** Cell's unsubtle rape allusions regarding absorption become far more blatant and nauseating in this episode, with him openly gloating how 18 is "asking to be absorbed" with her outfit. The [[IncrediblyLamePun climax]] of this is his declaration that he's been so close for so long and now he's "coming".

* King Kai has no problem with the fact that Dende left Goku on Namek with Freeza. Remember, in the original story, King Kai wanted everyone but Freeza evacuated to Earth until Goku demanded that he stay and finish his fight. The kid left Goku there. Granted he likely doesn't know who Goku is of course, especially his relation to Gohan, but the implication that Dende has no qualms about this is a bit chilling still...
* Goku's demeanor during the course of his final battle with Freeza is about as unnerving as he can get. He's generally been the sweet, oafish dumbass who can't learn from his mistakes because he's just so damn-near indestructible that he barely realizes he's made them... but after Krillin dies and he turns Super Saiyan, it's clear something is wrong. His determined but cheery smiles are replaced by a stone-faced gaze that looks like one part laser-focused furious scowl, and one part ThousandYardStare.

** The Creator Commentary actually makes it worse as their canon for the show describes how Cell drinks his victims — [[HollywoodAcid he injects them with a highly corrosive acid that enters the bloodstream and dissolves the insides of a person]], allowing Cell to drink them like a Fly would with their prey using their own stomach acid; but seeing how the individual who's being dissolved and sucked up by Cell is able to keep screaming until they are completely absorbed, it's implied that the acid leaves them ''[[CruelAndUnusualDeath conscious]]'' for the entire duration.

** Not helped by how Broly beforehand had been a soft-spoken {{Adorkable}} guy but as Vegeta keeps not just pressing his BerserkButton but smashing it with as much force as humanly possible, all the while Broly is getting more agitated until he snaps into the AxCrazy monster he's known as. The change is incredibly jarring.
