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 🧐

It was a real one last night.

I’m having a hard time explaining to people that legitimately licensed Dragon Ball toys that came with gun accessories were actually sold in North America by Irwin Toy back in the day. Like shit you could pick up at Toys R Us.

I'm getting overwhelmed a bit with YouTube ngl 😞

Okay I don't think Kaiba stealing Blue Eyes was worth Yugi turning Kaiba into a fucking vegetable

Half of the Yugioh cast are like peak superhuman freaks of nature who can jump out of a mach speed jets, but instead of standing on some Dragon Ball Z shit they decide to settle beef with card games for some reason.

They kinda imply that Yugi cheats like hell throughout this tournament Like that ain't the power of friendship bro you literally helped him pull that card

Jonouchi, you literally watched Yugi's grandpa get his soul cast into eternal purgatory, why is a practical card trick getting you flustered?

This is a cool party trick I guess, but does being able to know the cards in your hand while face down have literally any benefits from a game perspective?

This is some A+ aura farming

Checking in on your BlueSky mutuals kinda feels like visiting that part of your family that made it out and lives in the suburbs

Alright my collection is growing I might have a problem

I ordered some cheapo knockoff One Piece cards off AliExpress and ngl they’re not half bad

After the success of Smash 64, Bandai saw $$$ and knew they had to quickly cash in! Digimon Rumble Arena often gets credit, but One Piece: Grand Battle on the PS1 was released as likely the FIRST Smash Bros clone ever! Let’s take a look into the often overlooked debut of the Grand Battle series!

Ironheart was alright. It’s definitely held down by virtue of being a Disney MCU project that has to go down the checklist of formulaic elements before it can try something new.

Thanks for everyone that showed up to watch me ramble lol. I've been programming my animated lip-synced avatar software for a while so glad it was able to work.

Testing my Live streaming setup on Youtube if y'all want to check it out!

Honestly while I know black-and-white pages are a staple of Japanese manga, I fuck with colored manga heavy. Probably my preferred way to read a lot of series in my opinion.

Feels like a "3D Model rips from Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butoden on the Nintendo DS" type of day

Finally finished the Marine Ford Arc. I can't understate how much the arc improves once they finally make it to the fucking plaza. Felt like they were running towards that shit forever 😂

Alright Marine Ford arc is going on 1.2x speed cuz if I have to watch Koby's backstory one more time i'm going to jump off something real tall

Life has made it a bit hard to crank out a good video, hopefully I have time this week to edit

I'm 100% a casual normie One Piece fan so maybe this is a tired topic but anyone see the parallels between these two characters?

While White Beard's aura farming makes sense (he couldn't take the entire navy by himself and him going down would kill the morale of his entire crew) it is funny watching him aura farm on his ship for countless episodes

I love how much of the Marine Ford Arc is just a Devil Fruit Show & Tell

70s manga deserves love too

This is how Vegeta saw them walking out of the RoSaT

They running back the One Piece vs Dragon Ball animation debates on Twitter I need a break

Low-Poly PS1 trunks is actually pretty swaggy They should’ve made a FF7 style RPG with these models 😤

Behold! Low-Poly Super Vegito!

Real talk what are the best Dragon Ball comic parodies? I feel like people don’t draw them anymore. Not counting official ones like Dragon Ball SD of course.

Got a mini monitor for my mini SNES 😎

Piccolo Jr is in disguise as Dhalsim lol

Chi-Chi reappears in the Piccolo Jr. Arc as “Chun-Li”, along with Terry Bogard and a host of other fighting game characters.

Alright for this week’s vid I’m extracting a bunch of deliciously low-poly 3D models from the PlayStation 1 game Dragon Ball: Final Bout! DuckStation’s “3D Screenshot” functionality essentially allows you to take any PlayStation scene and turn it into an OBJ (with some caveats)!

In the Spanish parody Dragon Fall, Roshi’s Turtle is apparently now a Ninja Turtle

Started to finish up extracting meshes from Dragon Ball GT: Final Bout! How did SS4 Goku turn out? You can check them out here as I finish them: p3d.in/u/GoldenPort...

Me when someone skips reading OG Dragon Ball vs me skipping a shit ton of One Piece episodes cuz I got bored

I need to start posting here more so I can get my following off of twitter

Correct me if I’m wrong, but DBZ in North America was rated TV-Y7 when it was airing on Cartoon Network in the 90s right? I don’t think it was rated PG until the uncut release?

Tao Pai Pai has so much sauce and yet is missing from most Dragon Ball fighting rosters

Saved up enough to buy a Steam Deck but I know the minute I buy one a Steam Deck 2 is gonna release
