[Dragon Ball] Although he’s often treated as weak, Tao Pai Pai was actually quite strong, wasn’t he?

Otaku Review Image

1: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)19:50Yeahx13

There are too many highlights in such a short appearance.

2: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)19:52Yeahx19

Goku was utterly defeated without being able to put up any fight, so he’s really strong.

3: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)19:53

First, the name is strong.

14: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:12

>>3Even though it has a name that sounds like breasts…

4: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)19:54Yeahx2

It was quite a shock when Goku became immobilized by the Kamehameha.

5: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)19:54Yeahx10

They were considered one of the top formidable enemies, despite being treated poorly as a resurrected monster.

6: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)19:57Yeahx4

The voice is good.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)19:58

I also like how the plea for mercy is effortlessly turned back on Goku.

8: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)19:59

Even though they were a strong enemy, the cyborg transformation is just too ugly.

9: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:00Yeahx12

>>8A response that also hits Frieza.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:16Yeahx3

>>9Unable to win, begging for mercy, ultimately dying, getting revenge, being eliminated, and then reappearing as a cyborg.
These two are ending up in quite similar fates, aren’t they?

10: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:03Yeahx6

It’s a bit off to treat a character as weak just because they are used as fodder to show the strength of the current characters, similar to how Frieza, who was so strong in the Saiyan Saga, was instantly defeated in the next Android Saga.

11: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:05Yeahx4

Those kinds of people are supremacist about fighting ability and love the strongest, so they call everyone else besides the strongest and those who compete with them weaklings…

12: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:05

I love it when you hit it with your tongue.

13: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:06

If you push randomly, you might unleash a strong combo.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:13Yeahx1

I was scared because the atmosphere changed when the uPA died normally.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:13Yeahx11

>>15It’s not Upah that died!

16: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:13

It’s the first enemy that Goku was completely defeated by.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:14Yeahx3

It feels like Toriyama’s works give us all the characteristics of a villain.
I also like the ending where he clumsily loses to Tianjin Rice due to being a cyborg.

19: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:15

When it comes to the man who made Mr. Satan who he is, he is quite a singular point.

20: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:15Yeahx5

It’s 너무 unreasonable to be told that someone will be killed instead of payment, and then if you refuse, you get killed.

22: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:18Yeahx3

If anything, General Blue, who gave Goku quite a hard time before, is this guy’s stepping stone.
It was such a shocking scene that in the movie, General Blue had almost the same death.

23: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:19Yeahx3

Characters who casually commit murder in this kind of atmosphere were a bit shocking.
Tianjin rice slowly increased the level of cruelty by breaking Yamcha’s bones.

32: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:23

>>23There was a different kind of fear in breaking Yamcha’s legs.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:19

It’s too scary that Blue was killed so easily.

25: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:19Yeahx3

It’s nice to jump onto the thrown pillar and move around…

26: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:20Yeahx3

It is also a scene that highlights the incompetence of the Red Commander, who discards the capable Blue General.

27: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:20

When I lost the game, there was a defeat movie, and it was quite memorable when Goku was turned to dust by Dodonpa.

28: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:20Yeahx2

I thought they were quite capable, but…

29: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:22

Since they are the brothers of a crane, the fact that they worked as salarymen for quite a long time is a gag setting that gets depicted here and there in DB.

30: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:22

Forgotten characters as rich as this by Toriyama-sensei.

31: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:22

I want to try catching up after throwing a stone pillar.

33: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:23

It’s not a gag character at all, but somehow it has a comedic vibe at key points.
I wonder why.

34: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:24

>>33The name is…

36: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:27Yeahx5

>>33No, they are definitely a gag character, but there are parts that are scary.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:28

>>33It seems like adding a slightly unique setting (like being a former salaryman or killing with just a tongue) to a serious strong character actually increases the sense of fear, doesn’t it?

35: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:24

“I’ll kill someone in place of the clothing payment,” the store manager said, but when I mentioned that no one wanted to be killed.
Well then, I love how unreasonable it is for you to say that I should die.

38: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:29Yeahx2

The assassin’s 20th anniversary campaign has some occasional gag elements, but there’s absolutely no mercy when it comes to killing.
Characters that follow are similar to Rikum.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:29

Is Master Roshi stronger?

41: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:31Yeahx2

>>39At the point when Tao Pai Pai appeared, Goku, who could give Master Roshi a good fight, was getting beaten badly, so I don’t think he had any chance of winning.

40: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:31

In the episode, this guy’s invasion, where Bora is killed and Goku is also defeated, was quite speedy.

42: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:31

It was scary to kill with the tongue.

43: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:32

It’s absolutely ridiculous that they’re launching instant-death level beam techniques without any buildup at this time.

46: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:34

>>43The Kamehameha was done with both hands, but you used just one finger…

44: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:33Yeahx2

The place where General Blue was killed seems to be a turning point in the atmosphere of the manga.

45: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:34

>>44In the pirates’ cave, it’s “I’m sorry, I’ve completely ended up.”

47: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:35

A professional with a spirit of service who offers discounts to customers as a memento.

48: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:39

Dragon Ball can be said to be a character that made it possible to revive people, which led to the development of subsequent storylines.

49: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:39

Because their voice is just incredibly strong.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:43Yeahx4

>>49The gag voice is perfect, so it’s wonderful.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:40Yeahx1

It’s Otsuka’s father, right?

51: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:40

The exit was relatively abrupt, so there was a feeling of “Huh? Did they die just like that?”

52: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:42

Can this guy die from just a hand grenade?
I was not dead.

54: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:43Yeahx2

It was treated as weak, but it was actually pretty strong.It was really scary.

55: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:44

The creepy part is how the killing machine’s 20th anniversary campaign jokes are mixed in with the overwhelming feeling of this guy who kills General Blue with his first appearance tongue and flies off while riding on a pillar.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:44

In the anime, it appears during the period leading up to the Cell Games in the original Android Saga.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:44

I am witnessing the era when King Piccolo wreaked havoc, in terms of age.

58: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:45

By the way, it seems like you’ve mastered the Tsurusenryu, but didn’t you learn the Flight Technique?

71: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:52

>>58If it’s just flying, that pillar launcher is more than enough.
In the beginning, the air walking technique was treated more like a skill that just lets you float, so it’s difficult to use for movement.
Everyone started to fly at high speeds around the time of the Saiyan invasion.

74: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:55

>>58I used to be a salaryman, and I probably had no connection to martial arts in the past.

59: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:45

A character who endured Goku’s rape for 227 days.

60: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:46

Being a pure Earthling really puts you in a strong category.
Considering that you haven’t received training in the temple of the gods…

61: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:48

Even after becoming a cyborg, the fact that he can easily kick away gyoza makes me think that he could give Krillin a good match.

62: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:48

After Tao Pai Pai, even Mummy-kun was scary.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:49

>>62In the anime, he is clearly stronger than Ackerman.

65: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:49

>>62I just saw a character who pretended to give up, but then failed a surprise attack and ended up begging for their life.

63: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:49

Meeting Gohan before the Cell Games is one of the few good original anime elements.

66: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:50

In Dragon Ball, Tao Pai Pai defeats humans with his tongue attack.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:50

I lost because I was hungry, huh?
I won because I got stronger after climbing Karin Tower, right?
My memory is quite sketchy.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:52

>>67I lost fair and square, but I was able to win because I trained at Karin Tower.

72: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:55

>>67The one defeated by hunger was the tambourine.
Climbing up and down the Karin Tower actually has a training effect that made Goku stronger.
After that, Tokitō tried to approach Goku’s strength by climbing the tower, so Master Karin, concerned about him getting stronger, deliberately gave him a black Flying Nimbus to ensure he wouldn’t get stronger when coming down, allowing Goku to win.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:51Yeahx2

The aftermath of the World Martial Arts Tournament, combined with Krillin’s death, created the greatest sense of unease due to the stark contrast.

75: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:57Yeahx1

>>68After the intense battle with the Great Demon King, Goku and the others, filled with vitality, managed to subdue Majin Boo’s counterattack.
The flow of concluding the youth period at the best in the world is very good.

70: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:52

Wasn’t it super divine water?

73: Japan Otaku Reviews25/06/11(Wed)20:55Yeahx1

>>70That’s when you lost to King Piccolo.
