Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie. Check out my art if you notice.Goku saying no-one was on par with him inmthe afterlife isn't trying to be an Exact Words situation to allow some super awesome off-screen guys for him to fuse with that he juuuuust wasn't the same strength as. It ties into the rest of the arc, where the strength of these characters had reached a level that no-one else possessed.
And how strong Paikuhan is is a bit ???? because the anime doesn't portray the differences between forms very well, anime Goku is on par with Paikuhan is base, Super Saiyan and Super Kaio-ken.
I wonder if the constant Take That! to Vegeta in part 2 are to set up Vegeta's actions against Perfect Cell in part 3 being less about Trunks got killed and more him trying to make up the constant slights to his ego.
Guess we'll prolly know Friday.
I'm disappointed that they completely cut out the vast majority of the actual fight between Gohan and Cell. They could've at least implied it happened off-screen via SFX while showcasing some of the observers' reactions.
@Saiga
: The thing is, jinzouningen (人造人間) is a common term in real-life Japanese for both robots and cyborgs. Toriyama didn't invent the latter sense of the word.

Fiat iustitia, et pereat mundus.10 minutes for beam struggle, 10 minutes for the wishes and everyone going home and 10 minutes from Trunks dealing with the timeline androids.
Sounds good. Now when Bojack?
Uni catThey said the Future Trunks stuff was going to be a separate episode.
I don't mind it when they cut short one-sided battle as much as when they cut short fights where the two combatants are fairly evenly matched. I get the feeling the SSJ2 Gohan vs Super Perfect Cell is going to get cut down a lot, and I don't recall it being terribly long in the actual show either.
Have they started casting for the Buu Saga yet? That would be a sure sign that they're going through with it.

Really? So Cell only took a few blows in less than a minute, realized that Gohan is too much far more powerful than he expected for his comfort zone and immediately opted for the planet-busting Kamehameha?
I'm oping that this is the real start of Vegeta's semi-Face–Heel Turn. I've been waiting for this almost as much as I was waiting to see how they'd portray Gohan's transformation. Vegeta going from "I don't listen to bastards" to jumping at Super Perfect Cell.
The way things are going though, I suspect it's going to be more about Vegeta's ego than Trunks. Which would kind of suck given how they wrote Goku's Heel Realization here. Vegeta should have a similar wake-up call.

Super Saiyan 2 Gohan and Super Perfect Cell never fought. At all. Ever. This is the order of events:
Trunks gets blasted
Vegeta attacks Cell
Cell knocks Vegeta out and fires a blast at him
Gohan takes the blast for Vegeta, breaking his arm
Gohan gives up and Cell charges a Kamehameha to finish everyone off
Goku gives Gohan a pep talk and Gohan decides to fire his own Kamehameha to try and hold off Cell's Kamehameha
Aside from the beam struggle, Super Saiyan 2 Gohan and Super Perfect Cell never fight each other.
Amusingly he actually kicked him in the head, not the gut.

I deeply regret selling my complete collection of the manga, especially since I've rekindled my love for Dragon Ball in the last few months.
At least I still kept my copy of Sandland, Toriyama's true magnum opus.
Does Kai have the original music or the Falconer soundtrack?

I was hoping they would use the panel from the manga that showed the Cell Jr's organs and colored it to match.
