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

There are worms

Then players that split up

[–] blackbelt352@ttrpg.network 2 points 11 months 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

[–] epicanis@akkoma.dogphilosophy.net 22 points 11 months ago

@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

[–] sammytheman666@ttrpg.network 8 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I dont know, the redneck in episode 1 sold me

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Personally for me it was the line:

"Look Vegeta, a pokemon."

Frickin broke me lol

[–] c0mbatbag3l@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

spits blood

"RENEGADE FOR LIFE!"

[–] mindbleach@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

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

"Are you as disappointed as I am?"

[–] Hexagon@feddit.it 5 points 11 months 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 11 months ago (1 children)

Care to elaborate ? Im curious

[–] Hexagon@feddit.it 4 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

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

[–] sickday@kbin.social 10 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] Currens_felis@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 months ago

[–] Kichae@lemmy.ca 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] blackbelt352@ttrpg.network 11 points 11 months ago

He laughed when I said 5.

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

YOU MUST CONSTRUCT ADDITIONAL PYLONS!

"Got your zerg right here, hehehe."

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

I even heard the voice reading this.

[–] ProtonEvoker@lemmy.world 9 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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 11 months 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 11 months 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 11 months 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.
