Team Four Star - Creators of a bunch of stuff to make people laugh trying to figure out what to do after a decade of comedically retelling Dragon Ball Z.
Fat, ugly, and now non-binary. From what Martin's said about his life, she was the first person he ever fucked. Apparently he assumed his first wife was just waiting until marriage, until their wedding night when she couldn't go through with it because of her previous sexual trauma, and no sex lead to their divorce. Then Kirbopher introduced him to wife number two, who was an American citizen so he could not only get pussy but also a green card. Marianne, or Marin as it now calls itself, was apparently also raped, and that was her first dude before Martin. Apparently he has a type.
This is what she used to look like, and she hasn't aged well:

I remember seeing Martin use a cane in one of these... and that would have been when he was early.. mid 30s? The man looks like and has the health of an old man.
@Neil I feel like LittleKuriboh would delete all of these episodes if he could get away with it. That’s the only thing I can take away from disavowing to this scale.
He averages about 2-3 videos a year nowadays. At this point the comments are always just some flavor of "I'm just glad this series is still going" or "take as much time as you need Martin".

Here's what I believe is going to happen with that.
Assuming he doesn't suffer any significant health problems in the time it'll take him to conclude the Abridged Series as-is, he will then take the first 63 episodes (Everything up until the end of Battle City) down and opt to redux them, as those are the amount of episodes that currently have those gross disclaimers in their respective description sections. Somewhat in the vein of what he did as a one-off in 2009:
He'll argue that in addition to the style of humor being more tasteful and politically correct, it'll also be a good thing because the editing will be soooo much better than it was before (personally I think after he started mirroring KaiserNeko's editing style, the series got a lot more insufferable - but I digress), plus consistency FTW.
Probably also helps that a number of people that he fell out with on the worst of terms are in those initial episodes, namely his ex-wife playing Rebecca Hawkins. It'd be convenient for him to whitewash history in that regard as well, not to mention intellectually consistent with his current personality.
It’s funny when TFS acts like the abridged series is not a replacement for the source material yet the plot of their abridged series is the same exact thing, and their fans treat DBZ abridged and Hellsing Abridged as substitutes for their respective shows.
From a personal anecdote, with a group of friends were discussing power scaling and someone heavily downplayed Alucard, yet their only source was Hellsing Abridged.

Because a good chunk of their fans are glue huffing twats, who believe that a bunch of dorks somehow made the source material "better", and frankly this shit only works when the source material is actually terrible. That's why SAO Abridged walks circles around the actual SAO. While DBZA and HuA is just takin' existing work which was fine or good, and then busting out yer crayons all over the script and going "Hurr durr..me make it bettah! Me understand writing!", an this is where I think where TFS really kinda flops. If someone actually gave 'em a really bad anime, they sure as fuck wouldn't be able to "improve" it, because they don't really know how.

After nearly 20 years it's ok to admit that dbza was just Dragonball dumbed down for the family guy crowd. Same referential humor, same flanderization, and same type of midwits behind the scenes.

They even admitted by the end they were trying to 'fix' problems with the source material by inserting stuff like that video of Gero's kid who 16 was based on getting killed by Goku, and ending the series with Cell because anything else was an anti-climax.
Having said that, I have no interest in going back and watching the original anime because even as a kid, the filler pissed me off. And I have some nostalgia for watching the episodes as they came out 15 years ago. It's nowhere near pro level, part of the reason they never did an original series is because they don't have the professional drive needed to make one, but it's still dumb fun.
TFS and its consequences where a disaster for the Dragonball fandom
I enjoyed DBZA back in the day but they peaked during namek and I hate the fact that these Niggers turned what where memes poking fun at the admittedly some times dumb writing of Toriyama in to hard fact in the mind of their fans, like the Goku is a bad father thing Toriyama clearly tried to portray him as a carring, loving father that loves his children and wife its why Gohan respects him and Chi Chi loves him, Toriyama just fucked it up resulting in some unfortunate implication that make it look like Goku is a terible father but DBZA portrayed Goku as a literall retard that has no love for his kids of wife (Super did this to and I hate them for it) people tooke this as hard fact and ran withe it parroting it if any discusion of Dragonball comes up.
I'm glad they stoped the series withe Cell I was disapointed at the time and belived its better to end if they can't come up withe good material but looking back on it I'm sure it was Kaiser being a litteral faggot refusing to sign of on scripts that are "problematic", fuck that guy he some how manages to embodie every negative steriotyp of weebs especily his Nippon purity masturbation

Just watch HFIL for an example of everything wrong withe the writing of TFS its got a few funny moments but is completely forgettable relying on in joke references and one dimensional characters or simplye put its Dragonball themed Family guy.

if you look at dbza as parody, it's alright
if you look at it as fanfic....oh god
it just does the same plot with the occasional joke
you know, until they stopped doing those
16's speech to gohan was the definition of cringe
the finale as a whole really

Something Witty at least changes things enough that SAO Abridged feels like its own thing than a SAO replacement, though it is a genuine improvement because the people behind it have a stronger understanding of gamer culture than the actual SAO author.
They also just made a one-shot abridged of Isekai Smartphone which is honestly funnier than most of TFS' abridged series and general attempts at comedy
