I'm surprised the VEGETA forum doesn't have an abridged thread yet.

The Cell Sagae in DBZA is gonna have to top two specific bits from the Frieza saga for me first, because I have yet to not laugh at them even after several viewings. Namely, Frieza's line while being hit by the spirit bomb, and his response to Goku talking about a "pie level".

Abridged stuff is usually either unnecessarily hateful to the source material and just making GBS threads on it because they think it's bad or really low quality because it's a bunch of kids dubbing their improv over footage with windows movie maker DBZA is basically the only abridged thing that's not either of those and that's kind of why people know it at all I think the YGO one came first though and they built off its format and outgrew it so that one might be okay

Pokémon 'bridged is generally pretty good. Its humor stems from absurdity and deviations from the source material: Ash is a bit of an idiot with an abusive family; Misty wants to be a Fire trainer who can act kinda crazy sometimes; and Brock takes Breeding to a point far beyond creepy, and can lactate somehow. It has fairly frequent cameos from the Team Four Star guys, if that's your thing. The voice acting is usually very good, beyond the first couple episodes, where there was just one guy running the show. Nowacking's Misty and Jesse are absolutely spot on, for example. By the way, Krillen's the best.

It really shows going back to the earlier episodes, and I'd reccomend starting that one at Battle City if you were just getting into it now. Also, possibly controversial opinion, the DBZA voice cast is the best DBZ dub and I'd pay money for a full serious English dub from that cast.

Gantz Abridged (by hbi2k aka Naiiiiiiiiiiil on DBZA) is the only other one I really rate. It's a bit clunky nowadays and the sound quality, frankly, sucks, but still funny as hell in places.

Their one episode of Attack on Titan Abridged was pretty good, too bad it discontinued. I guess because of copyright stuff? I'm not sure Takahata even told one of second episode's jokes, it was pretty good

Speaking of their other projects, Hellsing Abridged is amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgnIjJexut4 Or as Taka likes to refer to it as "My personal masturbation series" EDIT: For the record though, this would be their R-18 series if DBZ is PG. There is a lot of crossing the line 1000 times. Onmi fucked around with this message at 14:21 on Aug 19, 2015 |

So, on the previous subject of good Abridged Series... There's Team.EXE who are an upcoming group abridging the Mega Man Battle Network anime (or as it's better known as NT Warrior). They only have four episodes at the moment with a fifth in the works. I really want these guys to succeed, they're trying so hard and I like that. And then there's JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: The Abridged Series done by Antfish. Originally having covered the entirety of the old OVA (okay, it was really two OVAs that get grouped together), Antfish has decided to also abridge the new anime that came out recently, although episodes have been slow to come out. Antfish is a massive JoJo fan and it shows. You'll really only get the most out of it if you've actually READ JoJo

DBZ abridged is pretty sweet, but I've always been more fond of Alternate Reality Dragonball Z. Nothing beats getting parenting advise from Vegeta.

It's possible the update could be further delayed, thanks to Kaboom Dragoon. He linked me to the DBZA playlist, and I've about 49 episodes to catch up on. And I'm playing the Pre-Sequel tonight. Yapping Eevee bought it for me, so that's his fault.

On the subject of abridged series, I really like Thornbrain's Sgt. Frog Abridged. They put a lot of work into video editing and they manage to be funny without resorting to the ton of references that a lot of other abridged series do.
