I appreciate you all for watching! As always, please feel free to give me any feedback, positive or negative and let me know what game you’d like to see next! See you all in a couple weeks
This was the game that introduced me to Dragon Ball, I don’t know if I ever would’ve become a Dragon Ball fan in the first place if the game never existed
It wasn’t yellow in the original manga because it was always in black and white. There was only one colored chapter that featured the Kamehameha and in that chapter, the beam was just white with no color at all. It wasn’t colored yellow until the full color volumes came out years after this game was released.
The Kamehameha was yellow at first in the manga. I think it's yellow on some covers. Also Gohans Super Kamehameha against Boo's egg was yellow in the anime. But that was probably just an animation error.

The Kamehawave in the game is yellow because the manga always depicted it as yellow in the colored version. But there were never any colored pictures with cell doing the wave so they gave him the anime treatment
I just feel like most people, even in 2002, associated the kamehameha wave with the color blue. But if they were trying to stay true to the manga I can always appreciate that
I feel like the Legacy of Goku games all get a bad rap when really only the first one was kinda bad. LOGII and Buu's Fury were great, and I feel they should have more attention.
There could be a connection of Cell's voice staying the same but it's kinda theorizing Cell's voice doesn't change in the English sub His voice stays the same throughout his transformations
The reason why Cell uses his imperfect form's voice in fights is because the different voices he uses for each form in the English Dub ONLY occur in the English Dub. In the original Japanese dub, Cell has the same voice for all of his forms. So, there was only one voice slot assigned to each character. That's why they put the imperfect voice lines in even though he is in his perfect form.
The Gt. Saiyaman led me to believe that somehow, someway the Boo Saga was unlockable. I was dreaming about cutscenes in this gorgeous artstyle, but as we all know now... the Boo Saga is not here and get's even shorter in cutscenes in Infinite World and Burst Limit suffers from the same ending (Cell) as Budokai 1. At least Broly was there. And Bardock.
@mysteriousthirteen I thought I read somewhere they officially stated the new ages of Gohan. When Gohan is in super he is an adult. Also I think Ultimate Gohan is when he is first shown as being technically an adult.
To explain the audio of Cell, it is because only had voice in Japanese, and as such they only had that in mind which is the reason why a few games for the next decade had only 1 Cell voice. Either they had Perfect Cell voice or imperfect Cell voice.
Huh, always interesting to learn something new about the series. I recently realized in budokai 2 his audio still has the same issue, guess I somehow never noticed it as a kid, or forgot lol
I always thought he had imperfect cell voice in game, because of the transformation system .. it’s been ages since I played it.. but you had to pick imperfect cell at the character screen, and transform into perfect cell in the match right ? Or am I mistaken?
I remember the day this game came out and my dad rushed to rent it and suddenly all of it clicked dragon ball became cool and i wanted to watch it and then i started getting the dbz manga
I did end up buying one Japanese exclusive dbz game for the game boy when I was really young. It was in black and white and covered the frieza arc. Can’t remember the name
Ooooooh i can explain the cell voice its because in the subtitles cells voice doesnt change so during game play it reverts to his original grunts or something along thst line
dude i love the burst mode in the budokai games honestly it was awesome to me. i really wish somehow they’d make a budokai 4. most people prefer tenkaichi 4 and you know what i do to, but budokai 4 would just be such a throwback if in the same style just better animation and i believe it would be great i love those style dbz games and no fighterz isn’t like the budokais either.
There is a Budokai 4: Infinite World. So I guess it would be a Budokai 5, kinda. Unless they count Burst Limit. But sadly it probably will not happen because Dimps is making Xenoverse now.
Video isn't bad but you need to cut out the dead air in your commentary. There's some pauses that can just be cut out as a whole. Like right here for example 1:59

Great video! Nice and in-depth, but if i could offer one piece of advice as a humble viewer: very simply, try to deliver your lines a little quicker (I'm assuming you're reading from a script). You definitely improved as the video went on but, even at 2x speed it felt as though the video and points you were making dragged a little bit. Just something that comes with practice :)
I’m glad you enjoyed the vid and Thanks for the tips! I noticed every time I recorded myself I got better as the video went on (what your watching is like the fourth take) But that being said, I hope to improve with every video! :)
Imagine if we got to choose the characters with their battle damaged outfits instead of were we got weird outfits for them oh and by the way when purchasing from skill shop searching for the dragon balls buy 9 of everything first then that way dragon balls will just show up in shop
@@mysteriousthirteen since this is dimps is first attempt at making a dbz game i do not think they were fully aware that some moves were the wrong colors
@@goatlick21that is some pretty solid and simple reasoning. You’re probably right. I’d imagine it would’ve been pretty easy to do some minor research on the series though.. lol
& Yeah always wondered why he kept his first form cell voice lol ahhh the good old days Edit: But TECHNICALLY I think He can change his voice to whatever he wants like he did with the other androids voice so idk maybe a hidden talent xD
It’s a bad habit I’ve had my whole life haha. I think because I used to be obsessed with crash bandicoot as a kid and jumping on the boxes. Anyway, thanks for watching - tournament mode is legendary
Combos take plenty of practice but I managed to get pretty good at them. In Budokai 2 you have to beat Kid Buu with the Super Spirit Bomb to unlock... something and THAT was an absolute bitch.
Yes Also no need to show a plain face without some expression, even with expression honestly and no offense, but that is not a face I want to keep watching in between game takes
The original budokai is way more important then you think. When it released and after in Japan when people talked about dragon ball this is what they were referring to.
You so didn't want to say gt final bout 😂. Also the cell voice not changing when fighting is to match the sub series because that voice actor stays with one voice for all cell forms.
I remember getting that game and being so disappointed haha. That makes a lot of sense! Although I still think they should have worked that out before releasing the game but hey, that’s what the sequels are for lol
@@mysteriousthirteen fun fact. It took until raging blast 2 to change all the fighting battle dialogue because kai was made. So they no longer had all forms of cell sounding like his first.
@@mysteriousthirteen lol yeah, also it’s the first and only game to feature adult Goku in his Gt gi when he was sparring with Gt Uub. On top of that gave him a Super Saiyan Transformation!
Just to give you one of my pieces of advice buy every skill and item in the shop and you will be able to buy nothing but dragon ball and as a bonus ill give you one more piece of advice save all of your money until you reach all 9s and when you buy something you wont lose money thats all not giving all my secrets aways
I never knew that! Might have to go back and get the rest of the collectibles I missed. I remember in Budokai 2 there was a skill shop hack I used to do to get everything for free. Hopefully I can mention that in my next review!
@@mysteriousthirteen The entire game unfortunately. I'm not sure if it was something to do with the fact that we had a different dub than you guys did in America and maybe it was an issue with licensing at the time. Still, I remember begging my dad for this game for my 9th birthday and spending most of the day playing it when I got it.
I appreciate you all for watching! As always, please feel free to give me any feedback, positive or negative and let me know what game you’d like to see next! See you all in a couple weeks
You already know I'm waiting on that LOG/buu's fury video 👀
@@_Majunior haha I didn’t forget, I’ll for sure be getting to those soon bro
@@mysteriousthirteen no rush at all!
This was the game that introduced me to Dragon Ball, I don’t know if I ever would’ve become a Dragon Ball fan in the first place if the game never existed
That’s awesome! Budokai was probably a lot of people’s introduction to the series
And make sure you purchase nine of everything else before you start purchasing the dragon balls
Cell's voice staying the same is because the japanese Cell is one voice, so there is only one voice slot for grunts and such.
Can’t believe how long ago this was, feels like just last year!
Time flies! This game and the sequels were the definition of my childhood
In the manga, the kamehameha is yellow
It wasn’t yellow in the original manga because it was always in black and white. There was only one colored chapter that featured the Kamehameha and in that chapter, the beam was just white with no color at all. It wasn’t colored yellow until the full color volumes came out years after this game was released.

@@mysteriousthirteen Yea, I think it was the same for Legacy of Goku 1 on Gameboy Goku's ki blast and Kamehawave was yellow in that too
This game pre-dates the colored version of the manga by many years, so it couldn’t have gotten yellow from the manga.
I feel like the Legacy of Goku games all get a bad rap when really only the first one was kinda bad. LOGII and Buu's Fury were great, and I feel they should have more attention.
Completely agree! LOG2 might be one of my favorites! Planning a review for the LOG series soon
Yeah log2 was great same with buus fury log could have had potential but it was a little weird
Ive been playing surfs up the video game and id love to see you doing a video review of the game
They got a whole remake dbz kakarot
There could be a connection of Cell's voice staying the same but it's kinda theorizing
Cell's voice doesn't change in the English sub
His voice stays the same throughout his transformations
Yeah after further research I believe that’s why
Super liking the videos on this channel. I’m exited to see what more comes
Really glad to hear that! I have a bunch of new vids I’m working on rn, can’t wait for you all to see them
One of the only game trilogies where each game improves on the last
You’re not wrong
The reason why Cell uses his imperfect form's voice in fights is because the different voices he uses for each form in the English Dub ONLY occur in the English Dub. In the original Japanese dub, Cell has the same voice for all of his forms. So, there was only one voice slot assigned to each character. That's why they put the imperfect voice lines in even though he is in his perfect form.
Damn the dub really was way better
0:28 yup had it on GameCube! I remember being hyped when budokai 2 was coming out I got it for my birthday with a PS2 that had a dbz wrap
The hype for Budokai 2 was real. Those were the days bro!
I heard from Hidden's video on Budokai 1, the reason for yellow beams was bc that's the color manga uses.
Really? That’s super interesting. But also makes a lot more sense than anything else I’ve heard
I'll be waiting for the GT final bout roast video, Also fun fact the JP version has the correct voice actors for the characters
Can’t wait for it either haha
The manga color of the kamehameha was white or yellow in the manga so it seemed like they wanted to make it more faithful to the source material
That makes sense, I can definitely appreciate that
man I thought you had thousands of subs, u really feel like a big youtuber, I hope u get the recognition u deserve
Thank you so much man! I’m just starting out on this whole UA-cam journey. Hope you stick around to see what I have in store!

I remember unlocking the great sayianman and not knowing he was adult gohan at the time
Such a weird unlockable character choice for this game lol
Isn't Great Sayianman teen Gohan? I think it goes Kid, Youth, Teen, and Adult
@@bradpollard444 technically he was about 16 but in the older games they refer to him as adult and 11 y/o gohan as teen for some reason lol
@mysteriousthirteen I thought I read somewhere they officially stated the new ages of Gohan. When Gohan is in super he is an adult. Also I think Ultimate Gohan is when he is first shown as being technically an adult.
I think they updated them more recently, thankfully lol. It always bothered me they considered 11 year old gohan teen, made no sense
I can safely say I've never heard someone refer to the square button as the "box" button. You're a unique guy, and not wrong.
I didn’t even realize I was saying it at the time haha. Always been a weird habit of mine
To explain the audio of Cell, it is because only had voice in Japanese, and as such they only had that in mind which is the reason why a few games for the next decade had only 1 Cell voice. Either they had Perfect Cell voice or imperfect Cell voice.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who recognizes the greatness of this game! Always felt like it gets overlooked by its successors
Also the Kamehameha being yellow never bothered me prob cuz thats a pretty usual ki blast color
Have you ever played the Super Gokuden games for the Super Famicon?
I have not! I always wanted to as a kid, because I was trying to play every dbz game. I plan on (hopefully) reviewing them in the future though
I did end up buying one Japanese exclusive dbz game for the game boy when I was really young. It was in black and white and covered the frieza arc. Can’t remember the name
@mysteriousthirteen That's cool. The Super Gokuden games definitely aren't the best, but they are extremely unique in their gameplay.
Hey mysterious thirteen just imagine instead of goku's vegetas gohans weird alternative outfits imagine if they were theire battle damaged outfits
Ooooooh i can explain the cell voice its because in the subtitles cells voice doesnt change so during game play it reverts to his original grunts or something along thst line
Thanks so much for explaining this! When I was a kid I probably didn’t think much of it but as an adult it seemed so weird to me haha
tf u mean subtitles? you mean japanese.
@@aquaarmour4924 yeah bro imma be honest I do not care
@@mysteriousthirteen I only learned about it recently it's a glitch in a few different budokai and Tenkaichi games I'm pretty sure
dude i love the burst mode in the budokai games honestly it was awesome to me. i really wish somehow they’d make a budokai 4. most people prefer tenkaichi 4 and you know what i do to, but budokai 4 would just be such a throwback if in the same style just better animation and i believe it would be great i love those style dbz games and no fighterz isn’t like the budokais either.

@@mysteriousthirteen yeah but some people just don't want to look stuff up
Because originally in the manga all these beams were yellow, including kamehameha and galick gun. They fixed it later though
& Yeah always wondered why he kept his first form cell voice lol ahhh the good old days
Edit: But TECHNICALLY I think He can change his voice to whatever he wants like he did with the other androids voice so idk maybe a hidden talent xD
I wish it was that complex 😂
Did bro just say box instead of square? 💀💀💀
Lmaooo
Great video.
Ps. It's square not Box😭😭😭
Thank you! That means a lot. And I know, it’s a bad habit 😂
@@mysteriousthirteen all jokes, got a new sub
@@83jdc1 appreciate you!
I have never heard anyone say "box" instead of "square". Good video tho - I miss playing the tournament mode with my cousins ❤
It’s a bad habit I’ve had my whole life haha. I think because I used to be obsessed with crash bandicoot as a kid and jumping on the boxes. Anyway, thanks for watching - tournament mode is legendary
Did this man legitimately just say Box instead of Square?
Yeaaa it’s a bad habit
Combos take plenty of practice but I managed to get pretty good at them. In Budokai 2 you have to beat Kid Buu with the Super Spirit Bomb to unlock... something and THAT was an absolute bitch.
Watching you're latest video it seems I meant 3, whoops
I agree that the Burst Mode training is not good. It's cool if it is just apprearing suddenly in a fight but that's it.
Yeah I don’t hate burst mode. But that training segment was terrible
Which console did this drop on
PS2 and I also played on GameCube
Yep PS2 originally
It looked a little bit better on GC too then it did on ps2
@@83jdc1 GC graphics were genuinely good af
7:18 did this man just fucking say box? i can accept people calling X Cross, but this is too far.
It’s been engraved into my vocabulary since Crash Bandicoot I can’t stop it now
The yellow kamehameha never bothered me
Yeah it didn’t bother me too much. caught me off guard is a better way to describe it haha
Kamehameha was originally yellow in the manga
@@TheWarrior221 true, I’ve come to notice it’s also yellow in some episodes. I’m just used to it being blue I guess lol

Thank you!
Great script, good voice, need to speed up the delivery
Appreciate the feedback! Noted, I’ll keep working on my delivery for upcoming projects!
Yes
Also no need to show a plain face without some expression, even with expression honestly and no offense, but that is not a face I want to keep watching in between game takes
@@mysteriousthirteen good luck on the journey ahead!!
Yeah it did and nobody sees that now, we went from dragonball gt final bout to a we have to get a dragonball z game right.
Exactly right. This was the first GOOD dbz game
The original budokai is way more important then you think. When it released and after in Japan when people talked about dragon ball this is what they were referring to.
For sure. Budokai 1 definitely helped influence the worlds perspective on DB
Pplleasse review Gt Final Bout ! 🙏
