DBZ characters and Danmaku

[The_real_cal_howard]

Do characters like Piccolo and Vegeta, who spam ki blasts like it was a bullet hell, qualify for this ability?

 

[Saikou_The_Lewd_King]

Aren't most of those straightforward shots? I mean most danmaku comes from multiples directions, or at least flooding the battlefield.

I used those two particular people because Piccolo used his Hellzone Grenade to do something say, Asgore would do, and Vegeta did his DAKKA DAKKA DAKKA against Frieza.

Can you send a scan/link? Just to see. Dakka Dakka is usually like a machine gun. A lot of bullets, but in a straight position. Not usually something danmaku worthy.

It's the abridged version, but it's still the same scene sorta. Starts around 40 sec

There is quite a disparcy in what Vegeta shoots and what comes out, but it looks like danmaku.

Piccolo might be a better example since he throws a bunch of ki balls around his opponent than launches all of them towards the the center.

The difference between DBZ Ki-Spamming and Danmaku is that Danmaku is meant to be elaborate and beautiful.

In games such as Touhou and Undertale, the spammed attacks flow around, circle in patterns, form pictures and plenty of it isn't aimed at the opponent but just at their general direction.

Furthermore, DBZ Ki-Spamming far from reaches the sheer bulk of bullets demanded for Danmaku.

Hellzone Grenade probably could count.

 

[Kaltias]

Hellzone Grenade probably could count.

I mean, this is danmaku. HG doesn't really compare imo

 

[Crzer07]

Does this count?
