Yea this AI stuff is really becoming my breaking point for social media. I don't think I can look at another post you the effect of "this is going to kill Hollywood".

And we're going to have a million of the most annoying fans in the world convinced they can expertly challenge and outdo whatever future Dragon Ball animation we eventually get because they can throw that shit into the slop remixer

I can't lie, the SeedDance AI shit feels so depressing as a DBZ fan I just don't feel like watching my feed get flooded with the dumbest AI shit devoid of any real passion just because it looks good

The craziest thing is the Budokai 1 dev team acting like the original models were THAT fucking hideous lol

The fun part about the Budokai/Shin Budokai hacking is that you can easily swap character models. Meaning you can get an Android 18 that thinks she's actually Majin Boo.

Hey @battlegeekplus.com what's the best way to play Dragon Quest X 👀 How do you think it compares it the other mainline games?

Kinda interesting that Akira Toriyama's The World designates one of Toriyama's alternate designs as Shenron (one using his webbed ears).

I continue to find the manga vs American comics/anime vs American cartoons debate endlessly corny.

Anybody remember those N64 controllers they'd have in hotel rooms? I always wanted to rent a game on one of those 😤

Talking to the one guy who experienced Battle of Gods through the ani-comic

Me and the bros talking about our favorite Dragon Ball arc, Battle of Gods (we all watched different versions)

I'm not delusional enough to believe they'll forgo the classic characters for the new original ones. But there is a good setup in my opinion to see futuristic "descendants" of fan favorites integrated into the new world that might give a fresher experience.

Maybe a hot take, but I hope Age 1000 stays far away from the Xenoverse formula of using time travel to visit alternate moments from the main story and instead focuses hard on it's unique new universe and characters.

Although very tempting from an engagement standpoint, I told myself when I first started YouTube that I would not be a "dragon ball news" channel. Not for any kind of "integrity" reason, it just seems like it'd stressful to be on top of stuff like that

I think the "Dragon Ball Fans Can't Read" meme is only funny when the person in question is being a dick. Cuz sometimes it's just casual fans asking genuine questions about a series with historically terrible localization And then they get slapped with tha meme

Tobal 2 is such a gorgeous game y'all, I'm having a lot of fun with it

Youtube is kinda wild sometimes cuz i got a lot of people trying to convince me that Dragon Ball GT Final Bout was a good game lol

Somebody's gotta extract the real important models in Dragon Ball Z Budokai :) Request from @saberbreaker.wegottapodcast.com

Dragon Quest VII Reimagined is straight up gorgeous and certainly in need of a facelift but a part of me wishes this treatment was given to DQV DQV doesn’t need this…like at all. It already has two amazing remakes. But man, I can imagine it perfectly with this style

Compare this against the longer and more complex rendering process for the 2011 game Dragon Ball Zenkai Battle

“hOW diD you ExTRacT that ASSeT?” You’d be surprised how often changing the extension of a file just fucking works lmao

Ya know it’s hard to argue with Torishima when America doesn’t value Toriyama related printed media at all. There’s so much shit we don’t get that pretty much all other countries get. To the point I’ve actually just started buying a bunch of Dragon Ball products in Spanish.

I’m actually insanely curious on what this bootleg ass Yugioh card set contains

Any Computer Graphics nerds out here on BlueSky? Here's a "Behind-the-Scenes" look at how Dragon Ball Z Infinite World renders a scene :)

With a little bit of hacking you can manipulate this outline model in the games and observe the effect :)

How does the outline effect in the PS2 DBZ Budokai games work? Well essentially there are two models directly placed on top of each other. The outline model has its normals inverted, and its vertices displaced in a direction determined by its normal value, creating the effect.

I think my goal for this year is to focus my content more on behind the scenes Dragon Ball gaming stuff because that’s really what I’m most interested in (even if I don’t think my viewers are)

I feel like anime card game fans live like on a separate pocket of the internet

Would y'all like me to do a "Behind the Scenes Secrets" video for Budokai 3 and Infinite World? What are some things you're curious about?

Haven't forgotten this, just haven't had time to sit down and lock in on this

A little behind the scenes magic but during that fun mini-game in Dragon Ball Infinite World, you are indeed just playing as the disembodied hand of Freeza lol

I'm curious, how many of y'all like 3D anime? I think it can be executed really well if don't right but I was surprised by the amount of people absolutely appalled by it

I need to find all my old Dragon Ball Twitter moots here

Time to wake up for a fresh @kanzenshuu.com podcast episode! This time around we have @vegettoex.bsky.social chatting with @goldenportable.bsky.social about pre-smartphone games and his work porting one of them (a racing game!!!) to the PlayStation 2. 👂🎙️📻👇 www.kanzenshuu.com/2025/11/30/p...

Spoiler: we have @goldenportable.bsky.social coming up on the next podcast episode talking all about old Dragon Ball mobile phone games and his work on porting this racing game (!!!) to the PlayStation 2! Stay tuned to your RSS feeds next week...

@vegettoex.bsky.social from Kanzenshuu was able to test my early DBZ Racing port on real PlayStation 2 hardware and it works like a charm! Planning a V2 release sometime next week with some actual basic gameplay and the actual Goku racer sprites in!

I've been looking for what I can assume might just be something I made up in my head: a picture of Akira Toriyama surrounding by a bunch of Arale plush merchandise 🤔 Am I crazy?

Dragon Ball Kart PS2 Update Time (11/19): Camera is now a proper "follow-cam" (no Smooth-Cam/Interpolation yet) Very basic car acceleration, no turning. Actually somewhat of a game now, even if barebones lol

Dragon Ball Kart PS2 Update (11/12): Rendering of 3D elements on the PlayStation 2 is relative to the camera's placement. So even though I have the math to move the Kart, I need to translate its position to camera coordinates. Or else you get trippy behaviour like this :)

I’m not an “all games need an easy mode” type of guy but I think this game could benefit a lot from some difficulty adjusters

Anybody beat Black Myth Wukong? I really liked the story and world of the game but unfortunately I’m too ass to actually enjoy it 😭

Also the seller sent a random Japanese Pokémon card with it too which was neat :)

As someone who fell into the “all Shonen manga in the 60s/70s looked like Tezuka/Ishinomori” trap, reading Weekly Shonen Jump Issue 1 (1968) made me appreciate the sheer variety of styles packed into their first volumes. Early manga history should be more storied in America

Day 4 Dragon Ball Racing PlayStaion 2 Update: Version 0.01 Officially Released on my Itch! Literally just a Render Test right now, but I figured out how to pack the game into a valid ISO that you can run yourself in PCSX2 (or even burn to a disc) Follow me and give it a spin!

For those of y’all who aren’t following me on Twitter (understandable) I’ve been working on porting Dragon Ball Racing (2009) from Japanese mobile phone to PlayStation 2 Here’s a quick render test so far!

Guess what I got?

Also at 6th place in Beckett’s July 2002 “Top 10 Dragon Ball Toys” list is Broly with a semiautomatic

Here are some 2002 toy catalog listings from Beckett’s Dragon Ball Collectors Magazine featuring everyone’s favorite gun touting Krillin and Vegeta 😎

Added on to my list of shit I don’t pronounce right: The “Hakusho” in Yu Yu Hakusho 🧐
