DESCRIPTION

As its name implies, Dragon Ball: Origins returns the series to its role-playing roots and offers gamers a more light-hearted affair than many of franchise's latter-day titles. Players guide young versions of Goku and Bulma as they travel through a vast landscape looking for the seven Dragon Balls. Players can use Goku's special power pole to solve puzzles, cross rivers, break rocks, and protect Bulma from attacks, while Bulma helps the duo by inventing clever machines and weapons. The game makes full use of the DS' capabilities, letting players use the touch screen and stylus to direct Goku and guide him in combat. Gamers can upgrade both characters by finding "heart pieces" that increase health and defeating enemies to acquire "skill orbs." Players also have the opportunity to join in the Martial Arts World Tournament, where they will come across familiar characters from other Dragon Ball games, including Master Roshi, Yamcha, Ox King, and Chi Chi. ~ Christopher Brown, All Game Guide

“Kinda makes me wanna find the uncensored version of Dragonball, even though I'm not a huge fan.”

“Oh Master Roshi you pedophile.”

“If I recall in the cartoon Roshi had a collection of the girly magazines too.”

“Yep, he's a huge pervert.

I wonder, is there even an English dub of a fully uncensored Dragonball?

I don't think there's one for Dragonball Z.”

“I'd like to hear it. I cannot watch the japanese Dragon Ball series because I cannot take the heroes seriously. Their voices are girlishly high. ”

rawkr was the last to comment - over 2 years ago...

“And that is fine for the younger days of Goku, but adult Goku (DBZ) sounding like a five year old...not happening.”

EarthboundX was the last to comment - over 2 years ago...

“Yeah, I've noticed something about anime, and pretty much other types of Japanese media.

The voices pretty much never match the characters at all.

Well, not that I've seen a lot of anime that was still in Japanese, but from the ones I have seen, it just seems that way. ”

“Usually the Japanese versions are better. But in rare cases like DBZ and Cowboy Bebop, it's better to see the English dub.”
