CROSS-CULTURAL PARALLELS

Where This Object Echoes

Japanese Manga1994

The archetype of a prideful antagonist performing a fatal, redeeming sacrifice for his family represents a cornerstone trope developed during the 1990s Shōnen Jump serialization era.

SET RELEASE & PRINT RUN

Bandai launched the Ultra God Mission 5 expansion in 2022 for the Super Dragon Ball Heroes arcade ecosystem in Japan. This specific set expanded the integration of 'Dramatic Art' (DA) cards, a rarity tier engineered to transpose specific 2D broadcast animation frames from the television series onto the card stock, diverging from the custom 3D-rendered character art that comprises the majority of the game's standard card pool.
