Journey to the Worst

The great magic, the great evil, has arrived. Goku and friends meet Dr. Arinsu and her assistants, but both must put aside their differences to battle King Gomah. Break down the walls, break your limits. Solve your problems. Say goodbye to your friends. Go home. And on your way home, remember this song. Hey Shenron, grant my wish I wanna meet Someone amazing again tomorrow Thank you so much to @Me...

We are so close. We really are reaching Journey's end as the battles heat up in the intensely hot First Demon Realm. Our heroes are heading straight to King Gohma's castle, and the final play is set in motion. The final dominoes are falling over, but remember the song we sing. Even when your heart shrinks, And you feel low, Dreams are everywhere. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our aw...

Let the battles truly begin! Goku beat a Tamagami last time, but TWO get knocked down this week. Vegeta displays a power we've never seen from him before, Dr. Arinsu creates two new warriors to fight for her, and Hybis fights for fair compensation for his labor. Amidst these battles, sing the song... The fanfare of courage No holds barred battles The excitement ain't stoppin' Thank you so much to...

The Daima fighters are in a bit of a jam being on the run from the Gendarmerie, but look, Goku isn't too worried about it. This Demon World stuff? Practically a vacation for him. But in these episodes we learn a little more about this realm we are in, along with the fine people who breathe life into the characters we love. It's the second verse of this particular song, but in case you don't know t...

One more time. We have one Dragon Ball show left to cover before we turn the lights off. Clocking in at 20 episodes, our Dragon Ball Daima coverage won't be as long as the others, but the last story Akira Toriyama left us with before his passing has plenty of ideas to discuss. Sing it with us- sing Jaka Jaan, the fanfare of courage. Here comes a New Story Thousands of jabs and silly jokes They're...

What a lousy way to go out. We had so much fun with this show, only for this final arc to go out on such a weak note. There isn't much to reflect on as we reached the final stop in our Super Dragon Ball Heroes journey... but that isn't to say there isn't one last place for us to go. One more work for us to cover. We are reaching the end of this journey through Dragon Ball... I wonder what amazing...

It's time to close out a saga. What will happen to Aeos? Who's stronger, Goku or Goku? Why is Broly here again? So many questions remain, and we'll do our best, but I can't promise satisfying answers. In some cases, I can't promise answers at all. But you'll get some romantic comedy, and that's a rare pull for this show, so let's try to be grateful. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our...

WE ARE SO BACK! WE ARE MORE BACK THEN EVER BEFORE!!! This arc hits so many high highs, and we have a grand ol' time. This episode we discuss Aeos and how cool she is, the jokes that actually work, and clever writing! What a fun time we had! I wonder how the show will disappoint us next!

The Back/Cooked Meter is swinging back and forth wildly as we head into the END of the New Space-Time War Saga. Good Stupid, Bad Stupid, lord I've had my share. Listen to Masako Nozawa train in another dimension while Masako Nozawa buys time, holding off the evil Masako Nozawa! Meanwhile, Masako Nozawa is also here, but only in the background and stuff, and doesn't get to do anything! Maybe she'll...

It's so funny. This run of episodes we watched might be, time-wise, the least amount of time we have spent watching something for this podcast. A paltry 4 episodes. Barely cresting over 40 minutes, and that's if you include the ad spots and OP! And YET. We had so much to say. This show is pretty fun. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our awesome podcast art! Be sure to join the Scanline Medi...

Yes. Yes . STUPIDER! MAKE IT MORE STUPID! On this episode of Journey to the Worst, Super Dragon Ball Heroes fully understands the assignment, and just gets dumb as hell, to our great delight. My boy is back, Fu is on his bullshit, all's right with the world. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our awesome podcast art! Be sure to join the Scanline Media Discord  to discuss this episod...

oh yeah HAHA funny April Fool's Goof, good one Kyrie. Sure year talk about THAT movie. The one that nearly was the final output of the Dragon Ball franchise. The one that is surrounded in infamy from it's terrible production and reception. WELL JOKE'S ON YOU, BUSTER, WE WATCHED THE MOVIE. Turns out we have a lot to discuss. Sources: BUFFY Icon James Marsters in Toronto! Popcorn and Soda Durango's...

And we're back to stage setting for a new saga, and having fun again! Dumb old friends return, there's a loud magic bird- wait, two loud magic birds. But I am afraid we are at the end of our patience with our extremely low quality fan subtitles. There are just limits to how much you can lie about what a character said before we get angry. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our awesome po...

You know, we were so hot on those last episodes. Ok, maybe not hot but damn we had a pretty good time. But yesterday's prices are not today's prices my friend and BOY this series really is starting to drag on us. Maybe I was in a bad mood. Maybe these episodes sucked. Who knows! But we had a good time discussing this show and... American politics? Oh boy. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  f...

Our second Super Hero'd saga begins! Boy, it is inconvenient that Dragon Ball Super, Super Dragon Ball Heroes, and Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero are all distinct and relevant entries in this series. But it's time to make some new friends, so let's put those troubles out of our minds. Introducing arch villain Hearts, his minions Kamin and Oren, and a crystal prison princess named Lagss? Alright, le...

A thus, a new journey begins. Dragon Ball GT, turns out, wasn't the worst the Dragon Ball franchise has to offer. Folks, we may have found the bottom. But like Goku, maybe we can surpass the limits of the bottom of the barrel and dig even deeper into this very wacky show. Join us, will you? Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our awesome podcast art! Be sure to join the Scanline Media Dis...

There is one stop left in this journey. We watched the Dragon Ball GT television special, A Hero's Legacy, a deeply flawed special with some surprising bright spots. After that, we look at our lists and reflect on the journey itself, finally arriving at the last stop in our grand tour. There is more to do, but for now? It's time to get some rest. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our aw...

And here we come to the first of two endings to Dragon Ball GT. A strong set of episodes heralds the farewell of a show that, on reflection, was a very flawed work. There are definitely things to love, and we've done our best to love them. But when all is said and done, was it worth it? Ah, a foolish question- I apologize. I of all people should know: it's not about the destination, it's about the...

Panel 1, Panel 2 energy on this JttW as we start out with two eps that are flat-out bad, and then dip into two pretty good ones- including one of the straight up best sequences of the show so far! You know that Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta? It turns out his popularity overshadowed the show he's from for a reason . Funny guy. Would hate to meet him. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our awesome...

This Christmas, we wanted to do something special. Very little remains of our GT watching, so we decided to take a detour to a surprising connection to the show, The Plan To Eradicate The Saiyans! Join Six and Kyrie as they take a deep dive on a weird OVA where we had a surprising a lot to say about it. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays from us here at Scanline Media. Hope you enjoy this episode...

Have confidence in your earthquakes, if not your show. After a strong start, the Shadow Dragon Saga hits a snag, namedly "these episodes suck." But the end is in sight- there are only so many Shadow Dragons! Hopefully we'll end strong with a cool guy! Various video games I've played suggest we will. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our awesome podcast art! Be sure to join the Scanline...

The final arc of Dragon Ball GT begins! Pan and Goku begin a new quest to recover the Dragonballs, but must defeat the embodiment of each of the 7 balls! What results are some fun gimmick fights, but what else does this arc have in store for us? Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our awesome podcast art!

On this episode, we were joined by Jen ( @spookycutewitch.bsky.social ) and Allen ( @aibrahim.bsky.social ).

Allen hosts some Scanline shows as well, but their primary work is Chatz: A Television Podcast . Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our awesome podcast art!...

Right as we start, we come to an end. The Super 17 Saga comes to a swift close, and the cut episodes and dashed ambitions can be really felt in this set of episodes. But its ending may still land the parting blow that leaves a positive impression. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our awesome podcast art! Be sure to join the Scanline Media Discord  to discuss this episode and all our wo...

Ain't no breaks on this train! This time, we're taking on the infamous Super 17 Saga! And y'know, after our brief stint with worstdom at the beginning of the show, we've been really pleasantly surprised with how wrong everyone was! But what if I told you that that might... be at an end. Because these eps aren't exactly great. Thank you so much to @Merik_MERIMO  for our awesome podcast art! Be...
