Summary
If it wasn’t already clear,Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zerois shaping up to be the game ofDragon Ballfans' dreams. That’s becausewhen it releases later this year in October, it’llboast a story mode complete with “What If” battles, theability to create and share custom battles, as well asmanga-exclusive moves, among other features.
More so,its roster will be among the largest in a Dragon Ball game to datedue to the inclusion of Dragon Ball Super characters. That’s not even including the season pass,which will add both Dragon Super: Super Hero and Dragon Ball Daima characters.
That said, some stealthy fans have discovered that, beyond all of that,Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero! might have the most accurate “Angry Kamehameha” in all of Dragon Ball video games. Its faithfulness, according to fans, is in line with the anime, adding another flair to what is already shaping up to bea worthy successor to the Budokai Tenkaichi series.
Goku’s “Angry Kamehameha” Is The Most Anime Accurate Move
Over onReddit’s r/tenkaichi4 subreddit, a fan shared a video of Goku’s “Angry Kamehameha” finisher in action, calling it the “most faithful” move. And they’re not wrong, because the special is very anime-like. Check it out:
Goku even goes as far as to call Frieza a fool, just like he did in the anime. More so, the Kamehameha changes from its signature blue hue to a fiery orange as Goku powers up, showcasing his rage against Frieza. Here’s the anime video for comparison:
It’s an impressive feat to get it that close to the anime, and fans rightfully took notice.One user wrote, “This game is so beautiful that it offends me that I can’t play it right now. I’m going to drop so many hours playing this ***.” Meanwhile,another user chimed in, writing, “This is actually an example where I think this move looks better even than it does in FighterZ.” Finally,another user wrote the very appropriate, “Looks insane,” and we’re obliged to agree with them.
The “Angry Kamehameha” has been a staple move in Dragon Ball video games over the years, and depending on the video game in question, its accuracy has been spotty. Some of that is due to how the game plays, like FighterZ, while in other cases it’s because of hardware limitations. These are some of the ways Goku’s “Angry Kamehameha” has been portrayed across the years:
As you can tell, they all retain the spirit of the anime, but what sets Sparking Zero apart is not only how realistic it looks, but the little things, like the color change and Frieza’s reaction. All of these little things are certainly adding up, and fans are taking notice at every turn. One might even say that their hype levels are over 9,000, and we’re right there with them.
