@@carlbloke8797 Yea, it’s just that they always put them in the most inconvenient plot spots (as in parts of the plot: Example: Broly between the Cell Saga) However they were all designed BY Toriyama, but someone else made the story n what not.

Same here! It's such a quick clip but it immediately made me check the credits and sure enough. Really cool that he contributed to this. Ross's shot came out awesome too!
I think Toriyama would absolutely love the goofiness of some of these clips. He'd be proud to have impact on new animators to make new smiles and laughs.
Never thought I'd see Egoraptor return to do an animation; seeing his name in the credits was definitely something I did not expect. Props to all the artists who participated!
It took me a while to really get into dragon ball, but with some of the games, that animated fan project from a while back, and the abridges series, it started to grow on me. We’ll never have another Toriyama. Rest In Peace, my good man.
Wow, what a huge nostalgia kick that gave me! All of the animators did a great job here. Also, props to Ashley Nichols for subverting expectations with Gohan's Oozaru transformation. That moment was really cute. ^^
Our coach had us a record a project on VHS back in high school. I used one that had recorded dbz episodes off TV. When he popped in our tape he was humming rock the dragon. You’re a real one coach Baker.
Wait wait wait, GD it wait. Was that a MF'ing Nu from Chrono Trigger in the very opening? WHOEVER DID THIS DESERVES A MEDAL!! You guys don't understand how awesome of an easter egg that is. Chrono Trigger is one of the greatest games of ALL TIME and was an exceptional work of art by Toriyama Sensei.
Rock The Dragon is an underrated Opening. i know everybody loves Head Cha La since it's the Original, but goddamnit all, i was vibing with this Opening back on Toonami! it's still awesome today, gets the blood pumping like a fire hose!
As a 90s kid I had a massive smile on my face from beginning to end. Seriously guys, life sucks and yet I was just in 4th grade again, watching this on Toonami after school. The Ocean dub voices, that fucking song, you all captured each moment in a unique and fun way. Goku's goofy run at the start made me laugh and I had to try and not pause the vid every few seconds so I could watch the whole thing. From the goofy animations to the people who went ridiculously hard, kudos and congrats on making something so full of love in honor of a man who gave generations one of the greatest anything's to ever exist, Dragonball.
This is absolutely beautiful! Watching Ross animate Krillin was so fun and had me hyped to see this. Everyone did amazing I'm so proud of every animator involved!
0:54 WHADDYA MEAN THE TRUNKS SHOT IS PARKER SIMMMONS I MEAN IT TOTALLY IS, BUT YOU GOT FUCKIN' *MAO MAO* ON THIS?! HE DID SO GOOD. So did everyone else, recognizing everyone's styles in this tribute was an absolute treat, and seeing Arin animate again, even if it was just for a shot is always fantastic. BUT MAO MAO-
Shoutout to the late 90’s to early 2000’s Ocean-Funimation generation of Dragon Ball fans. So many outstanding creative figures come from that bunch, including all of you guys!
lol As a kid I never knew about different companies doing the VA so to me seeing the Sayain saga and Namek saga of Ocean then seeing Funimation later on I always thought their voices changing was them growing and maturing lmao
@@saiyanmynamee5109 i headcanon the higher pitched voice Vegeta in the old Funi Namek Saga dub being part of the transition between Ocean Vegeta and Funi Vegeta voice
Going to bed, seeing this and unlocking core memories from watching dbz on the tv as a kid. Yeh not getting to sleep soon. Amazing work by everyone with there different styles.
I've watched this countless times, and still can't get enough. Everybody here did such an incredible job with these scenes. I love how some are goofy, others play it straight, but all of them are uniquely amazing. Thanks so much to the animators for putting in so much work! I'm sure Toriyiama (RIP) would've loved this.
It has been a hot minute since I've seen a "I gotta show this to all my friends" video. Brought me back even harder than the theme song recreation did.
This has to be one of my favorite things on the internet, genuinely hilarious and badass at the same time with a collaborative team all showing their unique creative strengths with each segment leaving for constant rewatch ability purely for admiration! I hope to join an animation collaboration like this someday when I’m ready!
0:10 wth lol 0:16 this is smooth 0:19 This is very detailed 0:25 Goku said "Kaio KEEEEEN" 0:29 DAMN ROSHI 0:30this is VERY smooth 1:06 omg i missed this db outro, its been so long
I've been randomly just playing the intro throughout the last couple of days. Didn't know it had a purpose but after finding the video in my recommended I've finally realised it.
This is awesome, everyone did so amazing!
I screamed when I saw your animation, it flows so perfectly! You all did such an amazing job it literally brought a few happy tears to my eyes
I was in the stream while you were animating this!!! Amazing work with Krillin!!!
That Krillin was flawless Ross! Well done!
stop lying.
Bot
Krillin clip looked so authentic I thought it was just from the original intro
Ross loves DBZ so much
@@AirHam I think he was referring to David Lu at 0:22 with krillin running on the wall. Both are rather faithful to original though.
Frrr I'm so impressed
@@tybost Both of them WERE Krillin though, So it's easy to misunderstand the OC's comment lol, Until Remi says otherwise it's up to interpretation.
Sorry I did indeed mean the one at 0:22 Ross's is really good too.
Didn't know I was gonna be 8 again today.
Memories of getting off the bus and heading straight to my room for the announcer are coming back.
I wish I was alive when dbz was live ☹️

they probably still play episodes of it on adult swim (assuming you both use cable and are in a region where adult swim plays shows)@@nothi7g961

Rest in peace Toriyama sensei. 🙏
He was the man for sure
0:45 that Nappa one was fukcing cool as hell!
I want a whole intro of this
Never did I think I’d see the villains from World’s Strongest, Tree of Might, and Dead Zone get this much love and attention
Yea it’s weird how Rock The Dragon MOSTLY contained The movie clips, despite absolutely NONE of the show containing those villains or the canon as well.
@@frodotronnik_it’s so baffling. Not to mention it’s baffling that NONE of the movies before Super Broly are canon

Gohan and Piccolo's bit was so adorable!!
I can't believe that egoraptor's animation style is still so iconic my brain immediately recognized it after seeing 0.2 seconds of it
I didn't know he was still doing animation because Arin Hanson is mostly a voice actor these days.
It's just as good as I remember! Snapping and stretching like they're in a taffy puller machine
@@Tinyironfistfar as i know this is the first time in ages, i wonder if he decided toriyama's passing was worth coming out of retirement for
Same here! It's such a quick clip but it immediately made me check the credits and sure enough. Really cool that he contributed to this. Ross's shot came out awesome too!
I thought egoraptor passed after the great “Sr Pelo story time animation war”
0:30 so smooth!
That’s Tom Barkel for ya
Same with 0:43, this entire project is a marvel of animation, major props to everyone who worked on it!
The master roshi one SLAPPED. Also i can do a perfect impression of him :D
The details too
I think Toriyama would absolutely love the goofiness of some of these clips. He'd be proud to have impact on new animators to make new smiles and laughs.
0:28 yo this goes unbelievably hard
OH YEAH.👍 This everything a marshal arts master should be animated like.
THATS WHAT IM SAYING
This animation style reminds me of those fast-paced scenes in Disney Animation
@@Jocka-mk4tzexactly!
Smallbu did the Master Roshi scene so good and captured how badass he is as an old man.
U gotta show respect to this man especially when he shaped roshi like kingpin just to show how badass the old geezer can be
0:35 The monkey onesie is adorable!
AAAACK
The part where Gohan was falling from the sky and hurls a chi blast looked so awesome!!
This and Goku's double Kamehameha!
That Toriyama-sensei at the ending song made me tear a little 🥺
This is pure perfection❤️
Salute to the animators involved, ya’ll owned this 🫡
Hey Nutshell,I’m Surprised With No Replies
WAIT NUTSHELL LIKES DBZ?? HOLY SHIT
YO ITS HIM
Go back to your old animation style, your new style with these shorts kinda mid
I'm blown up by Agent Mystery Meat's take on Goku's Kaioken at 0:24
That was my favourite. So much life in that short clip.
It was so fun to yell out people as I recognized their work, I'm so insane for this I'm biting through my drywall
0:22 to 0:28 who ever did this part did a great job
Never thought I'd see Egoraptor return to do an animation; seeing his name in the credits was definitely something I did not expect. Props to all the artists who participated!

Yes
0:18 That scene is fantastic !!

0:30

These are my absolute favs but they are all fantastic, love the energy and humor in some of them. RIP Toriyama :')
You really like the work by Tom Barkell :) he did 0:30 and 0:43.
@@CreatorClashCCG Thanks for letting me know! :)
This is the first Goku Day without Akira Toriyama-sensei..
Rest in Peace, and thank you for everything.
0:23 NAS PASHA, ITS HIM!!! THE GOAT RETURNS!!!
this was incredible. I knew that was Louie Zong and Worthikids as soon as their style popped up
Seeing Arin Hanson animate again has brought me joy I never thought I’d experience again 😭 even if it was brief. I missed you bro.
So awesome seeing Egoraptor animate again, even if it is a short one.
All the animators did such a great job!
Good work, everyone!
0:39 to 0:41 is so GOOD. The running on the wall is crisp
It took me a while to really get into dragon ball, but with some of the games, that animated fan project from a while back, and the abridges series, it started to grow on me. We’ll never have another Toriyama. Rest In Peace, my good man.
0:50 _This just in!_ *This is f•cking Egoraptor's style!*
The cut with Gohan's Masenko is just straight dopamine for my monke brain.
This whole video was awesome!!
Roshi’s arm coming in from offscreen on the right to block on a kick on left really got me 😂
That Master Roshi clip got me up real quick. AMAZING
Can spot nas pashas from a mile away it's just so crisp and incredible. All amazing
0:45
Damn. This reminds me of Paul Robertson's style. The guy who did Scott Pilgrim the game's sprite work.
The clip with Roshi and the one after is my favorite. That animation is clean.
Wow, what a huge nostalgia kick that gave me! All of the animators did a great job here.
Also, props to Ashley Nichols for subverting expectations with Gohan's Oozaru transformation. That moment was really cute. ^^
This also proves Dragon Ball would look awesome no matter the artstyle.
Our coach had us a record a project on VHS back in high school. I used one that had recorded dbz episodes off TV. When he popped in our tape he was humming rock the dragon. You’re a real one coach Baker.
Whole thing is amazing but 0:30 is just on another level for me
I believe that scene was worked on by the guys that animated Lego monkey kid
This was so awesome to see everyone did a fantastic job!
0:32 gohans little dance with picklo holding him was life
Rock the Dragon can still be found in the veins of bodybuilders to this day. Amazing tribute
It’s crazy that I would return to my childhood with this theme.
Thank you.
Gohan was adorable. T_T I can't believe he's turned into such a BEAST!
its rare to see arin hanson animate again
What an amazing collab! Who would have though Egoraptor still animated :)
I believe Arin keeps forgoting he's an animator because he's too busy with game grumps all the time.
@@Zappa_boi TRUTH. Wish he had more time!
Life begins with Nu and ends with Nu. This is what I believe.
So happy to see someone else get the Chrono Trigger reference.
Wait wait wait, GD it wait. Was that a MF'ing Nu from Chrono Trigger in the very opening?
WHOEVER DID THIS DESERVES A MEDAL!! You guys don't understand how awesome of an easter egg that is. Chrono Trigger is one of the greatest games of ALL TIME and was an exceptional work of art by Toriyama Sensei.
0:22 absolutely insane. thought this was from the anime
NO ONE is talking about how clean the Krillin and Goku animations were. so good Toriyama would have blessed this work himself.
Everyone is talking about it you regard
You can feel the love and passion everyone poured into this bravo
Rock The Dragon is an underrated Opening. i know everybody loves Head Cha La since it's the Original, but goddamnit all, i was vibing with this Opening back on Toonami! it's still awesome today, gets the blood pumping like a fire hose!
0:50 ARIN GOT BACK TO ANIMATING
David Liu’s is my favorite. Captures that 90’s original cel action packed animation quite well for DBZ
God fucking blessed, RIP Toriyama this is such a passionate collective tribute.
As a 90s kid I had a massive smile on my face from beginning to end. Seriously guys, life sucks and yet I was just in 4th grade again, watching this on Toonami after school.
