. Yeah I definitely agree, I saw this on Comic-con bought VHS back in mid 90's, well before DBZ was airing in the States. The Japanese are just economical with everything: from emotions and drama to interior design. Less is more. (also that song's translation begins talking about a messiah, in reference to Gohan being a savior type) Peace from Tokyo!

QuirklessEsty

Geez, Masako Nozawa has the craziest screams! She’s a freaking legend 🙌🏼

Link

I prefer to watch the transformations and ultimate attacks in Japanese. But prefer english overrall. Legendary shit! Can't wait for the next episode

NOMMY

Awesome!!! That’s one of the main flaws with the American version— the music just NEVER stops. It’s always playing lol

Mattie

wow... just wow.....Gohan didn't even have a single thought.. not one word... he just exploded. Such a powerful moment shown in an entirely different way. Ty guys yet again! <3

Leon Nolan

I like the Great Ape roar from the JP version but the music from the English one.

Stan Ez

Show her the Dragon ball abridged version, such a beautiful song

Moker_B

Even though I'm team Faulconer productions and dub, the OG absolutely nailed this scene, no comparison <3

Growing up in Mexico, we got two weekly episodes. During the time dragon ball z was airing, 8:00 pm to 9:00 pm. You wouldn’t see any kids on the streets playing. We were all glued to the tv…. When the show came to an end…. All the kids at my school, felt like part of our childhoods also ended….. I think I got something on me eye…..

Chillguy

Incredible thanks for this man, cool that you went the extra distance and showed not just the JP but that Latino one as well, very nice of you. The next few episodes are gonna be crazy. I think this pay off was probably the best the show has. Goku going ssj is also epic but the build up to this really puts it at the top imo.

Karan Gill

I always preferred the Faulconer version until recently... theyre both amazing in their own way but the Japanese version really highlights Gohan's rage more and the song is beautiful feels like a truly triumphant moment that this 11 year old boy is the first to reach Super Saiyan 2

Littlepip

The difference in song is even more interesting because this song was specifically created for this scene and this scene alone. It is known as "Unmei no Hi - Tamashii vs Tamashii" or The Fateful Day: Soul vs Soul. The song's lyrics also reinforce this by speaking of a righteous soul seething hotter and going beyond it's limits to destroy the evil spirit. One of my favorite lyrics says "I won't accept an Earth devoid of life."

LX

One of my favorite parts in all of Dbz is when Gohan says the F eel it slipping line. The music is also much better in the American because its rage and complexity. Imo the only thing this version has going for it was some of the silence which was cool I wish they would have blended them

Jive

Wow amazing you showed her this version, the Japanese version of dbz has more "weight" behind it. Alot of context is missing in the funi/ocean dub. Kai corrected some of that but sounds off without faulconers music in it. Hope you guys react to more Japanese bits in the future!

Ogre328

I'm not sure which 16 speech I like better, but I do appreciate the lack of music during his speech here. I like 16s theme in the Faulconer track, but the lack of music here gives such weight to the scene.

Luke8694

I love both versions but it definitely feels like the Japanese was just a bit better. The silence just before the scream was insane and I love the oozaru mixed in as well, like that power has always been there just waiting for him to claim it.

Alex Hemade

I LOVE that you guys did this for us, THANK YOU!!!

Tyrone Ross

I'm glad she saw this, it's really a mature show in the original I like the swearing lol
