Dragon Ball Z Abridged Pulled! Copyright Strikes Again

Dragonball Z Abridged is down again but we're working to get it back!

[firstnamelastname]

Last line of episode 57 (pre-stinger): "We're all going to die!"

(a few days later, all episodes removed)

[geliscon]

I know #WTFU stands for "Where's the Fair Use?" but every time I see it I can't help but think "What the Fuck UTube!?" so that's a thing.

SENZU BEAN! _(THROWS A SENZU BEAN AT DBZA)_

Quick! Someone gather the Dragon Balls and wish for Youtube to stop being so damn broken!

[azshorty]

I am one of those that never saw the series before and fell in love with your abridged series. I then went and watched the full series starting from original Dragon Ball.

Thank you for all your hard work and all that you do, and oh so many laughs. Thanks TFS!!

"We have no intention of stopping unless we have to."

Oh how times have changed....

[hattheduck]

Yet all the people who re upload your video and reaction to your video didn't get strike, i fucking hate youtube sometime

[daisukedoi]

This is the definition of Copyright abuse.

Fair Use allows you to create Parodies, and abridged isn't affecting DBZ in a bad way. Even the companies hired you guys.

This is dumb. You are in the right here. Abridged is perfectly LEGAL. I hate how YouTube just lets these companies literally abuse the law to bully others.

I just don't understand how they can continually rip down the same episodes over and over again. How is there not some kind of system in place that prevents content from being pulled multiple times. If content has been cleared several times in the past, then why does it need to be checked again for the 100th time? This is a huge waste of time and resources for everyone involved, so I can't comprehend why some kind of system hasn't already been put in place to prevent repeat abuse from outside forces. I could understand being able to challenge new episodes, but the ones that have been up for literally years, there's no excuse for.

[ssjvegeta]

You would think Toei would understand that doing this only hurts them and pisses off their audience.

[Bear_Andersen_Gaming]

I would never have watched DBZ in the first place if it hadn't been for DBZA

[ryanbrown]

Whatever happens, we're right behind you guys every step of the way.

[moonraven]

maybe one day Companies may learn of Fair Use laws... but not today it seems.

[treybrown]

Dear who ever might actually read this, I have a friend who thinks anima is stupid but I showed him your first episodes and he loved it so much. When we are together we barely go a day with our quoting it to each other and
For myself a die hard dbz fan you sparked my interest in the show when I started watching your abridge version and had fun with that so thank you so much for what you did for me and my friendship please keep doing what you do!

*Music, Parodies, Anime, Skits*

10 years ago YouTube lived in harmony under fair use laws, however, everything changed when Bullshit copyright claims attacked.


only the OG Youtubers, masters of all 4 elements could stop them, but when the world needed them most they vanished


10 years later, my brother and I discovered a new channel, a parody channel called TFS, I believe TFS can save the world



I made this on the toilet just roll with it

[fudogcook]

Your channel has literally reignited dwindling flames of fandom for this fantastic franchise and never once did you take credit for the source material. Please continue doing the wonderful things you do and bring laughter and love for this series for years to come.
(Hell, try and get rights to sell the abridged series through Funimation and I'll buy the holy hell out of the box sets.)

Toie animation: they called me crazy, THEY ALL CALLED ME CRAZY for striking TFS YouTube videos, well guess what I got better ideas for my dragon ball show it's gonna be so much better than DBZ no on will make my show any better, especially TFS right nappa!?

Shows nappa holding the Dragon ball GT LOGO

Toie animation: HOW! HOW DARE YOU!

🔥🔥🔥 EVERYTHING IS ON FIRE 🔥🔥🔥 IT'S ALL BURNING 🔥🔥🔥

[belenalee]

It saddens me so much that y’all had to deal with so much crap and got burnt out. DBZA helped my husband out of a DAAAARK place when he first got back from Afghanistan. A lot of the times when he is “having a moment” DBZA is something to calm him down along with our dog. The amount of love and overwhelming amount of gratitude for y’all making DBZA can’t be expressed. I can’t put into words the change in him before an episode and after one or two. I may not be your wealthiest, available, or most present fan but I may be the most grateful. He is branching out into your other videos and the nuzlockes are doing the same thing as well as Krillin or Vegeta plays. Y’all have NO IDEA what you truly do for some of your fans by just being funny and silly. Y’all have a gift and I’m so thankful you share it.

This just had to happen on my birthday...but not only that it happened on IVAN OOZE'S BIRTHDAY
