Happy New Year! I was originally going to upload the next episode of #secrets in DBZ games, but...yea, I wasn't able to get everything done on time (it's 20+ minutes long). Instead, I hope you enjoy this one! It features every detail and secret we covered thus far in the Tenkaichi series. I also "remade" my first two videos(they didn't have a voice-over), and added a few new details. Hope you enjoy, and happy New Year!

I think Ki charges slower under water because a lot of practices involving Ki/chi revolves around breath control so being underwater would obviously screw that up

Tenkaichi 3 is a prime example of the days when Devs had prime and love for what they created

25:56 I love how Bardock kneeing you in the back is “too violent” but Chiaotzu, Vegeta, and the Saibamen can still literally self destruct

Enemies don't react to Hercules attacks normally however there are 2 methods that can change this. Both methods are in BT3. The first method is entering Max Power mode. In that mode everyone becomes able to stagger enemies with their strikes regardless of size and yes that includes Hercules. The second method is by using Red Potara Hercules which is only available via a password. Red Potara characters were extremely overpowered versions of characters all unlocked via specific passwords. For some reason Red Potara characters were pretty much immune to damage from any version of the Kamehameha.

Captain Ginyu doesn't just "change bodies with a random character" when he uses Body-Switch. He changes bodies with a random character that was on Planet Namek during Namek Saga like Goku (Mid), Krillin, Kid Gohan, Vegeta, etc.

little note on the super armor mechanic is that it doesn't actually take x number of hits to break it, the hit that breaks it will always do so, regardless of if the hits leading into it connect

Came back to say, RIP Akira Toriyama

A like for "Skank"

The amount of detail and love they put in this game is amazing and I can only hope sparking zero has a bit of the same love. Great Job covering it!

The fact that these games are so packed full of love and attention to detail that he can still make content on them is astonishing

As I recall the fight vs Arale in the What If? mode was the single hardest fight in the game. I remember spending nearly an hour passing the controller back and forth with my best mate trying to beat it.

About 27:43, maybe the "evil" detected in Kid Gohan stems from his anger? He HAS lashed out against both Raditz and Frieza before -- and while both are for good reasons (his father being tortured by Raditz, wanting to save Krillin after Frieza's fatal attack), the Devilmite beam may still acknowledge that he tried to hurt others out of his anger. Which is strange, since in the Saiyan Saga he could stay on Nimbus after Nappa tried to stomp on him?? The hole only goes deeper 😅

The reason for Ki charging slow underwater is because Ki requires breathing (and this is demonstrated in what ki is based on, the philosophy behing Aikido and QiGong), but Saibamen being plants, effectively breathe water. Also, GT Goku does not say "Taiyoken" for solar flare, it's a dubbing error. He in fact says "Kaioken". As for Roshi, in japanese he is usually referred to as "Kame Sennin" which translates to "Turtle Hermit". Generally, only his students refer to him as "Muten Roshi". Anyway, thanks for the upload KaDazee, and happy new year!

The amount of attention to detail this game has in even the smallest stuff is so cool...if a bit frustrating at times, lol. I remember I loved playing Meta Cooler as a kid but I hated that he couldn't charge Ki.

My best guess as to why Goku (Mid) has Meteor Combination is because they already made Goku (Early)'s moveset, but still wanted to include the move, so they put it on the next chronologically closest Goku.

A FULL MOVIE ABOUT THESE DETAILS IS THE PERFECT NEW YEARS GIFT. Thanks Shenron!

26:07 Ik the real reason why the removed tht 😭😭Bardock backshots is crazy

The unseen oozarus all having slight character model differences is actually pretty awesome.

There is a small detail you haven't mentioned about super attacks that you can charge, you can actually aim them. It's been a while since I played the Tenkaichi games but I still remember being able use one of the analog sticks to fire the beam off target, with how far you hold changing the angle which allows you to when playing with friends mess with them if you know how they normally try to dodge a beam.

Fun fact I noticed: in Budokai games Piccolos nails are completely purple, but in Tenkaichi games they only have a purple outline. Likewise in the mangas color version, Piccolos nails are completely purple, whereas in the anime they are white.

28:55 I could be wrong, but I think the joke is that it should canonically be something pervy/dirty on the screen since it's Master Roshi's television. But since that wouldn't be allowed because of ESRB rules, we just get a troll face easter egg instead. It's really impressive to have a game that thinks of virtually everything like that!

20:15 I haven't played Tenkaichi in like a decade and a half. And I still remember this little feature. I ran the Max Stat build with Halo and "Insert Colored Aura" to get Max Stats,half Energy usage and Max energy at start of the fight. Since my brother's and I like playing as Goku and Vegeta, we always saw the halos above their heads. (In Tenkaichi 2)

lets be real tenkaichi 4 will never have so much love and details, let alone the amount of characters and content at launch. prepare for like 15 season passes

You know it's a good new years eve when kadazee posts and the goat hit us with a 1 hour special

Ayy! Proud of how hard you've worked and the effort you've put into to carve your niche on the platform and within the fandom. I love seeing all the different kinds of cool and minor design details you compile for these vids. Thanks for sharing your passion and effort with all of us!

1:04:40 If we consider Instant Transmission a factor that satisfies the requirement for the super fast movement, then one thing I can think of that could also behave in a similar way would be the connection of some of these characters to the otherworld, like Dabura being the king of demons. If he resides in the demon realm but can walk the regular mortal realm, he would probably need to be able to just pop in and out of these realms in fashion similar to Instant Transmission. I don't remember enough about some of the other characters from original Dragon Ball or movie characters like Tapion, but considering that these characters also have some sort of link or relation to demons, the idea could be that they also possess some sort of realm hopping ability. Which honestly is a pretty massive stretch as far as their abilities go, I wouldn't consider the ability to move from one realm to another to function similar to Instant Transmission but more like flipping between those realms. Overall, I think it's already a bit questionable if Instant Transmission would be usable for this sort of rapid movement, we have seen it being used for simple relocation moves sometimes even in close proximity to the target, but Goku (as well as probably Cell?) requires a bit of time to find the target he wants to teleport to, so it probably wouldn't be as practical as "dodging" as Instant Transmission would then be a deliberate act and not a reflex or highly trained reaction. Alternatively, there could have been some overarching idea for the super speed movement but it kinda got lost when multiple people were handling different characters when they were making the game, so mistakes were made. Someone could have looked at the available moves in the game and add it to a character just to make it more varied, forgetting there was some sort of point to the super speed, or the level of assumed power could have been forgotten or misunderstood. Like someone saw that Mecha Cooler had it while his regular character did not have it, so it was given to Frieza as well without knowing or realizing why exactly Mecha Cooler even had the ability.

Another cool fun fact on Capt Ginyu, while playing him in the cell tournament, you regain a lot more health between battles (you only regain one bar of health in between rounds normally) if you change into a different character using his ult as the game sees you ending with that much health

Damn these games really were labors of love, huh? I mean I have to give the developers credit, they really went all in for being accurate to the source as much as plausible, which definitely gave these games more personality of "You're actually playing the manga/anime"

Goku uses the destructo disc in tree of might as well and its mid jump as he is racing down to catch gohan as he is falling out of Oozaru form.

They likely gave Meteor Combination to Mid Goku because Early Goku already had Kaioken and characters only get 3 slots. It also could represent how mid Goku was a lot stronger in base at the time, if you use it on the Ginyus or Freeza in the story.

I used to think that for Kamehameha x10, you empowered the Kaioken Technique into the Kamehameha, hence why it had a red colour.

Every time I see one of these videos I get even More Hyped For Sparking Zero!

For the teleporting dodge thingy, I would imagine it's enabled if the character is considered by their relative power scaling and place in the story to have been exceptionally fast... Or it might also just be the game's interpretation of the Afterimage technique for some.

There is a weird glitch in Tenkaichi 1 related to voices. If you set the voices to Japanese, and then reset the game, if you go to the options the game technically is in japanese, but in gameplay, Intros, Victory Quotes, Menus, Story Mode Dialogue, Rush Attack (but only at the end of them) and Ultimates are still in English. Normal grunts, the start of rush attacks and the story mode narrator are in Japanese.

Who’s here after hearing about Toriyama💔 Rest in power, the father of shonen anime and creator of everyone’s childhood.

5:31 vegeta and Goku: excuse me what

We've been blessed for the new year with a full hour! Keep up the great content, Kadazee!

So i think when you do Chi-Chi's commentary on Teen Gohan Chi-Chi says "If you enter that something-or-other-room you suddenly grow" which confused me at first, but then realized it was a reference to Gohan going in the Time Chamber. Hope this was helpful!

49:20 General Blue's distaste of women was a small gag during the aptly named General Blue Saga, where Bulma tried getting with him since she thought he was attractive and he made it very clear that he did not like women at all, and depending on what dub you're watching he's either very vocal about being gay, subtly hints towards it, or he doesn't mention it at all. And for the weird interactions with Kid Trunks...That is also (unfortunately) a reference to the Dragon Ball episode "Strange Visitor," one of a few small crossover episodes with Arale's original series where Kid Goku has to get the Dragon Balls back from General Blue after they get stolen. General Blue ends up interacting with a character named Obotchaman, a robot boy from Arale's series, who kindly repairs his car in a scene exclusive to the anime. While Obotchaman is repairing said car, General Blue ends up developing a crush towards him despite the fact that Obotchaman is clearly a child, and attempts to kiss him (ew) and then tries subtly asking him out before Obotchaman declines and leaves, oblivious to what Blue was trying to do. This (understandably) got changed by Funimation's dub, where Blue instead mistakes Obotchaman for his long-lost brother Samuel. Another notable dub change is a European Spanish dub that doesn't change the scene's context but instead changes Obotchaman's gender to female because I guess the people behind this dub cared more about Blue being gay than a pedophile.

Love the content man! Don't stop doing what ya do. Happy new year, can't wait to see your breakdown on the new game when it comes out.

I don't know if it's much of a secret but I recently discovered that if u use Ssj2 Kid/Pre-Teen Gohan against Perfect Cell and finish Cell off with the Father-Son Kamehameha, Gohan face expression will change to look more intense after delivering the finishing blow. This is in Tenkaichi 2 and 3.

GT Goku having dub voice inconsistencies isn't technically a dubbing error. In Japan, Kid Goku has the same voice as adult goku, so the game only has one slot for voice files for that character, so they have to pick and choose whether the character will use Sean Schemmel or Stephanie Nadolny's voicelines for the entire character. This applies to Cell as well

5:20 did not expect that 😂😂😂 18 was not happy

I can only assume that Vegeta is actually just in constant pain with how many times his arms get messed up in the series. He’s gotta have something, I mean he even just holds it when he’s tired out at this point

The amount of attention to detail is really impressive

I dont know if its mentioned, but i remember in BT2 some if not all blasts like kamehame that would charge up (without a cutscene) could be turned left or right before shooting like aiming, but in BT3 all blasts were locked on the target you were not free to aim anymore 😅

Bro this diversity and details makes a game good and thats why dragon ball budokai tenkaichi was one of the best games Ever. Cant wait for sparking zero, cant wait for all. Details, for all characters, for all maps, for all easter eggs, for all transformations, for just everything in this game. We need a legendary opening and old nostralgia music and theme for making it even better.

I hope the bt4 devs see this, im pretty sure most of us notice some lore accurate details but didn't fully realized till other games wasn't as detail driven like the bt games

I don't know if you covered this already or not, but in Tenkaichi Tag Team, I found the 100% Frieza can use destructo disc when you use jump + ki blast

6:42 It was once or twice in the namakian saga as they tried hiding in water & hiding their ki and were struggling as they had to focus on both ki suppression & holding their breath

Potara earrings still last forever but the only reason super saiyan blue vegito defused is because the god power they had causing the earring to break.

I think the reason Kid Gohan had evil in his heart was primarily because of how he was brought up in the early Saiyan Saga Bro got jumped and stolen by Raditz, trapped and forced to watch his father fight his uncle. It's also referencing the fact that Gohan may have felt a hatred for Raditz and it stuck with him throughout. Let's not forget Piccolo also trained him when he was still plotting for revenge, so it may have rubbed off on him. Just a theory though.

Cell just chillin' in his own lane at 40:07, lettin' Tien do his yoga or whatever.

Love these videos and the voice explaining makes the video more enthusiastic. Thank you for taking out your time and effort for our entertainment

And that's some of the reasons why the Budokai Tenkaichi series is the best Dragon Ball video game adaptation for such an attention to details that is super well shown in this video. It's easy to see the people who made the game were huge Dragon Ball fans.

For the rapid movement characters, it is relatively simple wheb you ignore their tier of power and more their in story lore. Mecha Freeza is basically a Freeza at 100% without being burdened by his bulky stamina drain. So his sleeker frame along with his heightened power, along with how fast he was at the time, would allow rapid movement. Spike the Devilman's entire gimmick is magic, his Devilmite Beam is a magic based attack that magnifies and expands evil to destroy his enemies from within. Its not a stretch to say that he is using magic to warp around. Tapion is in a similar boat, being a Magic Knight. So his teleporting is magic in nature. Paikuhan's speed is due to being relative to early Buu Saga Goku, based on the Otherworld Tournament. So he may not have Instanr Transmission, but he does keep up with that tier. Tambourine is the exception among this group, as his inclusion ia purely based on the tone shift he brought to Dragonball. His sudden murder of Krillin gave a sort of tone whiplash from the generally optimistic tone of Dragonball by, in a way, *breaking the rules*.

21:50 "you have to be 18+ to see a cripple"

Hey KaDazee, Rewatching this all, I wanted to kinda confirm that Broly's power suppressor (them crown on his forehead in the first Broly Movie) is the reason why his hair is Blue in his Super Saiyan form, as it's a suppressed version of it. When it's broken and he's shown in his ALT Outfit (based on Second Coming), he has his full powered Super Saiyan form.

5:25 is hilarious for the Quote, I miss the Offensive stuff that would fly by back then and I want more like that now.

One piece is real

Gohan's "evil" was likely a reference to his rage that skyrockets his power

Excellent video!! Tenk 3 is one of my favourite DBZ games and you’ve made me appreciate that series all the more!

The little details and fanservice ps2 era anime game is unmatched Nowadays its all just awesome cinematic moves and arena battle ultimate ninja storm style

Man i love this videos makes me excited for the new one to come out

Early Vegeta and Early Piccolo have super attacks that disintegrate. Vegeta does the rush then gut punches to a ki blast through the opponent. What he did to Zarbon I believe. Early Piccolo grabs the opponent and throws them and blasts them with a mouth beam. What he did to the Saibaman and a few times in the movies, maybe Lord Slug?

This vid is great. Could have just been a list with captions but you did great with the narration and editing. Very nice

@kadazee i really love your content and its makes MY BLOOD BOIL to see your videos gets so many views and soo little subs i am here for you since day one and i am going to support you for as long as your doing your fantastic videos 😁😁

Don't know if it was said later but Fat Janemba is another giant with a rush attack

An hour of KaDazee is a blessing, I love your videos man, happy New Year!

Crazy how it's still so fascinating to return to this game from our childhoods and see what we missed. Great stuff!

Water messing with ki control is probably a nod towards ki's real world inspiration where breathing exercises are common place in meditation

Man it feels soooo weird watching Cell do his grapple on 17. It would be interesting if using his ultimate on 17 & 18 would be a one hit ko that transforms him.

4:30 The fluffy hair is SSJ Grade 1 the sharp rigid hair is SSJ Grade 4 or Master Super Saiyan

Ever wondered why King Vegeta's ultimate is called "Orga Blaster"? First, we should establish that the purple beam he fires at the end of it is his version of a Galick Gun. This is confirmed by his Great Ape form having that beam as an attack, where it is called "Galick Gun". Inventors of certain techniques have "original" at the beginning of their attacks in the game, such as Master Roshi using the Original Kamehameha or Tao Bai Bai using the Original Dodon Ray. Orga-Blaster is short for ORiginal GAlick Blaster.

Rest in peace the actual Goku Akira Toriyama your fan base is one of the most badass manga and anime fans

Hidden Energy is them suppressing their Ki, hence the drain. that's pretty cool

“Your man’s kinda cuteee” *Prowler sound cut*

Love watching these videos ❤ ty

1:25 Damn, the fact that it's subtle makes it so much more brutal. Nappa was one of those dudes who was balding in high school. But for real bros, if you don't currently have hair growing at leasst ~1in/2.5cm from the top of your eyebrows up and around to your butt, then it's all over.

That part with kid Trunks and General Blue was hilarious 😂

So, let's say Ginyu changes bodies with Goku while you're playing with Devil Man, does his special attack works on him?? If it does, that would be fricking insane detail atention!

I love this video. I've rewatched this so many times, please make more hour long fact videos

Aside from some ultimates and chocolate beams, saiyan saga vegeta's rush can disintegrate the enemy too (probably a reference to vegeta killing zarbon on namek). Awesome content by the way!

Can’t wait for you to do this with 4

when they actually cared about the little details in games

The intro went super hard ngl, love that song

Nice video,I really hope they keep those interactions in the future tenkaichi game !

IN TENKACHI 3 FUTURE GOHANS ALTERNATE SKIN HAS 1 ARM

Kadazee I have a question which buttons should be pressed to grab an opponent on the ground and throw him at 1:05:30 in the gameplay of Goku vs Vegeta you perform this action but Vegeta is picking up too quickly so you couldn't lift him and throw him, which button must be pressed to perform this action

I need ALL of this in Sparking Zero 😂 deadass. Somebody please send this video to a developer

The amount of work that must have went into this is insane. Great work!

I know this is a compilation video, but I loved the new intro to this a lot. PS: Can we get a video on Dragon Ball FighterZ in 2024?

1 HOUR of pure joy!!!!!😃😀😄😁

Happy new years( Eve ) , nice list

They were referencing the 3rd universe 7 timeline, where Trunks tries to save Gohan which ends up with Gohan only getting a broken arm, which is also how Xenoverse 1 and 2 started, which is why he has both arms in most games, but certain games like Dragon Ball Sagas include 1st Timeline Universe 7 Gohan (the 1-armed one) , 3rd Timeline Universe 7 Gohan (the one with both arms), or both.

0:45 Janemba also has a rush as his ultimate

For Tenkaichi Tag Team's hidden fusion timer, I always assume it was in place just for the sake of the game being able to be played co-op. Still rare to happen, but I would assume in a versus match with 5 senzu beans for each team, those 5 minutes could pass.

Rest In Peace Toriyama. Good video by the way

In regards to Hercule's tournament in the movie bojack unbound the the last part of the tournament takes place in a fake city
