Animetal USA is an American cover band that covers anime such as DragonBall Z songs. They are gearing up for a self titled album release and tour this year. The new album will contain the two songs: We Gotta Power and Cha-La Head-Cha-LA. You can listen to Makafushigi Adventure here! Check it out and discuss on what you thought of it! You can check out their website for more details!
On YouTube, FUNimation’s official channel held a live interview event with Gen Fukunaga, Matt O’Hara, & Chris Sabat about the DBZ Blu-Rays. In it, they discuss how DBZ came to FUNimation and the long journey to get the show on Blu-Ray disc. In short, they basically remastered the original film prints which they have never had the opportunity to use before, and kept the original 4:3 aspect ratio and transferred the film onto Blu-Ray in 1080p and added lossless Dolby HD sound. If you ask me, I’d refrain from buying these “Level 1.1, Level 1.2, Level 1.3,” etc. box sets and wait for FUNimation to inevitably release Blu-Ray season sets. It would make more financial sense and take up less space in your entertainment center. But, you can waste your money if you want! Watch the Interview below.
As promised, here are some brand new promo shots of James Marsters as Piccolo from DragonballEvolution. Several of these pictures feature Piccolo using a sword which was never seen in the film. There are also a few new Piccolo vs. Goku uncut stills included as well. Many thanks goes out to Civilized James for these, and hopefully we’ll get more soon! Also, note that we’ll upload all these images (along with everything else) into our new gallery once that’s up.
Sky from Civilized James sent us some more unseen movie stills of DragonballEvolution. But it would appear that this bunch is mainly just high quality screenshots from the finalized film, although there are a couple new images. Nonetheless, here they are and we should be receiving more promo shots soon, including James Marsters as Piccolo.
Just to give you a taste of what to expect when we (hopefully) provide a handful of new DragonballEvolution promo shots/stills, we’re posting two new screenshots that were never seen in the finalized film. One is of Mai hiding behind a rock and the other is of Grandpa Gohan sitting in a chair outside. Check them out here!
Update: A new Piccolo promo shot has been added, more to come soon!
You can now watch the live-action movie adaptation of DragonBall, DragonballEvolution, here at DB Legends. DragonballEvolution occurs during the arcs of Piccolo mixed with several sagas from the entire DragonBall series (including the first, the “Goku” saga), though it loosely follows the story. You’ll need to click the “play” button twice to properly view the movie.

A new Japanese commercial for the hand-held fighting game DragonBall Kai: Ultimate Butoden has hit online. In the video, actual gameplay is shown off for the very first time. It looks quite detailed and fast, with nice Nintendo DS-exclusive touches such as some techniques like Goku’s “Spirit Bomb” taking up both screen’s real estate.

A new “Ultimate Butoden” scan from V-Jump magazine has been posted online by Wiiz.fr for the world to see. It boasts screen shots from the game which show off the impressive graphics that seem to be pushing the Nintendo DS hardware to its limits.

New details have emerged regarding the upcoming Nintendo DS fighting game “DragonBall Kai: Ultimate Butoden.” For starters, the official website has been updated with new screenshots and information. The website reveals the game takes advantage of the built-in Nintendo DS microphone which allows players to launch special attacks by saying the attack names out loud. For example, if you’re playing as Goku and yell “Kame Hame Ha,” you’ll blast the iconic beam at the enemy. If that sounds too silly for you, players can opt out of this unusual control scheme and instead use the touch screen or buttons to activate special moves.
Also revealed on the website is auto-blocking. When players are standing still, weak attacks will be automatically blocked. And if players are moving towards the opponent, energy blasts will be automatically blocked. Finally, the website hints at a special Ki system on the bottom screen which appears to let players choose how much Ki they want. There might be some benefit to having less Ki in a battle, but it’s not clear what benefit that would be.
Last but not least, a new scan from V-Jump magazine is available. Along with new screen shots, it reiterates the information we just discussed above.
DragonBall Kai: Ultimate Butoden releases in Japan on February 3rd, 2011. On an unrelated note, we hope you’re enjoying our new and improved website layout! It’s still in the beta stage (the content slider at the top doesn’t work just yet and the comment section needs improvement) but we trust you’ll agree it’s much better than the old one! A lot of work went into it. Stay tuned for more.
The Japanese box art for Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butôden, and with it 27 characters, have been revealed. The box features 27 characters crowding every inch of space, and it’s more than likely they’ll all be playable (or at the very least show up throughout the adventure). Check out the box and list of characters below.
Keep in mind that’s not the official roster and more characters might be announced at a later date. Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butouden is a fighter for the Nintendo DS which will cover every story arc in DragonBall Kai. The game is expected for release in Japan on February 3rd, 2011. We’ll let you know when a North American release is announced.
Namco Bandai has opened the official website for the recently revealed Nintendo DS fighting game DragonBall Kai: Ultimate Butôden. So far there’s only a few screen shots featured on the website (as seen below) but it’s interesting to note that based on the front page’s character stills the game will cover the entire DragonBall Z storyline up until the end of the Majin Buu saga. Also worth mentioning is the stylized cel-shaded graphics which look quite nice and make good use of the limited power inside the DS.
Ultimate Butôden hits stores in Japan on February 3rd, 2011.
