** The sheer suddenness of the Android's victory. At first Gohan was holding his own against both Androids, even drawing blood... Then they exchanged a nod and they completely overwhelmed him. [[LetsGetDangerous They had been toying with him for most of the fight, but at that moment they realized he posed an actual threat and decided to fight with their full power]].
** As horrifying as it is in the anime, the manga is even ''worse''. [[HeroicSacrifice Gohan went in knowing he would die but that he'd at least take out one of the Androids to allow Trunks an easier time with the other]], and he is indeed strong enough to overpower 17... Who then [[WhamLine drops the horrific revelation he and his sister had only ever shown him half his true strength]]. [[OhCrap Gohan just has enough time to realize what that means]] before 17 starts fighting at ''full'' power.

** Minor though it may be, Kid Buu FALLING ASLEEP in front of Goku is oddly disarming and chilling. Though one could see it as kinda funny? It goes to show how little Buu actually thinks of his opponents that he can just casually take a nap before attempting to kill them. Then Goku makes the mistake of waking him up...

** You know it's that bad when Yamu is the one who forces Spopovich to end his brutality on Videl. This is the same guy who's enslaved by Babidi, one who must have traces of evil in them, and yet viewing Videl's torture made Yamu feel enough humanity in him to feel genuine sadness.

* Early in the Buu saga, we see the fight between Videl and Spopovich. Long story short, this entire episode, if you remove the fantasy elements, is a wrestler ''pounding a young girl in a tournament, and absolutely no one is coming to help her!!''. There's a shot of Spopovich ''stepping on her head, and all Videl can do is cry out in pain!!'' She's lucky Gohan defied his father and flew in to save her, which, brings up a whole 'nother issue! Even Goku is disgusted with this guy (Spopovich), and went on his way to mutter "I don't like him" and "there's something wrong with that guy" more than once. Still, he didn't intervene, but it was more of a matter of time: if Gohan didn't do it first, Goku would have.

** How about when he tears Tien's left arm '''CLEAN OFF'''? The scream thrown in great pain was more than adequate and Vegeta laughed about how fragile humans are.

* Aside from being blown up or vaporized by energy blasts, Creator/AkiraToriyama seems to like large chest wounds as indicators of fatal[=/=] near-fatal injuries. Happens to Goku (literally in the second episode), Vegeta, Piccolo, Yamcha, and Future Trunks at different points, among others. During Buu's infamous Human Extinction attack, the ''ENTIRE POPULATION OF EARTH'' save a handful, and gets a terminal case of hole-through-torso, including (although not shown on screen) all the kids.
