Summary
An upcoming issue of V-Jump has leaked and confirmed the next set of character reveals forDragon Ball: Sparking Zero, which will unsurprisingly focus on the Buu Saga.
Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero might only be a few months away from launchand has hadwhat feels like an unending supply of character reveals, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t more to come. Over the past few weeks, Bandai Namco has shared trailers focusing oneach of Dragon Ball Z’s eras, including the Saiyan, Namek, Frieza, Android, and Cell sagas.
That pattern has made it fairly obvious which trailer we can expect next, but even if we hadn’t already guessed who was being shown off in the future,it’s been confirmed thanks to the upcoming issue of V-Jump leaking ahead of time. Surprising no one, the next Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero trailer will focus on the Buu Saga.
Ultimate Gohan, Super Buu, And Kid Buu Confirmed For Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero
As pointed out by Twitter user DbsHype, the next issue of V-Jump contains a spread focusing on the Buu Saga in Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero. While the feature isn’t quite as revealing as previous leaks have been, it does confirm a number of important characters from the Buu Saga are going to be playable.
The most notable of these is Ultimate Gohan, who can be spotted in a few of the screenshots fighting another new character - Super Buu. These two were always going to make it into the game considering how important they are to the arc, but it is interesting to note that Super Buu has several of his fusion forms, including Buutenks and Buuhan.
It’s possible that the Ultimate Gohan we see in the screenshot is just a skin for the one that’s currently in the game, but considering he’s been a transformation and separate character in the past, it’s likely to be the case here as well.
That’s not all, though, as one of the V-Jump screenshots also confirms that Kid Buu is going to be in the game, which is something I can’t believe we haven’t already seen considering how long ago the announcement was. Kid Buu can be seen doing his trademark Genocide Blast move, which carries over from previous Dragon Ball games.
All in all, it’s not the most surprising character leak to come from Sparking Zero, but it is nice to have it confirmed that Gohan and Buu are getting plenty of representation within the game. Here’s hoping we get to see a bit more of Majin Vegeta and other important Buu Saga characters within the trailer.
