Shocotan Performs Dragon Ball End Theme

Only the queen of all otaku could pull off this many levels of awesome. Japanese gamer-blogger-cosplayer idol Shoko Nakagawa performs her version of the Dragon Ball ending theme, Romantic Ageruyo — complete with Bulma cosplay. Only a true anime fan could deliver such a credible performance of such a timeless classic, and Shocotan delivers in spades.

This is Shocotan’s third music video, and it’s her best to date — less bubblegum, more geekiness. Also check out her other two videos, Brilliant Dream and Strawberry Melody. Read more

Dragon Ball Z Mod for Half-Life 2

Remember Bid for Power, the Dragon Ball Z mod for Quake III? That mod provided spectacularly huge battles even on the old Quake III engine.

Imagine what a Dragon Ball Z mod can do, then, with the far superior physics modeling of the Half-Life 2 engine. That’s what the newly released Dragonball Source can deliver.

This release focuses on “The Saiyan Saga” and features 10 playable characters, each with different skillsets, along with 3 maps. The mod also features 2 game modes, “Capture the Dragonballs” and “King of the Hill”, both incorporated into a 4 way Team DeathMatch environment. The mod also features an RPG element into furthering your characters skills, which’ll also save over time, in case you get disconnected from a server, thus not losing any progress you have made.

Dragonball Source is a free fanmod for Half-Life 2, so go download it now. Hope FUNimation doesn’t go copyright trolling to spoil our fun this time, like they did with Bid for Power.
