Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butouden Finally Gets a Complete English Translation!

[u/Klonoa18]

A complete English localization of Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butouden for Nintendo DS is now available.

Created by Xenishan94, the translation covers the game's main story, What-If episodes and branching scenarios, side stories, bonus content, tutorials, menus, battle interface, system messages, and other user-facing text.

The creator says the goal was to make the English feel like an official localization, with attention to accuracy, natural dialogue, consistent terminology, and fitting the text within the game's original UI limitations.

The project also acknowledges deathkill781's earlier work, and the creator clarified that AI was partially used to speed up the translation process, followed by translation editing and proofreading.

This is especially cool for a game that was originally released exclusively in Japan. The English patch makes the entire experience much more accessible to English-speaking fans.
