VIDEO: A Real Kid Turns Super Saiyan On His Webcam

The latest viral phenom shows it's possible.

"One does not turn Super-Saiyan from desire, but only when there is need.” - - Goku

I’ll let the video above speak for itself. This kid’s already got more comments than he’ll need for, well, basically the rest of his life. And I can certainly sympathize about the extremes of behavior that DBZ will push even the sanest and most reserved of men.

All I’ll say is that Funimation’s clearly got the perfect new voice actor here for the next DBZ KAI box set. Even if they’ve already finished recording all of it, they absolutely need to go back and re-dub the entire thing with this kid playing some major role (or, at the very least, providing the foley for any time anybody ever powers up.) You just know that Sean Schemmel and Chris Sabat have never, ever just brought it to an audition the way this kid has. Look at all those veins bulging on his forehead!

If only this kid's mother would've walked in or something.

Why is this video everywhere!?

How are we running out of news stories in a month where Transformers 4 was announced and a Voltron life insurance commercial was plastered all over TV not being mentioned on AV to the point this was worth bringing up? Is he a AV contributor?

That's really erm something...

I am extremely fond of this kid and found his naïvete sweet and inspiring.

And this is why you don't see dragged-out transformation sequences in modern shounen power-battle titles.
MackGyveron Feb. 16, 2012 at 5:46 p.m.

Wow, I didn't expect anyone would do this on video. This kid will forever be haunted by this for the rest of his life.

i wish he actually achieved it.

You know, like this:

Heh. This made my day.

He brought the veins, the music and the intensity. But at the end of the day all he is going to get is a hernia lol.
Dreamon Feb. 16, 2012 at 9:12 p.m.
@Sonata: He sounded more like he was having an orgasm.
 
When Saiyans become Super Saiyans, they're supposed to get constipated as they power-up.

@Dream: LOL he did take off his shirt :P

I think he would have better luck transforming into a Shinigami

Grimon Feb. 16, 2012 at 11:50 p.m.

Seems Legit.

Black_Roseon Feb. 16, 2012 at 11:57 p.m.

This baffles me to no end. I'm not sure if the kid is stupid, naive or hilarious.

AgentJon Feb. 17, 2012 at 2:15 a.m.

Is this supposed to be the new Star Wars kid? Because it looks like it's working.

KainScionon Feb. 17, 2012 at 2:28 a.m.

this is so retarded.
