Akira Toriyama’s Dragon Ball franchise is one of the biggest ever to come out of anime and manga, and it has spawned several different franchises that have gone off into their own popularity. The fandom for this series is especially strong, and in 2008, a group of fans came together to share their parodical take on the anime with a series of fun short videos adapting the events of the Saiyan saga. Dragon Ball Z Abridged has since grown over the years into its own massive juggernaut, and this experiment from Team Four Star took on a whole new life.

With the last full project from this web series debuting back in 2018, and a notable project in the works was publicly scrapped, fan concern was eventually confirmed as Team Four Star announced that Episode 60 of the series (which is a massive three part battle between Gohan and Cell) was actually the final episode of the project.
Later confirming that the Dragon Ball Z Abridged project has officially ended, and any plans to continue to adapt the events of the original series were canceled, fans of Team Four Star’s series have take to the Internet to bid farewell to the fan favorite series. It’s been a big part of many fans’ lives, some just as long as the original series, so it was a bittersweet farewell indeed.
But how do you feel about Dragon Ball Z Abridged officially coming to an end? Let us know your thoughts in the comments or talk to me directly about all things anime and other cool things @Valdezology on Twitter!

“It’s the End of an Era”
Welp…its the end of a era… I’m going to miss these guys so much. And even though we won’t have Dragon Ball Z abridged to keep us happy and what not around anymore. They’re still many great projects from these guys to come. https://t.co/ew4oZYpbol

“Huge Part of My Childhood”
Just now learning about the Dragon Ball Z Abridged series ending. Can’t believe it. These dudes had one of the BIGGEST impacts on the online VA community in terms of setting the bar for qualit, and i’ve actually learned quite a bit from them. Huge part of my childhood.

“DBZ Always Felt Like it Was Meant to End There”
So Dragon Ball Z Abridged is officially over?
โ Brave Express Kiryu (@KiryuDK) February 7, 2020
I mean it sucks that they won’t do the Buu Arc, but the Cell Saga feels like a high enough note to end the series on.
Though, DBZ always felt like it was meant to end there

“We Shouldn’t be Sad that it’s Over, We Should be Happy it Happened”
Looks like Dragon Ball Z Abridged is over, no Buu saga happening.
โ Zander-The-Artist (@ZanderArtist) February 6, 2020
We shouldn’t be sad that it’s over, we should be happy it happened.
It had a good run, 60 episodes is way more than enough for an abridged series.
“Thanks for 11 Years of Laughs, Team Four Star”
It’s definitely sad that Dragon Ball Z Abridged has officially come to an end but funny enough, DBZA ended exactly where the series should have ended anyway. Thanks for the 11 years of laughs @teamfourstar

Takahata101 Reflects on 10 Plus Years of Greatness!
I keep deleting my thoughts about DBZA the traditional series ending. It sucks, it really does. But change is a constant in life. Hell I have 10+ years of my life to DragonBallZ Abridged and Hellsing Ultimate Abridged. I loved creating hilarious moments with my friends.
