Yeah, even in the show his reaction is basically the same as it was here.

He didn't invite the Z-warriors, the rest of them just decided to show up.

For moral support.

And for moral supper.

He told anyone to come and try if they'd like, but he was only really expecting a few people, and only really cared about Goku.

Such a grand promotion of an event and the majority of people who showed up never even intended to fight.

In fairness, the majority of people who show up to the Tenkaichi Budokai never intended to compete either. They're called "audience".

Hmm, truth.

It's a good thing the camera guy came, now there's no need for audience.

Even though they can't really watch the fight anyway.

Can I just say how much I like the announcer guy from the World Martial Arts Tournament? That guy's been around since before Tien. He's watched Goku grow up and he's NOT a Satan worshiper, because he knows who the REAL hero is.

So he's a good Christian?

I can get behind the notion that the announcer for the Tenkaichi Budoukai is amazing. He's easily my favorite side character. Despite only appearing in a handful of episodes/chapters, every appearance is usually great. Whether its adding even more hype and energy to the fights, his acknowledgement of Goku during the 25th, or the fact that the guy has bigger balls than everyone else in the cast combined (seriously, at the 23rd, Piccolo obliterated the entire surface of Papaya Island, killing almost everyone there, and the announcer kept doing this job); he's just always awesome. I just wish he had a name.

Yeah. This dude has earned an actual name now that you bring it up.

I mean, even Bulma's mom has a name now doesn't she?

I say we start a petition:

Name the Budokai announcer and Frieza's race!

Clearly, he doesn't need a name, as it doesn't impede his role or how endearing he is

His name actually is "Announcer".

...So, why didn't Cell kidnap the Budokai announcer?

I mean. That feels like something he should have done.

If Buu was doing a Buu games, he totally would have absorbed the announcer and then split off part of himself just to do the voice and impersonation.

Then the joke that is Mr Satan wouldn't have worked since the announcer knew that the shit going on was real.

The Tenkaichi Budokai announcer is legitimately my favorite tertiary character in the franchise, bar none.
