Sparking Zero allows Dragon Ball fans to embark on various branching paths while playing through the story of Goku, Vegeta, and a few other Z warriors and villains.
But did you know that a few paths can lead you to Sparking! Episodes, each featuring original and fully animated what-if events? Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to unlock all of Vegeta’s branching paths and Sparking Episodes in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero.
How to unlock all of Vegeta’s branching paths in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero
Vegeta can unlock five main branching paths in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero. The paths can be triggered during the Super Vegeta, Vegeta’s Determination, A Desperate Bid for Time, Wind-Up Doll, and Vegeta’s Wicked Heart stages, with the latter two leading to the Parental Bond and Number One Spot Sparking Episodes. You can check out how to unlock each path below.

How to Unlock the Super Vegeta, Vegeta’s Determination, and A Desperate Bid for Time branching paths
To start, you can unlock all of Vegeta’s regular branching paths in Sparking Zero by defeating enemies he was not supposed to during the main storyline. More specifically, here’s how to unlock the branching paths for the Super Vegeta, Vegeta’s Determination, and A Desperate Bid for Time stages:
- Total Victory (Super Vegeta Branching Path): By defeating Perfect Cell within the time limit.
- A Strong Dad (Vegeta’s Determination Branching Path): By defeating Majin Buu before Vegeta makes the ultimate sacrifice.
- Saiyans: The Warrior Race (A Desperate Bid for Time Branching Path): By defeating Kid Buu within the time limit. It will unlock an extra Goku vs Vegeta fight.
How to unlock the Wind-Up Doll branching path and start the Parental Bond Sparking Episode
While fighting Android 18 as part of Wind-Up Doll, you can unlock the Parental Bond Sparking Episode by defeating her within the time limit. Like all enemies you are not supposed to defeat in the game, she will be extremely aggressive, so simply focus on entering Sparking! Mode and then on lowering her health by performing the well-known Violent Rush + Ultimate Blast combo.
After unlocking the episode, you can continue it by quickly lowering Trunks’ health to below one bar during Vegeta and Trunks. If you fail, an extra branch leading to the main path will be unlocked. You will know that you failed once Trunks mentions that showing his true power during the fight won’t mean a thing.
How to unlock the Vegeta’s Wicked Heart branching path and start the Number One Spot Sparking Episode
During Vegeta’s Wicked Heart, you can unlock the Number One Spot Sparking Episode in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero by selecting ”Shake off brainwashing”, which will cause Vegeta to resist Babidi’s spell. However, the ability to do so won’t be available from the get-go. Instead, you can unlock it by completing Preparing for the World Tournament without going below a set health value. In my case, I managed to do it by losing no more than 20% of my fifth health bar.
