Welcome to the channel! If you're looking for in-depth reviews and analysis of geeky franchises, you've come to the right place. This is the home of Dragon Ball Dissection, perhaps the most exhaustive exploration of the franchise on this platform.
Have you ever wondered how Power Rangers was adapted from Super Sentai? There are videos on that too. Did you know that the first Batman movies were made in 1940s? I've covered them as well. From Final Fantasy to '80s sitcoms to '70s musicals, there is definitely something here for everybody. Be sure to check out the Playlists tab for organized collections of every topic I've created videos for.
New video every other Monday!

Oh, Zeo is back at www.patreon.com/MistareFusion and takes a look at a hilarious episode where OhBlue gets his own crappy robot made of wood but tries to make it work for him, even if Power Rangers Zeo tries even harder to make it something else. But then it's what you've all been waiting for, the introduction of the Sixth Ranger! Ohranger goes for massive lore dumps, while Power Rangers prefers more than a bit of mystery. Who does it better? As a $10+ patron, you can watch right now, a week earlier than everyone else, and find out! Thanks so much for your support!

Over at www.patreon.com/MistareFusion, we welcome you to a whole new universe, both for the characters and for Dragon Ball! When another god of destruction shows up, it completely shakes up what it means to be a denizen of the Dragon World... or Dragon Universe? Dragon Universes? But the fictional world isn't all that's expanding, as the manga itself begins forging an identity and expanding its page count! Enjoy the latest Dragon Ball Dissection now, a week early and ad-free as a $10+ patron. Thanks so much for your support!

It's time for a pointless cannon debate over at www.patreon.com/MistareFusion in the latest episode of Oh, Zeo! Power Rangers Zeo gets ready for some Halloween in July when Adam falls asleep at school and dreams he has to use footage from the first episode of Ohranger! Spooky indeed! See it now as a $10+ patron! Thanks so much for your support!

Over at www.patreon.com/MistareFusion Goku and Vegeta finish off Freeza, and Dragon Ball Dissection finishes up its look at The Resurrection 'F' Arc. What larger themes and topics shake loose from this story? What could have possibly made it better? Does it even fit with Dragon Ball's prior concepts of death? And is this version better or worse than the original movie? You can find out now, a week early, as a $10+ patron! Thank you for your generous support!

Happy Pride! There's a new video over at www.patreon.com/MistareFusion that's a little bit Sailor Moon, a little bit Dragon Ball Z! Even before Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune were "just cousins", American Sailor Moon was making invasive changes. When all the Sailor Guardians die in the finale (spoilers!), but death is a big no-no in your '90s children's television broadcast, what do you do? Can the story even be salvaged?
And how does that compare to Dragon Ball Z, another dubbed anime from around the same time that likewise had to cover up deaths in their final battle? Is there a lesson to be learned here?
This is a very special video to me, and I hope you like it. Enjoy it a week early and ad free as a $10+ patron. Now more than ever, thanks so, so much for your support!

Over at www.patreon.com/MistareFusion Goku and Freeza finally begin their epic battle... again... again... again. It might be something we've seen many times before, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun. You've been asking for it, and it's finally here: The 2013-2015 Dragon Ball Fashion Extravaganza! Modern Dragon Ball introduces so many new fits, and I just have to evaluate them as they strut the runway. Who wins my "Continuity Diversity" award? How about "Most Improved Nerd"? And who wins my coveted "Most Exciting but Ultimately Disappointing Makeovers" award? You'll just have to watch to see me spill the tea! Check it out a week early and ad free right now as a $10 or higher patron. Thanks so much for your support and Happy Pride Month, everybody!

It's Brothers and Bikinis over at Oh, Zeo! Two more sets of comparisons are at www.patreon.com/MistareFusion right now! Somehow, Power Rangers has even more to say about Tommy finding his brother. Hope you still like wandering around the desert. You don't? Too bad. Ohranger goes buck wild with computer tattoos and (almost) buck naked with a beach episode. Who does it better?

The worst twist in history has arrived at www.patreon.com/MistareFusion . Dragon Ball Super rescues a pointless character from the movie and attempts to rehabilitate him. Sadly for poor Tagoma, they lose interest and sacrifice him to the fanservice gods. Add to that a random and empty Piccolo death (spoilers), and it's clear this already-flimsy story has lost the plot. But at least it gives me a good excuse to rant!
Enjoy it now, a week early and ad-free as a $10+ patron and let me know what you think! And as always, thanks so much for your support.

Today marks my 400th video! Thank you so much for helping me get this far, doing something that has brought me and others so much joy! It's been a long road getting from there to here, so I thought it'd be fun to remind myself of the inexorable march of time with a narcissistic photo collage! First, there's baby me from video #2 all the way back in 2009. Then, there's bearded me from video #101 in 2015, followed by all hair me from #201 in 2019. On the bottom row it's-a me from #302 in 2023. And finally, there's today's cute little old me from #400!
Be sure to check out video 400! Oh, Zeo finds a big, red punching robot, and both shows compete for who can introduce it worse! Is it Ohranger giving Miura another tragically dead co-worker? Or is it Power Rangers shoehorning in a magic brother for Tommy? There's only one way to find out! https://youtu.be/5GzHjZ3pGts

Oh, Zeo continues, and it's already time to start selling more toys! There's a big, red robot that punches things, and both shows need to figure out who can introduce it worse! Ohranger simply hits repeat on everything it did to introduce Ohranger Robo by giving Miura another tragic backstory and dead co-worker to deal with. Power Rangers has Tommy looking for family ties. No, not the sitcom. That would be much more enjoyable than this.
Hard as it is to believe, this is my 400th video! Thanks so much for helping me get this far. And now you can watch it at www.patreon.com/MistareFusion a week early and ad-free! And if you're watching along at home, here are the episodes being covered:
Inner Spirit vs. The New Red Robo's Red Impact
and
Challenges vs. Iron Fist 100 Bursts!!
