Dragon Ball in 2012 

it is impressive how strong the dragon ball community was even during a period when there was almost no official DB content beside the occasional videogames every 3 or so years, no wonder why shueisha had dollar signs in their eyes when toriyama decided to create new DB stuff again lol also i dont blame you for not being able to pronounce my name haha, it is literally just gibberish

Man it’s insane how much DB stuff we get now, pre-battle of gods DB community is very nostalgic for me

absalon was goated. sick video cuz

HONESTLY a Tenkaichi 3 HD remaster would've been a godsend for me at that time, tenkaichi 3 on wii was notoriously hard for me to get at retail as they stopped production pretty quickly cause around the early 2010s I've never seen it at retail but I did have a PS3 and the closest thing to Tenkaichi 3 was the raging blast games but honestly would've rather had BT3 so childhood me was pissed when that this never happened.

This whole thing was insane nostalgia nice video indeed bro

Happy this showed up in my recommendations, especially since 2009-2012 were the most nostalgic years for me to be a dragon ball fan during that time

Love these type of series videos

Such a well made video!! Love it man keep at it 🙌🙌🙌

This brings me back. Cause this was the year I got into Dragonball, and man I remember so much of this.

Really good video keep it up these kinds of videos are great would you consider doing some for earlier time periods like 2007+ covering stuff like DB Online, the early stages of the Abridged, Kai announcements, Yo Son Goku special, and so on?

awesome video series

Those multiverse vids were so good almost forgot about it

this might be the single most nostalgic video on the internet for me

Now this is pretty clever DB content niche! Not many youtubers cover the different eras of DB fanbase.

this video had me overflowing 🙏😊

This is like Kanzenshuu tier. So much details and information. Its like I’m back there hell yeah 😎 ❤ 🙏

Rhymestyle in that video sounds like a completely different person 😂 Also the KSI burst limit video was so funny to me

Every now and then, I do think back to those times. Even Absalon brings back profound memories for me.

TO BE FAIR Super (SAI)-yan is the phonetically correct way to pronounce the word. Also the EU version of Budokai 1 never had an English dub. It was always English subbed. November 2nd 2002 is the correct release date (for Europe), but that version didn't have English voices. It wasn't until December 3rd 2002 when the game was brought to America where they dubbed it in English.

January 1st is your birthday damn bro, also new sub alert!

I miss 2012 so much, Pure nostalgia

This era I was 8, i was actively on youtube watch EVERYTHING

The guy in the dbz kinect commercial pronounced Saiyan right lmao. If anything we're pronouncing it wrong

Good idea for a video

4:14 I remember that, I have both versions of raging blast 2

Its wild how sparking omega might have actially been sparking 0 at some point in development

I didnt realize how popular DBZ was 😭😭

has a recent fan of db these are interesting to watch

i watched all of dragon ball for the first time in 2012 honestly was a pretty good year to get into the series

just found this video series, it's really interesting to remember what the "dark ages" of dragon ball were like, recaps like this also help a lot in showing people who got into dragon ball through things like abridged or super what things used to be like before abridged exploded in popularity around this time and battle of gods came out the original broadcast of kai went out like a wet fart, having ended prematurely with the android saga and the final episode didn't even air on TV in the US, it was exclusive to nicktoons's website for a time, and you could tell that toei had barely any interest in continuing it, even the buu saga was only originally planned to be developed solely for the overseas market because of kai's terrible ratings and sales in japan, there was no true spark of popularity for this franchise again outside of abridged until battle of gods was released things were really rough for old dragon ball fans, hoshi especially is one of the most obnoxious things from this era because every few months people would say that it's coming any day now using new footage they took from the heroes trailers, I remember people even using the dragon ball online promotional trailers as "footage" of the series, it's similar to what people do now with the fake news about the super anime returning, but hoshi never had any actual ground to stand on for people to actually believe in it outside of desperation for new content

Man I still remember Dragon Ball stuff around this time and I was only 11. Seriously tho I feel like the Dragon Ball community is the biggest anime community in the world that spreads THE MOST misinformation to this day and it's pretty crazy.

So basically my whole dragon ball childhood outside the main series was 2012 lol

Australia also had no dub for the Budokai 1 HD Collection.

I miss these days. Watching full dbz movies on yt and praying for DBZ news 😂

2012 Rhyme sounds like a different person but older than current Rhyme

Mellavelli goated fr

I was expecting to see TheStormPow or ZZtostie in here

"MY PURFECT FORM"

2012 was such a weird year .first year out of highs school and totaly lost dont rmemebr anything from it honeslty

Good times

I didn't expect Rhymestyle

Oh the halcion days of pre BOG and Super. Back when there were 4 forms and three series. Channels like Qaaaman, Blackenfist, and especially Geekdom hadn't come around yet. I miss these old days honestly. ALSO Death Battle released the original Goku vs Superman video in 2012

2012 is peak if u disagree ur wrong

Chaos punishment Was the GOAT😭. So many memories

January 1st is my birthday to

Portuguese Vegeta: 😳😩🥵🥵

4:58 ...but he said it right. What's the issue?

I think DBZ Absolon ended up being on Toonami

Ah yes, the days before DB returned.

ssj 5

I LOVED Absalon as a kid!!! ...But if I'm being honest with myself as an adult, the story is all over the place 😞

Real DB FAN

god damn dragon ball hoshi, what a deep cut lol

plese do 2013

They were right just a few years off 😅 2:51

Dragon Ball Absalon is my proudest voice acting credit, but I wouldn't join the series until 2017.

6:34 so basically EU got a better version of the game

Dragon Ball Online..

Shit. I'm down with a Japanese dub of Budokai

wuzgoinoneverybodyrhystylehere

2012 was a pretty good year, I think everything went to shit after that honestly, especially music, and then Sandy Hook and whatnot at the end of the year, just horrible. As far as RU-vid goes it was way past its prime though, 2006-2008 were peak.

In 2012, people thought the world would end. You forgot that :P

Back when live action superman was still better than goku

Portugal mentioned, WE HAVE THE BEST VEGETA CARALHO 🇵🇹

Dragon ball absalon was what was needed at a time where super did not happen yet
