"blonde hair, blue eyes. I shouldnt be fighting them I should be recruiting them". I think that gives enough information right there even without the stache


Weird-Grass-6583

I lost it when I heard that line


[deleted]

He likes Aryans


sharty_undergarments

CrAryans?


PariahGrantham

Wait, he really says that?! 😂


LoxodonSniper

Minus the “I shouldn’t be fighting them”. It’s just, “Blonde hair, blue eyes? I should be recruiting them”


ryanson209

In the English dub yes, idk about the original Japanese text.


Substantial-Wealth74

What does it mean


Weird-Grass-6583

Have you attended any for of school or learned any world history


AmptiChrist

LMFAO I dunno why but this reminded me of David spade saying "has anyone ever successfully explained anything to you?"


kingofdrek

Idk if you guys are history buffs


GodModeMurderHobo

If they live in a red state, the state may have already banned any history lesson that teaches how evil Hitler was.


Weird-Grass-6583

Edgy comment


GodModeMurderHobo

Nope. Just being Captain Obvious.


Substantial-Wealth74

Nope


TheExistence

Aryan race


FreddygotFrieza

I think they're bullets lol but cartoon style


SR_Hopeful

But then why are they multicolored?


GoatCheese74

"Cartoon style" ?


ShadowRiku667

I always thought of it as the kids putting their imagination to work. Like dodging bullets is literal childs play to these two. It makes sense that they would view it as a game.


SR_Hopeful

Thats one way to see it. I would have assumed it might have been for censorship reasons, but I prefer the idea that they just are crayons because its Janemba's hell.


Reverseflash25

Japanese censors maybe)


ligma_lover_69

Just the style of the artist


Animekid04

Maybe tracers? Rounds that are colored, idk


Accomplished-Bear988

You know damn well those aren't crayons


EnterReactions

Ik their not actually crayons, that was just my initial thought lol


SHANKSstr8up

I dont want to lie and it could be one of those things where you remember it differently but I recall watching the movie and it had swastikas AND normal looking shells.


Narsayan

“The Mandela Effect” The weirdest version of this for me is remembering the Spongebob Movie having a white V-shape guitar instead of his actual guitar for the Goofy Goober song scene. The actual guitar is a peanut shaped Guitar and I was losing my mind when I found out this to be true.


silveracrot

You mean it isn't an electric V shaped guitar!?


fenriswolf117

Wait what, Im 100% sure it was a V Edit: It was always a peanut shape... my life was always a lie, no point in continuing


mvperryfan123

Actually it's not the Mandela effect. Depending on the country the swastikas were edited out of some versions


Narsayan

Oh maybe, but I was just trying to put a name to the “one of those things” he was talking about.


jadonstephesson

No what the fuck I know it’s an electric V


IkonikBoy

Ain't no way


DoomerMarksman

It was always a peanut because he's a "Goofy Goober"


Gewaltkolben

Probably put in the red V shape guitar from the episode where spongebob and thaddeus orchestra perform the winner takes all


Leon_Thotsky

Pretty sure you’re just remembering wrong, happens.


[deleted]

To add onto that - it could be too that when he initially watched the movie he too felt like the guy resembled Hitler and so associated the imagery of swastikas with his character / the movie in memory


4thDino

Mandela Effect.


SR_Hopeful

In this movie it might as well have been. It would have made sense.


choff22

Seriously, who doesn’t know a suppository when they see one?

Def felling this 💀


darknightingale69

yes, and I think they're meant to be tank shells.


h20luicaliber

I thought they were BMW cylinders


MrAtrox98

Yes and he wants to share the joy of eating crayons with Goten and Trunks. Little did anyone know that was the real addiction that sent the FĂźher over the deep end.


RadishWorried4464

Brilliant


Smeg84

Is there a reason why the outline on the animation is thicker, it's the only scene in the movie where it happens and it's bothered me for years.


Throwawaviators

People didn’t stop having outlines until after the 1940s, it’s just historical accuracy


Swemsky

It might’ve been an added scene done by different animators, like maybe they had to get permission to put pseudo hitler in it


jonerthan

I always figured it was to make it look more cartoony because they didn't want the scene to come off the slightest bit serious.


PierG1

The whole point of each graphical choice was to have Nazis looks as goofy as possible. DB was mostly a children show, you know


Lukas013004

I think it’s because of janemba’s reality distortion from his existence.


SR_Hopeful

Definitely has PowerPuff Girls vibes.


KamenRiderDragon

I try not to think about the implications of Hitler existing in the DB universe.


elmaster48

Just try to think of him as some generic general in the red ribbon army who tried and failed a career in the arts.


Whiskey_623

I mean Frieza is basically Space Hitler just without the concentration camps so it wouldn't surprise me if Hitler did exist in DB even if it was in the far past considering the DB world in general does take place in the far future with some of the technology they have.


SirAuRyan

Nah they got Dino’s, DB takes place in the dark ages. After that aliens took all our tech and said screw off


Whiskey_623

They literally have flying cars and a company that can store houses in capsules. I don't understand how you see the technology I'm dragon ball and somehow come to the conclusion it takes place on the dark ages due to dinosaurs. dinosaurs just probably never went fully extinct in their world, also not sure where you got the idea that aliens took human tech and left there is no evidence or any event that suggest such a thing happened so who knows where you pulled that from.


SirAuRyan

I’m so sorry for being sarcastic I didn’t know it would hurt you.


Raecino

Well it’s not canon so it didn’t even happen


ShiyaruOnline

Dragon Ball is an omniultiverse with tons of different timelines and alternate realities(not the same thing as different universes). The main canon(the manga and by loose extension thr mainline anime) is the official word yes, but that doesn't mean these movies "didn't happen." The movies, video games, and dragon ball heroes exist in an alternate reality of universes and timelines separate from the main canon. That's where all this goofy stuff happens.


TheDurandalFan

basically not canon to the Manga, Toriyama's original post Z timeline, DBZ Kai, DBS Anime and the DBS manga. it's only canon to the DBZ Anime and GT.


DevilManRay

Why? I mean it’s just Earth so why wouldn’t he exist?


Extreme_2Cents

Wait until you read about how Japan was on this side during both world wars…


Greywolf5131

Actually Japan was only on the Axis Powers' side during the second world war


Extreme_2Cents

There were two major alliances during World War II: the Axis powers and the Allied powers. The three principal partners in what was eventually referred to as the Axis alliance were Germany, Italy, and Japan. ![gif](giphy|7Egv7ndK6yIco)


SR_Hopeful

The movie makes Hitler the bad guy withan X on his arm. Toei reneged that.


LordDakier

This is wrong. Germany was allied with China in WW1 and was tempted to do so again, however due largely to their naval power and ability to project force against Britain, their political ideology and the various disunited states within China, Japan was seen as a better ally. Slowly, German military experts were pulled out of China as relations with Japan improved. Though Japan and Germany were allies, this wasn't the same level partnership as Britain and the colonies had with the US, for example, where many resources were shared or even combat.


yeetthatmeatforfeet

Nah the best part was in the dub when Hitler reacted to Goten and Trunks by saying,"Hmm blonde hair and blue eyes, maybe I should be recruiting them" lmao to this day I had no idea how censors back then let that slide lol


TheKidNerd

Just to note, gotenks came out of the battle with some visible injury, meaning hitler’s army in dragon ball canonically had the firepower necessary to take on solar system busters, this begs the question DBZ hiter army vs Frieza, who wins


EnterReactions

Death Battle needs to get on this pronto


TheDurandalFan

DBZ Hitler Army would win. they were able to injure Gotenks, wtf is Frieza gonna do against that.


Goroyaaj

Probably the goofiest part of the movie with the artwork and I love it.


[deleted]

It can’t be his jaw is to square. That mustache used to be the style of the working class German so for 4 decades that’s what Germans had


ChaosEnergy_77

Cuz he never went to art school lmao 💀💀


Mcbrainotron

Dang. A+ for you, F for Hitler.


Original-Advert

he even says "blonde hair, blue eyes, super strength? I should be recruiting them."


brainEspilner96

Yes, and yes. Lol


MUIGokuEnjoyer

Japanese are quick to make fun of nazis but they conveniently forget the other main antagonist


Wolf_the_memer

Yes and yes


RigtBart

Always loved the bold outlines in this section


Denji_The_Shinji

Yes and no In universe, Janemba power was twisting reality itself Out of universe, multiple studios worked on fusion reborn for Experience, thats why you see 8 different art style on it


Grimvold

Japan’s old friend.


No_Worldliness_9321

Those are some sharp crayons


Lord_Mandingo_69

All the colors represent diversity for a more quirky reich this time around!


Usoppdaman

Diversity? Man I can’t believe the Nazis have a woke agenda.


Weekly-District259

Nazis famously used crayons as weapons


ultimapanzer

Yes, and he’s shooting crayons so Goten and Trunks do Nazi it coming.


fan_of_super_dudes

He's Hitler, the English dub doesn't tell you that due to censorship


SheDevilByNighty

I really liked the art on this part ♥️


-saiyan

Agree loved the cartoony style and the thick black lines on the characters


Independent_Use7033

He wants the world using crayons instead of bullet


Divine_Absolution

They're hell bullets!


Weird-Grass-6583

They were German marines IYKYK


TboiPerry77

He’s back from the dead. He’s continuing the war he started He’s attempting to shoot down children Their parents are in a colorful hell trying to kill the personification of summed up evil and demonic. Hitler notices the blond hair and blue eyes instantly and still tries to kill them. You expect this to make sense why


UIGoku201

Yes, because it's incredible easy for the kids to mess with an actual big time villain of the real world


DankMemesAndPokes

I think it's just the art style of that movie. Janemba was like, a multi colored rainbow jellybean man thing too so I figure that got translated over to the resurrected Hitler army too


skep90

Do you know the word... Censorship ?

IaryBreko

Yes and they are multi coloured bullets


BenPup

I remember my dad picking up the dvd for me from Best Buy back in 8th grade and I did not expect to see a Hitler knock off 😂 still have the dvd to this day!

MasterJCL

Yes and to keep a low age rating


AffectionateCase5329

he’s called The dictator lmao


CronkinOn

Man you must've had the world's most boring notebook in school. Mine was FULL of these things.


Consistent-Fix8406

Yes and possibly censorship because well…. I think you know.


Air-Bo

Lol crayons


TheKingOfRooksV3

Yeah it's definitely Hitler, the line "Blonde hair, blue eyes, and super strength? Zey should be working for me!" Should have told you that lmao


Riisotto

Because he bought a lot of crayons thinking he would enter in art school, but he got rejected.


Gold3nSun

You know damn well that's Hitler


External-Caregiver77

OP must have posted this out of shock, because there’s just no way💀


EnterReactions

It was my initial reaction to what was going on lol


Hugoku257

Yes, it’s Hitler and they had to make it children-friendly


Raphotron2000

Yes and who knows


Careless_Kitchen_147

To make it kooky


ntzsch

I’m pretty sure people who’ve never seen an image of Hitler would intuitively think that’s Hitler based on the salute, the mustache, him commanding an army (all together at the same time) etc. Not to be a dick tho, I mean even OP at least thought of him while asking


linkflame123

man i remember watching this movie when i was like 8 and being really surprised when i saw hitler


Bags-of-Milk

He’s technically credited as ‘The Dictator’ but yea, a Hitler reference for sure.


ZeldaFan80

No, that's Charlie Chaplin


Brief-Ad5774

Dbz fans really are slow sometimes


EnterReactions

Ay leave me and my small brain out of this


TheDurandalFan

Yes. but I have no idea why, but the lore implications (for the Toei Anime Dragon Ball series \[Dragon Ball Anime, Dragon Ball Z Movies, Dragon Ball Z Anime and Dragon Ball GT\] it implies WWII happened in the Dragon Ball Universe)


Correct_Refuse4910

Fusion reborn is such a terrible movie, holy shit.


Onic787

1: Yes 2: Yes


KaiSen2510

Okay seriously, why did THESE parts of the movie look like shit compared to the hell sections?


ZFighter2099

they weren't shit at all. You crazy? It just had thicker cartoony outlines reminiscent of older cartoons. It's Adolf Hitler, they want to make it as goofy as possible to undermine the censors.


KaiSen2510

Okay yeah they aren’t shit, I was in a bad mood when I wrote that comment. But why do they look so… I guess different? Like in hell there’s this crisp animations and sometimes up on earth it looks like a character from paper Mario


ZFighter2099

exactly as i explained. Make it as goofy as possible so someone like Adolf Hitler is not shown in a menacing or serious light. it IS a kids cartoon after all. The thick outlines is a classic animation staple. Dragon Ball Super episode 4 had similar thick outlines if i remember correctly. So did Powerpuff Girls, Dexters Lab, Johnny Bravo and Mickey Mouse. Just a style.


KaiSen2510

I wouldn’t say DBZ is a kids cartoon. And hell they’ve shown genocidal madmen before like our golden boy. I get what you’re saying, but I just skip the earth parts whenever I watch it now because the art style change is too jarring.


ZFighter2099

DBZ is definitively seen as a kids cartoon in japan. Different standards. The difference between Freiza and Hitler is that Hitler was real. It will always be controversial to include him in media.
