Dragon Ball Z : Fusions

The plot was great. The characters were great. And there was so much humor (mainly from Pai-Ku-Han) that you could just burst! I liked the animation and the way of defeating Janenba's force-field by cursing it. The movie was a laugh-riot.

This is perhaps the greatest of the Dragon Ball Z movies. This one being the 12th one, Akira Toriyama had a lot of previous skill. Perhaps the 13th movie, Dragon Fist Explosion, is a little bit better than this, but they are both great. Perhaps the best part is when Janemba is fat and nice and junk, but then gets interesting. Be sure to see this movie, you can get it at a Japanese videostore or buy it off of eBay... Hope this helps!!!

If your an animation fan you've probably watched or have heard of Dragon ball Z. If you are one of those people I definitely recommend that you see this DBZ movie. This movie is filled with humor, action, and a lot of new things. The action in the movie is total nonstop action, and the humor is pretty funny. Animation fans will definitely be pleased by this movie, I know I was. The many new things include new fusions, new characters, and new enemies. There are many instances where the humor is very funny. The movie has just about every character in Dragonball Z. Again this movie will be great for animation lovers like me. I give this movie 9 stars out of ten.

This was a fun one. For a film that seemingly has the whole universe in chaos, the focus and direction are quite crisp. I really like how the Z fighters are fighting simultaneously in different realms without even knowing it. Janemba starting out as childish threat is a great fake-out and also a lot of fun. His dimensional powers make for some awesome and challenging fights for Goku. Vegeta's arrival is abrupt but welcomed as he never fails to give me chills. "I can't run Kakarot. If I did, then life too would be a h**. If I run, life will be a h***. If I die, it will be a h***. So I only have one choice. I'll do it (fusion)" Goku and Vegeta's conversation inside the spikes is some of their most heartfelt writing to date. Janemba finally finds them but my boy Pikkon intervenes (who somehow discovered Janemba's weakness is bullying? 😂) And finally we get to see some fusion but my is it glorious. This goes so hard I ran it back 5 times!

"I am not Goku or Vegeta! I am Gogeta! It's over, Janemba! I've come for you! Every force you create has an echo! Your own bad energy will be your undoing!" 🤘 🤘 The score, animation, and voice acting are perfect. Also I love Goten and Trunks cosmically just being like "Hey our dads fused. Shall we?"

"Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn" (Or whatever you want to call it) is the 12th DBZ movie, (Depending on whether you count the specials or Video Games). It follows the story of the creation of a new more powerful monster, made up of all the negative souls of the afterlife. With that barrier down all the dead rise up and cause havoc. And Goku and Vegeta must work together to beat this new monster, Janenba.

This movie marked a new high point of quality for the DBZ movies. It is my favorite of all the animation styles. Some people may prefer "Super Broly", "Battle of Gods" or "Super- Superhero", but for me, this is the best these movies have ever looked. The fight scene between Janenba, Goku and Vegeta is full of great moments.

The B-Plot that they cut to also has some good moments. Including Goten and Trunks taking down a particular evil villain who got released from Hell.

On the downside, Janeba doesn't have much of a personality, he is just the big bad guy the heroes have to fight. Janenba follows too many of the same plot points that Majin Buu follows in the series.

The way the fight ends is also pretty underwhelming, it just ends too quickly. And perhaps they spend too much time on the fighting of evil henchman from Hell, that could have been spent on the more plot relevant stuff.

Nerd rant stuff: Shenron is completely wasted in this story and where was Cell?

If only they could fuse the best elements of this movie, with the best elements of another DBZ movie. Other than those gripes, this is an all-around good time. I highly recommend it to any DBZ fan.
