The aforementioned Persona 4: Arena was obviously an adaption of the highly popular RPG franchise, but they also made a fondly remembered (yet also hilariously broken) Fist of the North Star/Hokuto no Ken fighting game back in 2005, as well as recent endeavors on the 3DS with both Dragon Ball and One Piece, including crossplay capability between the two. It's not like Arc System Works are strangers to adaptions, either. Then, you add Arc System Works to the mix, developers of serious pedigree with Guilty Gear, BlazBlue and Persona 4: Arena all being highly successful in their own right, and you combine their efforts for a Dragon Ball game, one of the biggest multimedia franchises in the entire world.

Mahoney said this is how she approached working on her latest series last winter - one small and luminous piece at a time, building on each interpretation of radiance to get to the next. I bring it forward, again and again, until one day the shroud of darkness begins to lift.” The process is slow and sometimes painful, digging for some small light to surface to the world, then going back in to find another source. “But I also turn inwards, searching deep within to find my inner light.
