Dragon Ball Super and Childish Gambino Make For One Hype AMV
Taking some of the most action-heavy moments from Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, Scott hones in on the scenes where main protagonists Gohan and Piccolo are fighting against the Red Ribbon Army duo known as Gamma 1 and Gamma 2 while slipping in other clips — like a few featuring Goku and Vegeta’s satisfying sparring session and even Gohan’s daughter, Pan, learning the ropes as a Z-Warrior — to help his AMV edit flow seamlessly. Perfectly syncing parts of Childish Gambino’s “Sweatpants” single taken from his 2013 album titled Because The Internet, Scott effectively uses the song’s bumping beat and spot-on lyrics to bring fans a clip that will no doubt give them more than a few goosebumps while watching!
But that’s not all! Scott even manages to cut in a few other Dragon Ball heroes into his video, like Beerus, Whis, Krillin, Broly, and even the infamous “Orange Piccolo” transformation, finishing off a clip that’s power level was already reaching well over 9000! AMV clips always seem to deliver the goods when it comes to fan-produced content, and now with Scott Frerichs (@KaiserNeko) on the case, fans might have to put a rewatch on Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero and a re-listen to Childish Gambino’s discography soon!
