I can hear the last sound as someone saying some derivative of "fuck".

I assumed the joke of using that part of the song was that it sounded like "Fuck!" I had been meaning to bring it up before, actually.

[up][up]If that's it, they're probably saying "Sparking!" Japanese DBZ loves that word, for some reason.

Looking at the lyrics, it is indeed "sparking"

It is indeed Sparking.

Fun fact: in Japan, the Budokai Tenkaichi games were originally named DBZ Sparking, for that reason. The west renamed them, probably because it would make little sense to a Western audience, and also to get name recognition with people who played the Budokai games.

I have a message from another time...

And not just that, instead of just being called games 1, 2, and 3, they're Sparking, Sparking NEO, and Sparking METEOR. Their names are much better than ours.

Though we now know what they were saying, did it sound like "Fuck!" to anyone else?

Unless FLOW's singing the song, I only ever hear "Wachoo".

So, it looks like Kirran is going to be joining TFS full time now as well which is cool.

I kind of wonder if Taka is moving State-side?

Who has Kirran voiced?

And according to the cast info, the guy who does Nail also does Dabura, but they haven't done Dabura yet?

[up][up]Kirran actually hasn't done any voice acting, at least not yet. He does the Let's Plays with and I believe he also edits those videos as well. Though based on the GTA Stream, he was claiming that he may voice Majin Buu.

Last time I heard, Lani was voicing Goten. But then again, I also recently saw a really old podcast with TFS where they were sure Lani would be voicing Freeza (and doing a Linda Young impression). Things can change. They're not choosing people based on who can do the best FU Nimation VA impression anymore.

Well, then I hope Kirran voices Trunks.

Because Lirran was pretty funny.

We still have quite a few episodes and a couple of movies until Goten shows up IIRC.

The next episode is about Krillin and 18 I think.

More about Cell and Vegeta, but yeah.

God I cannot wait for 49. I've just been watching Kai, and Vegeta's dialogue and smack-talk to Cell is making me laugh already! And it's not supposed to be funny! How is TFS going to make it even better?

I'm really going to miss 16. I hope Abridged!Bulma departs from canon and somehow gives him a happy ending good end.

Honestly if anyone, I figured Masako would voice Goten.

That would be expected, since Masako also voices Son Family males. Masako is the British Masako.

It always sounded like SPARKING to me, but I cheated by already being aware of Japan's love of the word SPARKING in reference to Dragon Ball.

I'm surprised of everyone who got it wrong, I was the closest to getting it right.

Because I have a hard time understanding words sometimes.

It seems like whenever they release a new part of a game they're doing, the previous part of the same game gets uploaded on Youtube. Helpful patterns.

Why does he keep skipping the cutscenes?

I mean, I guess it's in character for Vegeta not to care about the story, but half the fun of Metal Gear is how over the top and goofy the story can get.

Maybe he thinks we'd rather see gameplay, but the truth is, there's only so much I can watch of Vegeta killing generic Mooks and acting like a huge dick about it. If the scenes are too long, then they can edit them like they do with regular gameplay - otherwise, it's starting to become a bore.
