Is it just me or did they use their own drawings for most of the characters at the end? Because they all looked kind of off.

They totally did. I mean, I assume in the real thing Goku actually blows up Wheelo with the Spirit Bomb.

Yes, that's exactly what they did because they changed the ending.

That was really good. Dr. Wheelo just may be my favorite character of theirs.

Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!

Brain Wheelo is great.

I'm glad it all worked out, sort of....

I'm kind of surprised they didn't lampshade Dr. Kochin's plan on obtaining a body for Dr. Wheelo. After all, sending fighters than can freeze and electrocute the potential body seems rather counter intuitive. Or I may have missed the joke behind all the other lampshades.

Still, that was enjoyable. Though, I'm more looking forward to the breakdown video. Someone's got a lot of explaining to do on that ending bit.

I bet Masako animated that.

Call it a hunch.

I'm happy that robot brain guy didn't die. I liked him.

Bulma in chains tho.

Kid me didn't think anything of Bulma in chains. Older me now sees a...different, perspective to it.

That was hilarious. Every word out of Dr. Kochin's mouth is great, and I love how they completely changed the ending (Even if the new art looks a little off).

The moment Gohan worded his wish, I knew it would be disturbing. Loved this movie!

It was alright. I generally like the episodes better than the movies, so this is about par for the course

I think this is the first time they've straight up changed the events of the original content.

Which is part of why I didn't really like it as much as others. Not only was it not all that "abridged", but they changed the arc of the source material as well.

Is there any major threat that Goku has actually defeated without reverting to the smart spirit bomb?

It was still pretty abridged; it was half as long as the original.

[up][up]Well, there's Cell, who got pulverised by Gohan's Kamehameha instead. There's Frieza, who only seemed mildly annoyed at the Spirit Bomb, and bisected himself in the end. There's Raditz tasting the Special Beam Canon (yes, he counts).

Outside of those, not much.

I mean seriously, he's like the little bastard who joins your game and then chooses the cheese character so he always wins.

If you don't count the movies, Buu is the only one the Spirit Bomb actually killed.
