Sean Schemmel is such a great actor, and hearing Goku actually near tears at the thought of losing his loved ones, man…a punch right in my heart.

Also side eyeing some people in the comments. As someone who has seen both the Japanese and English version of Kai, as well as someone who recently re-read the entire manga of DB-DBZ just a couple months ago… You’re still wrong.

Goku caring about his loved ones not some English dub invention.

While the original Z anime did sprinkle in some additional lines to make it more clear, it was still there regardless in the original even if not seen as often because the story had it’s focus elsewhere.

This scene you see in front of you is the English dub of Kai, which is far more faithful to the manga than the original anime, and this dub is also extremely faithful to the original than compared to the original Z dub.

Case in point, plenty of us who love the dub have in fact watched the original and read the manga.

Are you sure YOU have watched the original? And I question if you even read the manga if you still insist Goku never cared about his loved ones. (For crying out loud Goku sacrificed himself TWICE to protect his son-Gohan, besides Krillin’s death-Freeza threatening to then do the same to Gohan is part of what pushes him over the edge and he transforms into an SSJ for the first time, shown both his sons affection and pride in them, and we even see glimpses of his affection for Chichi)

Ranting aside, seeing glimpses of Goku’s nightmare of Freeza destroying the Earth and killing everyone he cares about is so chilling and heartbreaking, especially when you get to the end of the clip, seeing the faces of everyone Goku wants to protect, all those he does not want to fail. And of course the last two people in his thoughts are the first two people we see at the start of his nightmare, his wife and son. They are the first and last thing on his mind of those he cannot fail because they are the most important.
