* ''Cell''

[[folder:Characters]]

** ''Franchise/SonicThehedgehog'' appears in a pre-fight intro for Vegeta. Zipping away as Vegeta enters into the battlefield. He also shows up if Goku wins in Super Sayian form, in ''his'' Super Form and challenges Goku to a race.

* AprilFools: A version of Jiren was released this day in 2018. He cannot take damage and will do nothing but meditate the entire match until his meter is completely full, at which point he grabs the opponent and throws them for a OneHitKO. Fighting him in versus turns into an UnwinnableJokeGame.

* BeamSpam[=/=]MoreDakka: Some characters with projectiles can do this to an extent, some more than others, but the king of this trope in regards to the others is Vegeta. He can tack on the most amount of non-super projectiles and expands his combo hit further with his super projectiles (the only other person who comes close is SS Goku and he achieves this through teleporting rather than raw beam spamming). The base version of his Galactic Gunfire has the players ButtonMashing and rotating the control stick to deliver more hits. His RAGE Mode is even more dedicated to this trope in which he must use his Ki Blasts and (Aerial) Machine Gun Temper very often (he gains an EX variation for his Aerial MGT too) to gain stronger finishers for his Galactic Gunfire while disabling some other moves (Power Charge, Dash Elbow, Zero Counters, and Wolverine Flip). His Majin counterpart does this too but only for his Super Move, "Machine Gun Tantrum" [[TheresNoKillLikeOverkill and "Cyan"/SSJGSSJ Vegeta fires at least twice as many Ki Blasts and/or hits twice as much/hard with his projectile-based Super Moves]].
* BreakingTheFourthWall: When charging his ki, Gotenks yells "Yeah, Hyper Dragon Ball Z!"

* BullyingADragon: [[TheCameo Bulma]] ([[FridgeLogic in her Dragon Ball appearance]]) occasionally shows up in (Majin) Vegeta's intros piloting a mech, [[SmallNameBigEgo either boasting about herself or outright talking the opponent down]] (though the "dragon" part of this trope only comes from when she's doing this to someone who clearly outclasses her in said mech). [[KickTheDog (Majin) Vegeta literally kicks her out of the fight when he shows up]], [[TheDogBitesBack but she will come back and lay it into him after he's won]].

* ExtremityExtremist: Gohan is a male KickChick, [[UpToEleven in spades]]. His UNLEASHED Mode even banks on his Omnikicks and both variations of the HurricaneKick (giving them substantial power boosts while they fill up the UNLEASHED gauge in return).

* FinalBoss: "Cyan" Goku or "Cyan" Vegeta are randomly selected as this once you've beaten everyone else before them (they're the two in their Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan forms). They're twice as fast on the ground than the originals, hit twice as hard or twice as much than usual, take half damage from all sources compared to everyone not named Mr. Satan, and possess an even higher super gauge that apparently fills up much faster than everyone else's. "Cyan" Goku uses SS Goku's moveset (due to SS Goku and Goku having different palette coding and sprites) and he can arbitrarily spam and abuse his "Zanzoken" and Pursuit Attacks unlike the original. "Cyan" Vegeta uses the stance and movement of Vegeta but combines the special movesets of Vegeta and Majin Vegeta and possibly the regular one (due to the two characters having the exact same palette coding and sprites, although human players controlling him are stuck with Vegeta's moveset), and as mentioned above all of his Ki-based attacks have been doubled in number and or hits. They also unleash a HurricaneOfPuns related to the color blue upon beating you.
** The Champ version replaces both with Golden Freeza. Unlike Cyan Goku or Vegeta, he cannot be controlled by the player if the selection screen is altered to include him, so he is always controlled by the CPU.

*** Goku has access to the Level 1 variant (this game's equivalent of the traditional Shinku Hadoken simply named "Kamehameha") and the Level 2 variant (a chargeable variation of the ''VideoGame/MarvelVSCapcom'' and ''TatsunokoVSCapcom'' appearances of the Shinku Hadoken named "Chou Kamehameha"). "Kamehameha" can be fired from the ground or the air, the grounded version can be angled at a diagonal trajectory upwards, the aerial version can only be fired at a downwards diagonal trajectory, and it deals five hits total. "Chou Kamehameha" naturally hits harder while retaining its grounded angling properties, can only be used on the ground, travels faster, and can be charged up from 20 hits base to 40 hits maximum (while also being flat-out unblockable at full charge and instantly firing). If playing with a partner, instead of using his other "Kaioken" finishers, he uses a supped up version of "Chou Kamehameha" that hits harder than before throughout all stages, dealing more damage than the other standard variants of "Chou Kamehameha".

* LongSongShortScene: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-xFTO1k_vU The victory theme.]] It's a nice track that really conveys the triumph over an opponent. As a result, it's brief but effective... and yet, it's just a bit too long for the actual victory screen it's used for. Because this game runs on the MUGEN engine, it gets cut off way before the theme ends as it transitions into the next match.

* NintendoHard: The AI in the game so far is said to be aggressive even on the easiest difficulty, but WordOfGod said they looking for a way to tone it down in an update.
** In fact, as with most M.U.G.E.N games, the difficulty setting is meaningless, due to each character having its AI coded individually.

* {{Sadist}}[=/=]OmnicidalManiac: Final Form Frieza and Majin Vegeta, natch. Bonus points go to Frieza's emotion system called SADISM which fills up with literally any attack as opposed to having to perform specific actions like the others. Both of them are different in regards to this trope.
** SoftSpokenSadist: Frieza's take on this trope, being the psychopath between him and Majin Vegeta. Shock Dingo's performance nails Frieza's personality perfectly.
---> ''"Black blood churns out of old wounds. This nightmare of yours has yet only begun..."''
---> ''"Ever heard millions of screams slowly silenced by a burning atmosphere? '''Do you want to?'''"''
---> ''"It's not like I'm a monster; I'll let you live long enough to see everyone you love '''die'''..."''
---> ''"Can you survive in deep space? You just might have to learn to..."''
---> ''"Take me to your leader. Hm...I reconsider that sentence; I instead will raze the planet until he presents himself."''
*** The above quotes are just ''some'' of his ''spoken'' lines. Babidi is no slouch in this department either.
** TheSociopath: Majin Vegeta's take on this trope, being the sociopath between him and Frieza. Unlike Frieza who may slowly degenerate into insanity, Majin Vegata is already balls off the wall crazy who can clear his mind of Babidi's influence.
* SmugSuper: SS Goku, if saying "You can't beat me" in his taunt was not obvious enough, and that's just his taunt too. Frieza and (Majin) Vegeta are naturally this.

* {{Troll}}: Frieza has slight shades of this in both of his walk animations (the "girly" forward walk and the "come hither" back walk), clearly showing that he's not taking things seriously and mostly wanting to rile you up.
* UnstoppableRage: Vegeta. His emotion system is literally called [[MeaningfulName RAGE]] Mode and focuses on {{Beam Spam}}ming. Majin Vegeta is this in his base form, but he somehow subdues it in his SANITY mode, clearing his mind of Babidi's influence and putting more focus into the fight.
* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Certain moves will kill the opponent on the last round if the move depletes their health. Of the characters present in the roster (finished or not) there's (SS(GSS)) Goku, Ultimate Gohan, (Majin (SS()GSS) Vegeta, Mr. Satan, Piccolo, and Gotenks. They know each other and any one of them can brutally kill each other (well, maybe except for Mr. Satan killing anyone but you get the point).

A beginning build of the game itself only included Goku, Vegeta, SS Goku, Mr. Satan, and the Saibamen; an updated EVO 2014 build replaced Mr. Satan and the Saibamen (who are still in the game as non playable characters.) with Ultimate Gohan and a beta build of Final Form Frieza, along with some new music for the existing stages and new stages. The "Majin Build" brought back Mr. Satan and included an updated Final Form Frieza along with new characters (Majin Vegeta and Babidi). Piccolo was then released on Christmas 2016, and was included with the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2Zqebj0Rp0 Champ Build]] along with various updates (including, as the name suggests, an overhauled Mr. Satan). Super Buu was then released on August 8th 2017. Gotenks came afterwards early in 2018. Tien Shinhan was released in December of that same year.

Soon to be released characters are Krillin, Android #18, Cell, Jiren, Goku Black and SSJ Vegeta.

''Hyper Dragon Ball Z'' is a freeware game developed from the ''{{VideoGame/MUGEN}}'' engine by fans of the anime dubbed "Team Z2". The gameplay focuses on the mechanics inspired by ''StreetFighter'' and ''VideoGame/{{Darkstalkers}}'' with other fighting games thrown into the mix (like ''VideoGame/MarvelVSCapcom'' and ''TheKingOfFighters''). Initially beginning as a simple brand of ''Dragon Ball Z'' characters to go against the traditional ''Dragon Ball Z'' characters introduced into M.U.G.E.N. so far (overly flashy, broken, suffering heavily from SturgeonsLaw, etc.), the Z2 team of Balthazar (idea conceiver) and Cybaster (primary coder) expanded to include various others, including inspiring some other smaller projects in the team's honor. It's come to the point that a game based on the Z2 characters was realized, and the roster expanded from Goku and Vegeta to many more.
