I never understood why Ocean Cell was an opera singer.

My favorite Cell moment is him professing his undying love for cornbread.

That being said, there was the time Cell became Mr. Satan.

Hercule hates tricks? But from what Videl told us, he seems to love them!


Take some news up your ass, mother fuckers!

Damn shame the Saiyans are playing one of the Soul Caliburs I don't like. In better news, episode 44 around the corner, probably within a week. Episode 45 or some special premiering around Halloween.

Also, it didn't take me long to start crushing on 18's voice actress.

Welp. I'll never sleep again.

Gotta ask - I never watched the original DBZ when I was younger - was Cell's rampage that disturbing in the original series?

Aside from the obvious taste in music, I think it was. Might be worse in this though.

He did this to entire cities worth of people. There is even a scene straight up from a horror movie with two young girls running for their lives while Cell doing a Menacing Stroll after them.

It's also interesting to note that they are using Cell's dub theme here. They used only original Japanese music in the old seasons I believe but here they are using what sounds like an arrangement of Imperfect Cell's theme.

Cell is entertaining.

I didn't know Tien had a deathwish.

I wonder what they would have done if Toriyama didn't reveal that info on the Androids this year.

Good taste in music though.

Duran Duran and the Buggles are some of my favorites

They're not my favorites but appreciation for 80s Pop is always a sign of a good person or character.

Yeah, they did that back when they first hinted at him in the episode where Kami and Piccolo fused, too.

I'm glad: Bruce Faulconer's Cell motifs are awesome.

Edit: Just saw the episode. Wow, TFS are getting to be experts at playing how terrifying characters are for laughs, in a way that somehow makes them even more terrifying.

Well...that was a pretty disturbing ending, like it was funny but it was an awkward kind of funny.

I have to give props to the writing. Holy hell is Cell intimidating.

[up]Quite often, this parody series has way better writing than the original.

This makes me wonder how I ever got to be a fan of the original in the first place, but then I remember that I am really not any more.

It's... probably for the best that you're not watching this at lunch.

I have a message from another time...
