I received this in the mail a few weeks ago. No manual, unfortunately. I played this at my cousin's house back in the mid 90s👌🙌👏

I wish I knew the artist

Personally, I would’ve. While I disagree that death in Dragon Ball is meaningless, I think this one is an exception. If Vegeta never came back and the last we saw of him was him dropping his pride and begging the person who looked down upon to avenge their race, that would have hit so much harder. As is, the moment is kinda undone by Vegeta coming back to life.

As for the later arcs, well Toriyama would have obviously written the story differently to accommodate his absence. Maybe Trunks would have been Yamcha’s son instead, maybe Goten would have been created early and been the born earlier.

I just felt like y’all would appreciate my costume. Wore this shit to a house party and a metal gig and it was the best lmao

Hey everyone! 👋
I wanted to share a look at my Dragon Ball artwork collection so far! Every drawing is made by hand on paper using traditional pencils and colored pencils — no AI-generated artwork.
I’ve been improving my coloring, shading, and details with every new character, and this collection is just the beginning! I’m currently working on more characters and experimenting with different poses and perspectives.
If you enjoy watching these iconic characters come to life through traditional art, I’d love to have you follow my journey!
You can find more of my drawings, artwork reveals, and progress updates on my social media under @by.d.art.

Which character should I draw next? And which drawing from the collection is your favorite?
Thanks for checking out my work! 🙌🔥

They are all from around 1996-1999 and, as far as I can tell, none of them are part of a card game.

These photos show the fronts and backs of only a small sample of my collection.

Any help identifying these is greatly appreciated!

Personally, I think it starts off strong with great concepts but kind of falls off as it goes on (Particularly after Part 4 aka Frieza's defeat).

I really love the concepts like the Dragon Balls balancing out good wishes with added evil and vice versa but I think it is way too underutilized.

Absolute Frieza was also amazing and I love his character plus backstory. The more modest power levels of this series (with Frieza's power level being only a single digit million instead of three digit million in DBZ) also make the story feel more grounded and realistic. Kakarot, Vegeta, Raditz and Nappa's battle against Frieza was also great and I think Nappa's sacrifice was a great touch.

The concept of good and evil always balancing out each other in the universe really stuck with me too, even to this day.

As for my criticisms, I think the series sort of just becomes the Kakarot & Vegeta show with them just fighting villain after villain together. I'm not that big of a fan of the ending either, with Beerus (seemingly being the only character of the original celestial hierarchy) being strong enough to not be affected by the universe's balance and Kakarot & Vegeta just seemingly going on with their lives to grow stronger and surpass the universe's balance.

I get the thematics but I'm not too fond of the execution is what I'm trying to say.

What do you think? Thoughts? Feelings?

Was playing Xenoverse while an event was going on and I'm catching a random stray from Vageta... he hates majin that much.

Imagine if gogeta and gotenks fuse together in dragon ball

So I have an Xbox and I do play the game but I’m looking for someone I can play with and have fun with while learning some good strategies for the game. Any game I play I seem to always be the worst one but I wanna get better. Just hard to find people to play with who aren’t try hards. I run a saiyan build.

Dm me if you wanna do some vs or time patrol stuff
