[up][up][up]Still NOT. Because in Abridged when Goku died with the "Special"special beam cannoned hole in his chest, Krillin said "We could get you a senzu." meaning they didn't have any. And why would they have any in the 1st place(prize)?

Senzu Beans got more and more ridiculous when it came to healing anyway

Not sure what you mean. Goku's injuries were pretty bad the first time he was healed by one. Hole in his shoulder big enough to fit his fist in, can't use either of his arms or legs and was bloody all over. Only injury I can think of worse than that is Yamcha's hole, and that's only between the two holes and discounted Goku's other injuries.

Senzu Beans weren't originally healing in the first place. They were just really, really good food that gave you much more energy than you'd expect a tiny little bean to. Goku ate them during his several days trying to get the Sacred Water from Koren. Don't remember when that got extrapolated to healing wounds.

I have a message from another time...

They healed you, and gave an extra boost of energy(only if you were in fatigue)

Well, either way, I'm still calling it a plothole, because after watching the episode again, Krillin specifically said "Here, have a senzu", again, don't know if he said something to that effect in the actual version, but he did in the abridged. edit: Not that it's a big deal either way.

i think it was simply cause they took too long to give it to him ? and Gero still had his fist in Yamcha's chest,so he didnt bleed out ... much tongue

Well, Goku died really quick back then, too quick for them to get a senzu bean, while Yamcha held off long enough for the bean to work.

...

Wait, does that mean Yamcha has more stamina than Goku ? That doesn't feel right...

Krillin in the Android Saga is actually stronger than Vegeta was in the Saiyan Saga.

And maybe the hole in Yamcha's chest didn't damage his esophagus.

Wasn't the reason Goku (in abridged) couldn't eat a senzu bean because his throat was filled with blood?

Maybe since Yamcha wasn't laying on his back like Goku did, blood didn't pool into his esophagus, allowing him to swallow a bean, or something?

It depends on if you eat the bean without hesitation or not.

That's one of my favorite videos.

I guess Cell just couldn't handle the bean.

If Abridged Gero's insectoid was destroyed during the Saiyan Saga battle then does that mean that Abridged Cell doesn't have Freeza or King Cold's genes?

Medigo02 Since: Apr, 2013
#4293: Jun 28th 2013 at 5:34:52 AM

Cell used a different insectoid than the androids anyway

Considering Cell even knew about Frieza and King Cold, he must have known about supersaiyans

The spy fly thing that gathered combat data (and genetic material for Cell) was apparently destroyed in the Saiyan attack, according to abridged 19.

Oh, that's weird.

Shouldn't matter, Cell comes from a different timeline.

I think the first time the beans demonstrated their healing potential was after Goku's first fight with Piccolo. Yachirobi brought Goku to the tower because Goku told him that he could be healed there.

I wonder which movies they'll cover. They've covered all of them so far, right?

Aren't we getting close to the time for this hilarious scene?

They should loop the clip in such a way that he's bouncing Goku like a paddleball, with his fist being the paddle, Goku's leg being the string, and Goku's balls being the, uh, ball.

Paddleball Z.
