R.I.P Akira Toriyama, this game was my first introduction to Dragon Ball, I had no idea what Dragon Ball is but the awesome gamplay and first hearing the Kamehameha was the most amazing thing ever, I'm not a die hard fan but Akira Toriyama did so much with the impact he has to the world with pushing past our limits and overcome our struggles and he will be missed forever
@FIGHTFAN777 He never said he didn't watch. And even if he doesn't, I know people who felt overwhelmed and weirded out when he died. It's a really... weird feeling of loss. It's as if we think people are immortal, physically.
R.I.P Akira Toriyama. Not only was this my first introduction to the world of dragonball. It was also the first video game I ever played. Didn't even belong to me, it was one I found left in a cabinet by my mom's ex boyfriend. This game, this world, helped shape the rest of my life. I don't think I would be the person I am today without Dragonball. Thank you, Toriyama. Enjoy your rest, you've earned it.
Had to come here after the tragic news today. This game and this series as a whole had such an impact on my childhood I don't know what to say man... Thank you Akira Toriyama!
This is how I first experienced Dragon Ball. I never watched the show, so this game blew my mind when I was 5 years old. I would run home to play this everyday after kindergarten
I think i was 7 when I got this game but yeah I seen some clips when i was in second grade. I think it was goku beating up majin buu. The fat one in his super sayain 3 form. I played the game to under the series but it was awesome at first time.
I had a similar childhood except I played Budokai 1 and watched the anime when it was on TV. I still remember the first time I ever saw Super Saiyan 1 vs Frieza and SS3 against Majin Buu.
back when i played budokai 2 for the 1st time,i stopped watching dragon ball after Cell saga(Cartoon network ain't airing new episodes) so when i played it,Fck know who's this Goten kid and why he looks like goku, who's this pink chubby Mf,an earing that can fuse people,idk that stuff when i was around 8-9, maybe 10. note: unlucky Us(me and my brothers,yes we gather money to buy the game) we got the official Japanese version,so idk the kid's name was Goten.
@@juan.3077 Unfortunately, I also have some bad associations with Budokai 2. As I had a friend that did a weird gatekeeping thing and didn't teach me how to charge Ki on it when I faced him on the game. So, no, Budokai 3's intro is better.
@@gionova1 No doubt because Kenji Yamamato plagiarized a lot of his music. No idea about Budokai 2 but 3 had a couple clearly plagiarized songs, including the opening theme. Why include the extra opening video if you can't give it the proper music?
My parents got this game for me on my birthday despite them always struggling with money. Seeing this opening reminded me of that and all the feelings I had when this crazy opening played for the first time.
Shoutout to ur parents, my moms bought this game for me back then when I was a kid and it always takes me back. This is the best DB game intro I have ever seen, so much energy that is tied to beautiful memories.
@@Aiden_sama Here's another: look at the last frame of the actual game cinematic where Goku smiles with his mouth wide open, go to a mirror and copy that smile
The way goku and kid Buu are fighting is exactly how the scale of a fight between characters that powerful is supposed to look. No episode or movie of dbz or super has gotten it as close maybe except for the freeza saga
This was back when every game went further with the sagas from Budokai 1-3. So every game you went from being excited to finally play SSJ2, SSJ3, Vegito, Gogeta, and SSJ4. Ah those were the times.
@@fasaketsunami9889 That game was so underrated fr, I just wish the Buu saga was included in it but besides that Burst Limit was good. I kinda miss it sometimes.
I get a little salty everytime i see comments like this, far too clueless. Most ps2 cutscenes are 1000% better than most modern animes for the reason SoniKast explained. There is no logic in 'good for his time'. Amazing how some people are blind to the perfect high level of animation and say things based on the ps2 age.
I'll continue to shed tears, but we will keep fighting throughout the hardships of life. For you Akira Toriyama. We love you. Rest well. We'll see you with open arms on the other side.
Had to Return to this video after the news This was my first ever video game I ever played and it will always hold a special place in my heart Rest in peace Toriyama and thank you for making my childhood and so many fond memory's in all of our lives
The memories man. Playing Dragon World with all those great battles and what if dialogues. The movesets that included those piece em up flurry supers (every Dragon ball game should have those). Only thing this game was missing was a cinematic story mode, beam struggles and teleport mechanics during gameplay. If you could take the best of Budokai 1 and 2 and mix it with 3 and Infinite World you got potentially the best DB game in my mind. The piece em up flurry supers from 1 and 2 along with the beam struggles, teleportation mechanics, and cinematic ultimates from 3 all in one game and it's pretty much complete. Everything else is just icing on the cake.
I did too. It was interesting and amazing. I feel like adding a few more characters to your side of the board (like 1 or 2 more) after the 1st completion would have done the game better in that regard. Otherwise it was the best budokai 2D fighting style I’ve ever played.
1:09 i always thought that was yamacha but then i realized he’s in the next frame so that must be gohan with no shirt underneath and they never edited it since
at 1:04 it's astounding the fight against Kid Buu was at that pace just better animated. Goku fought him for at least 10 to 15 minutes like the Kai planet
The first DBZ game I played and apart from almost pulling my hair out in frustration over that last Kid Buu Fight, I loved this game and this Intro definitely helped
R.IP Akira Toriyama este fue el primer juego q jugaba por las mañana y cuando mi hermano jugaba escuchaba este temazo y me levantaba a jugar gracias toriyama por darme una bonita infancia
1:00 -- 1:07 As a kid these were the best 7 seconds of my damn life. Hell this whole opening was amazing but that sequence in particular just blew my mind. The fluidity of the movement, the speed, the impact of the hits, the way it matched the song's tempo, that sequence right there just got me so hyped every time I saw it.
i remember getting Budokai 2 for the holidays back in like 2004 for the Gamecube, my cousins and i played it all night, it was one of the best gaming experiences i've ever had.
I get tears in my eyes when I watch this. This was my first DBZ game and easily my most played PS2 game. I watched this so much when I was a kid and I have so many great memories with this game
They don't even wait for build up just start off hype. I mean imagine u rushing to pop this baby in on Christmas day and the TV opens up with this. So blessed
Omfg in 1:10 i just realized that they didn’t drew gohan the blue undershirt so I thought he was yamcha. All these years and I never noticed this till now

@@jameer7565tf you mean fake pokemon? Dragonball is older than pokemon
@@nabilsn164 I was like 9 dude.

Rest in peace, Toriyama-sensei. And thank you. 🙏
That shot of Vegeta and Goku becoming Vegito will always give me chills
And the song behind it is built up at this point too
Yes bro! Also my favorite part of the intro.
The way they fuse instead of the traditional tip touching looks much cooler
One of the best intro in DBZ PS2 games.
yeah. the game is wack imo but its cool at the same time. its weird.
Take away "dbz" "one of" and "ps2" lol
Budokai 3 is better. (Instrumental especially. Prove me wrong.)
@@serge263 i dont have to. Deep in your heart you know it's only second place next to this.
@@juan.3077 Unfortunately, I also have some bad associations with Budokai 2. As I had a friend that did a weird gatekeeping thing and didn't teach me how to charge Ki on it when I faced him on the game. So, no, Budokai 3's intro is better.
It was fun unlocking this movie in budokai 3 back in the day, since I never played budokai 2. It’s so catchy.
You can do that?
Yes. It is possible by making a wish for the end credits in DBZ B 3
not in the remastered version unfortunately
@@gionova1 No doubt because Kenji Yamamato plagiarized a lot of his music. No idea about Budokai 2 but 3 had a couple clearly plagiarized songs, including the opening theme. Why include the extra opening video if you can't give it the proper music?

Ah brown-haired Vegeta that takes me back. Also in the final part of the outro it looks like Trunks farted and hopes nobody notices.
😂

@@wrylysmiley :)
Vegeta always had dark brown hair.
@@battlememesbyomari25 all full blooded Saiyans have spiky, black hair
From this point 0:53 it really give me goosebumps
Same
The build up to the piano
@@rexnightingale855 agree
there are some incredible chords in there
Same , glad to see more people feel it❤️
0:39 so beautiful. We really need to get a long flying evening sequence in the anime at some point.
This and budokai 3 we played non stop
Aaah Hironobu Kageyama voice is amazing and so nostalgic since he sung alot of my childhood show
The best Dragon Ball game opening ever!
The game that solidified me as a Dragon Ball fan back when I was 6, thank you so much Toriyama ❤️
The way goku and kid Buu are fighting is exactly how the scale of a fight between characters that powerful is supposed to look. No episode or movie of dbz or super has gotten it as close maybe except for the freeza saga
My thoughts exactly. Probably my favourite piece of animation in all of Dragon Ball
The Broly movie does this. Just the moon isn't being bullied again lol
It gets even more impressive when you know that the planet they're fighting on is 10x more resistant than earth or something along those lines
Dude !!!!! I keep going back to watch it I mean those 2 are going AT IT !!!
@@Tarby. fucking crazy !!
This was back when every game went further with the sagas from Budokai 1-3. So every game you went from being excited to finally play SSJ2, SSJ3, Vegito, Gogeta, and SSJ4. Ah those were the times.
This is How I feel a Dbz Burst Limit 2 Would have been Like. It would be Based on the Buu Saga like This Game
@@fasaketsunami9889 That game was so underrated fr, I just wish the Buu saga was included in it but besides that Burst Limit was good. I kinda miss it sometimes.
That quality back in the time was on point. Way too far ahead.
And yet animation quality has gone down the drain over time. I just don't understand it.
@@TheConuresrule This has a bigger budget due to being the intro of a game and not an entire series they have to make weekly
I get a little salty everytime i see comments like this, far too clueless. Most ps2 cutscenes are 1000% better than most modern animes for the reason SoniKast explained. There is no logic in 'good for his time'. Amazing how some people are blind to the perfect high level of animation and say things based on the ps2 age.
@@staysharp2453 yeah
@@TheConuresrule because it's just and opening for a video game and not a full 100+ episode show?
Rest in peace legend, Akira Toriyama
This is so epic and nostalgic, I love this
Agreed
RIP AKIRA TORIYAMA
Best Vegito fusion scene ever
the way he bursts out is fucking awesome
Supaaa Vegito !
Man, this hits me in such a good way. Me & my friends everyday after school loved this game series!
My first dragon ball game, I can never thank him enough for the world he brought to life, rest in peace Toriyama-san
I'll continue to shed tears, but we will keep fighting throughout the hardships of life. For you Akira Toriyama. We love you. Rest well. We'll see you with open arms on the other side.
All of the 3 Budokai intros
This one is my most favorite
Farewell Toriyama
You are number 1
In the hearts of millions
Had to Return to this video after the news This was my first ever video game I ever played and it will always hold a special place in my heart Rest in peace Toriyama and thank you for making my childhood and so many fond memory's in all of our lives
Has been a long time since I've played this game. But the opening still bangs. Can't stop replaying it.
always goosebumps.. one of the best gaming intros of all times!
This was my first DBZ games for PS2 Ahh the memories.
Playing every day without any problem
This was also my first DBZ game, but I played this on gamecube
Still the best DBZ game IMO

I did too. It was interesting and amazing. I feel like adding a few more characters to your side of the board (like 1 or 2 more) after the 1st completion would have done the game better in that regard. Otherwise it was the best budokai 2D fighting style I’ve ever played.
Here honoring toriyama Sensei his beautiful world brought so much fun to my childhood and adult life
Rest in peace, Toriyama.
This is 100% the best intro ever made for a DBZ game. Glad I still own this game for the PS2. I'll never get rid of it, tbh.
The memories!! This was my first dragonball z game as a kid!
Same!
Same here, man this really takes me back. I was in elementary school.
Tmb foi meu primeira jogo de dbz que joguei
1:09 i always thought that was yamacha but then i realized he’s in the next frame so that must be gohan with no shirt underneath and they never edited it since
Same haha
Yeah, he's wearing it at 1:21 too. For some reason Gohan, is wearing a Turtle School gi...without the Turtle kanji.
@@jasonhulettIt's the purple gi he wears in Super Hero/early Buu saga but colored incorrectly
This game changed my life
I like how this op tells a story while showcasing in-game characters and features.
1:09 Gohan turned into Yamcha.
Rest in Piece!
For me the greatest Dragon Ball Opening ever!
Thank you Akira Toriyama Sensei ❤️
The nostalgia be hitting hard!
RIP Akira toriyama 🐉♥️
Thank you for everything Mr Toriyama
Still the single coolest depiction of the fusion into Vegito ever. It even beats out the one in Kakarot for me.
I still have this game.
at 1:04 it's astounding the fight against Kid Buu was at that pace just better animated. Goku fought him for at least 10 to 15 minutes like the Kai planet
This intro always gets me real hyped up, the best intros tbh
tbh this intro was the best if not 2nd beat of all the dbz games 🥶
That little peak of Vegito has always been the greatest thing.
The first DBZ game I played and apart from almost pulling my hair out in frustration over that last Kid Buu Fight, I loved this game and this Intro definitely helped
That fight is brutal
My First ever DBZ game so many good memories in the PS2 man. 😭😁😁
Goku and vegeta winding back their punches, only to collide, blast up and turn into vegito is so cool
I wish i got to play these games, to grow up in the 2000s.
I still have this game lol 👍🏾
That shit go so damn hard I remember rebooting the gamecube just to watch this intro even the menu sound design is top tier in this game 👌

Not only that but we need Beam clashes back
this was my first dragon ball game ever! aaaaahh memories of childhood
So many memories of this game.
Now... I need the best budokai opening ! BUDOKAI 3
I have never listened this video with headphones. It’s amazing how clean and super pleasant to listen to !
i remember getting Budokai 2 for the holidays back in like 2004 for the Gamecube, my cousins and i played it all night, it was one of the best gaming experiences i've ever had.
0:04 to this day goku and vegeta duking it out for a few seconds is my favorite part of the video.
Keep it up with the childhood nostalgia train, BloodyBladez.
I'm not ready to get off yet!
AAAAAAAH!! I was looking for a HD version like this for years! It's AMAZING!
I LOVE your work and I feel very grateful! Thank you so much!!
I get tears in my eyes when I watch this.
This was my first DBZ game and easily my most played PS2 game.
I watched this so much when I was a kid and I have so many great memories with this game
They don't even wait for build up just start off hype. I mean imagine u rushing to pop this baby in on Christmas day and the TV opens up with this. So blessed
One of the few opening themes i would not skip when wanting to launch the game haha
The Budokai saga is the one with the best openings, I just would like you to upload the opening of Budokai 3, which is one of the best
My favorite intro for the dragonball games. That riff goes hard lol
This nostalgia trip man
THE KING IS BAAAACK
My PS2 Is Still Playing This.
This is the absolute peak of absolutely everything..
Omfg in 1:10 i just realized that they didn’t drew gohan the blue undershirt so I thought he was yamcha. All these years and I never noticed this till now
Crazy
I think u must be talking about 1:21
This is the best intro of all dragon Ball games !!!
Classic. My kids WILL see this and know what good childhood was all about
so your kids aint allowed to enjoy what they want???
It was fun back in the days when PS2 did the most.

Memories unlocked 👍
Goku and Buu tearing the Earth apart while fighting is the best part of this intro. So cool
