Dragonball Af-Comic

Dragonball AF Drawn and contributed by “Manic”

This section is dedicated to anything and everything produced solely by Manic, pertaining to Dragonball AF.

Super Saiyan 4 Gohan
Manic’s favorite of the three screenshot images he’s produced so far. A better mouth was used partway through, which explains why he goes from looking tired, to smiling.

A crappy super Saiyan 5 Goku (or Gohan?) attempt
Yeah, I have no idea who this is. Just drew somebody and attempted to make a more “refined” version of super Saiyan 4, but failed miserably. Needless to say, this is the worst of the three screenshot images.

Super Saiyan 5 Gogeta
This was doodled from scratch in Microsoft paint, using a mouse. Once the drawing was finished, Animation Shop 3.0 was used to modify the lineart (for easier coloring), but never got around to coloring it. The proportions for this picture suck (mainly, his freakishly skinny waist and very long legs), but nothing’s perfect, right?

Characters

This is a list of every character featured in Dragonball AF, and a little bit of information about them HOW THEY ARE IN AF. This is all based off of rumors, of course, so unfortunately there’s no way to find every character’s individual roles for every summary, since new ones are being written all the time. Only the major ones are included.

Alakaz
Alakaz is the main villain of Dragonball AF movie #1, “Borunks’ Revenge”. He is the son of Babidi, and as such, the movie is centered around his cronies doing the dirty work for him. Alakaz eventually battles Borunks (who is the fusion of Broly and Trunks), but is killed when they defuse and plow through his stomache simultaneously, and blast him apart from behind.
Picture: none

Android #8
Android 8 is absorbed by perfect Cell, which then allows him to become “super perfect”. This occured while Android #8 was spectating the impending match between super Saiyan 5 Goku and perfect Cell. Aside from that, Android #8 is mentioned in no other summaries.
Picture: none

Android #16
One summary mentions Android #16 being wished back to life, but nothing more is said about him after that. Aside from that little bit, he is completely unheard of in Dragonball AF, and isn’t even mentioned anywhere else at all.
Picture: none

Android #17
Android 17 at one point was resurrected. He was pure (I don’t know if he was just like this, or if they wished for that as well), and his power transcended Super Android #17’s, but at the same time, he looked like he normally does.
Picture: none

Android #18
Android 18 doesn’t play much of a role in any of the summaries. In one of them however, Goku (who had the Eternal Dragon’s wish-granting capabilities) made into her a full-fledged human, so she could live the rest of her life as one.
Picture: none

Android #22

Android #22 only exists as an image, and has not been mentioned in any writings that I know of. Android #22 is a female machine created by the Red Ribbon Army, designed to replicate Vegeta’s attack style, right down to the super Saiyan transformations (or so I would assume, since the picture mentions it having Saiyan DNA).

Picture:

Baby
Baby himself is never mentioned in any of the summaries. However, there is a picture of Baby infused with Broly, under the name “Broby” so I am including him in this list anyway.
Picture: none

Baby’s descendant
This descendant’s name was never mentioned in the brief summary that he was the primary villain of. Baby’s descendant arrives from a space ship and makes quick work of Gotan and Diri. Diri is killed, but Gotan pretends to die and barely survives. After waking up from unconsciousness, King Kai speaks to Gotan, and reveals that Baby’s descendant plans on opening a portal between earth and Hell so he can absorb with all of Goku’s old enemies, and destroy the Saiyans once and for all. This story never reaches a conclusion however, so we are left in the dark as to whatever happened with Baby’s descendant, Gotan, and Diri.
Picture: none

Bardock
According to one of the summaries, Bardock is eventually brought back, and trains with Goku on earth after becoming a super Saiyan. In another one, Goku and Vegeta meet Bardock and king Vegeta on a planet for a brief time while searching for the dragonballs. Aside from those two instances, Bardock isn’t mentioned anywhere else, to my knowledge. There are a couple of image edits that show Bardock as a super Saiyan 4, however.

Picture:

Boronks
NOT to be confused with “Borunks”. Supposedly, Boronks was the one to comes to earth and emerges as the first super Saiyan 5, but this character seems to have been drowned out by Xicor, who does the exact thing, but is just more well-known. I’ve only heard rumors about Boronks. I’ve never seen a summary mentioning him at all. This character is probably a simple misperception by someone who saw Borunks, but confused his role with Xicor’s.
Picture: none

Borunks
Appearing in Dragonball AF movie #1, “Borunks’ Revenge” and one of the other summaries, Borunks’ character has remained consistant throughout both of his appearences. Borunks is the fusion of Broly, and Trunks. In the movie, Borunks intentionally defuses to evade a fatal slash and ram through Alakaz’s stomache. In the summary, Borunks is eventually beaten by Xicor’s oozaru form, and becomes seperated after being stomped into the ground.
Picture: none

Bra
Although Bra herself is rarely mentioned, even for a short time in any summary, there have been a few pictures of her. One of them depicts her in several super Saiyan forms, and another shows a fusion between Pan and herself. In the summary she’s mentioned in, she is the wife of a man named Takeru, and eventually they bare a child named Bulma Jr. The fusion between Bra and Pan is never mentioned at all, in any summary or episode list.

Picture:

Bricor
Bricor, or “Bricer” as spelled in the summary, is a fusion between Broly and Xicor. The only thing mentioned about this fusion, is that it can transform to “SSJ5 Ascended”.
Picture: none

Broby
This character is not mentioned in any summary or episode list. The only thing of this apparent fusion that exists, is a single picture, which is edited from a Broly image.
Picture:

Broly
Broly plays two different roles, out of three summaries he plays a large part in. The more prodominant role of the two however, is Broly being a good guy and fusing with Xicor. Another role he takes is being a super Saiyan 2, and killing Goku by catching him off guard after Goku finishes Raditz and regresses back to his non-super Saiyan state. There have also been pictures created that show Broly as a super Saiyan 4, but this form of his hasn’t been mentioned anywhere in writing.
Picture:

Bulma
Bulma is a surprisingly popular character in the summaries. In one of them, she even learns how to perform the Big Bang attack. In another, she arrives just in the nick of time and uses her machine to invoke Trunks’ super Saiyan 4 transformation. She’s also been written as elderly, and near the end of her lifespan.
Picture: none

Bulma Jr.
Bulma Jr. is the offspring of Bra and Takeru. Nothing is told of her character, however.
Just that she’s their child.
Picture: none

Buu
Being pushed to the sidelines like Frieza and Cell, Buu only makes a small appearence on the episode lists, where he comes back, but is again destroyed shortly after. Although being pushed aside in all of the writings he’s appeared in, there are pictures of Buu fused with Frieza, and even one of him fused with Baby, Vegeta, Frieza AND Cell.
Picture

Cell
Cell is one of the many “smack-around” villains of the series, occasionally escaping Hell, but getting sent back there shortly after. His largest event was absorbing Android #8 and becoming super perfect Cell, but oddly enough, he was never mentioned after that. He was just forgotten entirely, and didn’t even get to fight in his new form. Poor guy.
Picture: none

ChiChi
Overlooked as always, Chichi rarely does anything more than get a half-sentence of mention in whatever she appears in. Her biggest moment in any of the Dragonball AF summaries, was having Goku wish her youth, and getting changed back to the age of twenty as a result. In another summary, she was an elderly grandmother who was barely even alive.
Picture: none

Coolza
Mentioned only once, at the end of a rather short summary. Coolza is the fusion of Frieza and Cooler, via the fusion dance.
Picture:

Diri
Diri is a descendant of the Son family. However, she is quickly killed at the beginning of a short, unfinished summary, and thus, we don’t know whatever happens to her.
Picture: none

Dende
Dende is another one of the severely overlooked characters, and is only used as means of healing the injured Z fighters from time to time. His only contribution to the storyline is learning to fight and becoming a Z Warrior himself, but this was only mentioned in an episode list, and in a power level list, where he fights an evil clone of himself (I think).
Picture: none

Evil Gogeta
Only mentioned in a rather sloppy episode list, evil Gogeta is basically just.. evil Gogeta. Nothing at all is explained of him; his name just appears in the episodes. It is known that he battles Gogeta Jr., and the original Gogeta himself. The one who finally defeats evil Gogeta is never mentioned specifically, but one would assume it was the original Gogeta.
Picture: none

Evil Goku
Evil Goku is rumored to have been an evil intoxication of Goku himself, after being overwhelmed by his super Saiyan 6 power. However, one summary says it was super Saiyan 7 that caused Goku to become evil.
Picture: none

Freezer
A varied name for the Frieza/Cooler fusion. Freezer is said to have been extremely powerful (as most DBZ/GT villains are). He was able to beat super Saiyan 6 Vegeta with no effort, push Trunks into going super Saiyan 2 AND 3, and even suprass Gogetrunks in power (Goku+vegeta+Trunks fusion). He was finally overpowered and beaten when Gogetrunks fused with Bardock, although the way he was killed is never specified.
Picture: none

Frieza
Playing the role as the typical recyclable DBZ villain as always, Frieza’s only breakout appearences are when he would fuse with Cooler to create either Coolza, or Freezer, depending on which of the two summaries their fusion happened in.
Picture: none

Gogeta
Gogeta plays part in a lot of the summaries, and even has two spin-off villain copies of himself in two different writings; in an episode list, there was an evil Gogeta, and in one summary, there was an evil Gogeta clone. More often than not, he dominates the battle, but winds up unwillingly defusing right before the victory is assured. In other scenarios however, he has battled evenly, but defused because of time running out, or simply got beaten into the ground. He’s played the hero as well, and also was probably the one who beat the clone of himself.
Picture: none

Gogeta Jr.
The fusion dance result of Goku Jr. and Vegeta Jr. Gogeta Jr.’s only major appearence in an episode list, where he battles the evil Gogeta clone, and even ascends to super Saiyan 5.
Picture: none

Gogeta clone
The Gogeta clone was somewhat of an interesting villain. Created from the DNA of the original Gogeta by Jerry Gero Jr., the Gogeta clone is also referred to as #7. Because he was born of Gogeta’s DNA, and not Goku or Vegeta’s, the Gogeta clone was permanent, and had no issues of ever defusing in mid-battle. Easily overpowering the original Gogeta, and downing super Saiyan 5 Goku after a long struggle, the Gogeta clone’s fate is never revealed, as the story had abruptly ended, just as Vegeta was about to reveal his “true power” (super Saiyan 5, assumably) and stall him so Goku could create a Spirit Bomb. I’m sure if the battle had concluded, it would have ended just as the Kid Buu fight did.
Picture: none

Gogetrunks
Gogetrunks is only mentioned briefly in one summary. He wasn’t as powerful as Freezer, and had to fuse with Bardock to top him.
Picture: none

Gohan
Gohan, as with Dragonball GT, is usually brushed aside and doesn’t play a major role in any of the summaries. More often than not, he winds up fusing with Goku, and rarely plays a useful role by just himself. There have been pictures depicting Gohan as a super Saiyan 4 and beyond, but this is rarely even touched upon by the summaries.
Picture: ,

Gohan clone
An evil clone of Gohan, created by Jerry Gero Jr., using a sample of Gohan’s DNA. This clone was originally designed to be stronger than Gohan, but thanks to the wish Gohan had granted by Goku to use super Saiyan and mystic Saiyan at once, Gohan was able to destroy this clone with a Kamehameha Wave.
Picture: none

Goku
As he’s done so many times in the past, Goku takes center stage throughout nearly every one of the Dragonball AF summaries. Goku easily has the most varied roles out of any character, but most typically, he emerges right in the nick of time as a super Saiyan 5 or beyond. Throughout many of the writings featuring him, Goku has:

- Transformed into a super Saiyan 5, 6, 7, and even 8 and 9.
- Became intoxicated by the power of super Saiyan 6 (and 7), and turned evil
- Became so powerful, he had no choice but to self-destruct
- Became fused with the Eternal Dragon, and had the ability to grant wishes

And that’s just to name a few. Goku has also simply written off as dead, and had the story continue with his descendants being the main characters.
Picture: none

Goku clone
Created by Jerry Gero Jr., the Goku clone was stronger than that of a super Saiyan 4. However, during his fight, he was destroyed by the real Goku’s Kamehameha x10. This clone was also known as “#1″.
Picture: none

Goku Jr.
Goku Jr., by some, is rumored to be the real achiever of super Saiyan 5, and not his ancestor, Goku himself. In some of the summaries, Goku Jr. fused with Vegeta Jr. to create Gogeta Jr., who had the abilities to go super Saiyan 5 and beyond.
Picture: none

Goshin
If my memory serves, Goshin isn’t spoken of in any of the summaries that I know of, and the only evidence of his very existence is a picture of him.
Picture:

Gotan
Gotan is a long-time descendant of the Son family. His brief summary spotlight takes place over 700 years after the end of Dragonball GT. Gotan is the older brother of Diri, who is his little sister. Diri is killed by Baby’s descendant, and this pushes Gotan to go super Saiyan 2. However, his strength is not enough, and he too is felled by Baby’s descendant. Instead of dying, Gotan feigned death and barely survived. He awoke to King Kai telling him of Baby’s descendant’s real intentions, and his plan of absorbing all of Goku’s old enemies and wiping out the Saiyans for good. This story never comes to a conclusion however, since it abruptly comes to a halt after King Kai’s warning. The writer probably lost interest.
Picture:

Goten
Goten is a severely overlooked character in almost all of the summaries he plays a part in. The only times he even has a featured role, is when he fuses with Trunks to create an adult Gotenks. Adult Gotenks is usually able to go to super Saiyan 4, as well.
Picture:Goten clone
Goten Clone As with all of the other clones, the Goten clone, again sharing the same fate as most of the others, is killed by the one that he was cloned from. He is eventually felled by a fatal kick/Kamehameha combination, dealt by Goten himself, whom had emerged as a super Saiyan 2, thanks to the wish Goku granted him.
Picture: none

Gotenks
To my knowledge, Gotenks followed in the footsteps of his younger self; he often surprised everybody by reaching new levels, but never actually defeating the main villain. One of the more idiocally-written summaries mentions Gotenks being the fusion of super Saiyan 5 Goku, and super Saiyan 5 Goten.
Picture:

Gouyky
Nothing at all is said about Gouyky; his name is simply on the episode list. Gouyky is the fusion of Groudy, and Jonyky.
Picture: none

Hantenks
Hantenks is one of those characters who is fabricated from the mind of a true retard. Hantenks is mentioned in only one summary; he is the tri-fusion of super Saiyan 5 Goku, super Saiyan 5 Goten, and super Saiyan 5 Gohan. Hantenks battles fiercely with Boronks, but then he takes the Potara earrings off and defuses and talks peacefully with Boronks, who then becomes their ally.
Picture: none

Hercule
Hercule plays virtually no role in any of the summaries. The only mention of him I can remember right offhand is from one of the episode lists, “Videl visiting Mr. Satan”.
Picture: none

Hitsochani
Hitsochani is a Kleenex villain I created to add more spice to a revised episode list I also made. He is mentioned nowhere else at all. He is the fusion of Hitsorashi and Motchani, and is later out-smarted by Gogeta. Hitsorashi and Motchani mimicked Goku and Vegeta’s fusion dance, but his fusion broke before Gogeta’s did, and they were quickly crushed.
Picture: none

Imbroly
Imbroly is mentioned once, in one summary, and nothing about him is told, just that he is Broly’s brother. He fuses with somebody named Kentoratchi, and the fusion (which isn’t named), is quickly killed by super Saiyan 7 Goku’s Ultra Spirit Bomb.
Picture: none

Jago
As with a lot of characters, Jago only plays part in one summary. Jago is the younger brother of Trunks, whom has given him his sword, but also was slain by one of Janaba’s henchmen. Trunks’ death pushes Jago into going super Saiyan for the first time, which gives him the power to kill Janaba and his minions.
Picture: none

Janaba
Janaba was killed by Jago after he became a super Saiyan for the first time. That’s all that’s even said of this character. The summary Janaba was in is INCREDIBLY vague.
Picture: none

Jerry Gero Jr.
Jerry Gero Jr. is the grandson of Dr. Gero. He is responsible for the many Z warrior clones that appear in only one of the summaries. He even created a clone of Gogeta himself, who had more power than super Saiyan 5 Goku. Jerry Gero Jr.’s fate is never decided, since the only summary he appears in stops suddenly, and remains unfinished.
Picture: none

Jeannine
Jeannine is one of the several warriors that Alakaz had control over in “Movie 1: Boronks’ Revenge”. Jeannine is the only one of Alakaz’s unwilling servants who isn’t slaughtered by the Z warriors; she instead flies off in the end with Broly, whom she plans to marry.
Picture: none

Karo
Karo is a spin-off of the little-mentioned “Karoenisch” character from one of the episode lists. In my list, Karo is a bitter Tuffle, who uses his technological know-how to sneak the black-star dragonballs from the lookout, and have a wish to increase his power a thousand fold granted. He is later overwhelmed and destroyed by the emerging super Saiyan 5 Goku.
Picture: none

Karoenisch
No detail whatsoever of Karoenisch is ever disclosed. His name only appears on one of the episode lists, during the “Super Goku Saga”. Karoenisch was probably killed by double attack from Gogeta, and Gogeta Jr.
Picture: none

Kentoratchi
No details of Kentoratchi are even mentioned, just that he fuses with the equally elusive Imbroly, and the nameless fusion is killed by super Saiyan 7 Goku’s Ultra Spirit Bomb.
Picture: none

Kuja
Kuja is half Saiyan, half beast (no type specified). No storyline or anything remotely interesting is told of this character, just that he is killed by the resulting “Family Fusion” of Jago, Trunks and Vegeta by being blasted into space and disintegrated.
Picture: none

Krillin
Poor Krillin. He’s overlooked worse in Dragonball AF summaries, than he was in Dragonball GT. In fact, the only event Krillin parttakes in that is worth mentioning, is having youth granted to him by Goku, and his battle with the Krillin clone that Jerry Gero Jr. created. Krillin didn’t even get to kill his own clone like everybody else did, either!
Picture: none

Krillin clone
Created by Jerry Gero Jr., the Krillin clone fell to the mercy of the Z warriors, but he was immediately destroyed by the Gogeta clone, who had blasted him to pieces from above to make his grand entrance onto the scene.
Picture: none

Laetacia
Laetacia was one of Alakaz’s servants. She was quickly slaughtered by Xicor, who chopped her in half with nothing but his bare arm.
Picture: none

Max
Yet another of Alakaz’s servants. Max met his end when he was punched through the stomache, then blown up by a ki blast which had been detonated inside of him by Xicor.
Picture: none

Motchani
Motchani originated, and never transcended being just a faceless villain in the episode lists. In the original list, Motchani’s death is never specified upon; in my version of the list, Motchani is one of the two victims of Gogeta’s Double Dragon Fist.
Picture: none

Nomanisch
Nomanisch only appears on some of the power level lists, so no details of him are at all mentioned, except that he is the fusion of Nomaky and Zuranisch.
Picture: none

Nomaykygosch
Nomaykygosch is the fusion of Gouyky and Nomanisch, who are each the resulting fusions of two other characters, making Nomaykygosch the combination of four different characters. No character details of Nomaykygosch are specified, since he’s only featured in a power level list.
Picture: none

Okster
Okster is yet another of the many characters who is only featured in power level lists, and/or episode lists. In the episode list, Okster is killed by Gogeta, but eventually escapes from Hell in a later saga. The one who kills Okster again is never specified.
Picture: none

Oscar
Oscar is one of Alakaz’s servants, in the “Movie 1: Boronks’ Revenge” movie summary. He is later decapitated, and blown to pieces by Xicor.
Picture: none

Pikkon
Thankfully, Pikkon wasn’t entirely overlooked in Dragonball AF. He played a small role in one of the summaries, where he killed Babidi in Hell, while Babidi was trying to take control of Piccolo (who was on Earth at the time).
Picture: none

Potoscy
Potoscy is yet another faceless originative from the episode and power level lists. In the episode list, he gives up shortly after engaging in battle with Goku and Vegeta.
Picture: none

Princess Lila
Princess Lila is the female god who was attempting to seduce Goku on the unnamed planet that he visited to train on because of the immense gravity (x1,000). Goku declined, but Princess Lila eventually had her way with Goku by making love with him in his dreams, and getting herself pregnant. Approximately 120 years later, she gave birth to Xicor, the Saiyan/god hybrid. In the only summary that her name is mentioned in, she was killed by Vegeta’s triple Big Bang attack while everybody was assembled on Kami’s lookout. She was playing friendly with the Z warriors while Xicor collected the dragonballs, but she planned to make an evil wish.

Piccolo figured out Lila’s plan, and she was stopped before it could be carried out.
Picture: none

Shella
The only mention of Shella, is her being Trunks’ daughter. Nothing else at all is specified about her, except that she was wished back to life by the dragonballs.
Picture: none

Snowsay
Snowsay was one of Alakaz’s servants. He was later blown to pieces by Vegeta after he tried attacking Bulma.
Picture: none

Takeru
Takeru is only mentioned in one Dragonball AF summary. He is Bra’s husband, and has a daughter, named Bulma Jr.
Picture: none

Tiencha
Tiencha is the fusion of Tien and Yamcha. Nothing that I know of mentions anything specifically about “Tiencha”, just that it’s the Tien/Yamcha fusion. For some information about the variation of this fusion.

Picture: none

Trunks
Trunks plays many parts. Whether he be an older sibling who passes his sword onto a younger brother (Jago), reaching super Saiyan 4 to assist in a battle, or flat-out returning from the future with evil intentions, you can bet Trunks will be quite abundant in Dragonball AF. Trunks has also been pictured as a super Saiyan 2, 3, 4, and even as high as 7.
Picture: none

Trunks clone
As with all of the other clones, the Trunks clone was created yb Jerry Gero Jr. Also known as #7, the Trunks clone was destroyed by the real Trunks’ Big Bang attack.
Picture: none

Vaiki
Very little is told of Vaiki, and she isn’t involved with any of the summaries (that I am aware of). All that’s known is that she is Vegeta Jr.’s little sister, and that she has the ability to go super Saiyan.
Picture: none

Vegeta
Sadly, Vegeta’s role hasn’t changed much. He’s typically written as still straying behind Goku and always trying to “catch up” to him. More often that, he simply fuses with Goku. It isn’t very often that Vegeta plays a major role by himself in any of the summaries, although he is sometimes teamed up with Goku (as they were in Buu’s stomache). Vegeta has been written as going super Saiyan 5 right after Goku did, and in some of the more retarded summaries, he reached levels beyond even that.
Picture: none

Vegeta clone
One of Jerry Gero Jr.’s many clones. The Vegeta clone was known as #6, and he was later destroyed by a fierce kick from Goku.
Picture: none

Vegetto
Vegetto is surprisingly overlooked. In fact, I can’t recall him ever being mentioned, except ONCE in an episode list. The episode was called “Gotenks and Vegetto.” However, there have been a few screenshot edits of Vegetto, so, he’s still in the minds of some Dragonball AF fans. Either that, or they were trying to change who he was.
Picture: none

Vegetunks
Vegetunks is one of the Dragonball AF icons; the infamous Vegetunks image has been viewed by probably every Dragonball AF enthusiast in existence. Despite Vegetunks’ fame because of his pictures, he’s very rarely even written about. I’ve only seen him mentioned in one of the rumors. This is a shame, too. Vegetunks would be an awesome character.
Picture: none

Videl
Videl falls into the same role that so many other DBZ girls have. She merely becomes the human broodmare for one of the Saiyans. One of the rumors mentioned Videl and Gohan having a son, but his name was never mentioned (Goshin, perhaps? That’s my guess).
Picture: none

Xicor
Xicor is one of the more well-known characters in the Dragonball AF universe, and one of the few who doesn’t have a mass abundance of different roles. Xicor is best known as being the third son of Goku, who was conceived when Princess Lila seduced Goku and made love with him in his dreams to get herself pregnant. Xicor spent 120 years in the womb before he was born as a super Saiyan 5 god… thing (I guess). He later travelled to Earth in search of training by his father, Goku (who was still quite spry after over 120 years, apparently).

In some other summaries, Xicor was on the Z warrior’s side. Most notably, was the “Movie 1: Boronks’ Revenge” movie where Xicor killed nearly all of Alakaz’s evil servants.
Picture: none

Yamchien
Yamchien has popped up a time or two throughout all of the summaries I’ve read, but his appearences were brief. In one of them, Yamcha and Tien fused with the fusion dance and faught Xicor formidably. During the short fight, Yamchien successfully pulled off a Tri-Beam and Skatter Shot, but in the end he succeeded in doing no more than pissing Xicor off, and getting himself killed.
Picture: none

Dragonball AF Summary

What is Dragonball AF? Dragonball AF is supposedly a new Dragonball series being developed in Japan. However, FUNimation wants fans to know from the official source that Dragonball GT is the last series and neither AF nor V exist. As far as we know, and Toei has confirmed this matter, there are no future plans for any continuance of the Dragonball series beyond GT. But we have heard from multiple people that Fans are making a comic called Dragonball AF and FUNimation or Toei has nothing to do with it. Whether or not it really exists or ever will, it’s still fun to think about, because of this I’ve compiled several sections for your enjoyment.

DBAF takes place around 120 years after the Frieza Saga. At this time Goku is off going from planet to planet training and he comes across one planet which looks absolutely beautiful, he goes onto this planet for training and finds that all the people there look perfect, and also the gravity is 1000 times that of earths so he figures its ideal for training for a little while. He also meets this stunningly beautiful woman there who try’s to seduce Goku however Goku resists because of his heart belonging to Chi-chi, she senses this but makes love to him in his dreams. Shortly after Goku leaves the planet and as he leaves, the planet turns into silver and it disappears totally as well as everyone who inhabited it! Since the woman was a god and created a perfect illusion for Goku she also sensed how powerful he was, she wanted to have his baby and create the ultimate being. Anyway around 120 years later she gives birth to a child named Xicer who is naturally born as a super Saiyan 5 and is 1 year old, since he is half god and half Saiyan he is the ultimate being however he is pretty much useless as he needs to be trained by someone great, his father obviously, Goku, so he goes off in search of his real father to be trained by him and become the greatest warrior in the universe from which his mother wants him to be.

More information about Dragonball AF.
300 years ago goku ,gohan died but where considered ultimate ancestors because of there power levels, goten was still live and well cause him and trunks where equal strength and granted eternal life from dende. They had all seven dragonballs plus the alfa ball. for a while and soon decided to wish back Goku, Gohan Vegeta Andriod 16 And Shella(trunks daughter) they do that but then a dude called boronks comes(ally like vegeta) and is angry he didn’t get his wish to be the strongest ever!  So then he fights goku and goku gets pounded and was on the verge of dieing again but gotten level 5 gets angry(as he does) and fuses with goten level 5 and creates Gotenks(the dude with red hair) level 5 and takes on boronks but also gets a pounding but eventully get the fusion earrings from dende and fuses also with gohan level 5 (the new created airings allows up to 3 fuses!) and creates hantenks-the ultimate version and gives boronks a pounding, then they take the airings off and calm down the talk to boronks and then eventually decide to become allies (boronks is still pretty dodgey!, like vegeta).

Here are a bunch of rumors:
1. There are 6 super saiyan levels
2. New fusion earrings wear created (fusion with up to 3 people!)
3. Goten has had a new born baby!
4. Boronks is a huge guy bigger than brolly he is a SSJ3 and is anxious to be stronger than Ancestor Goku SSJ5 but Goku still has level 6!
5. Everyone fuses and become gohnvegpandenpicclhurclegotentrunktenks.
6. Nothing is in production, and nothing is planned. There is no Dragonball AF. Most rumors of a new series come from fan manga drawn in Japan, otherwise known as “doujinshi.” Generally, these comics are very well-drawn, and can easily be mistaken for Toriyama’s work. However, they are fan-made, and are not considered a part of the DB universe.
7. It’s a Spanish comic book they are making a cartoon version for the US
8. Vegeta and Trunks Fuse
8. Gotenks goes SSJ4,

Sony PlayStation Portable-Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai

Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai (ドラゴンボールZ 真武道会, Doragon Bōru Zetto Shin Budôkai^?, Dragon Ball Z: True Tournament) is a fighting video game part of the Dragon Ball Z franchise, and was released on March 7, 2006. It was developed by Dimps. Scenario story mode is based on the events of the Dragon Ball Z movie Fusion Reborn. The players follow the events of the story in which you choose Goku and friends, including enemy characters, along the way. The choices that you make determine how the story evolves.

Another mode is the Arcade mode, a single player mode that lets you brawl against the CPU in order to fight and gain the Dragon Balls. Next is the Z trial mode, which consists of two different types of play: survival, where you fight against CPU-controlled opponents for as long as you can, and time attack, where you see how fast you can make it through a predetermined set of opponents.

Finally, there’s the Profile Card mode in which the players will have their in-game character profile cards that lists their name and power level. The player can design their own card and customize them with the items from the game’s item store.

 Gameplay

This game was developed by the producer of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi and Dimps , making this game have elements of both the Budokai series and the Sparking/Tenkaichi series. The game included a brand new technique known as the “Aura Burst” which allowed your character to move across the screen at high speed toward the opponent. When Bursting and pressing an attack button, you could dish out fast combos or blows that stun your opponent. Making long chain combos similar to the ones from Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3 was much more difficult, but blocking was made slightly easier by using the Aura Burst as a canceler. Despite most criticism, Shin Budokai’s fighting system was deeper than initially expected.

 

 Dragon Road

This is the name of the story mode in Dragon Ball Z: Shin Budokai. It’s based on the movie “Fusion Reborn”. As you move along in the story, you’ll find yourself in fights, just for friendly competition (such a fight between Goku and Krillin) or a showdown against evil. The Dragon Road mode takes you on a trip to see the Fusion Reborn in a totally revamped way. Things that were in the movie are different in the game. It starts off with Goku and his friends going out on a camping trip, but it is interrupted when a portal to Earth from hell is opened, and the dead are being brought back to life. Goku and his friends have to fight their way through, from the plains of Earth, to the ruins of hell. The Dragon Road consists of 5 chapters.

 

 Training Mode

In this mode, the player can practice battles with the CPU. You have to pick two characters to fight with, choose the battlefield, and set your health, starting ki, and check energy.

• Health: The amount of health you wish to begin the fight with, which you can also set for the CPU. (They don’t have to be the same.) There are 7 bars of health, each a different color.
• Starting Ki: How much energy you want to begin the battle with. You can give yourself an advantage by setting the CPU’s Ki energy to low. There are 7 bars of Ki.
• Check Energy: The amount of Ki needed to teleport behind the enemy to dodge his/her attack. For example, the original ki consumption for teleporting is 3 ki bars. The higher you make it, the more ki it consumes. The lower, the less ki it takes.

 

 Network Battle Mode

This is the mode were you can have wireless multiplayer battles with your friends. Here, you can also add friends to your Profile Card, and view theirs as well. Every battle you win will raise your power level. (Shown on the main menu, on the dragon radar.) It will also increase your Victory Ratio, which is displayed on your Profile Card.

 

 Arcade

In this mode, you select your character, and head out to battle. The objective of this mode is to collect all the dragon balls. Although, you don’t get any wishes of your own, the characters ask the eternal dragon for something they want. You’ll fight 10 opponents in a row, and at certain points in the Arcade Mode, you’ll come across an opponent you’ll have a dialog scene with, this happens when a character is confronted with another that it has a relationship with from the anime or manga ex.(Goku and Vegeta’s long time rivalry)

 

Time Attack

In this mode, located in Z trial, you’ll be asked to fight certain enemies as fast as possible. There are seven courses in total.

• Course 1: Challenge Goku’s eternal friends and rivals!
• Course 2: Stops the rivals and enemies that stand in Goku’s way!
• Course 3: Burning soul behind a cool demeanor!
• Course 4: Even if you get beaten, keep training and get stronger!
• Course 5: The warriors who’ve exceeded their limits!
• Course 6: Fight for future peace!
• Course 7: The legendary Super Saiyans Fighting Spirits!

 

 Survival

This is a mode where you pick your character, and fight non-stop enemies, until you lose. After a certain amount of wins, your health will not regenerate fully.

 

 Profile Card

Here, you can create a special ID card that is used during Network Battles. It records your data, battles won, battles lost, Survival Records, Time Attacks, Rankings in Dragon Road, Power Level, Friends, Money, and your Victory Ratio. You can also buy stamps from the shop to customize it to your liking.

Sony PlayStation 2-Dragon Ball Z: Budokai

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai, released as Dragon Ball Z (ドラゴンボールZ, Doragon Bōru Zetto) in Japan, is a fighting video game that was released for the PlayStation 2 on December 3, 2002 in North America and for the GameCube in North America on October 28, 2003. The game was released in Japan by Bandai on the PlayStation 2 in February 13, 2003, while the Nintendo GameCube release was brought out near the end of the year, on November 28, 2003. It was developed by Dimps and published by Atari. As the GameCube version was released almost a year after the PlayStation 2 version, the opportunity was taken to improve the graphics using cel-shading.

Gameplay

 

Skills

Each character can be optionally customised by using a 7-slot skill tray; players may choose up to 7 skills and assign them to a fighter. Some skills can take up multiple slots. These skills can be used in “World Tournament” Mode and Versus Mode. (You can’t use skills on Story Mode, only the ones the character already has.) Skills may be purchased from Mr. Popo with the prize money from the World Tournament mode.

There are three types of skills: Special Moves, which include skills such as the Kamehameha Wave and the ability to become Super Saiyan; Physical, which includes such skills as Zanku Fist; and Equipment, which provide boosts such as increased defense. One can also purchase Dragon Balls, and when you have all of them, Oolong appears and summons Shenron, giving the player a choice of 3 Breakthrough capsules; these allow a player to use all of a character’s moves and abilities at once.

 

Story mode

The Story Mode consists of 3D cutscenes adapted from the series (though more close to the manga than the anime). Unlike later Budokai games, the story mode is similar to most other fighting games (in which cutscenes occur between battles). The story mode covers 3 Sagas – Saiyan, Namek, Android – and the player automatically collects capsules (or sometimes Dragon Balls) at the end of each battle. Depending on which episode is being played, the playable characters are Goku, Gohan, Piccolo and Vegeta. At the end of every saga there are bonus what if episodes, and one plays as the main villain of that saga; Vegeta, Frieza and Cell respectively.

• In Vegeta’s storyline, Vegeta: Saiyan Prince, Vegeta and Goku then duel, and Vegeta defeats him with minimum effort, driven by the desire to avenge Nappa. Then Krillin and Gohan turn up, and Vegeta beats them separately. After the battle, Vegeta speaks to himself for a minute while Yajirobe sneaks up behind him. Vegeta hears Yajirobe, and, impressed by Yajirobe’s bravery, offers him to become his next pupil. Yajirobe refuses, stating that he doesn’t want to end up like Nappa. Enraged at being reminded of Nappa’s death, Vegeta screams in anger, and becomes a Super Saiyan. The episode ends.

• In Frieza’s storyline, Rampaging Frieza, Frieza successfully beats Goku, Piccolo, Vegeta, Krillin and Gohan in battle. He then succeeds in wishing for immortality. Blowing up Namek, Frieza returns to his spaceship, deciding to destroy Earth next. The episode ends.

• In Cell’s storyline, A Cold-Blooded Assassin, Cell attempts to absorb 17 and 18, and successfully beats 16 in battle. He then absorbs 17, but while attempting to absorb 18, Krillin jumps in the way, causing Cell to accidentally absorb Krillin, shrink to Krillin’s size & colors, and lose a lot of power. Yamcha and Tien then show up to challenge the weakened Cell. He just manages to beat Yamcha, but he is then killed by Tien. The real Cell then wakes up in the middle of the Cell Ring, realizing that it was a dream & that ten days waiting for the tournament is a long time to wait. The episode ends.

 

World tournament

The World Tournament allows players to compete against a computer-controlled character in a Martial Arts Tournament. The Prizes are the following:

• Novice: 10,000 Zeni
• Adept: 30,000 Zeni
• Advance: 50,000 Zeni

 

 Dueling

Dueling mode allows a player to fight a computer-controlled character at a preset skill level, or two human players to fight each other using any custom skills. A player may also watch a fight between two computer-controlled fighters.

Sony PlayStation 2-Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2, released as Dragon Ball Z 2 (ドラゴンボールZ2, Doragon Bōru Zetto Tsū^?) in Japan, is a video game based upon the popular anime series, Dragon Ball Z. Budokai 2 is a sequel to Dragon Ball Z: Budokai and was developed by Dimps and published by Atari for the Sony PlayStation 2 and Nintendo GameCube. It was released in North America on December 4, 2003. In 2004 its sequel Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3 was released. As the GameCube version was released sometime after the PlayStation 2 version (December 15, 2004), the opportunity was taken to improve the graphics slightly and add new costumes. Japan received the game on February 5, 2004 for the PlayStation 2 from Bandai. There was no Japanese version of the GameCube version, although the European GameCube version did feature the Japanese voiceover.

Budokai 2 is a fighting game with cel-shaded graphics to mirror the look and feel of the combat in the series. In order to experience the full potential of the game, a Memory Card is required to obtain and edit skills, and create custom characters.

 Gameplay

Where Dragon Ball Z: Budokai only had characters up to the Cell Games Saga, Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2 has characters up to the Kid Buu Saga. It also removed 4 characters, Zarbon, Dodoria, Kid Gohan, and Android 19. Other differences are that Frieza and Cell no longer need to charge up to their most powerful forms as they are already in those forms. Unlike the previous Budokai game Goku and Vegeta can now charge up to their highest forms used in Dragon Ball Z. There are also new characters such as Tiencha, Gokule, and Kuriza (although Kuriza is just a costume for Frieza in the Japanese version of the game).

 

 Skills

As in Budokai 1, each character is able to be customised by using a 7-slot skill tray. Players may choose up to 7 skills and give them to a fighter. Skills can take from one to seven slots. There are three types of skills, Special Moves which includes skills such as the Kamehameha and Super Saiyan, Physical which includes such skills as Super Dragon Fist and Zanku Fist, and Equipment which includes skills such as Senzu Bean and Bulma’s Armour like in season 3 ep 4.

 

 Story mode

Story mode in Budokai 2 consists of a board game-like adventure called Dragon World. In this mode, you play as Goku and along with one or more allies, travel around the 9 different levels defeating enemies, and collecting items such as money, capsules or Dragon Balls. After you complete the game, if you have collected all seven Dragon Balls, you are able to make a “wish” which lets you choose one from three special capsules, which include Breakthrough capsules (these allow a player to use all of a character’s moves and abilities at once), Fusion capsules, and Bulma costumes.

 

 World Tournament

The World Tournament allows players to compete against the computer or up to 8 players in a Martial Arts Tournament. If more than one human player is present no prize money is available, but with only one human player the following prizes can be won:

• Novice: 10,000 Zeni
• Adept: 30,000 Zeni
• Advance: 50,000 Zeni

If a player reaches second place, he/she will win half the prize money.

 

 Dueling

Dueling mode allows a player to fight the computer at a preset skill level, or two human players to fight each other using any custom skills. A player may also watch a fight between two computer fighters.

 

 Edit skills

Made up of three sections, the Skill Shop, character editing, and instructions. A player may edit skills on either memory card.

Aside from Dragon World, the Skill Shop is the place to get your skill capsules. Bulma will wear a different costume depending on how many the player has collected in Dragon World.

 

 Japanese version extras

The Japanese version, Dragon Ball Z: 2, contained references to the self-parody of Dragon Ball, Neko Majin, including an extra level in Dragon World, two extra costumes for Frieza (Kuriza and Majin Frieza), one for Cell (Majin Cell), one for Piccolo (Cape and turban), and one for Goku (battle-damage). Piccolo and Goku’s third outfits, however, are not exclusive to the Japanese version; there was also the Z difficulty level, both of which were added to the GameCube version of Budokai 2 and all versions of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3.

Sony PlayStation 2-Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3, released as Dragon Ball Z 3 (ドラゴンボールZ3, Doragon Bōru Zetto Surī) in Japan, is a video game based on the popular anime series Dragon Ball Z and was developed by Dimps and published by Atari for the PlayStation 2. It was released on November 16, 2004 in North America through standard release and a Limited Edition release, which included a DVD featuring behind the scenes looks on the game’s development. Europe soon saw a release on December 3, 2004. In Fall 2005, Europe obtained a new edition which included character models not available in the North American release as well as a few items and the ability to switch the voices over to Japanese. Japan later saw a release from Bandai on February 10, 2005 and also included the extras that the North American release did not have. Soon after, the Greatest Hits version in North America contained the extra features, including the ability to play with the Japanese voices.

Budokai 3 is a fighting game with cel-shaded graphics to mirror the look and feel of the combat in the series.

 Gameplay

Where Budokai 1 had characters up to the Android Saga and Budokai 2 had characters up to the Kid Buu Saga, Budokai 3 has characters from Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT and Dragon Ball Z movies, such as Cooler, Broly, Bardock, Super Saiyan 4 Goku, Gogeta, Kid Goku, Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta, Uub and Omega Shenron.

 

 New mechanics

• Ki – The Ki system is completely revamped from the past two Budokai games. Each character now has a base Ki level, Ki will increase/decrease slowly until it is at base Ki level. If Ki is higher than the base Ki, then a bonus in attack is acquired, and defense is decreased the further it goes below the base Ki. Transformations, now instead of draining Ki slowly, can increase base Ki, increase base attack power, and exaggerate said increases/decreases in stats when above/below base Ki. Additionally, auras have been redone, and now look very close to the auras seen on the anime.

 

• Transformation – In the previous two games, a transformation gradually drained ki, and being knocked down with less than the ki level needed to transform would revert the transformation. In Budokai 3, a transformation will instead increase the base ki level, and is only reverted if a character is hit with less than one ki gauge, or if they allow hyper mode to run out. Additionally, some transformations (like Cell, Broly and Freeza’s) are irreversible.
• Beam Struggle – If two beam attacks collide, instead of canceling each other out, a beam struggle is activated. The two characters rotate control sticks in order to push the two beams to one character or the other.
• Fatigue – A new fatigue meter is added to the HUD, it increases during battle. It’s most important during an ultimate attack, but if fatigue is maxed out, a character will become exhausted if knocked down with less than one Ki gauge full.
• Dodging – By pressing guard just before being attacked, the character will dodge the attack completely, at the cost of a little ki
• Teleport Counters – Before any attack connects, a character can teleport behind the attacking character and counter-attack at the cost of 3 ki bars.
• Items – Item capsules can be equipped and used in battle. Items can only be used once, and have various effects ranging from increasing health to granting temporary Ki blast immunity. If a character is interrupted while trying to use an item, the item is lost.
• Hyper Mode – By pressing (p+k+g+e), a character enters Hyper Mode. They turn red, and their Ki slowly decreases, as they lose the ability to block. In Hyper Mode, a character is immune to most weak melee attacks, if Hyper Mode is allowed to run out, the character is fatigued and loses any applicable transformations. Hyper Mode is necessary to start Dragon Rushes and ultimate attacks.
• Dragon Rush – If a character knocks another character away while in Hyper Mode, that character can start a Dragon Rush. A Dragon Rush is a three part game of chance, where both characters choose one of the four buttons. If the defender can pick the same button as the attacker, the Dragon Rush is ended, however, after each part, the number of buttons is decreased. If all three parts connect, the attacking character launches a powerful finisher
• Ultimate Attacks – When in Hyper Mode, characters can launch powerful (and quite cinematic) ultimate attacks. Players use timing to stop a gauge just before it fills up. Depending on the results, the attack can have its power reduced, miss, or be sent back to the attacker. Fusion is also executed in the same way, but the mechanics for fusion are the same as they are in Budokai 2
• Fusion – While still performed the same way, and still providing infinite Ki, dance fusion now instantly ends when the timer runs down to zero (whereas in the previous game, dance fusion was only reverted when your character falls over after the timer runs out). Fusion is also executed in Hyper Mode, just like an ultimate attack.
• Super Saiyan 4 – Goku and Vegeta can now transform to the Super Saiyan 4 level, changing their Kamehameha and Galick Gun attacks into 10X Kamehameha and Final Shine, respectively. These attacks are also 72% stronger than their basic versions.
• “Free Flight” – By holding up or down while doing a backward dash, characters can ascend and descend, where in the past, a player had to be hit into the sky. This is a helpful feature as larger characters have an easier time hitting smaller characters while others simply fight less effectively in the air.

 

 Skills

As in Budokai and Budokai 2, each character is able to be customized by using a 7-slot skill tray. Players may choose up to 7 skills and give them to a fighter. Skills can take from one to seven slots (including ones such as ‘Bulma’s Armor’ ‘and items which include things such as Senzu Bean and Vaccine). Note: there are no physical capsules. The throws are in the control system and the attacks where your character blasts ki attacks rapidly at a downed opponent have been incorporated into Dragon Rush. Grabbing/Throwing techniques, unlike in Budokai 2, do not take up skill slots, allowing further customization of characters.

 

 Story mode

Story mode in Budokai 3 consists of a world map called Dragon Universe. In this mode, you play as 11 characters, traveling around the Earth or Namek in Dragonball Z’s four main sagas: Saiyan, Freeza, Cell, and Majin Buu, and collecting items such as money, capsules or Dragon Balls. After you complete the game, if you have collected all seven Dragon Balls, you are able to make a “wish” which lets you choose one from three special capsules, which include Breakthrough capsules (these allow a player to use all of a character’s moves and abilities at once), “Memories of … Capsules”, and Equipment Capsules.

The various characters are each unlocked by completing a required task within Dragon Universe. Example: Dr. Gero is unlocked by defeating Dr. Gero with Yamcha in the Android Saga.

The stories in the Dragonball Z universe change after the first time they are played.

 

 World tournament

The World Tournament allows players to compete against the computer or up to 8 players in a Martial Arts Tournament. If more than one human player is present no prize money is available, but with only one human player the following prizes can be won:

• Novice: 10,000 Zeni
• Adept: 30,000 Zeni
• Advance: 50,000 Zeni
• Cell Games: 50,000 Zeni

If a player reaches second place, they will win half the prize money. If a player enters the tournament with a Sparking Capsule and wins, the prize money will be multiplied. The more exclamation marks on Sparking, the more money is earned (for example, Sparking! gives the player a 10% increase while Sparking!!!!!!! gives the player a 400% increase).

 

 Dueling

Dueling mode allows a player to fight the computer at a preset skill level, or two human players to fight each other using any custom skills. A player may also watch a fight between two computer fighters.

 

 Edit skills

Made up of three sections, the Skill Shop, character editing, and instructions. A player may edit skills on either memory card.

Aside from Dragon Universe, the Skill Shop is the only place where the player obtains skill capsules.

 Rumors

 [edit] European version (Collector’s Edition)

The European “Collector’s Edition” version of Budokai 3 was released in Autumn 2005. Months before, the hype began to build that it would include not only the option to select the Japanese vocal track for the characters in the game, but that the Japanese version’s extras would also be available for unlocking. The Platinum Version is identical to the Collector’s Edition. The “Baba Crystal Ball Movies” are also available on this version after extensive game play. Several forums have been posted the process needed gain these capsules, which can be bought in the capsule store. However the content of the movies are simply the original Japanese introduction to Dragonball Z: Budokai 2. One clip is the intro with vocal accompaniment while the second clip is the instrumental version of the intro.

 American version (Greatest Hits)

At first, the American “Greatest Hits” version of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3 that was released in late 2005 did not contain promised extra features. It claimed to have the original Japanese voice acting cast in the instruction booklet and on the back of the box, but was deprived of such features. It also tended to corrupt saved data from the original version of Budokai 3. Essentially it was the original game disc repackaged again.

Atari has released a correct version of the game, but has made no effort to distinguish it from the incorrect version (aside from the shrink wrap method mentioned below). Atari is now offering to replace incorrect versions of the game with the correct one. [1]

It has been reported by some that the most recent shipment with the correct disc may be distinguished by the type of shrink wrap it is packaged in. Atari apparently re-opened the packages to replace the defective discs, and re-wrapped them. These copies are wrapped in the same manner as a retailer would shrink wrap, sealed around the edges and slightly loose as opposed to tight-fitting and folded at the corners.

The disks can be easily distinguished if opened. There’s a part number on the disk ending in DVA for the wrong version and DVB for the right one. [2]

The three extra costumes from the Japanese version can be unlocked in the American Greatest hits version by entering passwords, case-sensitive, into the Dragon Arena password entry screen.

The “correct” version is basically a direct port of the European Collector’s Edition, only differing in aspects such as the non-vocal opening, “Hercule City” spelling in Dragon Universe, and memory card data image.

 

The biggest rumor pertaining to this game was that Bulma was playable, for the fact that she was seen in the 11th stage of the training mode, to explain how to use capsules during a duel. She could barely move, but it was a complete game model of her. Also in the DVD that comes with the special edition, her voice actor is seen recording fight sounds for Bulma.

 

 Japanese version

 

The Japanese version of Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3 had outfits that the other versions did not have. Trunks’ 3rd outfit was Long Hair with Armor, Piccolo’s was his father King Piccolo and Goku’s third outfit was him with a Halo. Some games in this Japanese version had some glitches such as Bulma appearing as an outfit for Videl, when the game was complete. While the American version of the game only had two movie clips to unlock (the instrumental and vocal openings from Budokai 2), many fans thought there were extra movies to unlock, since the American strategy guide indicated that there were two additional “Baba’s Crystal Ball” capsules to purchase. Alas, these files do not even exist on the game disc, and therefore cannot be purchased. The only other real “extras” in the Japanese version of the game would be the vocal opening theme, and the fact that character mouths actually move on menu screens (which was not in either the original European and American releases of the game).

Each installment was developed by Spike, while they were published by Namco Bandai in Japan and Atari in all other countries.

 Origin of name

The “Sparking!” in the Japanese title references both the first and last word in the first opening theme to the Dragon Ball Z anime series, “Cha-La Head-Cha-La,” performed by Hironobu Kageyama. However, the opening theme to the game is the TV series’ second opening, “We Gotta Power” (featured in the Japanese version; the English version includes a different, non-vocal song), which is also sung by Kageyama.

The “Budokai Tenkaichi” title of the North American version is a rearranged version of Tenkaichi Budokai (天下一武道会, Tenka’ichi Budōkai, roughly “Strongest Under the Heavens Martial Arts Tournament”). In the series, the Tenka-ichi Budôkai is a gathering of fighters in a competition for glory, fame, and prize money.

The game is not considered a part of the Budokai series of games, despite its misleading title. In addition to a completely different game engine, the game was developed by an entirely different company (Spike as opposed to Dimps). The game is also titled differently from the rest of the Budokai series in Japan. Were it a true Budokai game, it would have been Dragon Ball Z 4 in Japan. Speculation on the English re-title is that Atari chose to market the game as part of the Budokai series in order to capitalize on a pre-existing market of fans already familiar with said game series. The English version also uses a great deal of sound effects and background music made for the Budokai series.

 

 Localization differences

Further confusing fans in North America, Atari’s domestic release of the game does not feature the same music found in the original Japanese version. While Sparking! features actual music from Dragon Ball Z (and two other pieces from the Dragon Ball franchise and Dragon Ball GT where appropriate) as composed by Shunsuke Kikuchi, the American release of the game features recycled music from the Budokai series (composed in Japan by Kenji Yamamoto).

While no official explanation was ever given for the musical differences, as FUNimation Productions did not use the original Japanese score in their “reversioning” of the TV series for an English dub (though they did indeed use it for their English dub of the original Dragon Ball TV series), it can be assumed that contractual issues came into play.

 Gameplay

The games are quite different from the often-compared Budokai series; they use a “behind-the-back” camera perspective. Also different from the Budokai series (and more of a throw-back to games from the Super Famicom era), each form is treated as its own character, with varying stats, movesets and fighting styles, similar to Dragon Ball Z: Legendary Super Warriors while the free roam element is similar to Dragon Ball Z: Sagas. In battle, players can build up their Ki bar to execute various techniques such as the Power Guard, which reduces the damage characters take by 1/4. The Ki bar can also be used to use moves referred to as Blast 2s. Every character has a unique set of Blast 2s that allow the character to use special moves such as Ki blasts and physical attacks. Characters also have a bar called a Blast Stock that allows players to use techniques called Blast 1s. Blast 1s usually have a supportive effect such as allowing characters to regain health or immobilize the enemy. Players can also use a Blast Stock to power up into a mode known as Max Power Mode. Max Power Mode makes the character that initiated it faster, stronger, and able to use moves that are exclusive to the mode. One of these moves is the Ultimate Blast which is usually the most powerful move a character has, though use of an Ultimate Blast immediately ends Max Power Mode.

 

 Game Modes

The story mode of the series (called Z Battle Gate, Dragon Adventure, and Dragon History in each installment, respectively) progresses similarly to the story modes in previous games. Players can select battles from different sagas and proceed through the story of Dragon Ball to Dragon Ball GT, and even several Dragon Ball Z films. The Dragon Balls can be acquired through story mode by destroying the environment in battle; however, the player can only keep the Dragon Ball they find if the battle is won. Each installment features several “what-if” battles and scenarios; for example, Budokai Tenkaichi features stories where the player takes control of a villain and uses the character to defeat the hero, while Budokai Tenkaichi 2 has modes where Raditz and Zarbon essentially team up with the Z Fighters for one reason or another. Budokai Tenkaichi 3 takes the “what-if” idea even further, allowing the player to essentially create their own story. The story changes depending on who wins and loses. Furthermore, cutscenes have been integrated into the battles themselves.

Similar to the same mode in the Budokai series, the player can enter a World Tournament and try to win their way to the top. There are three levels of the basic tournament and a Cell Games mode (which is hosted by Cell). Since characters can fly, characters can leave the perimeter of the arena, but will be called for ringout if they touch the ground. There are no restrictions to the Cell Games mode, but the last match of the Cell Games mode is always against Perfect Cell. In Tenkaichi 1 winning the tournaments gave players a Z-Item prize while in Budokai Tenkaichi 2, players would receive money which in turn would be used on Z-Items. The World Tournament mode could be played with several entrants, but if there is more than one human player, no prize would be awarded. Other features in the game includes more combo attacks or character specific combos, the Blast Combos, and the Z Burst Dash. The additional combo attacks will be able to help chain in more attacks for more damage and longer combos. The Blast Combo is the normal combos however by inputting the another button into the attack will allow you to use a blast attack for extra damage. Depending on the moves of the character you might not be able to use this feat such as Videl or Hercule. The Z Burst Dash is much faster and more evasive version of the of the Dragon Dash. It allows the user to get behind the opponent at high speeds for either a strike or to avoid a blast 2 attack. The drawback to this technique is that it will rapidly drain you of energy.

 History

 Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi, originally published as Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! (ドラゴンボールZ Sparking!, Doragon Bōru Zetto Supākingu!) in Japan, is the first installment in the Budokai Tenkaichi series. The game is available only on Sony’s PlayStation 2. It was released in Japan on October 6, 2005, North America on October 18, 2005, and Europe on October 21, 2005. It is now a Greatest Hits title.

The game features 56 playable characters and 16 stages for battle. However, this game is the only one in the series to not allow in-game transformations.

Despite not featuring the original Japanese music, the American release of the game allows for selectable English (FUNimation Productions cast) and Japanese voices, while retaining the English-language written dialogue (as adapted from Steven J. Simmons’ translation from the original Japanese version’s script). However, there are known bugs in the American version of Budokai Tenkaichi that cause pieces of English and Japanese spoken dialogue to cross over into whichever selection the player is using at times.

 

 Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2

 

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2, originally published as Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! NEO (ドラゴンボールZ Sparking! NEO, Doragon Bōru Zetto Supākingu! Neo) in Japan, is the second installment in the Budokai Tenkaichi series. The game is available on both Sony’s PlayStation 2 and Nintendo’s Wii. The PlayStation 2 and Wii versions have different dates of release. It was released on the PlayStation 2 in Japan on October 5, 2006, Europe on November 3, 2006, North America on November 7, 2006, and Australia on November 9, 2006. The Wii version had slightly later releases; it was released in North America on November 19, 2006, Japan on January 1, 2007, Europe on March 30, 2007, and Australia on April 5, 2007. It is now a Greatest Hits title, like its predecessor. Though originally confirmed as being a launch title in North America for the Wii,^[1] some stores started selling the Wii version on November 15 2006. An issue of V-Jump listed January 2007 as the release date for the Japanese version of the Wii release. The game originally featured 129 characters and 16 stages, though the Japanese and PAL Wii versions came with five additional characters and an extra stage as compensation of their late releases. Some additionally great bonus material within the game was the special story modes specifically given to Zarbon and Raditz, whom were attentively treated particularly well with their own game modes, unlike any other characters.

 

 Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3

 

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3, originally published as Dragon Ball Z: Sparking! METEOR (ドラゴンボールZ Sparking! METEOR, Doragon Bōru Zetto Supākingu! Meteo) in Japan, is the third installment in the Budokai Tenkaichi series. The game is available on both Sony’s PlayStation 2 and Nintendo’s Wii. The game was released in Japan on October 4, 2007,^[3] in North America on November 13, 2007 and in Europe on November 9, 2007 (on PlayStation 2, the Wii version’s release date is December 3, 2007 in North America, October 4, 2007 in Japan, and February 15, 2008 in Europe). Budokai Tenkaichi 3 features 161 characters, the largest character roster in any Dragon Ball Z game, as well as one of the largest in any fighting game. Ryo Mito once stated that the game would feature never-before-seen characters made exclusively for the game, although this has not been confirmed since the game’s release. Gamestop offered an exclusive version with a bonus DVD containing the top 10 television series battles as voted by fans on the release date.^{[citation needed]}

Several new notable features include: Battle Replay, night and day stages, the Wii’s online capability, and Disc Fusion. Battle Replay allows players to capture their favorite fights and save them to an SD card to view later on. Night and day stages allow for more accurate battles in Dragon Ball History, as well as the ability to transform into a Great Ape by using the moon. There are also several other time differences, such as dawn and afternoon. Not all stages provide different times. You can also change the aura of your character. The Wii version features online multiplayer capability, the first game in the series to have such a feature. Players can fight against anyone from around the globe with a ranking system showing the player’s current standing compared to anyone else who has played online. As compensation for the lack of online, Spike has added a new “Disc Fusion System” to the PlayStation 2 version. Inserting a Budokai Tenkaichi or Budokai Tenkaichi 2 disc during play unlocks Ultimate Battle or Ultimate Battle Z, modes featured in the respective games needed to unlock them. The game also supports 480p for both the Wii and the PlayStation 2 versions.

Other features in the game includes more combo attacks or character specific combos, the Blast Combos, and the Z Burst Dash. The additional combo attacks will be able to help chain in more attacks for more damage and longer combos. The Blast Combos are normal combos used in the game, however by inputting the another button into the attack will allow you to use a blast attack for extra damage. Depending on the moves of the character you might not be able to use this feat such as Videl or Hercule. The Z Burst Dash is much faster and more evasive version of the Dragon Dash. It allows the user to get behind the opponent at high speeds for either a strike or to avoid a blast 2 attack. The drawback to this technique is that it will rapidly drain you of energy.

 

 Playable characters

Each character in the series is based on their anime counterparts, their seiyū and voice actors also taking part in the development of the game whenever possible to allow the best interactivity. Each character has attacks and fighting styles more or less derived from the source material, i.e. Goku’s Kamehameha and Vegeta’s Galick Gun. Certain fighters transform during battle, these transformations usually make the transformed character more powerful via a more powerful moveset, and in some cases, increases in health. In-game transformations cannot occur in Budokai Tenkaichi.

With each installment, all the old characters from the previous game are carried over to the new one and new characters are added to the roster. For simplicity reasons, the table below will show the characters introduced in the original installment, and in the next section only the new characters in the succeeding game. All characters will also be referred to as they appear in the most recent installment in the series.
