Great episode. Loved the running gag about the cardinal city naming.

Is it really fair to say this show has better writing than what it's parodying? A weekly serialization that has proven itself time and time again to have an internal consistency most people seem to completely overlook? Toriyama wrote a better series than these guys, but these guys do a fantastic job of enhancing what he already put out there 25+ years ago.
You know the best part is how neatly the left behind clothes are placed
Like the couple sitting at the table. Either Cell sucked them both dry in a fraction of a second, or he placed the clothes back on the chairs because he just likes to spend his time that way
I like to pretend its the second case
Hilarious as usual. I wonder how many people are going to be bitching in the You Tube comments about that abortion joke.
I wish people would stop complaining about the video player; they already know about that and have said so, going on about it isn't going to help them fix it faster.
Though, may perception could be influenced by me being lucky enough to have many problems with it. The worst I've got is skipping a few seconds or freezing for a few seconds, and it always synced back up fine so it wasn't much of a bother.
It just occurred to me: if time travel worked like it did in almost every other fiction I've watched, Krillin blowing up Cell in Gero's lab would've ended the Cell saga.
Which would've prevented Trunks from being born, preventing him from going back in time to warn the Z-Fighters about the Androids, preventing them from finding Gero and preventing Krillin from destroying Cell in the first place...

Nooot really. That only works in a fairly specific form of time travel
There's three main versions of time travel:
- Single, static timeline. Time travel is predestined, stable time loops are the order of the day
- Single, malleable timeline. The two variants here:
- Changes to the past that screw with the time traveller's future self mess with them (the Back To The Future version)
- Changes to the past don't affect the time traveller, but they go home to a world they don't know (the A Sound Of Thunder version)
- Multiverse theory
2-1 is the only version that'd allow killing fetus Cell to kill the one they're fighting
The Cell running around who is the Big Bad of the current arc is from a timeline where an alternate Future Trunks deactivated the Androids with the remote and didn't get any of the powerups the Future Trunks we meet in the story did, so Cell killed him and took the time machine and came to the timeline Dragon Ball Z takes place in.

As happy as I am that the new episode is up, I really hate watching it on Team Four Star's website, the video tends to lag a bit and skip a few seconds. I always end up laughing heaps when I watch it on Youtube though.
