Maybe that would explain the overwhelming amount of DBZ music videos put to Linkin Park songs. I never quite understood the association.

I've never heard that one before. Linkin Park. Pfft. :roll:
What's scarier than a DBZ H-game?

It's probably because most of LP's music suits the action and overall subject matter of the series. A lot of their lyrics seem to relate to Vegeta and Trunks in particular.

Yeah, cause they're angsty bishies. But I could as easily relate Linkin Park to Shinji in Evangelion, or Kenshin in Rurouni Kenshin.

Think of all the Tenshinhan videos there'd be if Tenshinhan was an important character in Dragonball! :D (Sorry, that was random, but think!)

I coulda sworn it's Linkin Park. No, honestly.
Err... Linkin Park (or rather, "Hybrid Theory") didn't even drop a proper mostly-current-lineup demo until 1999 (see Wikipedia entry). That dub began in 1996. It's just another Shuki Levy masterpiece.
Ahh Shuki Levy. Who was responsible for much of the music of shows that entertertained me during my childhood. Have to say that Linkin Park composing the song was the first time I heard anything like that.

While it -is- intro only footage, it makes sense considering Vegeta first turned into a Super Saiyan while training in outer space.

I thought that was supposed to be sarcastic

Well, it's yet another popular myth that I've broken free of, then.
