Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z were the introduction to anime for a ton of people my age. So imagine how cool it must have been to finally have a game of it? And a fighter at that! What could possibly go wrong?
Listen in as Luke Herr from Multiversal Q, Exiled, and RPG Pals Club comes on the show to talk about the first Dragon Ball Z game made that came out in North America, but not the first one that came out in North America. Don’t worry the craziness is just getting started.
Learn such things as:
- Why do the fights take so long in the anime?
- How much candy did the writers eat before making these story lines?
- Can you blame someone for becoming evil if their puppy keeps dying?
- And so much more!
