- Rest in peace, Akira Toriyama. I cannot overstate how grateful I am for having been fortunate enough to have experienced your many artistic contributions to the world throughout my life.
When I was a younger dude, I used to come home from school every afternoon and play back a VHS recording of a show I became obsessed with.
It got to a point where (due to a younger sibling's unforeseen bout of nostalgia) my automated schedule accidentally recorded over a family home movie.
As I got older, this show became a worldwide phenomenon... to the point that VHS tapes of it started being sold for like $35 at stores... or on seedy CD-ROM "video discs" shared between other fellow fans...
Alas... since that time long ago this now worldwide phenomenon of an IP has taken on what I would call an entirely different "feel." Nothing wrong with things changing, but I worry that with time that indescribable "feel" to older things gets lost or looked down upon.
I can't help but prefer to remember this show the way I originally experienced it - when the only way to watch was either on random Saturday mornings at 5am, or weekdays on a new block of animated shows on Cartoon Network called "Toonami" that was hosted by "Moltar" - a villain character from Space Ghost sort of "co-opted / repurposed" to be the cartoon equivalent of an MTV "V.J." for animated shows instead of music videos.
This little mini-obsession video project is just my attempt to show other more modern fans the way I remembered this little show called "Dragon Ball Z" - accurate or not - as I watched it every day after school (and sometimes on random Saturdays around 5 am or so when it showed up on UPN... right before Samurai Pizza Cats).

The Ocean Dub of Dragon Ball Z where every Western child instantly became a fan of Dragon Ball Z one of the greatest anime’s in modern history.
All it took for me was a single random Saturday morning at 5am and I was hooked immediately.
From then on, I was a fan. When Toonami first came on, I literally watched the premiere just to see Dragon Ball Z in proper order.
Back when the hype was insane
14yr old me agreed with you over 9,000%.
Getting older is unironically appreciating the time capsule of old dub openings.
RIP Toriyama and Thanks for everything.
Don't ever delete this

Insane 🎉
I said this so many times on different videos but I apologize for hating the Oceon dub for a while until later on when I warmed up to it and began to like it.
Wow I'm speechless definitely brought back my childhood coming up in the 90s that was definitely my favorite era of Dragon Ball Z before Super Saiyans before God's just straight raw Galactic martial arts best time of Dragon Ball Z in my opinion
Lit song for all these years 🐲🔥
Rest in peace 😭😭 ariki
Good bye
I rate this video OVER 9000!!!
Childhood memories ❤
Goku the ultimate warrior
That video transfer and upscale is better than the official releases.
Love it love it.
*true story*
Me:*watching dragon ball z*
My best friend:what are you watching?
Me: dragon ball z
My best friend: sound lame
Me:watch before judging
*Literally after 4 episode's*
My best friends:*shocked and surprised* WHEN ITS THE NEXT EPISODE?!
(then after some time more of my friends started to come in my house to see this MASTERPIECE)
Rock the Dragon? It's gotta be full screen, sit back, and pay attention until all the seconds of the video have elapsed.
Remmeber those button down DBZ shirts. I miss those days
Great memory you just helped unlock. The world was literally awesome then
Nice
Samurai Pizza Cats! Read the scrip, memories unlocked my man!
Damn. To be a 10 year old boy in the early 00s. 🥲
I was in my late teens to early 20s then! 👴🏻
The very earliest run with the Canadian “Ocean dub” team cast actually started in the very end of the 90s. By the mid-00s, the head of Funimation - Gen Fukunaga - had decided to save money and replace the original voice team that had done the first set of episodes all the way up to the Recoome fight with a smaller new cast based in the DFW area of Texas.
Wait wait wait, UPN? Like, United Paramount Network- THAT UPN??
Yep. You can read about it’s original premiere here :

@@Jdpoz That’s wild
Super will never have this level of intensity.
15 year old me agrees whole-heartedly...
Also 15 yr old me is still salty that a "Rock the Dragon Ocean cast (with Peter Kalamis as Goku)" Kai style dub project never ended up being released on disc... which supposedly was in the works at one point.
@@Jdpoz A true missed opportunity. But the fans will always find new ways to Rock the Dragon.
@@JdpozOcean Kai removed dragon soul, and that's unforgivable.
@@Sayajin3321 I mean - I know why... but I still hear the version sung by the guy they umm... ousted... in my head when watching Kai due to how much better a singer he is compared to the other voice actors. That's what theme.mp3 is for in Plex.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ❤❤❤❤❤
This intro is better than the entirety of SUPER.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pure facts
True
Blinded by nostalgia. Musically, this intro is terrible.
@@dunnoausernamedunno5533 nah bro
Me taking a shit is better than Super
This audio is inept. Just a bunch of clips of screaming over rock the dragon but I can't even hear the song.
😫
shut up zoomer kid
1:11 1:34
Please can this youtuber upload the history of trunks green dub remastered full movie even from start of rock your dragon song in the movie of history trunks all the way up to the ending credits
“…can this UA-camr upload… …remastered full movie”
No. I can’t upload full length movies on UA-cam.
That would probably get me a copyright strike / get my channel shut down.
This video was just my attempt to recapture/recreate a long lost version of a show opening / vibe that hopefully might make a few fellow old-school Moltar-era Toonami Dragon Ball Z fans smile.
The Japanese version is way better
Soooooo much yelling.
