Why wasting time with that shit nobody out of US want when they can remix Cha-la, We Gotta Power or Limit Break x survivor and make the whole planet happy?

Watch original Dragonball if you want "the full story", you can appreciate when Piccolo, Yamcha, Tien, Yajirobe, etc. were all genuine threats and it was a simpler, more adventurous time.
If you want the meat of the franchise watch DBZ Kai, don't even think about watching non-Kai at this point, maybe go out of your way to watch the driving school episode because it's hilarious.
Then watch the Battle of the Gods movie and Return of Frieza, and jump into Super directly after those two arcs. Or if you want to watch Super dubbed like the good lord intended, just watch it up to where it's dubbed right now and skip the films.

Have someone from the opposing team slap Bulma, and suddenly Vegeta smacks the shit out of the enemy team single handedly in 5 seconds.
Absolutely. No dumb characters gimmicks, let the competitive scene have the series for once.

Scalpel dude from Chapter Black, you could do Sensui's other cronies too
Several cool people in the Dark Tournament (specifically wind guy, drunk guy)
Doesn't need a 25 person roster like Dragon Ball
it also would never exist but yea
Gohan calls himself a Z fighter in ep. 167 of the Funi dub, but it's not in the original. Scanning through the episodes right now and I can't find the Japanese announcer saying it either, but in the dub he calls them the Z warriors a lot.
YYH would nicely fill a 15 person roster, that'd be totally fine for a 1v1 game to be honest.
I believe I've heard "Zetto senshi" before, probably in Kai.

The Final Chapters left most of that HS stuff in and you still have to contend with fake Namek and Garlic Jr. redux for the OG version.
Found a write-up on pvplive of the Twitch stream with the producer Tomomi Hiroki. Some clips from the Twitch stream are also included.

Does she even fight? Also, a smaller roster is fine.

I'm attempting to watch all the series starting from DBZ (original not Kai). I started at the Frieza saga and I'm coming towards the end of the Cell games saga after about 2 years on and off. So yeah, there's an absolute shitload to gorge yourself on if you want and it's daunting if you try and watch it all through in a short space of time. Don't do that as it'll become a chore and you won't enjoy each episode.
If you take the approach of watching in batches when you find the time the experience can be a real pleasure. The world of DB is such a joyful one to be engrossed in.

Why did you skip the Saiyan Saga?
Very rarely, but it does happen. She'd basically be a goofy gimmick fighter.

I vastly prefer the original to Kai
Pacing is definitely hard to consume in bulk but I like the original western music and voice acting. The music is a huge part of the series' identity to me. I understand if people think it's corny and prefer the Japanese stuff but the Falconer stuff rules in its own way

I would cry tears of pure joy. I know it would never happen, but damn that would be sick.
How about you show us.
That's the one time I don't give a fuck about getting the show's OST into a game.
Have you heard the Arcsys OST before ? It's pure fire. They'll do DBZ justice.
Dumb character/series gimmicks that are true to the source material do tend to happen a lot in Arc's collab fighting games, though. It's part of the reason their Hokuto no Ken game was so amazing!
We wouldn't have stuff like Freeza's dual slicers coming back to hurt him, apparently a thing that can set up his "You Will Die At My Hand!" wakeup super, if there wasn't a concerted effort on Arc's part to balance fanservice and competitive play!

so not a single honest comment mentioning how the dragon ball anime just streches scenes to ridiculous levels, to the point where, when compared to the manga, nothing happens for like 10 minutes?
read the manga.
I guess Kagari is a mod for a reason.
Not everyone likes manga man. But yeah, the pacing in the manga is great, and I love how Toriyama draws action.
Here you are: https://youtu.be/oCTF6RSsnBM?t=5m13s
Thank you.
Am I the only one who's going to suggest watching Kai with the Yamamoto soundtrack?
Yes, the guy was sacked for plagiarism, but I still can't imagine watching the series without The Formidable Warrior or The Heroic Face Off hyping me up in the background. Kikuchi and Faulconer have their own charms, but Yamamoto is still the only guy who I felt really nailed what modern Dragon Ball should sound like.
Ah, well. Missed opportunities and all that...

watching the dragon ball anime reminds me of watching Captain Tsubasa, another great example of an anime where you just feel that nothing is happening. How many chapters do we need to cross the field?

can you tell us where did you see that?
Relative to the manga, OG DBZ is pretty dang slow.
Black Water Mist and the Otherworld Tournament are sick though. I wouldn't advise skipping them even if it is filler.

the anime stretches scenes to ridiculous levels to make it easier to animate, show more ads and to not overlap the manga's story timeline
but I thought DBZ Kai was supposed to cut the filler and pace scenes better
That's from the twitch stream.
combo worth making a gif for at 7:45 (he/she misses the last part, but still)
edit: golden frieza combo at 8:30 (includes an awesome "desttructive finish")

Has there been any info on single player content? I'd love a story mode, even though it'd probably just be, well, DBZ.

Guessing SSJ3 activates when Goku's the last character left on the team.
I think it's a glitch because he has the same aura as SSJ3 and he "detransforms" at the end except nothing changes...
They said there will be a lot of single player content.

"We chose these 6 fighters for the demo because their fighting styles are the most standard, and have the most orthodox moves"

Answering the question about background music:
"There is a very concious effort to tap into the original anime, whether it's voice, sfx or bgm, there's going to be some recognisable and iconic moments from the anime that people will be able to recognise I think when characters come on screen."
good to hear this

A DBZ game is one of the top games shown at E3. What a time.

I hope it isn't a glitch because SSJ3 is hideous and should be removed from the history books.

The interviewer asked about other forms of Cell & Buu and if those characters could transform into them, and they said they want to stay true to the source material and only have characters able to transform if it makes sense for them. Of course not mentioning of other forms of Cell or Buu were in the game at all.
