Kind of funny how most of these clips were from DBZ movies and not the actual show. Didn't know it at the time when this came on in the 90s.

Back in the day when this opening aired, the DBZ movies in this intro (all first 3 movies) *were* aired and split into parts as episodes mixed in with the others. So it made perfect sense to include these clips at the time. However near the end of this opening, the android saga bits still made *NO sense* to include. lol

Rock The Dragon was created by Saban. Ron Wasserman who did the Go Go Power Rangers theme sung this. It was used from the start of Dragonball Z which at the time was the Ocean dub. You can clearly hear the original Ocean voices in the intro. After Goku arrived on Namek until the start of the Garlic Jr Saga Funimation also used this intro but then swapped it out for the Dragonball Z theme by Bruce Falconer following this.

I grew up with the German dub, which was true to the original script and music, so seeing this (and the entire US dub) years later was weird. Never was a big fan of the Rock the Dragon theme, but I had to credit them for making an awesome montage and keeping kids wondering when any of the shit seen in the intro was gonna happen in the episodes. Gotta love that one random shot of Piccolo and how only Nappa's clips are from an actual episode. Tenshinhan's hand gestures for the Solar Flare timed with "DRAGON DRAGON" hypes me up tho.

Well, at least you backed up your word. That being said, while the Funi group did use it for awhile, it's easy to mistaken it as solely an "Ocean Group," song, because Funi only used it for about 40 Funimation episodes before they got rid of it.

After awhile in dbz mostly just flurries of kicks and punches and flashing around at speeds undetected by the naked eye and huge power beams and such.. i love dragonball z but dragonball was cooler in that way. And super mostly just sucks its too soft and no horrible deaths or bloody dark battles or evil just fun fights with hardly any ramifications super is way too soft and the power scaling is ridiculous even more so than it already is
