And it is so much better. They really got all the characters down and then some. The references to the original dragon ball, the emotion, the nuance, it's all there. I can't imagine anyone being able to go back

I liked it better than then official release (heh, release). Cell's rendition of "My Way" was spot-on.

TFS is just full of talentless hacks who leech off another company's IP to be relevant. If I wanted to watch a legitimate, serious version of DBZ, I'd watch the original. Abridged just lost sight of what it was supposed to be; there was no reason for it to even attempt one-upping the original.

No, it did not. It was basically an attempt to be a legitimate dub with comedic overtones. Still too goofy to feel legitimate, but still too serious to work as a parody. Didn't even feel like it knew what it wanted to be.

Abridged Cell is so awesome that an officially licensed Dragon Ball game based their version of Cell off of him basically

I have been watching Super and it seems like abridged. Vegeta being annoyed with Goku while thinking they are best friends .Goku not being someone who was just a little naive and slow.. but someone who has a legit mental issue. Playing up Krillin uselessness :(.

Uh, you do realize they didn't make money off of it right? It's not like they were trying to profit. They did it because they wanted to.

They do make money off of views and merchandise. They even stopped calling it a "nonprofit fanbased parody".

The whole reason they decided not to keep going and do the buu saga is because it took too much work and too much time for something they can't make a living off of

Except they have decided to do the Boo arc. You don't know anything, do you? DBZ Abridged may not be enough for them to make a living, but they still make some money off it and it's the only way for them to be relevant in any capacity. Clearly they can't get noteworthy jobs on their own if they're always falling back on these parodies. They've even gotten some official voice acting jobs due to Abridged; this is more than a hobby for them.

I suspect canon Goku has had mental issues for a while. That blow to the head as a baby didn't do him any favours. Then he had the heart virus, lack of oxygenated blood probably caused more damage. Plus generally being hit in the head is not good for you. I am surprised he is as together as he is.

I'm fine with leaving it at cell saga, I don't think even they could make buu saga good.

And even for those that just want straight up comedy, they still do that for the movies which are non canon anyway.
