"Rock O' motion" sets the tone with a groove-heavy vibe, while "JUMBA!" and "TROPICA" sound like they wandered in from a completely different genre -- and that's honestly part of the charm. The battle tracks are where things get interesting.
"Flash Battle" and "The Fight Which Can't Be Defeated" deliver the intensity you expect from a DBZ game, but then you get curveballs like "Hey, Mr. Watson" and "Daydream of Normal Summer" that remind you this franchise has always had a goofy, slice-of-life side to it.
"fight in the cell" carries obvious weight given its namesake, and "psychic force" adds a darker, more atmospheric texture to the mix. The opening track "Hikari no Sasu Mirai e!" sets a hopeful, J-pop-infused tone, and the closer "Dragon Ball Party" sends things off with celebration.
Oddball picks like "Underground Organization Powazon" and "CAPSULE Co." show a soundtrack that's not afraid to have fun with its source material. It's a fitting send-off for the PS2 era of Dragon Ball games -- not the most conventional score, but one with a real personality of its own.
