Curious Thoughts - Vegeta

At the beginning of the very first Toonami TIE, The Intruder, Tom 1 was mentioning Vegeta from Dragon Ball Z before Sara screamed that an intruder had entered the hall. But, I'm curious about something: was Vegeta really friends with Tom 1? Because it all links to something potentially much more powerful. So powerful in fact that it would even bring the most feint-hearted Toonami fan into tears. Here goes:

When Tom 1 first arrived on US screens, Vegeta had been training him behind the scenes. The two had a mentor-student relationship that felt like that of a father and son, and as time passed and shows on Cartoon Network came and went, their bond strengthened and grew. The days grew into years, weeks and months, and with every second he spent with Vegeta, Tom 1, a weak little robot host, grew stronger and more powerful to face even the scariest content some of his shows had to represent.

However, the massive downhill point came when The Intruder aired. Vegeta prayed that Tom would survive this, but we knew what happened, don't we? It was an event that would change Vegeta's life forever and place a firm impact on his mental health. After watching Tom get consumed by The Intruder, he screamed as loud as his did in Dragon Ball Z and began crying mournfully.

For the rest of his years, he fell into a deep depression over the loss of his student. He couldn't eat or drink anything, he refused to partake in filming of future Dragon Ball episodes or films and worst of all, his Saiyan powers faded until it was just a spark. The Vegeta he used to be was gone forever, all thanks to the loss of his faithful student.

But when DBZ aired uncut in 2005, Vegeta couldn't take seeing Tom in his then-current form anymore. He flew into a rage and began throwing things around, overturning tables and attacking other characters that were attending every uncut screening, until, one day, he bit Goku's arm right off.

All this sent him to a mental asylum, where he was treated and experimented on multiple times before he emerged battered, bruised, bloody and with one arm missing. It was here that Toonami returned to TV screens in 2012, and years later, Intruder II premiered, and Vegeta knew it was his chance to help the Tom he despised show the Intruder who's boss.

He told the Intruder to listen to him very carefully, and said to him all the wise words he'd forgotten when he was consumed. Upon hearing those words, Tom 1 began crying, something he refused to do when he signed a contract for starring as the host of Toonami. And with that, after Intruder II had finished filming, he turned back into his normal self. Various news reports and tabloids said he'd disappeared for so long, leading to Vegeta's mental health spiral, but now, the two are reunited.

Remember: never be afraid to cry. Sometimes, it's through a robot host's tears that one depressed cartoon star manages to find one way when he is urgent to find another.

One Rude Tater (An Anti-Disney Protest Poem Themed Around Toy Story)

Disney! How dare you make Toy Story 5

It’s the worst thing I’ve seen since Dead Or Alive

Remember back them when CGI was no big deal

Or when Timon and Pumbaa had bugs for every meal?

Well let me tell you, folks, it ain’t true

So that’s why I’m bringing this message to you

Back then, our days with Andy are full of splendor

But you’re filling our movies with AI slop gore!

I mean, look what we’ve been through today

Disney knows magic doesn’t naturally pay

They replaced gentle princesses with adorkable teens,

They focused on teen sitcoms, you know what this means?

Us characters are gonna be thrown aside

If we don’t do as well as Kiara besides

It looks like Disney is dominated by AI!

The lions look real in The Lion King,

I’ve never heard of such a thing!

Plus Moana’s coming back and it’s all CGI

How can you do this? It makes my brain fry

And fly right up into the dark sky

Remember back then when Andy held us close?

He was the one we loved the most

Now Bonnie is just a spoiled high pitched brat

Who panics when playing and that is that

Have you ever seen the kids in Toy Story 3

They panic when they play with us even before tea

It’s like aliens are invading, no offence

To the Little Green Men who owe me sixpence

Back when Andy kept us, we were in Heaven

Even before this annoying 6-7

Mr Potato Head was rude and annoyed

But he still cared for us and his owner boy

Slinky played chess even before Buzz came

Without Andy, life wasn’t always the same

I can hear Bonnie screaming outside in the yard

It makes my ears bleed, and they bleed hard!

And those Disney Junior shows put me off guard

Disney Junior’s dominated by CGI

They think it replaces cherries in a pie

Everything except Bluey is made in 3D

Why can’t you do characters drawn on paper for me?

Then I’ll have fast paced Mickey’s flesh for tea!

Pixar itself is going downhill

Life hasn’t been much of a thrill

Especially with sequels going around

With shaky camera movements and loud sounds

And what is Disney Channel like these days?

They think Big City Greens is the new craze

As well as teen sitcoms, give them a break

Making new content is a piece of cake

But don’t make sitcoms, make something unique

Leave out the hysterics, leave out the chique

And I wish we had the old Little Bo Peep!

All these films and shows make me really mad

With that I shall tip off my hat

And throw it like a frisbee towards your neck

And slice it until blood makes the place wet!

No hand drawn characters? It makes me pissed

It makes viewers wonder, what did I miss?

Well they miss nothing, everything is crap

It’s too unoriginal to run another lap!

All studios these days are entering the race

To send sequels and remakes all over the place

But we, Andy’s toys, have had enough

Of all the soulless predictable stuff

And now you’re plotting to rid Pooh of his fluff!

The hand drawn animation is thrown in the bin

The ratings on Disney Junior are all thin

And so is Disney Channel, hear this, guys

When we burst through the door you’ll get a surprise

And during revenge, there’s no need for disguise!

With help from our fans, we can save our lives

And bring back magic day and night

Because we hate Disney’s new money scheme

We’re in danger, if you know what I mean

And in case you don’t know where we’ve been…

“You’ve got a friend in me….”

Friendly Thoughts - Hold Me Close

I have some shocking (well, not at all shocking) news to tell you all about Transformers Armada. Last night I couldn't get to sleep, and listening to the same old stories didn't do me any good. Then, I remembered something: back when my days of anxiety were upon me, I was falling asleep to things like My Little Pony and If You Give A Mouse A Cookie on Prime Video on my A.

So I thought to myself, why don't I let the Transformers soothe me to sleep? So, after some failed attempts at letting the Teen Titans soothe me to sleep, who should soothe me to sleep but the kind hearted, slow paced team of Autobots from Transformers Armada. Especially Optimus Prime. 

As I was falling asleep to the slow paced yet heavy hitting action packed adventures of the Autobots, I thought about the kind, deep caress of Optimus' giant arms around Furaha and Orko, how they sigh softly as he cradled them to sleep, and how much pleasure and sensuality they get from being with a kind, loving carer like the big 'bot. Sorry, Cheetor.

"No offence, man."

Wheras Applejack gets to sleep by listening to Little Big Town on her Equestrizon Call, and Mouse eats extra cookies and drinks a really big glass of milk before bedtime, Optimus does exactly the opposite. He cares deeply and comfortably for our two friends, Furaha and Orko, like he is a second father to them. Kiburi and Ua will be proud.

And in my dreams, I swore I could hear him whisper to Furaha:

"Close your eyes. Now forget what you see. What do you feel?"
